Chapter 50 We Are All Dead (Early Morning)

Hermann! Although they were prepared, Virgil and Seraphina were still surprised.

What they care about is never Herman himself, but the existence behind Herman.

"Ron, are you sure?" Seraphina exhaled, rubbed her eyebrows, and said.

I always feel a little pain in my forehead.

Damn it.

She was just a marquis's daughter.

Just a heroic female knight.

She really has no right to be involved in a conflict of the vice-pope's level.

Ron did not answer, but looked at Virgil next to him. Virgil's face was also very solemn. He could feel that although he did not want to go against Vice Pope Apu, there seemed to be some mysterious force pushing him forward from behind, and he seemed to be more and more deeply bound to Ron.

Now we are basically on the pirate ship.

Virgil scratched his hair in distress, then sighed, reached out and touched the storage ring, and immediately some messy things appeared on the table in front of him.

Seraphina took a look and frowned: "What are these?"

What animal did you pull these long, sharp claws from? One-inch-long, hook-like fangs.

There are even some black scales with blood stains and hairs that look like steel needles.

A bit disgusting.

"Ron asked me to secretly investigate Herman before." Virgil replied, "Because the matter is special, I don't know how many of the clergy of the church are die-hard fans of the Vice Pope, so I will investigate this matter personally."

"I found these inside Herman's house."

"Does he have a zoo at home?" Seraphina raised her pretty eyebrows.

Virgil shook his head, his face pale. "I saw with my own eyes that Hermann cut off his long nails, used pliers to pull out the fangs at the corners of his mouth, pulled clumps of hair off his body, and peeled off the black scales on his body..."

"I collected these while he was away." Virgil suddenly raised his head, his eyes trembling, "He... may not be human anymore."

Seraphina's throat kept moving as she looked at the things on the table and imagined how they were pulled out of human bodies. She felt horrified.

"This is the black beast." Ron picked up a scale with two fingers and narrowed his eyes. "Judging from the size, color, and hardness of the scale, Herman is currently in the second stage of alienation!"

"I don't know how the black beasts spread, and I don't know how to interrupt the alienation process except by killing them. Don't ask me these two questions." Ron glanced at Seraphina next to him and said.

Seraphina moved her lips and swallowed the words she was about to say.

"All I know is that black beasts hatch from young eggs. They are very small, many times smaller than ant eggs. They sneak into the human body silently, then hatch, feed on human essence and blood, and grow rapidly."

"The process of being alienated by the parasite is the process of the black beast's young growing up."

"This process will last for about half a month to a month. The strength of the parasite will increase rapidly during this period, while the soul and will will be gradually eroded..."

"But his existence will not disappear. Instead, it will gradually merge with the young black beast to form an even more bizarre, ugly, and twisted existence."

"This process is divided into five stages in total. Starting from the third stage, the black beast cub has the ability to create infected people."

"Anyone who is scratched or bitten by a black beast larva above the third stage will be infected by the mysterious virus carried by the black beast. In a very short period of time, they will lose all their sanity and become crazy beasts."

"Like the black beasts, they also have long nails and sharp fangs. They crave fresh blood and flesh, and will indiscriminately attack any normal life."

In some ways, these infected are like a group of zombies.

But unlike zombies, their bodies will not rot, nor will they be as slow as zombies. They are as agile as animals, and their remaining intelligence allows them to accept simple commands.

"The scariest thing is that these infected people also have the ability to spread the infection."

Virgil and Seraphina turned pale suddenly. Once this infection spread, it would not take long before the entire city of Larnaca would become a paradise for the walking dead.

Could this be the destruction of Larnaca that Ron had mentioned? Damn it, if I had known this would happen, I should have let Ron kill Herman. Virgil and Seraphina had the same thought in their minds almost instantly.

Unfortunately, Ron's next words easily overturned this conclusion: "Of course, neither the black beast nor the infected are the real threat. The real threat is the young god who is about to awaken."

"So what should we do next? How do we deal with something like this?" Seraphina quickly regained her spirits.

"First of all, we'd better use Hermann's experience to find out how the black beasts parasitize and spread. If all goes well, we may be able to greatly reduce the appearance of black beasts." Ron looked at Virgil.

Virgil understood and immediately said, "According to my investigation, on the night you entered the church, Hermann left home and went to two places."

"You know, he was beaten by you and his fiancée was taken away from him. He was extremely depressed. This kind of depression and repression cannot be cured by healing magic, so he went to a potion shop in the city and bought a few bottles of love potion from an old pharmacist... ahem, this kind of potion can effectively relieve depression and relieve stress."

"Then he went to the brothel in Praia and conducted import and export trade with the prostitutes there." Virgil spread his hands and quickly spoke out the information he had.

"I often... ahem, I often hear about that brothel. It's a very formal brothel that has been operating for decades. It has a very good reputation and basically there won't be any problems."

"As for the potion shop, it was opened last year. It has been in operation for more than a year and is open 24 hours a day."

"There was only one old man in the store."

"It is said that there is a very unpleasant smell in the store, so business is very poor. I don't know how it can survive."

"All in all, there is something wrong with this store. If Hermann was really parasitized in one of these two places, I feel that the possibility of the potion shop is greater." Virgil said.

"Then keep an eye on this store." Ron thought for a moment and said, "As for Herman, I suggest getting rid of him as soon as possible. In three days at most, he will enter the third stage. We can't let him create a large number of infected people."

"If you're worried about offending the vice-pope, you can leave it to me to handle. You just need to help control the situation!" Ron said quietly.

"Count me in." Seraphina spoke slowly. This woman made the decision very quickly. She could not let the city of Larnaca be at risk.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

Virgil grinned. He really didn't want to get involved in such a mess, but even Seraphina had expressed her opinion. He couldn't be inferior to a woman, right?

Although, this woman is stronger than him.

"Count me in, too!"

Ron exhaled slowly, a hint of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes. Herman was different from ordinary black beasts. In the world line woven by the repairman, Herman was very likely the weapon used to kill him, so this time, no matter what, Herman must be killed.

What would the repairman do without this weapon?

"Then, try to collect as many fire and light magic scrolls as possible."

"Neither the Black Beast nor the Young God have obvious weaknesses, but Fire and Fierce Light can still cause more damage than other magic."

While Ron was recalling his experience from his previous life, he quickly assigned tasks: "Seraphina, the situation on your side is even more troublesome."

"There must be more than one Black Beast, Herman. After the Black Beast hatchling reaches the third stage, it can receive signals from the young god that has not yet hatched."

"These black beasts, which have not yet reached their full form, will start looking for food for the young god in advance."

"Please increase patrols in Larnaca City. If we can track their movements, we may be able to find the Young God's lair."

As long as the young god is eliminated, the world line that the repairman has gathered will be completely disrupted.

The danger of his death might be resolved! "What food?" Seraphina asked again with a solemn expression.

"heart!"

Seraphina's eyes slightly stern: "Then, what if I successfully find the nest of the young god?"

"Just tell me." Ron lowered his eyelids and said quietly, "Leave the rest to me. You don't need to get involved."

Seraphina will die before the Child God.

Virgil and Seraphina's expressions changed. They were very smart and they understood something from Ron's words.

There was a brief silence at the scene. A few seconds later, Seraphina tore through the solemn atmosphere: "Ron, tell me, what will be my ending in the future you see?"

Virgil was also staring at Ron.

Ron frowned slightly: "Are you sure you want to know?"

"Sure……"

"Sure!"

Ron glanced at Seraphina and Virgil, and spoke slowly: "We...are all dead!"

Except Virgil... Of course, Ron didn't say the latter sentence! 　The first chapter is here in the early morning. Thank you for the reward and support.
