Chapter 1222 – 1222 The Pursuit

1222 The Pursuit

The sun was high in the sky.

In the middle of the Empire, Mo Jiawei was leading a team of players as they ran through the dense forest.

The trouble was that they still needed to escort the rare ores and materials along the way.

Brothers, hold on a little longer. The entrance to the underground world is right in front of us. Those dogs won't be able to catch up.

Mo Jiawei waved his hand and tried to boost the morale of the team, but he could not help but curse in his heart.

Those troublesome feudal lords!

They were really dogs!

After the game prompted that the Land of Plague had fallen out with the Empire, Mo Jiawei was also implicated.

Lord Chadwick suddenly turned hostile and backstabbed Mo Jiawei, catching him off guard. They took over a large number of supplies that they had temporarily stored in Lincoln City, and even the raw materials for the enlightenment stone that they had just purchased not long ago were also deducted.

This was not the end. Lord Chadwick personally led his men to pursue Mo Jiawei.

He had been chasing them all the way until now!

Lord Chadwick's ancestors were known for their bravery and wariness. His ancestors had once conquered large areas of territory for the Empire.

Naturally, Chadwick was unwilling to give up such an opportunity to make his family famous again. He chased after them all the way until they entered a dense forest.

My Lord, do we still need to continue chasing? They'll be leaving the territory soon.

Chase!

There was a bit of eagerness in Chadwick's eyes.

It had been a long time since he had enjoyed the thrill of chasing prey.

Previously, he had also invested in the construction of the mage tower.

He didn't expect that the Land of Plague would dare to openly oppose the Empire!

Ah

Chadwick sneered in his heart.

This was also a good thing.

Once the treasonous enemy was taken down, his territory would not only be able to harvest a large number of ores and materials, but it could also restore the reputation of the Chadwick family!

Fang Heng?

The Land of Plague that has been spreading like wildfire in the Empire recently?

And not forgetting the sacred tree? It had resisted the barbarian invasion by itself.

But that was all! The rumors from the outside world could not be taken seriously!

Seeing Mo Jiawei's team being chased all the way, Chadwick's self-confidence was extremely inflated.

He might as well charge into the Land of Plague and take Fang Heng's head in one go!

While Chadwick was thinking excitedly, he suddenly frowned.

Eh?

What was the situation in front?

The frontline troops chasing the enemy suddenly slowed down their attack speed.

After a short period of silence, the team in front stopped moving forward and fell into great chaos.

Vaguely, Chadwick seemed to hear the screams from the front Army.

What was going on?

It seemed that there was no head-on battle with the enemy.

Could it be a trap?

What's the situation?

His assistant reported immediately, Sir, please calm down. We need time to confirm the situation ahead.

Chadwick frowned and motioned for the team behind him to stop.

Looking around at the surrounding trees, Chadwick faintly smelled danger.

Chi! Chi Chi Chi Chi!

A faint sound came from the surrounding bushes.

What is it?

Chadwick reflexively looked to the right.

Ah!

Before Chadwick could see anything, suddenly, one of the Empire's soldiers in the team let out a shrill scream. He sat down, hugged his thigh, and screamed in pain.

What?

What happened to him?

I don't know. It suddenly became like this

The Empire's soldier who screamed had a terrifying expression on his face. His body twitched uncontrollably and he covered his neck.

The surrounding soldiers had never seen such a strange scene before. For a moment, they subconsciously took a few steps back, not daring to get too close.

An adjutant came forward, squatted down, and forcefully pried away the soldier's hand that was covering his neck.

Upon closer inspection, the soldier's exposed neck was wriggling slightly.

It was as if something was wriggling under his skin.

The Empire's soldier's eyes were bleeding.

Chi!

The adjutant waved his dagger and cut through the soldier's outer skin.

Red blood seeped out of the wound.

Worm?!

The surrounding soldiers saw purple bugs in the wound!

With just a quick glance, the bugs followed his skin and spread deep into his body.

What was that?

The soldiers could only feel cold sweat breaking out on their backs.

Ah!

Suddenly, another shout rang out.

In just a short moment, the entire team was filled with screams.

Seeing the comrades around them fall in an extremely strange way, constantly letting out screams and wails, the morale of the entire team took a huge hit.

The army of 500 to 600 soldiers seemed to be cursed, and large groups of soldiers fell, stuck in place.

Chadwick was also panicking, and his face was slightly pale.

He turned to the accompanying bishop of the Holy Court Church and asked, What's going on?

It's the evil curse of the undead. Everyone, retreat! Be careful to avoid the source of the curse!

It was the first time Bishop Buno had encountered such a situation. He was a little flustered and immediately took out the Book of Creation to cast God's grace to save his team.

The golden holy light shone on the soldiers who were wailing in pain, but the holy light skill could only relieve the pain for a moment.

An even greater pain followed!

Insects! Be careful, there are insects!

In the chaos, an adjutant shouted.

He saw with his own eyes that purple maggots were crawling out of the dead soldiers' bodies!

Be careful of your feet, there are bugs crawling on the ground! Those purple worms! Don't let them climb onto your bodies!

Everyone turned pale with fright. After the prompt, they immediately came to a realization and looked at the muddy ground around them.

Chadwick also looked at the muddy road under the warhorse.

Upon closer inspection, he found that there were many purple maggots crawling quickly along the ground.

A soldier was unable to dodge in time and could only watch helplessly as a purple worm burrowed into his body through his feet.

Save me! Save me!

The party fell into even greater chaos!

In the wild, the surrounding weeds had already reached his calf, and it was even more difficult to distinguish the wandering insects in this environment.

A look of horror appeared on Chadwick's face.

What kind of insect was this? Why had he never seen them before?

The bishop of the Holy Court Church, Buno, had the same reaction as Chadwick. His face was filled with surprise, but more than that, he was at a loss.

When did the undead's curse power become so strong?

Why had it never been recorded in the records of the Holy Court?

Why did the holy light's dispelling and healing spells not work?

The deputy general saw that the situation was bad and immediately reported, My Lord, this area is too strange. Let's retreat first.

Chadwick's expression changed a few times, and he suddenly had the intention to retreat in the face of such a strange enemy.

Pass down my order, we won't pursue them. Retreat!

Chi, Chi Chi!!

Before the order was given, the entire forest in the area ahead started to make a rustling sound.

Following that, large groups of Lickers emerged from the forest and charged toward the Empire's feudal lords.
