Chapter 171 Transparent Bug
After learning about this strange disease, the Dragon Slaying Sect immediately sent disciples to investigate and invited many doctors to study the corpses, but these corpses were only bones except for skin, and nothing could be found.
"Have you asked the friends or relatives of these dead people?" Qin Feng asked.
Ye Zhi nodded: "There is nothing special. Most of these dead people do not know each other and have no intersection in life. This strange disease seems to be random."
"Oh, speaking of it, these dead people have one thing in common, they have a big appetite." Ye Zhi suddenly remembered.
"Big appetite? How big?" Qin Feng asked.
"Eating all day long." Ye Zhi said casually.
It is normal for warriors to have a big appetite. Practicing martial arts consumes a lot of energy. Ordinary meals cannot provide enough energy. The higher the cultivation level, the bigger the appetite. Most warriors with high cultivation level eat natural treasures or elixirs.
And after seeing Yang Xi's abnormal appetite, Qin Feng didn't think that these warriors could have a big appetite.
"That's what I said. I don't think this strange disease has anything to do with the warrior's appetite." Ye Zhi smiled and didn't take it to heart.
So far, most of the deaths were warriors in the Kaimai realm. Only in the past two days has a warrior in the Juli realm died. This strange disease should only spread among low-level warriors. Warriors in the Zhenyuan realm have Zhenyuan to protect their bodies and are immune to all diseases. This is why Ye Zhi dared to stay in this small town for a long time.
"There is no news after so many days of continuous exploration. It seems that I can only return to the sect to report." Ye Zhi sighed.
"Hua La, Hu La!" In a restaurant, a warrior in the ninth level of the Juli realm grabbed a monster leg with both hands and bit it.
"Waiter, why don't you serve the wine and food quickly? Are you going to starve me to death?" The warrior shouted loudly.
"I'm coming, I'm coming, please forgive me, the food and wine will be here soon!"
Ye Zhi looked up and said, "You've eaten so much, how many days have you not eaten?"
The warrior drank a jar of strong liquor and stood up suddenly, staggering down the stairs.
"Sir, you've taken the wrong road, that's the kitchen!" The waiter hurriedly followed.
However, the giant strength warrior did not stop but instead accelerated and rushed directly into the kitchen.
"Sir...ah! Someone's dead!" The waiter who followed into the kitchen suddenly screamed.
Ye Zhi and Qin Feng looked at each other and rushed into the restaurant.
"What's going on..." Ye Zhi asked.
"That...that...a dead person!" The waiter pointed to the water tank in the corner in horror, and a dried-up corpse was actually soaked in the water tank.
Several chefs in the kitchen were also frightened and collapsed to the ground. It was too weird, too weird.
"What on earth happened!" Ye Zhi looked around. This was the closest he had ever come to a strange disease.
"I... I don't know. This guest suddenly broke into the kitchen. When I followed him in, I saw him drinking water from the water tank. Suddenly he became like this." The waiter said.
Qin Feng fished out the body: "The flesh and blood in the body were all sucked out, leaving only a skin bag and a skeleton."
"Same symptoms, this strange disease is getting worse and worse!" Ye Zhi took a breath of cold air. The ninth level of the giant strength realm is the highest level of cultivation among the dead so far.
The warriors of the ninth level of the giant strength realm are only a thin line away from the true essence realm. If even the ninth level of the giant strength realm cannot resist this strange disease, wouldn't it be dangerous for even the warriors of the true essence realm?
"No, no, the river..." Suddenly, there were bursts of screams in the town.
"What's wrong with the river?"
"There are so many corpses, so dense, the whole river is full of corpses!"
Ye Zhi's face changed drastically when he heard the conversation in the town, and he jumped up. When he stood on the highest roof in the center of the town, his face was pale. The whole river was blocked by corpses!
Qin Feng couldn't help but take a breath of cold air. The corpses in the river looked exactly the same as the people who died in the town!
"What is upstream of the river?" Qin Feng asked.
"Sanye Town!" Ye Zhi's eyes were full of fear.
Sanye Town was the first place where strange diseases appeared. The Dragon Slaying Sect sent several True Yuan Realm disciples there. Now that there are so many corpses upstream, the people in Sanye Town are probably here.
"Curse, this must be a curse. This town has been cursed. I want to leave, I want to leave!" A warrior screamed and ran straight to the river.
Qin Feng looked at the warrior thoughtfully. When the warrior touched the water, his body suddenly shrank and turned into a mummy in an instant, becoming one of the mummies in the river.
"Water?" Qin Feng muttered to himself. There seemed to be a pool next to the last warrior who died in front of him.
The people in the town were originally in panic, and there was no riot because of the Dragon Slayer warriors who presided over the situation. But now so many mummies suddenly appeared in the river, and the uneasy mood accumulated in people's hearts was ignited at once.
"I want to leave, I don't want to die here!"
"This is not a disease, it's a curse, it's a curse!"
"I don't want to die, I don't want to die!"
Ye Zhi looked at those people who kept fleeing helplessly, and even he looked at his body uneasily. Could it be that it was not a disease but a curse? Would he be cursed too?
At the age of 23, he was already a warrior of the second level of the True Yuan Realm. He was also a rare genius among the dragon slayers. He had a bright future, and he didn't want to die here.
Suddenly, Ye Zhi's face changed drastically. He appeared by the river in a few ups and downs, looking at the corpse wearing a python robe among the countless mummies: "Senior Brother Yun!"
Dead, the True Yuan Realm warrior sent by the Dragon Slayer Sect to Sanye Town was also dead!
At this moment, a chill enveloped Ye Zhi. He would die, and he would die if he stayed here. He had to leave!
Qin Feng looked at the town that had turned into a sea of fire and shook his head helplessly. This matter was indeed too weird.
When Qin Feng walked up the river, mummies kept flowing down from above the river.
Sanye Town has turned into a ghost town. There are no living people here. Not only warriors, but also ordinary people and livestock have been drained of blood and flesh.
Without exception, these bodies that have been drained of blood and flesh fell into the water or near the water source.
"Does it have anything to do with water?" Qin Feng put his palm into the pool, and the flames rose. The pool evaporated instantly, and there was nothing special left in the dry pool.
"Did I guess wrong?" Qin Feng shook his head and left Sanye Town.
After Qin Feng left Sanye Town, a withered body staggered towards the river. When the body was immersed in the river, this body actually became plump.
This body opened its arms and let out a long whistle. There were actually transparent worms in the river. When these worms entered this body, the blood and energy in their bodies actually fed back to this body. In the blink of an eye, this body broke through from an ordinary person and became a Zhenyuan realm warrior in an instant.
A blood-red light flashed in his eyes, and the body began to leave the river. He looked at the direction Qin Feng left and opened his mouth: "Ga...hiss...eh!"
A series of meaningless weird cries, after trying many times, this body seemed to have mastered the skills of making sounds.
"Very delicious human!" After saying that, he licked his lips.
He took off a set of clothes from a mummy and put them on himself. This body followed Qin Feng's footsteps.
At the same time, countless transparent insects followed the river into other waters. When these transparent insects entered the human body, they would devour the warrior's blood and qi bit by bit!
However, who knows these things? Maybe one day someone will discover this secret, but by that time, these transparent insects may not be something they can deal with.
"By the way, give it a human name, insect spirit!" The body laughed and followed with a brisk pace.
Qin Feng leaned against a big tree, and beside him was a flying sword that kept spinning.
"You've been following me for so long, so you should show up now!" Qin Feng pointed his finger, and the flying sword pierced through more than ten ancient trees.
"Ding!" The flying sword trembled slightly, and the insect spirit walked out slowly, holding the flying sword with two fingers.
"Brother, don't be too angry, I'm just on the same road with you." The insect spirit laughed.
Qin Feng waved his palm and the flying sword returned to his hand: "Why are you following me?"
"I said, I'm just on the same road with you!" The insect spirit said without changing his expression.
Qin Feng stared at the insect spirit, but did not feel anything else from the insect spirit. The Thunder Fire Yuanling Wings spread out and turned into a lightning and disappeared into the sky.
The insect spirit was stunned for a while: "Is this a human martial art? Now I am also a human warrior, I should be able to learn this kind of martial art, find a human sect to join them and learn."
The insect spirit looked at his body, and he seemed to be a little older. He saw his body suddenly wriggled and turned into a pile of minced meat, and then the pile of minced meat reorganized and turned into a seven or eight-year-old child.
The destruction of several towns in succession caused the Black Dragon Territory to fall into panic. However, this strange disease came and went quickly. In the panic of countless warriors, this strange disease disappeared.
Some people speculated that this was a plague specifically targeting warriors. When the warriors infected with the plague died, the plague disappeared.
This speculation was unreliable, but who cared? No matter whether it was a plague or not, as long as it didn't affect themselves, it was fine.
No one knew that a dragon swam from the river into the sea. This dragon was drained of blood and flesh in an instant. Countless transparent insects drilled out of the dragon's body and drilled into the body of the small fish.
Soon this small fish was eaten by a big fish, the big fish was eaten by a sea snake, and the sea snake was soon eaten by a monster. These transparent insects continued to accumulate in various organisms, and finally drained the flesh and blood of these organisms!
