Little Sorcerer, Divine Doctor-Chapter 812 - 305: Taiyuan Zombie

A wave of slaughter swept through, and the Skeleton Zombie was killed by the Hou Qin Warriors.

When it was chopped down, the corpse turned into a pool of pus, emitting a foul odor.

Lan and the others had returned, but due to the dense trees and vegetation in the forest, they dared not venture further.

"Crown Prince, it’s not good, Liu Wu can’t hold on,"

Liu Wu was the Hou Qin Warrior who was injured by the Zombie Warrior.

Although his bleeding had stopped, the wound on his severed hand had changed color; the zombie poison was seeping into other parts of his body, and soon he would become devoid of humanity like the Zombie Warrior, unrecognizable to even his closest kin.

Lan and the others stood aside, solemn expressions on their faces.

Dugu Xiu guarded beside the warrior, saying nothing.

"Crown Prince, I have no other request, but a wish for death," Liu Wu showed a faint, bleak smile,

Rather than becoming a zombie that harms other brothers, he would prefer to die now.

"Any solution?" Dugu Xiu asked Yun Sheng without raising his head.

Faced with such a situation, Yun Sheng was also despondent, but she was powerless; she had never encountered zombie poison before and had no available medicinal herbs on hand.

Silence was the best answer.

Dugu Xiu hung his head, and the other six Hou Qin Warriors had reddened eyes.

Madam Bi also wore a face of gloom.

These people were brothers who had fought through life and death, and it was too cruel for Dugu Xiu to do it with his own hands.

"Liu Wu, I, Dugu Xiu, promise you that as long as I’m here, your family will never want for anything," Dugu Xiu suddenly stood up and drew his heavy sword.

With a dull thud, the sound of the skull shattering, Liu Wu closed his eyes forever.

Dugu Xiu’s face showed no signs of grief, but his hand holding the heavy sword trembled slightly.

As the Iron-blooded Crown Prince of Hou Qin, Dugu Xiu had to be ruthless and unfeeling in such circumstances.

Since zombie toxin was contagious, Dugu Xiu asked Lan to burn Liu Wu’s corpse with fire.

The weapons of the warriors who had earlier killed the National Zombie Warrior were also reforged with fire.

Since the Zombie Mage escaped, the group dared not venture further into the depths of the forest.

After some discussion, everyone decided to retrace their steps.

That night, no one slept well, and they still hadn’t found a way out.

Everyone speculated about what happened in the forest that night, and what caused the warrior and the mage to end up in such a state.

In the latter half of the night, a mournful sound echoed through the forest, as if some beast was moving around.

"Enemy attack," Ye Beiming suddenly sat up.

The others all got up too, and when they saw the scene before them, everyone’s scalp tingled as a chilling fear crept upon them.

The sound came from the trees, and upon closer inspection, the previously empty trees were now filled with birds resembling Night Owls.

Their appearance was like that of the Zombie Warrior and the Zombie Mage during the day, half rotting flesh and half skeleton.

Without feathers, their bodies burned with a strange green flame, akin to ghostly fire.

In the dark, the clusters of ghostly flames were reminiscent of eerie ghost lights in a cemetery, quite terrifying.

"Ji ji," on a tree directly ahead, the mage who fled during the day was gazing at them with a sinister look.

With a wave of his Magic Wand, a green Magic Fire Wall surged from the ground, forming a ring of fire that encircled all seventeen of them.

Lan chanted, trying to extinguish the Magic Fire Wall with Ice Magic.

Little did she know, Ice Magic Power had no effect on the bizarre fire wall; the flames continued to burn fiercely.

Beside her, a female Mage screamed as she brushed against the green Fire Wall.

Just a bit of flame, and in the blink of an eye, her body underwent a rapid transformation.

Her flesh quickly rotted away, revealing skeletal remains, soon transforming into a Zombie Mage herself.

She leapt up, standing alongside the zombie on the tree.

The female Mage was an Earth Mage, and upon turning into a zombie, she quickly pierced several Earth Spurs.

To everyone’s horror, her Earth Spur carried the effect of zombie poison.

The fierce fire advanced step by step, as no one dared to rush out of the fire wall, and they’d also need to be wary of the omnipresent Earth Spurs.

"Damn it, what on earth is that thing?" Madam Bi grumbled, narrowly escaping several Earth Spurs; she didn’t want to end up like that zombie female Mage, neither human nor ghost.

"Little Wildcat, follow me," Ye Beiming’s gaze intensified, the situation urgent, he needed to make a judgment swiftly.

The chance of breaking through not only concerned his life, but Yun Sheng’s as well.

In an instant, Ye Beiming reacted, his right arm trembled as a sharp fighting spirit tore the green zombie fire apart.

He then stomped hard, shielding Yun Sheng behind him, enveloping himself in a layer of cold fighting spirit.

The zombie fire was torn open by the wind, creating a gap just large enough for two to pass through.

He grabbed Yun Sheng and headed towards the gap in the fire.

As for the others, he showed little concern.

Dugu Xiu saw this and was undeterred, his body surged with a dark fighting spirit, and he extended his hand to protect Madam Bi.

He leapt high, reaching dozens of meters without using Fighting Energy Wings, clearing the fire wall with ease.

Yun Sheng, held by Ye Beiming, worried about Qi and Senior Sister Lan.

As they were about to cross the fire wall, Yun Sheng’s eyelid twitched.

"Not good," Yun Sheng keenly sensed a surging Earth Magic Wave.

The zombie female Mage had begun chanting, several zombie poison-laden Earth Spurs breaking through the ground.

If this continued, both Yun Sheng and Ye Beiming would be pierced; barely hesitating, Yun Sheng broke free of Ye Beiming’s hand and pushed him forcefully away.

Her body, driven by the strong momentum, fell into the zombie fire.

The zombie fire closed again, swallowing Yun Sheng in its green flames.

"Yun Sheng," Ye Beiming’s heart shuddered.

Fear turned into cold despair, invading his entire being, hostility engulfing Ye Beiming like a relentless flood.

In an instant, his gray eyes surged with a bloodthirsty killing intent, scales bursting forth on his arm.

Seeing Yun Sheng fall into the fire, Dugu Xiu also froze in shock, shoving Madam Bi aside to rush into the flames to save Yun Sheng.

Just then, Dugu Xiu’s eyes halted, his body ready to jump into the fire suddenly stopped.

He thought he was mistaken, as there was a splash of red in the rekindled zombie fire.
