Chapter 204 Overestimating one’s own capabilities
Suddenly, a cold wind blew past him from behind, lifting up a few fallen leaves on the ground.
There seemed to be a low moaning sound in the wind, sometimes coming and sometimes not.
"Here it comes..." Chen Yile said in his heart, and then he stopped abruptly.
The atmosphere around him suddenly froze, as if all sounds had disappeared, leaving only his own heartbeat.
At this moment, the camera on his head captured something strange.
In the upper right corner of the screen, there seemed to be a blurry shadow that flashed by quickly.
The barrage exploded immediately:
"what is that?!"
"Who was that shadow just now?!"
"I saw it! There really is something!"
Chen Yile frowned slightly.
Although his expression could not be seen in the live broadcast room, he knew that the audience must have also felt a little weird.
He did not rush to move forward, but slowly took out the talisman in his hand and held it tightly in his hand.
"Brother, what should we do?" Chen Shihua's junior brother's voice was trembling, and he obviously felt something unusual.
Chen Shihua said in a deep voice: "Don't panic, we will follow the plan." As he spoke, he took out a talisman from his arms and quickly stuck it on the dead tree.
The moment the talisman was affixed, a black smoke gushed out from the tree trunk.
It was as if countless vengeful spirits were struggling in it, and the screams were extremely shrill.
"Retreat quickly!" Chen Yile shouted, and quickly took a few steps back to create some distance.
At the same time, he threw another talisman into the air, muttering something.
The talisman burned rapidly in the air, transforming into a golden light that illuminated the surrounding darkness.
The black mist was dispersed by the golden light, and seemed to be in great pain, retreating one after another.
The audience in the live broadcast room has exploded:
"Oh my God! This is real! There's a ghost!"
"Brother Chen is awesome! He even used the talisman!"
"How terrifying! Why is this place so evil?"
Chen Yile looked ahead calmly, but he didn't relax in his heart.
He knew this was just the beginning. The real test was yet to come.
Just as he was about to continue exploring forward, suddenly, there was a violent vibration from the ground.
It was as if some huge monster was awakening underground, and the entire mass grave was shaking slightly.
"This is..." Chen Yile's heart sank suddenly.
Suddenly, a crack appeared in the ground and a black breath gushed out.
Accompanied by a strange laugh, it seemed as if something was stirring underground, ready to break out...
The black aura in the crack became stronger and stronger, and along with the weird laughter, the audience in the live broadcast room had already held their breath.
The comments were flashing rapidly, as if everyone felt the impending danger.
"Holy crap, the ground cracked?!"
"What the hell is this place? Something's really coming out!"
"Brother Chen, hurry up! Something doesn't feel right!"
But Chen Yile knew that it was too late to retreat now.
He stared at the crack, secretly planning his next move.
At this moment, the crack suddenly widened, and a rotten arm stretched out from it, as if trying to grab something.
Then, a tall and terrifying zombie suddenly crawled out from the ground.
The corpse was grayish white all over, and its skin had rotted away, revealing the purple bones and tendons underneath.
Its eyes were empty, but flashed with a strange red light.
The clothes on it were already tattered, but one could still vaguely recognize them as ancient costumes.
Chen Shihua's fellow apprentice's pupils suddenly contracted and he screamed in shock: "It's a zombie! This thing is not simple!"
Chen Shihua also looked solemn. He knew that the power of zombies was much stronger than that of ordinary vengeful spirits and ghosts.
Once this creature is formed, it is almost invulnerable to swords and guns, and ordinary magic weapons and talismans cannot cause any fatal damage to it.
The zombie let out a low roar, and the entire mass grave seemed to echo with its roar.
Then, it suddenly rushed towards Chen Shihua's junior brother at an astonishing speed, which was completely unlike the reaction of a rotting corpse.
Chen Shihua's fellow apprentice panicked and tried to cast spells to resist, but the power of the zombies was far beyond his expectations.
In an instant, he was hit in the chest by a zombie's punch, and the whole person flew out like a rag bag, hitting a tombstone heavily, and blood suddenly spurted out of his mouth.
"Junior brother!" Chen Shihua exclaimed, and without caring about the danger, he immediately rushed over to help his junior brother up.
The barrage in the live broadcast room exploded instantly:
"Oh my god, Brother Chen's friend was beaten away!"
"The power of this zombie is terrifying! That guy looks like he's dying!"
"This is getting serious! Brother Chen, retreat quickly!"
Chen Shihua's junior brother's face was pale and his breathing was rapid. It was obvious that he had been seriously injured.
He barely supported his body and said with difficulty: "Brother, be careful, this zombie... its power is too strong."
Chen Shihua gritted his teeth, feeling extremely anxious.
He understood that the current situation was extremely unfavorable. If they didn't find a way to control the zombies, they would probably not be able to leave here alive tonight.
The zombie did not give them a chance to breathe. It roared again and rushed towards Chen Shihua.
Chen Shihua quickly pulled out a dagger, the blade of which was engraved with complex runes and had a hint of golden light.
However, when the dagger hit the zombie's shoulder, it only made a sharp metal collision sound and did not even break its skin.
The zombie's power was too strong. With a wave of its hand, it forced Chen Shihua back a few steps.
It was about to grab Chen Shihua's arm. Its huge palm was covered with sharp nails. If it was caught, the consequences would be unimaginable.
"Chen Shihua, be careful!" Chen Yile acted decisively, chanting a spell, and quickly took out a demon-subduing pestle from his backpack and smashed it hard at the zombie.
As he moved, the demon-subduing pestle flashed with dazzling golden light and hit the zombie's back directly.
The zombie howled in pain, staggered a few steps, and temporarily stopped attacking Chen Shihua.
Chen Shihua took the opportunity to retreat quickly, putting some distance between himself and the zombies, while giving Chen Yile a look of gratitude.
"Thank you, Chen Yile. These zombies are too difficult to deal with." Chen Shihua wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, his tone revealing a hint of helplessness.
"Now is not the time to be polite," Chen Yile said in a deep voice, "We have to work together to solve this, otherwise we will all be buried here tonight."
The zombie was obviously enraged, its eyes became increasingly red, as if endless resentment was surging in its body.
It suddenly lowered its head, bent its body, and supported itself on the ground with its hands, as if gathering strength.
Immediately afterwards, the whole body suddenly lunged forward, at a speed even faster than before.
Chen Yile's mind was racing. He knew that relying on magic weapons alone might not be enough to completely subdue the zombie.
He gritted his teeth, quickly took out a few talismans from his bag, quickly made a few hand gestures, and then threw the talismans towards the zombies.
