Chapter 719 Soul Loss Disease

  When Duanmuhuai returned to Arkham City, everything was still in order.

  The only thing to say is...

   "Mysterina, what the **** are those people outside?"

  After Duanmuhuai returned to the city, the first thing he did was to find Misterina and ask her questions.

When returning to Arkham City, the first thing Duanmuhuai saw was the long line outside the gate of the territory, which made him quite puzzled. You must know that the world of Faerun is already the world of deep winter. A group of people are not afraid of being frozen to death when they come here idle and bored?

"Ah, I was just about to report to you, Lord Judge, that a curse called Losing Souls is currently prevalent in the entire Northland, and those... are all refugees fleeing. In fact, this is not the same as your lord. It has something to do with it."

   "Dementia? What? What does it have to do with me?"

  Hearing Misterina's inquiry, Duanmuhuai looked puzzled, and Misterina also quickly introduced the situation to Duanmuhuai.

It turned out that after Duanmu Huai killed the messenger of the true God and the base, he shared this matter with the various churches in Arkham City. Let the local police stations pay attention to whether there are similar cases in their jurisdictions.

  Let’s not talk about evil gods like Shar for the time being, and a kind-hearted **** like Tyre will naturally not ignore it. As a result, everyone looked down and was shocked. They always thought that this so-called supreme true **** might be a new cult that just emerged, but after careful investigation, everyone discovered that this sect had been lurking in the Northland for many years, and they had been spreading a cult called The curse of dementia.

To put it simply, people under this curse will become dizzy at first, and then it will be like losing their souls and leaving only an empty shell, then they will disappear, and then when they are found again, they will disappear They all joined that cult and became loyal believers of that sect.

For example, Emilia and Kasim also investigated this matter, and then at a farm outside Baldur's Gate, they learned from the local farmer's wife that her husband had encountered these mysterious things Guy, and then he starts to change, from a bright kid to an old man who looks like he has Alzheimer's, and then just disappears.

Then Amelia and the others traced all the way and found a stronghold of the Supreme True God nearby. To their surprise, the missing farmer had become a complete fanatic inside, and even became a stronghold there. an important member of

Of course, Amelia and her party subsequently defeated the cult stronghold, captured the farmer and others, and then escorted them to prison—but no matter how they were interrogated, the farmer would only repeat that he believed in the only true God. Will eventually eat the world or something...

  The reason why this symptom is called soul-lost disease is because after the examination of those priests and paladins, they were very surprised to find that there was no soul in these people, and their souls were completely missing!

   This is very strange.

  According to the theory, if the soul is destroyed, the body must be dead. If the soul is lost and the body is still alive, then it must be a necromantic creature. However, these people are not undead creatures, nor do they have the characteristics of undead creatures. On the contrary, their performance is almost the same as that of living people, except for the loss of souls and fanatical belief in the so-called supreme true god.

   "So what's the situation with so many people outside?"

"Why……"

   Speaking of this, Misterina sighed helplessly.

"I don't know why, but the results of the investigation were leaked. As a result, people everywhere are panicked. Many people are afraid of this terrible curse, and they think that this curse can be avoided in this territory protected by the gods. That's why I rushed to come here..."

   "Are there any patients with dementia in our territory?"

"No."

  Mysterina shook her head.

   "However, we found several soul-deprived patients among the immigrants, and they have been isolated. They are handed over to various temples for research and treatment plans."

   "How are the patients with soul-deprivation discovered?"

   "It seems to be able to see through some kind of magic that detects the soul... Sorry, I don't know much about magic in this world."

   "Is it everywhere?"

   "Yes... According to reports, it seems that remote towns and villages have a relatively high probability of appearing, and the infection mechanism of this curse is still unclear. I have ordered the night guards to be responsible for maintaining order, so far it is normal."

   "What is the specific number of infected people?"

   "The communication methods in this world are relatively backward. According to the verifiable information we have collected, at least 800 to 1,000 people have been infected with this curse."

   "It's not a small number for this world."

   "Is this related to the evil **** of chaos you mentioned, judge?"

   "No, I don't think this is the work of those Chaos Gods, this doesn't seem like their means."

   Facing Misterina's question, Duanmuhuai shook his head. This kind of method is not like what the evil **** of chaos would do, and the smelly fat house would not engage in such a strange plague. He was more inclined that it was someone from Faerun's world who was causing trouble, but who it was... It's hard to say.

   "What's the report from Judgment Blade?"

   "The Judgment Blade team destroyed several cult strongholds, but found nothing in particular."

"I see."

  After listening to Misterina's report, Duanmuhuai thought for a moment and nodded.

   "I'll go and see those lost soul patients first... By the way, I'll call Mary too."

   "Yes, my lord."

Soon, Duanmuhuai arrived in front of the Tyre Church in Arkham City. Most of the previously discovered soul-deprived patients had been taken in by the Tyre Church, and Mary also joined Duanmuhuai. but……

   "What's her situation?"

  Looking at Xia Li who was standing not far behind, Duanmu Huai frowned, looked at Mary and asked, and the latter tilted her head in doubt.

   "Charlie has been acting with me all this time, can't she?"

   "It's not impossible, but...forget it."

  Duanmu Huai looked at Xia Li who was standing not far away, and the latter saluted him respectfully. It's just that Duanmu Huai always felt that something was wrong. How should I put it, he felt that the way Xia Li looked at him was not normal. It was a bit similar to the feeling of fanatical star fans when they see idol stars... …

   Probably my own illusion, right?

  Thinking about it, how could someone fanatically worship him with his appearance? think too much.

   Duanmu Huai looked away, without thinking much.

   "Okay, let's go in."

"yes."

  After explaining the purpose of coming, Tyre's priest also quickly took the two of them to the underground place where the lost souls were kept, and at the same time introduced the situation of these patients to them.

   "Although it is said that they have lost their souls, their behavior is not abnormal, and their minds are even very clear. The only thing to say is that they are very fanatical about the so-called Supreme God..."

   "Are you sure they haven't read too much of the Ciri?"

   Duanmuhuai made a joke, and the pastor also had a strange expression.

   "I'm sure... my lord, it shouldn't be."

  The so-called Cyric Book is a book written by Cyric after he became a god. To put it bluntly, what this **** thought after he became a **** is that other gods are false gods, and only Cyric is the true god. So he deliberately asked someone to write a book of Cyrek, the content of which was nothing more than how great Cyric was, and Cyric was the only true **** in this world.

Of course, it’s fine if it’s just self-indulgence, but I don’t know whether it’s because the writer of the book is too good at writing or what, after the Siri Sutra is written, all the people who read the Siri Sutra are really brainwashed. Became Cyric's most loyal and crazy follower.

   Then Cyric took a look, huh? This book is really so useful, I will take a look.

   And then... well, Cyric went nuts.

  Reading his autobiography, then crazily worshiping himself, and then narcissistic to the point of going crazy, this is really the only one who is the first person in all times and in all over the world.

The most ridiculous thing is that it is actually very simple to resist the power of this book, that is to read "The True Biography of Cyric" before reading this book. In simple terms, the difference between the two is basically "Three Kingdoms" and " The difference between The Romance of the Three Kingdoms... After you have read the "official history", you will not have any cognitive errors when you read the "Sirui Sutra".

  So in the final analysis, "The Book of Cyre" is a book of romance, but after reading it, Cyric conflicted with his own memory——Am I like that in the book? Am I not? Am I? isn't it? Yeah? isn't it?

   Then went crazy.

   It can be seen that blowing rainbow farts is also dangerous.

   While speaking, the three of them also came to the places where the soul-deprived patients were taken in.

From the outside, this place is a bit similar to the mental ward in Duanmuhuai's memory. Each room is independent, and there is a small window on the door. Tyre's paladins and guards stand on both sides of the corridor. There were angry roars and curses—well, it was like a cross between a mental hospital and a prison.

   "You didn't find any way?"

"No."

  The pastor shook his head.

"We are also very strange. Although their souls have disappeared, their bodies are still living. They are not like undead creatures. They can shine in the sun, and they also need food and water. If it is not for their fanatical worship of the Supreme God and It is detected by divine magic that there is indeed no soul in their bodies, I am afraid no one will think that there is something wrong with these people."

   "The supreme true **** is the only god! You lackeys of false gods!"

   "Let us out! You treat us like this, when the Supreme God appears again, it will wipe you all out...!"

However, the pastor hadn't finished speaking, and soon the shouts of those people came from the surrounding doors. They put their faces in the window and yelled loudly to the outside, scaring Mary a little at a loss—— She had never seen such a sight.

"snort!"

Hearing these roars, Duanmuhuai's face darkened, and then he snorted coldly, and the next moment, the aura of fear spread instantly, and those screaming lost souls suddenly seemed to be strangled by someone's throat, not daring to happen again .

   "You should starve them for ten days and a half months to see if they dare to talk nonsense."

   Duanmu Huai looked at the pastor, who shook his head.

   "That's not Thiel's way of doing things."

   "Well, I know that too, though."

   Duanmuhuai complained, and then looked at the guards.

   "Bring out these lost souls."

"yes."

Hearing Duanmuhuai's order, the guards immediately opened the locked door, and brought out the lost souls who were trembling under Duanmuhuai's aura of fear. , can only collapse on the ground, no matter how the guards help, they seem unable to get up from the ground.

   "I leave it to you, Mary."

   Duanmu Huai turned his head to look at Mary, and said.

   "Let's take a look at the situation of these people."

   "Woo... I see, maybe it's not easy to describe..."

   "Then do you want to do it again?"

  Hearing Mary's answer, Duanmuhuai silently took out the pink book, but seeing Duanmuhuai's actions, Mary's face turned pale and she shook her head desperately.

   "No, no, no, no! I can paint it!"

  Recalling the previous experience, Mary really didn't dare to let Duanmuhuai use that trick again.
