Black Alice in the Murder Land
Chapters 20. Trapped in the Mud of Life

“Graaa!!”

From the front of the two, a pack of zombies appeared. Not just one or ten, but more than that.

“Zombie?!” shout Code Name: Tarzan.

“Cih!” Tenn looked to his right and left side, “We're stuck.”

“What is..” Code Name: Tarzan look around him and he understands what Tenn means.

Now they have to accept the fact that the safe situation they just felt ended up being a survival game.

Tenn himself seemed unhappy with the situation.

“I could have fought like we did just now, but considering my magic this time was a little limited made me have to rethink.”

“Even if I can kill them with aura, it can only be used one more time and it will be an ace for me.”

“According to all the information I read from the list sent by the tsundere system, all the magic I can use now can only be issued a maximum of twice and will only open again after leveling up.”

“Only being able to rely on physical attacks will render me unable to regenerate for a while like an ordinary weak human.”

“Should I run for a while?”

Tenn saw them coming and finally said to Code Name: Tarzan.

“Tarzan, we escaped from here.”

“How?!”

“Jump to the tree as before, now!”

“Graaa!!”

As the zombies began to shout and run, the two players jumped up and stood on a fairly high branch.

The entire forest area has many roots, shrubs, large trees, hanging roots and many other wild things.

Tenn's ability and Code Name: Tarzan's ability to adapt to the forest allows them to easily jump on trees.

But there is something more surprising. It's not just them who can do it.

There are five zombies that can climb. Not just climbing, they like gripping a tree branch very firmly.

Sticking hands to make it easier for them to climb trees and the quick movement made the two players quite surprised.

“Whatever zombies can be like that?!” shouted Code Name: Tarzan with a face of shock.

“You don't know, in Cinderella's palace they can even be like spider-man. Run!”

Tenn and Code Name: Tarzan jumps on another tree. Of course it wasn't easy because back then, it wasn't just five zombies chasing after.

There were some other zombies that started jumping into the other trees. Code Name: Tarzan looking back.

“Alice-kun, they can jump over the trees too! How should we?!”

“Just run away from here and find a safe place! If it fought that much, we would only end up being their brothers!”

Tenn started thinking with an annoyed expression.

“Sial! Otherwise being near this human I might choose to risk taking out my aura magic one last time.”

“I mean, the group that was chasing us. They could jump over the trees like the ability of a fool behind me.”.

“In Cinderella's palace there is even a climb on the wall. It makes sense if there are other zombies that might be able to use a sword or spout fire later.”

It was only a moment when they jumped into the trees that the branch that Tenn had stepped on broke because it was too fragile.

“Eh?! Huwaaa!”

“Alice-kun!” shout Code Name: Tarzan.

Tenn fell down as the zombies behind him ran after him. Code Name: Tarzan wants to help him by jumping and intercepting hundreds of zombies running towards them.

“Alice-kun, are you okay?”

“I'm fine. Don't shut up, come on!”

Both had to flee from the place. The number chasing is very much. There wasn't much that could be done for now until they ended up accidentally stepping on something.

“What is this? Wet?”

“My legs feel heavy..”

Tenn looked down at his feet and it was a mud surrounded by thickets. Unfortunately, it was no ordinary mud.

“This color...live mud?!”

Both of them accidentally stepped on and had time to walk in the mud.

“Sial! Why can there be something like this here.” Tenn grumbled and looked ahead. “They want to kill us.” mumbled slowly.

The area of mud turned out to be almost as large as a small lake in the forest and covered with shrubs, so perfect that it is difficult to see.

From the angle seen now, the bodies of the two began to sink bit by bit as they were recklessly moving. Mainly Code Name: Tarzan.

He was quite panicked until his body had already sunk to the thighs of his own in such a short period of time.

“I don't want to die here!” yells

“Do not move or you will sink deeper, you fool!”

Around them there are only a few roots spreading and although their distance to the ground is not far, but returning to land will also only give other problems. This is because the zombies are getting closer.

From behind, the zombies began to chase and almost got to where they were.

“Alice-kun, we will die!”

“I don't want to be like that!” Tenn bit his thumb and thought hard, “I have to take a risk and accept the fact that the strongest magic I have to use right now. But..”

Tenn's face looked so insincere, but to get out of the living mud that engulfed his body required a plan.

And they wouldn't be able to do it the usual way now.

“Drowning or dying from being bitten by a zombie was never on the wish list in my life during reincarnation. I had to do it!”

“From dead here!”
