Journey to Infinity from the Witcher
Chapter 19 Plague Village
The sun is clear and the autumn breeze is refreshing.
Perhaps it was the previous encounters with night monsters and mist monsters that made the three of them run out of bad luck.
The trip to Forovdo town on the last day was also extremely smooth.
The weather is sunny and there are no monsters causing trouble.
Before the sun set, the three finally arrived at the town of Forovdo.
A prosperous town surrounded by rivers.
But when the three of them led the horses towards the town, they discovered that something seemed wrong in Forovdo Town.
"Where did it come from?"
"I'm from Narode Village, this is my proof..."
"Go in..."
"Where did it come from..."
At the gate of the city wall, a line of soldiers in armor were strictly checking everyone who wanted to enter Forovdo.
The atmosphere was tense and serious.
As the largest and richest town in the surrounding area, Forovdo has people from more than a dozen surrounding villages of various sizes coming and going every day.
The flow of people coming in and out every day is still considerable.
At this time, there were twenty or thirty people waiting in line to enter the town.
Geralt, who knew something about the situation, did not go to the back and wait in line slowly, but took Gordon and Sheena straight to the entrance of the town from the side.
At this moment, among the people queuing up.
The town guard inspected a family group consisting of two middle-aged men and women with a small-headed child and a donkey. There were several large packages and luggage on the trailer behind the donkey.
"Where did it come from?"
The leader, a tall town guard wearing armor, stared at the honest-looking middle-aged man in front of him and asked coldly.
"Hokadel Village, this...this is my proof..."
Facing the cold questioning of the Gaoda Town guard, the middle-aged man's eyes visibly flickered.
The high guard's eyes could not see the guilty conscience of the middle-aged man in front of him, and he immediately shouted loudly:
"Where on earth are you from?"
"Once you are found to be from Basai Village or Lowes Village, you will have to go to jail and have all your property confiscated?"
"explain!"
The Gaoda town guard's aura was astonishing. The middle-aged man couldn't stand such a fierce shout, and he immediately stopped.
"We are from Rowes Village..."
The middle-aged man said in a trembling voice, but his words had not yet finished.
The Gaoda Town guard's expression changed, he immediately took a big step back and shouted: "Come here, take them away..."
Several guards in armor behind him immediately rushed up and began to chase people away.
"Sir, we are not infected..."
"Sir, we are really not infected. Please, I will kneel down for you..."
"dad..."
"Mother..."
For a moment, adults screamed, begged for mercy, and children cried.
"What are they?"
Seeing this scene, Gordon asked Geralt.
"The village they were in was infected, many people died, and many monsters appeared. That's why we came here."
"As for those three, they are just isolated."
"Let's go, we should go in."
Geralt said as he led Gordon and Sheena forward.
After simply stating their intentions, the three were let go by the town guards.
At this time, the town of Forovdo had already issued a large reward announcement, just to attract demon hunters and mercenaries to come to help.
A quick passage has been opened for demon hunters and mercenaries to enter and exit.
Through the high gate and wall, the three of them entered the town of Forovdo.
Clean ground, neat houses, squares, fountains, bell towers, towers, churches, people flow...
Entering the town of Forovdo, Gordon found that this town was indeed larger and much more prosperous than the small villages of Lava and Hokadel where he had stayed before.
Even the town of Ferode, where he was born and raised in the memory of his body, is also inferior to the town of Forovdo.
Of course, this is still not worth mentioning to Gordon, who has seen too many steel forest metropolises on Earth in his previous life.
But in this fantasy and magnificent world, the town of Forovdo is indeed pretty good.
Even Gordon himself felt a lot of novelty and freshness in this prosperous town similar to the European Middle Ages on Earth.
Compared to the seriousness and tension at the city gate, there is also a sense of uneasiness permeating the town of Forovdo due to the plague.
Many of the people walking on the street wore white masks and walked in a hurry.
"Where are we going now?"
In the middle of the street, Xina asked.
"Follow me."
Geralt looked around the streets and then got on his horse.
Gordon and Sheena immediately mounted their horses and followed Geralt quickly towards the center of the town.
Not long after, the three of them arrived at the square in the center of the town.
There were not many pedestrians in the wide square, but there were quite a few people gathered under a bulletin board.
Geralt approached with Gordon Sheena and found four guards in armor standing on both sides of the bulletin board.
The crowd surrounding the bulletin board were basically mercenaries wearing leather armor and the like.
Gordon realized at this time that this should be the place where various bounties and tasks were issued in Forovdo Town.
Geralt walked over with Gordon Sheena, and noticed the fierce aura of the three of them, the conspicuous double swords, and Geralt Sheena's eyes that were very different from ordinary people.
Immediately, the mercenaries gathered in front of the bulletin board looked sideways and gave in one after another.
Many of the mercenaries have dealt with demon hunters, so their knowledge is naturally much better than that of ordinary people.
Even if he hates and rejects the Witcher in his heart, he will not express it easily.
After all, they all make a living by taking bounty missions, so it is inevitable that they will encounter demon hunters.
Although witchers generally don't treat ordinary people who reject them or curse them.
But for the mercenaries, who can guarantee that the witcher will not do evil to them when they encounter them while performing tasks in the wild.
The more you know, the more you will be in awe.
On the surface, the mercenaries were afraid of the demon hunters and didn't dare to say anything. Who knows how they would scold him in their hearts.
But these have nothing to do with Gordon and Geralt.
After briefly reading the information on the bulletin board, Gordon finally knew what had happened in Forovdo Town.
It turned out that two villages not far from the town of Forovdo, the small village of Basai and the village of Lowes, suffered from a terrible plague half a month ago.
The vast majority of the people in the two villages were almost wiped out, and only a few people who were left were lucky enough to escape from the villages without being infected.
Just like the previous inspection at the city gate, it was to prevent people who survived the two plague villages from sneaking into the town of Forovdo, because this plague has an incubation period of two to four days and is still contagious to a certain extent.
If only two villages are infected and die by the plague, it is not a big deal. Just give up completely and pretend it doesn't exist.
But the key is that many of those who died due to the plague came back to life a few days later.
Transformed into various monsters, such as ghouls, ghosts, evil spirits, etc.
At the same time, due to the large number of deaths, the two small villages are like magnets, attracting various other monsters in the surrounding area to gather together.
Now these two existences, which are comparable to monster paradises, have seriously threatened the safety of surrounding humans.
The town of Forovdo is the first to be affected, and naturally wants to eliminate the two plague villages as soon as possible.
This is also the reason why there is so much turmoil in the town.
