Free Web NovelChapter 1160: Chapter 1159: The Terrifying Giant Corpse
"Big... big reanimated corpse, what is that?" Lin Fan asked with a serious expression.
"A big reanimated corpse is actually a form of corpse transformation, a term in the tomb raiding world, referring to a stalemate. This big reanimated corpse is some deceased person’s perfectly preserved body, and at a certain point, suddenly comes back to life. Perhaps the stone I just stepped on was a trigger that awakened it!" Xiang’Er explained!
Lin Fan was unfamiliar with tomb raiding and such matters; moreover, this was his first time entering an ancient tomb, and he had no experience, making it feel more difficult than facing hundreds of mercenaries!
"Do we have any way to kill it?" Lin Fan asked.
"These big reanimated corpses, I’ve only read about them in ancient texts. Black Donkey’s Hoof can subdue them, and they leave no shadow. Unless their bodies explode, any attack on them is futile!" Xiang’Er explained.
"Where the hell are we supposed to find a Black Donkey’s Hoof!" Nie Lei burst out, swearing impatiently!
By this point, the big reanimated corpse had already stood up and stepped out of the coffin. He wore a layer of warrior armor and was over two meters tall!
The big reanimated corpse turned around, and to Lin Fan’s surprise, its head was covered with scars, the flesh was gray, and two phosphorescent fires burned in the hollow sockets of its eyes, making it look terrifying!
"Boom!"
Suddenly, a loud noise erupted!
With a heavy step, the big reanimated corpse made the ground thud with an ear-splitting sound!
"Attack immediately!"
Faced with this terrifying spectacle, Lin Fan dared not be careless and shouted urgently!
Nie Lei and the others had prepared for a long time. As soon as Lin Fan’s command fell, fingers on the triggers were mercilessly pulled!
Ratatat~ratatat~
In an instant, the dense sound of bullets rang out, the cave became deafeningly loud, echoing endlessly!
The heavy weapon muzzles of the three guns spat out bullets, creating sparks as if spewing fiery snakes!
Nie Lei and the others had been through countless battles and trained with guns daily; their accuracy was undeniable, and every bullet hit the big reanimated corpse!
"Crackle~"
The big reanimated corpse’s armor crumbled under the onslaught of bullets, shattered to pieces, and though bullets pierced its body, no blood spilled!
It was nothing more than a dried corpse!
However, although the bullets pierced the armor, when they struck the big reanimated corpse’s bones, it was like hitting an egg against a rock, doing no harm!
Quickly, the three ran out of bullets, but the big reanimated corpse still stood in place!
"Roar roar roar~"
The big reanimated corpse let out a muffled roar!
While Lin Fan and the others reloaded, the big reanimated corpse sped up, rushing towards Lin Fan and the others!
"Seeking death!"
Lin Fan coldly shouted, holding the Soft Sword, rushing to meet it. He stomped heavily on the ground, shooting up like an arrow, the Soft Sword in both hands slashing towards the big reanimated corpse’s head!
"Clang!"
The Soft Sword landed on the big reanimated corpse’s head, and to Lin Fan’s surprise, the skull didn’t fracture in the slightest, instead, Lin Fan’s arm went numb from the shock!
This sword strike could shatter an iron block, yet this big reanimated corpse... terrifying!
"Roar!"
The big reanimated corpse let out a deep roar, its hollow eyes’ phosphorus fires staring at Lin Fan, raising its arm and swinging down like a falling iron pillar!
Lin Fan dared not be careless; in mid-air, he flipped backward, easily dodging the strike, quickly thrusting the Soft Sword into the big reanimated corpse’s chest!
A fierce strike unmercifully pierced through the big reanimated corpse’s chest, the sword tip emerging from its back!
Unfortunately, no blood flowed from the big reanimated corpse’s chest. Though the sword pierced its chest, the big reanimated corpse merely glanced down, letting out a huge roar as its fist, like a hammer, struck violently towards Lin Fan’s head!
Lin Fan had no time to pull the Soft Sword from the big reanimated corpse’s body, slided swiftly as if greased, skillfully moving aside!
"Boom!"
With a loud crash!
The big reanimated corpse’s fist struck the ground, creating a deep pit and cracks!
One missed strike, the big reanimated corpse raised its fist again, aiming at Lin Fan’s face!
Lin Fan’s face was grave beyond measure; he pushed off forcefully from the ground, shooting up like an arrow, his body twisting in midair, deftly dodging the big reanimated corpse’s fist, landing on its chest, grabbing the embedded Soft Sword, pulling it out swiftly, and striking toward its throat!
"Clink!" A metallic clash rang out, the Soft Sword meeting the big reanimated corpse’s throat with the sound of clashing metal, unable to slice off the head!
But as soon as Lin Fan landed, his toes pushed off again, leaping high up, Soft Sword in hand, alive and aggressive, moving at breakneck speed!
Whoosh whoosh~
Lin Fan swiftly thrust twice, aiming for the big reanimated corpse’s eyes!
The big reanimated corpse hastily shielded its face with its arm, but Lin Fan’s speed was lightning-fast!
Thunk thunk~
The sharp sword tip pierced the big reanimated corpse’s eye sockets, mercilessly extinguishing the two phosphorescent fires within!
"Roar roar roar~"
The big reanimated corpse roared hysterically but did not fall!
Without the phosphorus fires, it was as good as blind, losing its sense of direction, frantically flailing its arms, charging in the opposite direction of Lin Fan!
Witnessing this, Lin Fan gasped several times!
This big reanimated corpse was practically indestructible, more terrifying than Lin Fan had imagined!
"Boom~" "Boom~" "Boom~"...
Suddenly, a series of muffled thuds resounded!
The lids of twenty or so coffins flew off in unison, followed by figures sitting upright inside!
They quickly stepped out of the coffins, their towering figures all over two meters, eye sockets aflame with two phosphorescent fires!
Undoubtedly, these were resurrected big reanimated corpses!
More than twenty of them stood before Lin Fan and the others, like giants, exerting an overwhelming pressure on them!
"Damn it! We managed to blind one, and now so many more appear. Am I going to die here today?" Nie Lei cursed!
"Enough defeatist talk; with me here, no one will die today!" Lin Fan shouted, face calm and steady!
"Lin Fan, there’s a passage over here!"
At this moment, Xiang’Er’s voice suddenly echoed!
