Chapter 32
In the dense forest covered with dead red and white snow, Lindsay ran wildly.
Behind him, the dead body was chasing after him. Naturally, he did not let go of the prey in front of him, shortening the distance between him and Lindsay at all times.
The two men were running in the direction of the border town.
But Lindsay has never been involved in this, and he doesn't know where the hunter has laid traps, so it is impossible to find other external support to help him now.
Run, run as fast as you can!
This is the first element related to Lindsay's life.
But for this most important attribute, he was still a little slower than the adult corpse behind him. If you continue to maintain the status quo until the end, the opponent will exhaust your energy to catch up and then kill you.
Take advantage of the fact that you still have some energy.
No matter how small the possibility is or how unreliable it seems, you must give it a try!
"Tsk——"
In order to fight for life.
Lindsay gritted her teeth, turned around and shot an arrow at the corpse.
The archery skills that have reached the (mastery) level are indeed better than when they were (beginners). This arrow not only accurately hit the target, but also hit the head of the dead body.
But the result is the same as before.
The hard body gave this resurrected monster a strong defense. The body cannot be penetrated with a knife at close range, and arrows are also ineffective.
The arrow only scratched its skin and then bounced feebly to the ground, as if mocking Lin's futile struggle.
Bows and arrows have no effect at all!
"..."
Lindsay's eyes darkened.
He didn't complain, but just threw the bow and arrows at the corpse together with the arrows on his back. On the one hand, you try to slow down the other party, and at the same time, you also reduce your own burden.
"Roar!"
The corpse reacted very quickly, waving his hand and swatting the bow and arrow away.
Then - snap!
The thick coat that Lindsay took off also flew over and covered the dead body's face, like a big bag wrapping it.
Tear!
Immediately afterwards, the dead body's reaction was exactly the same as when it shot the bow and arrow away. It waved its hands vigorously and soon tore Lindsay's coat into pieces and hung them on its chest.
It was this short resistance that allowed Lindsay to buy herself a few more seconds.
He once again put some distance between himself and the dead body behind him, and used this rare opportunity to think about everything he had just experienced.
It is faster than myself, cannot be defeated by force, and cannot escape by climbing a tree.
What else can be done?
Can you escape from the never-ending pursuit of the dead?
While running, Lindsay kept looking back at the state of the dead body behind her.
At this time, hanging on the chest of the dead body, the tattered clothes that just belonged to Lindsay gave him a hint.
Lindsay suddenly remembered the action of the dead body when it knocked away the bow and arrow.
And at the beginning of the encounter, the corpse will attack the target multiple times on Ju and himself.
The most important thing is that Lindsay looked at the dead body twice.
He clearly saw the state of this guy's eyes. They were definitely not eyes that could be used by a living person.
A bold idea began to brew in Lindsay's mind.
The next moment, he stopped suddenly.
This is not to say that Lindsay is giving up resistance.
Because at the same time he stopped, he also pulled out his protective knife and threw it at an oak tree dozens of meters away.
boom!
The tree trunk made a sound when the knife hit it.
Lindsay stood motionless, even her breathing was kept to a minimum.
The result was just as he thought.
This corpse really didn't care about Lindsay who was standing there motionless. Instead, he turned his head and rushed towards the tree where the knife hit!
"Roar!"
The dead body hit a tree and then clawed and clawed in front of it.
It wasn't until a good tree was scratched with scars that it confirmed that there was no living animal in front of it. So, the corpse turned its head again and moved slowly towards Lindsay.
Having lost its target, it prepares to check the previous target location. But the attitude when approaching was not as sure as when the chase started.
"Sure enough, this monster launched the attack in the direction of the sound..."
Watch the scene in its entirety.
Lindsay finally figured out the rules for the opponent's attack.
But he didn't relax.
Because as long as he moves, the corpse will definitely continue to pursue him.
When the time comes, he who is slower will still be unable to escape death.
It would be nice if... some inexplicable wild animal came out.
Even if another monster comes, as long as it can lure away the dead body in front of him, Lindsay is willing to be shot with a few ice picks. After all, it can at least be dealt with!
Unfortunately this is not realistic.
Lindsay had no choice but to start a new chase before the dead body got close to her.
Wait until the stamina bar is exhausted again.
In the roaring pursuit of the corpse, he threw out his cassava kettle and repeated the previous action of luring the enemy.
as expected.
For a monster that only relies on hearing, this trick still works.
Lindsay once again distanced herself from the monster, and at the same time got the chance to recover her strength.
Repeated this several times, this plan always works well.
But after using it a few times, Lindsay inevitably finds herself in trouble again.
The reason is simple - he has nothing to throw away.
If it were any other season, any stone picked up in the forest could be thrown out to hinder the pursuit of the dead.
But on this snow-covered ground.
I'm afraid that just as he was digging through the snow and looking for rocks, this dead body could chase him and throw him to the ground.
"..."
"Only the final distance is left."
Lindsay's eyes were focused, staring ahead. Through the snow cover of the forest, he could already vaguely distinguish the taller buildings in the town.
Just one step away from being rescued!
You must know that this is the woods to the north of the town.
Further ahead, there happens to be An Rui's lord's manor and the clearing by the forest where the guards and awakened people practice daily.
If you can get there, you can be rescued immediately!
Lindsay gritted her teeth and continued running.
Trees slid from beside him to behind him, the sound of trampling on the snow was one continuous sound, and the speed was almost at the limit.
But behind Lindsay, the sounds of dead bodies chasing him were getting closer and closer.
The former is life, the latter is death.
Caught between two emotions, Lindsay couldn't think of any other way.
He glanced at his attribute panel. His stamina bar was rapidly decreasing as he ran and was about to bottom out!
"Yes!"
Lindsay suddenly had an idea.
He immediately jumped up on one foot and took off the shoe on the other foot at the same time, preparing to use this thing to buy himself the final time to escape.
Brush——
At this moment, a red light flashed in front of him.
Lindsay, who had just held the shoes in her hands, had no time to react.
But the target of the red light was not him. Instead, it bypassed Lindsay's body as if it was intelligent.
It passes through dense woods, across the towering canopy, over the snow falling on the branches, and pushes away the gentle breeze in the forest.
It feels like time has arrived, and it feels like it is already here, just in the blink of an eye, passing by in the quiet winter.
Watch the red light flash away.
Lindsay inexplicably thought of one word - death.
