our family is gone

Chapter 206 The Pretender

"Muscles are completely fibrotic, hyphae replace blood vessels and nerves, but the fungus parasitizing the two is obviously not the same..."

Paracelsus put away the scalpel, and in front of her was the corpse of the dissected monster.

The situation is similar, the parasite will modify the host, and it will become deeper and deeper as time goes by, just like the corpse discovered before is only in the initial stage, and these are obviously developed in the later stage, the body removes bones and appearance Basically it has nothing to do with humans.

However, there is an interesting discovery that two different species of bacteria are parasitic on the two.

The yellow ones are obviously more inclined to parasitize the brain, while the red ones prefer the nutrient-rich internal organs. The two also have different transformations on the human body, and the reasons for this still need more research.

"No~ I feel that the red strain is a monster artificially planted into the human body, probably for the purpose of controlling those parasites."

Lance has his own ideas. It can be seen from the germs eroding the body. Although it is weird, it still slowly decays according to the laws of the human body. For example, parasites such as mushroom heads have matured and still maintain their human form without major changes.

However, the red limbs are reflexed, which is very abnormal. Only when the transformation is completely completed in the later stage and freed from the shackles of human joints can they gain mobility. Before that, they can only lie on the ground, and they can't even get up, let alone be as agile as before.

There was also something that could attract mushroom heads just now, so he was sure that it was definitely artificially modified to control monsters.

"More testing is needed, maybe we can..."

"That's right, both of them have obvious weaknesses. They are both afraid of fire." Lance interrupted Paracelsus's words, knowing without thinking that she would definitely apply for in vivo experiments again, which can be said casually ?
Paracelsus also seemed to understand something, and changed his words to emphasize.

"When the corruption enters the late stage, the weakness of the two parasites is different, one is in the head, while the other is in the abdomen, and the damage must be to a certain extent to make the monster unresponsive.

In fact, it is equivalent to cutting off the hyphae so that they cannot move independently, but at this time the bacteria are still active, and they have to be burned if they really want to completely eliminate them. "

Of course, Lance has a better way of handling it.

After the samples were collected and the corpses were sacrificed, the spirituality returned from the monsters was indeed much higher than that of the corpses of ordinary people, probably because these created monsters had the shadow of extraordinary power.

Clean up the surroundings, the creep and those monsters were sacrificed, but the mushrooms scattered on the ground made him a little embarrassed, he didn't have so much time to deal with these things, he had to cut off the enemy's corruption of the wilderness as soon as possible, and then he could use artificial advancement The wilderness, thoroughly purified!
"The enemy's conspiracy has been revealed. There is definitely more than one ritual in the wilderness. In order to protect Hamlet, we must destroy them all!"

The original exploration task turned into cleaning up the corruption, and after experiencing the battle, the other people did not show too much resistance, but gradually adapted to the wilderness.

"I need more samples."

"My big knife is already hungry and thirsty!"

"Ferggs will find those enemies."

"Wang!"

…………

"Please, my lord, let us go in."

"We can work too, as long as we give stutters."

"We've been hungry for days..."

A dozen ragged refugees were being stopped outside Hamlet by soldiers on duty. They tried to show their miserable situation in exchange for sympathy, but the soldiers showed no mercy and yelled at them with solid spears in their hands.

"No! There is nothing you want here, leave quickly."

Among these refugees, a group of men with tattered hoods walked out and asked the soldiers, "Why were those refugees able to enter before?"

"That was before, not now."

It was indeed received before. Lance cleaned this road, and Leonard led the team through it before. I have to say that this old road has become smooth. These days, refugees often come here, seeking to join to Hamlet.

The benevolent lord did not refuse, and even set up a small camp outside the town. The refugees who came could stay temporarily as long as they registered.

There is a complete process for this matter, and dozens of refugees have been received continuously in the past few days, and they will be allocated according to the situation.

Those craftsmen with abilities stay in the town, while those without special talents go to cultivate farms. Anyway, everyone can survive through labor.

However, since yesterday, the higher authorities have issued an order of martial law. Everyone who enters and exits Hamlet needs to be inspected. As for the refugees, the acceptance is suspended. These soldiers are only carrying out the order.

"My lord, please do me a favor, no one knows we went in~" The hooded man took out two silver coins from his body and gestured, "This is a little bit of our sincerity."

This move is self-evident, but Xiaobing didn't dare to take it at all, with a strong resistance on his face, he shook his head and refused.

"No, no! If you can't enter, you can't enter."

If you let them in, you will lose the qualification to become a full-time employee, and then you will lose the quota you worked so hard for, and you will lose your salary.

Moreover, accepting bribes, according to the military regulations, would be punished severely, and the family would be hurt, and the other people in the town would ridicule and despise them.

Hearing the denial, the hooded man thought it was because of the lack of money, and secretly scolded these people for their greed, but he turned around and added some more.

"These are all our money~"

But the soldier still shook his head frantically and refused, as if what the man was holding was not money but a bomb.

Seeing that so much money failed to let these greedy soldiers go, the hooded man was furious!

Those same refugees, instead of following the instructions to leave, became irritable and tried to charge the soldiers on guard into the town.

Naturally, the soldiers were unwilling, and directly raised their spears to drive them away. Seeing that things were getting worse, a series of horseshoes sounded at this moment.

The refugees turned their heads and saw a troop of cavalry galloping along the old road, and the leader was conspicuously wearing a suit of armor.

"what's going on?"

Reynard stopped the horses, and although the soldiers behind him were a little unfamiliar, they could still control the horses under their laps and maintain a certain formation.

Xiaobing was naturally relieved to see the cavalry team returning from patrolling the farms in the outskirts, and quickly explained the situation. These refugees were causing trouble and wanted to enter the town.

"Don't make trouble, whoever dares to storm the sentry and kill them directly!" Leonard looked at the scene of the riot, his eyes swept over the refugees, and no one knew what kind of expression was under the helmet.

Following his words, the cavalrymen behind them seemed to feel that the atmosphere had become dignified, and they couldn't help touching the weapons hanging on the horse.

The refugees also seemed to feel something, but they didn't panic or beg for mercy, but just stood there.

It's just that Leonard didn't take any further actions, but after a warning, his attitude eased down, thinking of the soldiers as a signal.

"Let them stay and arrange to go to the temporary camp. I will arrange for someone to bring some food and drink over later, and arrange to enter the town tomorrow."

Leonard's words surprised the soldiers, and even the dozen or so refugees were stunned.

It's just that Leonard didn't mean to explain, but rode his horse back to the training camp with the cavalry.

"Master Leonard is really a kind and upright knight. You are lucky to meet him, otherwise you can only leave here." A soldier walked out and took him there, still not forgetting to praise him.

The soldier brought the person and left directly, and because of the suspension of reception, they were the only ones staying in the camp here.

At this moment, they finally took off their disguises, and those refugees-looking people couldn't help but ask the hooded man.

"Master Deacon, what shall we do now?"

"Wait, sneak in tonight, kill the lord, and burn this town." The hooded man lifted his hood, revealing the half-disfigured face and the pale eyes.

What kind of refugees are these? They are the members of the Ascension Cult.

"But our mission is to cooperate with the Witch of the Wild..."

The believers on the side expressed their doubts. The task they received from above was not to directly attack the town. They had to hide, otherwise it would be troublesome to attract the attention of the church and would implicate the organization.

"Are you scared?"

It's okay not to mention this, but when it comes to this one-eyed man, he can't help but get furious, the scar on his face is affected to look even more ferocious, and he directly interrupted the man's words.

"I'm ready to return to God's side. It's just that with our little group, I'm afraid it will be difficult to complete the task, and it will affect the sect's plan instead."

Even though they joined the Ascension Sect as members, it didn't mean they were fools. Not to mention other things, the team of well-equipped cavalry just now was not easy to mess with.

"So we are refugees now, so I have to wait until night to act, it's just a few soldiers, can't you even deal with these?
What's more, if the task is completed by them, what credit do we have?How long do you want to wait to get the seeds?
For the sake of the sect, I am fearless and always ready to dedicate myself to God. If you are afraid, go back. "

One-eyed scolded sharply, and stated the pros and cons. He was the only one present with a position, and the rest of the congregation had to obey his orders in name.

What's more, although they have been blessed by God to gain power, but if they want to go further, they can only integrate the seeds. This precious quota cannot be obtained casually, but must be "robbed".

Why did they join the Ascension Sect?Isn't it the pursuit of flesh and blood?

How to soar without seeds?

Opportunities must be grasped by oneself, but what are a few soldiers afraid of?The deacon is a strong man who can grasp the seeds.

"I'm not afraid!"

"It's time to kill these hateful nobles!"

"..."

Seeing those congregants being reintegrated, One Eye didn't care much.

That blow last night was too vicious, not only because of the strong corrosiveness, but also the flesh and blood that grew out behind it actually gave birth to pustules and then rotted, and it seemed that something had entered the blood vessels, as if there were bugs crawling all over his body, and he wanted to tear it apart. Open your own skin and flesh.

He knew that he was definitely cursed viciously, if it wasn't for the power of the seed to suppress the abnormality in his body, he would not be able to bear it for a moment.

He wants to go back quickly and ask the sect for help to lift the curse on him, and the task must be completed before that.

That is to kill the lord and destroy the town.

"When it gets dark, let someone go to the forest to get the weapon back..."

One-eyed is planning tonight's action, and there is a sudden shout from outside.

"What about people?"

This sound frightened them, and they almost thought they had been exposed, but fortunately, they reacted quickly, and after the one-eyed signaled everyone to go out, they saw a man with a wooden barrel parked at the gate of the camp.

"What?"

"Of course it's food."

"Just put your stuff down."

"No, I have to take the bucket back and return to my life." The man patted the bucket beside him and urged, "Hurry up, didn't you say you were hungry?"

These words made these disguised refugees aware of their current identities, and immediately echoed them.

"Yes, that's right, we've been hungry for a few days."

Those people talked like this until they came over and saw the contents of the bucket, which was a gruel as thin as water, most of which were some wild vegetables and only a few rotten grains could be seen.

They can often eat meat while hiding in the wilderness. Although the source of this meat is unknown, who cares?

And now they are actually asked to eat this kind of thing that pigs would shake their heads when they see it?
"What's your reaction? We've brought out the best food in the town to share with you! Refugees are still picking and choosing here. I don't think you're hungry enough."

Listening to such words, normally they would go up and kill this man, but now they have an important task on their shoulders.

Forbear~
"Eat, let's eat." Cyclops took the initiative to step forward, isn't it just eating a little vegetable porridge, and it's not eating shit, what's the big deal?

It's just that they didn't understand when the man only handed over a long wooden spoon.

Where's the bowl?

"What are you looking at, do you want me to bring a bunch of bowls? I have received so many refugees like this, and you are the only ones who are so difficult to serve."

The man looked very mean, but those members of the Ascension Cult were so angry that they wanted to take out their weapons and go forward to chop this cheap guy.

"Eat!" One Eye gritted his teeth, and his words became stiff.

Forbearance... You can't expose it now, and I'll kill you all after tonight!
It's just that after he took a sip, the bitter and strange taste rushed directly to his brain, and his distorted expression became even more aggrieved.

But for the sake of the task, he could only swallow it abruptly.

Forbearance!

Now that the leader is like this, how dare the congregation below refuse, they can only step forward to eat a few spoonfuls, and then retreat with a bitter expression on their faces.

The man kept urging them, forcefully forcing them to eat everything in the bucket.

"Go to bed when you're full, and someone will take care of your affairs tomorrow."

There wasn't too much nonsense, the man left here without saying a word, leaving only a dozen or so people with ugly expressions.

That one-eyed look at his back made him want to kill him!

When the man walked directly into the training camp with the bucket in his hand, Leonard and the others were already waiting here.

"how is the situation?"

It was at this time that the man took off his disguise and showed his original posture. Who could it be if it wasn't Disma.

"There is definitely a problem. I don't know where those people came from, but they are definitely not refugees." As he spoke, Disma laughed wildly and raised the wooden barrel, "But I forced them to eat the whole barrel of pig food."

"Hahaha!"

Disma's words made everyone laugh, and even the serious Leonard couldn't help but curl his lips.
