Time flew by and another day passed in the blink of an eye.
After the treatment of several priests and doctors, his internal injuries were completely healed. His face and chest were also healed with special medicines contributed by the dark church's alchemists. Although the alchemists' process of making medicines was inhumane and cruel. They used living people for experiments but the effects of the medicines were extraordinary.
Dean dealt with the problems of the poor and the nobles brought by Barton. He called Neuss and asked him to accompany Barton to preside over the overall situation. The outer wall wasn't peaceful in the last few days. Although the problem of the migration of the poor didn't cause a fierce resistance but there was still a lot of controversy. But because of the pressure from the dark church and the military they didn't make it too obvious.
"Don't make it public that I'm going to the inner wall." Dean looked at both of them: "No matter what the problem is, ease it up and wait for me to come back."
"Yes, master." Barton nodded.
Neuss looked at Dean: "Master, are you going alone?"
"Two people." Dean replied. "Don't worry."
Neuss didn't say much.
Dean put on the stealth armor as the night was getting dark. He put on the Splitter that he made from the body of the Splitter. Together with Aisha they left Utopia mountain. They went through the suburbs and went to the edge of the giant wall. The population was relatively sparse in the places close to the giant wall. Most of them were old villages and small towns. Most of them were old people and children. Most of the young people had left the villages to work in the commercial district. The villages were dark at night. Only a few houses were lit with lights.
Dean took Aisha to the giant wall. He stimulated the wings on his back and grabbed her arm to climb up the giant wall.
The wind on the giant wall was a bit strong. Aisha's hair fluttered in the wind. She wasn't injured in the explosion. Only her clothes were burned. Her body was protected by the dragon scales. She wasn't burnt like Dean and Gwyneth.
Dean took her along the giant wall towards the inner wall. Along the way, he looked at the gray clouds and the desolate night view outside the wall. He could vaguely see some monsters crawling in the night. From time to time, there would be sharp screams. It was extremely loud in the wilderness.
Dean's nervous heart gradually calmed down. His eyes fell on Aisha's body from time to time. She was expressionless, and there wasn't the slightest emotion in her pure black eyes. She seemed to be thinking about something.
Dean's fingers tightened as he whispered: "We'll be able to find a way to make you recover once we reach the Monster Institute."
Aisha was silent.
Dean's pace gradually accelerated. He saw that the number of soldiers stationed on the wall was less than half of the previous ones. It seemed that the corpses in the inner wall were more serious than he had expected. It seemed that the military was having a hard time dealing with it.
He lowered his body and followed Aisha to the place where the wall was erected. They continued to move forward for more than two thousand meters before jumping off the giant wall and landing on the grass. He took Aisha to the next official road. He hoped that he wouldn't meet the pioneer woman here. He hoped that she had already reached the city.
After walking along the official road for more than thirty miles, Dean suddenly heard a sound of hooves in front of him. He immediately stopped and looked into the distance. It was a convoy. There were three carriages and more than a dozen horses. It didn't look like an army.
When the distance was close, Dean saw that the three carriages had a pattern totem inserted on them. Although he hadn't seen the pattern totem, it was very similar to the aristocrats of the outer wall. The armor of more than a dozen knights who were escorting the carriages were also engraved with the same pattern totem.
Dean's eyes flashed a trace of black light. He immediately saw the heat inside the bodies of these knights. He found that the strongest among them was just a high-level Limiteer. He breathed a sigh of relief and walked towards the convoy.
A blond middle-aged knight quickly noticed Dean and Aisha in the lane. He immediately pulled the rope and slowed down the speed. He shouted: "Who are you?!"
Dean waited for him to stop and asked: "It's so late. Where are you going in such a hurry?"
"It's none of your business!" The middle-aged knight shouted angrily. He suddenly noticed Aisha next to him. Aisha was wearing a veil. She was wearing a cheongsam that Dean had specially made for her. It was made according to her original favorite style. It fit her very well.
There was a trace of surprise in the middle-aged knight's eyes. He had heard some rumors about this unique style of clothes. His face changed slightly.
Dean noticed the change in the middle-aged knight's eyes. He squinted: "Aren't you afraid of being attacked by the beasts outside when you leave the city at night?"
The middle-aged knight turned to look at Dean. When he was about to open his mouth, an anxious voice came from the carriage behind: "Why are you still stopping? Run!"
"Yes, Master." The middle-aged knight turned back to the convoy and nodded respectfully. Then he turned to Dean: "Both of you, please get out of the way. There is an outbreak of zombie plague in the city. I advise both of you to leave as soon as possible. Don't go back to the city."
"Come out to escape?" Dean put away the killing intent in his heart and didn't say anything.
The middle-aged knight patted his horse and rode past Dean. He moved forward with the carriage.
Dean took Aisha's hand and continued to move forward. According to the drawings brought back by Gwyneth, there was a city called Carmen more than ten miles away. The Monster Institute he was looking for tonight was in this city.
Ten minutes later, Dean saw a fortress in the distance. The gate of the fortress was completely open. There were some shadows wandering in front of the gate. They walked in a strange posture. Although he didn't see their faces clearly, Dean recognized them at a glance. They were Undeads. He had seen too many of them outside the giant wall.
"It seems that the fortress has fallen." Dean's eyes flashed slightly. He had arranged for people to poison the drinking water sources of the fortresses of each city. It seemed to be effective. However, there were still some living figures fighting on the fortresses. At the same time, there were roars and screams.
Dean's eyes flashed. At the moment, most of the Carmen City had turned into a sea of corpses. He didn't know whether the Monster Institute could withstand it or not. But he didn't send people to poison the water source near the Monster Institute. If they were aware of the situation outside in time, they could use the institute as a cover to hide inside.
