Chapter 861 The Situation Worsens
Most of the citizens of Emerald City who have this kind of situation are old people like Papa Keen, those who have had severe symptoms from the very beginning.
"Don't move, don't touch them, don't approach them!"
"Back off, everyone back off!"
"Idiot, I told you to back off, didn't you hear? Don't tell me you want to end up like this too, back off, you can't help him, but you will put yourself in."
"What's going on? Why can't they touch? Why can't we help them?"
"They are not simply diseases. They are parasitized by nightmare insects. If you approach them rashly, those anxious nightmare insects are likely to transfer to your body."
"Nightmare worms? How is it possible? Aren't the nightmare worms already blocked by the divine shield? If you don't go out, how can you be infected with the nightmare worms?"
"Is there a mistake?"
"It's impossible for me to get this wrong if I get it wrong. My grandfather, my grandmother, and my mother all died because of this. This is definitely a unique phenomenon in the process of exorcising the nightmare bug."
Some old people in Emerald City, seeing the situation in front of them, suddenly changed their colors, and some horrible and bloody memories they thought they had forgotten poured out.
Words flooded their minds one by one.
Seed of Nightmare.
The beginning of the nightmare.
Puppets.
Twisted dream bug.
No matter how the name changes, it describes a species.
Larval Shadow Seed of Twisted Nightmare.
Before the cataclysm, these invisible and intangible terrifying existences also wreaked havoc on the plane of Abigail for a long time.
This particular parasite has a special way of parasitizing, and there are no obvious symptoms of disease.
When they are discovered, they are often terminally ill, and their temperament has changed drastically, so it is not surprising to make any crazy and unimaginable actions.
If this kind of parasitism happened to ordinary people, the harm would be relatively light, at most it would be to kill and harm the closest people around you.
If this kind of parasitism appeared on the city lord, the king, or such a powerful person in power, it would cause a national disaster.
Before the cataclysm, the bloody battle on the Abilgay plane lasted for half a century, and their role in sowing dissension in the middle cannot be ignored.
It wasn't until after the cataclysm that the city's protective shield was formed that they escaped from this parasitic threat.
Unexpectedly, they thought they were absolutely safe, and the sealed environment was no longer safe.
Those young people who didn't care much at first, after hearing this name, they all stung like poisonous needles and retreated one after another.
Although they haven't experienced that horrible age, they don't know how many times they have heard those old people say it.
"Master Messenger is here, Lord Messenger has made a move, Lord Messenger must have a way to heal them..."
"That's right. The Messenger must have a solution..."
"Master Messenger, I beg you, save my father, save him..."
Now is an important point for Sean to further accumulate his personal reputation in the Emerald City. Of course, he can't fool Ulan Baz like he did when he fooled Ulan Baz back then, and the number of people who wish to be put to death will decrease.
He has been closely observing the conditions of those Emerald City citizens.
When a local patient collapsed, the energy avatar rushed to him with the wind.
His judgment was the same as those of the older citizens of the Emerald City.
These people were parasitized by the shadow seed, and the situation was quite serious.
The same question also surfaced in Sean's mind.
How did these shadow seeds get in here?
Sean has traveled around the Emerald City for the past few days.
The protective shield of laws covering the city is completely airtight.
Including those waters, this partition is in the city, and the Twisting Nightmare has no loopholes to drill.
Could it be that, like shadow energy, they spread in along the oxygen supply system of Abigail's world tree to these cities?
Not right either.
How powerful is Abigail World Tree itself.
At best, it is too late to fully digest the shadow energy absorbed by the mistress of the shadows. How can it be possible to let the shadow seed swim back and forth in its core organs?
The Seed of Shadow doesn't have such tenacious vitality yet.
Thinking about it.
There is only one such possibility.
That is the seeds of these shadows, which are spawned by those shadow energies in the bodies of these patients.
in other words.
The seeds of shadows are not only able to condense and form in the shadow mistress. Once the shadow energy separated from the shadow mistress is gathered in a large enough quantity and has enough nutrients and fertile soil, it can automatically become a shadow seed .
If this is the case, the time left for Sean is not as much as Goddess Abigail estimated.
What is happening in the Emerald City is very likely to happen in all the Abigail cities.
If Sean doesn't find them as soon as possible, and remind them that by the time Sean finds most of the Abigail cities, there is a high probability that they will have become ghosts wreaking havoc on twisted nightmares, and the city shield will no longer be there to protect them. exist.
It is a cage that prevents them from escaping.
Even if they escape from this cage, what awaits them will be a more desperate future, with more twisted nightmares wandering around outside.
With a lot of guesswork in his mind, Sean's movements in his hands didn't stop, he threw the patient up, and punched him neatly.
"Master Messenger, what are you doing?"
"Master Messenger, if you do this, you will kill Papa Keen!"
"Master Messenger, you can't do this!"
Seeing Xiao En's actions, the surrounding citizens of Emerald City were in another commotion, and many people couldn't help but shouted to stop it.
Is the other party trying to save someone? Still murdering?
Seeing Xiao En's fierce punches, even if it fell on a healthy adult, it might make him breathless, let alone a seriously ill and very weak old man.
But the next scene completely broke their cognition, and they had to shut up obediently after being stunned.
They are professionals in this regard.
Sean directly punched Papa Keen and sent him flying. At the same time, a black twisted monster like a small octopus flew upside down from Papa Keen's body.
Even a fool can tell that this translucent little octopus obviously didn't come out voluntarily, but was shaken out alive by Xiao En's punch just now.
No need to ask, this is the seed of nightmare that made all the Abigails turn pale.
After being shaken out of Papa Keen's body, the Shadow Seed was still full of vitality, with a black energy line like a rope connecting it and Papa Keen's body.
After waiting for the energy impact on his body to weaken a little, he jumped back along the rope in the shadows, trying to get into Papa Keen's body again.
Xiao En, who was following closely, swiped his right hand and pinched Father Keen, who was in a coma, under his arm. His right hand turned into a knife, and slashed at the black energy line.
squeak……
The Seed of Shadow trembled violently as if it had been hit hard, its octopus-like tentacles swayed wildly, no longer trying to return to the original host's body, turned its head and rushed towards the nearest Emerald City citizen, and at the same time issued There were bursts of piercing low-frequency screams.
The citizens of the Emerald City around Seed of Shadow felt dizzy as if their heads had been pierced by an awl.
The Emerald City citizen who was targeted by the Seed of Shadow was in a particularly serious situation. He stood there blankly, not knowing how to avoid the Seed of Shadow's pounce.
"It's all out, and I still want to be a demon."
Sean chased after him closely, his speed was extremely fast, and he seemed to be the last to come first.
squeak……
The Shadow Seed repeated its old tricks, turning the audio control attack to Sean, trying to delay the time so that it could parasitize other people and lurk again.
"roll!"
Sean typically retaliates in the same way, using a sonic attack to retaliate, and a burst of power gushes out from the roar.
The powers of the two are not at the same level at all. Not only was the Shadow Seed's attack completely ineffective, but it was directly hit by Sean's sonic attack. left hand.
With the fingers of his left hand closed, Sean was like crushing a bubble.
Directly crush the shadow seed and vaporize it instantly.
Don't forget, the fists of Sean's energy avatar also have law runes.
This is an existence that can cause harm to their mother bodies. They are little guys who haven't formed yet, and they can't get out of the waves at all.
"He should be fine after resting for a while, take care of him." Xiao En conveniently threw Papa Keen to the Emerald City citizen who had just been locked by the Seed of Shadow.
The other party is still in panic and fear, he hurriedly took Papa Keen over, and said repeatedly: "Master Messenger, don't worry, I will definitely take good care of him, thank you Messenger."
Sean waved his hand at him without looking back, leaving only a back that went away like a wind.
No need to ask, he is rushing to another critically ill patient.
For the next thing, Sean followed suit.
Before everyone, including the shadow seed in the patient's body, reacted, he punched it directly, blasting it out of the patient's body, and then killed it cleanly.
This process must cause a riot.
There is no way, this kind of treatment method seems to be a bit violent.
But to deal with a special enemy like the Seed of Shadow, this powerful medicine can only be used.
The tug-of-war with it will not only take a long time, but will also cause greater burden and destruction to the patient's body and soul.
This method is also based on a premise that the shadow seeds in these patients have not been entangled with the patient's soul until recently.
If it was a critically ill patient like General Pedro, this kind of energy shock would not only shake out the shadow seeds in the patient, but might even bring out the patient's soul, hurting the patient's root.
The citizens of the Emerald City who have the seeds of shadows are obviously in the early and middle stages of symptoms. The seeds of the shadows are relatively weak, not deeply rooted, and the number is not particularly large. They are mainly concentrated in the middle-aged and elderly people. Sean dealt with them fairly quickly.
"What's going on? Why is there a seed of nightmare here?"
"How did they break through the city shield?"
City Lord Roxani and High Priest Devitt came after hearing the news. Although they tried their best to hold on, there was still a trace of panic on their faces that could not be concealed.
The emergence of this situation meant that their Emerald City was no longer absolutely safe.
"They are an upgraded version of the epidemic situation..." Xiao En told his guess truthfully, "We have already figured out a way to contain the source. Whether my guess is right or not, we will know after a period of observation."
"Since the Messenger said so, it must be done." The city lord of Roxani said happily, "Fortunately, the Messenger is here this time, otherwise the Emerald City has caused a catastrophe. We really don't know how to thank the Messenger for everything we've done."
"This is the sacred mission entrusted to me by Your Majesty the Mother Tree." Xiao En has a solemn expression, interpreting the role of the magic stick to the extreme, "If you really want to thank, thank you Your Majesty the Mother Tree!"
"Your Majesty's favor, we have never forgotten, and the grace of the Messenger cannot be ignored." City Lord Roxani said sincerely.
"With the help of the messenger, we were able to escape the catastrophe. The cities of other tribes may not be so lucky. We must find a way to notify the tribes of other cities before these monsters cause a huge disaster." Dawei Te The priest showed deep worry, and he also thought of the question that Xiao En thought of before.
They rely on the same Abigail world tree to survive. The problem of Emerald City derived from the world tree will also exist in other cities.
"The consciousness of the mother tree is lost, the dream is closed indefinitely, and our connection with other cities is completely cut off. If we send a messenger to find and inform other cities along the mother tree, even the most well-trained soldiers will have a chance of arriving alive. , almost zero." The city lord of Roxani looked dignified, as if we were powerless.
When it came to the end, the gazes of City Lord Roxani and High Priest Dewitt turned to Sean at the same time.
In the Emerald City, the only person who can walk freely outside the city's protective shield is the emissary of the Mother Tree.
Previously, the opponent relied on the power of one person to beat tens of thousands of nightmares to pieces and fled.
I believe that as long as there is no such monarch-level nightmare staring at him, his life will not be in any danger.
It's just that the other party has just helped the Emerald City through a huge crisis, and it seems too inhumane to let the other party embark on a new round of running around.
Sean understood the meaning in the expressions of the city lord Roxani and the high priest Devitt, and nodded his head as a matter of course: "You don't need to ask, once I confirm that Emerald City is safe, I will embark on a new journey and try to help save the city. More cities and people..."
"Your envoy's nobility, let us be ashamed of it. Here, on behalf of all the clansmen, I would like to thank you for your selfless dedication. From now on, Emerald City will be the home of the envoy. No matter when you come back, we will Warmly welcome, no matter what we need to do, we will do our best." The city lord of Roxani really didn't know, except for giving Xiao En the highest gratitude and praise, what to use in return for the other party's help to them.
