Chapter 8
Dax's hands were trembling, his nose was bleeding, but he still fired the arrow in his hand.
The arrow pierced through the net and hit the crows. Dax smiled happily. So what if they're Negri's followers? So what if they're infected? So what? Didn't I still manage to trick them?
From the moment his companions died to the plague, he had faintly noticed the crows following them, so he slowly came up with this plan. It didn't matter if they died, as long as he killed these monsters and ensured that they wouldn't spread the plague back to the village, that was enough.
One of his companions' eyes suddenly burst open, a burst of power pierced through the gap, causing black blood to splatter everywhere. He fell to the ground with a crazed smile on his face as he died.
Wang Yuan didn't stop there, he ordered the crows that were about to die to stop the ones that weren't yet injured, while he charged towards another person and used his interference force to kill him.
"Comoros, kill those crows" Black blood flowed out of Dax's mouth, he could no longer draw his bow and fell to the ground, his life was about to come to an end.
Comoros held his bow with trembling hands. Before, he was still able to shoot when he was with the others, but now that everyone else was either dead or on the verge of death, he didn't dare to attack anymore, after all, that was Negri's messenger.
"Don't be afraid, Comoros!!" Dax used the last of his strength to shout, giving Comoros courage, he nocked an arrow and pulled the bowstring.
Wang Yuan didn't even have time to regret leaving Comoros uninfected, his mind was frantically trying to think of a way out of this situation.
There were only 6 crows left, 3 of them were heavily wounded, it was questionable whether or not they could even survive, and the most important problem was that if Comoros wasn't dealt with, these crows would all die!
"The white mist around his body is still very thick, it'll take me a few minutes to neutralize it and kill him, and those few minutes are more than enough for him to kill the rest of the crows" Wang Yuan rushed towards Comoros, the white mist around his body made it impossible for Wang Yuan to even talk to him.
"There has to be a way" Wang Yuan forced himself to calm down. Looking at the blood left behind by the crows, he thought of a possible solution. "But my interference power is not enough."
Wang Yuan turned to look at the dying Dax and didn't think too much about it. He killed Dax without hesitation and absorbed all the white mist and cool aura it gave off.
Dax's emotions weren't the same as the other dead, he was filled with madness, determination, and satisfaction. His emotions and memories were troubling Wang Yuan, but he sensed a crow's consciousness disappearing once again.
Wang Yuan's interference force surged out and wrapped up some crow blood on the ground. He used all his interference force and splashed it on Comoros's face.
Comoros was stunned when he was splashed with the stinky blood. Then, he screamed in horror, and the arrow in his hand missed its target.
Even though the medical knowledge of this place wasn't very advanced, and could even be described as primitive, they understood very well that the plague was contagious, especially the blood of the infected, as soon as they came into contact with it, they would be targeted by Negary.
"Were you the one who killed my messengers!?" Suddenly, a strange and familiar voice resounded, causing Comoros to be even more shocked and hurriedly tried to find the source of the voice.
But as soon as he found the source of the voice, he was so scared that his legs gave way and collapsed to the ground: "The dead … the dead have been resurrected"
The one who spoke was the already dead Dax. He was lying on the ground, his eyes were dim and lifeless, but his mouth was constantly opening and closing, like a fish struggling to breathe on land.
The other party's voice was extremely strange, the pronunciation wasn't perfect, so if one didn't listen carefully, they wouldn't be able to tell what he was saying.
"Were you the one who killed my messengers? Human!! " This time, the words were a lot more accurate, even though there were still a lot of problems, at least Comoros understood what the other party was saying.
"You, you, you are Negri!!" Comoros screamed in fear.
"You killed so many of my messengers, I curse you, you will die a painful death from the disease, your skin will rot, your blood will turn black, your bones will rot"
"No! No, I didn't do it on purpose, it was Dax who forced me to do it, please let me go, venerable great Negri, please let me go, retract your curse, please give me a chance to redeem myself "Comoros knelt down and begged for mercy, shouting in fear.
"Is that so?" The dead Dax spoke in a strange tone: 「 It's not impossible for you to atone for your sins 」
"Please … please speak, great Negri" Comoros was trembling, his voice was filled with too many emotions, joy, fear, hatred, regret, shame.
"Hahaha!" Dax's corpse laughed like sand: "You killed my messengers, so of course you will help me raise more messengers"
The two remaining crows in the net finally managed to break free, as for the injured crows, they had already died. Dax's group had smeared some kind of poisonous plant sap on their arrows, at this point, only two of Wang Yuan's 13 mutated crows remained.
"These two messengers of mine will follow you and help you suppress the disease on your body. You need to spread my greatness and have more people help me raise messengers, otherwise, not only you, but your entire village will be cursed by me and perish from the plague!!"
"Yes, yes, yes, great Negri, I will follow your orders" Comoros hurriedly replied.
"Human, seeing how stupid you are, it will be extremely difficult for you to accomplish anything. For the sake of your sincerity, I will grant you the right to summon me, when you run into trouble, you can ask for my help"
"Thank you, great Negri, for your kindness" Comoros thanked him profusely, then carefully asked: "Then, how do I summon great Negri?"
"What will I be using to communicate with you? When the time comes, all you need to do is offer me something!" after saying so, Dax's corpse went silent.
Comoros carefully waited for a while to confirm that the great Negri had left, but the two crows were still staring at Dax with their jet-black eyes.
Wang Yuan sighed in relief, the problem was temporarily solved. Aside from the 11 crows that died, everything else was pretty much the same as he had planned.
There were many reasons why this problem occurred, but the most important one was that he was too weak. And this weakness wasn't limited to just his strength, but also other aspects.
At first, he was only a normal person, a weakling. Even after becoming a remnant soul, his personality had changed, and he obtained supernatural power, he was still a weakling. His personality had many flaws, such as being easily complacent and careless, if he didn't change that, this problem would have occurred again.
