Chapter 157: Two-Party Action
After Zhao Nan went back that day, he wanted to contact Gu Ming, but after the private chat message was sent, he didn't respond, probably because he was in a state of battle and didn't have time to deal with it.
The next day, Zhao Nan was still worried about the cause of Kong Wu's death and the iceberg that suddenly appeared on the wetland. At this moment, Loki rushed in from the outside, still flustered.
"What's wrong?, you look like you're being bullied?" Zhao Nan teased as he took Potsenia over for breakfast.
"Oh no, the next village...... The people from the next village ......."
Before Loki finished speaking, Zhao Nan had already asked nervously: "What's the matter, isn't today the day of the competition?
Poznia was nervous on the side, too.
"It's not. Loki gasped for breath before he said, "Those people from the next village...... All dead. ”
"What?"
......
Half an hour later.
It was as if it had been ravaged by an ice storm, as far as the eye could see, there were frozen houses and land that had been eroded by frost, where the ice passed, the grass and trees were devastated, and it was like frost, if Zhao Nan hadn't come from Konoha Village in person, he would have thought that he had gone to the orc territory in the north.
"Is this really the village called 'King Gaolun'?" Zhao Nan asked Loki beside him.
"Yes, this is indeed their village, but now Weishenme will become like this, I don't know. This morning was supposed to be the day of the competition, but Sister Lili and they waited for a long time, and no one from the other party came. That's why I sent someone here to look for them, but after walking around the village, I found ice corpses all over the ground, and even Charles X's father and son were dead, so I asked you to come here to see. Loki said with a pale face.
Zhao Nan also felt very strange in his heart, these scenes in front of him were obviously the same as the traces left by the place where Kong Wu fought with the mysterious enemy yesterday. It's just that he can't figure it out, such a powerful guy will suddenly appear here in Weishenme?This area of Konoha Village is logically an area where low-level phantom beasts are active, and it is impossible for high-level phantom beasts to appear.
So, could it be a dragon?
The only possibility that Zhao Nan could think of was a giant dragon, because only a giant dragon had this ability. But isn't the dragon's battle line on the northwest side of the Whispering Forest?
"Let's go back first, and inform the militia in the village to expand the patrol and find any suspicious people or ...... Monster, just notify me. Zhao Nan instructed Loki.
"Yes. Loki replied loudly, the only person he can rely on now is Zhao Nan, after all, whether it was yesterday's iceberg or today's mysterious killing in the next village, these two things reveal weirdness and horror, and they are definitely not something that ordinary people like him can handle.
After Zhao Nan returned to the wooden house, he opened the private chat channel again and finally contacted Gu Ming.
"Why are you looking for me? Didn't I tell you, we are helping Zhang Heng and Aotian complete the task of changing jobs. Gu Ming's faint voice sounded.
"Don't talk nonsense, there are some things to tell you, Uncle Kong Wu is dead. Zhao Nan said directly.
"When?" Gu Ming's tone did not change.
"Just yesterday, I wanted to wait for you to complete the task before telling you, but today we have something happening here, so I want to ask you. Zhao Nan continued and talked about today's incident.
"It can't be a dragon. ”
After listening to Zhao Nan's words, Gu Ming came to a conclusion without hesitation.
"Weishenme?" Zhao Nan was a little surprised to hear that he had simply excluded the dragon.
"First of all, I'll rule out the possibility that the enemy is a pure-bred dragon, because if the enemy is this kind of monster, you should be dead. ”
"You are so affectionate, how much do you want me to die?" Zhao Nan's face was full of black lines, and he felt a chill at Gu Ming's words.
"Secondly, as I told you before, dragons have a very strong sense of region, especially the wurm system, although it is a war of aggression, but they all have to accept the rule of the superior purebred dragons, they can't stay away from the area where the dragon kings are responsible for the invasion, even if it is the wurm system that has evolved wisdom and is called Zanoi. ”
"You have a point, but who is this mysterious enemy? Killing a village for no reason. Zhao Nan asked a little puzzled.
"You'll have to find out for yourself. ”
"Hey, won't you help me think about it?"
"Aren't we also going to help Aotian and Zhang Heng with the transfer mission? I don't see you to help? Speaking of which, you are also strange, since there is a strong enemy near the Missili River, why do you want to stay here, with your personality and identity, there is no reason to stay. ”
Zhao Nan was stunned for a moment, he was really a little confused when Gu Ming said this. Yes, if it were before, he could just throw it away, whether it was who killed Kong Wu, or the future safety of Konoha Village, none of this had anything to do with him.
"You can't take care of it. Zhao Nan replied angrily, and turned off the private chat channel.
Now, because of these two incidents, the entire Konoha Village is shrouded in a tense atmosphere, and Loki can only try to appease those villagers and make them try not to stay away from the village.
Zhao Nan returned to the room alone, pulled out the map of the system, and looked at it over and over again, he wanted to check if there were some advanced maps near here that he didn't usually notice. According to his inference, the monster that can kill Kong Wu, a level 59 player, is at least a level 60 leader monster, and yet, the area near Konoha Village is a novice monster of level 1~9. Where did the high-level boss come from?
On the other hand, in the Terran old Lincoln Empire, a Moroccan town.
In an inconspicuous, narrow alley, eleven white rays of light appeared, and then, a group of men and women dressed in different clothes appeared out of thin air.
Huo Ning glanced at the surroundings, and then said to the others: "This is a Moroccan town, a town in the south of the Lincoln Empire that is quite close to the border, according to the information provided by the female player named Liu Joy, this is where she and her boyfriend were attacked by that mysterious red player. ”
"It smells terrible. You Jia couldn't help but cover her nose and said. The faces of the others were also a little ugly, because when they appeared in this alley, there was a rancid smell in the air.
"Let's go out and have a look. ”
Huo Ning said a word and took the lead out of the alley, until all the eleven people in the group walked outside, everyone showed a frightened expression. I saw that the town in front of me was full of rotting corpses, almost all of these corpses were intact, as if they had all been cut open by sharp weapons, the severed arms and stumps were east and west, and the internal organs were all flowing to the ground. Plus it's not a short time to die, so the rancid smell is simply disgusting.
"Vomit ......"
In the investigation team, I didn't know that the female player was the first to vomit, like a chain reaction, everyone else bent down and vomited, and even Huo Ning couldn't help retching a few times.
After all, they are all ordinary people, and this kind of scene of corpses everywhere and rivers of blood naturally has a great impact on them.
Everyone rested for a while before buffering, and Huo Ning said to the others: "This Moroccan town is not big, because of its remote location and sparse population, even the dragon has not appeared here. Since that red player has stayed in this place, maybe there will be clues about him, I hope you can look for it carefully. ”
"No problem, Mr. Huo Ning, since we can join the investigation team, we will naturally do what you ask, but, according to our previous agreement, if there is any danger, we will not hesitate to leave. A young man with a mustache said to Huo Ning, there were four other people with him, five of them in total, and they were players who temporarily joined the investigation team in addition to Huo Ning's Nantian Guild.
"That's nature. Huo Ning nodded, and then shouted to the others: "If it's okay, the investigation will start now, and in two hours, return here to gather." ”
