The ranger fell to the ground, blood gushing out from the wounds on his hands, but it quickly froze, stopping the bleeding to a certain extent, but his face was pale, as if he would go into shock at any time.
But the most surprising thing is that even so, his cheeks still twitched, and his whole body crawled and twisted on the ground like an insect crawling towards the sharp knife, trying to let the sharp knife pierce his body.
When he realized that he couldn't do it, he started banging his head on the ground again, trying to kill himself.
"No, no, please help me, help..."
Just when he raised his head, Jonah twisted his fist again, and the ranger lost all strength and fell limply to the ground.
"Fortunately, I have the habit of leaving a mage's hand."
Jonah was a little happy, but also even more worried.
With a wave of his hand, he summoned some straw and felt from the air, wrapped the injured man, packed him up together, and lifted him up from the air.
"The magic is amazing!"
Lu Tan couldn't help but sigh.
If you have this spell, you can stay in bed all day without moving, and food and drinks will come to you by yourself.
"...The situation is very serious right now."
Jonah glanced at Lu Tan, whose eyes were shining, and pointed at Birmingham.
"You two, come with me."
They followed the ranger floating in the air and followed Jonah to a room in the fortress.
Jonah put the man down, treated his wounds from a distance, and tied him up with ropes.
After a while, an older mage came here.
"Are you sure this is the plague?"
The mage asked.
"Without a doubt, Lord Avery."
Jonah replied.
"Responsive measures against the plague were launched overnight, and inspections must be completed by noon tomorrow."
The mage named Ai Li quickly gave the order, and he left the room, seemingly to contact the commander of the fortress.
"What is the plague?"
Lu Tan asked in the spirit of saying that he didn't understand anything anyway, so he asked the question.
"Plague is the master of the last demonic tide. Its dependents have no form, but are extremely contagious. Once they come into contact with the source of infection, they will be immediately infected by the plague. Once infected, humans will be infected uncontrollably.
Seeking death."
Jonah explains briefly.
"If one person is infected by the plague, other unsuspecting people can easily be infected, and eventually the entire army will die without resistance. This is the terrible thing about the plague."
"In this case, isolating infected people and making them incapacitated should be able to limit the plague, right?"
Lu Jian thought about the prevention and control of infectious diseases on earth.
"It would be simple if that were true, but in fact, the plague is a demonic tide that will continue to evolve and become stronger. At first, it can only be transmitted by physical contact, and then it will become a plague if you get close to a certain distance. At the same time,
People infected with the plague will not commit suicide immediately. Sometimes they will be controlled involuntarily and go to crowded places to infect them. In the end, if the number of people controlled by the plague cannot be curbed, then just a gust of wind will spread the plague to
All over the land.”
Jonah's expression was grim.
"The plague is afraid of high temperatures and sunlight, but if eternal night comes and the current temperature, the plague will be invincible."
"Lord Jonah, do you mean that two demonic tides appeared at the same time?"
Birmingham couldn't believe it.
"Although I don't want to admit it, it is the fact."
Jonah glanced at Lu Tan.
"And, maybe there really is a third wave of demons."
"Three demonic tides..."
Birmingham was in disbelief.
Normal demonic tides will already cause a large number of casualties. It is unheard of for two demonic tides to appear at the same time. Now there are three demonic tides. When the blood moon rises and the demonic tides come, I am afraid that the rangers stationed in the Black Castle will
It will only lead to death and no life.
The eternal darkness, the quietly invading plague, and the possible frost all attack together. Even if the Gray Tower stands here, it must not be able to withstand it.
"This person and the deceased did not leave the Black Castle today. They were infected with the primary plague that took effect immediately. This means that the intermediate-level plague infected people who can control humans have sneaked into the Black Castle. We must be careful and try not to interact with other people.
Physical contact.”
Jonah warned again.
That night, the Black Castle was brightly lit, and the soldiers were called up one by one to be tested by the mage to ensure that those infected with the plague were screened out.
Since Lu Tan and Birmingham had already been inspected, they returned to their vigil posts.
The sentry tower next door was empty, and the swaying firelight was like a crumbling black castle in the quiet dark forest.
Lu Tan looked at the fire and was suddenly inspired. He walked towards the sentry tower.
"what you do?"
Birmingham failed to hold Lu Jian back.
Looking at the watchtower, Birmingham was a little nervous. After all, he was not a person who had studied seriously. He would inevitably be afraid that the plague was still on the watchtower. If he touched it, he would immediately take out a knife and commit suicide, only to watch Lu Tiao helplessly.
Walk over and climb up the guard tower.
Lu Jian stood on the sentry tower and saw the blood splattered on the ground.
It was shed when the first person committed suicide.
"It's strange. According to Jonah's instructions, touching the body will lead to infection of the plague, so the blood of the deceased should also be contagious, but it was left here without cleaning up."
He used [True Sight] to look at the blood. After obtaining the relevant knowledge about the plague, Lu Jian's vision also saw that the blood itself had changed. On top of the frozen crimson color, there were some small words scattered all over it.
Naturally, Lu Jian didn't recognize these words, and The Quiet Place didn't translate them for him.
Lu Tiao touched the frozen blood.
For a moment, some kind of soft murmur sounded in Lu Tan's ears.
He couldn't hear those languages clearly, but surprisingly he could understand their meaning.
It is nothing more than spreading despair and instigating death. It is accompanied by a certain amount of mental pollution. Even a confident ordinary person will become fragile under the torture of mental pollution and will soon listen to those words and cause death.
idea.
At this time, it can control the human body and complete the final step.
Those words flowed into Lu Jian's body along the place of contact, and the babble in his ears became more and more noisy. However, for Lu Jian, these babbles were far less than the mere words of those great beings.
At the same time, grass grew in Lu Jian's body and blood vessels.
Those green plants swallowed up the words, crushed them, and wore them away. Eventually, the murmur in Lu Tan's ears gradually subsided.
"At least this level of plague seems to have no effect on me."
Lu Tran felt that winter wolves were much more terrifying than the plague.
"It's just that the blood is left here without being processed. It's impossible for Jonah not to know the danger. If other people touch it..."
He seemed to have thought of something, stood up, and then took the cleaning tools and started cleaning the sentry tower seriously.
