Chapter 0495 Mysterious Wound



Outside the defense line, the two quickly found the body of the Chaos Beast.

However, it is a little different from other corpses...

“How strange…”

Looking at the corpse of the monster in front of her, Tina frowned. In front of her was a magic crow. Tina had killed many of these monsters before and was familiar with their habits. But none of this mattered. What caught Tina's attention was the wound on the body of the magic crow.

Those were not wounds caused by plasma bullets or beams. On the contrary, the abdomen and wings of the demon crow were full of strange equilateral triangle wounds. It looked as if some kind of triangular bullet had penetrated the body of the demon crow at a high speed and left marks on it.

Do we have such weapons?

"Hmm? What's wrong, little girl?"

Looking at Tina's serious expression, Wells couldn't help but look at her.

"Any questions?"

"Please wait, Grandpa."

Hearing Wells' question, Tina first glanced around, and after making sure there was no problem, she took two steps back and walked into the protection range of the photon turret. Then, Tina closed her eyes and began to contact Fang Zheng through the Zerg network.

"Brother Fang Zheng, I found something strange..."

To be on the safe side, Fang Zheng also set up very strict rules for the cursed children when they go out. Of course, these rules are all set by Fang Zheng based on his own experience from movies and games. For example, in the other world, you are not allowed to touch the life forms and plants of the other world without permission, and you are not allowed to bring any objects that have not been investigated, scanned and studied back to the gathering place. If you want to study the target object, you must put the target object into the demiplane space for observation and preservation... and so on and so forth. In short, he has pulled out almost all the flags that can be set in movies and games in one go.

If something like this happens again, Fang Zheng can only say it was God's will.

The same goes for the corpse of the magic crow. Although Tina could also bring it back, according to Fang Zheng's regulations, she still reported the matter as soon as possible - after all, with the Zerg network, there was no delay in reporting such a small matter.

Fang Zheng responded quickly.

"I'll be there soon."

Not long after, Fang Zheng and Nymph arrived at the scene. After seeing the corpse of the demon crow in front of him, he frowned.

Fang Zheng was sure that this kind of wound was definitely not caused by his weapons, although if it was accidental, one or two such wounds would not be a problem. But now, as Tina reported, the body of this demon crow was covered with such triangular wounds, which was a problem.

If anything, it was as if this demon crow had been hit by an anti-aircraft gun or similar weapon that fired triangular bullets.

"Nymph, what are the results of the examination?"

Thinking of this, Fang Zheng looked at the little angel beside him, and Nymph nodded.

"According to the scan results, the wound of this demon crow has traces of burns and a weak residual radioactive reaction. It should be left by some kind of energy attack."

"What's wrong? Is there a problem?"

Seeing this, Wells beside him couldn't help but ask curiously. At first, he didn't think it was a big deal when he saw the corpse of the magic crow. He just watched from the side because he was worried about Tina being here alone. But what the old paladin didn't expect was that not long after that, Fang Zheng also came here, and seemed to be quite concerned about the corpse of the magic crow in front of him. This made Wells realize that something was wrong, so he hurriedly asked.

Facing Wells' question, Fang Zheng also raised his head and looked at him.

"Sir Wells, you know the most about these Chaos monsters. Could you please take a look and see if there is any difference between this demon crow and the monsters you know?"

"Hmm? What's wrong with this demon crow?"

Hearing Fang Zheng's words, Wells walked up to the body of the Demon Crow. He wanted to reach out and pick up the body, but seeing that Fang Zheng and others were cautiously keeping a distance from the body, Wells did not do anything. He just stared at the body of the Demon Crow in front of him for a moment, and then let out a soft "Huh".

"how so?"

"What's wrong?"

Looking at the old paladin's eyes, Fang Zheng asked hurriedly.

"There is no aura of chaos in this corpse!"

This time, Wells stretched out his hand without hesitation and aimed it at the body of the Demon Crow in front of him. Then he closed his eyes. Soon, Fang Zheng and others saw dazzling holy light burst out from Wells' hand and hit the body. However, after the light faded, the body of the Demon Crow remained unchanged.

"...Can I ask you what's going on?"

"That's right."

At this time, Wells' expression became much more serious and solemn. He turned his head to look at Fang Zheng, and then explained to them word by word.

"You all should know that the so-called demon beasts are actually wild beasts that have been corrupted by the power of chaos. After they mutate, the power of chaos will always exist in their bodies. Even if these monsters die, the same is true. If they are not dealt with in time, the chaotic power in the corpses of these chaotic monsters will also pollute this land."

"That's why you collected those bodies and burned them."

Hearing this, Fang Zheng suddenly realized that after each battle, he would find that the paladins would collect the corpses of monsters on the battlefield and burn them. At that time, Fang Zheng did not think much about it and just thought that they were preventing plague or something. Now it seems that he thought too simply.

"We must purify their bodies, otherwise it will cause damage to this land."

Wells spread his hands and frowned.

"But... there is no trace of Chaos Aura in the body of this Demonic Crow. This doesn't make sense at all."

"Holy light should be able to purify the power of chaos."

Fang Zheng had seen the priests of the temple treat the injured paladins from chaos attacks more than once. Their holy light could clear the power of chaos attached to the wounds, so he did not think it was strange.

But Wells obviously didn't see it that way.

"That's not the case, Master Fang Zheng. That's because the power of chaos hadn't penetrated into the body at that time, but only stayed on the surface. If the soul is corrupted by the power of chaos, even a devil will inevitably fall. At that time, even the holy light used to dispel the power of chaos will cause great harm to it or even destroy it."

Having said that, Wells also pointed to the corpse of the magic crow in front of him.

"Take this corpse for example. If there was even a trace of the power of chaos in its body, then it should have been completely reduced to ashes under the shining of my holy light just now. However, it did not react at all..."

"So what you mean is... before this demon crow died, the chaotic aura in its body was cleared?"

Hearing Wells' words, Fang Zheng also showed an incredible expression.

"Is this kind of thing possible?"

"It is impossible with the technology of our temple, but..."

Having said this, Knight Commander Wells hesitated.

"But... according to the scriptures, the Goddess of Order once restored sanity to some monsters that were corrupted by Chaos..."

“…”

Fang Zheng also fell silent at this moment. Indeed, as Wells said, if the book was not a fantasy novel but reality, then the Goddess of Order must have some skills to fight against chaos and even purify it. After all, according to the records in the book, before the Goddess of Order came, the world was shrouded in chaos. So the humans living in this world would certainly be corroded by chaos and could not be as pure as white lotus.

If the holy light of the Goddess of Order also attacks the Temple indiscriminately, then the entire continent would be devastated in an instant...

"Tina."

Thinking of this, Fang Zheng turned and looked at Tina beside him.

"You just said that when you first discovered this magic crow, it was still flying, right?"

"Yes, Brother Fang Zheng."

Tina also nodded.

"I am sure that the demon crow was still flying at that time, but it seemed that it could no longer fly..."

With such a serious injury, even if the injury was not fatal, it was only a matter of time before he died. This was not surprising. So...

"Tina, activate the detector."

Fang Zheng looked toward the dark land in the distance and gave the order.

“We need to see what’s ahead.”
