For more than an hour, there were more than a few people who had mutated, and even excluding those who trampled on each other and the fools who injured themselves, there were at least sixty or seventy people who were really injured in the hands of monsters, although they were of varying severity, but at least they all saw blood.

At this time, the news slowly spread, whether it was the empty field on the mountain, or the scattered crowd under the mountain, quickly fell into chaos, everyone was looking at the injured around them with a defensive eye, lest he would be the next to mutate into a monster, and all the injured people, regardless of the severity of the injury, tried their best to hide the fact that they were injured, unless it was the closest person in the family, otherwise, even if it was a friend or friend, they would not reveal a little bit, for fear of being driven out of the crowd and not being protected by the security team and the garrison group.

In the chaos up and down the mountain, there are not a few cases that are really caused by polluted mutants, most of them are caused by conflicts between injured people and healthy people, and some are just scratches or falls themselves, and they are feared and rejected by the people around them, and there are even fights for this, which makes the already chaotic situation even more out of control.

The fires were shining, the smoke was billowing and the wails were everywhere, and the calm and peaceful town was replaced by a scene like the end of the world in the blink of an eye.

"No way, I repeat, the Illusory World Pollution can never be contagious in this way, and it is impossible to be so contagious." On the high platform, several main leaders of Thor Town plus some combatants were discussing countermeasures, Monica pounded the table with her fists, and said loudly with a stiff face, "There is definitely a problem in the following situation, we must first figure out the problem, and then it makes sense to consider countermeasures, and now we haven't even figured out how to contag it, so we want to separate the injured people from each other?" Do you think the current panic is not serious enough and want to add another fire? ”

"Isn't it clear enough, it's obvious that it will mutate after being injured by a monster, and when will it be determined to be isolated?"

"Yes, even if it's really not contagious like this, it doesn't hurt to find out who has been injured first."

"Monica, you can't just say it's impossible, now the situation is here, you say it's not contagion, there must be a basis, you have experience, we don't, how do we know if what you said is right."

Monica only felt that her ears were buzzing, as if there were countless insects flying, and every mouth was opening and closing, so noisy that she couldn't concentrate on thinking at all. Just when she was arguing, she suddenly heard a light voice in her ears, the tone was not high, but it seemed to be full of confidence: "According to my observation, there is indeed a problem, you calculate the mutation time." ”

"That's right, mutation time." Awakened by a sentence, Monica secretly raised an eyebrow at Babu, and when she turned around, her face had already regained her full complexion, "Use your rusty brains and calculate the mutation time." If they really mutate because of infection, then there should be a pattern in their mutation time, and individual differences will have an impact, but the overall time will not vary much. But what about the reality now? Look at it, there are those who have mutated after twelve seconds of injury, and there are those who have not mutated until now......"

"By the way, there are still mutations that are not injured at all, don't forget the original batch, except for the foreign caravans, there are also a few of our locals, and they are not injured." Monica slapped the table, and the volume was raised, "To be based?" This is the basis, there is no clear time pattern, which means that it is by no means a normal infectious variant, more like ...... It's more like ......"

Monica couldn't go on, because she was thinking about it and talking about it, and she was first startled by the conclusion that she suddenly came up with.

"Captain Monica, Captain Monica." Gauss of the garrison couldn't help but urge, "It's more like something, everyone wants to know." ”

"It's more like a random choice." Monica bit her lip and said her conclusion, "Or, it's just someone who chooses a random target behind their backs." ”

As she spoke, she turned her gaze to Babu beside her, the two had discussed more than once before whether the Illusory World Pollution or the Edge Monster would have their own will, Monica always preferred not to, even if she saw Roshan who would escape and defend in danger, she was still looking for reasons for the anomaly, but in the face of the bloody reality in the town, even she herself deduced this conclusion that was enough to subvert the common sense she had summed up for many years.

"This, this, this, I've never heard of such a thing." Several of the older town elders stammered, "Is it really possible?" ”

"Yes." Holding Anna in his arms, Babu suddenly spoke, "Just now, we encountered a giant monster on the edge, and it is likely that it has a self-will. ”

"That's true." This is the most appropriate thing for Babu to say, and Monica naturally agreed, "I was a little skeptical that the monster was just a hallucination, and I argued with Babu a few times about it, but now it seems that Babu is right." Moreover, we had just dealt a heavy blow to the monster, and such a catastrophe had happened in the town, it seemed that it had been prepared for a long time, and now revenge has come. ”

"Captain Monica, although I don't know much about the knowledge of the edge, but ......" Gauss hesitated for a moment, but still asked bluntly, "The monster you are talking about is a monster that exists on the edge, and this is the present world, and the energy of the illusory world cannot continue to exist in the present world, this is an iron law." Even if it has started to oscillate on the edge now, it can't stretch its hand so long that it can directly interfere with the current world from the edge and control the people in the current world to mutate into monsters. ”

"Of course you can't do it normally, but ......" Monica smiled bitterly, and so did Babu, and the two finally figured it out.

Why were the wounded in the caravan so heavily contaminated, as if they were immersed in a source of high concentration?

Why did the people of the caravan not find out what was strange and did not show anything unusual.

Why did the Roshan in the edge change so much, reduce in size so much, and completely turn to a defensive state.

Why did the illusory world pollution appear for no reason this time, and the phantom beast was born out of thin air.

Why can the other side cross the boundary between the present world and the periphery, and directly interfere with what is happening in the present world?

The answer is already on the horizon, because it has already permeated the present world.

The concentration of pollution is high because it is Roshan itself that is attacking her, and no one will think that the Illusory World Pollution will disguise and hide itself, so the caravan will naturally not notice anything unusual, and they are open in their hearts, and it will be difficult for others to be suspicious. A part of the will and power lurked in the victim's body into the present world, the body consumption is extremely large, and the size must shrink with it, and after doing so, it can naturally use the victim as a springboard to infect other creatures that have been in contact, and with a trick at the level of Roshan, it is not impossible to artificially select the pollution target for air pollution.

Thinking of this, Monica sighed and said to the others: "If this is the case, then the so-called contagion does not exist at all, and the current performance is just a ruse by that Roshan to dismantle us from within." It must be admitted that it has been very successful, and we ourselves are already in chaos, and if we forcibly separate the healthy and the injured, I am afraid that it will not need to do anything else, and our own people will riot first. ”

"But......" the mayor and elders could not refute it, so they could only stammer, "we can't do nothing, just wait for it to slowly spread, and what you say is only an inference, maybe it is indeed true, but what if the guess is wrong." ”

"If it really chooses the target to be infected in the air, because of the conservation of energy, it will definitely produce a lot of consumption on its own. Since it wants to do so at the expense of itself, it must have the purpose it wants to achieve. But we don't need to think about what its purpose is, it's too complicated, and we have a more direct solution. Monica sneered, the smile on the corner of her mouth was cold, and her eyes were full of anger, "Find it, then kill it, at least let it go back from where it came from." Then we'll take the opportunity to return to the edge and storm its nest to solve the problem once and for all. ”

"So ......," Monica suddenly approached the mayor, leaned over to stare into his eyes, gritted her teeth and asked, "The seventh man in the caravan, where the hell is it?" ”

"Originally, it was originally placed in the ward of the security team." Intimidated by Monica's oppressive force, the mayor couldn't help but take two steps back, and said embarrassedly, "But someone reported that the patient is gone, and no one can say where it is now, wait for me to ask the townspeople." ”

Monica nodded, sparing the mayor, and turned back to Gauss, "Gauss, this is the present world. ”

"I understand." Gauss took off his sword and shield and stood straight, "We don't need to worry about mutation due to mental pollution, so I'll tell those boys to let them go and fight that monster to the death." ”

With that, Gauss walked down the high platform in a few steps and began to gather his garrison soldiers, while Monica sighed, looked down at the chaotic town below, and asked in a low voice: "It seems that you are right, that Roshan is really a monster with only sanity, I was too careless before, and I was bound by common sense and experience, ignoring this possibility." ”

"I'm wondering if the other anomaly I found is that the two energy sources at the node are also related to this matter." Babu finally shook his head as he spoke, "But now is not the time to think about this, no matter what, the biggest threat in front of us is the right way to go." ”

"Huh?" Monica heard something and followed Babu's gaze, "You found it?" ”

"yes, I think, I've seen it."

Babu narrowed his eyes, and the two daggers had subconsciously slid into his palms. In his eyes, he saw again the shadow of the caravan he had seen when he first saw it yesterday.

The darkness that floated in the sky, the clouds that shrouded the world, and the thousands of shadow arms stretched out below, and the shadows of large droplets dripped downward. Just looking at it was enough to drive people into madness, like a picture of hell, reappeared before Báb's eyes.

I see you.
