Soul echo

Chapter 386 The Town Under the Night
The boat that Lily and Lilian took took them far enough away, and they didn't stay where they were waiting for Zhong Ye. Considering that Zhong Ye needs to go back to Constantia first and then come to meet them, their rendezvous time may be It will be a day later.

After breakfast early in the morning, they set off from Schaffhausen, and it was almost evening, during which time they hadn't eaten anything.

After hearing from the two fishermen that the lake has 'numerous dead bodies', they also gave up the idea of ​​fishing and barbecue. However, Zhong Ye is usually in charge of hunting in the team, and Lilian has never learned from him. Knowledge, which has led to the embarrassment that they have nothing to eat now.

They discarded the dry food and fresh water they had carried with them, because those things might have been infected with the virus.

——Although with Lilian's limited knowledge of virology, she feels that the virus on it may have died long ago, but even on the earth, there are many viruses that can survive for a few days when exposed to the air, "Soul "Echo" has magic, so why can't it create "Extraordinary Plague"?
Don't be afraid of [-], just in case, her death is just a waste of a chance to be resurrected, but if Lily is killed...

Therefore, Lilian claimed that she had written down part of the map before, and there would probably be a human settlement such as a village or town nearby, and they might be able to get there before it completely darkened.

In fact, she saw the town on the attached map of the [Plague Buster - Spread] mission, and even in this kind of place, there were signs of some infected people.

They sailed on the lake for about three, four, and 10 minutes, and they traveled more than ten kilometers, but there were still people infected with the "living corpse plague" in the town, and the spread was a bit too scary—this It is still based on the premise that the transportation in "Echo of Soul" is not well developed.

What's more, it's winter now, even if it's close to spring, if the ice and snow don't melt for a day, for the people living in this place, it will always be 'winter', and they won't go out for travel and activities.

When Lilian and the others arrived in that town, it was already late and the gate was closed.

Fortunately, the walls of this small town are not high. With Lilian and the others' strength, they easily climbed over.

No one noticed that outsiders had entered the town. The sentinel standing on the arrow tower didn't know if he was asleep, and he didn't notice any movement.

call!
Lilian took out her own torch, and blew on it to ignite the uncertain light again, causing the flame to rise again.

This little thing that was handed down from the East hundreds of years ago is a must-have for every adventurer when they go out on an adventure. It can not only be used as a fire source, but also a lighting tool in a pinch-just like now .

The faint fire light illuminated the surrounding scenery, and the night of this small town was no different from other towns. After night fell, the whole town fell into darkness.

Lily didn't take off the mask, because she knew very well that the streets in this kind of place definitely don't smell very good. The mask can not only block the smell, but also restrict her sight, preventing herself from seeing things on the ground.

...just as if you stepped on the dirt!

Shivering slightly, Lily squeezed her fists.

After she calmed down, she heard her own clear heartbeat and breathing, and besides that, there was also a little coughing sound from the surrounding rooms.

She had never experienced this kind of strange tranquility, even during the time in Paris, she lived in the court most of the time and never went to poorer urban areas at night.

And she had been tense before, and the rare relaxation time was either sleeping, eating, or studying and exercising.

After leaving with Zhong Ye, she realized that this world was not as safe as she imagined, and this was also her motivation to work hard.

Because she wants to protect her relatives and family in this increasingly chaotic world.

To do this, she must at least become an 'extraordinary'.

In a dark town, there are only a few places with lights, and such places are not difficult to find.

In many cases, this kind of place is either a tavern, an adventurer's home, or a noble residence.

Lilian and the others were lucky. They found a house with light shining through the cracks in the door and windows. They opened the door and entered, and found that it was probably a hotel and tavern.

"Who?"

At this time, everyone sitting in the hall turned their heads to look at the gate, and saw two heavily armed guys in shock.

Not only wearing a helmet, but also wearing a strange mask, and the weapons on his body look particularly scary.

The people who were about to stand up shrank back again, but when they saw Lilian and the others take off their masks, several people could not help but sit up straight.

The smell in the tavern was not pleasant, not only the smell of wine, but also the smell of urine, feet, and body odor from those people. Lily almost couldn't help but put the mask back on.

"Give us two meals and a room."

Lilian took out a gold coin from the purse, "It's not bad."

Seeing this gold coin, the tavern owner, who looked as if he was about to say something, swallowed his words back, with a smile on his face, "Okay, okay, I'll get ready!"

Under the illumination of the lights, the gold coins seem to exude a charming and intellectual light, which attracts everyone's attention.

It wasn't until the tavern owner put away the gold coin that the others swallowed, and quietly turned their gazes to Lily and the others who were sitting in a corner of the tavern.

One shot is a gold coin, it is obviously impossible to say that they have no money, and looking at their beautiful appearance, people will imagine them as two young ladies who have run away from home, or the young lady and her close friend maid.

——It's just that their strength may be 'a bit' different from the rumored Jiao Didi's noble lady.

"I have a question."

Noticing people's gazes, Lily and Lilian exchanged glances, then took out a silver coin from the purse, and flicked it with their fingers, "This is a reward."

The shining silver coins are flying in the air. Although they are not as attractive as gold coins, they can also attract people's attention.

In this small town, gold coins are something they may not see once in ten years, and silver coins are the most valuable thing in their hands.

"If you have any questions, feel free to ask!" Someone said, patting his chest, "As long as we know, we will definitely say it!"

Lily caught the silver coin, and with a sweet smile, the people were fascinated—they had never seen such a beautiful person before!
"We are now tracking down a group of people, they will go out once a year in spring and autumn, but we don't know whether they move on foot or by boat, and we don't know whether they have passed through here. If you have any clues, or have seen After a group of corpses drift down, who can tell us who this silver coin belongs to."

As soon as the voice fell, a person slapped the table and stood up, "Me! I've seen it!"

Lily's eyes swept across his face, and she snorted softly, "Lie!"

The man panicked for a moment, and argued: "I, I didn't lie... I did see it!"

"Then tell me, how many corpses did you see? Where did they drift down? What did they look like?"

A series of questions hit the man's mind, his mouth moved a few times, and he sat back downcast.

There was a lot of sneering around him, making his face hot.

If he could cheat money, everyone would admire him, but like now, not only did he fail to cheat, but was caught on the spot, then others would only laugh at him.

"You're talking about... the ship that was overturned by a water monster last year?"

Water monster?Capsized ship?
These two keywords touched Lily and Lilian's nerves and attracted their attention.

Lily shook the silver coin in her hand, tilted her head, "Tell me?"
