CREAK... CREAK—
It sounded as if rusted joints were grinding and colliding.
The noise was exceedingly clear in the deserted Corpse Square.
All five members of the squad noticed it, their bodies involuntarily stiffening.
They watched as a bizarre Crowman statue—humanoid, with arms so long they reached past its knees, and hands resembling bird claws—slowly came to life on the five stone pillars.
Originally facing the central pillar in a posture of worship, it gradually lowered its body, its head twisting with a GRIND! GRIND! sound.
Its eyes were wide open, the tiny scarlet pupils within spinning rapidly as they fixed upon the five-person squad.
From every pore on the bizarre Crowman's body, great torrents of black Death Qi erupted, spreading an evil, decaying, and frigid aura.
It flowed down the pitch-black stone pillars like a tide, instantly engulfing all five of them.
