Gate of the Cross

Chapter 33 Detective

Listening to Gene's question, the Snow Dragon Soul nodded, "I've heard that anyone can learn to defend against magic attacks, but its role is relatively simple, just like its name. It only defends magic attacks, but it can't defend against physical attacks. The advantage is that it doesn't consume magic."

"It seems to be a little useful, but it doesn't feel very useful." Gene thought for a moment and said.

"It's tasteless to eat, and it's a pity to abandon it." Xinjie said with approval.

Xueyu Longhun said with a smile, "Xinjie's summary is very incisive. Anyway, none of the people I know have learned this skill. After all, it's better to waste time learning such a defensive skill than to spend more time learning the proud skills of their profession."

She was looking at Xinjie and added, "It's another skill shield, which is the swordsman's proud skill. I suggest you consider it."

"Holy Shield?" When Xinjie heard that the Holy Shield was a swordsman's skill, he naturally became interested.

"That's right, Holy Shield." Xueyu Longhun saw that Xinjie was interested and reached out to gently close the hair. This action made her look a little more like a lady.

"Another skill that can defend against magic is the swordsman's proud skill, because this skill is created by a swordsman, and only the profession of swordsman can exert the greatest power of this skill."

"Miss Dragon Soul in the Snowfield is very knowledgeable, which is really admirable." Blake Gill heard the words of the Snow Dragon Soul and said in admiration.

"I just came here earlier than you, and it's not a big deal." The snow dragon soul said modestly.

"Can the shield defend against magic?" Xinjie is more interested in this issue.

"Can't knights learn?" Gene is also more concerned about this topic.

"I don't know about this, but Xinjie, you can ask the chief swordsman. Mr. Disol is one of the best swordsmen in the Kingdom of France, and he must be very clear about these things. I also heard that the Holy Shield skill can block both physical attacks and magic attacks, but the specific situation still needs to be asked by Mr. Disol.

After listening to their words, Xinjie found that although he has been trying to adapt to the world and understand it these days. However, in the face of this completely strange world, his understanding is still too little, and there are too many things for him to discover and learn.

"Prepare to fight!"

Although he was talking, Xinjie still paid attention to the enemy around him. When he felt that the situation was wrong, he immediately sounded the alarm.

"What the hell is this?"

After seeing the enemy appearing in front of them, Gene couldn't help opening his eyes.

Four monsters, three of which are all green, a ball of strange-shaped things, but very similar to jelly pudding, squirming on the ground, but slightly larger. Gene doesn't know how to describe them in words. His whole body is covered with green. There are only two small black dots at the top of his body. Could it be his eyes?

And what he cares more about is another monster. If he only looks at it, it is somewhat similar to a living person, but... Gene really doesn't want to associate this monster with a living person.

**The large number of bones on the surface of the body, the incomplete limbs, coupled with the slow action and the rotten smell all over the body, are really disgusting, and even the snow dragon soul can't help reaching out to cover its nose.

Xinjie snapped into the picture book in his hand, "Zombie, undead zombie family, Slime, special department Slime."

"Xinjie is really well prepared. He deserves to be the captain." The careful snow dragon soul noticed Xinjie's movements. After living in this world for a whole year, she naturally knew that it was the monster's guidebook.

Gene has known it for a long time. Xinjie told him about it after he came back from the mourning hall last time.

Only Black Gill asked puzzledly, "Has the captain seen this kind of monster before?"

Xinjie shook his head, "This is also the first time I've seen Blake Gill, attack Slime with all your magic. Give us the zombies, be careful not to be touched by them."

Seeing Slime's strange body wrapped in green, Blake Gill nodded, thinking that only looking at the appearance of this monster should be a ground attribute, and it was just right to attack with wind blade magic.

After the simple division of labor, Xinjie and Gene rushed up together as last time. Because the targets were zombies, Xinjie's sword had just hit the zombies, and Gene's gun arrived almost at the same time, piercing the zombies fiercely.

Although the surface of the zombie's body is ugly, it is very strong. The sword and gun actually wiped sparks on the surface of its body, making an unpleasant creaking sound, and it also made a low and hoarse roar. The two people in close contact with the zombies could smell the rotten smell from the zombies. Xinjie pulled out the sword with no expression on his face, while Gene frowned...

Under the joint attack of the two, the zombie still did not fall down, but also fought patiently. In turn, he attacked Gene and bit him directly on his calf.

"Damn!"

Gene snorted, and it was really painful for the zombie to bite down. Although he was wearing heavy armor, the zombie seemed to have steel teeth, which penetrated his heavy armor.

"Go to hell, scum!"

Strike back!

Gene used another proud skill of the knight - counterattack. Unwaiting the zombie to withdraw, his backhand was a shot. The zombie, which had been hit by the sword and gun, was actually seriously injured. At this moment, he was hit by Gene's skill again, struggled twice, and finally fell down unwillingly.

At the same time, the other three Slimes also died under the powerful magic of Blake Gill and the attack of several pets. These Slimes have low defenses, thin skins and intolerant, which is in sharp contrast to the zombies just now.

"What kind of monster is this, so hard..." Gene moved his legs and feet, and the place where he was bitten by the zombie just now was still faintly painful.

"These zombies... they used to be living people like us..." As soon as the snowy dragon soul raised the magic wand, a treatment made Gene full of vitality in an instant, and the pain disappeared without a trace.

"Dragon Soul, thank you very much... What did you just say? Did this monster become a living person?

Gene opened his eyes wide and looked incredible.

The dragon soul in the snowy area said glanguly, "About half a year ago, this kind of monster began to appear near the city of France, and the kingdom also ordered an investigation into this matter. But soon after the king ordered the investigation, a village in the east was attacked by this monster, and what's more shocking is that all the people in that village became this monster overnight. Their kind attacked human beings with them! It's just that I didn't think why they would appear here now?"

In the end, the snowy dragon soul was confused and had made up his mind that he must report this matter to the bishop when he returned to the cathedral.

The words of the dragon soul in the snowy area were so shocking that everyone didn't react for a long time and didn't say anything for a long time.

"Resident Evil?" Gene suddenly thought of something and suddenly said, "Hey! I was also bitten. What can I do? I don't want to be that kind of thing!"

It should have been a very serious thing, but I don't know why it came from Gene's mouth. Everyone couldn't help laughing. Even the newjie, who has always been called facial paralysis by Gene, rarely smiled. However, everyone looked at Xinjie, but no one noticed.

"Do you still have a conscience? Don't ignore me, hey!" Gene jumped with urgency.

It's really anxious to see Gene. The snowy dragon soul comforted, "Don't worry, the holy art happens to be their nemesis. You'll be fine."

"Wow, I'm worried for nothing. You should have said it earlier!" Hearing that he was fine, Gene's old problem of complaining happened again.

"You didn't ask." Xinjie suddenly plugged in.

If being complained is a very depressing thing, then what is more depressing than being complained about is that others are complained by others instead of being complained about. If there is something more depressing than being complained about by others instead of being complained about by others, that person is still a natural fool.

"I'd better die." Gene said in a voice that only he could hear.

"There is someone in front." Xinjie naturally ignored him and pointed to the front.

"What, is it a zombie again?" Gene immediately became nervous, and Black Gill also grabbed the wand in his hand. If the number of zombies had increased a few just now, it would not be fun to be bitten by them. His defense was a joke in front of such monsters.

If he had known that he should have brought a scorpion to protect him... He couldn't help looking at his mantis and shaking his head. Now it's useless to think about this. Let's get ready to fight.

The Snow Dragon Soul looked at the front carefully and said, "Wait, it doesn't seem to be a demon clan."

"Isn't it a demon?" Gene and Blake Gill put down their weapons, but remained vigilant.

"It's a living person." Xinjie's eyesight was very good, and he nodded, indicating that the snow dragon soul was not wrong.

"Why do living people come here? Is it also here to investigate? Gene Chidao.

Black Gill agreed, "I'm afraid so. You know, this is under the heater. Who will come here if it's okay?"

Xinjie said calmly, "Let's go and have a look first."

Everyone had no objection, so they raised their vigilance and walked forward.

When I got close, I saw a man holding a candlestick with his fore hand, as if he was looking for something. Because this man turned his back to them and couldn't see his appearance, he could only see that he was of medium height. He should be a man wearing a thick turtleneck coat.

Several people looked at each other and nodded, so Xinjie stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder.

"Ah!"

The man reacted unexpectedly and almost jumped up. The candlestick in his hand was also thrown aside, but the wax oil dripped into his hand, which made him scream.

"Sorry, I scared you." Xueyu Dragon Soul saw that Xinjie didn't intend to speak after shooting him, so he had to step forward and say to him.

Seeing a beautiful girl talking to himself gently, he finally calmed down, looked at several people carefully, and then patted his chest. "It turned out to be a living person. It really scared me to death."

"People are scary, scary to death." Xinjie agreed with his statement.

Everyone except him was speechless. Just now, it was clear that you were going to scare others, but they actually said such words as if it was completely none of your business.

"Yes, it seems that you are also a sensible person."

That man's words made everyone speechless again. At this time, it was really... nothing to say.

"Bright, since you are alive, should you also be entrusted to investigate? Actually, me too. But it's really nerve-racking! I didn't expect that there was a maze under the hotel... Forget it, let's not talk about this, let's introduce myself. I'm Apollo, a private detective in France. Hello."
