Chapter 104 The spawn point of monsters (4)
Next, Keiz spent half a day. Not long after the fluorescent bottle flashed white light for the third time, he quietly killed the monsters he encountered along the way. Without disturbing most of the monsters, he walked around the entire village and found out the current situation of the village.
Although he couldn't find the so-called monster spawn point, he went door to door and investigated all the houses in the village that were inhabited.
The map shows that there were originally 34 households in the village. Qizi searched door to door, and finally found that most of these houses were empty, and many of them still had traces of life, as if everyone was still living step by step not long before the mutation happened.
The owners of only a small number of houses seem to have moved away, and no single death was found in these houses, as in the mill.
However, he found that like the first house he entered before, there were three places where many people died and strange patterns were painted on the floor.
Every time he found one, he would mark the places where the massacres took place on the map, and finally Keiz found that they were distributed in four directions of the village, which happened to enclose the whole village in the middle.
These massacres are clearly problematic at first glance, and now Qizi can basically confirm that the monster spawn points are definitely related to these four locations, and the current state of the secret realm is definitely inseparable from these rituals!
However, the exact relationship is unclear, but their functions are actually easy to guess, nothing more than: the changes in the secret realm started through these rituals, or someone recruited monsters through these rituals, and finally led to the fall of the entire secret realm!
It's hard to come up with any other explanation.
In addition to these, the most suspicious thing is that during the investigation, Qizi found that five households among the residents in the village had all moved away. At first, he didn't pay attention to it, until he found out that one or two people had moved away.
But it is a pity that no useful clues were found. I can only know that although not every one of them was completely evacuated like the second one that Keiz investigated, it was indeed possible to see that they had already moved out before the disaster struck. They seemed to have known in advance that the disaster would happen.
This is very interesting. After all, not everyone can predict the future, and there must be hidden tricks in it.
Moreover, Keiz found an interesting thing on the markings on the map—these people who moved out in advance were basically related to the Fuli family, either distant relatives or relatives.
So the combination of these discoveries gave Chez some new thoughts, maybe the Foley family wasn't the biggest victim of the whole thing as they said before, they lied!To the Ministry of Magic, to Blanca, to everyone...
Although Keiz can't be sure that they caused the disaster, they definitely have something to do with it.
"But it doesn't make sense! Why is it so easy to find the corpse? These traces are placed here in a big way, and anyone who comes in and walks around can investigate them immediately.
Moreover, I believe that the other monster spawn points should be the same scene.
If it really has something to do with them, shouldn't they get rid of all the traces before leaving?
Or at least they had to secretly remove all traces of evil rituals and evidence against the Foley family before letting them in!
Now that they are bragging about letting these knights in through the Ministry of Magic, aren't they afraid that what they find out will be revealed by the Ministry of Magic? "
After investigating each house, Keiz went into the suitcase to rest. He paced back and forth in the newly built rest area, and suddenly found that the big benefactor of this mission might have a problem, which made him a little anxious.
"Simulator! Is it possible to simulate during the upgrade?" He felt a little flustered for no reason, and wanted to find some sense of security, so he asked the simulator, wanting to use the simulator to see what would happen next.
Unfortunately, the answer given by the simulator is no.
[The simulator is currently fully collecting energy and cannot provide simulation services! 】
"Damn it! I forgot to simulate it before I set off. Even if I can only see it three days later, it's better than all kinds of random guesses like now."
Keiz cursed himself inwardly, lay down on the small bed prepared before departure, and reorganized all the useful information he got.
Suddenly he remembered the mummy he had found before, maybe he could find some clues from him.Keez immediately got up and went to the ice cellar where Alister's rations were kept, where he left the body for convenience.
Soon he found the corpse that had just been thrown in among the mountains of various meats, and moved him out of the ice cellar, not forgetting to bring a pile of meat with him when he came out.
As soon as he came out of the ice cellar, Alister surrounded him, making coquettish sounds. Chiz had expected him to do this, throwing the meat he had brought out into the open space far away, but this time it didn't immediately rush over to feast on it as usual, but stared fixedly at the corpse floating in front of Chiz.
Its head was getting lower and lower, and it was getting closer and closer to the corpse. Viscous saliva continuously flowed out from the gap between the sharp dragon teeth and dripped on the ground.
"Alister! This is not for you to eat. If you eat this, I will tear you apart and sell you to that insatiable half-breed goblin, Harper Denton!"
Qiz yelled sharply, startling it, turned his head and flapped his wings to the pile of meat in the distance with reluctant eyes.
After transporting the body to an unoccupied cell, Keez began to examine him closely.
This person should have been about 40 years old when he died, with a very strong body, and his hands were covered with calluses. At a glance, he should be a person who has been engaged in manual labor all year round.
The cause of death was a huge penetrating wound on the waist and abdomen, leaving only a shriveled belly stuck to the sternum. Due to the erosion of the black mist, there was no breath left on the wound. Using a magic wand to stir up the dehydrated, shriveled belly, Chez saw what was inside.
The internal organs in the stomach have almost disappeared, and there are still many moldy wheats around the wound on the back. The cut surface of the wound is not smooth, and it does not look like it was caused by a monster or beast attack.
After careful identification, Chiz could see that such wounds were most likely caused by powerful offensive spells such as the Blasting Curse.
His blood should have flowed into the wheat pile under his body as soon as he was injured, and his body was air-dried so that it did not rot.
No more useful information could be seen from the corpse, so Keiz turned his attention to the clenched fist on the corpse's chest.
