As the others explained, Angor began to understand the general situation.
For some unknown reason, a disease that could turn people into lunatics was spreading in Windmill Town. This disease was also very contagious. As long as someone came into contact with the patient, there was a high probability that they would be infected by the disease.
Even after the wizards from Brute Cavern found out about the disease, they still could not find a cure. In the end, the wizards only confined the patients in a special hospital to prevent them from infecting other people.
"So that Iwa you're talking about is locked up in the hospital?" Greya asked.
"Yes. Iwa was locked up in the hospital. I don't know what happened, but he ended up in the cave."
"Could it be that Yi Wa's sister has sneaked into the hospital to release him?" "Or did something happen at the hospital?" "Could it be that all the patients at the hospital have escaped?" Is Windmill Town on the verge of falling? "
The more they thought about it, the more horrifying it became. They raised their heads expectantly, hoping to hear the truth from the two Magi in front of them. However, both Greya and Angor were frowning as if they were thinking about something.
"Have you heard of this contagious disease?" Angor asked.
Greya considered and said, "Usually, it's a mental disorder. Disorder, loss of control, or deviation from a fixed path. Unless it's caused by physical injuries, it's usually a mental problem.
"It's not rare, but it varies from person to person. Basically, it's not contagious. "
Angor nodded. He understood this as well. According to the basic logic of disease source, madness was not contagious.
Unless the source of this illness was a kind of group psychological suggestion or mental pollution.
For example, the belief of some strange evil gods, or totem patterns with obvious hints … If someone came into contact with such things for a long time, it could cause mental pollution and eventually lead to widespread madness.
However, the situation in Windmill Town did not seem to be such a psychological suggestion. Brute Cavern was right next to Windmill Town. It was impossible for any evil god or mental pollution to exist under the eyes of wizards for a long time.
Besides, even if the disease was caused by something like this, wizards could still do something about it.
However, it seemed that wizards did not find a way to cure the patients in Windmill Town.
So apart from these, is there any other way to spread the disease?
If they were on Earth, the answer would probably be no. However, this was the wizarding world full of unimaginable powers. There were too many possibilities to create such a situation.
The answer was yes. But what was the point of knowing the answer?
"Based on what we know," Greya said, "the disease must be caused by supernatural power."
Angor nodded. Since normal methods couldn't spread the disease, and it wasn't a psychological group suggestion, there must be some supernatural power involved. Moreover, they had clearly sensed that the patient named Eva in the cave had a vague supernatural abnormality.
"But I don't understand why we need to do that. What's the point?" Greya frowned. "Is there some kind of conspiracy behind this? Could Zslade's previous hint be referring to this matter? "
"I'll go check it out," Greya said and walked toward the cave.
Angor followed her, leaving Azaz outside to protect the trembling mortals.
The cave was not dark at all. The ceiling was smooth, and there were glowing plants as light sources. With the help of the light, they could see the messy boxes on the ground, as well as some fallen trolleys.
Sunders stood in front of them and looked at something not far away.
Angor followed Sunders' gaze and saw a man in a white hospital gown walking around in circles in front of Sunders.
He couldn't see anything with his naked eyes, but he was sure that the area around the man was filled with illusion nodes.
Sunders must have used an illusion to trap the man.
"Did you see anything?" Greya asked curiously.
Sunders did not answer. Instead, he asked, "What do you think his movements look like?"
His movements? Angor and Greya both looked at Iwa in the illusion.
"I don't think there's anything … Wait, wait."
Greya frowned as she realized something.
On the other hand, Angor didn't notice anything unusual about Iva at first. But when he looked closer, he noticed something different about Iva.
Iwa's movements, such as the angle of his head, the height of his hand, and the width of his stride, were all bigger than normal people. It did not seem strange at first glance, but upon closer inspection, Angor could tell that Iwa was doing it on purpose.
Angor suddenly raised his index finger. A trace of nightmare energy was released from his fingertip.
This nightmare power slowly condensed around Yi Wa, and in the end, an illusion appeared. This illusion was exactly the same as Yi Wa, whether in terms of clothing or appearance, even the height was the same.
It was almost as if Iwa was looking at a twin.
Greya didn't know what Angor was trying to do at first, but when Eva's illusion began to move, Greya's eyes widened.
Angor was controlling the illusion to mimic Iwa's movements.
However, in this illusion, Eva's movements were slowed down.
Even if slowed down, a normal person's movements would still be smooth and slick. However, after Eva's movements were slowed down, there were a few obvious pauses.
When he turned his neck at a certain angle, he paused again. When he lifted his foot at a certain angle, he paused again. These pauses were similar to the mechanical dance Angor saw in the hologram tablet.
However, the mechanical dance was created by humans, so it was subjective.
Iwa, on the other hand, seemed to have lost control of his body. It was as if countless strings were controlling his limbs.
After discovering this point, Eva's originally laughable circling movements were now full of strangeness.
It was as if there was a giant shadow behind Iwa, who was smiling eerily and reaching out a hand that covered the sky. His hands were connected to countless silk threads, and these silk threads were tightly binding Yi Wa …
"I have a feeling that there's more to this than meets the eye." Greya spoke after a moment of silence.
Angor nodded. That was exactly what he was thinking.
"How should we deal with this?" Angor looked at Sunders.
However, Sunders did not answer. Instead, he looked behind them.
The man who was attacked by Iwa was saved by Sunders. He had been lying unconscious on the ground. But now, he suddenly woke up and slowly stood up.
