Chapter 048 Rescue
A high-pitched voice came from far away.
Colin and everyone else turned around and looked in the direction of the sound, and saw that a conflict seemed to have occurred not too far from here.
A man who was obviously dressed differently from the others had a crazy look on his face. He hugged the person next to him and started biting him madly. With his big mouth with slightly protruding fangs, he bit off the person's ear with one bite, leaving his face covered in blood.
Some onlookers wanted to step forward to stop it, but seeing the other party's crazy look, they did not dare to do anything.
Compared to Helena and others who were confused, Colin could tell what had happened at a glance - "beastiality".
He sensed a violent and demented emotion from the guy.
"That's weird. I didn't feel anything when I passed by there just now. How come it exploded all of a sudden?"
Colin thought that if there had been a corresponding , as a "superior" infected person, he would definitely be able to smell that smell directly. However, he did not discover all this until the outbreak.
Either there may be an incubation period, or it is a random infection.
If something like this appeared on Earth...
It's really troublesome.
While he was thinking, a small group of people immediately rushed in that direction and quickly captured the person infected with "beastiality".
People who are initially infected with this thing are just a little stronger and don't have many special features, so it's not that difficult to deal with them.
The arrest was very successful.
After this interruption, Helena's attention was diverted. She turned her head to look at Warden Calder and asked, "What's going on? It doesn't look like an ordinary contradiction."
That kind of crazy expression is not something an ordinary person can show.
"It's a strange disease that has been raging in this generation in recent months. Once infected, the person will immediately become insane and will not recognize his relatives. But don't worry, this disease only occurs in ordinary people, not us. We will also do everything in our power to ensure your safety... uh..."
When Calder heard the noble speaking to him for the first time, he bowed slightly and began to explain. But just as he was halfway through, a panicked shout came from near the street.
At this moment, his face darkened.
Colin looked over there and saw another beast patient appear, coming at a very inopportune time.
"Are you sure this situation won't happen to us?" The old butler frowned and questioned.
"I can guarantee that. Please allow me to excuse myself for a moment..." Carde said, and this time he walked over in person to deal with this other crazy guy.
What an unlucky day today!
Seeing him leave, Colin seemed to come to his senses and replied to Helena's previous question: "I should stay here for a while."
"Then, why don't we stay here first? We probably need to rest here for a few days." Helena made an invitation.
Is it because my strength is guaranteed, and then something happened, and they want to win me over to prevent threats? But isn't that a little too enthusiastic? Colin considered it and shook his head slightly:
"No, I have some things to take care of, so I'll leave now."
If I continue to stay with this group of people, will my teammates be saved?
Helena did not force him to stay: "If you encounter any problems in this city during this period, you can come to me. I will try my best to help you to repay your kindness."
"Thank you in advance then."
After Colin finished speaking, he walked towards the other direction of Black Rock City, and his figure disappeared from everyone's sight after turning a corner.
After leaving them, he quickly entered the narrow streets. After turning a few corners, he didn't feel anyone following him, so he walked towards the city gate.
"The warden is protecting Helena now. The dungeon should be guarded against an empty space. We need to take advantage of this window to get the people out first."
Colin was thinking as he hurried on his way. He soon arrived at the city wall and smelled all kinds of unpleasant odors.
He stopped and looked from under his hood at the city gate.
Seeing that the soldiers were only checking people entering the city but didn't seem to be stopping anyone from leaving the city, he walked straight ahead and once again passed through the drawbridge door held up by an iron chain.
"If it's night time later, just climb over the wall and come back."
Colin looked back and estimated that the height of the city wall should be about ten meters, so it would not be difficult to climb over.
Then, he turned around and quickly approached where Duncan was.
The refugees stationed outside the city in the stench had no idea how long they had been there. Soaked in the foul smell, most of them had symptoms of malnutrition, hunchbacks and short stature.
They were either curled up, lying down, or sitting against trees, with dull eyes and numb expressions, just like the zombies in movies and TV shows.
They did not react much to Colin's hurried passing by, and were too lazy to even look up. After all, every movement consumed a bit of energy, and the possibility of surviving until tomorrow became less.
"I just live for the sake of living."
Colin even felt that they might not even be able to think well.
But he didn't think much about it. After a few minutes, he walked through the chaotic and smelly crowd, and after groping for a while, he found the familiar place and saw the familiar entrance. There was a prison guard on duty at the entrance.
“It’s like returning to the Novice Village.”
Colin pursed his lips, then stopped hesitating, sneaked around to the jailer, locked the man up and dragged him into the woods, strangled him unconscious, and then pulled off his clothes.
Then he stuffed a tissue into the man's mouth, tied him up with a rope, and threw him aside.
Then, after changing into the other person's clothes, he swaggered to the dungeon door.
The door was locked at this moment. Colin didn't say a word, raised his foot, gathered strength and kicked it. After two or three kicks, he kicked the wooden door of the dungeon open in less than three seconds.
"An accident happened once, and they didn't even bother to replace the door with an iron one."
Colin grunted and saw a downward sloping passage in front of him. He dived down and quickly came to the underground floor, where he saw the death row prisoners in the prison on both sides of the corridor.
At the end of the corridor, the three prison guards had complex expressions of confusion and surprise on their faces, and they seemed to have not yet reacted.
It had been less than five seconds since the door rang, so it was already fast for them to grab their weapons and react.
But I didn’t expect that the person rushing down was actually “one of our own”?
"Captain!" In a prison, a man with untidy beard, unkempt hair and chains on his feet rushed to the iron bars in surprise.
"Tung Ken?" Colin looked at him twice, confirmed that it was the person he was looking for, and walked straight over.
"Captain, I've observed that the key is in that..."
Duncan was halfway through his words when he saw Colin raise his leg and kick the iron railing.
Bang!
Amid the shaking sound, dust from the top of the dungeon wall fell down, and one of the iron bars was kicked off.
This made Tang Ken, who was still in the cell, stunned: "Is this possible?"
