I have a bunch of players on Earth - Chapter 1023
1023 Chapter 1,064: Kate City in despair…
“He really said that?”
On the other side, Luke and the others who were waiting anxiously in the Hall asked excitedly.
David quickly nodded and said, “That’s what he said!”
!!
“That’s good, that’s Good!”Luke and the other generals looked at each other, then quickly said to Bundy, “Old Buddy, you have to keep an eye on that Orc of yours!”
David looked at Duke Luke’s expression and sighed slightly in his heart. To be honest, he did not agree that a group of people would place their hopes on an orc of unknown origin, but he could understand it. Now, they really had no other choice… …
Originally, Luke’s Army did not plan to stay in Kate City for long. After all, Kate City was too small, and it was obviously not realistic to raise an army of 100,000 soldiers.
The plan should be for the larger cities in the south, such as Scott City or Bitt City. There would be rich granaries and countless farms there, so it was suitable to replace Blue Dragon City as the next stronghold.
Of course, this kind of migration couldn’t be carried out carelessly. Hence, before they set off, the army sent the few remaining Gryphon troops to investigate.
The few Griffin Knights who went out to investigate the situation the day before returned safely. However, the news they brought back was chilling. Be It Sik City or Bitt City, they had become a dead city, there were rotting corpses everywhere, not a single living thing. The key was that all the land seemed to have been infected.
The soldiers also brought back soil and some biological specimens from the two cities.
The soil had turned a bright purple-black color, emitting a disgusting stench. One could also see that the soil was mixed with strange tentacles of flesh and blood.
According to the soldiers’reports, not only the soil, but also the plants and animals there had this rotten flesh. This flesh was obviously not their own, including the Griffins they brought with them, the Griffin mounts of No. 11 and No. 13 had accidentally eaten the water source there, so they soon began to die of weakness. Halfway through the journey, the stench of decay began to appear on their bodies.
The soldiers had cut open the Griffin’s body at that time, and they found that its internal organs were all gone. Only some disgusting flesh tentacles were slowly wriggling in its stomach… …
According to the Soldiers’accounts, the mages in the army came to the conclusion that the land had been corroded by the evil God’s power. This was not the first time such a situation had occurred. According to the mages, there were records in some long-standing documents.., such a thing had happened in several countries in the western archipelago.
The cult that suddenly appeared offered sacrifices to an unknown evil god. Then, the creatures or people that were offered sacrifices would have such rotten flesh in their bodies. These fanatical believers had even launched a terrifying war that wiped out humanity.
How the war ended and how the power of the curse disappeared were not recorded in many documents. However, there were many rumors. Some said that the sea guardian God had made a move.., some said that the god of light had answered the prayers of the believers and purified that power.
From then on, the cult of the sea and the cult of light flourished and flourished in the western islands for tens of thousands of years.
However, the history was no longer important. What was important was that they did not have the strength to deal with such things. The mages experimented with the rotten soil for a few days and found that the rotten flesh was unusually strong, professional alchemy poison could not even kill it, not even burn it, so they had no choice but to ask the Griffin soldiers to quickly throw it away.
But the bad news was that the infection had begun to appear around them…
Just yesterday, there were reports from below that people were starting to die in the city one after another. The bodies of the dead were swollen as if they had been bloated. When they opened their bodies, didn’t they see the rotten meat that the soldiers had brought back a few days ago?
Suddenly, Luke knew that the situation was serious.
He quickly brought the soldiers to investigate. The results showed that the soil in the surrounding fruit forests had started to become diseased. According to the investigation, the dead people had all eaten fresh fruits that had just ripened in this season.
Therefore, Luke brought the soldiers to all the farms in the surrounding to investigate. The results were pessimistic. The rotten meat had already begun to appear in the soil.
This investigation result was like a bolt from the blue.
Because this not only meant that they could not go to Scott City and Bitt City, they could not stay in Kate City for long… …
There was a problem with the land and they could not grow food. If they could not grow food, what would the soldiers and people in the city eat?
The food was not ripe yet. Everyone was relying on the old food in the city to survive. They were just waiting for the new food to mature and harvest a wave of it. Originally, Luke had also planned to take care of the new food that was about to mature in Kate City, he had planned to set off after resupplying a wave.
But now, he was told that there was something wrong with the soil and that he couldn’t eat it!
How was he going to fix this? Not to mention that the road ahead was cut off, now even the road of retreat in Kate City was problematic. In an instant, the generals felt as if they were shrouded in despair.
In the midst of desperation, Luke suddenly thought of the Beastman that old Bundy had recently been very rare.
He suddenly thought of the absurd story. The ORC had expected this disaster and had come all the way here to protect the descendants of the people who had saved his life. There had to be some rules, right? Since he had predicted this disaster, did it mean that he knew something?
With this thought in mind, they had asked David to go and investigate. Originally, they had only had a glimmer of hope, but the result seemed to be… … Still Okay?
The ORC replied that he had to think about it again. Didn’t this mean that he knew something? At least there was a way out!
Thinking of this, Luke quickly ordered, “Get the soldiers to prepare. Go door to door and collect old grain. Register the population of the city. Be sure to be careful. Get Old Bundy to come for a meeting!”
..
On the other side, Brother Dog was in distress after David left. After all, he had bragged. He had to be distressed… …
He knew a way out…
What should he do? Now…
Brother Dog realized that he could no longer pretend to be an ostrich. Even if it was for sunny, he could not continue to pretend to be dead. He had to think of a way to leave this place.
Looking at Brother Dog’s extremely conflicted expression and not even drinking the meat soup, sunny looked at him curiously. “Oppa, what you said to Uncle David just now… Is It True?”
Brother Dog was stunned when he heard that. He looked at Sunny in shock. After David heard his ambiguous words, he excitedly went out to report. In the end, this little girl in front of him actually suspected him at the first moment?
Looking at Brother Dog’s eyes, sunny also stuck out her tongue in embarrassment. She smiled and said, “That… that, actually I know… you’re not an orc, right?”
