Chapter 779: Arriving at the Castle

Crack. Crack.

With some bone-cracking noises that could freeze one’s blood, that rotten corpse got to its feet slowly in the swamp. Its head was lowering. Its left arm was bending. Its right leg was also slightly bending. Its standing posture was extremely spooky. It looked like a marionette.

“It turns out those movies are not fictional. Zombies do exist,” Duck Emperor said in panic.

“That…that must be the vampires’ puppet, which was thrown here after its blood had been sucked up.”

Camel could not stop cold sweating. He always knew a man would become a puppet after his blood had been sucked up by vampires. It was certainly only hearsay, but the hearsay differed a lot from what actually happened. Vampires’ puppets did not have sharp teeth. Instead, they were like this freak right in front of him: rotten, stink, yet alive.

Crack. Crack.

More bone-cracking noises came. It was so spooky that their hair stood on end.

Then, one after another, completely rotten corpses got to their feet in different parts of the swamp. They all had bad breath, as if they had just woken up from deep sleep.

“Mother ducker, there are so many of them all of a sudden! There are at least 100!” Duck Emperor’s eyes were so wide open that they were almost round.

Camel’s legs were shivering. He had not prepared for this at all. He had never thought vampires’ puppets were such horrifying creatures. He felt like he had already reached hell. The air was full of the pungent stench of death.

When seeing two of his companions from the Silver Wing Mercenary Group were also among those rotten corpses and had become a part of them, Camel could not stand anymore. His nerves broke down. “Ah!” After a shout, he turned around to run away from the Dark Castle desperately.

As soon as he moved, the rotten corpses around moved as well, as if activated. Making threatening gestures and with hissing noises in their throats, they jumped on Camel like a bunch of evil ghosts. Their harmless look was totally gone. At the moment, they were hideous, horrifying creatures from hell.

“Help him, goddamn jerk! He would die!” Duck Emperor said anxiously.

“Help him?” Xiao Luo responded with a question, narrowing his eyes.

Eh.

Seeing the indifference in Xiao Luo’s eyes, Duck Emperor realized it was too naïve. If Camel had stayed with Xiao Luo, he might still have a chance to survive. However, he turned around to flee. He gave that chance up himself. Xiao Luo would never run over to save a mercenary who wanted to kill him.

“Okay. Let him stew in his own juice. I have no problem with that,” Duck Emperor said. Then it looked at Camel.

Camel tried his best to run, but he was injured. Thus, he could not exert all of the strength of a Martial Spirit. He was fast, but he was not fast enough. The rotten corpses all swarmed towards him. One of them jumped on him first and landed on his back. Opening its mouth with yellow and black teeth, it was going to bite him on the neck.

Puff.

Blood spurted. Camel screamed painfully and flung his back forcefully. “Go away! Get off me!”

That was a powerful fling. The rotten corpse on his back was sent flying like a cannon and fell upon four or five of its companions.

Camel ran away desperately. Blood kept oozing out where he had been bit on the neck. A sharp pain was spreading from the wound to other parts of his body. Wherever the sharp pain reached, his nerves would start to jump and his muscles would tremble out of control. Little by little, he felt feeble all over his body.

‘Was that ptomaine?’ Camel thought with fear while running.

All of a sudden, he felt a pain in his foot. He lowered his head and found a rotten corpse had poked its rotten head out of the swamp under his feet and bit his ankle. It was just one bite, but a big piece of flesh was bit off. After such a blow in the middle of running, he lost balance and flopped onto the ground immediately.

As soon as he fell to the ground, a big group of rotten corpses swarmed over. Some of them bit his neck, some gnawed his arm, and others tore at his thighs. Those yellow and black teeth could be compared to sawtooth. They could bite a piece of flesh off and chewed it powerfully.

“Ah!”

Camel’s scream was extremely shrilling. He sounded totally desperate. On his deathbed, Camel saw clearly how his belly was torn open, and his intestines and liver were pulled out. Those rotten corpses shoveled them into their mouths and wolfed them down. Some even gorged their food down without chewing. Their necks swelled when they were trying to swallow the food.

“That… That is mother ducking brutal…” The sight froze Duck Emperor’s blood. It wanted to puke.

Xiao Luo was not affected by the sight. Camel had tried to kill him more than once. He had shown enough mercy by not killing Camel with his own hands. Besides, if Camel had managed to escape, he would not kill him either. He would just let the heavens decide on Camel’s life or death.

Growl.

At this moment, a rotten corpse screamed and jumped on him in a threatening gesture.

Xiao Luo did not even move. The True Inner Force he gave off instantly shook the rotten corpse into pieces that scattered here and there on the ground, as if it had been minced by a meat grinder.

Bang!

Then he stomped. The magnificent True Inner Force rippled around with his foot being the center. Those ripples penetrated through the rotten corpses’ bodies silently, and hundreds of them were smashed and fell to the ground, no longer showing any sign of a living creature.

“A seckill?”

Duck Emperor was extremely shocked. “Mother ducker, were those zombies so weak?”

“They were weak indeed. Only spooky at sight,” Xiao Luo answered plainly.

Duck Emperor felt relieved after giving it a thought. “Yeah. The Sucking Blood Clan doesn’t have high attainments. They are far worse than you. Those zombies were creatures of theirs after they sucked the blood. Naturally, they were weak.”

Xiao Luo did not respond. He just hit the road to the Dark Castle again.

After going across the swamp, he saw an ancient castle that looked like those castles in the western part of the Original World standing in front of him. The castle had four high walls around it. Beyond the walls, there were many palaces. The whole castle was shrouded in a mist. Although it was a sunny day, the sunlight seemed to be unable to reach there. It looked like a different world, where darkness was more highly valued. It even felt colder there.

As soon as he stepped onto the space before the castle, that giant gate was open.

Two lines of clansmen of the Sucking Blood Clan holding torches ran out of the gate and surrounded Xiao Luo.

Whoosh. Whoosh. Whoosh.

On the high wall of the castle, the elders of the Sucking Blood Clan showed up, looking down with their turbid eyes.

Lester and Ghost, whose injuries had fully recovered, also showed up on the wall, while Louis swaggered out of the gate. He was slightly startled at the sight of Xiao Luo, but the startle on his face turned into a greedy smile very soon. “I heard disturbances coming from the swamp. I thought it was some exotic beast, but it’s you, pig. What a surprise! What a pleasant surprise!”
