For a moment, the atmosphere in the warehouse sank.

A gust of wind blew, and the inside of the warehouse was dusty, driving the door of the warehouse to slowly close by itself.

Suddenly, the light from the outside world was cut off, and the inside of the warehouse became dark again. The midday sun poured in through the dirty window, turning into a dull and thin yellow.

Roland couldn't see Akajika's expression clearly. But he could hear the faint creaking of his fists as they clenched.

"Damn!"

Akajika's fist slammed into the ground, and the air currents stirred up the dust, and Roland immediately smelled an even more choking smell of dust and flew out. He couldn't help but reach out and cover his mouth and nose.

Before Roland could think of what to say, Akajika jumped up from the ground and raised her leg to rush out. With a loud bang, the door of the hidden warehouse was slammed open by him, making a violent squeak, and the midday sun suddenly poured in again.

"Arsu! Where are you going? ”

Roland squinted his eyes at Akaji Ahu and shouted behind him, "Don't get excited! Let's discuss it first! ”

“…… It's too late. ”

After a long time, Akajika's unusually hoarse voice came: "When they leave the scene, it's really too late." ”

The white sunlight completely enveloped his figure. Enveloped in scorching and bright light, the outlines of Akaji's body are blurred.

He stretched out an arm and blocked the bounce back door. The arm muscles of the other hand tightened, causing the entire upper body to tremble.

"Nothing was too late. Or rather, it's too late anyway. ”

Roland's calm and cold voice came from behind him: "It's a fact that things are out of control. No amount you can do can only stop the loss from expanding further. That's all. ”

"Now the plague has just begun, and few people have been infected...... It's still too late. ”

Akajika's voice was low and hoarse. It sounds like the sound of a hungry canine creature threatening something.

"So, what are you going to do? Did you kill the infected? Kill them and burn them. And then buried deeply? How do you explain this to their families? ”

Roland pressed forward step by step.

"—that's better than spreading the plague! It's better to kill a dozen people than to watch tens of thousands die! ”

Akajika turned around and shouted in an almost uncontrollable hiss, "Then what do you want me to do?" They died because of me! If I don't sign that, they won't die! The plague will not be contagious! Are you telling me to run away from here with a clear conscience?! ”

"Don't think too much of yourself, Arsu."

Roland's voice sounded faintly: "Even if you don't sign, the earl will find someone else to sign." You can't change anything. ”

"You ......"

"If you don't believe me, just sit down and listen to me. After entering the door, we can roughly estimate from the missing shape of the piled up bandages that there are about eighteen to twenty-two or three groups of bandages that have been removed. These bandages are enough to bandage 300 people. The bandages we had previously taken apart were three sets with three spots stained with blood. Other words. Fewer than twenty people were infected. ”

"So, what are you going to do? Tear apart all the bandages of the three hundred men and see if any of them had their bandages contaminated with blood. No kidding, after the injury was treated and bandaged, that level of blood was already covered up by the wounded's own blood. ”

Roland's voice seemed to come from the abyss, making Akaji's whole body chill, tremble, and despair: "You can't find those twenty people." And suppose that the side with the blood stain is not pierced inside, but is exposed, then except for the wounded. Both the healer and the nearby wounded will become infected. As long as you miss someone, then eventually seven days after he dies of illness, the plague will still break out. Whoever you mistakenly killed will die a senseless death. ”

"—After hearing this, did you still decide to save them with your own means?"

Akajika was silent.

It's been a long, long time. He whispered, "I'm going to try." ”

"I wouldn't be at ease if I didn't give it a try...... Even if it's for my own sake, I have to give it a try. ”

"So. One last word, my friend. Roland's lazy voice came from behind Arsu, "Be careful not to touch the blood. Otherwise, you'll get infected. ”

"Thanks, Roland......"

Akajika smiled bitterly, but the trembling on his body had subsided, and his voice was no longer out of control.

Before he was about to leave the door, he finally asked Roland, "I'm sorry, my friend...... I can't protect you anymore...... Will you still pray for me? ”

"If you're dead, let me know."

Roland replied, "I will give you rest." ”

As if redeemed, Akajika laughed. A smile as warm as the sun bloomed on his face.

"Thanks! Brothers! ”

Gaining strength from Roland's answer, Akajika touched the slashing sword behind her back and smiled intoxicatedly: "If I can still come back, I'll invite you to drink!" ”

With that, he closed the door.

In the dimly lit warehouse, Roland rested on the bandages without hesitation, and closed his eyes slightly.

"Ahh I'll wait for you. ”

His voice was calm and calm. There is no worry that the red tree will encounter an accident.

Because Roland knew from the beginning that there was no blood at all.

The proof is that when Roland touched the three blood marks, his plague nest was not triggered, and he did not enter the infected state.

In other words, the blood marks on these bandages are all fake. There is no contagion at all.

If Roland is not mistaken, Farina's script goes like this: first give the news of the plague to the red oak flowers, and make him find a way to turn his eyes to the bandages, and realize that there is some kind of cattiness hidden in these new bandages.

When Akajika discovers the blood in the bandage, he will immediately think of the news of the plague, and he will usher in his first despair.

Then, in a short decision, Akajika chooses to "purify" all the "infected" and even all the injured to prevent the plague from breaking out. After he completes this, he will rightfully be wanted by Carral. He was relieved when he didn't leave the place, but stayed for at least a week to see if he had cleared all the plague carriers, and when he got the news that no one had turned to ashes after a week. And get out of here.

At this time, Duoduo, who really carried the blood stains, had just arrived here for a few days and brought genuine blood stain syndrome. The surrounding towns have been infected, and when the red tree arrives in Linzhen, she will find out what the real bloodstain syndrome looks like.

He would immediately realize that the infected he had "purified" before were not actually infected with the plague. And so the second despair came.

By the time he hurried back to Rizero, it was almost dead.

Despair will completely overwhelm the red oak, and Falina has only just arrived here. In the face of the collapsed Akaji, Falina can easily direct Akaji's hatred towards Roland or others, such as the Professor.

And this is, Roland has gone to the City of Fortune or the Grand Cemetery of the White Wolf and left Richero. Nature will not stop Farina's actions.

Thus, the extreme plague purifier, the red oak flower, was born.

In the coming Plague Revival, he will be a natural disaster. His presence alone would shatter many of Roland's plans. After all, Roland only wanted to use the plague to make the general public despair and abandon the belief in the gods for more than a thousand years. Only gods who have lost their faith will become mortals, pulled to the ground and killed. And after the gods were purged or completely pulled to the ground, the priests of the Three Saints such as Roland would take action to treat the plague and regain the faith of mortals.

However, if those people were slaughtered by the red oak or quickly killed by Farina's plague, the gods would still be pulled to the earth, and it would be impossible to restore order.

Once the number of people is small enough to a certain extent, it is impossible to resist the invasion of demons and dusk species. Roland can be said to be waiting for death.

But now that Roland has seen through Farina's plan, he naturally won't let Farina move the red oak flower in the slightest. After Akajika falls into complete despair, Roland only needs to wash her face with a mouth cannon before Farina, and Akajika can be taken away directly by Roland - just like Kakarit.

What Roland just said to Akajika was just acting. His goal was to at least make Akajika act less impulsively. Or do it neatly, don't leave any tails behind, and add some extra trouble to yourself.

Roland could have gone to the City of Fortune later, after all, the Tree of Crucifixion was there, and Roland would not suddenly fly away if he didn't care about him. The White Wolf Grand Cemetery can be completed in just one night, and Roland can complete it in the interval between his journeys.

- He was trying to delay time, and he was going to break Farina's fruit.

Of course, this was Roland's previous plan.

After hearing Akajika's words of "brother", Roland changed his plan.

The fruit of the red tree flower has to be broken, but it can't be made so hard. And to achieve this, as long as Roland guides Akajika to escape, avoid the towns that Duoduo passes by.

It's not that difficult. As long as Roland wants to do it.

As for the current words......

Roland decided to take advantage of the fact that Akajika had completely forgotten about Roland as a "suspect", and he went outside to find Joseph first. When he returned, the dust would be settled.

But one thing is certain. That is, I am afraid that "Arsu" will still be like himself in history, and he will change his name to Ellasol. (To be continued.) )
