Upon seeing the two n shouting in front of the doors, the guards hurriedly ran down the stairs and let them through.
Before the doors could even swing fully open, the two guards forced their way in. They collapsed to the ground but kept scrabbling on.
"What the hell..."
The two pale-faced guards who had just escaped the graveyard interrupted their questioners, panting and shouting:
"Close, close the doors! Quickly!"
This strange behavior sent a chill down the spine of the other guards. Working together, they pushed the doors shut and barred them.
"What happened? What about the others?"
As they heard this question, a haunted look appeared on the guards’ frightened faces:
"They, they were eaten by the undead!"
Upon realizing that eight of their fellows had lost their lives, the guards imdiately turned to their captain. He imdiately ordered:
"...Oi, one of you go upstairs and take a look!"
A guard hurriedly climbed the stairs, but halfway up, he froze in place.
"What, what happened?"
The trembling guard shouted:
"The undead! The undead are everywhere!"
If one listened carefully, they would be able to make out a sound which sounded like ten thousand horses galloping, coming from the other side of the wall. Everyone, not just the guard from just now, were struck dumb by the scene before them.
A massive quantity of undead so great as to render all who saw it speechless - approached the doors of the graveyard.
"Why, in such numbers..."
"Looks like it’s more than one or two hundred... there should be a thousand of them... or more..."
The magical lights illuminated countless undead, like shadows writhing in the dark, and it was difficult to get an exact count.
Wreathed in the scent of rot, the shambling mass of undead pressed in toward the doors like gathering clouds. It was not just Zombies and Skeletons down there; there were also a few rarer and more powerful undead Ghouls, Ghasts, Wights, Swell Skins, Corrupt Dead, and more.
The guards could not help their shivering.
Because the graveyard was surrounded by a wall, the undead could not attack the common folk as long as the wall held out. However, even if they mobilized all their guards, it was doubtful whether they could fend off such a massive horde of the undead. The guards were essentially normal citizens, and they had no confidence in wiping out these undead.
In addition, so undead could turn their slain victims into others of their own kind. If things went poorly, the guards might end up becoming undead themselves and attacking their fellows. And while they had not seen any flying undead yet, the guards had a bad feeling that if they did not wipe them all out, a flying undead creature would end up spawning sooner or later.
-The undead tide washed up against the side of the wall.
Doom. Doom.
The swarming, mindless undead had no sense of pain, and banged wildly against the doors. It was as if they knew that they could attack the living if they broke the doors down.
Doom. Doom.
The sounds of repeated pounding and the constant moans of the dead ca from the other side of the door.
They did not need siege rams. The undead - who did not care if their bodies were destroyed by their non-stop battering were siege weapons in their own right.
Cold sweat broke out on the backs of the guards who saw this.
"Ring the bell! Ask for help from the barracks! You two, go inform the other doors about this!"
The captain, who had recovered his senses by now, continued giving orders:
"The ones behind, take your spears and stab the undead getting close to the doors!"
The guards rembered their duty as they heard the orders, and they started thrusting savagely at the undead below them. The undead covered the land like a flood, so any stroke of theirs found a ho in undead flesh.
They thrust, withdrew, and thrust again.
Tainted blood spilled over the ground, while the guards’ noses were soon inured to the stench of decay. They repeated the sa motions over and over again like workers.
They killed several undead, which fell to the ground and were trampled to paste by the ones behind them.
Because the undead had little intelligence, they did not strike against the guards stabbing at them with their spears.
Repeating the sa simple actions eroded the guards’ sense of danger.
And then, as though aiming for that mont
"Uwaaaaaaaah!"
A scream pierced the air. As the other guards turned to look, they saw sothing long and wriggly curled around another guard’s neck.
It was a slimy, pink object–an intestine.
The creature that had shot forth this length of intestine was an egg-shaped undead creature, with a huge cavity on the front of its body. Within that cavity were several people’s worth of internal organs, churning and wriggling like parasites.
This undead creature was called an Organ Egg.
The writhing intestine pulled at the guard’s body.
"Hyaaaaaaa!"
Before his friends could save him, the guard wailed and fell
"Save, save ! Soone save ! Agyaaaah!"
-His screams filled the air. Every guard saw the terrible fate of their colleague, eaten alive by the throng of undead.
The armor which protected his body and his attempts to protect his face only prolonged his suffering. His fingers, his calves, his face, all of them were picked clean.
"Fall back! Get down from the wall!"
After seeing the Organ Egg’s innards twitching, the guard captain ordered a retreat.
All the guards hurriedly ran down the stairs, and they could hear the sounds of the undead banging at the doors getting Louder. The doors themselves began groaning under the strain.
The sense of doom grew stronger. The chances of them holding out until help arrived, or that no other strong undead would show up were very low.
Once the doors opened, the tide of death would flood in, and only the gods knew how many lives would be lost.
Just as the guards were fully consud by despair, there was a clattering sound.
Everyone reflexively looked to the source of the sound.
Before their eyes was a beautiful woman and handso man who seed completely matched to the pair.
The won seems to carry a light sword, probably a katana.
"O-Oi! This place is very dangerous! Get out of-"
Halfway through the guard’s words, he realized that there was a tal plate dangling from the man’s neck.
An adventurer!
However, that ember of hope was snuffed out when he saw that it was a copper plate. Adventurers of the lowest class could not possibly deliver them from this dilemma.
A look of disappointnt appeared in the eyes of all the guards present.
"Didn’t you hear ? Get out of here now!"
"Solution, my sword." The man asked the won.
