"At the beginning, there were mass deaths in some villages outside the city, and then it gradually spread to the city. The cause of death was that the souls were devoured. It was a typical disaster caused by the spirit race.
It's fine during the day, but it's terrifyingly chaotic at night. If I walk around the city with the bell I got from Mr. Zhang, the bell will ring in almost every street.
We didn't think much about it at first. When the bell rang, we would go there and hope to exterminate the rebellious Eldar. But the loss of manpower is too great. Later we realized that the situation here in Lianshan City was different from other places. The Eldar here were not only extremely numerous, but also very powerful. It is somewhat beyond the capabilities of our Special Case Division. "
Zhang Yan was not in a hurry to express his position. According to Shen Wujiu, Lianshan City was not only in "chaos", but also in ruins.
"With so many ghosts, it shouldn't be a problem to sweep through Lianshan City, right?" Zhang Yan secretly thought to himself. With the number of ghosts and their special nature in the wilderness, a mountain city cannot handle them. But the problem is that now the people in the Special Cases Department are afraid of being killed, and all the demons here have been temporarily killed. But even so, even the mountain city has not been swept away by ghosts, and even if people are panicked, it is not complete. Chaos.
What does this mean?
"It seems that the spirit tribe here in Lianshan City does not want to completely destroy the city, but has other reasons for the current situation." Shen Wujiu put forward his own guess. He came to Zhang Yan to add some necessary confidence to the Special Cases Division, because casualties could not continue here. With Zhang Yan in charge, he had the courage to explore what was strange about Lianshan City. .
Zhang Yan nodded, his guess was similar to Shen Wujiu's. There must be something special about Lianshan City, otherwise it wouldn't be so strange.
In fact, Shen Wujiu and the others didn't have any clues. After so many casualties, they tried everything and found some special features, but they didn't sum it up directly. For example, the simple map around Lianshan City that Shen Wujiu asked Zhang Yan to bring had some inexplicable but obvious problems.
"Sir, please see, these red crosses are the locations where tragedies have occurred around Lianshan City. These tragedies can be tentatively or definitely attributed to the Spirit Clan.
"This is..." Zhang Yan quickly understood why Shen Wujiu showed him this map. Because this simple map only outlines some basic outlines of Lianshan City, but it also highlights those small red crosses. There are dozens of small crosses. At first glance, they seem to be scattered. However, if you look at the whole picture, you can see that these red small crosses are actually distributed in several scattering paths, which can even be called Above is "neatly distributed".
However, these scattering lines do not intersect, and the center point of the scattering is not in Lianshan City, but a few of them cross the city.
This also seems to confirm why the first deaths occurred in Zhuangzi outside the city, and then gradually began to spread to the city. Even "spread" is not appropriate. It's just that Zhuangzi outside the city was unlucky. They spread their path first, so they died first, and the path inside the city appeared later, so they died later. That's all.
Zhang Yan picked up the pen on the table next to him, and then marked out several scattered lines. Counting, there are six in total. Moreover, there are obvious signs that these six scattered lines in the southwest direction are converging in one place.
"Master Shen, you have already made it this far, don't you really know where the joints are?" Zhang Yan looked at Shen Wujiu curiously. He didn't believe that the other party even took out this kind of map and didn't know how to unfold it later.
Sure enough, Shen Wujiu smiled with a look of shame on his face. Obviously he knew what Zhang Yan was referring to.
"Mr. Zhang, to be honest, it's not that I don't know but I don't dare to. It was only in the past few days that I figured out the distribution of these cases. I have indeed thought about going to find out. This is also my presumptuous request. The main reason why Mr. Zhang came here was to ask him to help, so that he could feel confident.
But now there is some hesitation. Because those dead monsters died on the way to the place where those paths converged. Discovered by our scouts. "
While talking, Shen Wujiu brought out another map. This time it is no longer a simple map of Lianshan City, but a detailed topographic map commonly used in the military. The clearly marked map of the entire Beijiang County.
"Sir, please see, this should be Lianshan City, and even related to the situation of the Spirit Tribe raging in the entire Beijiang County."
The new map also has many red crosses marked on it, with the number reaching hundreds. Most of it is disorganized. But the closer they get to Lianshan City, the more they appear to gather inexplicably, and they will eventually converge on the few paths surrounding Lianshan City. And even the paths involved in Lianshancheng are not all. It's just that there are no cities like Lianshan City that are stuck on the path in the other directions, otherwise the situation should be similar to Lianshan City.
The final focus is on the final intersection where these paths converge.
"This place is the biggest suspected location at present. Those monsters just wanted to go to investigate, but they died on the road. This is where their bodies were found. In a forest of short trees, there were not many traces of fighting. There should be nothing Anyone who resisted was killed."
Shen Wujiu's hand pointed repeatedly on the map. Finally, they stopped at the final meeting point, where the woods were marked outside a circle. That was the place where the monsters he said died in battle. Looking at the map, we can see that the distance between the intersection and the circle is less than fifty miles.
"Could it be the entrance and exit of the Dead Silence Road?" Zhang Yan used his knowledge of ghosts to figure out that the only path that could explain this obvious scattering was the Dead Silence Road connecting the holy realm.
"What the gentleman said is exactly what I think. But if that is the case, it will be really difficult. We have no way to block the Dead Silence Road. If we follow the example of the demon clan, it will probably cause even greater trouble. In fact, I don't know how to start." Shen Wujiu looked troubled.
Unlike the demon clan, it is simply wishful thinking to block the path of death and silence with the power of Nanyuan Kingdom alone. But Lianshan City is now in a very bad situation because it happens to be stuck on the Road of Death.
"I don't know how long the spirit clan will be in such trouble this time." Shen Wujiu sighed, and the implication seemed to be that he had given up hope. It's a bit self-deceiving to just look forward to what the Eldar will be like before they recover. It also fully demonstrates the helplessness and powerlessness of the Special Case Division and Nanyuan Kingdom.
"Dead silence, I'm interested to find out." Zhang Yan suddenly said with a smile.
