Chapter 32: Zombie Disease

"Zombie disease?" After listening to the old woman's words, Liao Ao, Lucy and Jane exclaimed at the same time, and Lianhua looked at the old woman in surprise although she did not exclaim.

"What is a zombie disease?" asked Liao and Lucy in unison.

"Zombie disease is a terrible infectious disease! When this disease occurs, it will be like a zombie, the limbs are stiff and very aggressive, and it will instinctively look around for targets to attack, and anyone or animal who is bitten or scratched by this kind of disease will be infected, and the infected person will become ill after a few hours. More than 100 years ago, this disease broke out in the northernmost part of the Eastern Continent, and in just one month, no one was spared from the three large cities and dozens of villages and towns in the north, and in the end, the Empire could only send the Knights of the Holy Cross and dozens of high-ranking priests of the Church, but even this cost a terrible price to quell the matter. Afterwards, the empire also sent someone to investigate the matter, but the cause of the disease could not be found out, and in the end it had to be stopped!" Without waiting for the old woman to speak, Jane spoke slowly.

"And it's almost impossible to be cured!" and when Jane finished speaking, Lianhua interjected on the side.

"These two little brothers actually know!!" After listening to Jane's description and Lianhua's addition, the old woman was also a little surprised. After all, it happened so long ago, and people of the older generation may not remember it so clearly.

"I also saw it in Master's notes, and there is a detailed record of this in my Master's notes. Jane replied casually.

And Lianhua didn't mean to explain.

"This disease is terrible!" After listening to the description of the "zombie disease", Liao felt his goosebumps rise.

"Old woman, what is going on? Does it have anything to do with this disease?" Lucy also had goosebumps, and her body trembled a little in the night wind, and she didn't know how to lean in the direction where Lianhua was sitting.

The latter looked at Lucy, who was trembling beside him, took off the black cloak from his body, and draped it over Lucy's body.

"Yes, old woman, what the hell is going on?" asked Li Ao with an eager expression.

Although Jian and Lianhua didn't ask questions, their eyes were fixed on the old woman, and their expressions were extremely serious.

"Hey~" The old woman sighed heavily, shook her head and said word by word, "The zombie disease is here again, in Kasro City!"

The old woman's words startled the four of them at the same time, although they had had similar speculations before, but now the facts were much more serious than the speculations.

For a while, all four fell silent.

Liao raised his head and looked at Lucy, and found that Lucy's eyes were a little dull, and then looked at Lianhua, who was looking at him, looking at each other, and the two of them were silently thinking about what to do next.

"Old woman, can you tell me more about it, and how did you escape?" After a long time, Jane broke the silence and looked at the old woman and asked seriously.

The old woman's eyes looked straight at the bonfire, looked at the constantly beating flames, and slowly opened her mouth, "We people live on the outskirts of Kasro City, and we rarely enter the city, but my two sons are all soldiers of the City Lord's Mansion, and when they came back from vacation a month ago, they told me that there was a suspected zombie attack in the city, and at that time we regarded it as an after-dinner conversation, and we didn't think about zombie disease. But since then, such incidents have been happening, and the frequency has become faster and faster, and more and more people have been attacked, and the old people have begun to rumor that it is a zombie disease, and this rumor has spread throughout the city of Kasro. Until half a month ago, the city lord couldn't resist the pressure and ordered the men to stay in Kasro City, and all the women, children and children were evacuated. And so here we are!"

"And your two sons are still in Kasro?" asked Lucy after listening to the old woman's account.

"Yes, my 2 sons are in Kasro City!" said the old woman who was obviously a little excited at the mention of her son, then took a deep breath, looked around, and looked at the people sitting around the campfire and continued, "Their husbands, sons, and fathers are also in Kasro City!"

Listening to the old woman's words, Lucy's originally frightened expression disappeared and turned into worry. "What do you think, Lianhua?"

Lucy's question was also what Liao and Jane wanted to ask, which would focus their eyes on Lianhua.

Lianhua ignored them, but burned the freshly prepared dinner rack on the bonfire, and with the help of the bonfire, the wild mushroom scalding and toasting bread exuded bursts of fragrance, seducing everyone's taste buds and stomachs. "Eat first!"

The refugees around her had not eaten, and looking at the children, Lucy was so generous that she had divided most of the cooked food, and the old woman had already left while they were dividing the food.

After dinner, the four of them sat around the bonfire, and Li Ao took the lead in speaking, "Hua, there are no outsiders now, what do you think of what the old woman said?" He knew that Lianhua was talking about eating just now, and he was opening up the topic.

"Jane, you speak first!" Lianhua didn't answer, but turned her head to look at Jane.

"Let's talk about this zombie disease first, and then talk about my thoughts!" Jane didn't refuse, "I didn't say a little bit just now, and now I won't hide it from you, my master was one of the people sent by the empire to investigate 100 years ago, and he also discovered the cause of the zombie disease." It's just that this reason is so terrifying, so Master didn't tell anyone, but wrote it down in my notes. Jane paused, took a deep breath, and adjusted her mind and tone.

Surprisingly, Liao and Lucy didn't interject at this time, and everyone focused on Jane.

"My master has come to the conclusion," Jane paused again, and then said in a trembling tone, "the zombie disease is man-made, an experiment on the human body by a necromancer in order to study the forbidden art of the human body!

"What!" As soon as Jane finished speaking, Liao and Lucy exclaimed at the same time. Lucy was even more surprised and covered her mouth, this is terrible!

Jane was not surprised at all by Liao and Lucy's reaction, because he also reacted this way when he knew about it, but Lianhua didn't have the slightest look of surprise, which can only explain one thing, "It seems that Lianhua you know about this!"

"Well, I know. Lianhua didn't hide it.

"It's just that this incident in Kasro City is a little weird!" After receiving Lianhua's reply, Jane nodded with satisfaction and continued, "Just now the old woman said that there was just a suspected zombie attack on people, and then people began to rumor that it was a zombie disease, and they had not seen a zombie attack or the infection of zombie disease with their own eyes. ”

"Could it be that there is no zombie disease at all, but that someone wants to use this disease to do something unsightly. Liao quickly recovered from his surprise and spoke his instincts.

"Well, I always feel like a smack. For what Liao said, Jane felt the same way in her heart.

"But it can't be ruled out that there is a real outbreak of zombie disease?" Lucy asked with a pale face.

"This?" Jane and Ryan didn't know how to answer Lucy's question for a while.

"Time!" Lianhua had already said the key.

"Time?" Lucy didn't understand.

"Yes, time, the zombie disease that broke out 100 years ago has spread to 3 big cities and dozens of villages and towns in just one month, and no one has been spared, and this incident has happened for 1 month, but this small village closest to Kasro City is still safe! Yes, this is the key to the problem!" After Lianhua's reminder, Jane finally figured it out.

"There is another possibility!" Hearing Jane's words, Lianhua actually retorted.

Isn't it all explained that "!!" has already been explained, how can there be a possibility? Liao and Lucy were a little puzzled.
