Factory in the north of the city.
A room.
Leo's forehead was against the wall, his body trembling slightly, as if he was enduring some great pain.
Creak——
The door was pushed open from the outside.
Sickly Capricorn leaned against the door frame with his arms around his chest.
"It has already begun."
"If nothing unexpected happens, you will be able to return to the abyss in a few days."
Leo took a deep breath and finally stopped trembling so much.
"This time, I owe you a favor."
Capricorn said lightly: "The president is a little disappointed with your performance."
"You'd better think of a way to make up for it."
"Sagittarius has been eyeing your position for a long time."
Leo sneered: "Sagittarius? I can take him down with one hand."
Then, he rubbed his face: "How is the status of the void beast?"
Capricorn raised his hand and made an OK gesture: "I have been checking it regularly, there will be no problem."
Leo said in a deep voice: "If there is a problem with the void beast, all will be lost."
Capricorn nodded: "I know."
"You take a break first, I'll go see where my cute babies are spread."
After that, Capricorn closed the door and left.
A dull sound came from the room behind him.
Capricorn shook his head.
Suddenly, he saw a sneaky guy at the corner.
Capricorn reached out and gently probed, and immediately grabbed the other person in his hand.
The man shuddered: "Sir, I came in to use the restroom."
Capricorn looked up and down at the other person twice.
It was indeed the guard outside the door.
Seeing that the other person was shaking with fear, Capricorn showed disdain.
"The company is really a bunch of good-for-nothings."
Capricorn snorted, let go of the guard and left alone.
After Capricorn walked away, the man patted his chest.
"Fortunately, my acting is good."
"If it were the King of Dharma's trash, they would definitely be exposed."
King of Dharma: "???"
The man looked out and confirmed that Capricorn had left. He tiptoed towards the room Capricorn had just entered.
...
Several soldiers who had just completed the rotation of Penglai City returned to Snow City for vacation.
Even though it was Penglai City, it was still in the abyss, and it was very depressing every day.
Although Snow City could not be compared with the inland cities, it was much better than the abyss.
Several people were talking about where to go after drinking.
A staggering mercenary came over and bumped into one of them when he passed by them.
"Fuck! Are you blind?"
The soldier was furious.
He just pushed the other person lightly, and the mercenary fell to the ground, motionless.
The soldier kicked him twice in confusion, and when he saw that the mercenary still had no reaction, he turned him over.
"Damn!"
Several people were shocked.
The mercenary's face was full of pea-sized pustules and blisters, even on his neck, and some of them had ulcerated.
"Bad luck!"
Ignoring the unconscious mercenary, several people walked towards the nearest tavern.
"Five glasses of beer."
The soldier sat at the bar and called the bartender.
The bartender quickly brought the beer.
The soldier accidentally noticed that there were several very familiar pustules on the bartender's face.
The bartender raised his hand and grabbed them twice, but didn't care.
The soldier frowned and drank the beer in the glass slowly.
"What's wrong? You are worried."
The teammate next to him asked with concern.
The soldier shook his head: "Nothing."
The opponent bumped him with his shoulder, then pointed at the bunny girl not far away, showing a smile that a man knows everything.
The soldier also smiled, and the discomfort was relieved a lot.
"Maybe I think too much."
The soldier thought to himself.
Plop --
Suddenly, the man at the next table fell to the ground.
His body kept twitching and foaming at the mouth.
The soldier turned his head and saw that the man's face was also full of pustules.
No one in the tavern cared.
They thought he just drank too much.
However, the second, third, fourth...
People kept falling unconscious.
Someone threw the glass in the glass to the ground.
"The wine is poisonous!"
It caused an uproar among the guests.
The bartender was at a loss for a moment: "It's not poisonous, how could it be poisonous!"
He kept scratching his face while defending himself.
Why is it so itchy?
"You...you..."
The soldier pointed at the bartender's face and retreated in fear.
"What's wrong with me?"
The bartender looked at the mirror beside him in confusion.
He saw that half of his face in the mirror had been scratched.
Pustules kept bulging on the other half of his face.
Some had already burst, and white and green liquid splattered everywhere.
Plop——
The bartender was so scared that he sat on the ground.
The guests in the tavern also found that their bodies wereSomething strange happened.
It was itchy at first, and pustules appeared on the skin after scratching it.
"Go, damn it!"
The soldier hurriedly left the tavern with his companion.
As soon as he walked out of the door, he felt a little itchy on his neck.
He reached out and scratched it, and a pustule broke.
The soldier's face changed drastically.
...
Inspection team.
The hook-nosed captain was looking at the relevant information about the industry of the Snow City Company.
A member of the inspection team hurried into the office.
"Captain, it's not good."
"An infectious disease has appeared in the city."
"Blisters and pustules all over the body."
"Severe illness can lead to death."
"Now one-third of the people in the city are infected."
The hook-nosed captain put down the information in his hand and frowned.
An infectious disease will appear in Snow City?
It's unheard of.
In such a harsh environment in Snow City, what kind of bacteria can survive?
What's more, the speed of infection is so fast.
He smelled a hint of conspiracy.
"Take me to the scene."
The captain got up and hurriedly left the office with his men.
At the same time, in order to avoid alerting the enemy, Qin Ze and Lu Shui returned to the scholar's residence.
As for why it was the scholar's residence.
In the words of Edge Water, the scholar's house is very large and suitable for group activities.
More importantly, you can eat and drink for free.
Edge Water has already informed Brother Yuanzi of the news that Leo is in the factory in the north of the city in the group.
Brother Yuanzi seems to be very busy and has not replied yet.
The scholar is sitting on the sofa reading a book.
Edge Water is bored and adjusts the TV, waiting for Brother Yuanzi to reply.
Qin Ze is flipping through the book on the surface, but in fact he is communicating with the son of the version in his head.
"I have confirmed for you that Leo is indeed in the factory."
"The specific location is the innermost room on the first floor of the basement of the warehouse in Area C."
"I heard a little bit of the conversation between Capricorn and Leo."
"Leo was asking about the Void Beast, and Capricorn said that he has been checking the Void Beast, and there will be no problem."
"Capricorn has only checked that box occasionally during this period, could it be..."
Qin Ze narrowed his eyes.
Is there a Void Beast in the box?
Qin Ze suddenly knew the purpose of Capricorn's coming to Snow City.
It is impossible for Leo to return to the Abyss through the Abyss Gate.
The defense and inspection there are very strict, and Leo will be exposed as soon as he appears.
So he can only find another way.
And the Void Beast can connect the Abyss and the world, which is a good choice.
"I'm going to the bathroom."
Qin Ze stood up.
This news must be told to Brother Yuanzi as soon as possible.
The beast tide broke out in Snow City, and the consequences were disastrous.
