Chapter 870: 852 Immortal

Chapter 870 852. Immortal

It is the right thing to help each other during the journey.

This old knight seemed to be talking casually and sounded like a decent man.

Obviously, even a wandering knight should know more than a group of lumberjacks. What's more, the way Fordlink was hesitant to speak just now made it obvious that his identity was not simple.

Lann was thinking about how to get more information from him.

The old knight himself carried the small shield behind his back, held his flame-shaped sword, and used the tip of the sword accurately and steadily to lift off the coats of the corpses of the lumberjacks on the ground.

Lan En discovered that the upper bodies of these lumberjacks had a strange phenomenon.

Black holes appeared on their bodies.

It was not the wounds left when Fodolink killed them just now, but a simple, bottomless 'hole'.

The largest hole is the size of an orange, and the smallest one is like a cherry.

In the daily context that Lan En is familiar with, "human nature" refers to the comprehensive external expression of a person's empathy, sympathy, and other emotions.

But in Fodolinks words, the [human nature] of this world seems to be a tangible indicator of matter and energy.

In the process of resurrection from the dead, [humanity] will be lost.

It looks very deep, but you can't see the other side of these lumberjacks' skinny bodies through the hole.

I said these undead people have died many times, and their humanity is almost drained from the [Dark Circle].

It is as if the exits of these holes are connected to some non-material aspect of them. What appears to others is the entrance connected to the physical plane.

Mentos and Lan sorted out the existing information in their minds: the local name for this kind of person who has been resurrected from the dead is [immortal]. As the name suggests, the body seems to have incredible immortality.

"Looking at their intact clothes, they must have starved to death here many times. After all, walking up the mountain from here, there are also many undead people who have turned into wandering souls on the way back to the undead settlement."

Foldolink said calmly, and then stopped paying attention to these corpses.

After all, if you continue to pretend, you will look too ignorant.

Lann stuck out his tongue and licked his lips. He felt that the "humanity" in Fodolink's mouth might not be the same thing as the "humanity" in the context he was used to every day.

Those who can understand other people's emotions are naturally good at acting.

With Lan Ens hearing, it was impossible for him to be unable to hear clearly at this distance. But in order to get information, he very skillfully changed his expression to a blank look, and then blinked at the old knight.

Whether they are starved to death or hacked to death, nothing can prevent them from coming back to life.

Foldolink has a good personality. Looking at Lan En's very natural blank expression, he raised his voice slightly and spoke in more detail.

They probably didnt dare to go back, so they died here many times. With the loss of humanity, they became delirious, their memory deteriorated, and they even forgot about their own deaths.

Lan En nodded silently, indicating that he heard clearly this time.

There are many and big [Dark Rings]. It seems that they have died many times.

What? I didnt hear clearly. What did you just say?

Without this kind of thing, a person's cognitive ability and memory will be severely damaged, and he or she may not even remember that he has experienced a painful death.

After the human nature of the immortal is completely lost, he will become this kind of wandering soul.

The important thing is loss. Mentos highlighted this word in red.

Because if the resurrection process of the undead has to 'consume' humanity, then just kill them a few times and it will be fine.

But since it is loss, it means that the loss of human nature is only a phenomenon that occurs in the process of immortality.

The resurrection of the undead will cause them to lose their humanity, but even if their humanity is exhausted, it will not affect their physical resurrection.

The result was a group of lumberjack ghosts lying in front of the two men.

Is this some kind of curse?

From Lan Ens perspective, only curses can do such unreasonable things.

. And it sounds like there are a lot of [immortal people].

Huge curse.

Lan En couldn't help but grind his back molars. This feeling of dj vu, as if he had just arrived in Yharnam, made him feel nervous.

The lycanthropy in Yanam City was considered by him to be a super-large curse at the time.

Fodorinck looked at the corpse on the ground for a while, his old and deep eyes seemed to have many thoughts and emotions.

But that was all. He shook his head heavily at the corpse, put the flaming sword behind his back, turned around and prepared to leave.

He waved to the witcher behind him without looking back.

"Come on, I want to go back to the undead settlement to supply supplies. You can follow me, 'young master'. Although it is poor and chaotic, it can still handle some undead people who suddenly turned into wandering souls, so it is considered safe."

He teased Lan En's ignorance about the undead without any malice.

In his eyes, there is no immortal person in this world today. He should really be a 'young master' who is pampered and well-protected.

After all, Prince Lothric has delayed for too long.

The [Fire Passing Ceremony] should have been held long ago.

Lan En kept up with Fodolink's pace smoothly and asked questions without leaving any trace.

Just put their bodies here?

Can't we deal with these immortal people?

Even if they are smashed into pieces and buried in the ground, the undead will still come back to life. Its useless no matter what.

Foldolink felt that he already understood Lan En's identity, so he could accept a certain degree of "ignorance" he showed.

"But I just released a lot of blood from them. Losing body fluids can slow down the resurrection process of the undead a lot."

Lan En's brows relaxed a little, and he finally had a way to target the undead.

Whether it's bloodletting? Then my [Air Blade] must be considered a professional counterpart.

The "immortality" of the undead is not their fault, but their fault lies in the fact that after they die and lose their humanity, they become wandering souls with indiscriminate and strong impulses to attack.

Killing ordinary people is considered killing. But if the people killed were also immortals, the result would be like the group of lumberjacks Lan En faced just now.

The wandering souls kill more and more, it's like a mad disease spread by killing people.

Finally, if it cannot be contained.

Lane and Mentos thought about the scene together.

Although the knights in this world seem to be extraordinary, the basis of the rule of the feudal dynasty is ultimately a large number of civilians.

Judging from the organizational power of the feudal era, if the undead ghosts broke out, it would probably be like destroying the country, right?
