Chapter 831 813. Urban wild dogs
“Is this a ‘vacation’ meow?”
Flannel Ball shrank his head cautiously and asked Lan En again.
It now feels that what Lan En said before coming over may have been an oxymoron. Perhaps it was because his rhetorical skills were not good enough that he didn't hear it?
But when the flannel ball looked at the expression on Lan En's side face, he immediately understood: Lan En didn't expect to encounter such a thing when he first came here.
"The situation is unknown." Flannel Ball watched helplessly as Lan En changed from a relaxed look to a frowning look. "Be vigilant first."
Then Linbu Ball, who understood the change in his movement style, also jumped off the Qilin's back with his two short legs, and his little paws were placed on the hilt of the kitten's steel sword behind his back.
Qilin also raised his head and looked around.
The sky in Athens burned too many things, resulting in a thick layer of soot floating in the air. These impurities in the air will refract the sunlight into a yellowish and dim appearance.
It is almost impossible to tell whether it is dusk or early morning.
The lively shouts can no longer be heard in this great city, and debates can be seen everywhere among Athenian citizens who have received education in logic and debate.
After realizing that this was a plague, Lan quickly turned his thinking to a biologist's perspective.
“We need to find someone who understands the situation and understands the current situation.”
The Athenians were stunned.
Occasionally, a very small number of pedestrians hurriedly walked through the bustling streets in the past, but they just kept walking with their heads lowered, as if they were resisting even eye contact with others.
Flannel Ball followed Lan En's steps and asked in a low voice.
“Then what happened here, meow?”
Lan murmured.
It’s just that Lan En doesn’t know how far the city of Athens’ plan to deal with the plague has progressed.
It seems that even the look of your eyes can spread disease.
On one hand, this is to reveal the direction of action to the flannel ball, and on the other hand, it is to help oneself sort out his thoughts.
Lann poked his head out from the alley of the fisherman's area next to Piraeus Port. The sanitary conditions here were already very poor due to the terrain.
Although plague is terrifying, even in early civilizations like ancient Greece, there was a set of response procedures.
There is also the crackling sound of some kind of fuel burning, which is also scattered throughout the city.
There are only faint, vague, low-pitched cries of pain, delirious sleep blabbering, and wailing from the sick.
Fortunately, Lan En and Rongbuqiu are both experienced hunters who can hunt in the wild, and they can still maintain themselves in good condition despite this kind of smell.
The various rancid smells were mixed together, making it unbearable.
It has little concept of the plague, a health crisis caused by large population gatherings.
Flannel Ball was born in the New World, where the total population of humans and cats does not exceed a few thousand people, and they are generally strong and healthy.
There is a layer of overflowing seawater in the fisherman's area. The seawater is already smelly and unpleasant, and now it is filled with vomit, excrement, and corpses that have become so rotten that they cannot be recognized.
It is even more silent now.
“Plague, you haven’t seen this scene, have you?” Lan En whispered, while his eyes wandered around, hoping to collect more information.
“Fortunately, I still have many acquaintances here.”
Lan En frowned and walked on the rugged stone road with twists and turns in the fisherman's area.
He looked around, but unfortunately and realistically found that there seemed to be very few healthy people here.
Lann patted the side of Qilin's face and sent it to the sea outside Piraeus Port.
The plague would have caused mass panic, not to mention that judging from the current situation, the plague has probably been tormenting the city of Athens for quite some time. If the appearance of Kirin is allowed to take to the streets and trigger a group of religious fanaticism, things will only become more and more chaotic.
Anyway, if Qilin acts alone, he can be recalled very quickly when needed.
Soon, under the Qilin’s [flash of lightning], it disappeared above the waves of the Aegean Sea.
Flannel Ball followed Lan En towards the avenue of Athens, hoping to meet more people on the avenue with a large flow of people and learn about the situation.
But this is still not optimistic.
They saw some people, but these people often scratched the corners of the walls with their hands. They seemed like they couldn't even take a step. They just lowered their heads and panted, or simply vomited and had diarrhea on the spot.
And most of these people were frantically tearing at the few clothes they had on them.
The one-piece linen short skirts were torn by them until they were shirtless, but they still looked very hot.
These symptoms seemed familiar to Lan En.
“Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!”
A few sudden dog barks sounded in this dead street.
The sound came from the alley next to the street, and seemed to be refracted back and forth by several corners, making it seem a bit far away.
But soon, the sound of paws making contact with the ground was heard.
Three dogs the size of medium-sized dogs, with messy hair and drooling, ran out of the alley and attacked pedestrians on the street.
These are domestic dogs that have become urban wild dogs.
There are also many dog owners in Athens, but under the current plague. These dogs are left unattended when their owners die, or are driven out of the house as 'filth' by their owners.
If there were just a few dogs in normal times, even the leftovers from the Athenian market would be enough to appease them.
But now, the plague has almost plunged Athens into a quagmire. These animals, which were originally dependent on society for survival, quickly returned to their wild nature after going crazy with hunger.
They found food in cities that was easier to hunt than in the wild—human beings who were sick but had to go out.
After all, even if they are sick, they still have to find ways to make money. And his weak body happened to be unable to fight even a wild dog.
Lan En didn’t even look over there, as if the three wild dogs with blood-red minced meat hanging from the corners of their mouths didn’t exist.
And it is indeed the case.
Without Lan En's need to do anything, the flannel ball standing at his feet was already eager to try his new thing.
Berengar made two swords for it, one steel and one silver. The weight **** of both swords were printed with patterns of kitten paws.
One of the velvet **** is called [Thunder Cat Sword], and the other is called [Silver Cat Sword].
Now, Linbuqiu drew out the steel sword among the two swords smoothly.
Its claws are actually always resting on the hilt of the sword.
“Meow!”
The flannel ball turned over and jumped up.
When the [Light Body Breathing Technique] is used, its original standing height is about the same as that of these wild dogs standing on all fours.
But this jump, combined with the light body technique, jumped directly into the sky above the wild dogs.
Thunder Cat Sword slashes down just right.
The Valyrian steel blade mixed with Kirin material just cut into the back of the wild dog's neck as if it were nothing.
