Chapter 422 Nothing Serious

Lynch led four soldiers to the dungeon entrance from the door. The soldiers were angry, but Lynch was worried.

When the soldiers received the signal to go to the fire scene for support, Miss Diana reminded him that the fortress would be empty after the soldiers left, and it would be easy for someone to take advantage of it.

And there were patrol soldiers outside, and someone ran here from the city center to notify the disaster. This matter itself was a bit strange. At this time, the two most critical factors, Dr. Swen and the infected were concentrated in the fortress. Once someone stole the house, it would be over.

Therefore, the four decided to split into two groups. Lynch led the team to check the situation at the fire scene, and the two ladies and Dr. Swen set up an ambush for the enemy who might come to steal the house. As long as you can leave the other party's fresh blood, you will wait for you to find the other party's position along the blood track.

As a result, Lynch ran into an unexpected surprise as soon as he came back with the team, but he did not expect that the other party would be so vicious and directly attack with a fatal attack.

Neighbors bless you two, don't get into trouble.

He didn't realize it when he was arranging it, but now he realized how worried he was about the safety of the two ladies. The key is that if it was a real fight, he wouldn't be so worried, but the plague was full of strangeness and mystery, and he didn't even dare to think about what he would do if something really happened to one of them.

While harassing his neighbors, he strode towards the entrance of the dungeon, but as soon as he reached the entrance, a figure covered in blood rushed up from the stairs.

The injured beast is the most dangerous, not to mention meeting on a narrow road.

Both sides paused at the same time, and then the cloaked ghoul roared in a low voice, and the injured left arm swung out at a high speed, and the sharp claws directly pinched Lynch's dragon.

The brain hadn't reacted yet, but Lynch had seen the two corpses at the door, and his body also reacted subconsciously, with his cane erected in front of him, and then there was a crisp sound of ding.

The cane blocked the throat-sealing claw in time. Lynch pretended to be deliberately weak and staggered back two steps, just letting the dungeon entrance. The ghoul immediately rushed out, turned back and left a resentful roar, and quickly disappeared into the night.

Damn, it was a close call. It seems that I still need to exercise my combat awareness, otherwise I won’t be so lucky next time.

Lynch touched his neck that almost said goodbye to him, and broke out in a cold sweat.

There was a hurried sound of footsteps down the stairs soon. The three ladies heard the movement outside and ran up. Seeing that it was Lynch, they were relieved.

"How is it." Lynch looked up and down at the two people, confirmed that they were not injured, and finally felt at ease. Then he quickly told the situation in the square, "Everything is going well on your side, did you get the blood?"

"I got it, it went smoothly, but..."

Miss Diana glanced in the direction of Dr. Swen, and Lynch noticed that the female doctor looked gloomy and worried.

"Don't squint, I'm not going to hide it."

Dr. Swain sighed, and arranged for the returning soldiers to resume security guards in the barracks. He took four people and waited for more people to return to the door of the dungeon. Then he said faintly:

"I saw it, that's my father."

Huh?

Old Swain, the owner of Swain Farm, who was sad about the death of his beloved daughter and caused the birth of this strange ring, was the culprit?

It was too unexpected. Lynch was stunned for a long time and couldn't recover, but when he came back to his senses and thought about it carefully, it was unexpectedly reasonable.

I'm afraid that this is the case in real history.

City Lord Jackson had a good relationship with the Swain family, and it was not impossible to be induced by Swain.

Dr. Swain was his daughter, and it was normal for her to accidentally reveal the details of the death transmission ceremony to Old Swain.

As a priest in the tribe, Old Swain must be handy with various rituals, and it's not surprising that this ceremony can be held smoothly.

It can be completely self-consistent. In the end, Old Swain planned all this through the city lord.

In the timeline without his own, several key events were not discovered, which led to the plague being completely out of control and spreading throughout the city. Everyone, including the city lord, might have been infected.

The strong-willed Dr. Swen should not have been infected, but at her request, all the people in the city were slaughtered regardless of whether they were sick or not. It was her father who caused all this. The doctor felt guilty, so he buried more than 8,000 people in the city with his own life, which was also regarded as taking the sin for his father.

In the end, in addition to purifying the ghouls in the city, the initiator, Old Swen, survived.

I don’t know what he was thinking when he held his daughter’s body at the end, but in any case, this feeling was sincere, otherwise it would not have led to the birth of the strange object with him and Dr. Swen as the main body.

Looking at the gloomy female doctor in front of him, Lynch felt a little more sympathy in his heart.

This memory is actually okay, but in real history, when she tried her best to stop but could not control the spread of the plague, and tried her best to track it down, she finally found that the real murderer was her father, how desperate she would feel.

No wonder she ended all the pain with death.

"Don't look at me like that. I can hold on." Dr. Swen smiled. "As a daughter, I have a greater obligation to handle everything and control the plague in order to correct the mistakes he made. So don't worry about me. Everything will be carried out according to the previous agreement. I will continue to prepare the medicine. When the medicine is available tomorrow, I will follow his blood to find him. I must make him turn back."

What a unique ghoul.

Lin Qi felt that because of her, his impression of ghouls has improved a lot.

He was about to say something relieved, but when he turned his head, he found Officer Natalie staring at him with a strange look in his eyes. Lynch frowned: "What's wrong? Is there something wrong with me?"

Officer Natalie made a gesture of touching her neck.

Lin Qi was stunned, reached out and touched it, and found a little blood on his hands. Then he discovered a few shallow blood marks on his neck.

"Oh, it's okay. We ran into old Sven when he was escaping. We had a confrontation and he almost cut his throat, but I blocked him. I think he was rubbed by his claws at that time. It was nothing serious. Even if you don't tell me, I can't feel it, but the ghoul's claws are still..."

As he spoke, Lin Qi suddenly came to his senses and his face turned livid.

Not only him, but everyone present looked extremely strange.

Nothing serious?

Most of the more and more infected people inside were fine at first.

"It should be fine." Miss Diana said with a pale face and trembling lips, "You were scratched by Old Swain. Old Swain is not an infected person. He is just a normal ghoul, just like Dr. Swain. , He is definitely not contagious and will not infect you."

However, as she spoke, her eyes became red.

"Oh, if he is the culprit, he must have been exposed to infectious sources frequently." Lynch pressed his forehead and sighed deeply, "No one can guarantee that he is not infected."

Officer Natalie also said: "But there is no guarantee that he will be taken. After all, he is not an infected person."

Lin Qi smiled bitterly, rubbed his neck and fell silent. For a moment, the door of the dungeon fell into dead silence, and only the roar of the infected in the dungeon could be heard faintly.
