Soul echo

Chapter 407 The End of the Plague
Zhong Ye's course of action in Constantia was a straight line, extremely straight.

The animal corpses along the road were all awakened, but just after they woke up, Zhong Ye's back had disappeared.

If there is a house in front of you, jump over it, never turning or deflecting, and pointing directly at the location of the huge living corpse.

As the animal corpses were awakened, the huge living corpse that was still sitting in the pit suddenly opened its eyes—it had repaired its eyes by devouring the animal corpses in the past three days.

The huge living corpse regained the ability to search for enemies, and when it opened its eyes, it saw Zhong Ye standing on the roof not far away, with his coat open, revealing two cross straps filled with alchemy potions.

Zhong Ye silently took out a bottle of potion from his strap, flicked the cork off with his fingers, and threw it backwards.

The body of the bottle was spinning in the air, and the blazing glue in the bottle came into contact with the air and was shaken violently, so a flame suddenly lit up.

call--!
The fire expanded behind Zhong Ye, pushing the air against his coat, and the hem of the clothes fluttered and rattled.

The flames devoured the corpses of animals chasing from behind, and the insects climbing on the roof were also hit by the expanding heat waves and rolled past Zhong Ye's feet.

The huge living corpse obviously still remembered Zhong Ye, and when it saw him for the first time, it roared angrily.

"Ow—!"

The tentacles on his body swung violently, hitting the place where Zhong Ye was standing.

The roof collapsed, and the whole house collapsed after shaking for a moment.

The huge living corpse shook its eyeballs, and its tentacles flew towards the sky chasing the line of sight.

I saw Zhong Ye turning his body in the air, stepping on a whipped hand with both feet, and the relay fell to the chest of the huge living corpse.

Zhong Ye looked up at the head of the huge living corpse, and happened to meet his gaze.

The huge living corpse was swollen all over, with disgusting folds and cysts everywhere, and it looked no different from the demons under the command of the father of fruit.

Its two eyeballs were sandwiched by horizontal flesh, shining with hatred.

Zhong Ye was slightly surprised by this - he actually read their emotions from the living corpses.

However, this doesn't seem to be surprising. The living corpses have amazing learning ability, and their body functions are also quite powerful. It is obviously impossible to say that they only have well-developed limbs and simple minds.

To some extent, living corpses have 'intelligence', but their minds are still quite chaotic, unable to form a self-awareness.

Given enough time to develop, they might become a dark race similar to vampires.

However, they pose far greater threats to humans than vampires, so they must be eliminated.

Although this world is big, it cannot accommodate a race that is better than humans and also feeds on humans.

This time, the giant living corpse learned to be smart, and a dozen tentacles surrounded it from all directions, blocking Zhong Ye's every escape route.

Each tentacle carries tons of strength, even though Zhong Ye is already so powerful, it will still be very uncomfortable to be hit by these tentacles.

Well, as long as you don't get hit!

Turning around and swinging the knife, a few crescent moons connecting end to end appeared within the encirclement of the tentacles, easily resolving the crisis.

Zhong Ye jumped up and landed at the same time as the severed tentacles.

Although the ultimate goal of this trip was to kill the huge zombie, he couldn't kill the zombie until someone else placed the flammable objects at key locations.

Just before, he had three chances to kill the huge living corpse, but he didn't do it, and suppressed his fighting instinct.

Zhong Ye raised his head, and then his heart skipped a beat.

One after another, tiny muscles drilled out from the tentacles, entangled with each other, and condensed into muscle bundles, followed by the skin, which continued to grow.

In just a few seconds, the tentacles cut off by him were reborn.

——Three days ago, this living corpse didn't have this ability!

The tentacles continued to wave and beat continuously, but the huge living corpse also used some of its energy to pick up the surrounding animal corpses and stuff them into its mouth.

The muscles of mastication move, and the upper and lower jaws move.

Click!Click!
Zhong Ye frowned slightly, and suddenly realized something. While dodging the attack of the tentacles, he let go of his perception and used his spiritual energy to observe the huge living corpse.

Then he saw the psychic light burst out of the huge living corpse, distorting the surrounding environment.

If it is said that an extraordinary person is the perfect fit of soul and body, completely fused together, then after becoming a legend, a powerful soul is enough to distort reality and make the surrounding environment operate according to one's own ideas.

It manifests itself as intense radiation!

This radiation, also known as 'aura', is normally invisible to the naked eye.

Normally, the legendary aura of warriors is restrained, and most of them only affect themselves and their surroundings, but this is obviously not the case for the aura displayed by huge living corpses.

After realizing that the huge living corpse had aura, Zhong Ye stayed away from the monster to avoid being hurt by the aura.

Even if he is an extraordinary person, even if he is close to a legend, but the aura ability is quite weird, even the legend can affect it.

If he was a spellcaster, he might cast a soul-protecting spell on himself at this time, but unfortunately, Zhong Ye didn't understand this.

Zhong Ye did not escape from the attack range of the tentacles, and continued to walk around the huge living corpse, slashing coldly from time to time to stimulate the monster.

But because he had already stood on the edge, many tentacles could not attack him, and the huge living corpse roared angrily.

The animal corpses surrounding the huge corpse instantly started to move, rushing towards Zhong Ye's position, like rivers and rivers converging one after another, creating a turbulent wave.

Overwhelming animal corpses rushed in, they crowded together, condensed into high walls and roofs, and surrounded Zhong Ye.

As the encirclement got closer, there was a sharp knife light torn it apart, and then a raging fire burst out, burning the body.

The animal corpses were crowded together, and the flame penetrated into every gap, igniting every animal corpse.

The raging flames ignited, and then painted that brilliant color on the bodies of other living animals.

The flames continued to spread, and the flames soared into the sky!

Zhong Ye walked out of the flames dragging a long knife, and then saw the huge living corpse roaring up to the sky as if it had been stimulated by something.

It swung its tentacles angrily, and slapped the ground beside Zhong Ye, extinguishing the fire abruptly.

Could it still be angry because of the flames?
As if Zhong Ye had realized something, he dodged away from the spot before the living animal corpses surrounded him again.

The tentacles kept chasing and hitting, but every time they failed, they hit the ground.

The surrounding land was compacted, and where there were sewers or cavities beneath it, it collapsed.

No house could withstand such devastation. Under the continuous shock and impact, with the huge living corpse as the center, the houses within a circular range gradually collapsed from the inside out.

While dodging the attack, Zhong Ye would occasionally throw the blazing glue to places where there were many dead animals.

The flame quickly engulfed the body of the living animal corpse, and then grew stronger, but often when the fire progressed to a certain level, the huge living corpse would swing angrily and extinguish the fire.

These actions of it confirmed an idea in Zhong Ye's mind - this living corpse has a certain self-awareness, perhaps very vague, but it will indeed respond to the 'fire'.

This is also as it should be, otherwise, how could it display the ability of a druid and lead the animal corpses in the entire Constantia?

However, for what purpose did it restrain the living animal corpses in Constantia?

Looking at the pothole under it, one can tell that the sewer is not spacious, and it must be extremely difficult to live in it with its size, but before that, Zhong Ye has entered and exited Constantia twice, and has been standing on the city wall to observe, But no trace of it was found.

In other words, when they started to exterminate the living human corpses in Constantia, it reacted and emerged from the ground.

Prior to this, at least one hundred thousand living animal corpses had been suppressed underground by it.

And is this related to the vague consciousness it retains?
