Chapter 5041: 5.0793 Corpse Puppet Guide

The townspeople of Royal Estate Town all revealed expressions of terror, retreating several steps in unison.

Numerous townspeople huddled together, packed tightly. Aside from their heavy breathing, it seemed that in an instant, there was no other sound in the world.

On a field of four to five hundred people, there was now a deathly silence, so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.

The girl beside Qiao Mu was nervously pinching the corner of her clothes, then suddenly turned to look at Qiao Mu.

At this moment, Qiao Mu, in the eyes of others, appeared to be a woman in her early thirties with a face full of freckles.

Her image had become so bad, yet Qiao Mu was helpless against this transformation talisman.

This transformation talisman was too random; it changed however it pleased, and no matter what, it always resulted in something ugly...

"A-Auntie," the girl timidly called Qiao Mu.

Qiao Mu instantly felt like she'd been cursed, sweeping a cold glance at the girl.

A-Auntie?

Jade-like and adorable Lord Qiao Qiao was actually called "Auntie"?

Who's your auntie? Your whole family's your auntie!

The round-faced girl didn't understand why Qiao Mu was looking at her with such a strange gaze. She timidly whispered, "A-Auntie, c-can we still escape?"

Qiao Mu glanced at her. "At a moment of life and death, naturally... even if there's only a sliver of hope, one must fight with their life."

The round-faced girl nodded, secretly pulling out a chopping knife from behind her waist, muttering, "A-Auntie, I think these people aren't decent at all. Later, let's seize the moment and rush, rush out."

Qiao Mu looked at the chopping knife in her hand, secretly twitching her lips.

In the little stoic's view, having the courage to face death was enough. At least among the people she was about to save, at least some dared to fight against fate.

Zuo Lanshan glanced at the things in the iron cage, lowering his voice to ask Qiao Mu, "Little Qiao, what are those things in the cage?"

He always felt that after waking up from a hundred years of hibernation, the entire world seemed to have changed slightly from before.

He had never seen such ugly creatures before, roaring and gasping in cages, neither human nor beast, giving an indescribable feeling.

Qiao Mu glanced at him, then silently took out a booklet from her inner world and lightly patted it into Zuo Lanshan's hand. "Study this carefully when you have time. This world is very different now compared to before your hibernation."

Zuo Lanshan inexplicably shivered, a thought flashing through his mind: Does this stoic-faced girl have a peculiar fondness for handing out small booklets?

He opened the booklet titled "Corpse Puppet Guide" and saw a drawing of a decaying corpse on the first page, with a line of small text below it:

Primary Corpse Puppet - Loves to bite people, low speed of corpse poison propagation, very slow movement.

Zuo Lanshan's hand trembled again. The corpse puppet drawn on the first page of the booklet was truly lifelike, as if it was about to leap off the paper. If he were to study it in the middle of the night, his heart would probably take a big hit.

He quickly slammed the booklet shut with a "thwack" and turned to give Qiao Qiao a benevolent smile.

The little stoic glanced at him. "These two in front of us have only evolved to Intermediate Corpse Puppet at most."

However, two Intermediate Corpse Puppets were already enough to scare a group of mortals.

When mortals saw such terrifying things, they would surely be too scared to even walk.
