"Although the temple guards have received blessings early on, the corpses are unlikely to turn into zombies... But now we can only think that something bad happened to them..." The acolyte showed grief, "In short, Pastor Weiwei, please let them rest in peace I hope you can leave them a complete body, and the temple will investigate the reason."
At present, some gang members who have made friends with the Temple of Dawn are fighting those zombies on the old house road to prevent them from harming passers-by. Their skin is dark red, and they show agility and strength that ordinary zombies do not have. Obviously, they are zombies of the nether hound version. .
"Understood, I'll go now."
The situation is urgent, even if you want to rent a carriage to cross the complicated streets, it may be too late.
Unlike the last time the zombies were controlled in a closed warehouse, these four zombies attacked passers-by on the street this time. The casualties are not known yet, but if someone is killed by the Nether Hound, their claws will carry food. Ghoul Fever turns the victim's corpse into a new Netherhound.
If there are other priests in the temple who can be transferred, it is definitely not Weiwei's turn to do this task. If it is not handled properly, other temples or even churches and altars with a smaller scale may steal the limelight and take the opportunity to harvest People's adoration.
Weiwei quickly discussed with Shanela, and the elf girl was happy to serve as a "mount" temporarily. She put her head under Weiwei's crotch and got up again, and Weiwei was mounted on the elf ocean horse.
……
When Vivi arrived at the scene riding on Shanela's neck, she saw gang members blocking both ends of the street and fighting with zombies, and the number of zombies had expanded to an astonishing twenty or so.
At present, the entire old house road has been used by gangsters to form roadblocks at the intersections on both sides of the road. If it is just ordinary zombies, these roadblocks will definitely play a role in hindering them, but for these hunched up like lickers in Resident Evil, they can break through the walls But it is no more than a decoration for fast crawling zombies.
The reason why these zombies did not ignore the obstruction of the gang members and leave here to attack civilians, Wei Wei felt that it had something to do with the young people on both sides of the front who were self-mutilating and bleeding.
They even smeared blood on themselves from time to time. Under the temptation of strong bloody stimulation, the zombies of the nether hounds were full of desire to tear the living in front of them.
As Klein said, the hounds of the lower realm possess terrifying hunting skills. Even though these are just zombies, they still display the ability to organize tactical attacks. It is very rare for the gang members to hold their defenses.
The two were on the roof of the building on the old house road. Weiwei wanted to come down to facilitate Shanela's shooting, but Shanela stopped her on the grounds that she was "responsible for your safety".
If it wasn't for Shanela's constant licking of her ankles and drawing circles with her tongue along the way, Weiwei would have believed it.
Although there was a person riding on her head, Shanela bent her bow and set her arrows, but she was not affected at all. She shot a shower of arrows, and just a few breaths solved the group of Netherhound zombies.
But in this rain of arrows, those gang members who were struggling to support the front just now were unscathed.
"This is the end?"
Instantly freed from the frequent attacks of the horrific red-skinned zombies, the sweaty gang thugs couldn't believe that the reinforcements solved these troublesome red-skinned zombies so lightly.
Although they have an advantage in number, the terrible stench emitted by those zombies makes it impossible for the general gang to even stand upright, so only the top thugs in the gang can gather here to barely hold on and wait for the support from the Shrine of Dawn.
The zombies wearing the temple-style chain armor were very conspicuous. Weiwei quickly saw them among the fallen corpses, and Shanela thoughtfully did not smash them directly.
At this time, the gang members standing on the street called Weiwei to come down and talk.
After coming to the ground, Shanela finally let go of Weiwei under Weiwei's strong request.
……
After a brief inquiry about the situation, I learned that these gang members belonged to a gang called the "Hero Gang".
When one of their members passed by Fruit Knife Alley, he heard screams for help and screams from a house, and he rushed in immediately to save people. When he saw red-skinned zombies slaughtering the residents inside, the member hurriedly led them to take refuge.
The zombies chased them all the way to Jiuzhai Road, which is the site of the Heroes Gang. Members called for help, and many thugs of the Heroes Gang rushed out to fight the zombies.
But soon they discovered that these zombies were so powerful that they were about to face the crisis of extinction, so they quickly sent pigeons to ask for help from the Temple of Dawn.
A gang thug who was still wearing a short vest in the withered moon explained the situation to Vivi:
"Among the residents who were hunted down, there was an old lady who had a handicap and was carried by the brother all the time. In the end, she and the brother survived, and everyone else was killed by those fast red-skinned zombies... …Soon he also turned into a zombie, the transformation was very quick, almost the moment he was bitten to death, he transformed..."
So fast?
According to the knowledge Klein narrated, Weiwei remembers that after being killed by Ghoul Fever, it will take at least a few minutes for the corpse to turn into a zombie. Just turn into a normal zombie.
How could it directly become a Nether Hound given power by the Lady of the Dead?
Judging from yesterday's warehouse zombie incident to the current incident, the ghoul fever carried by these zombies is far more terrifying than usual. Not only does it transform extremely quickly after death, it even directly transforms into a nether hound.
"Are these zombies hurting anyone else? Are these zombies all there?"
"Don't worry, they all died here. Thanks to that elf girl, except for a few unlucky passers-by, only members of our gang were injured. They have been arranged to go to the temple for treatment later."
Those passers-by also turned into zombies and died under Shanaila's arrows.
"Where is that old lady now? I want to see her."
Fruit Knife Lane, the old lady, Wei Wei guessed that this was probably Mrs. Xue Jinsi.
"It was arranged by us to rest, and I will take you there."
He was taken into an old house on the side of the street by thugs, and in a quiet room, he saw an old woman who was still in shock. It turned out to be Mrs. Xue Jinsi.
As soon as she saw Weiwei, her trembling body calmed down as if she had found a backbone, and she walked slowly back and forth, sobbing and crying.
Alas, after going through so much, I hope the old lady will not suffer from too much stimulation and become ill.
Weiwei sympathized with the poor old man, and comforted her over and over again in a gentle tone. Before she got the second-ring magic spell to calm her mind, she could only use her own words and actions to comfort the weak. Weiwei faintly felt that it was a bit contrary Harmony, something seems wrong... nothing wrong at all.As soon as the suspicion in her heart arose, it disappeared naturally.
Shanella frowned slightly, and kept looking at Xue Jinsi while he was speaking.
She stared closely at this old woman who seemed to be showing her true feelings, and quietly used detection magic to try to find the flaw.
Just like yesterday, this is a frail and ordinary elderly female human being in the magical field of vision.
She must be in disguise, but I can't see the clue at the moment, but...
Still unable to see the clues, Shanela also began to doubt her intuition yesterday, and her heart was full of hesitation and contradictions.
Yesterday, Shanela was driven by intuition to directly kill the old woman, but Shanela still couldn't find a reason to do it. After all, this is not a wild place where lawlessness is allowed, and the consequences must be considered.
Her intuition is far from reaching the level of prophecy school magic, it is just an intuitive feeling based on the current situation, and she is also thinking about why this intuition came about yesterday.
No matter how Sanella observed this old woman, she couldn't see anything wrong with it. On the surface, she was an old man living alone with a little money and well-maintained.
Listening to the old man's complaints, Vivi was able to restore the whole picture of the incident from Mrs. Scherkins' intermittent words after a while.
Mond came back late at night yesterday, but he has been sullen.
This appearance made Mrs. Sherkins think that he had lost his job again, so she tried to comfort him and advised him to have a good rest, but Mund said nothing, and did not say a word to Mrs. Sherkins.
At this time, there were a lot of ulcers on Mond's body, and there were large dark red spots on his neck and arms.
When Mrs. Sherkins went to visit Mond with a well-prepared breakfast the next day, Mond locked the door and refused to go out.
The old woman who was worried that he would be overwhelmed and rejoined the gang wrote to Weiwei.
So the temple guards arrived at the old woman's house in the afternoon to take Mond away, but they didn't get any response after calling for a while.
After forcibly breaking through the door, waiting for the temple guards was already a skinny red-skinned monster drooling...
"Woooooh, my good Mond, why did he suddenly become a monster..."
"And my lovely tenants, besides going to work in the afternoon, there are two who went to the temple to help me raise donations, and those unemployed good guys are almost dead... What did they do wrong?"
The old woman was very sad and cried very sadly, and Weiwei couldn't help sighing when she heard it.
At first, Weiwei thought it was the water source or food in the Knife Gang's gang residence that was the source of infection, but no one from the Knife Gang showed corresponding symptoms except Mond. no problem.
And Mond's turning into a zombie also shows that ghoul fever is indeed spreading quietly throughout Little Prodigal Street, and the top priority must be to find the source of the infection as soon as possible.
If this contagious ghoul fever could directly turn dead patients into nether hounds, then Anda City would be on the verge of crisis now.
Weiwei patted the old woman's back, took out a handkerchief to wipe away the tears from her swollen eyes, and asked softly: "Ma'am, do you know where Mr. Mond works?"
Since Mond's infection with ghoul fever has nothing to do with the water source of the Knife Gang, and he hasn't returned to his rental house for a while, we can only investigate from his place of work.
The old woman shook her head: "Mond suddenly approached me two days ago to borrow my lover's old suit. He only said that he had found a serious job. He was in a hurry to go out, so I knew it was an office worker. Work, the salary is about 23 gold coins a month."
That range is huge.
If it is an office worker, there are many large and small companies in Anda City now, and other employees such as official departments can also be classified as "sitting in an office". Weiwei urgently needs a reminder.
She continued to ask without giving up: "Can you think about it again, when you chat, you should often talk about each other's work, right? Or did you receive a letter after successfully applying?"
The old woman thought for a while and said, "Mond hasn't come back for two days before this, I don't know if there is anything you're looking for in his room."
"okay, I get it"
Weiwei said a few more words of comfort, and after inquiring about the location of Mond's room, she was going to take Shanela to Gate 59 to find clues in Mond's room.
"Little Weiwei..."
Mrs. Scherkins stopped Vivi.
She looked at Wei Wei pitifully: "I rent out the house just to make fun of it, but now that this incident happened, many of my tenants are dead... Sigh, the rest of the tenants will probably quit the lease soon, At that time, only me, a widowed old man, will be left..."
Mrs. Xuekins was in tears, and after wiping away her tears, she begged: "You are a good boy, if you feel sorry for me, come and chat with me every afternoon, will you be with me?"
Seeing the old lady's lonely appearance, Weiwei subconsciously wanted to agree, but a warning sign suddenly appeared in her heart.
Little Prodigal Son Street is the chaotic area in Anda City second only to the tiefling gathering area...
Even if you are afraid of loneliness, you should realize that it is not appropriate to invite a young girl to come here frequently.
Maybe the other party has considered that as a priest, he doesn't need to worry about the harassment of street hooligans in terms of force, or maybe the old man is just too scared so he didn't think about it...
Weiwei thought of many possibilities, but this time she couldn't easily convince herself that Mrs. Xuekins in front of her was a good person.
Thinking of Shanela's hostility from time to time, Wei Wei couldn't help but raise her vigilance.
The elf girl's intuition may not be without reason.
"This..." Weiwei refused with an apologetic face, and said bluntly, "I'm sorry Ma'am, because my family members are worried about my safety, they actually don't allow me to leave the temple. It's thanks to me that I can perform the tasks of the temple. I have Elder Sister Shanela to protect me, if you are lonely, you can come to the temple to find me at any time."
The old woman couldn't help complaining: "Isn't it my legs and feet that are inconvenient, besides, I am a lonely old man walking on the street, what if I am robbed?"
"Since you are afraid of being lonely, why don't you ask a servant to take care of you?" Before Weiwei could speak, Shanela asked coldly.
Xue Jinsi glared at Shanella angrily: "To put it lightly, do you really think I'm rich?"
The old woman looked at Weiwei again, this time she didn't speak any more, but kept wiping away her tears, her lips moved.
Fuck, old lady, why are you crying at me?
The offensive of tears did play a certain role. The pitiful appearance of the old lady made it hard for Weiwei to refuse directly. Although Weiwei also felt a little weird, the old lady did nothing wrong.
Moreover, the other party has just endured intense grief, and it is normal for him to become dependent on him now.
She was thinking about the words of Che Jilu, thinking about how to tactfully refuse without further provoking the old man, but at this moment she suddenly found that she had been hugged by the princess by Shanela.
"Eh? Sister Shanela, this old man will feel very uncomfortable, she..."
Shanela found a ball of warm cloth from nowhere and stuffed it into Weiwei's mouth.
"Ohh Ohh ohh!"
The elf girl ignored the girl's struggle and hugged her away, and accidentally turned around to find that the old woman was still in place.
Mrs. Xue Jinsi's face was slightly ferocious under the interlacing of light and shadow, but in the next moment she became innocent and lonely again.
The elf girl narrowed her eyes.
I really want to follow my intuition and kill you directly.

Chapter 117 Chapter 114 The Two Mrs. Scherkins
Gate 59, Fruit Knife Lane.
Due to the tragedy just now, the neighborhood seemed a little quiet. A strong man boldly pushed open the window and watched upstairs. There were still some internal organs left on the street, and the trails of blood trailed a massacre.
Both the zombies that caused the carnage and the zombies that the victims' corpses turned into have fallen.
The door was not closed, and it was deformed, as if it had been forced open from the inside out.
Shanela stood in front of Weiwei, looking at the house with green eyes, taking out various spell-casting materials from her spell-casting material bag from time to time.
Citrine, crow's eye, yew leaf...
This time she specially brought a bunch of magic for detection, from the detection magic of the first ring to the detection of threats at the third ring, she couldn't believe her instinct was unreasonable.
"The silent observer of the world, the noisy dead man named Destiny..."
"Show my eyes the folds of the magic net..."
