42: Fierce zombies
At the same time, on the ground of the Cave, large chunks of shadow churned violently Li Ke boiling water.
From the depths of the darkness, two massive figures could be vaguely seen colliding fiercely.
“Boom! Boom! Boom!”
Each impact caused the surrounding shadows to twist and boil even more violently, as if the darkness could be torn apart at any moment.
Boom!!!
Suddenly, from a viscous, writhing shadow, an abnormally pale and swollen arm shot out.
Immediately after, the middle-aged man from the Holy Meal Society burst out from the boiling shadows in a disheveled state!
At this moment, he had changed drastically.
His entire body was pale and swollen, and he had expanded several times over.
His body resembled a corpse that had been submerged in water for a long time, presenting a horrifying state of Undead, with a layer of deathly cold white Corpse Qi emanating from him Li Ke a cold mist.
“Boom!!!”
As soon as the middle-aged man rushed out of the shadows, another equally massive and terrifying arm, gleaming with a dull bronze hue, immediately stretched out from the swirling shadows behind him.
It firmly grabbed one of the middle-aged man's swollen arms!
A tremendous force pulled, attempting to drag him back into the pitch-black shadows.
However, the middle-aged man ignored it, continuing to charge forward madly!
“Pfft!”
Large chunks of pale, swollen flesh were brutally torn from his shoulder joint.
The severed end revealed his internal bones and fascia, which had already rotted and turned black.
His entire arm was actually torn off just Li Ke that!
However, the middle-aged man seemed to feel no pain, not even a frown.
Only after he had completely rushed out of the shadowed area did he suddenly stop, turn around, and look with apprehension at the still twisting and writhing shadows behind him.
A moment later, within those shadows, the darkness churned incessantly, vaguely revealing a tall, muscular silhouette that seemed to be cast from bronze.
“Your Excellency, who exactly are you?” The middle-aged man's voice was hoarse, filled with undisguised surprise and doubt.
“Our Holy Meal Society doesn't seem to have offended you, have we?”
As he spoke, the flesh at the severed joint of his torn shoulder wriggled and grew wildly Li Ke a living thing.
In just a few breaths, a new, pale, and swollen arm had regrown.
As a Clairvoyance of the Living Corpse Path, this level of injury was not much in itself.
But at this moment, the middle-aged man was cursing inwardly, “What the hell is this thing? Why can it suppress my Corpse Qi? This is an unknown Clairvoyance Path. Is it a force from another Empire?”
However, the bronze figure remained silent, completely unresponsive to his questioning.
Its massive body slowly sank, once again merging into the pitch-black shadows on the ground, disappearing without a trace.
Boom!!!
The next second, a patch of shadow not far from the middle-aged man exploded!
The bronze-cast figure once again lunged out, charging fiercely towards the middle-aged man with an unstoppable Aura!
But this time, the middle-aged man was prepared.
He let out a low roar, and his body erupted with white Corpse Qi.
His equally massive and bloated body did not dodge, but instead charged forward to meet the impact!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The two massive and heavy bodies, Li Ke two prehistoric beasts, collided and fought wildly in the Cave!
Each collision produced a dull, drum-Li Ke roar, shaking the entire Cave slightly, causing gravel to fall from the cave walls.
Large amounts of flesh and blood splattered, and blood flew everywhere!
The middle-aged man fully demonstrated the difficulty of Clairvoyance from the Living Corpse Path.
His terrifying regenerative ability made him almost immune to any harm.
Even if his body was torn open by the Undead's hard claws, or even if his internal organs were gouged out, he could quickly wriggle, regenerate, and recover in a very short time.
The scene, for a moment, seemed evenly matched.
However, the middle-aged man grew more and more alarmed as he fought!
His powerful Undead body, striking against the opponent's dull bronze armor, could only leave shallow white marks, unable to cause any substantial damage!
The opponent's defense was unbelievably solid!
And the Undead virus he secretly spread through his bodily fluids seemed to have no effect on the opponent either!
What frightened him even more was that with every collision and contact with that bronze body, he could clearly feel that the Origin of Corpse Qi within his body was being siphoned and absorbed little by little!
The battle continued for a moment, and the middle-aged man clearly began to fall into a disadvantage, the force of his every impact weakening, and his regeneration speed becoming slower and slower...
“Your Excellency! We have no grievances! Why must we fight to the death here?!”
He struggled to resist the Undead's ferocious tearing while attempting to communicate again.
“We have no intention of being your enemy!”
“If you retreat now, the Holy Meal Society can pretend nothing happened!”
“My Holy Meal Society has countless masters! They are spread throughout the Empire! If Your Excellency kills me today, are you not afraid of being hunted to the ends of the earth?!”
“Esteemed master! If there is anything you need, we can discuss it! Wealth! Women! Rare ingredients! I can satisfy you!”
The middle-aged man tried to make peace multiple times, his tone gradually shifting from initial shock and anger to a hint of pleading.
However, the bronze figure remained unresponsive, with only cold killing intent in its dark eye sockets.
The middle-aged man was completely desperate and had no choice but to grit his teeth and continue fighting to the death.
But his body grew weaker, the speed of his injury regeneration became slower, and his strength began to decline significantly...
Boom!!!
The Bronze Armor Corpse lunged again.
The middle-aged man, caught off guard, lost his balance, and his massive, bloated body was slammed back into a thick patch of shadows!
The shadows began to writhe and churn violently!
“No!!!”
A moment later, a cry filled with despair and unwillingness came from the depths of the shadows.
Then, the sound abruptly stopped, replaced by a scalp-tingling, bone-chilling gnawing sound...
Li Ke remained calmly seated in his chair, his fingertips lightly tapping the armrest, quietly enjoying the spectacular battle.
After the situation was decided, he turned his head to look at the entrance of the Cave.
At this moment, the Spirit boy and girl were Li Ke two white geckos, rapidly climbing and darting on the rock wall of the cave entrance in an extremely strange posture.
“Hehehe…”
“Giggle giggle…”
They continuously emitted innocent, childlike laughter, imbued with a chilling strangeness.
And on the ground at the cave entrance, a constantly writhing and twitching mass of white flesh lay collapsed.
Upon closer inspection, one could barely discern that it was another Clairvoyance of the Living Corpse Path from the Holy Meal Society.
After discovering that the werewolf had died and the strongest middle-aged Undead was also at a disadvantage, he immediately attempted to escape.
However, at this moment, his body was covered in wounds of all sizes, his limbs were severed at the root, turning him into a mass of flesh that could only wriggle and regenerate on the ground.
Whenever his limbs grew out a part, the Spirit Boy or Spirit Girl climbing on the wall would immediately pounce down and sever them again.
This cycle repeated, constantly consuming the Undead's terrifying regenerative power.
However, Li Ke also noticed that one of the Spirit Boy's arms showed an unnatural bend, and the Spirit Girl's delicate head had a small indentation and deformation on its side.
Clearly, they were not unscathed in this battle.
A moment later, in the depths of the Cave, the horrifying gnawing sound gradually disappeared.
Thud...
A shriveled, withered, and twisted dry corpse was casually thrown out from the shadows, falling onto the chaotic ground.
