Chapter Seventy-Eight: The Festering City
In desperation, the dwarf boss can only fight hard and use metallurgical magic.
"Catch the passengers!" shouted the dwarf boss, punching the mutant next to the driver.
The entire body of the bus was broken down and turned into a liquid that flowed to the ground. The passengers on the bus suddenly lost their attachments and fell from the air.
At this time, the Czechs quickly used the data flow barrier to spread a large net to catch the passengers who fell in the air. Only the mutant fell heavily to the ground, causing craters and cracks to appear in the ground.
"Oh, you've fallen so badly!" said the Czech, looking at the mutant who had fallen to the ground, in a mocking tone.
A few mutants stood up and were about to pounce on the Czechs.
At this moment, several mutants suddenly became motionless.
"Hey, Czech, don't underestimate these mutants!" said the dwarf boss warningly.
All the people on the data barrier landed safely, and as soon as they got to the ground, they bowed to the dwarf boss and the Czechs, and ran away in a hurry.
There was only one iron frame left, and the bus crashed into a roadside building due to the inertia of the momentum.
For a while, the whole building was pierced by a big bus, some wall fragments were splashed everywhere, and there were many broken sounds, forming the end of a loud bang.
As a thick cloud of dust covered half of the building, it slowly dispersed, and the dwarf boss and the Czech walked into the building to see if anyone was hurt.
"It's okay! no one is hurt!" said the dwarf boss with a long sigh of relief.
"So, let's go look elsewhere!," said the Czech, with some anxiety.
The two of them went to other places to inspect the mutants.
At this time, the third and fourth dwarfs met at a corner after walking a few streets.
I saw a group of people gathered downstairs, and some policemen shouted at a woman on the roof.
"Hey, don't jump, come down, there's something to discuss! It's not your only choice!" the cops shouted.
The crowd of onlookers were all talking, some were dissuading the woman, and some were speculating about the reason for jumping off the building.
I saw that the woman's complexion on the top of the building suddenly turned green, and she jumped downstairs with full muscles, and a half-squatting posture appeared downstairs.
As the smoke cleared, the people who retreated could clearly see that it was the woman who had jumped down the stairs just now.
She was in a half-crouching position, and a large crater appeared under her, and a crack appeared in the ground.
When the people saw the woman's appearance, they fled in fear. Several policemen were so frightened that they took a few steps back and pointed their pistols at the woman, signaling her not to act rashly.
The woman jerked to her feet and tried to lunge at the policemen.
"Bang bang bang!" I saw that the bullet did not cause any harm to the woman, and none of it entered her body, and was blocked by her skin.
More than a dozen warheads that were bent and deformed fell to the ground with a crisp sound.
Several policemen were so frightened that they quickly dodged, but unfortunately it was too late. The mutant knocked out several cops with a single punch and two kicks, and bit them.
At this time, the third and fourth dwarfs quickly stopped and used the soul pulling magic.
The mutant was about to take the next bite, but the magic was motionless.
After that, the dwarfs cleaned up the mutants in many places, leaving them trapped by magical threads and unable to move.
At this time, the second dwarf is on a bridge, looking at a cruise ship on the river.
When he looked closely, he found that the passengers on the cruise ship were indeed fleeing in a panic, some boldly jumped into the river, and some were running around on the cruise ship, avoiding mutants.
The second dwarf uses air pressure magic to quickly fly to the cruise ship in the center of the river.
When the second dwarf got on the cruise ship, he found that there were as many as four mutants, and it was a little tricky for a while.
At this time, other dwarfs also arrived, along with the Czechs.
"Czech, you're in charge of getting the ship to shore, getting the passengers ashore!" said the dwarf boss.
The Czechs ran into the wheelhouse of the cruise ship, adjusting the data, and manipulating it while taking it into account.
Four mutants want to pounce on the passengers.
The four dwarfs unleashed fire magic in time to blast at the mutants.
The four mutants fell to the ground, paused and stood up again, and lunged at the dwarfs.
Immediately, the dwarfs used their soul-pulling magic. Several threads of magic immobilize the mutants.
After that, the dwarfs also wiped out all the remaining goblin worms.
After the incident, the police department put all the mutants in a heavily guarded prison with many soldiers and weapons.
At this time, a festering illness occurred frequently in several other towns. Anyone with this condition will die of a few days of festering of the skin and internal organs.
Today's medicine is not able to cure this condition.
Because of the wide impact of this incident, it has been highly valued by the state.
The King of Nugking sent professionals to investigate the source of the disease and found that it was a problem with the water quality.
Several small towns use water from a single reservoir and have no other water resources. In addition, there is a large well in the slum that supplies water, but the inhabitants there also suffer from incurable diseases with ulcers all over their bodies.
People with ulcerated skin and internal organs were in great pain, and some of them were bumping around and breaking many things. The soldiers in the military district also gritted their teeth and endured the pain of festering. Some of the soldiers driving the tanks were frustrated and couldn't bear to let the tanks go off.
Immediately, more than a dozen shells were fired into the town, shattering some buildings.
Some of the soldiers couldn't help it and just shot themselves.
The investigation bureau sent by the king found that there were some problems with the water quality of the reservoir, but there were too few unidentified substances to determine that it was the source of the disease, and the wells in the slums were also found to contain small amounts of unidentified substances.
And this unknown substance cannot be purified by any other chemical substance.
As a result, the king asked the water stations in the towns not to receive and use the stored water of the Cadiz reservoir for the time being, but to replace the water stored in the reservoir and treat it before using it.
People who have lost water have an even worse festering disease, which is tormenting them even more.
So, a few days after the water change, the reservoir was put back into use. But many more people get ulcers after using it.
The investigation bureau tried very hard, but they couldn't find the polluted area, so they heard that there were a few amazing people with superpowers, and they wanted to cooperate with them, so they asked the police department for help.
The police station found out where the dwarfs lived.
"Knock knock!" there was a knock on the door, waking up the dwarfs from their dreams.
"Who! early in the morning!" cried out the second dwarf a little angrily, and opened the door.
"Hello, we're the police!" said a bearded policeman holding up his police card to the dwarf.
Five police officers and members of the Investigation Bureau entered the dwarfs' room.
The other dwarfs and Czechs heard the noise and came out of their respective rooms, and were a little surprised to see that it was the police.
"How are we policemen, are we breaking the law!!" the second dwarf thought to him, puzzled.
"Don't be nervous! we're here to assist the National Bureau of Investigation!" said the bearded officer.
"Hello, we're from the Bureau of Investigation! We'd like to ask for your help!" said a man in blue overalls, very respectfully to the dwarf.
"What can we do to help! We don't spies!" said the dwarf boss dismissively.
"No! No, this time our mission is on water!" said a member of the Bureau of Investigation.
The Bureau of Investigation told the dwarfs in great detail about the festering disease.
Both the dwarfs and the Czechs were very surprised.
"Would you like to help?" asked a member of the Bureau of Investigation.
"This can help," said the dwarf boss.
The people of the Bureau of Investigation took the dwarfs and they came to the ghetto.
Under the adobe bungalows, people of color sat or lay crying, looking in unbearable pain.
The slums are littered with piles of broken debris and some rubbish that accompany the wailing crowd.
Some of the skin on their bodies was ulcerated and sunk deep, and some even looked like carrion.
"What's wrong with them!oh! It's horrible!" said the second dwarf, looking at the ulcers on some of the people lying on the ground, and wanted to vomit in disgust.
"Oh my God, what's wrong with them!" said the dwarf boss, who could not bear to look at the festering people anymore.
When the dwarfs came to the town, they were even more in tatters. Buildings that have been bombarded by shells are a stark contrast to the festering residents.
"Oh!, was there a war just now!!," said the second dwarf.
"Not only are the inhabitants festering, but even the buildings are in tatters! this is really the festering city," said the dwarf boss.
"Okay! you should be investigating!" said the Bureau of Investigation.
"Take us to the reservoir! maybe the polluted ground is there," said the dwarf boss.
The group of them followed the Bureau of Investigation to the Cadiz Reservoir.
A sample of water was taken from the Czech Republic for data analysis.
"As expected, these unknown substances! It should be some extremely corrosive surging liquid flowing from that dungeon! Although it is corrosive when encountering such a large amount of water, it is still a little corrosive! And it is toxic!"
"If it's toxic, why! People aren't dying, they're getting festering!?" asked the investigator.
"This unidentified substance exists in small quantities! and it is divided," the Czech said.
"So if there really is a certain amount of this unidentified substance, why can't we find the contaminated area!?" the Bureau of Investigation asked.
"This unidentified material must have been attached to some stones in the water upstream," the Czech analysis said.
The crowd followed the reservoir all the way upstream.
When they reached a point, they found a corpse floating in front of them.
"Look, there's a man floating there!" shouted the second dwarf.
