Section 353: Confirmation (1)

Marin always wondered why he fell asleep yesterday - usually, falling asleep suddenly means that he was about to embark on a very unexpected adventure.

It would have been a wonderful and sad trip, but this time, nothing.

There was nothing from previous eras, just fragments of dreamless sleep.

It's really strange that when Marin woke up from the bed again, he had nothing to think of but sigh.

Maybe it's really too tired, or adjust it, if you die of overwork, no one will pay his girls a pension in this kind of hellish place.

When I got up, the girls seemed to have gotten up early, and Marin glanced at himself in his glasses - he had grown a lot taller today.

After confirming it, today's height is 1.53 meters, and it seems that the paternal bloodline has once again entered a stable period.

This is my real height, good boy, do things well.

After patting his face, Marin changed into a set of clothes - only if you are prepared, but fortunately Marin has prepared a lot of clothes, otherwise she would have no clothes to wear today.

But then again, what is the situation of this dress, why is the waist so low, and the navel is exposed.

"Lilim." Marin screamed.

Then within a few seconds, Lilim went into the room, and when she saw Marin, she clapped her hands happily: "Mr. Marin is very handsome today." ”

Oh, yesterday you said I was cute.

"Why is the waistband so short?" Marin gestured to his new pants.

"This is the most popular new model in the Wangdu area, I bought it, it fits." Lilim said as she walked over to Marlin and checked Marlin's leg with her hand: "Ah, I know, it's a good fit." ”

"But my waist is short, my silly girl, my belly is exposed."

"It's okay, boy's belly, see the light." Lilim said, raising a smirk brow.

Then Marlin flicked his forehead with his finger - absolutely no force.

The little lamb clutched his forehead and was a little unhappy.

"Next time, buy me a few taller ones." After Marlin finished speaking, the confident little lamb took out a shirt from the box.

Looking at her look at the "Wear this, Mr. Marlin", Marlin took the shirt and put it on.

Well, indigo leg-trimmed flared pants with yellow shirts with black lines for netting...... Well, if this yellow were to be used in the words of everything postmodern, it would be #FFCC99.

Well, if you perm your hair and put it on with the black leather shoes you just put on...... Well, if you take a large twin-horn radio again, it has a new era of archaic flavor.

"Mr. Marin is the most handsome." Lilim changed her adjective, and when she looked at Marlin, her eyes were about to burst into stars.

"What if I'm still 1.2 meters today." Marlin rubbed her head.

"I'm prepared." Lilim said as she pulled out khaki bib pants, a white short-sleeved shirt, and "Sister Faye, but I've given you all to me!" ”

yes, what the hell are these white stockings and little red leather shoes?

Thinking of this, Marin stretched out his hand and snapped his fingers again.

………………

"Honey, you don't look good."

Looking at Lilim, who had a puffed face, and Marlin, who didn't look very good, behind her, Faye smiled and said hello while putting down the sisters' breakfast.

"If you get a pair of pretty goat horns, you're going to have a hard time." Marlin rolled his eyes, then reached out and wiped Lilim's waist, and the itchy little lamb laughed, then turned to attack.

Marin clutched his chest and sat down at the table: "Do you have any itinerary for today?" ”

"Yes, Mr. Moritty's second son invited us to dinner, do you want to go?"

"Whatever the guest wants, is there anything else?" Taking the salad plate that Cross handed over, Marin asked.

"The assistant priests of each church have a message that if you attend the dinner, they will meet you at the dinner." Faye holds the egg with psionic energy in one hand and cooks with fire magic in the other.

"It's good to see you, by the way, Matilda." Taking the steak from Maya, Marin noticed that a girl was missing.

"The Church of the Lord of Justice has taken action, and she has gone over to help." Placing the fried egg on a plate, Faye handed it to Marlin along with it.

Taking the omelette, Marin thought for a moment and stood up: "I'll come when I go." ”

With that, Marin smiled apologetically and then burrowed into the open portal.

………………

Matilda's semi-automatic musket emptied a magazine, and the empty cabin immediately told the fox girl that the guy in her hand had no food, and she took out the magazine from her waist and loaded it - used the magazine to push the clip, quickly change the magazine, and then pulled the trigger on the rushing corpse.

This morning, word came from the local Church of Justice that the church would dispose of a living corpse camp outside the city.

This was a very normal operation, the Duchy of Farol was vast and sparsely populated, and every time the living corpses went south, it was impossible for all the living corpses to die in the siege, and sometimes some lonely living corpses would gather and set up camp far away from the city where the living gathered.

Yes, the camp, although they move on four limbs, they do look like people in appearance.

And they have the ability to use the most basic tools, and the Church of Justice has theorized about this - these living corpses, human beings before the Great Apocalypse, actually have the same ancestors as the living humans, and they don't know why they have become what they are now.

The church has captured living corpses more than once, but no matter how much education they have, they can't behave like normal humans, and autopsy has confirmed that their brains have been severely atrophied.

Therefore, there is only a life-and-death struggle between the two sides.

But this time, there are too many living corpses in this camp.

Matilda looked at the living corpses that were still coming out of the narrow exitβ€”the casters had sealed the huge exit with their spells, but now the corpses had smashed through three of them, and were now burrowing out.

The magazine of twenty rounds was quickly exhausted, and Matilda reached for her waist, and the last one.

"Your Excellency, I still have one last magazine." Matilda turned her head to look at the priest beside her.

The latter was firing a revolver with no shots, and looked at Matilda when he heard the words: "No bullets?" "- Poor God, he only fired less than 20 shots.

Matilda nodded: "I've already hit 120 rounds." ”

The big-eared fox once again confirmed that he was really saving money.

"I finally understand why your musket is so expensive." Mr. Priest sighed with a wry smile.

"I'm sorry, I didn't bring too many bullets, I thought there were only a hundred living corpses in this camp." Matilda was also a little embarrassed.

However, when she said this, it was the priest who was embarrassed: "If you want to say sorry, it should be us, we would not have thought that these living corpses would dig the ground......" Before she could finish speaking, Matilda and the assistant priest turned their heads together and saw the mound of earth rising behind them, which was still rising.

"They've dug through the tunnels!"

Seeing the mound being lifted and the living corpses coming out, Matilda turned her head to look at the assistant priest who was calling for rescue with carrier pigeons: "Our reinforcements have arrived, Your Excellency." ”

"What nonsense are you talking about! I haven't released the pigeon yet! The assistant priest stared at the big-eared fox with wide eyes, and then a living corpse landed between him and her with a loud bang, and it landed on its head in a twisted position that normal humans couldn't even understand.

"My Mr. Marlin is here." With that, Matilda took the hard leather bag full of magazines from the branch of Fio, who was rushing by.

Marlin blasted the living corpses like whack-a-mole, and then poured a burst of flames into the tunnel.

Before that, Marin put on a gas mask for himself, and blocked his sense of smell, and then slapped his big-eared fox, as for the assistant priest and other unlucky people around her, it was not for him to control.

Leaving the tunnels to the members of the Church of Justice, Marin walked over to the priests: "I have never heard of a living corpse digging tunnels and underground dwellings. ”

"Maybe it's because the living corpses hate the sun, and this camp of theirs is also a backlit area." The young man next to him said, and then he held out his hand to Marin: "Hello, I'm David Julius, the head of the Farol Regional Sage Group in charge of the history of this region. ”

"Who is Konstantin Julius?" Marin shook his hand and asked out of curiosity.

"Grandfather, he is now in his hometown in the royal capital of Sidney, do you know him?"

"Yes, your grandfather helped me, and I have a corollary about living corpses." Marin said, reaching out and grabbing a living corpse with its neck twisted and dragged behind a bunker made of rocks and broken logs.

"What are you dragging the living corpses for?" David asked with some curiosity.

"When I came from Fort Carter, I saw living corpses, and at that time, living corpses were full of cysts and lumps, and you can see this corpse, but the skin is a little cracked and lost, and it doesn't look much different from humans." Marin pulled a stone platform, and Manna opened the surgical bag, pulled out a scalpel from it and slapped it on Marin's hand.

David also stood up, and he stood up to Marin: "Yes, but living corpses with cysts and lumps are usually found in the north, and their shells are so hard that ordinary bullets can't even penetrate them. ”

"And why are these southern relatives like this, they look extremely weak." The scalpel in Marlin's hand cut through its exterior with great ease.

David stretched out his hand, Marin handed him the knife, and then watched the young man cut for a long time without being able to cut anything, he returned the knife: "I think this should be your problem." ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ All right. Marin nodded: "But in any case, they are very different in appearance, and this is indeed my most suspicious point, do you think there will be a destruction zone on the other side of the mountains that we have never discovered." Marin finished speaking, looking at young David, expecting his answer.

"It's possible, but there are too many living corpses in the mountainous area, and the tech hunters haven't been able to go deep into it, they have found a lot of small settlement ruins and some large buildings before the great destruction, we don't know their function, and there are too many living corpses in these areas, it is impossible to understand and investigate in depth." David said as he watched Marin pull open the abdomen of the living corpse: "There are a lot of aberrations in the internal organs, you look at this lung, physiological changes. ”

"Yes, and hearts, people don't have two hearts, one big and one small." The scalpel in Marlin's hand cut twice, without force, and the valve blocked the cut of the scalpel in Marin's hand.

"I'm more curious about their reproductive systems, look, animal-like constricted organs, they're more like animals than we humans, and the more I know about them, the more I can't believe that their ancestors are exactly the same as ours." As David spoke, he heard a reminder from the priest's side.

Marin turned his head with him to see a spiky corpse cub appear behind the rushing corpse.

"We need to live!" David shouted.

Marin whistled, and Merlot immediately jumped out of the line, transforming into a treant and sweeping through the rushing corpses, while Lorraine rushed through the crowd and tied up the fleeing cub.

Marlin grabbed it with psionic energy and pulled it over.

"Oh my gosh, normal skin." David looked at the cub in front of him, and he reached out and stroked it: "It's the same as us." ”

"Very interesting finding, haven't you ever found cubs in a camp like this before?" Marin also touched the cub's face, and found that this is the softness of human beings, and when he opened his mouth, Marin realized that it was not a human - its teeth were very sharp, and it was not human at all.

"Do we need an autopsy?" David asked.

"I don't stab a cub, even if it's not human." Marin shook her head, and Manna immediately put away her tools, and the used scalpel was placed in a special recycling box: "What's more, I think a living corpse cub is so much like a person, I think it's a very good object to be tamed." ”

After speaking, Marin looked at the assistant priest: "Your Excellency, what do you say." ”

"Everything is up to Lord Marin." The assistant priest nodded and replied, "By the way, Your Excellency, can this cub really be handed over to us to cultivate?" ”

"I'll leave it to you, I don't think there are many of these guys left, just now their attack should be covering the retreat of this living cub, have you confirmed the live cub in action before."

"I've done seventeen times, and no, Your Excellency."

"I'm more, twenty-three times, and no."

The two replied that Marin somewhat confirmed his conjecture: "Then I can now confirm that there is indeed a black zone in the mountains, and the living corpses have obtained all kinds of distortions over there, and similarly, their children are also used to surviving in that environment, and when they come here, their children are very difficult to survive, have you confirmed the stomach contents of the living corpses and the shape of the skulls of the bones in your previous actions?" ”

"No, but we can do it, we just finished another cleanup a week ago." The assistant priest said to Marin.

"Then you can let me know when there is news." Marin said as he looked at the entrance and exit where no new living corpses appeared: "I'll leave it to you, I'll take Matilda first." ”

"Thanks to you, Your Excellency." To tell the truth, the assistant priest is truly grateful to Marin, if it weren't for the young branches of the World Tree pressing the field, the living corpses would have already rushed into battle.

"Don't thank me, it's right to help you." Marin smiled and patted Matilda's head: "Let's go." ”

"Don't slap me on the head, I'm not a child." The big-eared fox screamed.

Marlin laughed, then slapped it twice.
