These Familiars Are Strange-Chapter 110: Make or break
After walking for a bit, we encountered our first monster.
These monsters were just walking around in a daze, as if they didn’t have any thoughts at all.
That was because they didn’t.
These were a bunch of zombies that were walking around aimlessly. It seemed like they were searching for something and they weren’t at the same time.
It didn’t seem like it would be hard to take care of these zombies, so Wang Rong wanted to step up and show his worth.
But I just raised a hand to stop him before saying, "Wait, let me try something."

Wang Rong raised a brow to look at me to show his doubt, but he stepped back in the end to let me do what I wanted.
I just calmly summoned out the Echo Bat.
When it appeared, it landed on my shoulder and looked in front to see what was around us. But it suddenly stopped when it saw Iris holding onto my arm from the side.
The Echo Bat narrowed its eyes to look at her, almost as if it seemed displeased that it was holding onto me like this.
With a bitter smile, I said, "Just leave her be for now. Take care of them like you usually do."
The Echo Bat slowly gave a nod before looking back at the zombies in front of us and opening its mouth. Though no sound came out, I knew exactly what it was doing and waited for the result.
In the end, the zombies suddenly stopped moving.
They just stood there as if they were dazed and then slowly turned to walk in our direction.
When Wang Rong saw this, he looked like he was getting ready to charge them.
But he stopped when I raised my hand to stop him.
Wang Rong looked at me with a worried look like he thought that I wasn’t thinking clearly, but I still didn’t let him charge at the zombies.
The zombies just slowly made their way over until they were right in front of us.
Wang Rong still took a step forward as if he was ready to sacrifice himself to stop these zombies if needed, but it wasn’t necessary in the end.
That was because the zombies suddenly fell to one knee and bowed their heads to me.
It was as if they were taking me as their leader with the way that they bowed to me.
Wang Rong had a shocked look on his face as he slowly turned to look at me and asked, "Boss, this is…"
"What do you think this is?" I said back to him in a calm voice.
Though I had a calm voice, I actually let out a secret sigh of relief since this was something that I had been worried about.
Even if the Echo Bat’s Hypnosis was able to control the normal monsters, there was no telling if it would be able to control the undead. After all, the undead were undead creatures, so there was no thought in their minds in the first place.
To control them was like trying to control nothing at all since there was nothing there in their minds to take control of.
I had been worried that if the Echo Bat’s Hypnosis didn’t work, then that would mean that my greatest weapon would be useless.
When the time came, I wouldn’t be able to rely on just the items that I had obtained alone to take care of the monsters of this dungeon.
Especially a Boss Monster.
So the fact that I was able to control the undead was a good sign.
It was the make or break thing that would determine if we could clear this dungeon.
After confirming this, the only thing that was left was to see what they could do.
These zombies were considered E Rank Monsters, so they should be at the same level as the Fanged Wolves.
Only it was hard to see how they could compare unless I saw them in action. Find your next adventure on novelbuddy
With a wave of my hand, I said, "Let’s go."
The zombies followed behind me without a single word while it took Wang Rong and Iris some time to come back to their senses. But eventually they followed after me just like the zombies.
Only Iris didn’t seem to be staying as close to me as before.
It seemed that she was keeping her distance to a certain extent since she didn’t want to get too close to the zombies.
After a while, we ran into a group of skeletons walking around.
This was another one of the E Rank Monsters that wandered around in this dungeon.
The moment that we saw this group of skeletons, I said to the zombies, "Go."
As soon as they received this order, there was no hesitation that came from them as they charged at the skeletons.
Well, it wasn’t exactly right to say that they charged at the skeletons as it was more of a slow job at the skeletons. That was just the lack of speed that these zombies had.
Since there was this difference in speed, the skeletons were able to notice these zombies approaching them. Though they noticed, it didn’t seem like they were planning on doing anything.
After all, they were all undead in the same dungeon, so it wasn’t as if they had any reason to suspect that the zombies would do anything to them.
But that was when they were suddenly blindsided by the zombies that attacked them.
They suddenly swung their arms out at the skeletons when they got close and knocked two of them apart.
The rest of the skeletons immediately moved away from the zombies, using their speed to create that gap before pulling out their bone weapons.
While the skeletons didn’t seem to know why the zombies were attacking them, they didn’t hold back in fighting back against them.
Or they wouldn’t have if not for the fact that they suddenly stopped moving.
It wasn’t just the skeletons that stopped moving, it was also the zombies that stopped moving.
All of them fell under the Echo Bat’s control.
