"No gain."
The operation of the Saintess Festival is finally over. Although the giant mutant infected person has been eliminated, there are still no clues about the body of the mermaid.
"The witch you are talking about must be Dorothea, right?"
Da Silva pondered for a while before slowly speaking. The sky outside the window gradually darkened. The day was passing so quickly, but they made no progress.
"You know her?"
Jiang Chenchuan was slightly surprised. The people in Ronark City regarded the witch as a heretic, someone everyone wanted to kill, and few people knew her real name.
"I've heard some stories about her..."
Da Silva sighed and said quietly, as a conjurer, he still has some admiration for the witch. Barras didn't know what the situation was, so he could only say nothing and quietly Listen to their conversation.
"It's just that her original residence is gone. If you really want to know something... maybe... you can go to this address."
Da Silva pushed the map on the table over. On it was the overall layout of Ronark City, and where Da Silva's fingertips were pointing...
Jiang Chenchuan looked down:
"The Association of Conjurers."
"That's right, but the current Conjurers Association is dominated by the infected. If you go there..."
Da Silva did not say the next words, but everyone knew what he meant. The infected themselves were difficult to deal with, let alone those magicians who could change the status of the infected.
What they will face is greater difficulties.
Darkness has covered the city. There are still some empty rooms in Da Silva's house, which can be temporarily provided for living. Listening to the roaring and wailing outside, people can't feel a glimmer of hope.
The entire Ronark City was at a standstill. Even Jiang Chenchuan could only wait quietly for the arrival of the next day. The depressing atmosphere was full of dangers.
The only survivors were hiding in dark corners, hiding their whereabouts. Even Da Silva did not dare to light a light at home, otherwise it would easily attract infected people to the door.
Those ferocious-looking soldiers would wander around the city from time to time. After dark, they would return to the king's residence to guard the safety of the nobles. Ordinary infected people who were active in the city during the day would occasionally take to the streets in groups at night. Hunting.
If you are lucky, you can catch a few unlucky guys who come out to steal food. Unfortunately, as time goes by, and normal humans hug each other for warmth, there are fewer and fewer humans on the street.
Ronark City seems to have experienced a doomsday disaster, full of changes and fear. Da Silva's body is also experiencing pain. The price of changing the spell is that every night, he has to Lock yourself in a room with no one around.
Barras, who was passing by, could hear the painful screams coming from the door. In order to pretend not to know, Barras quickly returned to his room and locked the door.
"It's so scary..."
Barras' back was against the door, breathing slightly...
On the other side, Jiang Chenchuan was sitting at the table, looking at the opened recycling box in front of him, and put the Gun of Palutru in it.
Click.
After fastening the lock, suddenly, something dark flashed out of the corner of his eye. Jiang Chenchuan immediately became alert. He turned his head and saw that it was almost as dark outside the window as inside the house. Only a few street lights were still shining faintly. Let people see clearly what is happening on the streets.
"who?"
Jiang Chenchuan asked calmly.
He waited for a while, but did not get any reply. Not wanting to alert the snake or attract the attention of the infected, Jiang Chenchuan grabbed his cane and cautiously approached the window.
Looking down from the second floor through the window, there was nothing in the deserted night. Maybe it was his imagination. Jiang Chenchuan shook his head and was about to turn back when he heard some inexplicable noises outside the window.
The sound was like claws scratching the wall, which seemed a bit scary in the quiet night.
"Crack."
A paw landed on the window, and then a pair of green eyes quietly appeared outside the window.
"cat?"
What an unexpected picture. It turned out to be a black cat. Due to the color of its fur, it was particularly inconspicuous in the dark. If the cat hadn't deliberately made noise, no one would have noticed it.
Half of the black cat's body was hanging in the air, using only its claws to pull at Jiang Chenchuan's window. It looked very dangerous. In order to prevent an accident, Jiang Chenchuan quickly opened the window carefully and then reached out to bring the cat in.
The cold wind blew hard, and it wasn't until the black cat landed that Jiang Chenchuan felt relieved. The strange thing was that the cat didn't meow or fuss, and allowed Jiang Chenchuan to hug him around the whole time.
"Fortunately, there are no wounds on the body."
It wasn't until Jiang Chenchuan turned it over to check that it meowed in displeasure and struggled away.
He jumped onto the table, walked around twice, found a comfortable position, and lay down lazily.
Looking at the familiar movements and breath, Jiang Chenchuan had a vague feeling of bad premonition.
"You can't be..."
Before Jiang Chenchuan could finish speaking.
The black cat slowly opened its eyes and meowed lightly towards Jiang Chenchuan, as if in reply to his words.
This is almost the black cat they brought!
How did you escape into another city?
Jiang Chenchuan felt something was wrong. His first reaction was to consider whether Ethan and the others had also come in, so he took the cat with him.
If the cat is here, it means that Ethan and the others have also discovered his whereabouts. Logically speaking, they should show up now.
But Jiang Chenchuan waited quietly for a while. No matter where he looked, there was no whereabouts of Ethan and the others.
"But how did you find me?"
Staring at the black cat and muttering to himself, yes, this is the only strange thing about Jiang Chenchuan. This cat is not like a dog. How did he find his residence and floor so accurately.
The black cat huddled on the table with its eyes closed, as if it was asleep. Jiang Chenchuan ignored what it said.
"How strange..."
Jiang Chenchuan turned his head and looked out the window. It was almost a peaceful night, and nothing happened.
The appearance of the black cat brought strangeness. No matter what the reason was, it seemed impossible to explain why it appeared outside the window, as if it was specifically looking for Jiang Chenchuan.
Even Da Silva couldn't help but sigh when he saw it, and even wanted to reach out and touch it. Unfortunately, the black cat didn't seem to like the infected. As soon as he saw Da Silva's appearance, he yelled and ran out.
Looking at the back of the black cat, Da Silva showed his disappointment.
