1820 Survivors in a difficult situation (1)
No matter how he thought about it, the scene that Tang Zhen described was somewhat inconceivable.
It was impossible to create a corpse with just imagination.
However, in view of Tang Zhen’s previous performance, everyone had no choice but to be suspicious and let their imaginations run wild.
If the truth was really as Tang Zhen had said, then it would definitely be a shocking matter!
This kind of ability to create things out of thin air was probably something that only the legendary top-notch artisans could barely do.
However, everyone knew that the Barbarian who died couldn’t even be compared to an artisan apprentice, let alone a top-tier artisan.
Although he was also a cultivator, his strength was ordinary and couldn’t be displayed on stage.
No matter how they thought about it, this was something that the barbarians couldn’t do, and it was also the reason why everyone was puzzled.
“Tang Zhen, you said that this corpse was created by the deceased. What exactly is going on?”
As the situation developed, Leah felt more and more confused, and she gradually couldn’t keep up with Tang Zhen’s thoughts.
What was in front of her now was a completely different world from the past, which made her feel nervous and excited.
If someone else had asked this question, Tang Zhen might have replied perfunctorily. However, Leah had helped him a lot. He naturally had to answer her.
actually, I’m just guessing because this is a cultivation system that I’ve never seen before. To be more accurate, it’s more appropriate to call it an innate magical ability!
Leah frowned slightly, as if she didn’t understand what an innate divine ability was. It might just be a cultivation culture.
“The so-called innate divine ability is actually the innate ability of a certain creature, but it has the magical effect of communicating with the laws of heaven and earth.
The advantage of this divine power was that it could suppress those who didn’t possess it. It could be said that it was impossible to guard against.
It’s like the difference between a bird and a beast. The ability to fly is the divine ability of a bird, and a beast can’t compare to it. ”
Leah nodded her head as if she understood. She pointed at the two corpses on the ground and asked Tang Zhen, so, the innate divine ability of this unknown existence is to copy corpses to kill people? ”
Tang Zhen nodded and then shook his head.
“Its innate ability should be to use the memories of the dead to attack the people closest to it. The known method is to imitate a corpse.
During this process, the victim’s spirit would be threatened, and their blood essence would be completely drained.
&Nbsp; the blood essence would not disappear, but would form the corpses that one would see and then take the life of the person being attacked.
If you don’t believe me, you can check the barbarian’s body. I’ve observed him, and he’s actually an empty sh.e.l.l now.”
It could be said that as long as one was targeted by such a monster, the prelude to death had already been pulled open. The moment one felt that something was wrong, the death countdown would already begin.
Earlier, Tang Zhen had been monitoring the survivors. However, he was still unable to discover the source of this strange energy. This caused him to be puzzled.
However, after examining hei san’s body, he also understood why he could not find anything unusual after monitoring for a long time.
These two corpses, with completely different appearances and bodies, actually belonged to the same person. No wonder he had not noticed anything unusual before.
Just as Tang Zhen and Leah were conversing, the remaining three men had dazed expressions on their faces, as if they had lost their minds.
In a short period of time, two people had been killed by a strange power, but they had not felt anything.
The thought that their names might appear on the list of deaths caused them to lose their composure.
“Weren’t you able to protect us? why did the Barbarian die?”
One of the men among the three suddenly opened his mouth. His blood red eyes glared at Tang Zhen while his tone carried a trace of questioning.
Tang Zhen frowned slightly. However, before he could speak, someone by the side angrily rebuked,”Shameless! When did Sir Tang Zhen say that he would protect you? First, you stole the seven-colored Sea Dragon, and then you tried to harm him in private. If it wasn’t for Sir Tang Zhen’s magnanimity, would you still be alive?”
Hearing the survivor’s scolding, the man’s eyes widened and his mouth opened. In the end, he let out a sigh and sat on the ground, unable to say a word for a long time.
As for his accomplices, all of them had ashen expressions on their faces.
Even though their hearts were filled with unwillingness, everyone’s att.i.tude was clear. The two of them were now a burden. It was already good enough that they were not killed.
The facts had already proven Tang Zhen’s conjecture. This monster would search for its target based on the memories of the previous victim. If the three of them were killed, the attack would most likely end.
Even at this moment, there were already some survivors who were indignant, and they looked at them with extremely unfriendly gazes.
I think we should just drive them away. We might lose our lives if we stay with them!
I think it’s possible. After all, they are the ones that the monster is chasing. It has nothing to do with us.
“It’s fine to drive them away, but the exit here has been sealed. Where can they go? Aren’t we still in the cave?”
“Then we might as well just kill the three of them. That way, it might be over. It’ll save everyone a lot of trouble.”
“That’s not reliable. How do you know that the monster can’t deal with us?
If we leave the three of them here, we can buy some time. Perhaps it won’t be long before someone opens the entrance to the cave.”
The crowd gathered together and discussed in low voices. However, even though they had lowered their voices, the three men could still hear them clearly.
However, their faces were numb, as if they were made of clay or wood. It was as if the survivors were not talking about them at all.
Nothing was more sorrowful than a dead heart. This was their current situation. Perhaps they had already decided that they would die without a doubt.
Tang Zhen coughed softly when he saw the emotions of those survivors becoming increasingly agitated. He indicated for everyone to remain quiet.
“Things haven’t gotten out of hand yet. What you need to do now is to stay united as much as possible. Don’t get into a mess.
If that’s the case, then it’ll give the enemy an opportunity.”
After hearing Tang Zhen’s words, the survivors hesitated for a moment, but no one raised any objections.
Trapped in the cave, and now constantly facing the threat of monsters, it could be said that they had both internal and external troubles.
If they didn’t unite under such circ.u.mstances, they would only give the monsters the opportunity to attack them one by one. By then, no one would be able to leave alive.
After seeing that everyone was silent, Tang Zhen looked at the three men and let them follow him into the guest room.
At the same time, Leah and a few other artisans entered the room and shut the door tightly.
No one knew what they were discussing inside. Although some survivors expressed their dissatisfaction and felt that they should not hide anything from them, they did not dare to show it.
After about half an hour, three men came out of the house and sat in the crowd without saying a word.
Tang Zhen and Leah came out for a walk before sitting on the chairs. They seemed to have entered a state of cultivation.
After seeing that Tang Zhen did not say anything, everyone softly conversed for a while. After which, they could only follow the previous arrangement. One group would continue to be in charge of defense while the other group would rest.
As for hei San and man Zi’s bodies, they were buried with stones to prevent any more accidents.
Everything seemed to have returned to its original state. In the dark environment, everyone was on guard against the monster’s attack while anxiously waiting for help to arrive.
