Rhaegar swooped down into the forest, startling a crowd of birds.

Leon ordered Rhaegar to hover in the sky, ready for support, and then walked with Lorgar to his goal, following the instructions in his mind.

Ahead was presumably a small town, with rudimentary wooden walls, but unguarded on top.

As they walked down the path and were about to enter the town, Leon's brow furrowed suddenly, and then led Lorgar to the grass beside the road.

"What's wrong?"

"It smells of corpses. ”

The grass is so high that it can submerge most of the legs.

The further I went, the more I could smell the rotten smell in the air.

There was still a faint sound of running water in their ears, and soon they saw a corpse lying on its back in the grass by a small river.

As they approached, a group of shiny-furred, fat-bodied rats emerged from the carcasse's bulging abdomen and fled.

Luo Jia said: "It is the corpse seen in the divination. ”

He didn't show any discomfort, and the undead lost their sense of taste and smell and would not vomit at the visibly disgusting corpse.

Leon frowned,

It was a middle-aged Germanic man with one eye removed, and the other pale blue was filled with fear and despair.

Under his skin, there were many bulges, and when Leon pressed it, a series of squeaks suddenly appeared, and rats came out of it, grinning at Leon.

"Frozen!"

The cold air swept by, and suddenly this rat that was not afraid of people was frozen into a sculpture.

Li Ang frowned and said, "How did he die? Is it the cause of death or was he gnawed by a beast like a mouse?"

Luo Jia shook his head: "I don't know, divination is not omnipotent, let's go to the town to have a look." ”

...

The scene in the town was worse than the town where the Black Death was spreading, and there were corpses of those terrible deaths everywhere.

Along the way, no living people were seen at all.

Suddenly, there was a frightened shout from ahead, and the two of them immediately accelerated and rushed over.

Then, I saw a young woman holding her stomach push the door out of the room and run wildly through the street.

When she saw Leon and Loga, she shouted loudly in Latin.

However, due to his extremely strong accent and the speed of his speech, Leon could only distinguish two obvious words, namely "water" and "devil".

Leon shouted: "Calm down, we are demon hunters, let's make the situation clear first, with us, the demon will not hurt you!"

However, as soon as the words fell, a look of despair appeared on the woman's face.

Tears trickled down her eyes, and she shook her head and shouted, "It's too late, it's too late!"

Then I just heard a bang!

A mist of blood erupted in her abdomen, and bulging intestines and organs quickly gushed out.

And her expression was frozen in this moment.

A hint of anger crossed Leon's eyes, and he stepped forward quickly, scrutinizing the corpse carefully.

Lorga took out the sacrificial knife and carefully slice open her exposed intestines.

However, it turned out to be nothing.

It was an ordinary corpse, with no obvious parasites in the intestines, only food scraps and excrement.

Luo Jia wondered, "How did it explode?"

"Obviously, there is a faint smell of sulfur in the air, and this is the work of the devil, who is killing people in front of us. ”

"Maybe it's a provocative tactic. ”

Leon asked, "What does the water devil mean?"

Luo Jia scratched her head in embarrassment: "Are you talking about what she said before she died? I didn't understand a word, is there a demon like the water devil?"

Li Ang shook his head: "There are many demons related to water, but I have never heard of one that can kill people so strangely. ”

He stood up and said loudly, "Are there any living people?"

The town was quiet, as if everyone was really dead.

They searched the town, shouting as they went, hoping someone would give them an answer, but it was silent throughout.

They came to the cemetery outside the town church.

Many graves were dug here, but there were no bodies buried in them.

The church door was closed, and Leon tentatively shouted, "Is there anyone there?"

It wasn't long before he saw a head poking out of the window, looked at them for a moment, and then quickly shrank back again.

Leon said loudly: "I saw you, come out quickly!"

"Who are you?"

There was an old voice in response from inside the church, in pure Latin.

Leon said loudly, "We are demon hunters, and we are here to deal with the devils here. ”

The closed door of the church was quickly pushed open a gap, and the head poked out again, looking the two men up and down before opening the door.

"Come on, I'm Father John, the parish priest here, and you're finally here. ”

It was only when the two entered the church that they finally saw the full appearance of the old man who claimed to be a priest, dressed in rusty chain mail and with a long sword at his waist.

The thief has eyebrows and rat eyes, and is always vigilant against the wind and grass around him.

"What's going on here?"

Li Ang got straight to the point and said: "Just now we saw a woman suddenly pushing open the door and shouting on the street, still shouting about water devils or something. ”

Father John's face suddenly turned gray: "It's Lady Terley, she must have died of her intestines, right?"

"How do you know?"

Father John sighed: "Since half a month ago, people in the town suddenly began to rush out of the door and shout as if they were going crazy. ”

Subsequently, he died of a rotten bowel in his stomach. ”

"This is not an isolated case, in fact, the vast majority of people in the entire town have died because of it. ”

Leon frowned and asked, "What is the Water Devil?"

"I don't know what it is, but every deceased would say it in the last period of their lives, but they didn't say it to the water devils, but 'give me water, there is a devil's flame that burns my internal organs, and only water can extinguish them'. ”

The words are much the same, but they basically mean the same thing. ”

Leon looked at Lorgar with a puzzled look.

Luo Jia comprehended, and said a little embarrassed: "I'm sure that there are no traces of burns in the body of the deceased just now. ”

The priest was taken aback, because the voice of this white-looking and handsome boy was so ugly that it was like two saw blades rubbing against each other.

Li Ang frowned and said, "Hurry up and tell the clues, now is not the time to laugh at my friend's voice, the sooner you get rid of the demon, you can save one more person's life." ”

Father John hurriedly said: "This is the thing, from that day on, every day there were deaths, and I closed the church and hid in it and did not go out. ”

As he spoke, he drew a cross in front of him: "Thank God, until now, I have not died, it is God who protects me." ”

Leon was a little impatient and said, "Wouldn't you die if you hide in the church?"

John was distressed: "I don't know why, even if the rest of the people hide in the church, they will still die in their stomachs, and only I, a servant of God, will be spared." ”

Leon looked at Luo Jia: "There must be some other reason. ”

Luo Jia nodded, plucked up the courage to ask, "Is there anything different about you from the residents of other small towns?"

John looked blank and said, "No." ”

Something suddenly occurred to him, and he exclaimed: "Get out of the church, this is not a place for you heretics to stay, and it would be terrible if you angered God so that he would no longer take refuge in me." ”

Keng——

The blade of the sword came out of its sheath and pressed against Father John's neck.

Leon's voice was like winter ice, and his eyes turned into dragon-like vertical pupils in an instant: "You can see if I want to kill you, and God will protect you." ”

Father John shuddered, waved his hand, and said: "Do not use your sword or spear in the holy place, for you will anger God and cause him to punish you." ”

Li Ang couldn't bear it: "If you tell me another nonsense, I'll cut off your head immediately!"

Father John shrunk his neck and muttered, "But that's all I know, what difference can I make from the people in the town? ”
