I made myself the protagonist

Chapter 216
"It's not an option to go on like this. We don't have a car in the wilderness. Even if we run, we may not be able to make it before dawn. Why don't we deal with that guy outside first?" Wei Chongming lowered his voice and whispered to the other companions.

"I agree." Xiaolong cracked his joints, glanced at the outside environment, and said with a sneer, "I want to see what is on the roof."

Shen Tinglan glanced at Su Li beside him, and quickly assigned a battle plan.

In the end, Hubert stayed in the car and was responsible for protecting Su Li and Lin Qing; Shen Tinglan, Xiaolong, and Wei Chongming nodded to each other after getting ready.

"3-2-1!"

Shen Tinglan gave an order, and the three quickly pushed the door out and jumped out of the car.Wei Chongming conjured up a psionic gun and aimed it at the roof of the car.Even though it was just a short glance, it was enough to make him startled: under the moonlight, there was a female corpse with disheveled hair and a rotting face lying on the roof of the car.

The long white dress on her body was covered with dark black stains, and on her face covered by the thick long hair, there were a pair of empty black eye sockets, staring at her direction.

The moment he landed, Xiaolong had a surprised look on his face.After hearing other movements from outside the car, the female corpse jumped up from the roof of the car and quickly crawled along the asphalt road.Its ten sharp claws penetrated deeply into the ground, and its movements were also extremely flexible.

The crisis in front of him was not resolved. Xiaolong landed on one knee and pressed hard on the asphalt road with both hands.

At the same time, the three of Hubert felt the body tremble violently, and vines as thick as arms broke out from under the road, and swept around the female corpse, wrapping it like a silkworm chrysalis.

The vines lifted the cage that wrapped the female corpse like a living python, and spiraled up to a height of two meters. With the sound of clicking, Wei Chongming soon saw a large amount of black blood mixed with minced meat slowly moving along the vines. It flowed out slowly.

Xiaolong's strangling vine is a control-type ability. Although it is not as flexible as Shen Tinglan's iron thorn, it is stronger in strength and attack.Especially right now, it has a unique advantage in the wilderness and the vegetation-covered terrain.

"Wow, it's only a second?" Wei Chongming sighed again and again.

Xiaolong did not relax his vigilance, but kept looking around, frowned and said: "This is not the wraith we saw just now!"

As soon as he finished speaking, there was another strange movement in the depths of the dense forest.Pairs of rotten and pale ghost hands broke through the ground, and in sight, seven or eight rotten corpses came out from the side of the road.Their throats let out a phlegm-like growl, their faces were ashen, their eyes turned white, and the skin on their faces had rotted, exposing the gray bones below.

Shen Tinglan noticed that these corpses, like the corpse of the woman in the white dress just now, seemed to be controlled by some kind of ability.Several of the corpses had missing ankles and joints, but they did not affect their movements in the slightest.However, when they run, it is still obvious that their limbs are extremely uncoordinated.

Without further ado, Wei Chongming turned into a gun in each of his left and right hands, and fired a round at the corpse.And Shen Tinglan also pulled out the Desert Eagle, and said to his companion: "Fortunately, these guys have entities."

"I like dealing with things like zombies!"

Xiaolong waved his hands, and several strangulation vines sprang out from the ground like towering ancient trees.The sharp vines directly penetrated the corpse's chest, hanging them from the branches.Thinking of the embarrassing battle in the road to survival before, now that he has the ability, it is much easier to deal with these things.

However, just when he thought the battle could be easily ended, the next second, the corpses on the treetops roared again, and they tore off their own remnants, and fell to the ground one after another.

A large piece of black blood and minced flesh squirmed inexplicably, and gradually pieced together back to its original shape, including the female corpse that he crushed just now.

Xiaolong took a few steps back and couldn't help frowning: "What are these things? They are neither zombies nor ghosts?"

"Roar--"

Just when Xiaolong was distracted, a blood-stained female corpse had circled behind him at some point, opened its bloody mouth and bit towards his neck.

Xiaolong didn't react, and he didn't have time to control the strangulation vine to defend.Between the lightning and the flint, several iron thorns mixed with black mist rushed forward with the sound of breaking wind, and directly blasted the female corpse's heads to pieces.

The body of the female corpse swayed, and fell to the side due to the effect of inertia.Shen Tinglan saw the right moment, summoned several thorns from the ground, and directly twisted the female corpse into a pool of blood

"Pfft!"

Like the sound of a water glass breaking, with a clear sound, countless red and white things mixed with saliva and black blood burst open.But soon, the flesh and blood squirmed and gathered together again.

Jinbei's body is covered with layers of rattan, as strong as armor.Several walking corpses climbed onto the car, seeing that the attack was fruitless, they turned their targets to Shen Tinglan and the others.

"Continuing like this is not an option." Wei Chongming kept pulling the trigger and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.In his sight, more and more dense black shadows came out from both sides of the road. At this moment, he suddenly remembered that he had seen the nearby terrain on the way here.

Wei Chongming's face changed: "Oh no! There seems to be a cemetery nearby!"

Different from the real world, the rural areas of Yuheng City still retain the custom of burial, and it is precisely because of this that so many corpses appear today.

"Our stamina will always be exhausted, besides, we have been procrastinating for so long, and the time is constantly passing..." Wei Chongming murmured: "We must find a way to get out!"

"That ghost must be trying to prevent us from going to the unfinished building." Xiaolong looked around and murmured: "Before, Hubert and I clearly saw it appearing in the middle of the road, why did it disappear in a blink of an eye? "

Shen Tinglan manipulated the iron thorns, and kept tearing up the corpses that tried to get close to him and his companions.Now the three of them have tried various methods, from physical attacks to spiritual weapons... nothing has worked.

At this moment, Su Li's voice suddenly came from the golden cup not far away.

Although he couldn't get out of the car to help in the battle, Su Li had been observing the situation in the middle of the road from just now until now.Combined with the scene where Lin Qing was attacked on the plane before, Su Li couldn't help shouting loudly: "It's blood! It is the blood from the previous ghost that controls the actions of those murderous corpses, including making them recover from injuries again and again!"

Inspired by her, Shen Tinglan's eyes lit up immediately, and he realized the problem: the corpses in front of him had shriveled skin and seemed to have been dead for many years.However, whenever they are injured, a lot of black blood will always flow out of their bodies, which is really unreasonable.

"I know what to do!" Shen Tinglan looked at Xiaolong immediately, and said to him: "Remove the strangling vines released on the car, let's get in the car!"

"Come on!" Xiaolong immediately understood the meaning of the other party: attacking and destroying again and again is useless, it will only make those fierce corpses continue to repair and reorganize.That being the case, all they can do is avoid the battle, restrain the corpse's movements, and then run away!
All the vines covering the car body were scattered, and then ran towards the murderous corpse on the road.

The vines instantly turned into ropes, wrapped around the waists of those corpses, and dragged them into the depths of the dense forest.

Shen Tinglan and the others quickly jumped into the car, and Jin Bei had returned to normal. Hubert stepped on the accelerator and drove away from the spot.Seeing the dense group of corpses rushing out of the forest, Xiaolong folded his hands and made a "rise" movement.

In an instant, a large number of vines broke through the ground in the forest on both sides of the road, and quickly assembled into a wall nearly three meters high, blocking the path of the murderous corpse.

"Brother, you did a great job!" Wei Chongming let out a long sigh of relief as he looked at the black shadows that disappeared under the moonlight.
