Sword light and dagger glow intersected and in a blink of an eye, the seven Lamp Zombies fell to the ground. Lin Xi didn’t underestimate our strength, as long as we focused and didn’t make mistakes, we could solo 5-8 of them at once. At this moment, the moment they fell to the ground, spirits floated out from their lamps and turned into people that stood in front of us. A total of ten.

Some were guys and some were girls, some were old people, there were four year old children but their faces were covered in thick death energy.

“Finally, we are free…”

An old man in grey robe said, “Since that plague entered the town, everything changed. People became violent and lost their minds.”

On the side, a middle aged man looked muscular and he choked, “Father, Mother, they all became zombies without consciousness. Those damn demons, they brought destruction and death…”

“Mother, mother became someone else…”

A kid said in despair, “We can’t go back anymore, the town is walking towards destruction…”

……

While speaking, their bodies became blurred and then they turned into smoke that disappeared into the sky.

“There is actually a scenario…”

Lin Xi looked at the disappearing people, “Seems like the town was infected by a plague and slowly died out.”

“En.”

I nodded, “But… It is actually designed so detailed, something must have happened. Since they became undead puppets, how would Little Ailan be like…”

Lin Xi was stunned, her expression was filled with worry, “Let’s charge over quick!”

“En!”

We dashed forwards and cleared the Lamp Zombies. After we cleared the second batch, more of them appeared in front of us. They were expressionless and just left a bit of their souls. They brushed passed us and walked towards the town, muttering---

“Everyone chose to leave but where can we go? Hengshan Town is our home, if we lose it, where can we go?”

“Sir Li Qiuyang has brought medics to our town, but… Their medicine can’t stop the plague, our bodies are all changing and many people have left…”

“Are those people that left the town early okay?”

……

I frowned and looked at those souls leaving. Some passed through my body and only a bit of their consciousness was left, nothing else.

“Lu Li…”

Lin Xi looked at me and became even more worried.

I frowned, “Don’t worry, this is a Starlight Quest, Little Ailan should be alive…”

“No, I am…”

She bit her lips, “This town is a dead city, if Little Ailan is not dead, facing such a town, how much despair…”

“Let’s go, let’s continue.”

“En!”

……

Further forwards, we cleared out batches of Lamp Zombies. We got close to the town and the experience we got was quite alot. However, the scenario quest was really depressed, every sentence they spoke made us worried about whether or not our target was still alive.

2 hours later, Lin Xi and I continued to push forwards and finally reached the entrance. We saw a bunch of vicious-looking zombies. After clearing them out, people flew out from their lamps. They looked like troops that stood tall.

“Young adventurer you are too late.” A middle aged soldier sighed, “We are all sick and nothing can save us. Our souls can’t be redeemed, we…”

I looked at his empty eyes, “Uncle do you know Ailan? Where is her home, where is she?”

“Ailan?”

He looked confused but suddenly he understood, “Oh, you are talking about that poor kid, she has been abandoned…”

“Why… Why abandon her?” Lin Xi asked.

He sighed, “On the third day of the plague, she had symptoms, her feet felt cold and white pus appeared on her body. Everyone said that she couldn’t be saved, so… Her parents abandoned her… They left on the 4th day and left Ailan here…”

“Why?”

Lin Xi frowned and her eyes were filled with rage.

“No why…”

The soldier said calmly, “Everyone wants to leave, her parents too, who will risk their lives…”

He looked into the sky, “We followed Sir Li Qiuyang’s words and died here in the end, we… Although we are soldiers, but we have answered to the empire and to the human race, we can die with no regrets…”

In the next second, their bodies disappeared.

……

I sucked in a deep breath and looked forwards. A bunch of lamp zombies spawned and I frowned, “Lin Xi let’s keep focus. After killing this bunch we can enter the town to search for Little Ailan…”

“En!”

We went all out and roughly ten minutes later, all of them were killed. In the stacks of bodies, souls flew out and it was another group of soldiers. At the front, a spirit holding a crutch coughed. It was the mayor.

“Young man…”

He looked at us, “You are too late, Hengshan Town has fallen, Sir Li tried but he still failed. The troops are wiped out, you are too late…”

I frowned, “I know, we met Li Qiuyang.”

“Ah?”

The mayor was shocked, “You… Sir Li, how is he?”

“He already died.” I said solemnly.

“Ah!?”

The mayor’s body shook and his eyes were filled with sadness, “Our Hengshan Town, is still wiped out in the end… Sir Li, he fulfilled his promise and died in the role…”

Lin Xi walked forwards and said, “Mayor, we came to save Ailan, where is she, is she still alive?”

“Oh, so it is that kid…”

His eyes turned red, “Her parents abandoned her and left, haiz… After the people found her, no one dared to get close and just fed her from afar, but… Dimension Legion has attacked the town so we sent her to the granary in the north of the town, I don’t know if she is still alive, that poor child…”

“How are there such parents in the world!”

I frowned but didn’t continue.

The Mayor looked at me and said, “Actually, a doctor said that Ailan didn’t get infected at all, she was just sick and it was a tough to cure the illness that would need a few thousand golds to cure. Her parents knew about it and were just afraid that she couldn’t get cured at it would cost too much so they abandoned her and left her to die…”

Lin Xi was shocked and tears welled in her eyes, “Granary… It is in the north?”

“En.”

The mayor looked at us, “Let’s hope you can find her but also hope that you can save her… Young child, you are the hope of the world, only you can save this falling world, goodbye….”

After saying that, the mayor and the bunch of soldiers turned into a white light that disappeared into the sky. They all disappeared.

……

“Lin Xi, north of the town!” I said.

“En!”

She nodded and charged alongside me. The two of us crossed the entire town. Not long later, a tattered granary appeared ahead. When Lin Xi pushed it open, she saw a small figure in torn clothing. She was already on the verge of death.

“Little Ailan!”

Lin Xi and I charged over.

“...”

She looked at us weakly but still smiled, “Brother, sister, are you… People sent by my parents to see me?”

Lin Xi broke down, “Yes, we are…”

“That is great.”

She looked at us and was really weak, “Unfortunately… I have no more strength, I can’t follow you to see them… I…”

“It is okay… It is okay…”

I shook my head and smiled, “We are here, we will be with you.”

“I… I…”

Her breathing got weaker and weaker but her face was filled with joy, “Brother, sister, thank you… I didn’t expect people will come to find me, I…”

She was close to death.

I switched to the Paladin account and saint light landed on her but it didn’t do anything. Her lifebar remained at the edge and I couldn’t save her.

“Lu Li, no need… No need…”

Lin Xi knelt on the side and was crying.

Little Ailan hugged two wooden pieces and on it was her parents’ names. Her consciousness was blur but she still placed them by her mouth and said softly, “Goodbye father, goodbye mother.”
