Marasia pursed her lips slightly and shook her head.
"Your Majesty, it is just as you expected."
"We cleared so much area and we couldn't find a single living Hebrew."
When Lin Ke heard this, he just nodded slightly.
He had anticipated this.
It would be a small chance to find a living Hebrew.
After all, any clean water will immediately become a "source of infection" as soon as it falls on this polluted land.
All water that touches the ground is not drinkable.
But, you must drink water.
If there was a Hebrew villager who really managed to survive, he must have done so by relying on the water in his water bag and escaping from the monster's pursuit.
But if one can accomplish just one of these two, it would be incredible.
According to the information Lin Ke learned, many villagers had no idea there was any pollution.
The village where Elisha lived was considered to be relatively well-informed.
But even so, only Elisha survived.
Even if other villagers knew about the pollution, they probably didn't take it seriously at all.
Otherwise, they would certainly accept Elisha's father's suggestion and leave.
But they didn't.
Lin Ke was thinking at this time, and Malacia paused and continued.
"It's just that, His Majesty the Holy Pharaoh."
“The pollution is so serious now, but the city of Hebron is closed and there are no strange sounds.”
"I saw this scene from a distance and didn't pay much attention to it because I was still troubled by the villagers' incident."
"But now that I think about it, I just find it weird."
"Pollution is rampant in the city of Hebron. Shouldn't the city gates be opened wide and the people in the city be evacuated when the monster appears?"
"But I didn't see a large group of monsters near Hebron. In the area I occupied, I didn't see monsters gathering at other gates of Hebron."
"This is enough to show that all the city gates are closed."
"The lord of Hebron did not allow a single civilian to escape from it."
After listening to Marasia's words, Lin Ke frowned slightly.
He opened the civilization panel, but all that was displayed on it were the health bars of the city and the city walls.
But he couldn't observe whether there was anyone in the city for the time being.
But for some reason, Lin Ke felt his heart tighten slightly.
The other party’s failure to open the city gate is naturally part of their “plan”.
It wasn't that the incident happened suddenly and there was no time to come up with a countermeasure.
You know, even if the pollution happened suddenly, that is, most of the people in the city turned into monsters in an instant, there were still quite a few people who were able to go to the city gate and open it.
But the city gate was closed?
"What else did you observe on the city wall?"
Lin Ke just continued to ask, and Malacia answered immediately without any hesitation.
"Your Majesty, the Holy Pharaoh, the area we occupy is lower than the city wall, and we can only see part of the situation around Hebron."
"But I can be sure that there are not only no soldiers but also no monsters on the walls of Hebron."
"So, now that I think about it, it's even more strange."
Lin Ke nodded. He then realized that attacking the city might just fall into some kind of "trap" set by the enemy.
If he does not choose to attack the city, Lin Ke will have to find a way to control the city of Hebron.
Of course, the control mentioned here means that this city is at least under Lin Ke's control.
Otherwise, even if Lin Ke cleared all the monsters around Hebron City, Hebron City would not be safe for Lin Ke.
The city of Hebron is one of the roads leading to Jerusalem, and for the army of the Holy Egyptian Alliance, this city is a "nail" on the road between Jerusalem and the fortress city.
If they cannot control or occupy Hebron, Linke's Holy Egyptian Alliance army will find it difficult to advance.
Firstly, he was not clear about the situation in the city of Hebron. It was very likely that a large number of monsters had gathered there, but they could not be observed for the time being.
Secondly, if they ignore the city of Hebron and attack Jerusalem, the army of the Holy Egyptian Alliance will inevitably have to allocate part of its forces to monitor and besiege the city of Hebron.
But what if there is some powerful and terrifying creature in the city of Hebron?
Even thinking of the worst case scenario, what if it breaks through the siege and comes to support Jerusalem?
The Holy Egyptian Alliance might even face the risk of being attacked from both sides.
But Lin Ke now has no way of understanding the situation in Hebron City.
If Lin Ke wants to find out the news clearly, he will probably need to spend more time to check it one by one and find out clearly.
Obviously, this can buy a lot of time for the other party.
Lin Ke even began to suspect that the other party was using some kind of "smokescreen" to buy more time for some kind of "plan" of theirs.
Not only that, Lin Ke even felt that there might really be people with "royal blood" in the city of Hebron.
That person has probably been killed by now and used by "it".
"It" refers to the "big devil" that caused the pollution.
"Report! His Majesty the Holy Pharaoh!"
"Your Majesty the Holy Pharaoh, we are back!"
At this moment, the leaders of the Holy Egyptian Alliance led some warriors back to Lin Ke.
Compared with the army led by Malacia, their troops suffered some casualties.
However, the number is not large.
After all, Lin Ke sent the [Marianu Chariot Shooters] to follow them.
Once Lin Ke discovers the enemy on the civilization panel, he will immediately use [Marianu Chariot Shooter] to launch a long-range attack, which can even provide the exact location to the soldiers who are unaware of the monster's movements.
But even so, they still suffered casualties.
This is enough to show that those monsters are much stronger than ordinary soldiers.
And Lin Ke had already asked the same question.
But the answer he got was...
"No, Your Majesty the Holy Pharaoh."
"We didn't find any living Hebrews."
"In those places, even the trees can stretch out their hands and hit people. I'm afraid that any Hebrews who managed to escape from the village would die on the road."
Lin Ke nodded. He felt that it was probably impossible to continue searching for a living Hebrew in this land.
Perhaps, he could only ask Elisha again.
But the other party was just a child and was frightened. Lin Ke was not sure that the information he got from him would be correct.
And at this moment, Nan Tong's eyes suddenly lit up.
"magic!"
