Forces on the Move!!
Ian was taken aback.
At that moment, the movie Resident Evil from his past life involuntarily came to mind...
Could it be...?
Even in the world of Hunters, will a zombie horde erupt?
However, logically speaking...
These zombies are actually not difficult to control. As long as the troops suppress them immediately, they won't cause any trouble.
Really...
As if recalling a cruel scene, Elena's pretty face turned pale, and she seemed to remember a cruel moment, her voice hoarse and choked with sobs.
"What has awakened is not human..."
"They are nothing but monsters in human skin, cursed by demons, craving blood..."
"There seems to be something in those Ancient Ruins that's attracting them..."
"Along the way, many pedestrians in the city were injured by them and quickly underwent strange changes, eventually arriving at that Ancient Ruins with them..."
The matter quickly alarmed the royal family, who issued an order to dispatch troops to destroy the Ruins.
As she said this, a look of pain crossed her face, and she paused before continuing.
"My sister, Ilian, her unit was also sent to oversee the excavation site of the Ancient Ruins, and... she died at the hands of those monsters..."
Despite his sympathy for the other person's plight, Ian remained calm.
After listening to what the other person said, he spoke in a deep voice.
"You mean, those monsters that die and then rise from the dead... have the ability to quickly infect ordinary people and turn them into monsters?"
Elena nodded.
"That's right..."
"This is also something the royal family is worried about..."
Her expression was somewhat unpleasant, and she spoke in a hoarse voice.
"Due to insufficient intelligence in the early stages,... in addition to a large number of residents being infected, even the military became targets of infection; they... were all trapped in that Demon Cave!"
Upon hearing Elena's words, Ian's companions, including Chrollo, fell into thought. After a while, Chrollo suddenly asked a question.
How much time has passed since this incident?
Elena thought for a moment and then spoke.
"A month has passed!"
"During this time, the royal family and their ministers were weighing how to resolve this issue with minimal cost..."
"If Princess Egina hadn't insisted, they probably wouldn't have reached an agreement by now, and if things weren't dealt with soon, even more people would have sacrificed their lives!"
To be honest, Ian wasn't too concerned about how many civilians from the Gogar Kingdom would die in this accident.
This is something the royal family should consider.
Their deaths were caused by the incompetence of the Gogar Royal Family.
However, based on Elena's words, Ian judged that the scope of this unexpected Malice incident would likely be quite large.
After all, those monsters have the ability to infect ordinary people, which is terrifying. If it gets out of control, the plot of the Resident Evil from my previous life might very well be repeated in this world.
Moreover, this is most likely not a common viral infection.
Things related to thought, no matter how simple, can become very complicated and more difficult to handle.
Should we contact that guy again?
Ian thought for a moment.
The guy on the other end of the phone didn't seem to be lying to them; what if the Dark Sonata really did work?
However, Ian only thought about it.
In any case, now that Netero and the Hunter Association have gotten involved, he doesn't need to worry about it anymore.
With Netero around, everything will be fine!
With this in mind, Ian imprisoned Elena again.
"Gratitude for the information. We have already contacted the relevant departments to handle this matter, so you don't need to worry..."
"If the problem is resolved, we will let you go back!"
"You should be thankful that Princess Egina doesn't intend to do anything excessive to us, otherwise she would also be a target of our revenge. Now, please wait patiently a little longer."
After saying that, Ian and his group left.
At the same time.
With the appearance of the Justice Rope, the entire Ejin City is undergoing tremendous changes, and some butterfly effects are beginning to emerge.
As the "Evil's Nemesis" gained more and more fame in newspapers and media, his reputation grew even higher!
Moreover, the news has not only spread within the Gogar Kingdom, but has also been noticed and reported by media outlets in many other countries.
"Evil's Nemesis, what is this thing? It sounds like it's provoking our gang!"
In Yorknew City, a group of gang leaders frowned as they looked at the newspaper article, then threw it away in annoyance.
"Now even the most nobody dares to provoke our gang. Let's find out who's in charge of Ejin City!"
"Yes!"
In no Kung Fu Hustle at all.
"Boss, we've found out. Ejin City is managed by the Kalie Gang, and the gang leader is named Retsubu Kazuo!"
"Heh, a mere third-rate gang, yet they manage their subordinates so poorly. Give them a call and tell them that the Black Axe Gang is very dissatisfied with their performance!"
"If that guy can't manage Ejin City well, then replace him with someone else!!"
"Yes!!"
The younger brother immediately obeyed and quickly dialed the number based on the information he had found.
After a while, he shrank back and said cautiously.
"Gangfu, the phone isn't ringing... no one's answering..."
"Bang!"
A burly man suddenly overturned the table and shouted angrily.
"A mere third-rate gang dares to ignore the Black Axe Gang? Immediately send men to wipe out the Kalie Gang in Ejin City, and also eliminate those media outlets spouting nonsense!"
"Yes!!"
On the other side, in the United States of Mit.
In a silver-gray hall, a woman in a smart suit stared coldly at a newspaper and muttered to herself.
"A revolutionary third-generation technology product?"
"Ha! A tiny country like this dares to spout nonsense in the media!"
"However, this thing sounds rather interesting. Is it really a machine? I don't think so... It's probably just some Nen user's haphazardly developed ability!"
Then, she casually tossed the newspaper aside.
Then, she turned on her high-tech computer and browsed the confidential information recently submitted by various countries.
Upon noticing the intelligence about the Gogar Kingdom, she couldn't help but raise an eyebrow, narrow her eyes, and click on the page.
After a while.
Her brows were furrowed.
On the computer screen, some gray images are faintly visible, including terrified passersby and humanoid monsters with grotesque faces and stiff bodies.
Finally, the scene settles on a deep cave, outside which a dense crowd of people are kneeling in a pit.
Clearly, the information gleaned from the message made the woman feel somewhat uneasy.
She then made a phone call and gave the order.
"Arrange the Airships and immediately organize a team to Exorcism Team and head to King Gogar's capital, Gugurian, where some kind of 'Ruins' has been suspected to have occurred. I'll head to Ejin City first and then arrive as soon as possible!"
And in the sky over a certain region.
Located on the back of a giant Flying Magical Beast.
A young man, wearing a gray trench coat and a hat, with a stubble beard, was closing his eyes and breathing deeply.
"Ring ring ring..."
Just then, the phone in his arms rang. The man slowly opened his eyes and answered the call.
"Gold!!"
"The Demon Cave... the monsters inside the Demon Cave are just as you described; all the monsters have changed!"
