Free Web NovelChapter 696: Chapter 246: 【Sword Loss】_3
After handing over his consciousness, Ree Shil returned to his original body.
Quickly determining the direction, he immediately led his vast army of more than a thousand minions in a forced march.
In order to cooperate with each other, he and Greenfeather moved separately but not too far apart.
Even if the other party remained still, it would only take about 10 minutes for him to reach them at full speed in a straight line.
This was because the Zombie Beasts’ movement speed wasn’t high.
If Ree Shil went alone, he would arrive in about 5 minutes.
However, he didn’t feel the need to rush for a few more minutes since there was no one to stop him now.
But when such a large army passes through the streets, it’s inevitable to cause some commotion.
For example, when the foolish Zombie Beasts encountered obstacles, they didn’t know how to bypass them but instead went straight through them.
As a result, many old and decaying buildings and walls were knocked over.
"Huh?"
Less than 5 minutes after the entire army set out, Ree Shil discovered that the number of Zombie Beasts on the edge of the group suddenly decreased by several.
After a few seconds, several more disappeared.
It could be said that the number was continuously reduced, quite rhythmically.
Given the situation in the Ancient City, the only reason for the decrease in the number of Zombie Beast minions was that they encountered an enemy.
So, he quickly commanded the Stone Zombies carrying his bed to turn around and head towards where the incident happened.
"What’s going on with this guy?"
When Ree Shil arrived at the scene, he couldn’t help but be slightly surprised.
He saw the Zombie Beasts he had placed in a particular position simply cleaned out, and a small area was entirely cleared.
In that open space, a guy was dancing wildly with a sword, slashing at Zombie Beasts.
A red energy longsword in his hand made cutting through the Zombie Beasts seem as easy as cutting through mud.
Wherever it went, dozens of Zombie Beasts fell.
The guy’s other hand grabbed onto a Zombie Beast limb, biting into it greedily.
"This guy, isn’t he...?"
Ree Shil didn’t recognize him at first.
However, when he saw the red energy sword scabbard on his waist, he recognized it.
The Sword Elder, the one who gave him a mission before.
Compared to being sealed in the barrier and being skin and bones, he now looked somewhat fuller.
Although still quite thin, at least he had the shape of a human.
"Did he...find his sword?"
"And turned into a Zombie Beast?"
Watching the guy’s behavior of devouring the Zombie Beasts, he believed he had found the answer.
Perhaps he was freed from the barrier, but some curse remained in his body, turning it into a Zombie Beast.
At this time, Ree Shil couldn’t help but suspect that Giant Missing and Little Round were actually killed by the freed and mutated Sword Elder.
This made him suddenly feel a little scared – if he had been the one to break the barrier, would he have been killed as well?
It seemed that the mission of this Instance was a bit uncertain – you would complete the mission and get rewards, but also face the danger of being eliminated?
"However, knowing the backstory, he seems quite pitiful, even though he’s just an NPC projection."
"Let me help you out."
With that, Ree Shil snapped his fingers.
[Rock Gargoyle!]xN
A circle of stone zombies stepped out, replacing the Ginseng Zombies, forming a circle around the Sword Loss Elder.
They had hardened skin, so their defense was higher, and they shouldn’t be killed with one strike.
However, it turned out that Ree Shil had overestimated them.
[Sword Loss!]
With a swing of the Sword Loss Elder’s sword, they still perished as usual.
It was evident, besides the sharp swordsmanship, the red energy sword was also incredibly powerful.
[More... flesh!]
At this point, the Sword Loss Elder seemed to notice Ree Shil’s presence.
In his eyes, Ree Shil, with his abundant inner energy, seemed much more appealing than these small Zombie Beast minions.
So he directly turned his attention towards him and charged over.
With the red energy sword in hand, no minion could stand in his way.
"Tsk."
Seeing this scene, Ree Shil felt a sense of unease.
He quickly commanded the Zombies carrying his bed to retreat while immediately launching an Energy Bomb.
Boom!!!
The impact of the Energy Bomb was massive, creating a large pit more than 2 meters in diameter on the ground.
All the Zombie Beasts in range couldn’t bear it, leaving only a pile of rotten meat fragments on the ground.
The Sword Loss Elder, however, had disappeared without a trace.
"Huh? Done?"
"It shouldn’t be that simple, right? Does he have any hidden abilities?"
Ree Shil didn’t believe that a powerful NPC who could wreak havoc on an army of Zombie Beasts would be taken down by a single Energy Bomb.
And then...
[Ding dong!]
[You’ve slain Sword Loss]
[This NPC has entered the Card pool]
It wasn’t until the Instance prompted, did he truly believe it.
"I knew it! Killing NPCs can gain chances to enter the pool!"
"But, this guy’s body is so weak!"
While scoffing, Ree Shil was also quite excited.
So, wouldn’t he be able to draw [Sword Loss]and [Sword Elder]cards?
The Fusion Degree of these two cards must be very high, right?
Although he didn’t know their specific Panel, it was worth a try.
"That’s so cool! Daytime is great."
"Meeting an NPC halfway." freewēbnoveℓ.com
"Uh, but it’s also a Zombie Beast, so it should be easier to encounter at night."
Regardless, Ree Shil felt it was a gain.
This also meant that after receiving and completing the Three-eyed Zombie Beast mission later, he would indirectly get two more cards to enter the pool.
So, he continued marching with his large army, and after another 5 or 6 minutes, he finally reunited with Greenfeather.
Good news! The Three-eyed Zombie Beast NPC was still there.
[Accept/Decline the Three-eyed Zombie Beast’s mission]
[Mission: Protect the Three-eyed Zombie Beast, kill a treasure-hunting Demonic Exterminator who is tracking you]
Upon seeing the mission Panel pop up again, Ree Shil waved his hand boldly.
"Accepted!"
Defeating the Sword Loss Elder made his confidence swell.
No matter what kind of NPC would come later, he would deal with it all the same.
