Chapter 023 Undead "Knight"
Dongdong...
There was a knock on the door.
Judging from the distance, it should be another room on the next corridor, not Colin's room.
Soon there was the sound of the door opening.
Colin turned around and listened slightly, and could probably hear a conversation between a man and a woman.
However, the soundproofing here was too good, and Colin could not hear much when the sound came. He could only confirm that someone seemed to have walked into the room over there.
The door closed again...
At the same time, there were knocks on the doors of other rooms in the corridor.
Just like before, I couldn't hear clearly.
"I wish I had brought a stethoscope."
Just as Colin had this thought, he heard a knock on his door.
Is this finally the time to take action?
The thought flashed through his mind, and Colin asked loudly: "Who is it?"
"Sir Colin, it's me, Sister Elisa..."
A sweet voice full of girlishness came from outside the door, and one could imagine that the other person was standing at the door at this moment.
But inconsistent with the voice, Colin vaguely felt as if a malicious gaze flashed past him...
Colin sniffed and smelled a faint scent of something.
He realized.
Next is likely to be the moment when the real intention is revealed.
"My lord, have you fallen asleep?"
"without……"
Before Colin could finish his words, he saw the door being pushed open.
Outside the door, a beautiful girl in a plain white robe was standing there.
She seemed to have just finished bathing, her hair was a little wet, her delicate face was flushed, her emerald green eyes were misty, and she stared straight at Colin like a young girl in love.
"Can I come in for a moment?"
Colin was silent for half a second, with "Time Stagnation" hidden in his sleeve, and nodded - now he was not afraid of the thief taking action, but was afraid that the thief would think about it.
Sister Elisa didn't seem to notice anything. She smiled and walked lightly into the room. She turned her back, closed the door, and then turned back to face Colin.
She hesitated for a moment, then said as if she had made a decision:
"My dear hero, please, please allow me to soothe you from the fatigue of coming to this world..."
As she spoke, the white robe on the girl suddenly fell off and dropped to the ground, revealing her slender figure wearing a thin long skirt underneath.
The curves of her body were faintly visible as her long gown swayed.
It seems that as long as you tear off this piece of clothing, you can glimpse infinite beauty.
but……
Even though Colin knew it was a rotten corpse, he felt nothing in his heart and even wanted to laugh - using this to test the "brave man"?
At least a real person should be used, right? What's the point of using a rotting corpse? Which "brave man" can't stand such a test?
"Hmm~"
Before I could finish complaining, I could faintly hear a high and satisfied moan from the next room...
When I didn't say anything, Colin sighed, the Death Knight is really awesome...
Then he raised the monocle and put it to his left eye socket in front of the other person.
[A corpse whose soul has been extinguished for who knows how long. It may have had a good appearance when it was alive, but now, in the blasphemous magic, it is just a puppet controlled by others, spreading false illusions.]
[Cutting the neck or destroying the head can stop the blasphemous spell. 】
“My lord, what are you doing…” The girl approached Colin, fluttering her beautiful eyes and staring curiously at the monocle on his left eye.
She couldn't see what was displayed above.
"Our glasses are good for my eyesight, and I need them to see things clearly..."
Colin carelessly opened the collar of his coat, put his monocle into his inside pocket, and then searched for something...
"Then we..."
As she spoke, the girl lowered her head shyly, a large blush appeared on her face, and even her ears turned red.
After a pause , she mustered up her courage, raised her head, and was about to say something...
However, her rosy lips, which sparkled with an alluring luster, had just opened slightly, but before she could make a sound, she suddenly stopped...
With a bang.
The beautiful girl's head exploded instantly.
At the last moment, she only had time to see that the "brave man" put the transparent glass into his pocket and took out a "┓"-shaped metal object.
Immediately afterwards, the "brave man" moved his fingers, and a flame flickered in the dark hole...
And then, nothing happened.
The exquisite head exploded into countless pieces like a watermelon falling to the ground.
The headless figure in plain white fell to the ground .
Colin held the "Reverser" with smoke still coming out of the muzzle in his right hand, and stared at the beautiful corpse on the ground with vigilance.
He originally planned to wait a little longer...
But just now, when the other party moved his legs slightly closer, he suddenly felt a strong sense of uneasiness.
The "Fatal Insight" effect has been activated!
So, he no longer hesitated and took the initiative to shoot the other person in the head.
The corpse lying on the ground did not bleed, but quickly decayed and evaporated, emitting a strong and foul-smelling gas, and turned into a skeleton .
This is obviously not what a human being should look like after death.
And at this moment, the world before Colin's eyes also changed dramatically. Everything in the house quickly aged and became desolate and dilapidated, and the air was filled with a dull and unpleasant smell of decay.
At the same time, he also saw that on the left hand side of the corpse, there was a white bone spur as big as a dagger, and the bone spur was full of dark cracks.
It looks like an arm bone...
[An extremely dangerous item. Anyone holding it will suffer from continuous swelling and eventually drowning.]
[The victim stabbed by it will feel like being submerged in water, unable to breathe. ]
"Is this the thing that stabbed me?"
The pupils of Colin's eyes suddenly grew larger, and his pupils became vertical, staring at the thing.
After confirming through the "analytical lens" that there would be no harm in touching the handle of the knife, he picked it up.
The nostrils flared and sniffed the smell above...
Although it was very faint, I still smelled a special scent, which should be emitted by the guy who has been hiding behind the scenes.
but……
How come this was the only corpse that attacked me?
Colin's brows suddenly frowned, he put the things away, sniffed again, his heart skipped a beat, he quickly stepped over the corpse, rushed to the corridor, and kicked open the door of the next room.
Sure enough, there was nothing inside.
The smell of others is gone!
[There seem to be traces of short-distance unilateral teleportation in the house. ]
Not only in this room, but also in several other rooms, the "analytical lens" gave the same answer.
Oh shit!
This guy ran away!
Either you attack from behind or you run away! Are you a real man? Why the hell are you so cowardly?!
Colin gritted his teeth and sprang into action.
The "analytical lens" says it can be transmitted over short distances. Although I don't know how short this "short" is, there should still be a chance.
Thinking of this, he immediately combined the intelligence he had predicted last time and started searching nearby.
After searching for nearly half an hour, he finally found some clues inside an inconspicuous little house outside the church.
A secret entrance is hidden beneath the floorboards of the cabin.
