Chapter 509: Mutation
The Rakshasa set off and began to look around for the monster that had caused the plague. And Dongfang Xiao also set off with Rakshasa together.
"I'm so sorry, you should be a guest in the village, but let me do such a dangerous thing with you." Rakshasa said apologetically.
"No, it has nothing to do with you, I volunteered to act with you." Dongfang Xiao shook his head, in fact, he was just a little curious about the relationship between Rakshasa and Di Ruiji, it is said that the identity of Rakshasa is Di Ruiji's right-hand man, but judging from the current situation, the relationship between the two is not only not so close, but should be more like enemies, what happened during this period made Dongfang Xiao very interested. This search continued for several days, but every day was the same result, and the monster that appeared from the spatial rift that day disappeared as if it did not exist at all, but the growing plague in the village proved that the monster did indeed exist.
Eventually, the villagers decided to ask for help, a large city hundreds of miles away, which was home to many clever magicians, who might be able to solve the plague that was raging in the village. One of the villagers on this mission is one of the magicians, and he is probably the most skilled magician in the village except for Rakshasa , but this is only one of the reasons, and the other reason is that he does not seem to be affected by the plague.
Speaking of which, the number of people affected by the plague in the village has reached about half, and most of the remaining half are some strong young people, as well as magicians who practice magic, their physical fitness is much stronger than ordinary people, so their resistance to the plague is also stronger, but this does not mean that they can resist the impact of the plague. Maybe they have already been infected with the plague, but because of their relatively strong resistance, the symptoms have not yet manifested.
The people in the village began to change slowly, and after their bodies were weakened to a certain extent, they actually recovered, but gradually emitted a rancid smell on their bodies, and this rancid smell was mixed with a hint of fragrance, which seemed to have a different kind of temptation for the other villagers. The Rakshasas instinctively felt that this was not a good thing, and the plague they were infected with did not seem to be as simple as a simple plague.
Rakshasa still found nothing, he investigated almost all the places around the village within a 50-mile radius, but found nothing, but if the monster that appeared that day had already left, what about the plague on the villagers? Rakshasa had almost given up on finding the monster, and instead had put his hope in the great city, and if it was a magician in that great city, there might be some way.
A few days later, the messenger finally returned, but it wasn't good news. He did report the news to the big city, but the magicians in the city did not send reinforcements after discussion, but sent a team stationed dozens of miles outside the village, closely monitoring everything here, and the magician heard a name in their mouths, that is, "Direji", and the most desperate thing for the villagers was that almost all the people in the village showed signs of the plague, even the magician who had been away from the village for a long time. Now in the entire village, it seems that the only ones who have not been affected are Rakshasa and Dongfang Xiao.
"Diriji...... Is that the name of the monster? Rakshasa smiled wryly, and everything seemed to prove that the village had been abandoned.
Dongfang Xiao is silent, his existence is like a phantom wandering in this world, he has no power to change everything that happens in this world, he can only be a powerless bystander.
"In my body, too, there is a situation of plague." Rakshasa said bitterly to Dongfang, he rolled up the sleeves on his clothes, except for his own red arms, there were already many small red spots on his arms, a bit like allergies, but he knew that this was just a sign of the plague.
"What about you, aren't you affected?" Rakshasa said to Dongfang Xiao with some hope, he had been observing Dongfang Xiao, but found that Dongfang Xiao did not seem to be affected by the plague.
"Me?" Dongfang Xiao sighed lightly and shook his head: "I will not be affected by the plague. ”
"If I can save the villagers here, if I can save them, I am willing to pay any price!" There was a hint of pleading in Rakshasa's eyes, and it was extremely painful to see the villagers suffering from the plague.
"I'm sorry, there's nothing I can do." Dongfang Xiao sighed again, "Actually, I don't exist in this world, what I see is just a phantom, what happens in this world is already doomed, and I have no way to change your fate." With that, Dongfang Xiao walked towards Rakshasa, but his body did not touch Rakshasa, but passed through Rakshasa's body like a phantom.
"Is that so?" Hearing such shocking news, Rakshasa had no intention of expressing surprise at this, not knowing that the villagers in this village had no hope.
"Since you say our fate is predestined, can you tell me what my final fate will be?" Rakshasa thought to Dongfang in despair.
"I don't know." Dongfang Xiao shook his head, "I don't know what the fate of this village will turn into in the end, I can only tell you that you won't disappear from this world so simply." ”
"Is that so?" There seemed to be some relief in Rakshasa's tone, but there was a hint of special meaning, no matter how to say that he would not simply die, such news was still worth celebrating.
"Since you said I wouldn't die so easily, then I wouldn't give up so easily, and I'm going to continue to search for the monster called Diregi, maybe the only one can save the inhabitants of this village."
"Ask Direj for help?" Dongfang Xiao shook his head slightly, this is simply an absolutely impossible idea, for the apostle Di Ruiji, the life of a small village is insignificant at all.
"I will walk with you, and I will witness your fate with you." Dongfang Xiao said solemnly, and added another sentence in his heart: "If this is the fate you want me to see." ”
