Middle-Earth

It's nighttime,

The Moon tore through the cracks in the clouds, casting wisps of moonlight on the gray matter of the Middleland.

William, as the first infected person of the new moon, was given permission by Llorian to get a glimpse of the basic situation of the Midlands with the help of moonlight.

Basically consistent with the conjecture, the whole of the middle region has been deeply covered by the gray domain, and even the weakest area has reached at least the shallow and medium level.

Diversity disease outbreaks kill about 70% of species, and all individuals that survive are transformed into patients.

In the once prosperous human city, we can see the 'relatively unified' situation,

In some cities, where only one disease exists, such as the Absolute Dead City, which is struck by the Dead Plague, the "Dead Best Mist" is generally not compatible with any germ.

However, most of them are cross-contagious, especially in some coastal cities, where they are infected with deep-sea blight (Vibrio, barnacle parasites) and other diseases.

William even saw a small city controlled by the Black Cocktail Company, which continued to develop technology on the basis of preserving the original human ruins, the whole city was even cleaner than before, there were a large number of sanitation workers working on the streets, and various large logistics factories were already being built in the center of the city, and the railroad tracks left by the original humans were used for advanced logistics arrangements.

When the two worlds merge, most of these cities will be taken over by the source epidemic areas and major organizations in the old world.

However, it is not clear how some cross-infected cities will decentralize.

Everywhere the moonlight went, everything was in full view, and most of the infected cities had at most a few open-source patients, and there was no such thing as William.

Looking at such an infection scene, William even felt a little emotional, and some began to be grateful to the tannery.

"If it weren't for the Secluded Leather Mill to provide a completely free-range, even 'kinship' culture, Zion would not have been built and the organization would not have been able to grow.

It is simply impossible to develop 'cross-infected' talents like Zede, Rector, Garon, Asimov.

The gentlemen's skin, delivered from the tannery, has almost wiped out most of the effects of the disease, and is perfectly in tune with the human flesh, and guides the development of the individual step by step, and reasonably accepts the diseases of the Old World.

Judging from this incident alone, we really have to thank the tannery. ”

When William had emotion, he immediately received the yellow paper.

≮ There's no need to think so, William.

Your little place is just a "testing ground" for your human development that is deliberately suited to your human development, pretending to respect your autonomy, and once the world is infected, the tanneries will use their clothes to enslave them all, or force you to sign a deed of sale.

The previous invasion of the blood people can see that the tannery can sell you in minutes. ≯

"Hmm."

William didn't respond much, he naturally knew about the prejudice of the yellow skin against the tannery. When all this really went to the inside of the tannery, William would naturally consider the problem.

While the two were communicating, the moon, which was moving at a constant speed, suddenly slowed down and stopped.

"Lorian, what's going on?"

"William, were you just communicating with Mr. Yi? I don't even know what's going on, so let's take a look at the situation below, right? ”

The Moon is currently located in a mountainous area,

The moonlight that could be cast could not break through the dense fog that filled the mountains, and in addition to the gray matter, which represented the epidemic, there were other things that could block the moonlight in the dense fog.

William looked around the mountains again,

You will find that many rivers converge here, and there are even several man-made roads leading to it.

And, most importantly, there are not many 'sick humans' on rivers and roads, but they seem to have a purpose in their journey to this strange mountain.

"Can it block your moonlight, Lorian, didn't you notice it when you came a few years ago?"

"As I have already said, my main focus at that time was on finding the way, and I didn't carefully explore the Middle Domain, let alone carefully observe every piece of land as I do now.

Alternatively, I can turn up the power of the moon to force a glimpse inside. ”

"Don't ...... If something is really in there, it's not good to startle the snake.

It can naturally attract patients from all over the world, and most of them are elite, and they have reached the open source level. Explain that there must be something special about this mountain, and if we can, we might be able to open a theater in it.

Leave the moon in the sky, shall we go down and take a look? ”

"Yes."

Lorian's heart is actually very curious, this kind of area that can block the moonlight is either controlled by the path finisher, or it is specially colonized by a certain source plague area in the old world.

In front of him, it may even seem that there may be some secrets hidden in it that he doesn't know.

"If only the principal were here, she might be able to directly divinate the situation inside~ My intuition tells me that this mountain is not simple.

Llorian, let's not go down directly, let's use the surrounding city as the entrance to investigate. ”

"Aren't you in a hurry for your theater performances? How do you have time to play here? ”

"Anyway, the long-term cooperation between the two of us has been reached, and I just need to hand in enough fear essence in two months.

It took us a maximum of 1~2 days to start the investigation in the surrounding cities, so we could not only experience the disease culture of the Middle Regions, but also hone our acting skills.

We're trying to investigate this as much as we can as 'exiles', and we might find something interesting. ”

"William, are you afraid that my acting skills will not be up to par, so you deliberately use this kind of thing to evaluate me first?"

"The performance of the two of us naturally needs to be run-in, since it will take time, it is better to do it here in advance......"

William's gaze followed the road around the mountains into the distance, and soon caught a comprehensive town that was not too far away,

It's full of different types of infected people, and it's equivalent to a neutral city in the old world.

Rather than a small town, it is more like a transit point connecting the mysterious mountains, and patients who come from afar will choose to rest in this town, which will naturally bring a lot of 'business'.

William: As outsiders, they can easily blend in.

"Let's use this town as a starting point, do you want to call someone along with Llorian, like Dr. Fana."

"No, the Crimson has just been built, and she can help me keep an eye on the moon if she stays here, after all, there are still many disobedient things that are locked up in the [Chaos Building]."

"Okay, then I'll ask Miss Jessica if she's going."

……

【Welcome to Rakavik Town】

Huge, diseased billboards with diseased vegetation stood on the side of the road, apparently standing here before the world was infected.

However, the local patients chose to keep it and make changes to the billboard.

The fields and cows on the original billboard were erased and replaced with a text that smeared with a foul-smelling green fluorescent liquid.

≮The town offers accommodation, food, and a guide to the trip to Ill Mountain

Among them, letters about sick mountains are emphatically painted, and even several green patterns resembling mountain peaks are painted.

Four young people are standing under a billboard,

"It seems that what the moonlight can't transmit is the so-called [Sick Mountain], and the nearest town has really started a related business, let's go.

Suppress the aura of the epidemic in your body, maintain it in the "early stage of open source", and don't expose it. Think of it as a mock show. ”

"Yes Boss!"

Nash in the crowd was the most excited, making it his first collaboration with William. He still looked like a loose eye, wearing a white shirt and beach pants that didn't fit well, and he was barefoot on the ground.

In addition, Jessica, a dentist, also followed, with the same image, white hair and a mask, a turtleneck and boots.

Lorian deliberately made a great change in image,

He wears a psychiatric suit that binds his hands, has silver hair and drooping ears, and his eyes are closed, like a blind psychopath.

William, on the other hand, looked like a scholar, with a pocket watch around his waist, a white shirt, a gray waistcoat, a black suit, and a more Sven rimless eye, walking at the front of the line.
