In those cities where the epidemic broke out, people were trying to escape, the teleportation square was flooded, the city gates were overcrowded, and order was completely out of control!

Other cities that did not have an outbreak of the plague also fell into panic and announced the imposition of a lockdown on the city, prohibiting outsiders from entering the country.

After the initial chaos, the Empire of Heroes has once again stepped up and taken the initiative to take responsibility in the fight against the plague.

On the one hand, they called on players who are at risk of infection not to go online again for a short time until the situation is under control, and then try to log in.

After the publicity of the major media, players in the cities where the epidemic broke out, most of them took the initiative to go offline, and only a small number of people did not heed the call.

Soon, bustling cities became empty cities, the streets were empty, a gust of wind blew, and only some garbage floated into the sky, desolate and deserted.

On the other hand, the Hero Empire unites the various forces of the Second World to study this plague together to find a solution to it.

In the scientific research base of the Demon Beast Mountain Range of the Hero Continent, a group of experts represented by Filter Night are studying this plague day and night.

In addition, various academic organizations such as the Central Continental Medical Society, the Oskan Royal College Medical College, the Poison Alliance, the Witch Doctor Association, and other academic organizations, as well as various players who are proficient in potions and poisons, are also conducting research around the world.

Two days later, the first infected finally died, their entire bodies turned into puddles of pus and blood, and the stench was terrible.

Tian Dao, Qin Shiyu, and Pawn Fish quickly issued a clean-up order to the NPCs led by the Guardian of the Hero Empire, instructing them to go around the world to clean up the corpses of those infected and purify the air in their areas.

After the deaths of the first infected people, the situation eased and there were no new deaths.

The world is starting to get back to some normal, and those players who have gone offline have finally started to try to go online.

……

Dongying Continent, Cherry Blossom City.

This city is a well-known Japanese master - Sakura's city, since he served as the lord of the city, the city is full of cherry blossoms, beautiful, plus Sakura himself is a beautiful boy, very popular, making Sakura City one of the most lively cities in the East Continent.

The plague two days ago, two cities in the Dongying Continent were affected, and Sakura City was very lucky that there were no infected people.

Sakura immediately issued an order to block the city, announcing that Sakura City was only allowed to leave and not enter, completely preventing the source of infection from entering the city.

On this day, the cherry blossom town is still as lively as usual, the streets are bustling, people playing the piano and singing under the cherry blossom trees, and couples kissing and hugging.

Sakura himself was strolling down a street, smiling and looking at it with relief, and passers-by recognized him and greeted him respectfully.

"Rest assured, our Sakura City will not be locked down for long, the plague has almost been controlled, there are no new cases in the world, and I will announce the lifting of the lockdown in a few days, and then you can call your friends over to play together!" Sakura looked around at the people on the street and said softly.

A gust of wind blew, blowing his cloak and fluttering slightly, heroic, and the sun shone on his handsome face, more beautiful than a woman!

Time seemed to stand still, and everyone around was overwhelmed by his beauty, and they were stunned for a while.

At this moment, Sakura's body trembled!

Then, black blood suddenly spurted out of his seven orifices, his limbs shook uncontrollably, and a crazy roar came out of his mouth!

In the blink of an eye, the cherry blossoms have turned into this terrifying appearance! There is no longer any handsome temperament!

Everyone was startled and stared at him blankly!

"He, he, he seems to be infected!" Finally one of them reacted and stammered!

The crowd was suddenly awakened and fled in all directions, screaming in horror, lest they could avoid it.

People on the other streets, only to see the people here scattered in a panic, not knowing what was happening, but for the sake of safety, they also ran along, and the panic began to spread rapidly!

However, some people had just run a few steps before their bodies suddenly stopped, black blood spurted out of their seven orifices, and a terrible roar came out of their mouths, and they actually showed symptoms of infection!

At this time, not only Sakura City, but also cities around the world, a new batch of infected people appeared.

Many of them were in safe areas and were supposed not to be infected, but somehow they were infected.

It turned out that it was related to the contagion mechanism of the soul plague. The virus, even during the incubation period, is contagious.

Before, the first batch of people infected by spirit demons became first-level infected, and the virus was latent in their bodies, and there was no outbreak. During this time, people they come into contact with will also be infected and become second-level infected, albeit for a longer period of time.

As the number of infected people continues to move around the world, to cities and continents, the number of infected people has increased exponentially, and countless people have become level 3 infections and level 4 infections...... And so on, the longer the incubation period, the longer the poison occurs, and the time of the poison is different.

Two days ago, when the batch of first-level infected people broke out, although many cities were locked down, on the surface it seemed that there were no infected people mixed in, but in fact there were already a large number of second-, third-, and fourth-level ...... Infected people are only in the incubation period.

Now, it's the turn of the Level 2 infected to start the poison! The extent of this wave of outbreaks far exceeded that of the first wave, and it was no longer limited to the largest group of cities, but was a global outburst in various cities!

In the 46th minute of the second batch of infected people, a system announcement sounded between heaven and earth-

"[System Announcement]: The number of infected people of the [Soul Plague] has exceeded 10 million, and the plague has been promoted to the second stage, which will spread through sound, and after hearing the voice of the infected person, you can be infected, and you will be poisoned on the spot, and you will die 10 hours later. When the number of infected people reaches a certain level, the virus will mutate and new modes of transmission will be added. ”

The whole world was stunned!

Spread by sound!

As long as you hear the voice of the infected, you will be infected!

It's a completely unheard-of way of contagion!

And after infection, it will be poisoned on the spot, and there is no longer an incubation period!

At this time, the poisoners around the world are roaring uncontrollably, and countless players have heard their roars.

As long as there is a poisoner in a street, his roar can be heard throughout the street, and everyone on the street will be infected.

In cities all over the world, countless players who were fleeing wildly trembled when they heard the roar of those poisoners.

The message conveyed by that roar transcends the physical body and acts directly on the soul, making everyone's soul feel the same way.

Then, the bodies of countless people who fled wildly stopped one after another, and black blood spurted out from the seven orifices, joining the ranks of the roar.

This time, it is not one person who is infected, but one street by one, and no one in the area where the infected person is located is immune!

Those who survived quickly took new precautions and resorted to sound isolation methods to avoid hearing the roars of the infected.

One by one, they flew into the sky as fast as they could, heading out of the city!

After flying to a safe distance, they patted their chests with trepidation and looked down at the city below.

I saw that the streets where the plague broke out in the distance were full of zombie-like crowds of people with teeth and claws, open mouths and shouting, densely packed, and the mere look made people feel extremely frightened.

At this moment, a solemn system announcement sounded between heaven and earth-

"[System Announcement]: The number of infected people in the [Soul Plague] has exceeded 100 million, and the plague has been promoted to the third stage, which will spread through visual transmission, and you can be infected after seeing the infected person, and you will be poisoned on the spot, and die 1 hour later. When the number of infected people reaches a certain level, the virus will mutate and new modes of transmission will be added. ”

Stage 3!

Communicate through the visuals!

As long as you see an infected person, you will be infected!

In the next moment, many players who had already fled to the safe area trembled one after another, and black blood spurted out of the seven orifices, becoming infected!

They just glanced at the infected in the distance, and they were infected!

This is real visual pollution!

As long as you see the infected, your soul will be tortured and poisoned!

"Empire of Heroes Emergency Announcement: All players around the world are invited to go offline immediately! Don't make any more moves, go offline right away! Get off the line as fast as possible! ”

At this time, an urgent announcement issued by the Hero Empire sounded in the heavens and the earth!

This plague is so terrible, the speed of transmission is so terrifying, they don't dare to try any more behavior, and directly call everyone offline, this is the safest way.

However, as soon as the announcement of the Hero Empire fell, a cold voice sounded between heaven and earth-

"[System Announcement]: The number of infected people of [Soul Plague] has exceeded 1 billion, and the plague has been promoted to the ultimate stage, which will spread through the rules of the world, as long as it appears in the second world, it can be infected, and poisoned on the spot, and die after 1 minute."

This voice is the last voice heard by players all over the world!

Because in the next moment, all players, no matter what continent they are in, which city they are in, and which street they are on, are all infected!

Whether it is those master players at the level of the God Domain, or those novice players who have not even arrived in the Holy Domain, whether it is a famous super-first-class master, or those ordinary players who are silent and unknown, they are all infected!

Even in the barren mountains, in the underground ruins, in the underwater abyss, those players who have never been in contact with anyone these days are all infected!

As long as you are in the second world, you will be infected!

This is the ultimate stage of the plague of souls -

Spread through the rules of the world!

No matter what you do, no matter if you have contact with an infected person, no matter how careful you are, it is useless! As long as you're in the second world, you'll be infected!

Those players who go offline, don't think about going online in the future, as long as they go online, they will appear in the second world and be infected immediately!

Even super-first-class masters like Heavenly Dao, Blade, and Thor have obtained [Templar Armor] in purgatory, and have strictly protected their souls, but they will not have an effect, they will still be infected!

Because of the power of the rules of the world, beyond everything!

Plague of souls, no one can beat it!
