Extraordinary Voyage Chapter 427: Sudden strange disease
East part of the Golden Sea, private port No. 3 of the Dragoon Pirate Regiment.
Although there are no large dry docks that are expensive to build, other facilities include camps, headquarters, training grounds, blacksmith workshops... and even the pirate group’s own tavern.
can fully meet the short-term survival needs of the pirates.
"Ah, ah, ah..."
哐——!
"Quickly, help me hold him down, don't let him continue to go crazy and hurt himself!"
In a building made of bamboo, four strong pirates dressed in uniform black uniforms swarmed up with Kong Wu, and held on to a young man who was dressed like them.
Calvin, who was giving orders, pulled out a relatively soft strip of cotton cloth, and fastened the young man who was held down on the bed until he could not move at all.
"It's a weird thing, how did this kid Jason become so strong? The four of us almost couldn't hold him."
"Don’t talk nonsense, quickly open his mouth and let me pour the sleeping potion into him."
As the actual second disciple of Ivan, Calvin's position in the "Dragon Cavalry Pirate Group" is detached, and the pirates who attacked him did not dare to neglect and quickly follow suit.
until a few minutes later.
It was not easy to wait until the effect of the medicine took place, and when the young pirate who was frantic on the bed slowly fell asleep, several people breathed a long sigh of relief.
However, looking at the growing tumor on his neck, even jumping up and down, Calvin frowned, knowing that he has a long way to go.
嘭——
step on.. step on.. step on..
The door of the room was suddenly opened, and several high-level extraordinary men from the privateer fleet, including Milan, headed by Ivan, who was dressed as a white knight in a white mask, entered in file.
Seeing Aiwen’s arrival, Calvin seemed to have found the backbone, and his brows immediately stretched out:
"Teacher!"
beside him, several pirates who attacked at the same time saluted respectfully:
"Leader Master!"
"Well, everyone has worked hard."
waved his hand and walked over to the bed. Ivan stared at the young man on the bed who had fallen asleep because of the effect of the medicine, but still showed pain on his face.
turned around and asked Calvin, who arrived one step earlier after receiving the news:
"Is this the patient with the strange disease? How is the situation?"
"Yes, teacher! In fact, he was only the first to have the disease, and he is also the one with the most serious condition. He is almost completely mad.
There are three fleet sailors who have the same illness in the other rooms, and they can barely control themselves. This is the case of all of them, take a look. "
took a brief look at the stack of cases handed over by Calvin, and Irving's brows couldn't help but furrow deeply.
Most areas of the Golden Sea have a tropical oceanic climate, which is not friendly to the Nimmansters who have lived mainly in the high latitudes of the Old World since they were young.
Malaria, yellow fever, blood dysentery, edema, colds, parasitic diseases... and all kinds of weird diseases are hard to prevent.
The strange disease on these sailors is obviously not any of the common tropical diseases, and...
Looking at the weird growth of the tumor on his neck, Ivan immediately ordered:
"The looting activities of Private Port No. 3 shall be suspended. All living materials shall be supplied by the headquarters of the pirate group, and personnel shall be restricted from entering and exiting, and shall be implemented immediately!"
The fleet executives and private port managers around him solemnly promised:
"Yes, my head!"
Although they did not realize the seriousness of the problem for the time being, it did not prevent them from unconditionally implementing Aiwen's order, and they left after taking the order.
stared at the young man on the bed for a while, and Ivan ordered:
"Alec and Calvin come with me, the others are gone."
"Yes, my lord!"
a moment later.
Aiwen, Milan, Alek, and Calvin have come to the command post built on the island.
are all knowing their own people, Aiwen did not conceal any more, and snapped his fingers directly.
slap——
A wave-like brilliance rose, automatically washing all four people.
As a "living chemistry" wizard who is good at dealing with various creatures, the work of sterilization is as easy as a daily meal for him.
"Okay, Captain Alec, please tell me about the situation from beginning to end."
After confirming that the disinfection was completed, Ivan sat on the chair with his fingers crossed, ready to find a way to solve this sudden big trouble from the root cause.
Although the disease on the four sailors is troublesome, the root cause is nothing more than a pathogen.
It may be troublesome from the point of view of medicine, but from the point of view of witchcraft, it's just a matter of how much Ivan is willing to spend.
Aiwen is now more related to the source of the disease. Is it the end or is it about to get worse?
"My lord, this goes back to three days ago when we carried out a raid..."
Very obviously, when talking about what happened that night, Alek's expression was obviously a little uncomfortable. One can imagine how strong the impact was on such an old pirate.
"That is a small town of Hilius on Holguin Island..."
Following Alek’s narration, the thoughts of several people were quickly brought to the weird rainy night before.
In a drizzle, when Alek saw the seven or eight weird "weirds" who were all normal humans walking outside the town.
As a veteran old pirate, how could Alek be so desperate to explore the secret behind it?
People who are too curious in the extraordinary world often don’t live long.
Especially when Sparrow, who was originally a wizard, analyzed for him:
"It is a very evil and extraordinary aura. It may not be their own consciousness that dominates their bodies.
Since I have been in contact with the sentry before nightfall, it takes only a few hours for the abnormality to occur, and the power below the official transcendent absolutely cannot do this. "
Hearing this, even though there was a member of his own pirate group, Alek did not dare to take a huge risk to bring him back.
glanced at the town that was half of the searched, Alek gritted his teeth fiercely, tried to restrain his greed for wealth, and decisively ordered:
"Send an emergency signal, everyone should evacuate the town immediately!"
Although several pirates who followed him heard the weird movement, they did not have the eyes of Alek that could penetrate the night.
However, even after hesitating a little because of the treasure, he immediately executed the captain's order. To survive in a place where there is no strong suppression by the church like the New World, any disturbances cannot be taken lightly.
The guy who doesn't care about the warnings of the strong, the grass at the head of the grave is already three feet high.
Next moment.
咻——
The sharp copper whistle cut through the night sky and passed into the ears of all the pirates.
When Alek and the others returned to the entrance of the town along the main road, the pirates scattered around the town had already retreated here after receiving the signal.
Most of them carry large bags and small bags.
There were even pirates who brought back four other sentry sent to the town in advance. They were found from the corner of the alley and they were as asleep as the townspeople.
"What happened to the leader? There are still a lot of gold coins to find."
No matter how reluctant you are, you must obey the captain's command when plundering. This is the iron rule of piracy.
After executing the command, it is no problem to ask the reason again.
"There is unknown danger in the town, we will withdraw immediately..."
suddenly.
"Wow..."
"Quack..."
"huhuhu..."
The barking of dogs, crows, or the roar of the storm in the sky suddenly filled everyone's ears.
Then everyone saw that one of the dark clouds above their heads fell into the town so lightly, covering most of the town.
After a few breaths, various roars of people and beasts, messy running noises came from all over the town, and... are rushing towards the entrance of the town!
Everyone's complexion changed, and they all looked back in the direction of the town.
Alek even directly ordered:
"Musket, get ready!"
The pirates no longer questioned Alek’s decision, and immediately picked up the unfired rifle with a rain cover, and placed an array in the wide area at the entrance of the town.
When they saw the "things" running out of the small town, they were shocked at the same time, and they were glad that they had obeyed the order to retreat and left the town in time.
Because they could see clearly through the gas lamp at the entrance of the town.
The ugliness of those guys who ran out of the dark clouds that enveloped the town simply refreshed their three views.
The residents of the small town are still the original residents, but everyone has a head-sized nauseous sac on their body, or on their shoulders, necks, chests...
"Woo--!"
"Roar——!"
roared like a crazy beast, and flew toward the pirate's position.
"Fire!"
bang! boom! boom! boom! boom! boom! ...
Two hundred bright red lines of fire are intertwined into a dense firepower net, piercing through the rain curtain, as if a fiery red hammer suddenly interrupted the charge of those weird people.
At the same time, Alek raised his right hand high and clenched it suddenly.
Boom! boom! boom! boom! ...
On the three pirate ships on the shore, the pirates who had been ready to support launched a salvo. The howling shells smashed into the crowd of "cyst freaks", and the huge kinetic energy easily tore them to pieces.
Even the dark cloud covering the small town slowly dissipated in this earth-shattering bombardment.
When the dust settles.
Looking at the small town that has been quiet again, no one dared to propose to continue collecting loot, even if it was a pirate who regarded money as fate.
"Take a few sleepy brothers, let's retreat!"
There is no one at this time, and I want to have anything to do with this strange town.
Time back to now.
"The four brothers who were brought back from the beginning are the four brothers who have been brought back.
When they slowly woke up at first, we thought they were all right, but we didn't expect that their condition gradually got worse.
The most serious one, in just three days, almost completely lost consciousness like the townspeople. "
Alek's tone was a bit heavy, and he hadn't expected that a good raid would turn out like this.
"Okay, I see, there is no error in your decision."
Ivan relieved Alek and pulled the people out in time to avoid greater losses~IndoMTL.com~ Alek has fulfilled his obligations as the captain.
leaned up towards the back of the chair.
It seems that while closing his eyes and thinking about the problem, Ivan has connected the seagull stationed near the Holguin Island through the psychic network, and can easily see the movement on the island.
"Sure enough..."
At this time, not only the small towns visited by Alek and the others are in a mess, but the five small towns belonging to the Hilius people spread over the entire island, and now they have all turned into hell!
Whether it is the Hilius ruler in the small town or the Anuma slaves they enslaved, they have all become what Alek calls the "cyst freak".
Although it is not in the colony center, Hilius's reaction is not slow.
The priests of the "eternal fire" have already landed on Holguin Island. With the cooperation of heavily armed soldiers, they began **** suppression of those infected like wild beasts in the name of cleaning up the demons.
bang! boom! boom! ...
"Roar!"
"Ah!"
and in the wide field of vision composed of many seagulls.
"Flame" is no longer confined to this isolated Holguin Island. The sea routes in the Golden Sea, and even the coastal areas of the New World, have seen turbulence.
At this point, Ivan realized that the severity of the situation far exceeded his expectations.
"The rainy night that the storm bottle could not predict, before the strange things appeared, the strange movement like a dog, a crow, and a storm, was full of cysts and involuntary human beings...
There is also this kind of transmission speed that is almost like flying. It is simply that someone has spread a dangerous source of infection on a large scale!
Cthulhu? The evil black wizard? Unknown forces? What is the purpose? "
