Chapter 1628 Great Change (6)

There were four beds in the room, three of which were already empty. The beds were charred and black, with half-burnt sheets scattered beside them. There were traces of fire on the ground and walls, and patches of sparks were still shining on the scorched walls, and nearby windows were broken, as if someone had got out of the room.

There was a man lying on the last bed, and he was emitting green smoke all over his body. Originally, the skin of a febrile patient was only red, but now his skin was dark red, and patches of erythema appeared all over his body. Red spot sparks flickered, and the man's hair suddenly burned. He hugged his head and yelled, and fell off the bed.

"Help me!" He stretched out his hand in the direction of the door, and flames spewed out from his eyes.

"What's going on here." Huo Yi swept over, reached out and touched the man's shoulder, then retracted like lightning. He only felt that he touched a red-hot stone, not a person's shoulder.

At this moment, the man fell back, and a ball of flames spewed from his chest. Huo Yi stepped back again and again, looking helplessly at the man whose whole body was on fire. In the flames, the man's limbs gradually deformed. His face was protruding forward, with curved corners protruding from either side of his forehead. The arms swelled, and the feet grew into anti-jointed limbs like artiodactyls. Just in front of Huo Yi, this man transformed into a monster in the flames. The flames gradually disappeared. The monster raised its head, roared at Huo Yi, then turned around and rushed towards the window, and then got out through the broken window .

The housekeeper said tremblingly: "My lord, the same happened to the three people before, they all turned into monsters. My lord, how could this happen."

Hoy couldn't answer this question either.

There were screams in Gun City, and patients with fever turned into monsters. Not only in Gun City, but also in King Pingxi's camp, monsters kept coming out. In fact, this is happening throughout the empire.

However, the territory belonging to Allen was surprisingly calm. I don't know whether it was a fluke or other reasons, the blood cloud that night did not pass through Alan's territory, but the news of mutated monsters appearing in various parts of the empire still had a great impact on this territory. The towns in the territory are panic-stricken, and some towns have even looted food. Edward quickly issued a ban, strictly prohibiting merchants from taking the opportunity to drive up prices, and at the same time open granaries, residents can buy as much as they want. Through a series of measures, after two days, the phenomenon of food purchases stopped, and the residents were relatively safe.

In the City Lord's Mansion of the Bauhinia Flower City, Edward stood in front of a wall. There are several portraits pasted on the wall, all of which are those febrile patients who have mutated into monsters, reproduced through the artist's pen. At this time, people came in one after another, but it was Laura and King Xilong.

Turning around, Edward glanced at Shiron. The appearance of this king is no different from that of a human warrior, his whole body is covered in hideous black heavy armor, but his aura is inhuman. At least Edward has never seen any human with such a lava-like aura. Edward even smelled a faint smell of sulfur in the air. He sniffled and tried to make his tone sound calm: "You two are here."

Laura nodded and said, "Shiron is the commander of the Burning Legion. If you want to ask any questions about that legion, I think he can answer you."

Edward nodded, and stepped back a little so that Laura and the two could see the portrait on the wall. He said: "In the past few days, a large number of patients with fever have appeared in the empire. Just two days ago, these patients suddenly mutated. They turned into these monsters in the portraits. When I saw these portraits , I am very puzzled. These monsters seem to be very similar to the army brought by Master Allen, so I asked Miss Laura to bring you here, Lord Xilong, I hope you can see if my guess is correct."

Hiron stepped forward, the fire in his helmet flickered, Edward felt a scorching gaze sweep over the paintings on the wall, and then he heard Hiron said in a deep voice: "Yes, these are indeed similar to our soldiers, although there are slight differences , but it should be an error when translating,

But collectively, these things are the soldiers of our legion. "

Laura asked in surprise, "Could it be that Mitinas has produced new troops recently?"

"This is impossible. Lord Mitinas has not taken any action in this regard recently. Moreover, our soldiers are definitely not produced from human mutations." Xilong denied it.

"That's weird." Laura frowned. "In this case, maybe only Alan knows the reason."

"Master Allen went to Sardinia to meet His Royal Highness Lucy at the Cemetery of the Blood King. I'm afraid he won't be back in a short time." Edward said: "As for those mutated monsters, they disappeared in the human world after leaving the town. I don't think they're really going away, it's more like some kind of secret collection. Maybe in the near future, they'll come back."

"Master Xilong, can I ask you, please, and your army to protect this territory." Edward said solemnly.

Xilong said without hesitation: "This is my duty. We are the army of His Highness Allen, and we should protect his territory."

Edward nodded: "I hope the young master will come back soon."

According to the information collected by the intelligence agencies established by the empire, all the patients with fever left the town quickly after they mutated into monsters. No one knew where these monsters went. Both the empire and the eastern army sent people to investigate, but all the people sent out eventually disappeared like mud cows into the sea. After several times, people from both sides dared not send troops to investigate rashly anymore.

The mutated patients accounted for about 40% of the total population of the empire, and nearly half of the mutated soldiers of the Panlong Empire, according to the incomplete statistics of the intelligence agencies. In just one day, an army of nearly one million monsters appeared, which was an extremely terrifying number. No matter for the empire or the Panlong army, this army of monsters is a huge threat.

In the southern border of the empire, there is a primeval forest called "Ilinal". At that time, the first brother "Seglis" that Allen met landed in this forest. This primeval forest is full of all kinds of dangerous creatures, but today, even the most powerful life in the forest, And escaped from the forest far away. If someone looks down from the air now, they will see a large area of ​​scorched land in the center of the forest. Hundreds of stoves are placed on the scorched land, and countless trees have been cut down and dragged into the stoves to be burned. Then from the other side of the furnace, fiery red magma flowed out. No one knew what was inside the furnace. They were like craters that continuously produced hot magma.

And those workers who cut down and dragged trees were millions of monsters that disappeared from the empire in one day!
