It seems that the situation at the Saintess Festival is indeed different from that in the city. It seems that it has encountered a fierce attack and an unimaginable fierce battle.
The dried blood was solidified on the ground, and corpses everywhere were piled up like garbage, exuding a strange stench, blocking Jiang Chenchuan's progress.
Occasionally, a few infected people passed by, but they all looked listless. Even if they saw Jiang Chenchuan and the others, they chose to ignore them.
There were also some infected people huddled in the corner of the street, seemingly falling asleep, and moaning in pain from time to time. Barras observed their status curiously. The closer they got to the location of the Saintess Festival, the more the infected people moved. The slower.
Some infected people even asked Jiang Chenchuan for help.
"Passers over there...can you help me..."
Jiang Chenchuan stopped when he heard the voice, walked to the side of the infected person, squatted down, and found that it was just the last whisper before death.
When leaving, the infected person kept repeating:
"Can the people over there...can...can they help me..."
No one spoke anymore, they could only move forward silently while being vigilant about the infected people around them. The sticky feeling under their feet was always a bit off-putting.
As we approached the site of the Saintess Ceremony, we saw that no place was clean. We heard the whistling wind and unknown roars, and we didn't know where those strange sounds came from.
"Baras, here we come."
Climbing uphill was already a very hard task. After hearing Jiang Chenchuan's words, Barras raised his head and saw a scene that shocked him.
It was like a huge creature composed of countless monsters, just hanging on the altar. It was impossible to see the deformed faces clearly in the chaotic scene. It was like a huge predator. As long as there was a creature approaching, it would Will take the initiative to attack.
"what is that?"
Barras asked in surprise.
"I don't know, but I guess...it's also the result of that curse."
Probably guessing that this would be the result, Jiang Chenchuan speculated that this was also the work of the magicians. No wonder da Silva looked embarrassed when he said he wanted to go to the festival.
I'm afraid he already knew at that time that he would face this situation.
"Then...are we still going?"
Barras is not stupid, even the soldiers dare not approach here, and the infected people along the way are also in a state of death. One can imagine how terrifying this giant monster in front of him is.
"Go, don't let go of a clue."
As long as the corpse is put into this specially improved recycling box, the curse will be ineffective. Although the infected person who has turned into a monster cannot be saved, at least it can stop the curse from spreading.
Barras stood there blankly, muttering in his heart that he could not die with Jiang Chenchuan, but what was gratifying was that Jiang Chenchuan did not seem to have the intention to act together.
"The enemy may be far stronger than I thought, and I'm afraid they will attack indiscriminately. So don't follow me. Take this and wait for me outside."
Jiang Chenchuan handed the decomposed Spear of Perutru to Baras. The moment he held the handle of the gun, he felt dizzy.
"There will be some negative symptoms when using the Gun of Palutru, just hold on."
It turned out that Jiang Chenchuan was responsible for it, and Barras didn't know that he had been suffering this silently.
"you……"
"wait me back."
Before Barras could say anything, Jiang Chenchuan took the recycling box and his skeleton cane and walked towards the messy large creature.
Following Jiang Chenchuan's figure with his eyes, Baras knew that this operation was full of danger. He lowered his head and glanced at the Peltru's Gun in his hand. For a moment, complicated emotions surged into his heart.
There are only two ways to get close to the altar. The simplest and crudest is to directly deal with the giant infected person in front of you. It can't even be regarded as a person, but a strange creature gathering here and there.
The second method is to be more hidden, avoid its detection, and directly search for clues about the relics.
"Be careful, no one can save you if you die this time."
There was an unpleasant voice in his ears. Who was speaking? Jiang Chenchuan naturally understood that the original sin's ability to speak out meant that he also had a premonition of the danger of the creature in front of him.
The monster's grunting sound came from above its head, and it seemed to be aware of Jiang Chenchuan's approach, and it began to slowly wake up from its sleep.
First, he stretched out his limbs. It looked about two meters long and was covered with dense barbs. If it was touched, it might not be as simple as being infected with a curse.
When Jiang Chenchuan got a little closer, he could clearly see the spells covering its body. The grunting became louder and the entire huge body began to move slowly.
Jiang Chenchuan immediately dodged into a shadow and used some objects to cover his whereabouts. In order to cover up the human smell, he also smeared some bloody things on the ground on his coat.
After doing all this, he quietly poked his head out and observed the creature's movements.
Its tentacles were seen waving casually in the air, destroying some buildings or corpses in front of it from time to time, and cutting them repeatedly with its claws, as if to confirm whether they were still alive.
"Gulu...Gulu..."
The sound was so close that it sounded creepy.
"boom--"
There was a violent noise somewhere, and the distant noise caught the monster's attention. It turned around and seemed to be leaning its body to look in that direction, but due to its heavy body, it could not move a step.
Just in time, Jiang Chenchuan also took this opportunity to quietly approach its feet. If you look carefully, you can still see every part of the giant infected person in front of you. However, due to its continuous swallowing and absorption, it has transformed itself into what it is now. This look.
"It's a curse seal..."
Jiang Chenchuan's blue pupils tightened, and he discovered the source of all the strangeness.
However, he is not a magician, so even if he finds the mark, he can't do much.
With a push of his hands, Jiang Chenchuan climbed onto the altar, which was squeezed so hard by the infected that there was almost no place on it. Only then did he discover that there were iron chains tied to the giant infected's feet, which were now swollen and deformed.
I heard that after Dorothea, except for the daughters of nobles, they would add a chain to the saint to prevent Dorothea's accident from happening again.
Therefore, Jiang Chenchuan could imagine what she was going through before she turned into a monster.
"So, she is... the last... saint?"
Jiang Chenchuan murmured.
