"So handsome." The three girls in the team cast admiring eyes.

Edgar smiled calmly: "It's just a trivial matter. Don't disperse the formation. Try to reach the first corrupted village as soon as possible and set up a camp."

"That's right. My backpack is so heavy." The shield guard chuckled.

Because of Edgar's perfect performance, everyone's morale was boosted and they accelerated to Oat Village.

Oat Village is the closest village to Maple Leaf Territory. Field did not recapture it. After all, Simon is not a serious person. Having a corrupted village can reduce the possibility of him sending spies.

Ophelia usually stays here, so the density of rotten corpses is not large.

"Sure enough, he has some strength. He is no longer a rookie adventurer. This guy has reached the third level of fighting spirit."

Field saw it clearly in the sky. As a corrupted creature, the corrupted black crow can see through the gray fog and has much better vision than humans.

"Besides, his sword... is probably a divine weapon." Field laughed, "He's really rich, worthy of being an adventurer."

After two hours of marching, the group killed three or four waves of zombies and arrived at Oat Village.

"Corrupted creatures are not that great."

"I heard before that there are hundreds of rotten corpses when they appear. Today, the largest wave of corpses is less than a hundred."

"This northern province is lame~ It's not as dangerous as the dungeon."

Edgar killed the rotten corpses that ran out of the village with a sword: "You're right, there are only a few types of attacks by rotten corpses, nothing more than biting and pouncing. The monsters I have seen are better than rotten corpses... Forget it, I won't say more."

The young man looked vicissitudes, mysterious and vicissitudes, and the girls were fascinated.

"Thanks to you along the way." The captain thanked sincerely.

"Thank you, brother Edgar." Little Loli Jenna bowed deeply.

"Why are you saying this? We are a team, and we should help each other. I can't wait to eat the food you made."

Everyone walked into the village in a harmonious atmosphere.

However, as soon as they walked in, they were surprised to find that the fog lights were already on.

"What's going on? Is there anyone who has the same idea as us?" Edgar was shocked.

"This is already the camp of the Graycastle family." A maid, holding a sword and shield, said vigilantly, "It belongs to the nobles' territory, please leave quickly."

"Is that so? Sorry to bother you, we will leave now." The captain did not dare to get entangled with the nobles and was about to leave.

"Wait, there are so many houses here, it won't be a problem if we are given a courtyard to repair it." Edgar was dissatisfied.

A village with walls is much safer than camping in the wild.

"Ignorant fool, the dignity of the nobles cannot be offended."

The maid stepped on the ground without saying a word, and the long sword in her hand stabbed out quickly, drawing a bright arc in the air.

"Hmph, don't bully the weak by relying on your noble status."

Edgar did not show any panic in the face of the long sword, and curled his palms. He sideways to avoid the attack of the long sword and grabbed the maid's wrist.

"So fast!"

Before the maid could react, Edgar slapped her palm. The strong impact hit the maid's heart and sent her flying.

"Enough, you dare to hit my people!"

Mi Lei heard the fighting and hurried over. Seeing that it was the Hunter Adventure Group, she frowned in disgust.

Edgar spread his hands innocently: "She started it first."

"Rude, kneel down and talk to Miss Mi Lei. Our lady is the second lady of the Graycastle family." The maids beside Mi Lei raised their staffs and swords.

"Yes...it's the Earl's daughter!"

"The Earl of Graycastle is the largest investor in the Adventurer's Guild."

Everyone was shocked.

"I told you not to talk about my family outside. I'm an adventurer!" Mirei glared at her maids in dissatisfaction, and turned to drive everyone away, "Of course, you dirty guys, I allow you to camp outside the village."

"Hey, you're going too far!"

Before everyone finished speaking, they heard a low roar from the corpse.

All of them turned their heads and saw a lone corpse standing not far from them.

Due to the effect of the fog lights, the corpse made a slight burning sound, but it did not attack or run away. Instead, it stared at the adventure team with its gray eyes.

As if being stared at by the devil, invisible terror enveloped everyone present.

"This corpse feels a bit strange." Edgar was the fastest to dispel the haze in his heart and drew his sword: "No, the smell is obviously that of an ordinary corpse."

"Kill it with one arrow. I always feel uncomfortable being watched." A scout raised his bow and arrow.

"This is not the territory of the Graycastle family."

Just at this moment, the corpse slowly opened his mouth under the shocked eyes of everyone, and said in a hoarse and terrifying voice: "This is your burial place. I have seen your death. Try to unite, don't fight among yourself, don't abandon your teammates, only struggling prey can make me happy."

"I will reward you with three days of life. After three days, I will take your life myself."

After that, the corpse slowly retreated and disappeared in the gray fog.

Field watched from the side and laughed: "Hahaha, what is Xiao Feilong doing? How can she say such a stupid style?"

"Forget it, anyway, I let Ophelia do it, let's see what she is going to do."

In Field's opinion, this matter is stupid, but the people in the adventure group obviously don't think so.

They looked at each other and could see each other's uneasiness. They didn't even step forward to catch the corpse and interrogate it.

"What was that just now? It feels a little strange."

"A rotten corpse can actually speak? I've never heard of it."

"Could it be... the rumor is true?" Mirei rubbed her smooth chin, her eyes drooping.

"What rumor?"

Edgar strode forward and asked with a frown.

"Who are you? How dare you ask our lady?" The maids came to their senses and hurriedly drove him away.

"That's enough. I've said that when I'm adventuring, I'm not a noble lady."

Milei was confused for a moment, and even forgot that the adventure group in front of her was the pariah she mentioned: "It's a rumor about the North Demon. This is widely rumored among our nobles."

"It is said that the North was once the place where Queen Xiyue imprisoned the demons. And Baron Field, after entering the North, released the demons, made a deal with the demons, and became the demon's running dog."

"Baron Bull and his family died in the North Province because they refused to submit to Field."

"I didn't believe it before, but I saw such a weird rotten corpse, the rumor is likely to be true."

Edgar cleared his throat: "Now is not the time to study the rumor, we should take this matter seriously."
