Chapter 258: A Strange Fishing Village
"Monsters?"
Roger was shocked, his hands pulled it away, the broken fishing net could not withstand his powerful force and was broken away in an instant, he rolled down to the boat, and quickly pulled out the steel sword on his back.
"Don't kill me!"
Seeing him pull out his weapon, the diminutive fish-man did not take the initiative to attack, but quickly dodged backwards, his body shrunk into a ball, the greed on his face disappeared, and he looked at Roger with a look of horror.
At this moment, a tall figure standing beside the little fishman rushed over and blocked the little fishman behind him.
He was about the same height as an adult, and he no longer looked like a human being, but his mouth was open, but he couldn't say a word.
"What's going on?"
The performance of these two monsters made Roger's heart slightly startled, and he did not let his guard down, and pulled Henrik out of the water with his other hand.
"Bang!"
With a kick on Henrik's chest, the latter spat out a large mouthful of seawater and opened his eyes leisurely.
"Where are we?"
At first, Henrik's gaze wandered a little, but he soon saw a monster not far away.
"Fishman?!"
"The little one can talk."
Roger added.
"It can't be!" Henrik looked surprised.
The fish-man is considered the lowest monster, and even if it evolves to the limit, it is difficult to produce intelligence close to that of a human, let alone speak.
"Where is this?"
Roger looked back, and the small fishing village loomed in the distance, and the structure was very similar to the one he had been to before.
But he didn't think much about it, most of the fishing villages by the sea are the same, and some similarities are normal.
"This is the village......
The little fish-man hiding behind his eyes widened, and his huge eyes were soaked with tears.
Coo-coo.
As he spoke, there was a strange noise in his stomach, and it was clear that he hadn't eaten for a long time.
"Is this a fish-man village?"
Roger was a little strange, but Henrik took out his pistol and shot it at the edge of the wooden boat, the loud sound made the little fishman tremble, and the figure standing in front of him protected the little fishman even tighter.
"Who is he?"
Henrik asked.
"It's my father."
"Can't speak?" Henrik looked odd.
"The people in the village had a strange disease, and we began to grow scales and sharpened our teeth......
"At first, it was the adults who changed, and then little by little, the whole village became like this, and now except for a few children and the elderly, the rest of the adults don't speak."
The little fish-man looked at Henrik in horror.
"Even ...... There are even people who gradually lose their minds and become like monsters. ”
Henrik and Roger glanced at each other, and both saw the surprise in each other's eyes.
"Are there any curses or spells that can turn ordinary people into monsters?" Roger asked.
Henrik nodded.
"Yes, yes, but if the whole village is ......"
"It's too hard, and it's not necessary at all."
He moved his gun slightly, and pointed at the tall figure standing in front of the little fishman.
"I know you can understand us, row, take us back!"
The tall figure struggled for a moment, but when he saw the gun in Henrik's hand, he could only nod when he thought about the power of the weapon just now.
It was not far from here to the fishing village, and it didn't take long to get close to the coast.
The sand was soft, but the surroundings were extremely dilapidated, and the village was so quiet that there was not a single figure in sight.
As soon as they entered the fishing village, a figure in sackcloth suddenly appeared from behind a house, holding a harpoon with a glittering harpoon in his hand, and stabbed Roger from behind.
"Ahh
The little fishman let out an exclamation, and Roger had naturally noticed the sneak attack, and he reflexively kicked the harpoon away, and the advanced knee hit the figure in the chest.
"Bang!"
The steel fork in his hand came out, and the figure was also slammed into the wall not far away, revealing blue skin under the torn linen.
With a hula, many figures sprang out around, some of them were wearing clothes, some were naked, some were exposed, tall, short, fat, thin, men, women, and children.
Some with sticks, others with harpoons, surrounded the four of them, their faces full of fierce defense.
"Don't do it, he didn't hurt us!"
The little fishman shouted.
"Outsiders, spare my villagers, get out of here!"
"We can't let them go, if those people in the city know that we have this strange disease, they will send hunters to kill us all!"
Another voice said.
The crowd parted, and two old men, one tall and one short, appeared in front of Roger's eyes.
Compared to the others around them, they have changed very little, except that their skin is slightly blue, and there is not much abnormality in the rest of their body.
"When did you say that the people in the village had a strange disease?"
"Don't the people in Crescent City know?"
Roger asked, a little confused.
"It's been a long time, but it's getting worse recently, and a lot of people in the village can't even speak."
One of the tall old men saw the man who had just been kicked down by Roger struggling to get up, and the expression on his face softened slightly.
He let out a long sigh, "Disaster is coming, and as for Crescent City, the situation in the city may not be much better than here, and the entire city is under martial law. ”
"Only allowed in, not out, I heard a few months ago that the people in the city also had a strange disease, and many people became monsters."
"From day to night, people are being attacked all the time, killing is going on every second, the whole city is full of blood, and no one dares to walk on the streets."
"What did you say?"
Henrik was slightly stunned, "The people in Crescent City are also suffering from strange diseases, and there are monsters running rampant at the same time?"
"How is this possible?"
Calculating the time, he and Roger would leave Crescent City for no more than a day, and even if something really happened, it would be impossible for the news to be delivered.
What's more, the old man in front of him said that it happened at least a few months ago.
But when he and Roger left, Crescent City was still in order.
Timing anomalies?
"We don't have to lie to you."
The short old man looked at Roger and Henrik, "Looks like you're coming from somewhere else." ”
His gaze lingered on Roger for a moment, "You seem to be a local, have you only recently returned to your hometown?" ”
"If I were you, leave the land as soon as possible."
"The whole region is cursed."
"People have been rumoring that disaster is coming."
"I've said everything I can say, can you spare our villagers now?"
Henrik had never encountered a similar situation before, and he glanced at Roger and understood the meaning in Roger's eyes.
"How far is it from here to Crescent City?"
The old man pointed to a dirt road at the entrance of the village, "Follow this road all the way to the north, and you will be able to see Crescent City in more than a day at most." ”
"But I really don't recommend you go there."
"Because if you go in that city, you can't get out."
Letting go of the little fishman and his father, Roger and Henrik stepped back, and the others around them remained on guard.
But when the two retreated to the entrance of the village, a roar came, and the fishman who had attacked Roger just now actually went crazy and pushed an old man to the ground.
His mouth opened wide and bit the other man's neck!
