[0299] The Road to Survival
In Drizzt's amazement, a live-action drama of the road to survival was officially staged on Shadow Island.
It seemed that because of the scent of living people, the undead people on Shadow Island gathered more and more, pushing like zombies out of the cage, and rushed towards the squad that was exploring the way. Their bodies and black fog were almost integrated, and they were slow to move but not staggering, and they looked indescribable.
As the one who has the clearest perception of black fog among the group, Sena immediately frowned when she saw this scene.
Just like in Thresh's soul-attracting lamp, she tried to communicate with these undead people, but received no response - although most of the undead people were dying, even so, their instincts were still there, but these undead people around seemed to have no instincts, just like a puppet...
The silence of singing appeared in everyone's ears at some point. The song was soothing and melodious, with an inexplicable sadness that made people unable to help but indulge in it, and even spoke and sang.
Then, just as Drizzt started playing the beat and Graves pulled his neck to start singing, the invisible force lifted the two of them into the air and then collided hard.
"Be clear, idiot!" After leaving two big bags on the foreheads of this pair of good friends, Syndra became nervous very rarely, "If you don't want to die, take your torch!"
Drizzt and Graves were awake in the pain and looked at each other, while carefully protecting the flashing and darkening light on the torch. Seeing that the flames were not as bright as before, Drizzt looked at Lucian, who was a little worried.
"Can you add some fuel?"
Unfortunately, Lucian decisively rejected him.
"No." The Holy Gun Ranger looked at the surrounding situation, and compared to the map he had drawn before, "The flames can protect your soul and will also provoke more undead people. Now the flames of this size are just right."
After saying that, Lucian lowered his head again and began to find the best evacuation path.
Seeing that he could not give himself a sense of security by increasing the flames, Drizzt could only shruggle - and at this time of question and answer, the ethereal singing just now disappeared.
There seemed to be more undead around him, and Lucian looked up at the surroundings again, and finally pointed in a direction.
"Go here!" Lucian quickly put away the map, "From here, go east for a short distance, there is a cliff there, and we can avoid the undead who follow us."
When Syndra heard this, he nodded and took the initiative to come to the front of the team. After Drizzt and Graves looked at each other, they stood by Lucian on the left and right. In addition, Saina, who was gradually blending with the black fog, the entire team quickly began to move in a cross formation.
Although there are many undead people like puppets, at least they do not have enough lethality on the front. With the effort of Shindra waving his hand, an open road appeared in front of him. Under the surging repulsion, those undead people could not die anymore.
This behavior made Senna feel a little uncomfortable - she was used to letting the deceased rest in peace, Senna prefers to end their pain one by one and listen to their stories, but these undead people are controlled by others after all, and the situation is urgent now, so she just frowned.
Well, I always feel that this woman has other purpose.
………………………………………
The five people quickly followed the route drawn by Lucian, turned a mountain bend and then arrived at the cliff. However, unlike Lucian's previous expectations, the height of the cliff was a little shorter, not enough to get rid of the undead who was chasing behind him.
Although it is a bit embarrassing, I can only talk about it now!
With the help of Syndra, the five people quickly flew over the cliff, and then, just as Lucian was silently thinking about the next countermeasure, Syndra took action again.
A large mass of soil was lifted into the air. As the earth shook, the cliff was raised several meters, directly blocking the pursuit of the subsequent undead.
Although Syndra had performed similar moves outside Precidian before, now when she saw her ease changing the terrain with her own strength, Drizzt still felt her eyelids twitching.
Is this still a human being?
"Mr. Lucian." As if he had only completed a little insignificant work, Syndra looked at Lucian who was equally shocked. "The situation seems to have changed now, and the relatively safe peripheral areas may not be that safe... In this case, I think it would be better to use more violence."
Use more violence?
Lucian pinched his temple with some distress. As a member of the Light Sentinel, he has always regarded himself as the guardian of Fukugawa Island. It is precisely for this reason that when he can avoid violence, he still hopes to avoid violence.
In Lucian's view, the best way to solve Shadow Island is to find and eliminate the source of corruption here. Only in this way can these innocent undead people on Fukuo Island rest in peace forever.
In comparison, Syndra doesn't care about the undead here at all.
If killing all the undead can solve the problem, she doesn't mind...
Syndra accepted Yasuo's mission - she knew very well that Yasuo's goal was Fukugami Island itself.
Lucian had been leading the team's operations before, but now, with a series of changes, things are moving in an unpredictable direction. Syndra intends to take advantage of this opportunity to take the lead in this operation!
Lucian did not react, while Senna took the initiative to come to Chindra.
"Fukukami Island has already endured too much." Looking at the Shindra who seemed to be planning to kill in the air, Senna looked firm, "We need help, but if the price is to destroy everything, we would rather not have this help."
"Oh, is that?" Syndra seemed to have not noticed Senna's threat at all. "That is, I can quit now and everyone will do their own things?"
"you?!"
Senna never expected that Syndra, who was a teammate before, would take such an attitude!
Because of following along the way, Syndra was able to find Shadow Island - considering her own resistance to negative energy, she might not need herself and Lucian, and without the help of the Light Sentinel, she also has the ability to climb Fukugawa Island!
That way...
Things are really bad!
"What exactly are you going to do?" After realizing the seriousness of the problem, Senna finally spoke in a stern voice, "Why must violence be used?"
"Because I don't want to die here with you."
