Chapter 493 Everyone Has a Switch, Find It Right

Witcher Parari Rabindra, commander of the rebel column, retreated desperately with her soldiers.

The front line was out of control, and Byerland's reserves gave the troops who charged up the low hill a head-on blow, pushing them down the hill.Most of Oscar's hybrid test subjects were defeated and eliminated together, while the few remaining were surrounded.

However, only a part of the front-line troops were defeated. Due to the limited width of the battlefield, many phalanxes under other senior commanders have not participated in the exhibition.Especially the column led by the fallen wizard Joseph is still very complete.As long as they put in the fight, everything will be fine.

Palari asked her guards to follow her and quickly approached the Chinese army.

The group came down from the low hill.They seemed to have run for a while, but they didn't encounter any supporting army.

When the soldiers slowed down in surprise, the keen Palau suddenly found himself in a vast and corrupt black swamp, and the phalanx that was supposed to respond here was gone; The blurry outline of the army in the distance, only the same quagmire.

"What about our army?"

"Where is the fifth column led by Joseph?"

The officers and soldiers couldn't help but stop, surprised by the unexpected and huge change.Even if they couldn't see the whole picture clearly, they could vaguely sense that danger was lurking beneath their feet like a spider's web.

Palari's fear surpassed all others.Because in that air, and in that rotting soil, an extremely ominous smell touched her spirituality, trembling from the bottom of her heart.She sensed the rotten smell floating on the ground, and the rotten smell of the indescribable thing lurking in the depths of the decaying swamp.

The roar of fighting that was supposed to fill the sky and the earth could not be heard.There were no corpses or blood on the ground, and the black swamp seemed to have swallowed everything.

Not long ago, before launching the last attack, the commander in front received a report that the fifth column led by Joseph, the fallen wizard of the central army, and many troops could not come to support as planned—they encountered some strange attacks in many directions. The enemy attacked, and Commander Joseph was trying to disperse these disturbances.

Harassment by cavalry and skirmishers on the battlefield is not uncommon, and the three frontline commanders Green, Serel, and Palari judged that this is not a big deal.

However, these vital reserves have disappeared.

Without the messy corpses after the battle, just words cannot describe this absolute silence and inexhaustible barrenness, and it is impossible to imagine the sinister existence that inhabits it.Listening can hear nothing, seeing can't see a limit in this wide mud; the absolute silence and utter monotony magnify the horror to a disgusting degree.

finished?What happened...Palari suddenly saw hundreds of soldiers stumbling forward from a distance, some of them were wearing the uniforms of the regular army, and some were wearing the gray cloth clothes of the auxiliary soldiers.

"Go and have a look!" She said to her subordinates, "Let them gather and lead us to find other troops."

Immediately, several sergeants stood up and ran to meet the soldiers.

"I say you!
"Stop all of them! Line up! The column commander has orders for you."

The leading sergeant shouted.But some soldiers looked at the approaching reinforcements and felt something was wrong.

"They appear to be badly injured."

"The man's arms are gone. Can he travel like this?" echoed another.

The sergeant also saw that all the phalanx soldiers and auxiliary soldiers who came here were severely injured, and some even had their necks bitten off, revealing horrible bones, and frightening green lights shone in their eyes.

This doesn't feel right...

"Stop, stay where you are!"

As soon as the words fell, a soldier rushed forward and bit off the throat of the leading sergeant.

……

Palari's heart was about to jump out of her throat. Ever since she became a commander, she had gotten used to riding a horse, and she hadn't run like this for a long time.

But now she runs faster than anyone else.Her soldiers also ran faster than the other, and the slower ones fed the horrible creatures, and then the mutilated corpses stood up and joined the ranks of biting the living.

Corpse tide!

The seven gods are on top!Parari had seen many monsters, but the living dead had only heard of them in rumors.This cursed monster feeds on living flesh and hunts the living without stopping.Living creatures killed by them are transformed into monsters like them.

It's over!It's over!The Chinese army phalanx assembled on the plain must have been attacked by living corpses during the most intense battle.Coupled with the Bayeran cavalry who have been wandering around, all the reserve teams may be finished!
Palari felt her legs were heavy with lead, and her breath was like a broken bellows.There was no one of the sergeants around her, only herself, who ran to nowhere in the chaos.

Reason is evaporating.She stopped suddenly in a cold feeling.Every ounce of spirituality is strongly warning her not to go any further!

Layers upon layers of ravings lingered in her ears, making her extremely disturbed.Suddenly, a huge and strange object appeared in front of him, sharp and protruding about a hundred feet in front, glowing with a dark red gleam.It was certainly not a gigantic rock, and both its incredible size and striking silhouette proved that it was not a creation of nature.

This is an artistic statue...Palari stood there as if cursed, until the black line of sight was projected on the object, allowing her to see the whole picture.

This is Iseus, or the Flesh Fortress that Iseus has become...

The gigantic object had traveled some distance before coming to a halt.At this moment, it is twisting, transforming from a rigid shell to a living thing.It cracked pale one-eyed eyes and tentacles between the chitin carapace and flesh, and its crazy arms, feet and tentacles surged outward, sweeping towards the living.

"what--!"

Paralle let out a final scream, and then her body and mind disappeared together in this indescribable object that came to life again.

"There is a limit to human ability. In the constant exploration, I discovered the truth, this skin is the cage that imprisoned our great soul. The stronger our power is, the more we will discover the insignificance and insignificance of the human body. Fragile.

"Finally, I got it, got the mystery of the world. From the beginning, we are the ultimate life that surpasses human beings and all creatures!"

Iseus let out a great roar of human voice.After being silent for a while, his consciousness seemed to come back again.The chaotic figure began to take shape, with bat wings on its back, and the dark black torso was like an oval body with folds and folds like a squid. Huge tentacles wrapped around protruding knobs, and six legs protruded from the knobs. Like spider legs.It was headless, with a petal-like neck opening from which emerged a wriggling mass of hairy tentacles.

The Bayelan army chasing the enemy and the fleeing rebels were walking through the black mud with one foot deep and one foot shallow.The drum noise they heard can only be described as insane.Some sounds can only be made by humans, others must rely on the vocal cords of animals, and the feeling of two sounds coming from the same sound source is simply creepy.The beast-like roars and unscrupulous rituals reached their climax at this moment, turning into howls of ghosts and wolves possessed by demons, stirring in the air, like a monstrous wind blowing from the abyss of hell.The chaotic whistling sounds would stop from time to time, and what those hoarse voices chanted was that terrible prayer, which filled the human brain:
"This is our body that rules mankind! In ancient times, we could even enter the universe and travel through the deep sea! This is the sacred form that built great civilization and history."

……

"Now you can go, go to the river, it's safe there," Gilles de Ace, who was riding a skeleton horse, motioned to Joshua, who had become a necromancer, "let go of our Desai, give him Weapons, we are retreating."

Joshua nodded silently, and immediately began to untie.

"?"

After being beaten and captured alive by the completely irresistible enemy, Desai was full of doubts.He lost contact with the main force first, and this former companion caught him, and has been watching the fierce battle and the silent flesh and blood fortress in the distance from the edge of the battlefield.

Immediately afterwards, a strange black swamp spread everywhere, and the central army of the rebel army was attacked by living corpses and fell into chaos.Soon, the rebels on the low hill poured down like a torrent and completely collapsed.

The frozen flesh and blood fortress came alive at this moment.

At this moment, Desai, who witnessed this scene, gained some indescribable mystic knowledge.

This is a hybrid.The twisted and misshapen body requires powerful psychic energy to maintain.It doesn't have a spiritual shield, but it has solid chitin heavy armor and tyrannical flesh and blood. It has infinite strength, and its self-healing ability is extremely amazing, and it can recover from injuries in a very short period of time.

Hybrids have the ability to frighten the enemy and traumatize their minds. As long as they are in a certain range near it or stare at it, human beings will suffer irresistible loss of sanity, hear unspeakable ravings, and eventually fall into irreparable madness.

The red mixed body sprayed out dark green mucus, and the nearby soldiers were suddenly unable to move as if they had fallen into a swamp.The goo clings to the armor and even hisses and burns.

"What's going on here? Jill," Desai was trembling, trying to calm himself, and asked calmly, "What do you know?"

"It's a long story." Jill tilted her head, and there seemed to be a kind smile on her dead face, "Simply speaking, the performance of the selected one has exceeded expectations, and there is no need to use you. Congratulations, gratification Hey!"

kindness?What to use?
As soon as the words fell, a few familiar figures suddenly rushed in the distance.

"Desai, here we come!"

At this crazy moment, a brilliant golden light appeared in front of Desai's eyes.

Lansada, Paxiu and several cavalry rushed towards this side.They fought on the battlefield for a long time, and both the man and the horse were obviously on the verge of exhaustion, almost losing the ability to move.However, the novice nun's body was covered with a pale golden halo, and just looking away made people feel joyful and courageous.

The girl didn't know where the strength came from. She waved a silver staff and swept towards the undead creature blocking her like a gust of wind.Wherever the silver light went, the terrifying undead creatures were all smashed into pieces by the warm spiritual energy.

Gilles de Ace raised the bone giant sword and nodded to Desai calmly: "Everyone has a switch, just find it. This is called, saturated preparation, um,

"like this--"

Jill drove the skeletal army horse, galloped up, received Lansada's blow with heavy armor, and then swung her sword to chop her off the horse.
