Chapter 12: Madness
"Warning! Warn! The mission level is temporarily adjusted, according to the latest information, there is a weak level abyss reaction in this mission world, there must be eroded individuals, there may be pollution sources, the danger level of this mission is assessed as extremely high, this node may not be able to rescue in time, and the souls who died in this world cannot be resurrected, so a day of replenishment preparation time is given. ”
"Pollution? Extremely high hazard level? ”
Looking at the surrounding scenery, recalling the warning sound of the node before the start of the mission, and the crimson that dyed the entire space into a sea of blood, Pang Zhi really wanted to ask if there was something wrong with that node.
This is a typical medieval village, at least in the impression of the vast majority of ordinary people in the 21st century, sparsely populated, with little armed force, a church in the village, a group of numb peasants, a farmer who seems to own all the land around it.
Except that the farmer is a pleasing little girl, there is nothing special about it.
And they've explored it before, and this world, with only a small place, a continent, seven countries, and the "endless" sea that surrounds the continent, and nothing else.
Whether it is the signal from the satellite or the information echoed by magic, it shows that this world is not even comparable to the earth in terms of land area. The level of civilization is very low, the level of biological evolution is very low, and the space of the world is very small, it is really difficult to imagine such a world worthy of extremely high danger.
"Don't be careless, there are big problems in this world."
Nanami Chiaki is not as optimistic as Pang Zhi, and her knowledge tells her that everything is wrong now.
As I said before, this world is very small, so the satellite has scanned the whole world, but under such scanning, no trace of the evil god has been found, and everything looks like it is on the surface.
But Nanami Chiaki still noticed that something was unusual, the whole world was too normal, and all the parameters were normal, but it should be a complete world, not a small prison like now.
The words of the conversation between the two did not leak out, and the farmer girl in front of her was still talking to No. 16, who disguised herself as an adventurer, or rather a nobleman who had no inheritance rights but still had a little money.
Because of his past experiences in Rome, Italy, Naples, and other places, No. 16 is very comfortable with how to play such a role, and there is not a trace of flaw in his words, with a trace of the demeanor that the aristocracy has long trained and engraved in his bones, and the characteristic rebellion of youth to talk smoothly with the other party.
Faced with the double temptation of handsome guys and rich people, and what she told was not a secret, the girl naturally said everything.
Therefore, a lot of information was easily gathered, for example, this village and several surrounding villages belonged to a knight named Browning, who was a knight in his 40s, who had participated in a battle, and it was in that battle that he was awarded the title of knight.
In other words, he was just a peasant before, and he had nothing to do with the aristocracy, and these villages, of course, were the poorest villages in the hands of the nobleman above him.
"It's not just the barren land, but the peasants are also greedy and ignorant, and they hope that one day the sky will drop food for them compared to farming, which really makes a few people laugh, and the situation should be better than the core area of the empire."
"Well, that's not for sure, there are foolish guys everywhere, and the fertility of the soil only makes those guys more lazy."
The similarity of angles makes the conversation between the two very pleasant, whether it is self-righteous superiority, hypocritical disguise, and contempt for laborers.
"What else is the reason?" Shaflin groaned.
He had seen a lot of depravity, a lot of ugliness and despair, so he knew very well that the numbness on the faces of those around him was not just what it was like to be bound to the land and to his own class, and if it was only the majority of people, it might be able to explain it with the previous things.
But now it's all, and the whole village has only numbness on their faces, and they are simply living like single-celled creatures, whether they are old people, young adults, or children.
"The misery of life cannot bring despair to the young and ignorant."
"Read on, I have a hunch that that kind and lovely girl will give us the answer."
The young farmer was very welcoming, not only with the best ingredients, but also inviting these outsiders to stay overnight to wash away the fatigue of the road, although the "best ingredients" were still as challenging to the human palate as dark cuisine in medieval cooking.
Of course, several people accepted such an invitation, after all, after experiencing a journey all the way, they finally had a place to rest, and they had just had a full stomach, and a sense of drowsiness arose.
Then, when the 16th opened his eyes again, he was hung in the air with his hands tied, and not far from him, his companion was also suspended in the air, and in front of him, the "kind and lovely" girl of the day had her back to him humming some tones.
Although the tones sounded cheerful, there was still an eerie feeling around them.
"Ah, you're awake, sorry, sorry, looks like I got a little bit of a wrong dose, I was supposed to wait until it all started before waking you up."
The girl's smile is exactly the same as in the daytime, but it gives people the opposite feeling.
"You ......"
The girl didn't pay attention to No. 16, and said to herself, "By the way, I saw you eating, that kind of pig food is very difficult to eat." ”
"But there is no way to do it, after all, the things that those pigs grow can only be pig food, and there are no good raw materials, even I can't make delicious things, but now it's okay."
No, it's not good, it's very bad.
Just looking into the eyes of the other party, the 16th has already guessed the other party's thoughts.
"Although you didn't take good care of yourself, it was a failure, but after all, your parents still took good care of you, so you can barely qualify, so, it's an honor, at least you met me before you wasted your value."
She's crazy.
"How many people have you eaten?"
"I remember this very clearly, 142 people, among them, there is a noble lady who is the most delicious, she is very well maintained, and the taste is ......."
"Poof!"
A hand covered the girl's mouth, and the short blade stretched out from the cuff, penetrating the girl's skin and muscles, bypassing the defense of the bones, and inserting it into the girl's heart accurately, stirring it hard, turning the thing into a pile of pieces.
But, she didn't die.
The moment her body was crooked, her hands and feet twisted, white light flashed, and the arm of the being behind her was cut off, and she slid into the distance.
"Huh? It turns out that you are the same, that's really rude, you are the highest food. ”
The monster twisted its body and dripped saliva to express its sincere apologies to everyone.
