Storm Martha fell at noon on the eighty-first day.

The reconnaissance unit that had set off a month ago had finally returned, but contrary to the predicted situation, only one person had returned this time.

And this person is not the commander of the reconnaissance unit, the handsome blood elf with long ears, nor the deputy sent by the demon clan and humans to this blood elf senior brother, nor even any guy in the entire army who can be named.

He was a supernumerary.

He followed the reconnaissance unit after the departure of the members of the search force. Because the search force did not have a planned high-intensity operation, they used second-line personnel, and because humans and demons have obvious advantages in this regard, the search troops were basically members of humans and demons, and the elves only sent some wood elf scouts to cooperate.

The task of the search force was to first search the area south of the Wannsee Valley in order to find out the quiet situation in the area, and at the same time to concentrate all the displaced settlements living in the vicinity.

In the past, the people of Kinnu chose to ignore these outcasts because they thought they were useless and of no value, just like the grade of waste in Poland Street.

But now the situation is different. On the one hand, Tang Dou's appearance proved that these people still had their great usefulness, and on the other hand, in the face of such a special enemy as the evil spirit battle spirit, leaving these homeless people outside was tantamount to adding enemies to himself.

If Tang Dou had encountered such a thing before he appeared, maybe Genunu City would have made a completely iron-blooded and ruthless decision, which was to massacre these displaced people on a large scale. But now that Tang Dou has come, they have chosen a relatively gentle way. That is to gather these displaced people. In the end, they will either be sent to the construction site to work, and those who are lucky can join the workshop directly. Either the forces of the various sects absorbed a part of it - there is a rune array for opening up the wasteland. The demand for these ineffective labor forces is in a linear state.

At least until Martha's storm is over, these ordinary people don't have to worry about running out of jobs to do. There are no benefits to create.

Because of this policy, in the past month, the workshop has absorbed hundreds of displaced people, and more people have joined the construction site, and now the first phase of the project has entered the middle and late stages, and the second and third phases of the project have also been fully started.

Not to mention the special times such as the arrival of Martha's storm, even in the past, as long as they can give these homeless people enough food, they will work hard. Anyway, the work is not complicated, it is nothing more than exertion, except for those who really can't work, who would mind paying a little labor to get enough food in the Fog Hidden Continent?

The existence of the workshop has allowed these displaced people to find a hope, a hope that they can become normal people in the future. Look at the self-proclaimed Workshopmen, who, a few months ago, were just as bad as any homeless, if not worse, but now they're holding their heads up, and they're now. In the future, I will always bow to one person again, they are not slaves, they are not wastes waiting to die. They are the Workshop People, the men of Lord Nicholas, the ones who are protected by the Platinum Strong.

The Workshop People have become the best yearning for those homeless.

For a month. With the Wannsee Valley as the line, all those in the area south of it who had received news of the search force came to the city of Kinunu. Either join the workshop or join the construction site. Waiting for the opportunity to join the workshop in the future.

Regardless of whether Tang Dou has any new operations now, no matter whether he gets any other benefits, for Tang Dou himself, his biggest gain has already been in his pocket.

Whether it is a workshop, a construction site, or even countless civilians in the city, they are all singing praises to the "generous Lord Nicholas", and under the secret that outsiders do not know, Tang Dou has collected a large amount of "goodness" in the past month. At this rate, in another two months, you will be able to balance the "evil" that Qi Qi absorbed before, and then you will no longer have to worry about becoming a murderer or a stupid saint who sheds blood and tears.

No one understood what Tang Dou's more and more saint-like style wanted to do, if it was to win people's hearts, even if it was to win the hearts of all ordinary people, what could it be?

However, the current situation is naturally satisfactory to all parties. The major forces received actual benefits, while Tang Dou received a large number of "goodness" from civilians, and everyone received benefits.

And at this time when it seemed to be ready to enter the song and dance, prosperity, and great development of people's livelihood, discordant notes finally appeared.

A person who should theoretically have been killed when the search unit went out on a mission once again appeared alive in front of everyone, but what he brought back was the news of the reconnaissance unit that had been tugging at everyone's heartstrings.

"Dead, dead, everybody's dead, Lord Kane asked me to come back and report the news, everybody's dead, they're coming, they're coming!" Kane is the handsome blood elf guy who leads the team, the golden sixth level, Vera's right and left hand. Good at tracking, long-distance running, and has led teams deep into the inland depths of the Fog Hidden Continent many times to carry out missions.

And now, when the one-month return date came, he and his team did not return alone, but a guy who had theoretically died a long time ago, and the news that this guy brought was ......

Everybody's dead!

And also......

They're coming!

This person named Numbu Flat is a second-tier member of the Badaomen, he has always been low-key, and there is nothing conspicuous, and his performance in the Badaomen is decent, and this time he was selected to become a search force Less than five days after he set off, he was killed in an accident.

Because he was directly involved in a subsidence incident, he and the other three members of the search force at that time could not even recover the body.

Just a month later, he reappeared.

When Lao Dao, the master of the Badao Sect, came in person and asked him about the specific situation of this disciple, Numumumhimin Taira had completely lost his mind and would only repeat one sentence over and over again......

They're coming.

No one knows who this "they" are referring to, whether it is a reconnaissance unit that has not disappeared, or an enemy controlled by the evil spirit, or something else.

The city of Kinunu is famous. It's still not a well-known doctor, and all the pharmacists have been invited. Numabuchi was consulted, but the final conclusion surprised everyone.

As far as the body itself is concerned. Numebuchihei didn't suffer any damage, and physiologically, there was no one who could make him so deviant.

The last few masters who were good at soul control also came out in person, but in the end, the conclusion was the same. There is nothing wrong with Numebuchi's soul.

Then there are only two explanations.

One is that the enemy's methods are so clever that the entire city of Kinunu cannot find the fault. The other one is that Numabuchi is pretending!

The old knife obviously didn't want to believe that his disciples would pretend to be crazy and stupid, but in order to show fairness, he still personally went into battle to interrogate Numabuchi, but the result was even more unexpected, just put the torture instrument on, Numabuchidaira died.

He was not punished to death. Because the torture instrument had just had time to be placed on Numabuchi's body, everything had not yet begun.

It's not scared to death, because Numebuchi died silently, one second he was still chattering, the next second, the sound stopped, his breathing stopped, everything was smooth as if he was asleep.

Finally, at Tang Dou's suggestion, a group of doctors performed an autopsy on Numa Yuanping.

And then until three days later. There are also some healers who are having nightmares.

Numabuchi's body was already diseased, and it was not the flesh and blood of normal people, but a mass of twisted and twitching corpse worms - a kind of insect that specialized in devouring corpses. The demon clan of Kinunu City even raised some specially for disposing of all kinds of corpses that should not leave traces.

The focus of suspicion naturally focused on the demon clan's side at once. Grinas himself stepped in. Led the entire high-level of the Demon Chieftain Council to conduct an investigation, and the result was that there was no result.

The demon clan does raise corpse insects, but those are normal corpse insects. It's not the same species at all from the corpse worm that can react with soul power in Numebuchi's body. This special corpse is not even an ordinary bug, but a kind of demon beast. Even if these corpse insects are still to the point where ordinary people can pinch them to death with their hands. But with the soul power reaction, it is still a kind of demon beast.

And more importantly. The characteristics of this corpse worm.

First of all, when Numbuchidaira was physically examined before, none of the healers found that Numumbuchidaira had corpse worms in his body. You must know that among these healers, there are also healers like Sha Yunyue and Hyperion, with their medical skills, not to mention insects, even if there are eggs in the body, they can be found.

Secondly, it takes at least two days for a normal corpse worm to hatch from the eggs, and it is absolutely impossible for a living person to endure the pain of even a corpse worm burrowing in the body, and before Numumbuchi died, he was doing everything as usual, except for some divine chatter, like a mad patient, there was no pain at all.

If you extrapolate backwards from this, it means that before Numabuchi died, he only had insect eggs in his body at most. But he underwent an autopsy less than half a day after his death, in this case, how could it be completely occupied by corpse worms in his body?

How many corpse insects are in Numbuchi's body? This question may be clearer in another way, that is, how many of Numbuchi's body have not been eaten and killed by corpse insects?

The answer is that except for the outer layer of skin, all the bones, flesh, and internal organs in the body, everything has been eaten by the corpses.

The moment the healer cut open the chest and abdomen of Numabuchi, the black corpse worm like a fountain sprayed directly into the face of one of the healers, who was still unconscious.

What's going on?

For a moment, everyone was in a state of bewilderment.

"Little one, you're the weirdest of us, what do you think about that?" Impatiens changed her charming appearance from the past, and the strange situation made her unable to keep her composure.

At this moment, once again, the high-level leaders of all parties gathered in the living room of the workshop, and when they heard Impatiens Flower Ji's inquiry, everyone's eyes were focused on Tang Dou.

As a conspiracy theorist, Tang Dou does have a lot of opinions, but obviously not every one of them can see the light, and after a little consideration, he spoke: "In my opinion, there are three possibilities!"

"First, we encountered a very special kind of corpse worm, which can quickly develop from eggs and gather in swarms half a day after death. However, there is a problem with this, that is, why no one has found eggs after so many previous examinations. I have every reason to believe that it wasn't our healer who wasn't careful!"

"Second, in fact, there have been corpse insects in Numbuchihei's body for a long time, but these corpse insects are very special, they will not directly eat his body when Numbubuchi is still alive, and they will also secrete a large amount of paralyzing hormone, so that Numbuchihei does not have any sense of pain. But this is the same as the first point, and even more incomprehensible, which is why our healers have not found out. If the eggs are too small, they have special characteristics, and there is an explanation for being hidden, but if they are live insects, I really can't imagine that so many healers can see them!"

"Third ......" Speaking of this, Tang Dou hesitated, it seemed that he also felt that this idea was too weird, but anyway, the weirdness was already in front of him, and it was not a big deal to be weird: "The third is that from the very beginning, the Nuan Yuanping we saw was a living dead!"

"It's even more unlikely. There are so many of us that we can't even tell the difference between a living person and a dead person!" the old knife was the first to jump out and object.

He wasn't targeting Tang Dou, but Numebuchi was his person, so he was the most sensitive in this matter.

Tang Dou waved his hand, so that the old knife Shao'an was not impatient, and then continued to explain: "I made an assumption. Then that white-faced guy's evil spirit has its own particularity, and one of the biggest characteristics of this particularity is displayed in the living dead under its control!"

"I think everyone still remembers that there were two kinds of enemies that Sister Fengxian and I encountered at that time, one was the real living dead, and the other was the crazy living! Those living dead don't count, but those living people are quite strange, that is, although they are sensible, they are quite crazy. It feels like the state after the three views have been completely distorted!"

"So, let's imagine, if this phenomenon is controllable by that white-faced guy, then why can't he make a person in the same state as Numabuchihei? Or if I put it another way, what reason do we have not to suspect that there is no such special corpse worm in the living human body that has been transformed into a madman and has become a madman?"

"You know, at that time, we burned all the corpses of our enemies for fear of contamination, and I really don't know what was in their bodies. It's true that I can't come up with evidence that they have corpse worms in them, but conversely, none of us can prove that they don't have corpse worms in them, can we?"

Everyone's faces changed in unison, and through Tang Dou's words, they had already thought of a possibility.

If everything is really as Tang Dou said, then what is the purpose of Numumbuchi's appearance here? )
