The Journey of the Demon Hunter

Chapter 1631

"I'm sorry, sir, but... please help me! My uncle needs help, he... If there is a carriage, I can find him immediately... ....."

Zelin held his forehead, put his right foot down first, stepped on a solid ground, and then slowly left the carriage. He heard the restless voice of a young woman.

"Liya! You should go back to the town immediately. This carriage can carry you out of this dangerous land as soon as possible." Then came a young but stubborn voice: "Don't be angry, travel. Well, we intercepted you to warn you. Don’t go any further. There are only ruins and resurrected corpses to the south. A group of corpses occupy the plain between the old town and New Tristram. You’d better go west right away. Go, avoid the old ruins, and go to the east gate of New Tristram."

Zelin walked around the carriage and saw three guards and a young girl in a red jacket and brown leather pants standing in front of the carriage. Varif stared at them with wide eyes and angrily. One of the three guards was wearing a Wearing a pale red cloak, like a leader.

"What's the matter?"

Zelin walked between them, Varif lowered his head, and rubbed his eyes irritably with his right hand on his forehead.

"I've been looking into the distance just now, but this little girl and these three good soldiers suddenly rushed out of the bushes on the side of the road, and my horseshoe almost kicked their heads!" The businessman waved his hands vigorously, and he took a few deep breaths. Slowed his tone: "I'm sorry, but you almost killed everyone! I am grateful to you for warning me that there are zombies everywhere. We just came out of the zombies. What happened to New Tristram? Zombies? Is it still blocked by the fence?"

"But what if there is a carriage, Captain Dalton?" The young girl ignored Varif's words: "If there is a carriage, I can immediately escape to New Tristram after saving my uncle... .."

"Don't think about it, Liya." Captain Dalton patted Liya on the shoulder: "No one can survive an explosion like this. All you have to do is to get back to a safe place as soon as possible and wait for the garrison to deal with this **** thing. Corpse. We will enter the cathedral, lead all the zombies into the cathedral, and then lock them inside. We will look for your uncle, but I can’t guarantee anything."

With that said, the man called Dalton looked at Varif and Zelling: "I am Dalton, the guard of New Tristram. Not long ago, a meteorite fell in the cathedral in the old town. I am. Come here with my people to investigate the relationship between the meteor and the resurrection of the dead. We came around from the east. There are very few zombies there. You can go to New Tristram from there. Bring her and she will point you to Way!"

"Wait, Dalton. Your name is Dalton, isn't it?" Zelin stepped forward. He had just recovered from his injuries, and he almost hit the car again: "How many soldiers do you have? There are many in the north. Zombies, they seem to be moving to the south. To the north, there are hordes of mutant spiders and Kazra. Your people cannot stay in the wilderness. If there are not enough, you will soon be overwhelmed by zombies. ."

"Thank you for your kindness, but we must find an opportunity to avoid zombies from attacking New Tristram." Dalton waved his hand firmly. There was a hoarse roar from the nearby forest, and other people looked around. One figure after another gradually appeared in the shadow of the forest.

The zombies nearby were attracted by the sound of carriages.

"Go away!" Dalton urged, his voice eager: "Traveler, tell Mayor Holmes." As he said, he raised his head and looked up the hillside, where the towering cathedral on the top of the hillside was billowing with smoke: "Take advantage of this. With this time, strengthen the walls and gates as soon as possible. If we do not return within two days, we will call in new guards and appoint a more suitable commander."

Chapter 2638: Liya's Story

"Are you okay?"

Seeing the carriage re-moving and turning to the right, Zelin looked at the young girl who squeezed into the back seat of the carriage: "Although I don't know why you are so anxious, the captain of the guard is right. No one knows. When something happens, it’s better to hide in a safe place first, wait until you calm down, and then consider what to do next."

The young girl covered her face with her hands and her elbows on her knees: "Sorry, but...I, I just, I understand that there is no way to get into the dungeon of the cathedral now, but I believe my uncle is sure Still alive."

"Varif and I saw that meteorite. What the **** is going on?" Zelin looked around. After the carriage drove off the trail, it passed through a woodland and quickly drove into the open clearing. You can see some killed zombies in the clearing, and more zombies are squatting beside the corpses, eating carrion: "What's your name?"

"Lia." Her voice was low: "Uncle Kane and I traveled to Kanduras. He wanted to find ancient scrolls in the cathedral and solve some mysteries. But, who would have thought that a meteor would fall on? In the cathedral..."

"Kane?" Zelin raised his eyebrows. In the past few days, he heard the surname: "Is it Deca Kane?"

"Do you know Uncle Kane?" Liya looked at Zelin unexpectedly.

"I heard that this businessman, Varif, he knew Kane, he knew him 20 years ago." Zelin pointed his thumb behind him: "Wait, you mean, Kane is in danger. ?"

"Yes, but I don't think that uncle will be in danger. He must be trapped somewhere. In the past, Uncle Kane and I encountered more dangers when exploring ancient ruins, but we were all fine. I'm back, this time too." Liya sighed, retracted her gaze, interlaced her fingers to support her chin, and looked worriedly at the ancient cathedral at the top of the foothills in the distance: "The meteor pierced the floor of the cathedral. , Uncle Kane fell into the dungeon below the cathedral. If then I could... can drag him to escape faster..."

The meteorite hit the cathedral. Zelin looked at the silhouette of the cathedral in the dark night. The craftsmanship of this building is very high and it was hit by a meteorite, but most of the structure was not damaged and it still stands on the mountain peak.

But who can survive being hit like this?

At the scene of the meteorite impact, Liya can be called a miracle if she can survive.

"It's not your fault. No one can predict this kind of thing. You'd better go back and tell your family and tell them about Kane..."

"I have no family. Uncle Kane is my only relative." Liya wiped the corner of her eyes and turned her head away, but there was not much pain in her voice. Perhaps she accepted this a few years ago: " My mother's name is Adria, from Tristram. After giving birth to me, she gave me to Gillian, the local tavern maid. After the city was destroyed, Gillian took me to Kartim Life. Later...she went crazy. After Uncle Kane found me, I lived with him. He thought it was past experiences that drove Gillian crazy, just like those experiences might have killed him. My biological mother."

"Sorry."

"It's nothing."

At this time, Zelin had time to take a look at Liya's appearance.

She is very thin, with slender limbs and lively appearance. Some parts of her body have developed beyond her peers, full of youthful vitality. Her hair is short and trimmed extremely irregularly. The long hair on her forehead rolled to the right side of her cheek, slightly covering her right eye. She was wearing a dark red thin cotton jacket. The jacket was stained with a lot of dust and the color was dim. It is estimated that she hasn't changed into new clothes for a long time. Under the jacket is a slanted leather skirt fastened with a belt. The right side of the skirt reaches to the base of the thigh, and the left side of the skirt covers above the knee. But on the right corner, another piece of brown cloth was wrapped, blocking the base of the leg. Below the skirt are brown tight leather pants that cling to the thighs, and the lower ends of the leather pants are tucked inside long-barreled moccasins.

"Thanks to you and the captain of the guard for reminding." Zelin changed the subject: "Your eyes must be very good. It may be difficult for ordinary people to see a galloping carriage in the forest from such a distance. You are Born, or acquired through training?"

He asked this question subconsciously.

All this is too sudden. The man who suddenly rushed to the side of the road to intercept the carriage came from the cathedral on the top of the mountain. In the dark night, the demon hunter couldn't be sure, whether his vision could penetrate the woods below, and in the gloomy night he could see the carriage below galloping. He was very curious about what kind of power this world has. This can't be born, otherwise the humans here would be too dangerous.

"Sorry, I didn't mean to deliberately let your carriage almost destroyed... I sometimes, I..."

Her hand was slightly clenched into a fist, loosened, and clenched again. After a few seconds, she seemed to force herself to let go: "I just sometimes...become irrational when I'm nervous."

"I'm not referring to this." Zelin said, "At least the carriage can still carry us to New Tristram. Varif and I are not injured. That's enough."

"I'm looking for a weapon." Liya said slowly: "Captain Larton wants to take people into the cathedral to prevent more resurrected dead from crawling out of the church. I want to go with them, Larton The captain thought I had no weapons and could not protect myself. But I was carrying a weapon, a black sword, and when the meteor fell, the sword was exploded and flung out, and I saw it fell on the northern hillside. That’s why I thought of going down to the foot of the mountain to look for weapons, and I just happened to see you."

Black weapons?

"I also really want a black blade, I think it looks very good." Zelin didn't know if there was any black metal in this land, so he asked tentatively: "You are in Xin Cui Sturm has lived for several days, do you know that there is something for sale here?"

"It's impossible." Liya shook her head: "Uncle Kane has walked through many places in the world. He has never seen a weapon as peculiar as that sword. My shortbow was lost with that sword. When I buy a new weapon, I'm going to the underground of the cathedral. Uncle Kane must be alive."

Zelin fell silent.

When the sun of dawn passed through the foothills in the distance and dropped the light on the dirt opened by the zombies that broke out of the ground, Zelin felt that the speed of the carriage under him had slowed down a bit.

"We're here." Varif's weary voice came: "New Tristram...God, this is not what I expected."

The 2639th chapter alone seduces the enemy

The morning light shone on the dilapidated walls of New Tristram.

Outside the wall, the heads were crowded, and the deceased in ragged clothes dragged his broken and stiff legs, stretched out his arms like wooden sticks with only bones, and hobbled closer to the outer wall of the town, with dull and suppressed roars one after another.

In the open space outside the town, large or small, bloated or thin zombies crowded every corner. There is a river on the right side of the town. The river is sunken in a beach full of gravel and mud. There are many reeds growing by the river. There is a single-plank bridge in the narrowest place. The bridge looks extremely weak, and the black river water is on the bridge. The next flowed quietly. The terrain on the other side of the bridge suddenly rises, hidden behind the shadow of the willow forest.

Something destroyed the single-plank bridge. Two corpses lay beside the bridge, and seven zombies squatted beside the corpses, gorging themselves.

The town is located by the river, and on the other side is a hill. Only in front of it is a wooden gate and a fence made of wooden stakes and fences. Outside the fence is a deep trench dug out by hand, and sharp sharp rises stand in the gully. Wood thorns. It was filled with fallen zombies, pierced by wooden stakes. Some zombies haven't completely died yet, and their limbs are still twitching unconsciously.

"They took away the wooden planks outside the city gate."

The carriage stopped behind a bush. There are two unconscious zombies here, and Zelin solved them.

"There are too many monsters here, too close to Old Tristram. Uncle Kane said that many people have died there." Liya stood behind a poplar tree, hiding under a low-hanging branch, holding her left hand. The trunk of the tree, sticking out his head to look at the scene outside New Tristram. It was dark under the tree, and the demon hunters hoped that this would help them avoid the zombies. If these zombies really rely on rotten eyeballs to search for their prey: "There are resurrected corpses outside. They can't open the door to welcome us in."

"And I dare say that as long as we drive the carriage close, the nearby zombies will follow us. At that time, if the guards on the wall don't throw arrows at us, we must thank Akarat for blessing." Varif's voice was leisurely, sitting beside the carriage. Tobacco stuffed into the pipe. After experiencing the initial fear and panic, the traveling merchant quickly recovered his calm. He has experienced so many weird things in his business career, and the resurrection of the dead is only the most common part: "Little girl, don't worry, when the old town of Tristram turned into a sea of ​​flames, Kane survived. A barbarian rescued him from the town. He is a wise man and will not die so easily. You should take care of yourself before he returns. Do you know there is another way to go?"

"I'm afraid not. There is a river to the south and east of New Tristram, and a cliff to the west. On the cliff is a path leading to the outside world. It is on the opposite side." Leah shook her head, raised her hand, and pointed her index finger to the city. The uphill road on the other side of the door: "But there is only one city gate in New Tristram. I don't know where else to go in."

"And the town won't last long." Zelin sat cross-legged on the ground, polishing the blade with a whetstone: "The ditch is very shallow. When night falls, the remaining zombies can step on the pierced corpses of the same kind. , Go knock on the wooden door of the town."

As he said, he put down the whetstone and raised the blade. The sunlight from the canopy shone on the sword, reflecting cold light.

"We have to do something." Liya worriedly looked at the direction of the city gate: "There are too many zombies here. I have seen it in my uncle's diary. When the devil invaded Kanduras, I was terrified. King Leoric, under the control of King Diablo, secretly executed his queen Sihira. After death, the maids of Queen Sihira were resurrected and turned into corpses. They will keep making new zombies."
