Chapter 372 Stepping into Darkness Again
Chapter 372 Stepping into Darkness Again
Stepping into darkness once again,
The sunlight seemed to be suddenly cut off, and a gloomy darkness instantly enveloped Lin Fan.
But this time is different.
Last time, he was with a bunch of burdens, so no matter what he wanted to do, he had to think twice.
And now...
Without any burdens, he could act recklessly.
A black vortex of spiritual consciousness unfolded behind him.
Nabatae led his undead army out of the vortex.
In a short while, a fan-shaped aura spread out behind him, and at the same time, a thick gray-white soul energy began to spread outwards.
Upon seeing these spirits again, Lin Fan could clearly sense the changes in them.
Yesterday, these undead warriors were pale gray and their movements were unpredictable.
And today...
The soul fire on the undead presented before him had not only become much more solid, but its color had also changed from grayish-white to a cold light with a hint of eerie green.
Of these, Nabatay has undergone the most significant changes.
At this moment, Lin Fan could sense that its aura was at least twice as strong as yesterday's.
Even the jagged, serrated dagger in the opponent's hand was now wreathed in visible gray-green flames.
Previously, in the mental space, he simply sensed that the other party had grown, but he never expected that they had grown so much.
"The upgrade effect... is it really that obvious?"
Seeing the changes in Nabatai, Lin Fan was secretly shocked.
But he quickly snapped out of his reverie.
Just now, he sensed that at the moment Nabatay and the other undead appeared, many indescribable things also surged in from all directions in the Black Forest.
In just a short while, nearly a hundred black figures appeared in the woods not far in front of them.
Seeing this, Lin Fan didn't need to say anything more. He simply took a step back, his meaning quite clear.
Upon seeing this, Nabataeus revealed a ferocious smile on the withered, tree-bark-like face of the mummy.
"kill."
Without any unnecessary words, it uttered a disinfecting sound and charged towards the surging shadows with its blade raised...
The enormous figure in the tattered robe left behind trails of afterimages like mist, and in the next moment, it suddenly appeared in front of the two dark figures at the forefront.
then……
With a swift motion, the knife fell without the slightest hesitation.
puff-
With two sounds like tearing cloth, the two dark figures also shattered.
"Good heavens!"
This sudden scene left Lin Fan speechless with emotion.
"This level upgrade really wasn't completely without effect!"
Just as he was marveling at this, the undead warriors scattered behind him, upon witnessing Nabatae annihilate two dark figures with a single strike, all went berserk, raising their seemingly inferior, rusty weapons...
In an instant, a cold wind blew, and countless undead creatures, like a pack of wolves spotting prey, rushed toward the emerging shadows.
The sounds of fighting, like the wailing of ghosts and howling of wolves, rang out.
Puff puff--
chi chi-
Black smoke continued to rise from all around, and before the smoke could completely dissipate, Nabatae and his undead army began to frantically absorb the black mist...
however,
Compared to yesterday, these emerging shadows now seem endless.
No matter how much Nabatae and its spirits slaughtered, the depths of the forest remained in a state of constant activity.
Waves of shadowy figures surged forward, and wave after wave of the undead army met them.
The dissipated black smoke was methodically absorbed by King Nabataean, and the other undead soldiers also underwent visible changes as they were gradually consumed...
Gradually, the stiff, undead souls' fire grew even more intense, and their movements became much faster...
Lin Fan, watching from behind, observed all of this.
But then a ridiculous thought popped into my head.
just like……
He didn't come here to solve the problem at all, but rather...
I'm here to help my underlings clear dungeons!
This dark forest is like a dungeon, and those shadowy figures are like walking experience packs.
This... is really a bit far-fetched.
Since he didn't need to lift a finger, Lin Fan was happy to relax and follow the advancing group forward.
But after walking for a short while, he noticed a faint light flashing in the woods on his right.
It wasn't a bright light, but rather a beam of light similar to that of a flashlight, swaying and flickering, as if someone were waving it around aimlessly.
Seeing this, Lin Fan narrowed his eyes.
"Nabatay, clean up this area thoroughly. I'm going to check over there..."
He gave a briefing to Nabatay, who was still engaged in a frenzied killing spree, and then walked toward the light.
As they drew closer, the light grew ever more intense.
He soon saw the starting point of the light.
It was a person, and a living person at that.
Four living people were leaning against a tree trunk.
A man was sitting on the ground, leaning against his companion, holding a flashlight in his hand, but his wrist strength was obviously not enough, and the beam of light swayed on the ground for a long time without moving.
Are they from Raccoon City?
Soon, Lin Fan noticed that the four men were wearing the same equipment as the Raccoon City patrol team.
Seeing this, Lin Fan subconsciously walked out of the woods.
click-
"Who?"
The sudden, slight sound immediately startled the four men, who raised their guns and aimed them in their direction as if they were startled birds.
The four were slightly taken aback when they saw that he was alive. Then, one of them seemed to recognize Lin Fan and subconsciously got up.
"Young Master Lin??"
Wow, you still recognize me?
Hearing the other person call him by his name, Lin Fan was slightly surprised and carefully looked at the other person.
He quickly recognized the man.
He had seen this man before in the squad led by Night Owl; I think his name was something like "Hound."
"Are you the Night Owl's team sent in to search for Domingo?"
"Yes, Young Master Lin, we are here on orders to rescue Bishop Domingo..."
"How many of you came in?" Lin Fan approached and sized up the group.
There were eight of us who came in.
The man gasped for breath, his face filled with fear, and said, "But we got lost after we came in, and there's no way out of this place..."
"You weren't attacked by the shadowy figures?" Lin Fan asked, staring at the group.
Upon hearing his words, the four men's faces changed color simultaneously, revealing deep fear.
But the hound shook its head:
"We encountered those shadowy figures, but they didn't attack us; they just kept lingering around us."
They weren't attacked?
Hearing this answer, Lin Fan was slightly surprised, and his gaze subconsciously swept over the group of people again.
indeed,
Although the four looked somewhat disheveled, they showed no signs of injury.
And judging from the looks of it, nothing was taken away.
But that's a bit strange!
When Domingo and the others encountered those shadowy figures, they charged at them without saying a word...
Why are they treated differently when it's their turn?
That doesn't make sense.
Although he had some doubts, he looked at the group and said:
"Alright, you guys pack your things and come with me later."
"Very good!"
Upon hearing Lin Fan's words, the faces of the group lit up with joy.
