Chapter 332: Eternal Life in the Fire

She said...... She said she was going to wear this long dress...... She's kept it, and she said she'd wait until you come back......" said Count Sutter, choking up beside Eugen, his voice full of sadness.

At this moment, a great sadness struck Eugen, and he only felt a sharp pain in his chest, as if someone had put his hand into his body and put it on his heart.

Then, there is a heavy sense of falling, as if falling into a bottomless abyss, something is gone forever and will never return.

The room was in a deep state of mourning, and the priest stepped forward, covered Caterina's face with a white cloth, and began to recite the words of the Bible.

Count Sartre was sad and wanted to go up to shake his daughter's hand, but was blocked by the two sons, Caterina was infected with the Black Death and died, in this case, if you get close to the corpse, it is likely to cause a new infection.

Eugen's facial expression was very calm, sadness was hidden in the depths of his eyes, he raised his hand to wipe away his tears, and said indifferently: "Burn her......"

"What?" Count Sartre didn't seem to hear clearly, and looked back at Eugen in a daze, and after a moment he suddenly became furious, pointed at Eugen and scolded: "You conscienceless thing! My daughter is in love with you, and you will burn him as soon as she dies! ”

Anger surged into his heart, and Count Sartre pulled out his sword with a bang, pointed at Eugen and said: "You dare to let down my daughter, watch me cut you with a sword!" ”

It's no wonder that Count Sartre is angry like this, after the last robber incident, some news has reached the ears of Count Sartre, plus some anomalies since his daughter came back, Count Sartre directly decided that his daughter was slept with by Eugen.

Under normal circumstances, Count Sartre would have taken Eugen with his soldiers and killed him with a knife.

It's just that Eugen is Caterina's savior after all, and Caterina seems to have a good impression of Eugen, so Count Sutter put aside this matter for the time being, and is ready to talk to Eugen first to see if it can lead to a good relationship.

However, before he could talk to Eugen, Caterina had already contracted the disease and unfortunately died, which was an unbearable blow to the elderly Count Sartre, and at this moment, in a fit of anger, he really wanted to kill Eugen with a sword.

Although Eugen's face was calm, the sadness in his eyes could not be concealed, and when he heard the words of Count Sartre, he turned to look at it, and once again there were tears in his eyes.

Raising his head slightly, his eyes staring blankly at the air, as if he saw Katerina's soul beckoning to him in the air, Eugen said slowly in a low voice: "She is a woman like a flame, even if she dies, she should burn like a flame." ”

Hearing Eugen's words, Count Sartre was stunned, he turned to look at Caterina's bright red robe, Eugen's analogy is very vivid, in retrospect, Caterina is indeed a woman as hot as a flame.

At this time, the priest who was standing by also stepped forward and said in due time: "Lord Count, Miss Caterina has gone to heaven and has joined the arms of the Lord, and what remains here now is only a remnant of her body. ”

Under the persuasion of the two of them, Count Sartre finally calmed down, he waved his hand weakly, and said, "That's it, even if Caterina is still alive, she must agree with our decision." ”

With that, he turned away, not wanting to see the scene.

Seeing that Count Sartre agreed, the two soldiers of the Anti-Disaster Army, who had been waiting outside the door for a long time, walked up, and everyone present stepped back, and the Anti-Disaster Army soldiers brought gloves, masks and other protective equipment, and then carried Caterina to the stretcher.

Outside the castle, a pyre has been piled up, with velvet and other decorations on top, and a circle of tulip flowers around it.

Caterina's body was carried onto the pyre, and the crowd followed suit, watching the scene.

Count Sartre was a man of iron after all, and he took the torch from the squire next to him in his grief, and then went to the pyre and lit the fire himself.

Coaxing, tongues of fire climbed up, gradually igniting the red dress, the flames wrapped Caterina's body, and her face looked more delicate and lovely against the backdrop of the flames.

Eventually, however, the flames engulfed her, and her face was hidden below, making it impossible to see clearly.

Eugen stood by the fire with his lips pursed and did not say a word, in fact, he had a lot of things in his heart that he wanted to say to Caterina, but after today, these words could only be said to Qingfeng.

Eventually, all the words could turn into a sigh, and Eugen took a deep look at the flames before turning away from the place, where there was a crisis in Verona and more to deal with.

Otherwise, tragedies like this will continue to happen!

Leaving the Earl's Castle, Eugen rushed to the place where the witch doctor Pirantz was, and asked who knew the most about the situation of the Po River defense line at the moment, and it was definitely him.

"Pirantz, tell me how things are now!"

Before he could enter the room, Eugen shouted loudly into the room, and Piranz, who was in the room, heard the movement and immediately hurried out: "Eugen! You can count it back, if you don't come back, I really can't help it. ”

Pirantz walked quickly to Eugen's side, nodded and said.

"Well, tell me what the Po line is right now." Eugen said again and again, and walked briskly indoors: "Give me a detailed indication of the outbreak on the map. ”

"Okay, Lord Eugen, come with me, I'll do this work a long time ago." Pirantz spoke, and walked forward.

As soon as you enter the room, you can see a huge map hanging on the wall, which is a map of the entire Po River defense line, everything is marked so clearly that even the streets and residential areas of the city can be cleaned and identified.

The map was originally black and white, but now, the map is marked with dense red dots, and it looks like a patch of red paint has been sprinkled on it.

The red dot radiated from west to east, with Verona as the center, in all directions, and even the city of Venice, which was the farthest away, had problems.

"The situation in Venice was reported by Mr. Dirmit, and according to them, it seems that there was a sudden outbreak in the city, without any warning, and it was not controllable at all."

Piranz said nervously that the current situation is really not optimistic.
