Journey to the witch world

After the refugee incident, the rest of the journey was uneventful.

Under the escort of knights, the convoy crossed the Berard Plains. Three days later, it arrived at the border of the Swamp Principality, a small village called Blackwater Town.

The silver carriage stopped, and a knight stepped forward to open the door. Wizard Hollen straightened his collar and slowly walked out of the carriage, and Enzo followed him.

"This is the Bravo family's secular territory?"

On the ground, Enzo looked around at the barren and backward town. Most of the surrounding buildings were low stone houses. Refugees infected by the plague could be seen everywhere in the corners. Almost everyone had pain and numbness on their faces.

"It's just part of the territory."

With his feet stepping on the muddy ground, Hollen had a look of disgust on his face and frowned: "After passing Blackwater Town, you can reach [River City], [Karen City] and [Crocodile Claw City], those places This is important territory for the Bravo family.”

"However, the plague first emerged from Blackwater Town, so the situation here is also more serious."

Enzo nodded slightly. Since Blackwater Town was the source of the plague, it was understandable that the first stop of the convoy would be here. He walked slowly forward, scanning every part of the barren town.

Ga! Ga! !

A harsh and unpleasant sound sounded. On the eaves of the stone house, a crow landed on it. Its beak flexibly combed its feathers. A pair of scarlet eyes glowed with bloodthirsty, staring at the bottom of the stone house.

In the corner, there was a scrawny old man lying.

He had been infected with the plague, and his skin was ulcerated in large areas, exuding a foul smell. His cloudy eyes gradually lost their luster. After letting out a painful whimper, his body tilted and fell down.

The crow flapped its wings and flew over excitedly.

Landing on the corpse of the plague old man, the crow opened its beak and pecked it, tore a strip of flesh from the ulcerated skin, and swallowed it in one bite.

On the side, Wizard Hollen frowned.

Although he regarded mortals as ants, they were all of the same kind after all. When he saw the crow tearing the flesh and blood from the corpse, he was immediately unhappy. He raised his hand and gathered a ball of energy, ready to throw it over.

"Wait a minute, Wizard Hollen." Enzo suddenly spoke and stopped him.

Wizard Hollen raised his brows, flicked his palm casually, and the energy dissipated. In the corner of the stone house, the crow was still tearing the flesh and blood from the corpse, looking extremely excited.

"Just trying the abilities I mastered in the Tomb of the Phantom Crow." Enzo slowly closed his eyes where he was.

It was as if an invisible force descended on the crow. The crow, which had been tearing flesh and blood from the corpse, suddenly became motionless, with a trace of humanity flashing in its scarlet eyes.

The next moment, the crow's head moved and its eyes scanned the surroundings.

The first time he tried to bring a trace of soul to the crow's body, Enzo had a very strange feeling. Through the crow's eyes, he could see scenes far away.

This is one of the derivative abilities of the meditation method of "Phantom Crow Thousand Spirits", sharing souls with corvids.

Then, Enzo controlled the crow and flew to the eaves. He slowly closed his eyes and a strange feeling emerged. Pictures kept flashing through his mind.

That is the memory that belongs to this crow!

Having experienced the world of illusions eight thousand times in the Tomb of the Phantom Crow, Enzo was already familiar with the current scene. Using the function of the chip, he quickly recorded all the memories of the crow.

Starting from the hatching, the young crow stage flies out of the nest.

"Wait a minute!" Suddenly, Enzo's heart moved. The crow's memory stayed at the night a few months ago. At that time, the plague had not yet appeared in Blackwater Town. The crow landed on the eaves of a stone house and watched quietly below. everything.

Under night, next to the well in the center of the town.

A thin figure appeared furtively, took out a bottle of unknown liquid from his body, poured it all into the well, and then quietly left under the cover of night.

Under the afterglow of the moonlight, the strange totems painted with oil paint on the blurred faces are particularly clear!

"So, was this plague deliberately created by someone?" On the spot, Enzo opened his eyes, with a flash of light in his eyes. The crows on the eaves in the distance looked a little frightened after losing control of their souls, and immediately fluttered. Fly into the sky with wings.

"Did you find anything? Sir Enzo." Wizard Hollen asked from the side.

"If my guess is correct, there should be someone behind this plague." Enzo said, but before he could finish his words, the sound of horse hooves suddenly came from the entrance of Blackwater Town.

"It's the cavalry of the Bravo family." Hollen looked around and saw a cavalry team appearing at the entrance of the town not far away, carrying a flag with a thorn flower pattern.

After the cavalry appeared in Blackwater Town, a knight who looked like a leader immediately dismounted his horse, walked quickly to the front of Wizard Hollen, knelt on one knee and said, "Potter, Commander of the River City Army, see Lord Hollen!" "

"Get up." Hollen asked in an indifferent tone, "What are the cavalry from River City doing in Blackwater Town? Don't you know that the plague is spreading?"

Legion Commander Porter stood up and said respectfully, "To inform Mr. Hollen, I came to Blackwater Town to clean up the corpses of those who died due to the plague on the orders of Lord Odoli of River City."

"Cleaning up corpses that died of the plague?" Enzo raised his eyebrows.

"Yes, sir." Potter explained, "During this period, the plague in Blackwater Town has become more and more serious. Almost all the civilians in the town have died. If the bodies are left unattended, it will only accelerate the spread of the plague! "

"So, we need to dispose of the corpses together and transport them to a corpse pit in the wilderness near Hejian City for burial!"

"Why not burn the body on the spot?" Enzo was a little confused.

This time, there was no need for Potter to answer. Wizard Hollen took the initiative to speak and sighed: "The efficiency of doing so is too slow. Since the plague appeared in Blackwater Town, countless people have died in the surrounding area in the past six months." , they couldn’t be burned at all, so they could only be transported to deep pits in the wilderness and buried.”

"So that's it." Enzo nodded slightly.

Afterwards, Legion Commander Porter began to direct his men to carry the bodies of Blackwater Town onto carts, intending to transport them to a corpse pit outside Hejian City for burial before dark.

"Let's get out of here first."

Wizard Hollen looked solemn and said, "Although Blackwater Town is the source of the plague, this kind of town is not important to the Bravo family. The place where the plague really needs to be solved as soon as possible is over the River City." .”

"Okay, but please wait a moment."

Enzo nodded. Before leaving Blackwater Town, he ordered his two cavalrymen to go to the well in the center of Blackwater Town to get some water and seal it in a test tube, and then followed Hollen to River City.
