Warhammer Seal

Chapter 133 The culprit
"Young man, there is something wrong with this plague."

Shu Ye let out a long sigh, and then took another sip of tea.

"It seems that the mode of infection has been changed by humans. Compared with the traditional plague, it is obviously controlled by humans."

Pursing his lips, Lord Shu still had to tell Wende the bad news.

"The plague has mutated, and the time for me to develop the antidote will be greatly extended."

Just when Shuye, Wende and Ruixi were at a loss, the previous knight of the Kingdom knocked on the door and strode in.

"Yes, that's right, the doctor named Wen De is staying overnight in the humble house."

The one who pushed the door and walked in was none other than Ryan, the knight partner Wende met in Lustria and returned to Bretonnia together.

And the owner of the castle, the knight of the kingdom, cleared his throat and let everyone focus on him.

"There is one more thing that needs your help. The lake fairy said that the nobles infected with the plague must stay at home and not go out. I will temporarily give you the right to use the castle. The knight from the northern kingdom, Gonzana Lane."

Although the knight of the kingdom was arrogant and aloof, he had to say that he still had basic chivalry ethics. He locked himself in a room with food, water and toilets for self-isolation in accordance with the order of the fairy of the lake.

Now the control of the entire castle has been handed over to Ryan.

After all, this is a Bretonnian tradition. Not every knight in the kingdom will have an heir to inherit his title when he is about to go out to explore and find the Holy Grail.

Therefore, it is very common for knights to give each other fiefdoms and wealth.

Especially when I saw Ryan, who was only in his 20s, I knew that this guy was far from the age to find the Holy Grail.

It doesn't hurt to give him the title temporarily, but it's rare for me to be quiet for a few days. The young man named Wen De is right, I really should rest and recuperate.

In this way, Ryan actually took up the post of Knight of the Kingdom of Carcassonne on a part-time basis. Of course he was delighted, but all the joy came from meeting his old friend.

Immediately took out the things in his luggage, a pair of wrist guards and gloves.

When he went out on a chivalrous adventure, his father built a treasure with a lot of money, but now because of his different status, he can no longer wear it.

You can't put the valuable secret treasure in the cabinet at home to rust, no, it has become a gift for Wende.

Wende was also disrespectful, so he put it away immediately, and it was quite suitable after a try.

【Chivalrous Knight Bracers】

Melee Dodge Rate: +2
Troop Armor: +3
Now that the things have been delivered, it's time to talk about the plague in this city. The knight's sense of responsibility makes Ryan unable to stand idly by.

It just so happens that Lord Shu is also going to announce his discovery of the epidemic, and everyone can listen together.

But Master Shu's first words made everyone feel a little scared.

"That's right, this plague is man-made. I'm sure that someone has modified this plague so that it can kill humans more quickly."

"But this master, who would choose to be an enemy of mankind, and Carcassonne has not offended any other forces."

Wende is also actively making guesses.

Green skin?No, no, those guys' IQs are far from evolved to the level of biochemical warfare knowledge, and their genes also completely hate biochemical attacks.

Wood elves?No, it is true that they hate humans, but they prefer to hunt humans as prey instead of spreading the plague that they themselves hate.

empire?Unless Karl Franz is a doppelganger.

Tyrell and Estalia?No, these two countries have been plagued by the plague all year round, and they hate the plague, so they must not be suspects.

Ogres are very suspicious, but all ogres live in the dark place, and it is impossible to come all the way to Carcassonne.

After eliminating all the wrong answers, Wende and Ryan suddenly thought of a possible correct answer at the same time.

"vampire!"

"Wende, let's go to the cemetery immediately. If the bodies of those who died from the plague are gone, it means that the vampires did it!"

"Wait, get a vaccine first."

Lord Shu has also prepared an improved version of the vaccine, which can make the vaccinated person resistant to the plague. Although they cannot freely enter and leave the plague, it can also curb many of the plague's harm to the human body.

The plan is very clear, Master Shu will continue to stay behind and develop an antidote to the plague.

Wende and his party went out to find the culprit. If they could get the pathogen of the plague, they could greatly speed up the development of the antidote to the plague.

There is not much time left, only one week left.

The entire city has been plagued by the plague for a long time. After the nobles were infected, the situation between soldiers and civilians became even more dire.

There were no guards in the huge cemetery, and even the gravekeeper fell into the tomb.

Picking up the sledgehammer in his hand and hitting it hard, Ryan opened the way to the catacombs.

There are obvious traces of corpses being dragged on the ground, but it is not clear whether the corpses were transported or transported away.

"Wend! Come and see this, it seems that our guess is correct, it is indeed a plague brought by vampires!"

In the past, the huge underground space with hundreds of coffins was in a mess. Every coffin was destroyed by people, and only the relics of the dead were left inside, but there were no skeletons.

"The big thing is bad."

A lot of cold sweat flowed down Wende's forehead, and he was already leaning against the wall.

This is not the wild cemetery that you can see everywhere, this is the knight cemetery in Carcassonne.

The dead knights will be buried here to seek eternal peace. Among these knights, there are a large number of chivalrous knights, kingdom knights, and even the remains of two Holy Grails.

Now that they are all gone, they must have been dragged away by the tomb ghouls to gnaw their bones, but must have been turned into an army of vampires by the evil vampire mage using black magic and necromancy.

Black knights, and even skeleton blood knights.

However, the traces of being dragged on the ground are still very new, which means that the ceremony has not started yet, and the vampire's den must be found immediately.

If they were given time to cast spells, the Black Knights would become stronger and stronger, and the dead Bretonnian serfs and civilians would all be pulled up by necromantic magic, and Carcassonne would be powerless to defend.

If Wende, Ruixi, and Ryan don't act as soon as possible, the entire Carcassonne will become a place where vampire corruption spreads.

In that way, Carcassonne is to Bretonnia what Sylvania is to the Empire.

At this moment, even Ruixi didn't notice a figure appeared behind him, and the pistol in his hand was directly on Wende's waist.

"Robbery, money or life."

　In the absence of any equipment blessing, a vampire and a well-trained knight are also [-]-[-].

　　Don't be stupid to compete with vampires in melee combat ability, you don't need to talk about martial arts, just shoot them.
