Alien Knights

The mutation happened too fast.

The weak woman just now turned into a human-eating monster in the blink of an eye.

Before everyone could move, the woman swallowed the flesh and blood in her mouth, opened her mouth again, and with a crisp creak, the second bite directly opened the opponent's throat. A large number of blood bubbles emerged from the sergeant's mouth, his limbs twitched, and blood spattered on the ground below him.

Alfonso reacted first. He sat up suddenly from the ground, and rushed forward a few steps. The big sword drew a spark on the stone on the ground, and the blade swung a perfect half-moon slash from bottom to top. The sword shadow shone coldly, the blood spattered red, and the monster's head flew into the air.

With the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground, the camp regained its calm.

A church guard crawled to the sergeant's side. His breathing became weaker and his body became colder, causing him to turn around and shake his head.

Sighing inaudibly, Alfonso slowly walked to the monster's corpse, and his followers followed.

Walton kicked the headless body, tilted his head and asked his companions: "Leslie, from your point of view, is this woman a heterogeneous species?"

The boy with the red lines on his forehead knelt down on one knee to examine it, and after thinking about it, he said, "It's not like that."

Holding the big sword, the knight found the woman's severed head in the camp, and turned it at an angle with his toes. Todd leaned over, and with the surrounding firelight, he saw some strange places at the junction of the cervical vertebrae. Not only blood and nerve fluid flowed out, but also some light black things. Curious, he squatted down and observed it carefully. After seeing what it was, he immediately stepped back with numbness.

What kind of light black liquid is that, it is clearly countless black bugs, condensed together!

Leslie walked behind Todd, seeing this scene, a look of surprise appeared on his face. I saw him walking to the side of the knight, whispering something hurriedly.

The priest got closer and heard the words "puppet" and "relief society".

Putting his two-handed sword behind his back, and facing the town, Alfonso said to his subordinates, "Stay here and guard the carriage."

Hearing this, the short and fat man, Walton, and the white-robed woman, Adelina, immediately expressed their objections: "Boss, we're going too!"

"You can't help." The knight moved, but found Leslie standing in front of him.

"What about me? I can always help."

After thinking for a moment, the man hidden behind the iron mask nodded and agreed to the boy's request.

To his surprise, Todd and Karin also came to him and asked to accompany him, perhaps because he remembered something, and finally he agreed to these two to follow him.

A group of four packed their bags, walked out of the gate of the camp, and walked towards the town submerged in flames and howling.

If they hadn't been here once, Todd and Karin would never recognize it again. The scene in front of them actually belonged to the Watch Town, which is famous for its tourism and food.

The fallen tables and chairs blocked the roads of the town, and the scorching red flames ignited the secluded garden. The pools of dark red blood that can be seen everywhere on the ground, and the scattered human remains remind visitors that a tragedy happened here not long ago.

Along the way, no one's voice can be heard, and no one can be seen. The streets were eerily quiet, only the crackling of flames became the only background sound.

After turning a few turns along the alley, and walking along an uphill road for five minutes, the tall and majestic figure of Fort Watcher appeared in the distance at the end of the town.

"If we can get there and find the defenders inside, we will be relatively safe." Todd said to others.

Hush!

Alfonso suddenly put his finger on his lips, motioning everyone to look up.

Karin turned sideways, looked up to the side of the road, gasped, and widened her eyes in shock at the scene in front of her.

A corpse was hung on a tree like stored food. Two blood-stained people squatted on the branches and buried their heads in the chest and abdomen of the corpse.

Taking a step back, the knight planned to find another way around here. But he found the priest behind him, patted himself on the shoulder heavily, and pointed to both sides of the team.

Above and below the ramp, two groups of slow-moving infected came, sandwiching the four-person team.

Surrounded!

The danger approached, causing Todd's temples to thump.

Alfonso turned around and began to examine the terrain around him. A small commercial street built on a hillside cliff road, with trees planted along the cliff on one side and solid townhouses on the other side, there is nowhere to retreat or hide.

Turning around and walking to the door of the nearest house, he touched the building boards of the house with his hands. The walls are made of brick and stone, and the door is made of hard pine. Taking a few steps back, he aimed one shoulder at the gate, an approach run and a collision. The huge impact echoed throughout the street, and the house was shaken slightly by the impact.

but!

The door was not knocked open!

Todd looked in through the crack of the door and finally understood the reason. Behind the door, a bolt made of steel was embedded in the wall and the back of the door, firmly fixing the door panel.

The priest was dumbfounded. Didn’t he say that people in the past never picked up things on the road and never closed their doors at night? ! What does it mean to put such a big iron rod behind the door? !

The sound of slamming the door attracted the attention of the monsters, and roars resounded all around. The enemies on both sides of the road moved faster, and the two guys eating from the tree also jumped down and rushed towards the team. The situation gradually developed in the worst direction.

Alfonso clenched the big sword in his hand and began to count the number of monsters. The number of enemies was about fifty. Although the action was not fast, if they were besieged head-on, it would definitely not be something that could be easily dealt with.

Karin, who was in the team, looked at the scene in front of her, bit her lips tightly, and suddenly took out a dagger from her pocket, and slammed on the door panel frantically, drilling a small hole about two centimeters in size.

Immediately understanding what she wanted to do, Todd grabbed the girl's clothes with his hand, and just yelled "no", the girl disappeared at the door, and the sound of a stone falling to the ground came from the other end of the door. After a while, the heavy door opened.

Alfonso and Leslie first looked at the open door, then took a deep look at Karin.

When Todd entered the house, the first thing he did was to protect the girl behind him, and at the same time he looked warily at the Holy See knight and his followers.

To his surprise, the two who belonged to the Inquisition Inquisition did not ask any questions, as if nothing had happened just now, they turned around and inserted the latch.

Soon, the infected swarmed in, slapping and knocking on the door panels and walls. The four of them faced the only barrier in front of them with their backs facing outward and their faces facing inward.

After another two or three minutes, there was a sound that sounded like a wild animal howling outside the house, which was deafening and pierced the clouds and cracked stones.

The infected outside stopped their figures and stopped attacking.

The floor began to shake underfoot, and dust fell from the wooden beams of the roof.

A humanoid creature with a height of nearly two meters walked slowly from the distance of the street. When passing by the residential houses, he approached the door of the team's hiding place and stopped in his tracks. The space inside the house suddenly became dark, and the moon and flames were blocked by the huge monster outside the door.

After staying for a while, the humanoid creature left and walked towards the direction of Fortress. From the bright red fleshy membrane on his back, vibrations similar to rattlesnake tails could be heard from time to time.

The stagnant infected people moved their bodies again, and followed behind them step by step, walking towards the distance.
