Chapter 538: Diffusion
Trust has become a rare luxury, and Loria is glad that she still has many people she can trust, and at the moment she is wandering around a small tent with a frown. {We don't write novels, we're just online text porters-~Sui~Dream~Small~Say~ัww~mะตng~lฤ.}
Now it was difficult to sneak somewhere unnoticed, the abbey was originally a military camp, except for her and her friends, almost all of them were registered soldiers, and under Reynolds' orders, they were disorganized and redistributed, and people from different factions were mixed together, including priests loyal to Whiteman.
Soldiers who watched each other were ordered to stay at the station, while those belonging to Renault and Whitemane formed pickets to patrol the area, arresting anyone who left the station without permission or looked suspicious.
Loria certainly fell into the suspicious category, and this time she was not given any privileges, and given the five watchers surrounding her house, she was effectively under house arrest...... However, how could the five of them look at her, even during the day, she could use the fog to lightly avoid the eyes of the monitors.
Evading the pickets is no less difficult, and even if she is spotted by the hounds, she can use her speed to escape before she is discovered.
The real difficulty was that she wanted to meet her companions.
Kana was dizzy from being surrounded by Loria, and the tent belonged to her and three other priestesses, one of whom was Whitemayne's men, who were patrolling outside, and the other two were taken by Kana to the place where the sick were housed...... It's not a big deal, it will take a day or two to recover, and this may be the only chance she will be able to meet Loria.
This meeting was not easy to come by, and the greatest credit went to Ahri, who had omitted the fear of their own kind...... The big fox spent days scurrying about, sometimes chasing butterflies, sometimes stealing food from the kitchen, sometimes rushing into the camp for no apparent reason and barking at the first person he saw, and occasionally handing out a few dead critters and insects to the people at random, like a brainless beast that had lost its master's discipline - when the vigilance of the people dropped against it, it took the opportunity to pass Loria's note to Kana.
Kana, who worked as a military physician, took the people around her away. Before the two pastors recovered or the new recruits were transferred, they had half a day's worth of precious time.
Sharia gently lifted the curtain and walked in, she winked at the dagger that Kana was pointing at her, "Doctor." My arm hurts. โ
No one knew how she had managed to get into the pickets, and as one of the few who could move freely in the monastery, she found an opportunity to sneak here after receiving a message from the big fox.
"Miss, do you have any orders?" said Sharia, who saw Loria. She covered the small wound on her arm and bent down slightly, and said in a low voice, "There is no way for others to come." โ
"Hmm. Loria nodded, she had never expected to be able to gather everyone she could trust under such strict guards, "Let's talk about the recent situation. โ
"More than a dozen more people have been arrested today. Sharia handed her stabbed arm to Kana, who pretended to medicate her, "There's a child...... Our people...... Committing suicide while the guards weren't looking, he didn't know anything, and he couldn't stand the torture anymore. โ
Kana gritted her teeth and looked at Loria with angry eyes.
Loria shook her head, she understood what Kana meant...... They weren't strong enough. Unless Alice is used...... Win or lose, but what's the point?
She knows the undead...... Sylvanas was always watching here, and the Crusaders couldn't kill each other.
Kana bowed her head in disappointment and continued to rub the harmless potion onto Sharia's wounds.
"They have expanded the scope of the search, and now the ordinary people in the back mountains have also suffered from the seedlings, and if they can't find Aaron Mograini for a day, the terror hanging over everyone's heads will not leave. โ
Sharia continued, with obvious disdain in her tone at the mention of Aaron...... For that impulsive fool who caused trouble for everyone, she didn't even have a semblance of respect.
"It's useless to find it. Loria circled around the tent again, "before everyone shuddered to their knees and praised their greatness before they heard the names of Renault and Whitemayne." This horror will never go away. โ
She no longer calls Renault her uncle.
She had foreseen what would happen next, and Aaron had made them aware of the possibility of their sins being liquidated and their power seized, and they would only continue to do evil without any scruples...... The tall statue of the Commander will be erected, and all those who dare to speak out will be lost forever...... Until fear is engraved in the marrow of all people. Until the minds of all die, until the souls of all give in.
"I can only pray that they will not stir up the evil side of humanity in order to divert their attention. Loria muttered, "What about before? Everyone knew that Aaron was going to riot, why did I get the news at the last minute?"
The importance of intelligence goes without saying, if Aaron's intentions were known from the beginning, Loria would have been able to stop him...... and even turned to help him.
"This ......," Kana hesitated. Finally, he didn't point out that Loria was sleepwalking during that time, "It was our mistake...... We're entangled in something else. โ
"What's the matter?"
"Plague...... The disease spread. โ
"Undead plague?"
"No...... Our disease. โ
According to the knowledge passed down by the vampires of Skyrim, the chance of humans being infected by vampires is so small that it is almost impossible, which is why Loria's infection is very special...... Maybe it's Skyrim's perennial contact with vampires that produces antibodies, or maybe Skyrim's human constitution is special...... In short, the seemingly impossible in Skyrim is beginning to happen in Azeroth.
"We found our fellow students who were new students...... They were all bitten by one of us. Kana lowered her head and recounted what had happened, "The infected people all got sick after being bitten once, while the others ...... No matter what, we will not be infected, and we have tried to find other patterns and cures, but have not succeeded...... I've considered the terrible consequences of all human being infected, but in the current situation, there's nothing to worry about...... Some people seem to be born with resistance to the diseases in us, and the new companions ...... There are only a handful of people who are as contagious as we are. โ
After Kana had broken off her findings, Loria didn't know what to say, and she fell into a long silence.
The disease called vampire fever was caused by her, and in this situation, she could not even control it and organize its spread.
The curtain of the tent was slammed open, and the patrolling priestess returned, staring suspiciously at Kana, who was bandaging Sharia, and searching for other places.
Except for a faint pale pink soot, nothing else. (To be continued.) )
