Kay led everyone out of the church that had been turned into a slaughterhouse. At the gate, she turned around and ordered: "Everyone, a major change has occurred here. We must go to the branch center where the Doctors Association is stationed to investigate and report the situation. You must be careful on this road, I suspect that the murderers who caused the tragedy here have not left the old city."

"Yes! We have to go to the district center immediately! No matter how stupid that old fool Kellers is, he wouldn't make such a big mistake! Something must have happened!" Makafu said cursingly, then pointed to the doctor The last two in the team ordered: "Kern, Longfu! You two return the same way, go to the upper city to find the city lord for support, and remember to notify the headquarters, go!"

The two nodded, and ran all the way towards the blocked entrance.Yorick looked at the backs of the two leaving, suppressed the uneasiness in his heart, and suggested: "Dear guests, do we really have to go to the district center? Can we kill more than 400 patients in this church in one night? There must be a lot of murderers, and the patrol team that should have appeared did not report this situation. The situation in the division center is likely to be the same as here. For the safety of the two of you, please go back to the city first. "

"Captain Yorick! This is just our guess. After all, only the bodies of patients were found here, which can only prove their death. We are not sure about the situation of the patrol team and the center. If we return to the city center like this, Report this unverified guess to the higher-ups, if it makes a joke, it will be bad." Kay replied dissatisfied.

"But he's right, Mr. Kai. Our numbers are too small, and we can only deal with mobs with little combat power. If there are large groups of enemies, it will be difficult for us to protect them." Another guard spoke, this guard His skin is darker and his face is simple and honest.

"Shut up! Darren!" Kai pushed his glasses, "This is my decision! Don't forget, I am your employer. As a mercenary, you must fulfill the agreement!"

"That's true, but the agreement also states that we are obliged to prevent your dangerous actions and prevent you from approaching dangerous areas." Walker, another mercenary guard, also did not support Kay's plan.

"Hmph, can you prove that the destination of our trip is a dangerous place?" Kay glared at the two of them dissatisfied, then turned to look at Makafu, and asked, "Mr. Makafu, what did you say just now?" Yes, you came to the old city yesterday, so have you been to the temporary headquarters in the center of the city?"

"Of course! During this period of time, I have been going back and forth between the temporary branch in the blockade area and the association headquarters in the upper city, and yesterday was no exception!" Makafu replied loudly, "I can vouch for my personality, I left the branch yesterday At that time, everything was still as usual over there, and nothing unusual happened!"

"How about it? Until last night, it was a safe place. In other words, the situation of the branch is still undecided. Our contract also states that we have the responsibility to guard me during the investigation mission, right?" Kai The corner of Yi's mouth curled up.

"Uh, this..." Daeron and Walker looked at each other, and could only nod their heads, agreeing to Kai's plan.

"Uh, I'm sorry, Your Majesty Maccaf." Yorick bowed, "When did you leave yesterday? Also, did anything special happen along the way?"

"In the evening, what's the matter?" Markaf looked at Yorick who was standing restlessly. "Also, my trip yesterday was smooth. From departure to return, I didn't encounter homeless people who tried to approach us as usual."

"Hobo?" Yorick frowned.

"It's the troublemakers who don't obey the management of the branch. We help them with good intentions and take the risk of infection to treat and take care of those patients. But not everyone appreciates it. Some guys escape from the urban branch. Not enough, I have to give up. Hmph, these bastards attacked our supply team and stole a lot of medicine and food. Several times they even planned to attack doctors like me, even if we brought guards, um, That's why you're called out."

"Then you also arrived here at this time yesterday?" Yorick asked anxiously.

"Yeah, what's the matter?" Makafu was a little impatient, "Okay, if you have anything to say, just say it, we don't have much time to spend here, Captain!"

"Please forgive me!" Yorick bowed, "You two distinguished guests, I suspect that those murderers may have launched an attack yesterday. They wiped out most of the vagrants and attacked the church at night. , and may even have captured the branch! Please leave immediately with your subordinates, this place is too dangerous!"

"Enough!" Markaf interrupted Yorick, "Damn it, why did Hank arrange for a coward like you to come over to be the guard leader?! If you don't want to go, then go back to your king's camp , but later I will praise your superiors for your great ideas along the way!"

"Let's go!" Makafu waved his hand, leading the members of the Medical Association towards the city branch.Kai and the two mercenaries also followed the opponent's team, leaving only Yorick's team standing at the door of the church.

Yorick looked anxiously at the receding team.In the church, he found a large number of strange traces similar to footprints.The shapes of these traces are different, and a small part still retains human characteristics.He didn't know what was left, but the amount was enough to scare him.Coupled with the information he had just talked with Doctor Makafu, it made him even more frightened.After all, it is not difficult to kill all the critically ill patients without any life in one night, but it is quite terrifying to kill the branch of the elite soldiers at the same time.

If it was really what he thought, the group who left just now might be dead.In that case, his guilt would be greater. After all, there was a very good alchemist in it, and the status and power of the Alchemy Association was much greater than that of the Doctors Association.

Yorick stomped his feet to embolden himself, and then ordered the whole team to hurry after the Physicians.Vasilis and the others could only obey their orders, reluctantly striding towards the direction the other party was heading.

After only 10 minutes of chasing, the team found Makafu and others.Yorick looked from a distance and saw that the other party seemed to be talking around something.

"Your Excellency Kay, Your Excellency Maccaf. Excuse me for coming down late... who are you?" Yorick stepped forward to greet, and then he glanced at the things surrounded by the crowd.

It was a corpse, and judging from its swollen and deformed body, it was obviously a patient with 'magic stone disease'.She clutched a dead tree tightly with her hands, as if trying not to be pulled away by something behind her.There are obvious wounds on her body, and it is not difficult to guess that it is the place where the original crystals formed.

"It's the same as the corpse in the church...Mr. Maccafe, it seems that those murderers murdered the patients for the crystals produced in the patient's body." Kay ignored Yorick, and after examining the corpse, he asked Markafe made his point.

"That's true, Ms. Kay. I also think the other party's purpose is this, but what's the use of that crystal? Your Alchemist Association has been studying it for nearly a thousand years, right? Could it be said that something that can explode at any time is so precious? ?"

"I don't know, this disease is originally a rare disease. The cases are quite rare, and the association is not like your physician association. We don't devote too much time and energy to the research of a rare disease." Kai shook his head, Then he continued: "Since there are also victims here, it proves that something must have happened to the patrol team. We have to hurry up and contact the people in the branch as soon as possible!"

"Yeah," Markaf nodded, then turned to look at Yorick: "Okay, Captain, since you intend to fulfill your duties, then please you and your people to open the way first."

"Yes! Your Excellency." Yorick withdrew his gaze from the corpse, suppressed the panic in his heart, and led a group of old and weak recruits to the forefront of the team.

"Open the safety for me! Hold the gun straight! Listen to my order before shooting, understand?!" Yorick ordered as he walked.

"Yes! Sir!" Vassilis and his party answered loudly.

A group of people walked forward cautiously with uneasy steps.It was surprisingly quiet along the way, and soon, near the temporary branch of the association, Canny picked up a whistle.

The bright white whistle was stained with a large amount of blood, knowing something wrong, he quickly handed the whistle to Yorick, who then passed it to Makafu.

Makafu recognized the family crest embossed on it at a glance, which proved that the owner of the whistle was a member of the city lord's guard.And this kind of whistle is usually equipped by patrol members to warn.

"Oops," Markaf sniffed the whistle, "Ms. Kay, something happened to the patrol. Tsk, we have to speed up."

Everyone quickened their pace, and about 15 minutes later, a group of people arrived at the association branch.

Before entering the gate, Makafu knew that something had happened, and the soldiers who had been stationed at the gate in turn disappeared.The gate was left ajar, and the refusal horses that were originally used to seal the gate were thrown aside scatteredly.

"Ms. Kay, I implore you to think twice," Daeron nervously held up his shield and long sword, and pleaded with the alchemist guarding behind him: "The situation of the association branch has obviously changed, I suggest evacuating immediately! Here... .”

Before Darren had finished speaking, he found himself speechless.The surrounding sounds also disappeared, whether it was the sound of the wind or the sound of dead leaves being blown by the wind scraping the ground, he couldn't hear it anymore.

Anxious, he quickly patted the shield with his sword, but no matter how hard he tried, there was no sound.Fortunately, his actions caught the attention of Walker beside him, and the experienced mercenary immediately used gestures to warn everyone.
