Starting from The Witcher, he slaughtered his way across the world.

Kant gripped his longsword tightly, looking warily toward the direction from which the footsteps were coming, even though he knew this weapon could not give him much of a sense of security.

"It doesn't seem to be a demonic corpse."

Luo Fan said in a low voice.

He discovered that the demonic corpse moved without making a sound, even when it was chasing someone.

These footsteps, however, clearly did not belong to one person.

If it were a bunch of demonic corpses, he could just lie down and wait to die.

"It's a miracle that someone is still alive."

A strong voice rang out, and several figures slowly appeared in Luo Fan's sight.

"Stellan, the real miracle is that they actually killed a demon corpse!"

Another surprised young voice rang out. The man quickened his pace as he spoke, and a young yet resolute face appeared. He wore a bright silver suit of armor and a red cloak draped over his back.

"Tell me quickly, how did you do that?"

The man's gaze fell on Kant, who was holding a longsword, his eyes filled with curiosity.

The others also came into Luo Fan's view one after another. He saw Jonas, the guard who had fled earlier, and two other guards whose names he did not know, along with two unfamiliar faces.

A tall, imposing man with a rugged face, wearing heavy armor and carrying a shield on his back, who looked very composed.

There was also a short-haired woman wearing light armor, with a dashing figure and a cold expression.

The aura emanating from these three men was clearly stronger than that of the guards; it was obvious to the naked eye that they were not of the same caliber.

"It's the two of you! You're still alive?!"

Jonas gasped, looking at Lovan and Kant in disbelief.

When he saw the decapitated demon corpse, his eyes widened in shock.

"My lord, we were lucky enough to discover the weakness of this demonic corpse, which is why we barely managed to defeat it."

Luo Fan then respectfully looked at the man who had spoken first and answered his question.

He is currently only a commoner, so he must keep a low profile. In this world with clear class distinctions, people from the lower classes who dare to disrespect someone who clearly has status will be punished easily.

Like him, all he did was talk back to the tax official a few times.

"Not bad, you're much better than these idiots who only know how to run away. Of course, you're also really lucky to be alive."

The man casually sat down by the campfire, glancing at the guards with disdain in his eyes.

He had already guessed the answer when he saw the scorching marks on the demon corpse.

Jonas and his two companions dared not show any anger at his arrogant attitude and stood there obediently.

He treated the guards the same way the guards treated Luo Fan and the other prisoners, completely disregarding them.

"The corpses that have just been tainted by evil energy still have a weakness for fire, which is their weakest period. Their hard defenses will melt like candles when they encounter fire, but the demonic corpses that have passed this stage will not have this weakness. You are indeed very lucky."

A deep, resonant sound rang out, and the tall man named Stellan, who was carrying a shield, also sat down by the campfire, taking down the heavy shield and setting it up to the side.

The cold-hearted woman sat silently on the other side, not approaching the fire, remaining silent throughout.

Upon hearing this, Luo Fan felt relieved, but even more so, he was horrified.

Was that demonic corpse just now only the weakest one?

Is there something even more powerful than the demonic corpse?

He did indeed escape with his life by sheer luck. If what Stellan said is true, then once a demonic corpse has passed its initial stage, it will no longer have the weakness of fearing fire.

Even if you give him 10 more enhancement points, it probably still won't solve the problem.

and many more......

Luo Fan suddenly realized something and couldn't help but look at the young man who was warming his hands by the fire.

The fact that Jonas and the other two were able to survive is clearly related to these three people. Their ability to return here means that the demonic corpses that were chasing the guards are dead.

But when they arrived, they saw not a single glimmer of light...

Considering the demon corpse's rock-hard defense, what kind of strength must these three possess to kill it?

And what exactly is this demonic corpse?

Isn't this a world similar to the Middle Ages?

Could there be supernatural powers in this world? After all, even terrifying creatures like demonic corpses exist, and the three of them, including Stellan, who were able to defeat them, are clearly stronger than ordinary humans.

Seemingly noticing Luo Fan's shocked expression, the young man smiled and said, "What's the big deal? We're not like these weaklings. We can still defeat low-level demons like demon corpses."

"On the contrary, I admire you. You're all so thin and weak, yet you still managed to think of a way to fight back against the demonic corpses under those circumstances."

The disdain in his eyes when he looked at Luo Fan and Kant had vanished, replaced by a gentler smile.

Then, he changed the subject and cast a look of great interest at him.

"However, demonic corpses are born with extreme cold, which can suppress flames. Generally speaking, newly born demonic corpses like these won't approach their own weaknesses. Once the flames are extinguished, they can easily kill you. So I'm very curious, how exactly did you manage to do that?"

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone on the field turned their gazes toward him, even the aloof woman looked over.

Luo Fan's heart tightened, and without hesitation, he replied, "It was really just luck. That demonic corpse was getting closer and closer to us, and we were almost helpless."

"In the face of death, we had no choice but to fight desperately. When we were closest to it, we drew the flames onto its body and then desperately chopped off its head. Only then did we deduce that it might be afraid of fire."

"After that, we intensified the fire, waiting to fight the other demonic corpse to the death."

"Now that we've seen you gentlemen, I suppose that demonic corpse has been dealt with by now?"

His explanation faded away.

Jonas's probing gaze also revealed a hint of realization. It turned out that these two had discovered the weakness of the demon corpse by chance. He had thought that these two cowardly men, who had been terrified, were bound to die if they hid here.

I never expected to be so lucky.

If he had known, he would have stayed here too.

If he hadn't run into Strand and his two companions, he and the other two guards would never have escaped.

"I see. After all, they are low-level demons, and it's not impossible for them to die from their own stupidity. However, it's quite commendable that you two had the courage to fight the demon corpse to the death; you deserve to live."

"Unlike them, if we hadn't happened to be passing by and heard their screams, they would have been three corpses by now."

The young man glanced at Jonas and the other two again as he spoke, but did not ask Luo Fan any further questions.

"Thank you, gentlemen, for saving my life."

"I have no way to repay you..."

"Thank you very much, gentlemen."

The three guards smiled obsequiously and thanked them profusely.

Luo Fan breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, he had already thrown the enhanced, makeshift torch into the campfire, where it had now become part of the fuel.

Otherwise, with Jonas and the other two present, it would be difficult to explain where the torch came from.
