Chapter 393 So-and-so Crisis
There was no reaction when the words were spoken, but a few seconds later, as Judy translated, the atmosphere suddenly fell into dead silence.
Especially those who don’t believe it, their expressions are no longer so confident.
Although Lynch’s words are incredible, what if?
Calculating time, other soldiers were bitten within a few minutes after Mag was bitten. If the foreigner's guess came true, wouldn't it mean that the injured would start to go crazy soon?
The injured were all close to the entrance of the fortress. When the crazy people ran outside, the citizens outside...
The armed knight and Dr. Swain no longer dared to think about it, and took the lead to return the same way. Lynch motioned for the others to follow, and shouted loudly from behind: "Remember, don't get scratched or bitten."< br>
Bless my neighbors, I hope my guess will not come true.
Lin Qi followed closely with the other three people, constantly praying to his neighbors in his heart, but the soft sigh coming from his consciousness made his heart sink.
"Mike, what's wrong with you?"
"William, why is William not breathing?"
"What happened? Why are they dead? Where is the therapist? Go and get Swain." Ms.”
Before they returned to the barracks where the injured were parked, a riot of noise came from there. The noisy shouts made everyone's hearts sink to the bottom, and they felt a chill all over their bodies.
Let the foreigners be right, something really happened to the bitten soldier.
"Don't get close to the dead, get out of the way."
Although he didn't understand, Lynch could guess what happened and shouted subconsciously. However, no one here except Dr. Swain could understand his shout, and Dr. Swain and Judy hadn't had time yet. Translator, there was already a cheer in the barracks.
"Wake up, get up quickly, don't pretend to be dead at this time, it's not fun."
"What's going on, Mike, what are you doing, stop."
"Ah~~"
The armed knight no longer dared to neglect, he took off the small leather shield from his back to protect it in front of him, and rushed into the barracks like a wild bull. Several other soldiers who followed also knew the inside story. He also picked up a few sundries from the roadside to defend himself, and followed the officer to launch a charge.
When Lynch and Dr. Swain followed, they saw that the others had gotten out of the way. The armed knight slapped a crazy soldier with his shield, and then drew his sword without hesitation. Pierced another soldier's heart.
However, the impaled soldier was unconscious and continued to move forward with a roar, waving his hands and scratching at the armed knight with his nails. Fortunately, the knight was wearing ring armor and his nails could not break through the defense at all.
Having seen the vitality of these lunatics, seeing the impaled soldier still trying to get closer and biting him, I kicked him over with red eyes. However, the soldier knocked down by the shield had already crawled over. A bite to the ankle of the armed knight.
The cowhide boots have made great achievements.
The human teeth failed to bite through the thick cowhide, but they also shocked the armed knight into a cold sweat. The lunatic on the ground had already grabbed his ankle. He swung his legs desperately and tried to kick the opponent away, but he was still unable to do so. In the end, he struck down with his sword and cut off one of the opponent's hands, and then freed himself.
But the lunatic whom he had kicked away did not stop. He pounced directly on his former colleagues who got out of the way. These country soldiers had never seen such a terrifying scene and had lost their ability to think and instinct. He screamed and fled around. Fortunately, a soldier following the armed knight picked up the chair next to him and stuck the madman on the ground. Even so, the madman still struggled desperately, and the roar made the soldiers' hands and feet become weak and their faces turned ashen.
"Head, destroy the head."
Lin Qi, who followed, immediately began to impart his rich experience. Several soldiers next to him were still hesitant, but the armed knight had no doubts at all. He swung his sword at the short-handed soldier, and the sword cut off the neck with huge force. , the head flew out in a spin.
The body that had been so powerful a moment ago seemed to have been drained of all its strength after the decapitation. It collapsed on the spot, its limbs twitched slightly for a few times, and then became motionless.
It really works.
However, as soon as joy appeared on the face of the armed knight, he saw that the fallen head still had round eyes, and its teeth were opening and closing in an attempt to bite everything around it. It was not until the soldiers on the side rushed up and smashed the head with a hammer that the crazy head finally finally Be quiet. Recalling that Kemit, who died in the first place, was completely dead after his head was smashed, the armed knight immediately yelled at his subordinates. It would be easier to find a way. Soon the other crazy soldier became completely quiet, and the crazy roar finally disappeared. , the barracks fell into dead silence.
After a while, the remaining soldiers present let out a long sigh. The battle was not fierce, but the hands and feet of these professional soldiers were sore and weak, and several of them sat directly on the ground. .
The soldiers finally showed relaxed expressions on their faces, but the armed knights and Dr. Swain did not, let alone Lynch. He knew very well that the tragedy had just begun.
There are still sixteen soldiers left here, plus one who is lying down, making a total of seventeen. Among them, six are obviously injured. Judging from the performance just now, these six will go crazy one after another. .
Obviously, not only the armed knights and Dr. Swain thought of this problem, but the five soldiers who had followed also quickly reacted and quickly moved away from the injured in the surprised eyes of their colleagues. , the most violent reaction even directly raised their weapons.
"They will also go crazy soon." A soldier shouted loudly, "All those bitten and scratched will turn into them."
Before he finished speaking, the barracks was already in an uproar, and other intact soldiers quickly followed suit. He moved away from his injured comrade and at the same time drew his weapon again.
“We are not crazy!”
Several wounded people were unwilling to be sentenced to death, so they also drew their swords and gathered back to back. For a moment, the atmosphere in the barracks was about to explode, like a fuse igniting a powder keg.
Seeing Dr. Swain and the armed knight subconsciously looking at him for help, Lynch sighed. This plague was very dangerous in an era without thermal weapons. Once it spread, it could no longer be controlled.
It is estimated that this should be regarded as a part of preventing the whole city from turning into ghouls. He can only act as the bad guy and suggested in Dr. Swain’s ear:
"They are right to worry. In my experience, these people will indeed go crazy one after another."
The armed knight asked through the doctor: "What should we do?"
"Finally The safe way is to deal with them before they go crazy, but this is too hasty and difficult for anyone to accept," Lynch said with a wry smile, "So we can only find a few sturdy barracks and hold them alone. This way, even if you really go crazy, you don’t need to kill him immediately. Maybe Dr. Swain or others can find a cure later.”
After a moment's hesitation, Lynch added: "But I don't recommend doing this, because based on my experience, the chance of something going wrong is 100%, so..."
Lynch did not continue, Dr. Swain closed his eyes and nodded, sighing deeply.
“Besides, that’s not all.” Lynch’s voice became even lower, “Pay attention to other people.”
"What do you mean?"
"Pay attention to the seemingly normal people here. Those people don't want to die. When those smart people shouted just now, there might be some people with injuries in obscure locations who are hiding their injuries. , and then suddenly broke out, there is a precedent for this."
After saying this, Lin Qi shook his head, knowing that as a few people, it was not suitable to watch others deal with internal affairs at this time, and took the initiative to say:< br>
"Let's go to the drying area first and talk to the citizens and travelers. After you solve the problem, you can go find us over there."
Then he left the barracks with a solemn expression and walked out of the fortress.
Seeing his nervous expression, Officer Natalie frowned, followed up and asked: "Are you worried about the people in these memories? Lynch, please wake up, they have been dead for thousands of years. , there is no point in you worrying about them.”
However, Lynch slowed down and sighed with a wry smile: "I'm not interested in worrying about them, I'm worried about us."
"Huh?"
