"Stop right there!" A hoarse shout suddenly came from the side.
Dizzy, I was so lost in thought that I didn't even notice someone approaching. What a fail.
Anwina and I stopped in our tracks and looked towards the source of the noise, then simultaneously exclaimed in our minds, "How ugly!"
What appeared before us was a tall Skeleton Soldier clad in tattered chain armor, followed by a Little Zombie with a blank expression and pus-filled sores all over. From both a physics and biology standpoint, I figured the Zombie was the one who had just made the noise.
Though I pride myself on having nerves of steel, even akin to being unperturbed in the face of Mount Tai's collapse, seeing a Skeleton and a Zombie standing in front of me for the first time... Honestly, it was quite the jittery experience.
