I set off a mysterious revival in Marvel

Chapter 539 Plague
Dizziness, coughing, general fatigue, and a slightly hot forehead.

Ok.

These are indeed symptoms of a cold.

Standing at the bow, feeling the cool breeze blowing from the Pecos River, Wang thought speechlessly.

It seemed that after entering Kamar-Taj for training, I had never been sick again. I didn't expect that I would get sick during this mission...

It must have been caused by the cold and dead air that was emitted when I was at Walter's farm before, otherwise how could I catch a cold with my physique.

"Damn devil..."

Although he was a little surprised, after cursing a few words in his heart, Wang didn't take this little matter to heart.

After patrolling the Pecos River several times in a daze, he still found no trace of the water demon.

Looking at his companions who were listless and even drowsy, James shook his head speechlessly and suggested that Wang return to Kamar-Taj to have a good rest.

Otherwise, even if they were lucky enough to find the water demon, given Wang’s current condition, he would be a dead end.

Although he was somewhat surprised by James' analogy, the depressed Wang really didn't have the energy to argue with him.

Ten minutes later.

Mordo, who came to replace the king, just walked out of the golden-red portal and saw the king sitting weakly on a big rock on the bank of the Pecos River, and James who was patrolling the river while taking care of the king.

"Hi, James."

"Hi, King."

After a simple greeting, Mordo patted Wang on the shoulder and said jokingly: "Ha, Wang, is your body okay? Don't let yourself be knocked down by the disease instead of the devil."

"Shut up!"

"If I hadn't been invaded by the cold and dead air emitted from Walter's farm while tracking the whereabouts of the witch demon, causing the elements in my body to become unbalanced, would I have caught a cold? This is a work-related injury."

"Humph, once I find that guy Wu Xinmo, I will have to settle accounts with him sooner or later."

After rolling his eyes at Mo Du in annoyance, Wang stood up with some effort and said, "But since you are here, I will go back first."

"Don't worry, just go back and recuperate. Leave this to me. I have trained my body day and night, so I won't be knocked down as easily as you."

Although he was harsh in his words, seeing Wang's pale face, Mordo was considerate and opened a dimensional door for Wang that led directly to Kamar-Taj.

"Humph!"

"If you don't speak, no one will think you are dumb."

Looking at the laughing Mordo, the king felt a little stuffy in his chest. After a light cough, he walked straight through the dimensional gate that was constantly emitting golden and red sparks and returned to Kamar-Taj.

After the king stepped onto Kamar-Taj, Mordo waved to him and dispelled the constantly rotating dimensional door.

Then, together with James beside him, they used the compass in their hands that could sense the devil's breath, and took a boat on the Pecos River to carefully search for the traces of the Water Demon Lord.

But what they did not notice while observing the Pecos River carefully was.

Nowadays.

On the banks of the Pecos River, there seem to be...extraordinarily many people suffering from colds.

An old man was sitting on a bench by the Pecos River, enjoying the breeze from the river, when he suddenly sneezed without any warning.

He seemed to feel that the river breeze was particularly cold today, and he couldn't help but tighten his leather jacket.

A plump young woman who was pushing a baby stroller and walking on the green path along the Pecos River was constantly taking out tissues to cover her mouth and coughing lightly.

"Cough cough..."

further away.

A group of sweaty cyclists seemed to feel a little itchy in their throats while wantonly swaying their youth and sweat...

These people with colds and coughs were inconspicuous among the people flowing along the Pecos River.

That is why neither James nor Mordo noticed this at all.

·······
The sound of dripping water stopped.

When Erin walked out of the bathroom, he saw Gwen, wearing only a bath towel, lying lazily on the sofa, watching the latest report on Fox News Channel on TV.

"According to the latest report from our reporter."

"Another horrific blood sacrifice ceremony was discovered outside Houston. As many as sixty-six bodies were found at the scene. According to professionals, this incident is related to the demons that escaped from hell last month."

"Meanwhile, this is the thirteenth case involving demonic sacrifice in Texas this month."

"Although the Houston police are actively cracking down on the case, the frequent sacrificial ceremonies and vicious incidents have caused great dissatisfaction and anger among Texas residents. They are fighting the Houston police, saying that they are wasting taxpayers' money."

"Amid the trend of panic and anxiety, people in Texas are crowdfunding and offering a high reward to those involved in the effort to expel the demon that was said to have scurried out of hell a month ago. It is said that this news has attracted the attention of many religious people, and many well-known exorcists are rushing to Houston."

······
Arlin walked over and sat down next to Gwen, leaning back on the soft leather sofa and hugging Gwen, whose body was even softer, into his arms.

"what!"

Then, Gwen, who was watching the news and savoring the aftermath of the storm, let out a cry of surprise.

With a somewhat hurried breath, Gwen pressed down the mischievous hand that had reached under the bath towel, then glared at Arlin unhappily.

"My wound is still hurting, you bad guy, just be quiet."

After warning Ailin.

Seeing Arryn's surrendered expression, Gwen hummed softly, changed into a comfortable position, and lay in Arryn's arms.

Looking at the bloody scenes on TV, Gwen asked worriedly, "Those guys bewitched by the devil have been getting more and more crazy recently. This is the thirteenth devil-related sacrifice incident this month, and the number of victims is also increasing."

"If this continues, it won't be long before more people are harmed. So... do you need me to help you find those guys?"

"You know, my spider sense is very good."

Aylin shook his head when he heard this.

"useless."

Over the past half month, the wizards of Kamar-Taj, the federal military, the FBI, the CIA, and Tony Stark have used various means to find the Witch Heart Demon and the water demon lord.

But the demon's sense of danger is too strong.

Once they sense danger, these two guys will run away without hesitation.

Often, before humans could surround them with heavy firepower or a large group of mages could arrive, these two guys would have already escaped.

And once they find that their people are not strong enough, those two guys will turn around and hunt each other.

For more than half a month.

There were more than one wizard who died at the hands of the Witch Heart Demon, and there were even more exorcists in the community who accepted the bounty offered by Skyrim.

Many of them were extraordinary people who had awakened their abilities after the Crimson Moon. But for Wu Xinmo, these ordinary extraordinary people were just food for the enemy.

On the contrary, because of the souls of these extraordinary people, Wu Xinmo's strength has recovered a lot recently, making him even more difficult to deal with.

but.

Fortunately, after being trained by Carter Slay, this generation of Ghost Rider Johnny has been able to sense the traces of the Witch Heart Demon and the Water Demon at night through the Spirit of Vengeance in the past two days.

Ha ha.

Unexpectedly, the backup plan left by Mephitos in order to control all the demons that invaded the human world has become a help for Aylin and his friends in their search for the Witch Heart Demon.

After telling Gwen the news about Ghost Rider so that she wouldn't be so worried anymore.

Suddenly, a new news was broadcast on TV.

······
"Recently, a new round of influenza has broken out in the city of Simonhat. Although the local government and medical institutions are actively responding, the scale of the influenza and the number of infected people are still spreading, and there is a trend of spreading to surrounding cities."

"When residents go out, please take protective measures..."

While the reporter was explaining, pictures were played on TV.

The once bustling streets now only had a few sparse groups of people, and those walking on the streets all looked listless.

Even the shops on both sides of the street were lifeless at this time. From time to time, you could see the shop assistants taking out tissues to cover their mouths and coughing violently.

In contrast, there were long queues of people buying medicine in front of every pharmacy.

And the hospitals are packed with patients and becoming extremely busy.

The sky above the city, which was once full of life, now seemed to be shrouded in haze and became unusually gloomy.

Ok?
Although separated by a screen, the haze covering the city made Ailin keenly sense that something was wrong.

After sensing something strange about Arlin, Gwen asked in confusion, "What's wrong? Is there something wrong with this flu?"

"Somewhat something is wrong."

Watching the fleeting Pecos River on TV, Ailin seemed to suddenly realize something and immediately said, "Luo, search for the location of Simonhat City immediately and project a map of the surrounding area of ​​Simonhat City."

"Okay, master."

With a pleasant sound, a light blue 3D map was quickly projected by Luo.

Looking at the big river and several tributaries that flowed through Simonhat City, Ailin continued to instruct: "Luo, mark the names of all the rivers in Simonhat City."

"Okay, master."

Almost at the same time as Luo's voice sounded, the names of the rivers in the city of Simonhat were projected by Luo in another color.

Pecos River!

Looking at the name of the largest river in Simonhat City, Ailin showed an expression of surprise.

"The Pecos River? Sure enough!"

Looking at the river names specially marked on the three-dimensional map projected by Luo.

Gwen, who was beside Arryn, pondered, "These rivers...are there any problems?"

Ailin shook his head upon hearing this, and then said in a deep voice: "The problem is not these rivers, but the water demon that hid in the Bekos River before."

Arryn's words were like a thunderbolt, causing Gwen's eyes to widen instantly.

"You mean the flu in Simonhat City is related to the water demon that hid in the Pecos River before?"

"Whether it matters or not, I'll tell you with divination."

talking.

He took out a piece of parchment with a hint of spirituality from the space ring.

Written on parchment in front of Gwen.

"What does the flu in Simonhat City have to do with the water demon?"

Ailin held the parchment and leaned back on the sofa. He first recalled the flu in Simonhat City and things related to the water demon in his mind, and then silently recited the divination sentence seven times.

Then, Ailin emptied his mind, closed his eyes, and with the help of meditation, quickly entered a dream that contained divination.

······
As Ailin fell asleep.

Soon, a gray and illusory picture appeared in Ailin's dream.

In that gray and misty scene, Ailin saw a wet figure with long hair. Like a swimming fish, it quickly crossed the muddy riverbed, as if looking for something.

I don’t know how long it took.

He seemed to have discovered something and came to the bottom of a turbulent river.

Then he bent down, spat out something that looked like a box from his mouth, and placed it at the bottom of the turbulent river.

A mysterious premonition told Ailin that the box was very important.

But before Ailin could see the box clearly, the dream seemed unable to withstand Ailin's prying eyes and shattered.

Ailin suddenly opened his eyes, and there was an extremely mysterious and deep aura in his eyes.

"Sure enough, the flu in Simonhat City is closely related to the Water Demon."

Although he didn't see clearly what the Water Demon had placed at the bottom of the turbulent river, Ailin was certain that the thing was closely related to the recent influenza outbreak in Simonhat City.

Was it that mysterious box that contaminated the water source in Simonhat City, causing the flu outbreak?
No.

Once it is related to the devil, then the flu outbreak in Simonhat City is definitely not as simple as ordinary flu.

But...a plague.

Thinking of this, Ailin immediately took out the phone.

Then I found Wang’s phone number.

Soon after Ailin pressed the button, Wang's voice came from the other end of the line:

"Hey, Ailin, do you have any good news you want to tell me? Ahem..."

On the other end of the phone, before the words were finished, a heart-wrenching cough was heard.

Before this, Ailin knew that the king had a bad cold and went back to Kamar-Taj to recuperate, but at that time Ailin did not connect this matter with the matter of the water demon.

But now it seems.

The king's severe cold was definitely related to the plague that broke out in Simonhat City.

After all, a common cold wouldn't allow a mysterious mage like Wang to rest for so long.
