The Truth of Magic

519 The real culprit of the infection

Zhao Xu’s eyes lit up as he activated the detection vision of the undead.

however, from the drunkard at the edge of the corner to the hotel’s butler, everything was the same as usual.

He gained nothing.

There were no undead creatures, or the other party had blocked detection spells.

Or perhaps, it was not the doing of a vampire.

“Move!” He shouted. Suddenly, a shout came from the door.

The crowd in the hotel’s corridor was pushed aside by a group of new patrolling guards. The leader was a tall and thin warrior.

He was still yawning, but when he saw the body on the ground, his expression became serious. He turned around and asked, ” have you informed the coroner? ”

“We’re almost there.” The hotel’s butler said nervously.

To them, it was fine if they died in a fight. The tavern’s grudges and grievances were settled in the tavern. Naturally, no one would go out of their way to find guards.

However, this kind of accidental death meant that their hotel would have to spend a lot of money.

The few players who rarely came to the tavern downstairs to join in the fun did not expect such a murder to happen in the hotel above. They also came over to join in the fun and used their reasoning knowledge on earth to analyze the case.

However, the patrol Leader did not pay any attention to the players ‘commotion. He only calmly scanned the dozens of people who came to join in the fun, silently remembering their figures and thinking about if there were any suspicious people.

During this period, several local ruffians who relied on their friendship from eating and drinking with each other also held beer glasses and walked over to the patrol team to join in the fun. They also inquired about the news on their side.

Vivian was standing quietly behind Zhao Xu, suppressing the urge to use detect evil.

as for the white dragon serus, he was looking at the scene in front of him in boredom.

To put it bluntly, death was a common occurrence in the ice plains and mountains.

If so many people died and there was such a big fuss, then they would have to rush to the funeral venue every day.

“You humans are really making a mountain out of a molehill every day.” Serus complained to Zhao Xu.

To be honest, the two of them had just destroyed a vampire’s corpse and erased all traces. At this time, seeing a group of people making a fuss over a human corpse, it was a little confused.

you have to look at the location. You’re in a human town now. Zhao Xu said, ” if you were on earth, this would only be more exaggerated.

Zhao Xu explained the differences to the White Dragon. Suddenly, something came to his mind, and his eyes started to become sharp.

A vampire might not be the only one who could leave a bloody hole in the neck.

At this time, the coroner also left his warm bed in the middle of the night and rushed to the scene.

the crowd didn’t disperse, and after the patrol team checked the situation, they put away the bodies.

look at the place where the body just fell and the scratch marks on the ground. One of them is not natural. It must have been done intentionally by the deceased before he died.

A player who rarely stayed in the hotel in the middle of the night commented.

“The prerequisite for this is that they know each other.” Another person retorted.

In an instant, the three or four people who had come together started to have different opinions. that’s not right. Even if we don’t know each other, we can still describe the characteristics of the murderer.

you’re awesome. Show me what kind of human characteristics you can find with a scratch.

“Maybe it means straight hair.”

“You’re just being unreasonable.”

The coroner listened to the argument of several players who were standing close to him and kept arguing, which kept affecting his freshman. He couldn’t help but be angry. be quiet.

Only then did the argument stop.

After examining the wound a few more times, he nodded and concluded, ” “I’m guessing this is ...”

“Rat.” Suddenly, a half-orc in the corner said loudly.

The coroner looked at the half-orc carefully and nodded. that’s right, it’s a wound caused by the teeth of a mouse.

“What?”

“you must be joking.”

“How is that possible?”

Everyone was in disbelief.

Although the dead man on the ground did not seem to have the physique of an expert, his basic physique was above average. How could he be killed by a mouse’s bite?

It was a little too fast with the plague.

“No, how can a rat leave such wide teeth marks?” The first Ranger player who had participated in truth retorted. At this time, he walked to the dead man’s side and looked at the wound again.

As for the family of the deceased, they had just passed out and were still unconscious.

The orc who had just made the assertion laughed on the spot. With his loud voice, the door and windows almost shook.

half-orcs were one of the seven major races that players could choose from.

Their numbers were only second to the three popular races, humans, elves, and dwarves, and they were more numerous than halflings, half-elves, and gnomes.

Half-orcs were essentially the offspring of humans and orcs. Apart from the orc tribe, only the human community would accept half-orcs.

However, this half-orc was wearing chain armor, a giant axe, and a warrior tattoo on his chest. He was obviously a ” barbarian.

It was also because of his identity that the drunkards present did not dare to rashly berate him.

Otherwise, with the primitive characteristics of the beastmen’s dark skin, slanted foreheads, protruding jaws, exposed teeth, and thick body hair, they would more or less be rejected by civilized society.

At this moment, all the gazes in the tavern fell on the half-orc barbarian, waiting for his answer.

...

“Who is it?”

“I don’t know him. He’s probably an outsider.”

“They should be players. A half-orc who has become a barbarian won’t be able to analyze the situation rationally.” The player in the corner commented.

After all, the nickname of the Barbarian class was ” Berserker ” and ” fighter “, not ” wise man ” of the ” wizard ” class.

At this moment, the Barbarian player realized that everyone was attracted to him. He looked at the body on the ground that was gradually turning cold and said, ” “Beastmen can do this.”

“Beastmen?”

At this moment, the people in the corridor Hall all felt their hair stand up.

The most ancient legend about werecreatures was the “werewolf.”

werecreatures were humanoids or humongous creatures that could transform into animals, and they were not limited to humans.

“It’s actually a Beastman.” Serus also sighed.

They were all preconceived.

...

Without checking their wounds up close, they were led to the vampires closest to them.

However, it was a little confused at this time. is the werecreature powerful? ”

Zhao Xu shook his head. in their animal form, beastmen look like stronger animals, but that’s all.

“What are the general ones?” Serus had never come into contact with werecreatures on the Icefield before, so he was somewhat curious.

Bearmen, Tigermen, werewolves, pigmen, and the ratmen that the other party mentioned. zhao xu explained.

“This sounds like a bunch of trash.” Therus the White Dragon couldn’t help but sniffed out some smoke from his nostrils and said, “then what are they afraid of? It can’t be that the werecreatures are able to attack the city, right?”

no matter how powerful the monster was, it would like the sense of security in a human town. it was also here that they didn’t have to be wary of the arrows that could be shot at them at any time.

“in theory, yes.” Zhao Xu corrected him, “but this ...

“The point is, after being attacked by the werecreatures, you may be infected with ‘beastification’, and then you will become one of the werecreatures, and at the same time, you will have the ability to spread it,”

“Even the later generations will only be beastmen, which is natural-born beastmen.” zhao xu said, ” this is a type of curse that will last forever. ”

“I see.” the white dragon serus also sighed.

In that case, the vampires that seemed to have many flaws were actually better.

if it was a “vampire,” then there might be ignorant girls coming to him. However, if it were werecreatures, especially the more wretched ratmen, they would definitely be despised and rejected, afraid of being infected.

At this moment, the family of the deceased slowly woke up. She looked at her husband, who was already cold and stiff, and cried on the spot, ” “If you die, what will we do?”

you promised me. Besides, our child has just been born. Yingluo, what do you want me to do? ”

For a moment, the wife’s miserable voice reverberated through the area, making the female players ‘eyes turn red as they searched for their wallets.

“Mr. Barbarian, do you have a way to find the murderer and avenge the dead?” Suddenly, a question was asked from the crowd below the stage.

The Barbarian nu lang, who was standing on the stage, couldn’t help but reveal an awkward expression.

In fact, he was just here to throw a stone to ask for directions. He just happened to encounter a problem where he just happened to know the industry and showed his hand, while at the same time increasing the residents ‘favorability.

As for finding the real murderer and solving the case, that was not something he was good at.

“Idiot.”

At this moment, red maple, a female druid player who was also a member of pale dawn, sneered.

in her opinion, it was meaningless for her companions to go up and analyze the conclusions that other people were about to come to if the problem could not be truly solved.

She also swept her gaze over the crowd, secretly thinking of a way to break it.

President, I want to take revenge for this poor widow. At this time, Vivian’s voice became cold and full of murderous intent.

the holy avenger in her hand suddenly shone again, and the corridor suddenly lit up.

“It’s not like there’s no other way.” All of a sudden, the Barbarian on the stage, furious wave, shouted, ” the werecreatures have damage reduction abilities. They can only be broken by silver-plated weapons. If everyone is willing to accept it, take a small knife and cut a wound on everyone’s palm. Whoever heals immediately will be the one.”

“Where did this stupid player come from?”

The White Dragon almost cursed.

They were a group of powerful creatures, and all of them had damage reduction skills.

When Zhao Xu heard this stupid idea, he couldn’t help but laugh and shake his head.

Serus and Vivian both had damage reduction abilities.

He didn’t, but the point was that even if he gave up on defense, the other party was unlikely to penetrate his force field Armor (sorcery robe + shield spell), which added up to a level 12 armor and shield.

Even if he managed to cut through it, it would still depend on whether it was a magic weapon. If it was not, the damage would not even be qualified to pass through his Star Cloak.

When they saw Zhao Xu quietly walk up the stage, everyone’s eyes immediately fell on him.

“Which green onion is this?”

I don’t know. He can’t be a mage if he’s wearing a robe, right? ”

“He’s probably a player, but can the player’s hidden spells be of any use?”
