Chapter 244: Resident Evil

A soft light shone brightly, illuminating the dark room.

Under the soothing of the holy light, the young man, who had been flushed and short of breath, regained his composure. He closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep, and it was only then that Nadia picked up her right hand, which had been placed on the other's forehead, and let out a sigh of relief.

"It's not a big deal, it's just that I have a fever because of excessive hunger and cold, just eat something, drink some hot soup, and recuperate."

"Hoo ........."

Hearing this, Calvin and his companions breathed a sigh of relief, and Jenn found that almost at the same time, Nadia was relieved.

But it's no wonder, knowing that before this, Nadia also wondered if it was because of her wavering faith that the gods withdrew the power they had given her, so that she could not detect those evil monsters. Now it seems that the power given to her by the gods is still there, and the reason why those monsters are undetectable seems to be the same as Jenn claims, except that they are not really "evil" monsters.

"Thank you for your help, kind knight."

Seeing that his companions were safe, Calvin was also excited, to be honest, he didn't expect much from these people. As can be seen from their attire, these people are nobles, and although Calvin doesn't know why these nobles are here, in his experience, these nobles generally look down on wanderers like them. So when he went to ask Jenn for help, Calvin was even mentally prepared to be kicked away by the other party. Unexpectedly, these nobles were so talkative, not only did they let this paladin heal the injuries of their companions. They were even given warm food. This made Calvin and the others, who had been hungry for a long time, finally eat a delicious meal, which made them almost cry.

"Alright. Now that the problem has been solved, we can get to the point. ”

Until this time. Jenn clapped his hands as well, and then he turned his head to stare at Calvin.

"I wonder, what happened to Casalans during this time? Looking at this picture, the plague outbreak in Casalans is not a matter of one or two days. ”

"This ............"

Calvin hesitated slightly when he heard Jenn's inquiry, he had already learned from the other party that they were representatives of the Templar Order, and that they had come here to investigate the outbreak of the plague in Casalands. It's just that Calvin doesn't know how he can help them, as a street thug. Calvin, like everyone else, had a natural fear of the aristocracy. In their opinion, even the saliva of those noble lords is much more precious than ordinary people. And these high-ranking people naturally also care about some high-level issues, and the information circulating among gangsters like them, those high-ranking bigwigs don't care at all, and even say it for fear of polluting each other's ears. And in front of Jenn, Calvin was even more trembling, and he didn't dare to take a breath. He knew very well that he seemed to be the only one in charge of affairs among these people. It's the young nobleman in front of him.

"It doesn't matter, you can say whatever you want, it doesn't matter if you're wrong, and we're not worried about you lying........."

As he spoke. Jenn glanced at Nadia beside him, intentionally or unintentionally.

"You know, we have a paladin here who believes in the true god."

"Mr. Jenn!"

Hearing Jenn's words, Nadia couldn't help but show a little annoyance on her face. In her opinion, Jenn was simply using his identity to oppress these poor civilians. This is absolutely unacceptable in the Paladin's Creed. So after hearing Jenn's words, Nadia suddenly wanted to retort. But she hadn't spoken yet. found that Calvin suddenly became much calmer after hearing Jenn's words, and then he relaxed his breath, and then nodded and looked at Jenn.

"Okay, noble lord, what do you want to know?"

"This ........."

Looking at Calvin in front of her, Nadia didn't know what to say for a while, she originally thought that when she heard Jenn's threat, Calvin in front of her would be annoyed or forced to be helpless. But what she didn't expect was that Calvin was actually quite relaxed, even if Nadia's EQ was not so high, she could see that Calvin was still a little hesitant before, and seemed to be worried about something. But now after hearing Jenn's words, he seems to have let go of his burden, and his whole person has become relaxed!

This scene made Nadia simply incomprehensible, how could someone be easily threatened?

Taking Nadia's expression into his eyes, Jenn couldn't help but smile inwardly. Nadia is, after all, a flower in a greenhouse, and simply doesn't understand the idea of a street thug like Calvin. You must know that in front of them, the nobles have absolute power, and they can knead these guys as much as they want, and Calvin and they don't dare to complain. In fact, Jenn knew what Calvin was worried about, and he was worried that what he said was too appalling for Jenn and the others to believe. When the time comes, if they are asked to prove what they say, what proof will they be able to prove? They're just a bunch of street thugs, can they be expected to find out the evidence behind the scenes?

I have to admit that Calvin's worries are not unreasonable, because the life of the aristocracy is relatively closed, and there is really not much understanding of the situation of the lower classes of the people in many cases. Many things that are commonplace for the lower classes are simply unbelievable and even unbelievable to them, and in this case, if Calvin says something appalling, if Jenn suspects that he is lying, then he really has nowhere to reason.

And now, with the paladin of the True Eye by his side, Calvin naturally doesn't have to worry about Jenn getting into trouble with himself. Because no matter how unbelievable he may have said, the paladin has a way of telling the truth from the fake.

That's why Calvin relaxes, but Nadia obviously can't understand the subtlety of this.

"So, let's talk about the plague."

Jenn didn't give Calvin much time to think. Instead, it gets to the point very directly.

"When did this plague begin?"

"This ......... I don't know exactly when, but it was probably about half a month ago. ”

"Half a month ago?"

Hear here. Before Jenn could say anything, Nadia was taken aback. And it's no wonder. Looking at the appearance of this stronghold in front of you, it doesn't look like you can do it in half a month. If it weren't for Calvin's words, Nadia would have even thought that this plague had been going on for months!

"Yes, yes, esteemed paladin."

Hearing Nadia's inquiry, Calvin replied with some trepidation.

"I don't know what happened elsewhere, but we knew that the plague began to spread in Casalanth about half a month ago."

"So did these plagues come from the battlefield with the Valkyrie Principality?"

Jenn asked a second question again, as the information the Templar had given them had suspected that the plague had most likely spread from the Valkyrie Principality. It's just that there is no contact in the back. The previous information was also vague, so there was hardly anything useful on Jenn's side.

"This ......... I don't know, sir. But......... I don't think it's an ordinary plague. ”

"Oh?"

Hearing this, Jenn raised an eyebrow.

"What do you mean?"

"Yes, Casalans has not experienced the plague before, and this one did look like the other plagues at first, and those infected with the plague coughed, vomited blood, and had a fever. And then die......... But, however, they weren't really dead! In the beginning, at first everyone thought they were all dead. But after a few days, those who were thought to be dead actually come back to life, and then they will start attacking what they saw!! It doesn't matter if it's a human or an animal. It was as if they had completely lost their minds and had become beasts! ”

I don't know if I remembered something. At this point, Calvin's expression began to turn blue.

"And that's not all. Whoever is bitten by those guys will also be infected with the plague, and then they will die, and they will become monsters like those guys........."

"Wait."

Hearing this, Nadia was stunned for a moment, and then she stared at Calvin with wide eyes and disbelief.

"Isn't this some kind of necromancy? Wasn't it some necromancer who turned them into undead? ”

Truth be told, it's not surprising that Nadia would have such an idea, as spreading the plague is one of the methods often used by necromancers. But they spread the plague only because it would kill as many people as possible in the shortest amount of time, so that they could collect more corpses to transform into the undead. But Calvin's narration in front of him completely subverted Nadia's cognition, and if he was right, then it also means that the plague here has nothing to do with the walking dead and the necromancer?

"I haven't heard of any necromancers, and these monsters don't look like they're commanded by anyone, Paladin."

In the face of Nadia's questioning, Calvin also answered respectfully.

"Although in the beginning, there were some paladins who came from afar to catch people who looked like cultists, but in the end, it was not a failure.........

"Do you know who they're arresting?"

Hearing this, Jenn reached out and pushed his glasses, and then asked. In the face of Jenn's inquiry, Calvin pondered for a moment, then shook his head.

"I'm sorry, my lord, I don't know. I heard that it seems to be a believer in the Esoteric Religion of Death........."

"Death Esoteric Sect?"

Faced with Calvin's answer, Jenn thought for a moment, then shook his head and said nothing more. At this moment, Nadia seemed to think of something, and asked again.

"So, do you know how Kassandra is doing now?"

"Kassandra?"

Hearing this name, a surprised expression suddenly appeared on Calvin's face.

"Paladin, are you going to Kassandra? I advise you to dispel this thought! ”

"Why?"

"Because Kassandra has completely fallen more than ten days ago, and has become a dead city!"

"What did you say?"

Hearing this, Nadia finally couldn't hold back anymore and screamed.
