Chapter 620 Tracking

To be honest, the Corrupted Stain has always been the enemy that Duanmu Huai is most reluctant to deal with.

There is only one reason.

It's too disgusting!!

The hard war hammer hit the mutated and corrupted monster in front of him with force, and then Duanmu Huai saw the dense holes all over his body suddenly sprayed out a smelly dark yellow liquid, countless maggots poured out of it, and there were countless mosquito-sized insects that looked like a hornet's nest was poked...

Damn, is it so realistic?

Looking at this scene in front of him, Duanmu Huai's scalp was numb. In the game, the most unbearable thing for players is the subordinates of the Corrupted Stain, which is really disgusting. Just looking at it makes me want to vomit. According to reason, such a disgusting thing should not be approved at all, but the players have been reporting it, but there has been no response as if it has been lost...Hmm?

Wait a minute.

Wait a minute.

It's a sack.

This thing is so disgusting that it can pass the review.

I opened a live broadcast and you blocked me?

Does it mean that I look scarier than this thing?

Damn it!!

Thinking of this, Duanmu Huai was immediately furious.

I can't kill you!

"Go to hell!!"

At this moment, along with Duanmu Huai's roar, the thunder hammer mixed with violent airflow roared out and hit the other two monsters directly. Duanmu Huai was now full of thunder and flames. The shining lightning extended along the thunder hammer to every corner of his armor, and bloomed in all directions. Wherever it went, the tiny, almost invisible insects in the air were directly electrocuted into charcoal.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

At this moment, the girls outside were also dumbfounded. They stood there blankly, watching Duanmu Huai raise the hammer and smash it at the monster in front of them again and again. And with each hammer head falling, a burst of lightning and thunder would burst out from the tall body, giving people the feeling that Thor had descended to earth. At this moment, Emilia and Luo Qixi could do nothing but cover their ears and shiver.

After an unknown amount of time, when Duanmu Huai turned around and walked out again, they realized that the battle was over.

"Woo... Is it over?"

Emilia rubbed her ears, and her ears were still buzzing until now.

"For the time being."

Duanmu Huai swept the room that had been blasted into a mess by him. At least the traces of the Corruption Filth had been completely destroyed by him.

"Then, what exactly is that monster... Will the plague cause that kind of situation?"

Luo Qixi also came back to her senses at this moment, and couldn't help hugging her body. Although she tried her best to maintain her expression, the scene she saw just now still made the young magician shudder.

"This situation sometimes happens, but fortunately this plague has not spread, otherwise it would be more terrible than the Howling Death."

"More, more terrible?"

"That's right."

Looking at the two people in front of him, Duanmu Huai decided to explain it to them.

"This is also a kind of plague. Simply put, they will attach to flies and then bite other people. Those flies will implant eggs in your skin, and then the eggs will hatch into worms, living on flesh in the skin. When they grow bigger, they will drill out of the skin and continue to look for healthy bodies to reproduce the next generation..."

"Wu... Please don't say it."

Before Duanmu Huai finished speaking, Luo Qixi covered her ears and dared not listen anymore, and Emilia was also shaking. I'm afraid she turned pale just thinking about this scene.

"This, will the plague eventually become like this? Mr. Duanmu, have you seen it before?"

"I have seen it before, and it's impressive."

After all, it is one of the top three disgusting things on the player rankings, especially for many female players, it is simply a nightmare.

"But the problem is that this did not appear out of thin air..."

Duanmu Huai said here and looked at Emilia.

"Can you investigate who this warehouse belongs to? I think this cellar should not be just used to store things."

"I, I will report it immediately!"

Hearing Duanmu Huai's question, Emilia also looked very serious. After all, she also knew that this was a big deal.

Soon, the group returned to the Temple of Tyr and met Eribes, and explained to Eribes about Duzel's diary and the monster infected with a strange plague that appeared under the cellar. After listening to Emilia's explanation, Eribes also looked serious.

"I didn't expect that there would be such a monster... Isn't it a demon or a devil?"

"I, I didn't pay attention... ..."

Ah... ......

Looking at the conversation between Eribes and Emilia, Duanmu Huai frowned. This is the bad thing about the polytheistic world. If you change to a scientific world or a monotheistic world, directly point out that the enemy is the stain of corruption, and the other party will also be easy to accept. But this world where gods, angels, demons, and devils exist at the same time is very troublesome.

After all, there are so many beings who can use similar means, such as the God of Plague, as well as demons and devils, etc. It can be said that there are too many suspects. If you tell them a name they have never heard of, they will suspect that you are making it up. At the beginning, when encountering similar tasks, players have tried to directly point out the topic, saying "Listen to me, it's right", but the other party is not only unwilling to believe, but sometimes even more suspicious.

So the players also learned their lesson. When encountering similar things, if they have doubts, they will hide them in their hearts, just follow the NPC all the way down, and then be prepared.

Anyway, as long as the investigation goes smoothly, the real murderer will definitely be found in the end.

Of course, if it is a treacherous trick, it will be much more troublesome.

But...

"I say, do you really want to take them to investigate together? I think it may be faster for me to act alone."

Duanmu Huai looked at Vanswick beside him helplessly. To be honest, he could understand that Emilia led the team. After all, this was an internal investigation. Emilia, as a member of the Silver Knights, was an official staff member of Neverwinter City, that is, she was responsible for observing and reporting credibility. But that Luo Qixi... no matter how you look at it, she is just a little girl under fourteen years old. What's the point of bringing her along?

In the previous investigation, she only used a light spell.

"This investigation is very dangerous. I am not interested in playing house with a fourteen-year-old girl."

"Please don't treat me as a child."

Hearing Duanmu Huai's complaint, Luo Qixi standing next to him was immediately unhappy.

"I am already thirty-six years old."

"……………Huh?"

Hearing Luo Qixi's answer, Duanmu Huai widened his eyes in surprise, then he reached out and grabbed Luo Qixi's collar, and directly lifted her up like a cat, and looked at her carefully.

"Are you kidding me?"

"This is true, Mr. Duanmu Huai."

Van Swick explained beside him.

"This lady is a member of the Migrud clan. The characteristic of their clan is that their appearance will not change after they grow up to the age of fourteen. We have also confirmed her identity and criminal record, please rest assured."

"……………………"

When he heard Vanswick say the word "criminal record", Duanmu Huai saw that Luo Qixi's expression was slightly gloomy.

"So does she have a criminal record?"

"No, she is a magician with a clean record, so we invited her to join the investigation."

"Oh………………"

Duanmu Huai nodded, and then put Luo Qixi down.

But then again, this clan will not grow up after the age of fourteen?

Then the men who marry them... won't all have some problems?

Of course, the court of justice doesn't care about this.

But to be honest, she doesn't look like an adult at all.

Sure enough, a healthy spirit can only live in a healthy body. People with a ghost-like figure like this are probably ghosts for life.

"I hope I can see your ability next time, instead of just hiding behind and trembling."

"I, I know............!"

Hearing Duanmu Huai's words, Luo Qixi's face turned red and turned away angrily, but she felt that she couldn't blame herself. If the opponent was a monster like a bear goblin or a goblin, she would have taken action long ago. But that monster was too disgusting. Luo Qixi wanted to vomit when she thought about it now. It would be strange if she didn't panic when she saw that kind of monster for the first time!

"Mr. Duanmu!"

At this time, Emilia also finished the investigation and ran back excitedly with a contract in her hand.

"It has been found. This warehouse was the property of the Hogg family a long time ago. Not long ago, the ownership was changed to Master Duzel through the procedures. Their family is located in the Black Lake District. Let's go find them immediately!"

Duanmu Huai naturally would not object to this, so soon, the group only had time to drink a cup of hot tea and left the Tyre Temple and walked towards the Black Lake District.

However, when they arrived at the gate of the Black Lake District, they found that the place was heavily guarded and seemed to be in trouble.

"What's going on?"

Amelia also hurried forward and greeted the guard in charge of guarding the gate.

"Is there an outbreak of infectious diseases in the Black Lake District?"

"Oh, Amelia, that's not the case, don't worry."

In response to Amelia's inquiry, the guard also saluted her and then spoke.

"The masters in the Black Lake District are very afraid of death, but......"

"But?"

"I heard that thugs sneaked into the mansion of the Hogg family in the Black Lake District and robbed Mr. Hogg's precious property, and even Mr. Mandaen was killed... Hey, so the group of noble masters asked us to be more vigilant, but where can we get the manpower now..."

"Is Mr. Hogg okay?"

"He's fine, and he's making a big fuss at the sheriff now."

"Huh......"

Hearing that Mr. Hogg was okay, Emilia was also relieved. After all, they were going to ask Hogg questions next. If he died, then... nothing could be asked.

"Let's go, Mr. Duanmu."

Having said this, Emilia also looked determined and walked towards the gate of the Black Lake District.
