Chapter 84: The Red Death's Masquerade (3)
After Duan continued to ask Laili about the situation, he set off directly in the direction of the national capital, because the scientific and technological level of this planet is not high, and it is still at the point where transportation is basically relied on and communication is basically relied on roaring, so Duan Constant can only drive his eleventh road to hurry quickly. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Anyway, the current Duan is not what it used to be, such a little road is not a problem at all, his current running speed can reach a speed of more than 100 kilometers per hour, which can also be compared to the speed of ordinary cars on the earth, not to mention that on this planet where technology is not developed, it can be described as superhuman.
Duan continued to hold on at this speed for about a day, which is his limit at this stage, if he continues to run for a longer time, I am afraid that there is nothing he can do, but this is enough for him to run to the capital of this country.
At this time, if someone is on the way to the national capital, they will find that there is a flying dust galloping, Duan continued to run at this speed for about a day or so, and finally saw the city wall of the national capital.
He looked at the most majestic city in the country, and he couldn't help but be in awe, it is extremely rare for human beings to build such a majestic city in this era when science and technology are not developed.
Duan kept walking to the city gate, the original guards at the city gate have now disappeared, and the order of the entire city has collapsed, completely collapsed by this red death.
The original guards here may have died, or they may have fled, but now the capital of the entire Utopian country is like a dead city, with no life at all.
"Could it be that all the people in this city are dead, the power of the Red Death should not be so terrifying, and the population of this city is at least one million or more, and all of them will not die of the disease so quickly."
Duan kept thinking like this, so he walked quickly towards the city, and when he walked into the city, he finally saw the pedestrians on the street, but what puzzled him was that the people on the whole street gave him a feeling of lifelessness, like a corpse without a soul.
Everyone lowered their heads, even when they wanted to buy something, they kept their heads down, and after they had finished the things they needed, they still walked towards their homes with their heads down.
No one will communicate with other people on the street, as if they are afraid that the other party will infect them with the Red Death, and now even those closest to them have to be on guard, not to mention other passers-by on the street who do not know each other, all of this can become a deadly death, taking away their already fragile lives.
Duan kept trying to find someone to ask about the situation, of course, he wasn't looking for someone to ask about the Red Death, because he knew that for these ordinary people, the level of familiarity with the Red Death was probably not as good as his own, at least he still knew about the Red Death because the Red Death was doing something about it.
All he wanted to ask was the actual ruler of the country, the king of the country, where the palace was usually located in the middle of the capital, but he also had to know the specific route.
Duan kept looking for a long time and no one paid attention to him, and in the end he really angered him, he casually found a person, stepped forward and grabbed that person's sleeve, and was about to step forward to ask about the situation.
However, this person didn't give him a chance to ask, he struggled vigorously, and was even about to shout, Duan Chuan in order to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings, he threw the passerby on his shoulder with his hand and walked towards a hidden alley.
When he arrived in the alley, this person's reaction became even more intense, and he even started punching and kicking Duan Zhizhi, but these were just in vain, under Duan Zheng's perverted physique, no normal human could break free.
"Smack!"
Duan constantly saw that this person's emotions were too nervous, and he really couldn't calm down and let him ask about the situation, so he made a great decision temporarily, that is, he was going to let this guy calm down.
Of course, the best way to calm people down is to give him a slap, although I don't know what the saint said, but Duan Ji put this practice into practice, and directly slapped this guy in the face, and this slap went down, and the innocent passerby's face was obviously swollen.
The effect of Duan Zheng's slap also seemed to be fruitful, and this passer-by, who was originally uncooperative, was quiet at this time, because the young man in his twenties in front of him seemed to be a little grumpy, but he didn't say anything if he was just grumpy, but the most important thing was that this young man's temper was used on him, and this slap directly calmed him down.
In fact, it can also be said that this guy was frightened, and he was so frightened by Duan Constant's fierce face that he didn't dare to continue struggling, and looked at this man with a frightened face.
Duan continued to see that this passerby had finally calmed down, so he smiled kindly: "This uncle, isn't it okay to do this a long time ago!" Why struggle like this, in fact, I don't have any malicious intent, I just want to ask you a few questions, you don't have to be too nervous, I can promise that after asking, I will let you go. ”
This passer-by is a middle-aged man who is about fifty years old, so Duan constantly calls this passer-by an uncle in a mocking manner.
"Oh!"
This innocent passer-by uncle, looking at the other party's "harmless to humans and animals" eyes, was still fluctuating in his heart, but he still said honestly: "Now there is no one in the palace, and the king and queen don't know where they have gone. ”
Duan kept hearing this, and for a while he didn't know where to start, at the beginning, he was going to ask, does the king of this country know what the reason is, causing the Utopian country to be infected by the virus of the Red Death Demon, maybe this king will know some inside story, the Red Death Demon can't just destroy a country for no reason!
You know, the people of each of these countries can bring him considerable seven original sins. However, what he didn't expect was that this king would run away directly, and it was possible that this king was dead, but this possibility was not very likely, otherwise the Red Death would not have continued to slaughter the inhabitants of Utopia with the plague.
Thinking of this, Duan constantly looked at this innocent uncle with "harmless eyes of humans and animals" again, and asked, "You don't know where the king has run away?" Or do you have the intention to deceive me, you must know that I hate to be deceived the most, such as ....... ”
"Bang!"
only heard a "bang", and the passer-by was horrified to find that a wall made of bluestone behind him had been smashed into a big hole, which was simply not something that could be done by manpower.
"Is this guy a youkai?"
The passer-by uncle looked at the "harmless man and animal" young man in front of him in horror, and was speechless for a while, and hurriedly explained: "No, no, the king is really not in the palace now, and we don't know where the king has gone!" ”
"Otherwise, there would not be so much order in the capital now, and all the people would have lost hope, and the king would have abandoned his people."
After the passer-by said this, he turned his head to look at the young man opposite, but the young man still looked at him with a playful face, but he felt great pressure from this look, and tried to think about what he had forgotten.
After a while, the passer-by uncle had a flash of inspiration and said excitedly: "Ah! It occurred to me that there was another person he should be able to find, and that was Prince Prospero. ”
Duan kept looking at the passer-by and the uncle was puzzled: "Prince Prospero? What is the matter with this Prince Prospero, he did not live. Inside the palace? ”
The passer-by was relieved to see that the young man had finally stopped questioning him, and said with a sigh of relief: "Prince Prospero is a playful by nature, so he has deliberately enclosed a territory for himself in the east of the Utopian country, where there are prince's own subjects. ”
"It is said that at the time of the outbreak of the Red Death, Prince Prospero had led thousands of sturdy warriors and beautiful noblewomen to seclusion in a large monastery built high under his rule."
After saying this, the passer-by looked at Duan Zheng with an innocent face, and begged for mercy: "That's all I know, I really don't know the rest, please don't kill me." ”
However, before he could finish speaking, he found that the young man in front of him had disappeared at some point.
