Chapter 112: The Plague Demon

Gard chuckled, as if he had expected that Ike would not be able to get up.

And Blexar Agas, who was standing behind him, also trembled slightly, and it seemed that the handsome face under the helmet couldn't help but laugh evilly.

Lance had already seen some of the reasons for Ike's hangover from the actions of the two men.

He glanced at Gard and Brexar, did not speak, and then said to the head of Tours on the side: "Good morning, Commander Tours, you have been busy all night last night, and you have worked hard! ”

As he spoke, Lance unceremoniously picked up the glass of ale that still had a lot left in front of Gad, gestured to Captain Tours, and then drank it all in one gulp.

"Haha...... Okay, I like it!"

After speaking, Captain Tours also picked up the cup in front of him and drank the wine in the cup in one gulp.

Then Captain Tours made a gesture to Lance, and Lance pulled over the stool and sat down.

After sitting down, Lance expressed his gratitude to Captain Tours, and then he pulled his face and asked Gad angrily, "Ike never sleeps lazy, he can't afford to drink from you, how much did you drink last night?"

"Haha...... No more, no less, thanks to your bard friend, Brian Aps. Ha ha...... He's a great drinker......"

"Brian?

Lance asked angrily.

Lance was very happy that this eloquent bard, with his new girlfriend Brooklyn, had survived by luck.

But listening to Gard's tone, it seems that Ike's hangover is because of Brian.

"Haha...... Give you two gold coins, and I'll help him pay back the money he owes you!"

So saying, Gad took two gold coins from his money bag and placed them on the table, and with a wicked smile on his face, pushed them in front of Lance.

Obviously, Ike was drunk like this because of these two gold coins, however, these two gold coins were the money Brian owed to Lance.

"Huh, he sold Ike just because of these two gold coins?"

"Haha...... It can't be said to be for sale, it's just that Ike is too real, as long as there is wine, he will not refuse to come, and Brian, an interesting guy, can always find a way to say for every glass of wine, such as a glass of respect for the past, a glass for tomorrow, and a glass for the real self...... All in all, it was a lot of fun to drink. ”

"Hey...... I'm afraid he is so towards you just to ask you to help him pay back the money!

Lance shook his head a little helplessly.

Lance didn't take these little ideas of Brian to heart, but he still said to Gad and Blakesar in a joking tone: "I took the money, don't let me get a chance, otherwise it will definitely make you look good......!"

"Then we'll wait...... Haha......"

"Okay, just wait for me, and see how I clean you up when the time come......s!"

"Okay, okay, don't make trouble, Captain Tours still has something to tell you. ”

After some nonsense, Gad suddenly said to Lance with a serious expression.

Then he smiled and nodded to Captain Tours, and passed the conversation over.

"Brother Lance, after you left yesterday, I integrated all the church forces that came this time and carried out a quick sweep of the whole city, and in the process of cleaning, we found that those high-level ghouls in your mouth did not belong to this world, as stated in the intelligence. ”

"Oh, not of this world, aren't ghouls the product of necromancy?"

Lance frowned a little confusedly.

In his understanding, ghouls are created by necromancers through necromancy and special methods.

One of the most famous is the legendary originator of ghouls, Frankenstein Victor.

It is said that he has long since broken away from the category of ghouls who need to gnaw corpses and devour souls, and has become an immortal being, and he has also integrated into human life, but hundreds of years have passed, and no one knows what the human identity of the legendary ancestor of ghouls, Frankenstein Victor, is.

But now Captain Tours said that those high-level ghouls did not belong to this world, which somewhat subverted Lance's inherent concept.

Lance looked at Gad, who nodded at him, with a puzzled look.

Then he looked at Captain Tours again, nodded his head, and continued to listen to what Commander Tours had to say.

"Ghouls are indeed the product of necromancy, and there's nothing wrong with that. But in Kohima City, those who you think are high-level ghouls are actually alien variants of the alien world that invaded the continent of Kostana, but many of their characteristics have a certain similarity with high-level ghouls, so you think they are just ghouls, which is also a disguise for their identity, but their real name is - Plague Demons. ”

"The plague?"

After hearing this name, Lance's face also became very solemn.

This name, which can stop the crying of children, is known to everyone on the continent of Kostana.

It's just that as time goes by, many people who don't know what is going on will think of it as a story made up by bards.

However, Lance learns from Grandpa Laurie that the "plague demon" really exists, but it hasn't appeared again for many years.

Now the high-ranking members of the church whose mission is to fight evil say this name themselves, even Lance, who is not deeply involved in the world, knows the power of it.

Captain Tours' tone paused for a moment, as if waiting for Lance to digest the content to a certain extent.

Seeing Lance looking up at him again, Head Turce continued: "Yes, it's the plague demon, at the beginning, the Holy See got this information, in addition to being shocked but not believing, so I urgently sent Judge Alec, who was still on a mission in the Erin Forest, to be sent here with me, and at the same time, fortunately, with the help of Gard and you, this can successfully eliminate the plague demon that surfaced." ”

Speaking of this, Head Tours took a deep breath, then propped his hands on the table, approached Lance and continued in a mysterious whisper: "This matter is not trivial, I am afraid that the Holy See will mobilize most of the church's forces to carry out a large-scale cleaning and killing of the plague demons. ”

"Commander Tours, although you are a plague demon, but the city lord Andre who was killed by me, I didn't find too much of anything unusual about him, how did you determine that he was the plague demon?"

Lance asked, scratching his head.

Although he didn't quite understand why Commander Tours told him what he was going to do with this.

But he wondered what the difference was between a plague demon and a ghoul.

"After the ghoul is killed, the corpse will quickly lose its vitality and become a dry corpse, but the plague demon will not, after you left yesterday, when we cleaned Andre's corpse, this did not happen. ”

After listening to the narration of Captain Tours, what Lance felt was wrong yesterday finally got the answer.

But he and Ike didn't think much of it at the time.

But......

What does all this have to do with him?

He was just a martial artist in the junior realm, although he had just awakened the heart of magic and become a magic swordsman, and his combat power had been improved, but ...... What did Commander Tours do when he told him this?

Lance frowned and cast an inquiring glance at Gad again.

Gad, however, pretended not to see anything, smirking and tilting his head to the side, as if he was brewing something again.

Captain Tours smiled, then sat up straight and continued to say to the silent Lance: "Brother Lance, I don't know if you noticed last night, the ghouls produced in the middle and late stages of the castle are all newly infected and transformed, but the ghouls created by necromancy cannot have such a rapid infection ability, and such a rapid transmission of infection ability happens to be what the 'plague demon' is good at - assimilating the epidemic, and those necromancers used it in the first place." This characteristic of the plague demon created the ghoul as an evil creature. ”

When Commander Tours said this, his face became very solemn and serious.

This is the first time in nearly 1,000 years that traces of "plague" activities have been discovered.

Once these "plague demons" are scattered in all corners of the continent, then they can rely on their super ability to spread infections and create a large number of bloodthirsty and fearless "cannon fodder legions" of plague demons.

However, the one that Lance killed yesterday, that is, the "City Lord Andre", was only the lowest-level "plague demon".

At this time, Lance also fell into silence.

If it is true that as Captain Tours said, the plague demon has such a strong ability to spread infection, then it is everyone on the continent of Kostana who suffers.

Lance, who has had a dream of heroism since he was a child, naturally understands the power of it.

But he was only a Demon Swordsman at the peak of the Beginner Realm, although after a little consolidation of training, he could have the ability to fight against a Martial Cultivator of the Junior Realm.

But......

What can he do about it with his current abilities?

Lance sighed, pursed his lips and blinked his eyes a few times, then said to Captain Tours with some helplessness and regret: "When I was in the castle last night, I also felt very strange, obviously we have only been away for a long time, and there are already many people in the banquet hall, who have been converted into low-level ghouls, you must know that Ahmed and I have only been away for more than half an hour, but...... It was a very urgent situation and we didn't have time to think about it......"

Speaking of this, Lance hesitated for a moment after a tooth flower, and finally made his own decision, and then continued to say to Commander Tours: "Commander Tours, you tell me this...... Is it something to do?"

"Brother Reims, the reappearance of the plague demon on the continent of Costana will definitely bring a terrible disaster to the continent, and none of us will be spared from the disaster, however...... As followers of the Twilight God, warriors defending our homeland, we must be at the forefront of meeting the enemy, defending our families and all the land of the Twilight God. ”

The more the regimental commander Tours spoke, the more agitated he became, as if he was doing pre-war mobilization work.

Many of the drunken knights in the tavern were also infected by the "speech" of the head of Tours, and gathered around Reims.

It has to be said that Commander Tours does have a strong talent for leadership.

If it was in battle, his words would definitely double the combat power of the fighters.
