Under the gaze of Li Qing and Chu Lingfeng, the girl's eyelashes lying on the bed board trembled slightly, and she slowly opened her eyes. [.starter]

As soon as she opened her eyes, at first glance she saw Li Qing and Chu Lingfeng, and the girl jumped up like a fried kitten.

She jumped to the edge of the bed, leaned her back against the corner, knelt on one knee, supported the bed with one hand, and quickly touched her waist with the other, as if she wanted to draw her sword.

The hand she was trying to draw the sword was a matter of course—Chu Lingfeng had already removed the short sword from her belt before he could heal her.

Before she could touch the sword, a clear look of panic flashed in the girl's light blue eyes. She looked at Li Qing and Chu Lingfeng nervously, maintained a vigilant posture, pursed her lips vigorously, and said in a crisp and beautiful but slightly trembling voice, "Who are you?" ”

The language she spoke, Li Qing and Chu Lingfeng had obviously not heard. However, with the blessing of "strong language literacy" blessed by Tuo Susu, the two of them understood the girl's words without the slightest barrier.

Li Qing showed a kind smile and said, "Don't be nervous, we are not bad people." Just two ordinary adventurers. ”

The language he spoke was the lingua franca of this plane.

There are many races in this plane, and when they communicate with each other, they use the lingua franca. It's like English on Earth.

Although Li Qing behaved very friendly, the girl's vigilant posture still did not relax in the slightest.

She glanced at Chu Lingfeng, then stared at Li Qing again, and said, "Ordinary adventurers? Deceitful! There are no living people in Mulan City for a long time! With the strength of the two of you, it is impossible to kill from outside the city! ”

She couldn't see through Li Qing's strength, and she could barely see that Li Qing was better than her. But Chu Lingfeng's strength, she could see it clearly at a glance. It's only slightly stronger than an ordinary civilian, and it's not even a first-level combat position.

In her opinion, Li Qing can still be regarded as a low-level adventurer. As for Chu Lingfeng...... Is there such a weak adventurer? Is it a risk or a head-off?

Besides, even if Li Qing had a little strength, it was impossible for him to rush into Mulan City with a "weak" girl who was not even a first-class soldier. Unless it's like yourself, ride a flying demonic beast, break through the blockade from the air, and descend directly into the city.

However, how could the so-called "ordinary adventurers" be able to afford to ride a large flying demonic beast?

You must know that adventurers are not a glamorous profession, just a group of bitter people who earn money for their lives. Being able to support a good war horse is already quite good. Where is there any spare money to support large flying monsters?

Therefore, for Li Qing's statement, the girl expressed extreme doubts.

"We are indeed ordinary adventurers." Li Qing stared at the girl's eyes sincerely, and opened his mouth to say nonsense: "My companion and I accidentally touched a teleportation array when we were exploring an ancient ruin. By the time we came to our senses, we were already here. ”

Chu Lingfeng also said with a serious face: "That's right. It happened so suddenly, and we were transported to the city without any preparation. As soon as he came over, he was inexplicably chased by a group of living dead, and finally escaped into this temple. Speaking of which, we still haven't figured out what's going on here. ”

Li Qing continued Chu Lingfeng's words and said, "Yes, what happened here? Why don't there be any normal people in the city, and they have all become terrible monsters? As he spoke, he looked at the girl with a pleading expression, like a schoolboy who had a question and wanted to ask the teacher for advice.

The girl looked at Li Qing, and then at Chu Lingfeng, and the look of vigilance and nervousness in her eyes gradually dissipated a little. She frowned and said, "You guys...... Was it really teleported in for no apparent reason? ”

Li Qing said categorically: "Of course! What we're saying is true. Otherwise, with the strength of the two of us, how could we enter the city? There are terrible monsters everywhere! ”

The nervousness in the girl's eyes dissipated a little. She breathed a sigh of relief and said, "You really don't know what's going on here?" ”

Li Qing and Chu Lingfeng shook their heads again and again.

The girl said curiously: "Most of the Calondo continent has been attacked by the plague, isn't there no such plague in your place?" Haven't even heard of it? ”

Chu Lingfeng explained: "We live in an isolated rural place, and people in our hometown rarely go out, and few people come to us. I remember the last time I went to our hometown, it was more than ten years ago. So we had no idea what was going on outside the road. If we hadn't accidentally teleported here while exploring the ancient ruins, we wouldn't have been able to run into those monsters. ”

After listening to Chu Lingfeng's explanation, the look of vigilance in the girl's eyes had disappeared without a trace. The tense body also relaxed.

After all, Li Qing and Chu Lingfeng really had no ill will towards her. And she is not stupid, after she came to her senses, she naturally knew why she would appear in this room, lying on this wooden bed.

She knew that when she fell from the sky, she had already been injured and passed out. If these two men had ill intentions towards her, they would not have been able to bring her into this room. Although her weapon was removed, it did not restrain her movements.

Although the leather armor was removed, the clothes were neat, and some small objects close to the body, especially a very important prop, were still left on her, and none of them were missing.

There are also injuries on my body, and I feel that I have recovered much faster than normal. Apparently the two men treated her.

And Chu Lingfeng and Li Qing's statement about how they appeared in the city is also reasonable. Although the girl has not participated in exploring the ruins, she has heard many adventure stories. In many ruins of Zhilu Dao, there are teleportation circles. Some teleportation circles still retain the function of teleportation.

Accidentally touching the teleportation array and being teleported to an unknown location is not too rare, but there are many examples.

So at this moment, the girl has completely let down her guard.

At this time, Li Qing said with a shocked face: "You just said the plague? Could it be that the plague has turned people into monsters? Half...... Calondo Continent ...... All of this kind of catastrophe happened? That is, there are such living dead everywhere? ”

A flash of gloom flashed in the girl's eyes, she lowered her head slightly, and said in a low voice: "That's right, now the entire Calondo continent is almost full of living dead. There aren't many places left where there aren't the living dead. ”

Li Qing was shocked and asked, "What kind of plague is that?" How can you turn people into that kind of monster? And who spread the plague? ”

The girl was not too troublesome, and patiently explained: "We don't know what kind of plague this is, but we only know that those who are infected with the plague will become soulless living dead." They are much like undead creatures like ghouls, but more evil and terrifying than ghouls.

"At least ghouls are not contagious, while the living dead can infect any living creature with the plague. Any living creature that is bitten by a living dead, or whose wounds or mouths are splashed with bodily fluids such as the blood of the living dead, will become infected, and in just half a day, it will become the same living dead. The plague is so contagious that even the legendary powerhouses are immune.

"As for who spread the plague, no one knows. Since the outbreak of the plague three months ago, many powerful people have tried to find the source of the plague, but to no avail. The churches of the true gods also communicated with the gods and prayed to the gods for answers, but even the gods did not know how the plague came about. There is no way to solve the plague, only to purify those who are infected by the plague of the living dead.

Although there is no clear answer, there are many conjectures about the origin of the plague. Some people say that it may be that an evil mage may have communicated with the demon lord in the abyss, and the undead ruled Elk, causing this disaster that affected the entire continent. Others say that it may have been a curse cast by a powerful evil god. Others say that it may be a plague that has spread from an ectopic plane...... Some people even say that it was the disaster caused by the legendary Demon Lord of Destruction......"

"It can't be the Demon Destroyer, right?" Li Qing hurriedly said, "The Demon King of Destruction has been defeated many years ago! ”

As he spoke, he secretly muttered in his heart: Su Su's reputation is really widespread, obviously he has not yet attacked this plane, and the people of this plane have actually heard of her reputation. But that's not a good reputation, it looks bad. Even this kind of thing was on her head.

However, Li Qing can guarantee that the plague on the Calondo continent has absolutely nothing to do with Su Su.

The plane where the continent of Calondo is located has a time ratio of twenty to one to one on Earth. The plague broke out three months ago, four or five days ago in Earth time.

At that time, Su Su was immersed in the world of the abandoned house and couldn't extricate himself. Besides, the current Su Su was too weak to cast any offensive spells, and he was not capable of causing a large-scale plague that would spread so widely.

The girl sighed and said gloomily, "It's just a conjecture to say that the Demon King of Destruction did it. Exactly who created and spread this disaster has not been determined until now. And if the source of the plague cannot be found, there is no way to solve the plague at its root. Those of us who are alive can only try to survive. ”

Seeing her depressed look, Li Qing couldn't help but comfort: "As long as it is a plague, there will be a solution." This catastrophe cannot last forever. Maybe one day, the source of the plague will be found and the disaster will be resolved. ”

"I hope so." The girl smiled reluctantly and said, "By the way, I've been talking about it for so long, and I still don't know your name." Well, my name is Angelina. Highfield. It's a pleasure to see you alive in a city occupied by the living dead. ”

"My name is Bruce. Plum. Nice to meet you. Li Qing said his English name. Speaking in the lingua franca of Calondo, it sounds quite harmonious.

"My name is Chu." Chu Lingfeng directly reported his surname, and it was also catchy to pronounce.

After introducing themselves, the three of them are officially acquainted. Li Qing saw that Angelina's face showed a look of exhaustion, and knew that her injuries had not completely healed, and she was nervous and vigilant before, and she had talked so much to him and Chu Lingfeng, and now she should be very tired. So he smiled and said, "Angelina, you better rest for a while." Chu and I went to prepare the food, and when it was ready, I called you. ”

Angelina nodded and sat down at the head of the bed. After Li Qing and Chu Lingfeng came out, she lay down again, closed her eyes slightly, and rested.

Closing the door with his backhand, Chu Lingfeng asked Li Qing in a low voice, "Why didn't you ask her what she was here for just now?" ”

Li Qing smiled: "Don't rush, take your time." Let's go, let's go cook first. Luckily, I brought a lot of food with me before I came, and if I had come here to spend money on food, we would have to go hungry by this time. ”

Chu Lingfeng smiled: "Hey, do you think you're the only one who has the foresight?" I also have a lot of food in my bag. ”

"Sure enough, the hero sees the same thing." Li Qingha smiled and went to the temple kitchen with Chu Lingfeng.
