Chapter 608 Low Temperature Field

After sensing the sharp blade behind him, You Huan's actions did not change.

In full view of everyone, a sharp light that was difficult to see with the naked eye flashed across the zombie's huge monster body.

"Boom!"

The zombie's entire head, half of its shoulder and one arm were separated from its body and fell to the ground with a loud bang!

At the same time, the edge of Witley's sword also created two white air waves in the air.

"..." His expression froze slightly.

The expression of the woman standing not far away, who was also the leader of the camp, also changed.

——I saw a layer of white frost rapidly spreading from the tip of Witley's heavy sword. In the blink of an eye, even his two arms were covered with thick frost!

Under the armor, one could faintly see the terrifying muscles bulging, pushing Whitley to continue swinging his sword forward.

However, there seemed to be an invisible area around the harmless snow-white corpse in front of him, which did not emit any black dust.

Every centimeter you get closer to it, the temperature of the environment drops dramatically.

The extremely low temperature caused the substances in the air to begin to condense rapidly, the armor became stiff and heavy, and the skin and flesh seemed to be all frozen.

The heavy sword moved forward at an increasingly slower speed, as if it was stuck in an invisible quagmire, and finally stopped ten centimeters away from the corpse.

Wheatley realized that if he continued, his entire body would freeze.

——When facing ordinary attacks, he can use the power of the White Knight to break through, but the low temperature of the corpse in front of him is too strange.

In this extremely cold area, everything was close to coming to a standstill. His strength seemed to be frozen, with only one tenth of it being able to be mobilized.

Thinking of this, he decisively sheathed his sword, and with a "bang", he retreated violently to the warm area.

"Shalala..." Layers of frost fell from his body.

Behind him, ordinary people in the camp saw the frost and snow falling to the ground, and as if they remembered something horrible, looks of fear appeared on their faces again.

"Low temperature field... This, this is the power of the ice plague." A strong and sturdy middle-aged man took a step back suddenly, with a fear on his face that was completely inconsistent with his body shape.

"The power that brought the entire region to a standstill, the previous 'cryogenic explosion' event..."

The middle-aged man's incoherent speech caused some of the older people in the camp to show increasingly horrified looks on their faces.

The leader seemed to have recalled all the information about the Ice Plague and immediately ordered: "Everyone, don't act rashly, Witley——"

"It's best not to disturb it." Whitley made a low voice under his heavy mask. "It doesn't look like it wants to fight. It's best to wait for it to leave on its own."

As he spoke, he, who had ten years of experience as a White Knight in the church killing zombies, turned his head and looked at the zombie standing on the zombie's body.

This corpse beast, which didn't look ferocious at all, looked back at him with its light red eyes, full of innocence.

You Huan tried to use his [Cooling Constitution] for the first time, and he was very satisfied with the results of this ability.

This talent is actually a kind of seizure of external energy and movement, which can make the surrounding matter fall into a state of weaker movement.

Although this is not a direct combat capability, it has a strong inhibitory effect on the enemy's behavior, and the upper limit is obviously very high.

If it were an ordinary newly born corpse beast, its [cooling constitution] could only work on a very large range, thus forming a vast low-temperature territory.

But he has a lot of experience in manipulating the field, and can shape this ability into a "cryogenic ring" that is more suitable for combat and surround himself.

Any moving object approaching it would be like being trapped in an extremely low-temperature quagmire, and its movement would be greatly inhibited.

And going one step further, he concentrated the low temperature field on his claws...

Then, anything touched by the claws will be frozen very quickly in a very small area and become extremely fragile.

That's why he had just cut off part of the zombie's body so easily.

This cryogenic claw was enough to break through the defense of the No. 80 monster!

Of course, in addition to the "enchantment" of the cryogenic field, the powerful strength of this body itself was also the basis for him to do this -

After taking a final look at the humans who were all alert, and paying close attention to the woman who was the leader and the powerful knight, he opened his mouth and bit the severed zombie's arm.

"boom--!"

The next moment, everyone couldn't help but slightly widen their eyes and looked up, watching this dazzling white figure in the sun grab a part of a zombie that was five times bigger than itself, and instantly leaped into the air!

"BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!"

After several jumps, the zombie's upside-down head hit the ground again and again. Amid a series of rustling noises, the white fur ball carried the huge trophy and jumped over the three-meter-high wall and disappeared outside the camp.

"…"

It was a long time after the strange figure left that someone in the crowd asked cautiously, "Chief, what should we do now?"

His question was like a fuse, and the crowd exploded with voices:

"That corpse beast has discovered this place. We can't stay here any longer!"

"The zombies came in strange ways this time. Chief, should we move away?"

"Is that corpse beast the descendant of the Ice Plague?! This inherited ability... The master of the Frost Land has returned. We can't get so close to that place!"

The leader listened to the chaotic and panicked sounds in his ears, looked at the messy marks on the ground, and lit a cigarette with an indistinct expression.

"Huh..." After slowly blowing out a smoke ring, she finally spoke, "You are all people expelled from the church. If you are so afraid of a tiny corpse beast like this, how can you survive without the protection of the church?"

The cold but powerful questioning made the crowd quiet, and everyone looked at her, not daring to speak anymore.

"Why are you all looking at me? Have you cleared out the ordinary zombies outside? Have you cleaned up the bloodstains and corpses? Go to work." She lowered her eyes and stared at the orange-glowing cigarette butt in her hand.

"After you finish your work, go pack up your things. We are moving out of here."

As soon as the last sentence was spoken, everyone visibly relaxed and dispersed.

The battle with the ordinary zombies outside the wall had not yet ended. Amid the sound of gunfire, Whitley came over and said in a deep voice: "Their fear is understandable."

"I know, but our situation no longer allows us to be afraid."

The leader pinched out his cigarette and flicked the remaining cigarette butt lightly. The cigarette butt, still emitting orange sparks, fell lightly into the muddy blood on the ground.

——Eighteen years ago, two years after the zombie crisis broke out, a disaster known as the "Cryogenic Explosion" occurred.

With a white corpse beast as the center, low temperatures quickly invaded the area around it. Blizzards fell from the sky and frost formed on the ground. It seemed as if the world had entered an ice age.

It is like a walking natural disaster, wherever it goes, everything is frozen!

Human beings, who already had a hard time surviving, suffered a heavy blow from this disaster.

Many humans who survived the first wave of zombie and corpse beast outbreaks died of hypothermia in the cold outbreak.

Later, the church took action and sent the first group of "White Knights" in history to the center of the frozen land to fight. It took a huge amount of manpower and resources to severely damage the corpse beast and drive it to a remote corner of the world.

The corpse beast, whose strength was reduced due to injury, was subsequently given the code name "Ice Plague" and ranked No. 21.

In this crusade, the church demonstrated the powerful strength of the White Knights for the first time, confirming their claim of "being inspired by the true God" and thus establishing their position as a dominant force.

Even among the many corpse beasts with different abilities, the Ice Plague is undoubtedly the most legendary and bizarre one.

The people in the camp were naturally afraid of it.

However, there was no fear in the leader's eyes, only deep thought:

"If I'm not mistaken, the corpse beast has not completed even one 'step evolution', but its cryogenic field is enough to stop your actions..."

"My strength is now roughly comparable to No. 60. Its low temperature is extremely terrifying." Whitley said solemnly, "With each step of evolution, the strength of these monsters will be greatly improved. It is hard to imagine how powerful it will be after evolution..."

"A powerful new neighbor..." The leader pondered for a moment, then smiled.

"It might be a good thing for us to have such a neighbor."

A lone snow dust worm lay in the blood plasma and listened to their entire conversation.

You Huan, who had already returned to the territory of the previous generation of Ice Plague with the spoils in his mouth, had his eyes slightly moved.

Step evolution, so this is what it means... (End of this chapter)
