Started from practicing sword in the countryside of the second dimension

"I have some impression of this, but why would I bring this out at a time like this?"

As for this statue, there were several people present who remembered its existence.

However, it seems that it is only a memory, and no one has a definite answer as to what this thing is used for.

But Dr. Eureka certainly didn't take out this statue just to show off.

"Listen, although what I said is unbelievable, it is true... just put this statue in the cage, and then the fish will go in like crazy."

"Uh, it sounds like this sculpture has some special abilities."

"It really is... Don't disbelieve it. No matter how this thing makes me feel or what I remember, it reminds me of it here."

"Ahem... ahem, listen carefully. As long as we put a statue like this in a cage and soak the cage in water, everything else can be written off for now."

"Eh? Even Jeff said that?"

"So this is feasible, right?"

Compared to doctors in small clinics who they only visit when they are sick, the locals actually trust Jeff a little more.

And since even Jeff specifically mentioned this, the others finally believed it.

"But why would such a statue have such an effect?"

"Who knows."

“I always feel like there should be other uses.”

"Speaking of what the prototype of this statue is, it's hard to tell what it is with eyes on its hands."

"I don't know. Most people wouldn't care about this."

Although supplies in the town are beginning to show signs of shortage, there seems to be no problem at the moment.

Others, though amazed at their catch, were more amazed at what they said was the capacity of a cage to be filled with just one statue.

"If anyone doesn't believe me, then come with me and you can see the moment when the cage is filled with fish."

After hearing what Jeff said, a large group of people began to walk towards the coast.

"Hmm? Aren't you going to go and see it?"

"I don't think Jeff would lie, and I'm more concerned about something else."

"Another thing?"

The man who spoke did not give a detailed description, but took a step closer to the shelved catch.

"Sure enough, other things are fine, but this kind of fish can't grow in this area at all... Where on earth are you catching fish from?"

Although the statue in the cage was gone, all the catches inside were still there, and after careful identification, the man took out a fish that looked only slightly different in shape from the others, and asked in confusion.

"what?"

Unable to identify the species of fish, Jeff scratched his head and made a confused sound.

Chapter 291 Famine

This food crisis is more severe and lasts longer than anyone imagined.

The most intuitive manifestation is that not a drop of rain has fallen from the sky for nearly half a year.

The land outside the town began to dry up and crack over time.

Even though the townspeople initially had the idea of ​​rescuing food grown outside, as the drought progressed.

People's daily drinking water has become unavailable, so they have to abandon crops that are still in the growth stage.

In addition, residents of the town also found that there were constantly outsiders fleeing to the town because of famine.

As the population increased, the number of times food was obtained from the sea began to gradually increase. Originally, when food was sufficient, it might only be once every few weeks, but later it became once every few days.

Now that other ways of obtaining food have almost disappeared, those people have begun to go to the beach regularly every day to get fish.

However, as the townspeople ate the catch longer, strange things began to happen.

"This is God's flesh, this is God's blood, what on earth are you asking us to eat? Throw it away, throw it away now!!!"

At noon one day, when Dr. Eureka and others were distributing the caught fish to the townspeople according to recent practice.

One of the townspeople suddenly had a mental breakdown while holding a still-jumping fish, and rushed towards Dr. Eureka, who was completely unprepared, howling.

"Well…………"

Dr. Eureka was knocked to the ground by the impact, and the things in his hands fell all over the floor.

"Doctor, doctor?! Stop it right now, you bastard!"

"Another crazy person. There are more and more of them recently."

"But it seems that all the crazy ones are outsiders."

Several people around Eureka immediately stepped forward, subdued the crazy townsman, and together with the town sheriff, took him to the town’s prison.

The others looked at each other, but after hesitating for a moment, they immediately took food from Dr. Eureka again as if nothing had happened.

"I guess it's because of the monotonous diet. There are too many people who have mental problems due to stress recently."

On the side, Mayor Del scratched his head, unable to determine what had caused these people to behave abnormally.

"The situation is a bit bad. If the weather continues like this, there will be more refugees coming to our town."

Next to Mayor Del, Jeff estimated the number of refugees coming from other places, his eyelids twitched, and he realized that something was wrong.

At the current rate of growth, their small town would find it difficult to accommodate so many homeless and food-starved refugees.

"Do you guys really know what you are eating? Shut up, everything will be irreversible if you eat this kind of thing."

"Don't move!"

"Tie his hands with ropes."

"Listen, listen carefully, to the wailing of the so-called food in your hands."

The guy who was carried out was still screaming wildly.

But until his figure completely disappeared, no one paid attention to the direction he disappeared, mainly because this was not the first time he had behaved like this.

In addition to this person, there are other people similar to him who say similar things and everyone is used to it.

"If we don't eat this, what will you let us eat?"

As the man was being taken away, someone on the side of the road muttered something quietly and took a fish that was being distributed to him.

The current situation here is not a question of what they should eat, but a question of what they can eat.

Anyone with eyesight could see that there was something wrong with the catch.

After all, how could it be possible that the catch for the entire town could be so lucky that enough fish could be caught every day for everyone to survive.

"Why hasn't it rained for such a long time? What on earth happened?"

"Who knows? I only know that our troubles are increasing."

"Please let me go. I don't want to deal with those troubles anymore."

Several people took the madman to the nearest area.

This area used to imprison the insane is actually just some shoddy houses built on the coast.

It's the kind that barely creates a contour, but is leaking everywhere.

After all, although these people are spouting all kinds of alarmist remarks, they are not hurting anyone. They are just repeating some weird words.

Just ensure their survival, the rest is up to you.

If they change their minds, it's no problem to put it back.

After all, if they weren't harassing others and saying a lot of weird things.

No one could come to the decision to tie up their companions.

"Hey, that seems a bit strange."

"What's wrong?"

The townspeople who were escorting several people arrived at the place. Just as they were about to open the iron gate at the entrance to push the new companions inside in, they suddenly felt something was wrong and began to observe this "house" carefully.

"It's not an illusion... There are fewer holes in the wall."

"A hole? Hmm, it really is... Could it be that those people are beginning to regain their sanity?"

"............Those people just have some strange ideas, but they are not irrational."

"It's all the same."

Because it was a shabby house with crude construction, there were many holes in it.

But this time when the madman was escorted here, many of the holes here were gone, replaced by some ordinary people who looked like they were covered by something.

"It should be those guys inside who did it... But seriously, if they have the idea to handle this kind of thing, why can't they restrain themselves?"

One of the escorts put his head close to a small hole that had not yet been completely blocked, and looked inside with his eyes open.

A ‘swish’ sound.

On the other side of the small hole, a pair of bloodshot eyes stared at him.

"Alas?!!!"

This ordinary guy saw this sudden incident and instantly let out a rare scream in his life, which scared everyone else.

"You shouldn't, you shouldn't eat this anymore... You shouldn't, you shouldn't."

On the other side of the small hole, the owner of the bloodshot eyes began to talk incessantly again.

But this time the townsman didn't listen and he kept in mind what others said.

Don't care, don't pay attention, after throwing this time into the room, don't pay attention, and close the door that will be thrown into their companions.

But there is one strange thing, when facing ordinary people, these weird guys will try to talk to them first.

But when facing their own kind, it was as if they had telepathy. They seemed to know each other's identities, but they had never confirmed this with each other.

Chapter 292 Spreading Like Mold

"strangeness…………"

Although the matter was already over, one of them suddenly had doubts.

"what happened?"

His companion was a little confused about what the other party was wondering about, so he asked casually.

"Didn't you notice that there are so many things in the room where they were locked up? I saw one of them seemed to be soaked in water."

"Huh? Soaked in water? How is that possible? You know what the house looked like before it was built. How could it be soaked in water?"

"And if there's water in there, then it can only be... Ugh, do you really think most people would let themselves soak in that kind of water?"

"Aren't they forced in because they are not ordinary people?"

"Uh...it seems to be true."

After a few people who felt something was wrong hesitated for a while, one of them stopped and found a relatively hidden place to move forward, ready to take another look to see what was going on inside.

But this time, the scene inside left the man stunned.

I don't know what these people did. The place should have been sealed off, but in the pool of sewage, a few fish were swimming happily among the people.

“It should have come through that ditch.”

Another person came closer and looked through the gap.

The first person who saw it had no idea how this place was built, but this person was the one who cut corners and made it.

Therefore, he knew that what looked like sewage over there was actually the entrance a short distance below.
