Chapter 419: The Dark Shadow of the Town (Part II)

The town of Fiennes has become a dead city, with hundreds of corpses scattered all over the town, and even though the temperature is relatively low in late winter, the corpses that have been parked for many days still make Fiennes a place for everyone to avoid.

Squadron Leader Kubrick, who was in charge of investigating the incident, after confirming that there were no living people in the town, brought in more than a dozen truckloads of black oil, sprinkled the whole town, and then set fire to the dead town.

Although the scene was burned, Squadron Leader Kubrick still found some clues in the formation.

There are two doubts.

First, some of the houses in the town still showed signs of recent habitation, but no signs of death or fighting were found in the houses, and he sent someone to look through the documents of the town office and register the names of the owners of these houses.

Second, some of the deceased were not killed by sharp weapons and disemboweled, but died under the source energy technique, or were incinerated or stoned to death, and some even died of suffocation on the street, which are typical injuries caused by the source energy technique in the hospital.

Upon discovering the suspicions, Kubrick immediately sent people in the surrounding towns to search for those who had disappeared from his house.

Soon the search yielded results, and the missing people were found in several nearby towns.

Kubrick immediately ordered these and these people to be "invited" to the city guards, and they became prisoners.

According to Kubrick's plan, they would not be cleared of their accuse until next month, if the intentional killing came next.

But beyond his expectations, there were still endless situations, some people resisted arrest and wounded people and fled, others fled long ago, and finally only a dozen people were numbly taken into the cell.

"Don't you see anything out of the ordinary?" Kubrick asked his subordinate, Squad Leader Paggis, after the initial interrogation of the arrested suspects.

Patis shook his head.

"They're all sick, there's something wrong here!" Kubrick pointed to his head.

Seeing that Peggis didn't understand, Kubrick had no choice but to say in detail: "Although they seem to be normal in what they talk and do, it seems that the way you look at them is very empty!

I looked at the woman for two minutes, but she didn't respond, and even looked at me, neither angry nor shy. ”

"I thought you had a crush on that woman!" Pagis whispered.

Kubrick slapped Pagis on the back of the head, "You idiot, what do you think!"

"Put them in the strongest cells. After admonishing his men, Kubrick hurried to the town hall to report the situation.

Later, Mayor Warren turned to the Transcendental Guild, and according to the clues provided by Squadron Leader Kubrick, several grandmasters of the guild believed that the souls of these suspects had been damaged, resulting in seemingly normal people, but lacking normal emotions, and would become hysterical under certain circumstances, and the grandmasters believed that the "Ripper Case" could be the case of these people in the case of "hysteria".

And after the tests of the grandmasters, the skin of patients suffering from "hysteria" has become particularly sensitive, and there are often minor wounds that are difficult to heal and even cause ulcers.

Although the Grandmasters' research did not reach a decisive conclusion, it still provided a lot of help to the city guards who were responsible for solving the case.

The city guards went deep into the towns and villages to check on suspicious people according to the symptoms of "hysteria", but anyone with similar symptoms was taken back to Medis's cell for temporary detention. Good Mood Literature Network

In less than a month, the city guards arrested nearly 100 people, who occupied an entire floor of the prison.

However, after a calm night, everything changed differently.

Originally, the prison guards only heard the noise in the cell early in the morning, and only went to stop drinking, but he saw a terrifying scene.

More than a dozen tall black figures in the cell were tearing at the bodies of the prisoners in the same cell, swallowing greedily......

The same scene is playing out in every cell where the "hysteria" suspect is being held.

Only then did the guards rejoice in the captain's wisdom and put the prisoners in the strongest cells possible, and also installed shackles on the transcendents among them to suppress the source energy.

After killing their fellow inmates, the black-haired monsters began to ram the doors and walls in a frenzy to escape.

Fortunately, these monsters only have brute force and do not use source energy, and before they could break out of the cell, they were suppressed by the city guards who rushed to hear the news.

On the same day, there were a number of "ripper murders" in other towns, and the number of dead people increased several times compared with the previous month, and the total number of dead people in various places has reached thousands.

Summing up all the circumstances, Mayor Medis knew that something had happened!

Soon word spread in the Medis region that there was a disease that could turn people into half-human, half-beast monsters, the way of transmission was unknown, but once infected, there was no cure.

These monsters usually look little different from ordinary people, only slightly muddy, and they are easy to become hysterical when stimulated, so they are very hidden. Until one day every month, they will suddenly transform into monsters, killing people around them, breaking open their chests and eating their internal organs.

As soon as the news spread, everyone panicked.

For a time, everyone was in danger, and families who were able to leave the town one after another, avoiding the crowd and avoiding the countryside, lest the people around them suddenly become monsters and they would be killed inexplicably.

It was at this point in time that Jacques' party entered the Medis region, just in time for the inhabitants fleeing the town.

For this half-human, half-wolf monster, Jacques and the others had seen and fought with it before. However, the monsters described by the townspeople found seemed to be much weaker than the monsters that Jacques had killed in York City, and dozens of transformed monsters were wiped out by a squad of the City Guards.

Although these monsters have brute strength, their combat power is not as good as that of the more powerful awakened ones. Of course, killing ordinary people is more than enough. And these monsters only know how to kill and eat, and they don't seem to have much intelligence.

This is different from Gabriel Elle in York City, that guy at least knows how to hide himself, knows how to escape when he encounters a strong opponent, and his combat effectiveness is stronger than that of ordinary plasticists.

In any case, the current situation in the Medis region is not good for Jacques and others.

In order to capture the monsters and search for possible infected, the city guards have scattered to set up checkpoints on the main traffic roads to prevent the infected from mixing into other areas.

Judging by the fact that they were not holding on to the city, but were attacking the scurrying populace, it seemed that the city guards of Medis had mastered the way to identify the infected.

It's just that in this way, if Jacques and their army that have infiltrated other countries meet the city guards, they will definitely cause a lot of trouble.

Although the Boar Knights have the confidence to win even in the face of several times the enemy, from the perspective of the interests of the Bright God Kingdom, this is the time to cultivate obscurity and digest the colonies they occupy. Provocative gestures should not be made to irritate the nerves of the Western Saharan Empire, let alone engage the Empire's armies in the Medias.
