MTL - Dawn of the Grey Tower-Chapter 64 1 corner

The cheese found Heather in the basement of the two-story building. And it is worth mentioning that the basement in this building is not a cellar used by ordinary people to store debris or store food, but like a private prison that has been specially modified. Even the access to the basement has to be opened by an organ hidden on the bookshelf. This made the mage have to doubt the owner's hobby before this building. But no matter who was the owner of this building, after the outbreak of the plague, he left all the towns of Zhuoliu with all his property for the first time, and this small building was taken over by the Knights of the Kingdom and became a captive Heather And the jail of the Hammer Knight who followed her back to Zhuoliu Town.

It stands to reason that Heather, as the cavalier chief of Duke Hammer, the first real lord of the Cangshi Kingdom, naturally no one dared to do anything rude to her. So in fact, the cheese did n’t worry about Heather ’s safety at the beginning. In his opinion, the most of the Kingdom Knights is to find a place to put the female knight under house arrest. They may even have to satisfy Heather in addition to being unable to move freely. Some personal needs, so as to ensure that in the future Grand Duke Hammer will not be angry after learning of this matter.

However, when the mage found the knight, Heather's condition was not good. No, perhaps it is not too bad to describe it as terrible. The original healthy body shrank because of the pain. Even Heather's blond hair lost the luster of the past like a withered grass stalk. Some small black spots could be seen on the skin of the knight's long exposed clothing. The cheese certainly knows what this represents.

"Are you infected?" Crouching down unscrupulously to lift up the knight who was curled up on the ground, the wizard's face was incredible. You must know that the cheese before the two can be guaranteed that Heather does not have any plague virus, and from the letter after the female knight, she should have not encountered the ratmen on the way to Zhuoliu Town. attack. So why is Heather infected with the plague?

"Come ... slightly ..." Hearing the familiar voice, Heather looked up and saw the person walking into the dungeon. She was surprised by the appearance of cheese, but just when she was excited to say something to the mage, she could not make any discernible voice in her throat.

Qi frowned, aphasia, so he called this symptom. This process of losing language ability is one of the signs that the plague has transformed the human body. The inability to speak means that Heather ’s vocal organs are changing from human to rat-human. In this process, her throat changes slowly like a fetus in the mother's abdomen, so although the completed rat can re-use human language under training, the person in the process of disease It doesn't work. This internal change predates the change in appearance, which is why Heather still looks normal. She hasn't been infected for a long time. Judging from the data collected by the cheese in the quarantine area, people who develop symptoms such as aphasia but have no obvious mutations will definitely not be infected for more than five days.

"Fortunately, the infection time is still very short, and it should be able to reverse the change." Simply checked Heather's physical condition, and the cheese determined that his current knowledge of the plague can cure the disease on the female knight, even he can reverse Catalyze the viruses and let them restore Heather's body and its mutated parts back.

Although he lost his language ability, Heather's hearing was obviously normal. Hearing that the mage said it could cure the plague on her body, the knight of the horse knight grabbed the cheese's clothes with excitement while waving the other hand towards the inside of the dungeon. Heather ’s closed room was at the entrance of the dark door. That is to say, when the cheese arrived in the dungeon, he immediately discovered the headwoman and had not explored other parts of the dungeon. Now it is not difficult to understand the cheese through Heather's body language. The head of the knight means that the other knights who came back with her should be locked in the depths of this dungeon.

"Are they also infected?" The mage asked.

Nodded vigorously, and Heather gave the cheese an affirmative answer, while the anxious expression on her face became stronger. It seems to be urging the mage to leave her alone, and quickly check the status of the other knights in the dungeon.

The brow of the cheese tightened even more, he comforted Heather softly, and then got up and walked deep into the dungeon. This basement is much larger than he thought. Even the mage guessed that its area had exceeded the ground. How is this going? A mansion with a small dungeon can also be understood as the special needs of the master, but looking at this posture, the basement seems to be much larger than it should be demanded. Although the top of the basement has lit candles for lighting at every other part, as the corridor extends, those candles cannot provide lighting in spaces with such poor air circulation.

Unconsciously, cheese has used the ability of night vision and temporarily stopped the body's need for breathing through some way. The gas contained in this space in this basement is not enough for a human to breathe. In the process of deepening, the cheese also saw other Hammer Knights, although they also have a noble identity in the outside world, but it is obvious that in front of the owner of this basement, their identity is not enough. Heather preserved their lives like that. The knights were cruelly hung on the iron hooks on the wall like winter bacon ~ www.novelbuddy.com ~ Judging from the state of their bodies, they were all infected by the rat plague before they were born, and they also made a difference Degree of variation. Their bodies did not decay under this hypoxic environment, which allowed the cheese to carefully examine the cause of their death.

Strangely, none of these knights seemed to be traumatized or plagued by themselves. They seemed to have died from a potion unknown to the mage, and the formula of this potion continued to change from the marks of different knights. There was a strange sense of oppression in the heart of the cheese. Seeing that these knights were hung on the iron hooks with a broken body, he realized that the people who killed these knights were probably doing the same thing as him-finding the plague Antidote. However, unlike the mage, the other party obviously has not received in-depth training of the gray tower, so the understanding of the plague is still only at the level of ordinary diseases. No matter who is studying them, he is not aware of the so-called ratmen The essence of plague is a curse that can continue to spread.

At the end of the underground corridor, the cheese found a separate room, which is already a place that normal humans can never reach. Even if you run at full speed, ordinary people can never go so deep without breathing. Oxygen zone. The door of the room was unlocked, and the mage pushed open the thin wooden door carefully, and then it appeared to him an ordinary study room. On the table in the room there is an unfolded note that seems to record something. Despite the ability to have night vision, the cheese still needs to be very close to see the text on the note. After reading the contents of this note, the mage felt a tumult of coolness flowing from behind. He seemed to have caught a corner of the truth about this plague. But it was just a corner to peek at the whole incident. The cheese also felt a heartfelt fear.
