Alien Knights

Chapter 654: The plague struck (3)

When Ackerman jumped from the back of the Griffon to the ground, what appeared before his eyes was a temporary position built on the street of the port.

Overlapped sandbags blocked the entire street from leaking, and towering sentry towers kept sounding piercing alarms.

Ackerman looked back at the panic-stricken Parni, waved to let her go to rest first, and walked towards the military camp inside.

Buried in front of his desk, Alfonso, who was checking the map of the city, glanced at Ackerman who was coming, did not speak, but quickly wrote down a warrant and handed it to the herald next to him.

"Tell those who are unwilling to board the ship, Dragon Kingdom will not provide them with asylum, and they can leave freely."

Alfonso finished dealing with the matter at hand, turned his head to Ackerman, and whispered: "As a commander, you should not leave your army."

Ackerman sighed: "I won't be anymore soon..."

"As long as you haven't left this position for a day, you must stick to your post." Alfonso said sternly: "You should know what the black plague is?"

Ackerman reacted: "Wait a minute, what's the matter with these rats?"

"A week ago, successive torrential rains destroyed the sewer dam of Taero City. We believe that these plague rats came out of the city in this way." Alfonso said while knocking on the map, "In order to avoid the cold air in the north. These groups of rats followed the ditches, streams and underground caves all the way south to the Duchy of Duchy."

"They first lurked underground in the city, and when the sea was high tide, they all rushed to the ground again."

Alfonso paused for a while and said to Ackerman: "Your Majesty has previously ordered that the Crusaders, Knights, and Exotics are not allowed to act alone in the Duchy, do you remember?"

Ackerman nodded: "I still remember, but I thought his intention was to speed up everyone's evacuation..."

Alfonso beckoned, motioning for the other party to follow him.

With doubts, Ackerman followed the footsteps of the knight, walked out of the room, walked through the crowd, and finally came to the door of a warehouse built near the port.

Looking at the busy fleet of people and supplies on the ocean in the distance, Ackerman asked strangely: "What are we doing here? Shouldn't we go to the front to help at this time?"

Alfonso motioned for the guards to open the warehouse gate, and then walked in.

The huge warehouse has long been isolated into dozens of huge rooms, and in each room, there is a group of people in doctors' coats bustling around.

Ackerman was a little confused: "I never knew there was such a place here."

Alfonso showed his dragon-shaped badge, and then said: "Come in, just look at it later, make sure you don't touch anything with your hand."

Ackerman walked into the room and saw a metal operating bed lying flat in the center of the room, and an orc covered with black parasites was actually tied to the bed.

Going closer and observing carefully, the orc's limbs have been lost, leaving only the head and torso. The vital signs have long been gone, and it has become a plague zombie that has lost the ability to think.

"Bokanian, the captain of the sixth team of the Seventeenth Division of the Orc Corps of the Holy Cultist Army, was originally responsible for guarding the southwest exit of Tyrol City..."

Hearing Alfonso's words, Ackerman opened his eyes wide and suddenly said: "I am on the list of deaths, and I have never heard of this soldier's name!"

Alfonso signaled the doctors to continue working. He exited the room and said: "That's because your Majesty does not want the Crusaders to know about this. Therefore, some of the soldiers who died were recorded in the file as having other military affairs or missing."

"why?"

Alfonso pointed to the dragon-shaped badge on his chest and said: "During the battle with the black plague, some of the soldiers' souls did not return to the kingdom of heaven."

"Wait a minute! What did you say?!"

Alfonso said: "I repeat, anyone who died of the black plague has a certain chance that his soul will not reach the kingdom of heaven."

Ackerman was frightened in a cold sweat: "That is to say..."

Alfonso said as he walked forward: "If you and Parni died there just now, then your souls may be scattered and you will never reach the kingdom of heaven again."

Ackerman: "Why is this?"

Alfonso: "I don't know, the kingdom is studying, but there is no answer yet."

Leaving the operating area in the warehouse, Alfonso walked to a bunker gate and motioned for the guards to open the gate.

The steel door was opened by four knights wearing keel armor. Alfonso held the handle in one hand and the weapon in the other, carefully walking down the stairs.

Walking behind the knight, Ackerman asked in a low voice, "Where are we going?"

"At the instruction of your majesty, we have built an experimental area under the Duchy of Tokci."

"Experimental area?"

Alfonso flicked away the limbs of the parasite next to his ear, and continued: "During this time, we grabbed a large number of necromantic samples from Taero City and transported them here for research."

Ackerman was taken aback: "Duke Dokchi knows about this?"

"I don't know... In fact, not knowing some things is a kind of happiness for him."

Stepping on the ground of the underground experimental area, a metal reverberating sound came from under his feet, and Ackerman asked in a bit of surprise: "This ground...?"

"Not only the ground, but also the walls, isolation doors, and plywood. Most of the materials are made of iron." Alfonso walked through an iron door shortly and said: "Wooden boards, soil and stones are parasitic to the plague. For insects, it does not have much blocking effect."

Moving on, Ackerman saw a group of people wearing full body armor around the iron cage, nervously recording something.

Approaching a little closer, UU reading www.uukanshu.com Ackerman discovered that in the huge iron cage, many parasitic corpses infected by the plague were **** with iron chains.

Alfonso walked to one of the staff members and knocked on the latter's helmet: "According to the scheduled plan, start the clearing. Remember not to miss anything."

The staff nodded, turned around and began to greet their companions.

Ackerman: "What is this going to do?"

Alfonso: "We will leave here soon. According to your majesty's will, this experimental area will be destroyed and sealed off. Come here and take a look at this..."

Ackerman walked to the iron cage and found that the parasitic corpse inside was not the same as usual.

The parasites attached to the corpse are not ordinary black, but glow with a metallic color. When they collided together, they could still hear the sound of Tie Ge.

Alfonso: "These plague parasites have mutated."

"Mutations?"

"What you see before your eyes is a living example. When a foreign species with "metal skin" is infected by the plague, the abilities in his body will be transmitted to the parasites, so that the parasites also have corresponding abilities. "

Alfonso stared at the plague parasites with metal shells, and said anxiously: "Your Majesty guesses that the parasites can still share and copy abilities, but fortunately, this has not happened yet."

Ackerman felt that the brain couldn't turn around a bit: "You mean, these parasites can plunder the abilities of different species and transform them into their own abilities?"

"Yes, if a plague parasite has swallowed the flesh and blood of a foreign species, then it can possess the abilities of this foreign species. So far, not only the metal skin, but other things that have been discovered are power enhancement, speed enhancement, Plague parasites such as inflammation, division, colloid, deformation, mimicry, etc."
