Chapter 52 Logging Site (Part 2)

"What is the use of this magic plant?" Field learned the previous lesson and did not touch it casually. Instead, he stretched his neck with curiosity on his face, "Ashina, do you know?"

Asuna quickly put the magic plant into the jar: "You can't smell it, and you can't look at it blindly. What if you get poisoned?"

"You're being too careful." Field was embarrassed. The last evil act left a big shadow on the little girl.

"I don't know the specific effects. It would be great if there was a pharmacist. I can take it home and keep it for now."

After saying that, Asheina put the jar on the trolley.

The slaves consciously stepped forward and cut up the crocodile's body.

"Help!"

In the haze, a hysterical female voice came out, like the desperate cry of someone struggling in the fire before death. Asuna's wolf ears dangled twice, then she turned her head to look in the direction of the lumberyard, her nose twitching slightly: "I also heard someone calling for help, and it was in the direction of the lumberyard, but there was no breath of living people."

"Definitely, this is the Northern Province, and the possibility of it being human is extremely slim. Everyone, please be careful." Field remained unmoved, but instead drew out his sword, with a vigilant look on his face, "How can you shout for help for so long and still be so angry? Absolutely, either the situation is not dangerous at all, or it is the cry of a monster. "

"I'll be careful!"

Asuna clutched her spear tightly and quickly rushed into the gray mist. She ran towards the lumberyard for ten seconds before a crowd of corpses appeared in her field of vision. They clustered together, twitching from time to time and walking aimlessly. The lumberyard is crowded inside.

"Squeak~"

The thick walls of the lumberyard made an overwhelming sound of bending. The rotting corpses were very sensitive to sound. The cries for help in the house kept them gathering.

"Help!"

The strange cry for help became louder, suddenly coming from the lumberyard.

"The source of the sound is inside the house. Mr. Field is right, there will be no living people in the pile of corpses." Asheina drove the giant wolf to jump up and down, glanced around, raised the corners of her mouth, showing an expression of surprise, "There is still a lot of wood, and the houses in the territory have been settled."

There are hills of wood piled up in several open spaces around the lumberyard. Most of the wood is intact, while some are rotten, or growing mushrooms and moss. However, compared to the trees that have turned into monsters, the wood here is definitely An extremely valuable resource.

This lumberyard in the large manor not only supplies the manor, but also Starry Night City, and its output is extremely high.

Because there is a river here, you can just throw the felled wood into the water and float it down the river, and then salvage it for use. This can save a lot of manpower and material resources and reduce transportation costs.

"Shua~"

A long and slender tail with spikes suddenly shot out from Asuna's side, carrying a sharp edge and stabbing at her without hesitation. An ordinary person, even a fighting spirit knight, might be killed by a sudden attack.

Asuna, however, was always vigilant. She frowned slightly. She just tilted her head lightly and brushed her hair with her tail thorn. The enemy's attack failed. Asuna thrust the spear in her hand in the direction of the attack, hit the attacker's throat with one shot, and then twisted the spear.

The rotating spear twisted out several thick blood arrows. The attacker was a first-order carrion. Its eyes were round and its neck was almost completely severed. It didn't even scream and fell to the ground.

Asuna acted as if nothing had happened and murmured: "You can't set fire here. If you burn all the wood, Mr. Field will be angry. But there are so many rotting corpses here that it's hard to count. If we don't use mass injury methods, If so, it will take at least one day to kill.”

"Yes, let's do it like this." Ashina thought of a good idea.

"Aww~wow~wow."

The dragon-born wolf roared wildly.

Roughly translated: I want to fight 10,000! ψ(｀∇´)ψ

With this sound, it was like a dinner bell, and all the rotting corpses in the lumberyard were activated, turning their heads in twisted and weird postures to look over.

"roar!"

The rotten corpses came in like a black tide, and the faces of the people lying on the ground were filled with the desire to kill.

"Kill them! Black Wolf."

Asuna patted the head of the dragon wolf. The limbs of the dragon wolf suddenly flashed with blue light, and its body pressed down slightly. Immediately, mixed with the sound of violent wind, it crushed the group of corpses with overwhelming force, like a ruthless high-speed train.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

A whole straight line of rotten corpses collided into a bloody mist, and anyone who was bumped into them would end up with their flesh and blood flying everywhere.

Without stopping, the dragon wolf charged up again and crashed out. Asheina performed a beautiful trick and made a face at the zombie wave. The fearless corpses roared and pursued wildly with messy steps. Asuna led the corpse tide and slowly left in the other direction.

Relying on the terrifying mobility of the dragon wolf, Ashina led the corpse group to a distant open space, then invited them to eat dragon flames, burned them to ashes, and then patiently attracted the next batch of rotting corpses.

After the slaves peeled off the crocodile skin and claws, Asuna had finished the battle.

"Sir, the carrion in the lumberyard has been taken care of, and the lumberyard is well preserved, so there is probably something to be gained."

Field pumped his fist excitedly: "Well done! Sorry for bothering you."

"Wait, I need you to do a favor." Seeing Field raising his legs and about to set off, Asheina's cheeks were slightly tipsy, she pointed at her head, puffed up her cheeks and said, "Fighting for too long, my head is dizzy. It’ll be better if you touch your head.”

The little girl was simply used to being bullied by Field. Every time after killing an enemy, Field would pat her head to show encouragement, which formed a conditioned reflex for her.

Field couldn't stand this, so he quickly put his hand on Ashina's head and rubbed it.

"Okay, don't faint, don't faint."

Ashina: (◍＞ᗜ˂◍)✩ Very happy!

After clearing the obstacles on the road, everyone came to the logging site.

Looking around, Field saw three buildings in the logging site, which were a wood processing plant, a wood storage warehouse, and a house where the loggers lived.

"Help!"

There was no time to count the supplies, and the strange cry for help came from the house again.

Everyone was startled.

Following the sound, the door of the house was open, and there was nothing in sight except collapsed furniture and some broken limbs. The house was gloomy, with only a faint wind blowing.

"Goddess! This must be the work of evil spirits!"

The guards who were about to step forward looked at each other, stopped in their tracks, and hesitated to pick up their spears. Daring to fight the corpses didn't mean they wouldn't be afraid. The slaves were so scared that they pissed themselves. If Field hadn't been here, they would have definitely run away.
