Ark of the Immortal

"Xiaomei! Xiaomei!"

The father came to Melantha, picked up Melantha with both hands, quickly returned to the vehicle, and protected Melantha with his body.

The infected person who was knocked to the ground by the guard struggled to get up, but was hit on the joints by two sticks.

"ah!"

Howling in pain, the infected person lost the ability to move.

When the guard captain saw the wound on Melanza's hand, he felt a chill in his heart. Regrets and apologies flooded into his heart, and he hit the infected person harder.

Although the guards reorganized the defense line, the infected people who were coming one after another were unable to rush to the innermost part. But they are also human beings after all, and as human beings they will get tired and get injured.

However, it is obviously unrealistic for about ten guards to stop all the infected people.

Therefore, the guard captain could only arrange for Melanza and her family to get into the car and leave quickly.

But the energy bomb just exploded next to the vehicle, and several more energy bombs broke the vehicle's tires. With the shriveled tires, even if it started, it would be impossible to get on the road.

Melanza's family entered a dilemma of life and death.

The mother and father were temporarily lost because of Melanza's injury.

This is no ordinary wound! Everyone could see the Originium crystals on the infected person's arms and nails.

Melanza's wound came into contact with the Originium Crystal, which meant that she would definitely be infected.

Now, Melanza is already one of the infected.

Although there is no sign yet, the Source Stone will take root in her body, constantly eroding her body and consuming her will.

Melanza had also learned about the Origin Stone in school, and was stunned when she noticed the pain in her forearm.

My mind went blank, and my whole person was captured by fear.

But soon, the screams around her brought Melanza back to consciousness.

The guards could no longer hold on. The first guard had already been stabbed in the shoulder by the infected, and was torn into pieces by the infected who swarmed up next.

That gap was facing Melanza's family.

The guard captain turned around helplessly and blocked himself in front of the family.

It is only natural thing to collect people's money and eliminate disasters for them.

"Master, you go first, we will arrive soon."

The guard captain shouted twice, calling the other two guards who were less stressed to escort Melantha and the others on foot.

"Brownie! Cheech! You two take the master and they go first!"

"Okay, okay!"

In a panic, her father protected Melanza, holding her mother's hand with his other hand and running backwards.

The two guards also turned back to help cover the family's retreat.

The guard captain stepped forward and used his body to fill the gap left by the two retreating guards.

They are just ordinary guards, but they were also soldiers. In the etiquette culture of Victoria, following the rules is also an important part.

After you sign a contract and get money, you have to do things for the money.

Besides, as long as the master and the others go far enough, the guards don't need to use their lives to protect them.

"Brothers! Fight and pull at the same time!"

The guard captain used the iron rod in his hand to smash the hand bones of an infected person, jumped back two steps, and called on his brothers to advance and retreat with him.

The group of people worked together to retreat while being surrounded by the infected.

Fortunately, the infected person is not too fast yet, and his escape route is still safe.

Melanza's family has arrived at the exit of the residential area.

As long as they kept running along the road in front of them, they would reach the bustling area after about two or three kilometers, and they also saw the flashing police lights in the distance, and security personnel were rushing towards them.

"Soon, we'll be there soon! Let little Melanza protect her wounds and don't bleed too much!"

Escort Brownie gasped as he cheered little Melantha on.

"Come on, little Melanza, don't give up!"

Melanza nodded frantically.

But for most people, seeing hope means they need to overcome a difficulty.

Just like playing a game, generally speaking, you have to defeat a BOSS to reach the end of the level.

The brown-black energy bomb came from behind and hit Brownie's back.

Brownie was hit by the energy bomb, with a large hole in his protective suit, and the entire skin on his back was scorched.

He himself staggered, unable to steady himself after being hit, and fell to the ground.

And two Molotov cocktails passed over the heads of Melanza and others, and shattered on the way they ran.

The burning liquid was scattered all over the floor, shocking Melantha and her family to the point where they immediately stopped.

Looking back, you can see a group of infected people pouring out from the other road. When they saw Melanza and others, they immediately attacked them.

"No, run!"

Cheech knew that there was no way to survive if he stopped here. So he picked up Melanza's mother, who almost collapsed on the ground, and pushed the three of them to continue running forward.

And he himself pulled out the long knife hanging on his waist, ready to attack the infected who rushed up at any time.

But the infected people strangely did not run straight towards Melanza and the others, but scattered in all directions, as if there were natural disasters chasing them behind them.

"Run! You can't beat me, no! I can't beat you!"

"That's a monster! He can't die! Run! Don't block me!"

"Get out of my way! I don't want to die!"

A series of screams and pushing occurred among the group of infected people running out from the other road.

And just behind the crowd of infected people, a figure covered in fire could be vaguely seen.

It wasn't until the blade of the knife was inserted straight into the chest of an infected person who had no time to run away, and half of his body was torn apart, that the person who rushed out of the crowd of infected people was seen.

The guy who was infected and turned into a monster.

The black robe had been burned and curled up into a ball. There were traces of flames coming out from the gaps in the armor, and pieces of glass were inserted into the gaps in the armor. But he could still feel his gaze through the cracks in his helmet.

The blood had already dyed the entire armor red, and the gauntlet holding the handle of the knife seemed to be soaked in a pool of blood. Scarlet blood flowed downwards from the blade.

But he still walked steadily among the infected, using the rusty sword in his hand to ruthlessly harvest the lives of all ignorant people who dared to attack him.

He walked into hell, but hell fled.

"A monster is coming, you run away first!"

Cheech pushed Melanza and the others forward and away, staying where he was, preparing to bear the wrath of this monster that rushed out from the crowd of infected people.

But Melanza recognized the man. She was stunned for a moment, and then shouted in a crying voice.

"Teacher! Teacher, I'm here!"

The man heard Melanza's voice, turned his head and saw Melanza.

The undead man's slow thinking could barely distinguish the voice, and he also recognized his disciple.

Cheech turned back and glanced at Melanza. It seemed that her young lady recognized this monster?

The undead man stepped forward and walked towards Melanza, putting the sword in his right hand into its scabbard.

Qiqi's heart tightened, but he still felt uneasy and stood in front of the undead man's path.

boom!

He didn't even see how the undead man took action. The next second he found himself flying into the air, followed by a huge pain in his abdomen, and then he fell heavily to the ground.

"Teacher! Teacher!"

Not even caring about the wounds on her hands, Melanza broke away from her father's arms, faced the undead man, and stood in front of him.

"Xiao Mei!"

The mother subconsciously wanted to hold Melanza, but her father held her back.

Her father could see clearly that Melantha should know the undead, and the armored man whom Melantha called her teacher also put away his weapon.

"Teacher, are you looking for me? Let's go to the city together! You are injured!"

Melanza subconsciously wanted to reach out and hug the undead. But as soon as she got close to the undead man, she smelled an extremely strong smell of rust. Only now did she see the undead man's condition clearly.

The armor on various parts of his body had been deformed by spells and various blunt objects. A piece of his breastplate was also broken, and there was even a knife stuck in his chest.

Only the man under the helmet remained calm and silent, as if he was not injured at all.

Melanza was a little at a loss. She tried to reach out and pull out the knife from the undead man's chest, but she saw the undead man shook his head.

"It's just a wound."

I saw him squatting down in front of Melantha. The squatting undead man was a little shorter than Melantha.

His eyes paused on the arm in Melanza's hand, and then he spoke.

"You're not dead, that's good. I have something for you."

He reached out and took out a small item from the small bag on his waist.

The undead man lowered his head and looked over. He saw the blood on his gauntlet turning the badge red. He subconsciously wanted to pull the black robe behind him to wipe away the blood.

But the black robe had long been burned to ashes by the Molotov cocktail.

The undead man paused for a moment, then Melanza handed over a handkerchief.

"Teacher, use mine."

The lavender handkerchief exuded a pleasant smell, but it was a pity that the undead had no sense of smell at all.

It is the smell of Melantha's commonly used perfume, which she mixed with the spices she chose herself.

"Open."

The immortal pointed at the kerchief and asked Melanza to open it.

Melanza obediently unfolded her handkerchief.

"This is a gift."

The undead man placed the badge in his hand on Melanza's unfolded handkerchief.

"Keep it."

Melanza wiped the blood from the badge in her hand with a square towel, and carefully tried to observe what pattern was engraved on the badge.

The badge was very exquisite and made of precious metal. However, it is difficult to distinguish the pattern under the infiltration of blood.

The immortal stopped Melanza from looking at the gifts here.

"Turn back and run."

The undead man looked back.

The infected people who had just been forced back by his killings had gathered together again as more infected people came up from behind, watching him eagerly.

The danger has not left, there are still many infected people coveting the lives of Melanza and the undead.

They want to kill this monster to expel their own cowardice.

17. "The Last Fire"

"Let's go together!" Melanza reached out and took the undead man's hand.

The cold gauntlets were warmed by the blood of the enemy. Although it is a bit physically uncomfortable to start with. But Melanza still held the immortal's hand tightly.

She was afraid, afraid of losing him.

"The security forces of Shangcheng District are right in front! It won't take long for us to be safe!"

Melanza looked at the immortal with hopeful eyes.

"When the time comes, teacher, you can teach me swordsmanship every day, and I will buy you as much firewood as you want!"
