Volume 2 – Chapter 7: Albert Castle

A brilliant doctor who could cure the plague appeared in Odia Town This inforated to the other small towns nearby in just a few days In those past few days, there were, in fact, patients from out of toho came over to seek medical treatment

After the truth of the breakout was revealed by Odia Town, the townspeople were shocked to discover that the aue was far ined

Excluding the villages next to them, of the approximately seven hundred residents, there were thirty to forty people infected with the plague A

Perhaps just looking at the number, thirty to forty people of seven hundred residents didn’t seeht about how Qin Lun used to be located on the Earth Federation where some populations of major cities reached millions, if some news media appeared and reported that dozens of people were infected with a fatal plague, then perhaps all several ered and anxious

Although the people in this world were not as fearful of death as the modern people of Qin Lun’s old world, the scale of this kind of infection was still enough to break people’s psyche No wonder there would be a mysterious power in town that tried to conceal the truth at all cost It was because they were afraid that things would turn chaotic which would eable

“Although Baron Albert’s fiefdom does not comprise Odia Town, he is still this area’s real ruler The town chief of Odia Town is also his person” Catherine helped straighten Qin Lun’s collar as she chattered on and on to the youth, “You can’t have this kind of arrogant appearance in front of him You need to be more modest!”

Qin Lun twitched his lips Although Catherine’s words were right during nors were now, Baron Albert was no longer this land’s ruler Rather, it was hiue However, the youth did not retort to the ed beauty’s words Instead, he narrowed his eyes, experiencing this strange feeling he had never experienced before

Rue’s axles turning, Qin Lun pulled aside the white curtain over the carriage’s smalland looked at the scenery outside

The carriage had already left Odia Town, driving down the mud road outside Tall and lush trees lined the sides of the roads with sunshi+ne passing through the dense treetops Between the trees were dead leaves that dotted the ground along with light and shadow

Qin Lun looked at it for a while, then drew the curtain back and closed his eyes to rest Hissome of the information Catherine provided to him

Albert Castle was on the tallest hill of this woodland Behind the castle was a tall and steep cliff; below the cliff was the largest river of the region that had a horseshoe tith racing currents, the Crest River

The currents of the Crest River were rapid The narrowest crossing of the river was still at least thirty ht when Qin Lun first arrived in this world, the stream he ran across was one of the tributaries of the Crest River As atoith Odia Town as the center, were all located along the curve of the river, the south bank, for a chain of human settlements

Across the river was the largest primitive forest of the Maize Duchy—the Great Maize Forest In its long history, there was a local legend th

at an evil witch resided in the Great Maize Forest, as well as evil organisms controlled by the witch

Because this place was right next to the Crest River, the Great Maize Forest and the human’s residences were separated in half If you had a bird’s-eye view, the Crest River looked like the white crook of an ar human settlements in its embrace Albert Castle was in the very foreuard Behind it was the central town of the human settlements—Odia Town

Of Odia’s legends, besides the one of the witch that felt unfathomable, there was one other relevant rumor

It was said that the Albert faeneration baron received the Maize Duchy’s dispatch and especially defended this anisms within the Great Maize Forest

Legends say that three hundred years ago, this area had even had a war, the huanisms In the end, Baron Albert led his cavalry troops and beat back the witch and her evil accomplices It also restored peace to the area of Odia

Recalling this information, Qin Lun understood clearly Odia Town had this kind of legend in their history It was no wonder that when the plague appeared, the townspeople associated it to the Great Maize Forest’s witch and black ic

To tell the truth, Qin Lun objected to so the witch He did not really believe in those three-hundred-year-old ancient legends Although he had experienced space-tinificent landscapes that defied nature, in his heart, he still had soainst supernatural phenomenons

Qin Lun’s way of thinking wasn’t strange at all When he had just been sent into the mental hospital, his mind had also created a lot of hallucinations If it weren’t for these mental illusions that appeared over the years, hoould he walk upon the path of doom?

On the se finally exited the forest and followed along a sot dark, they arrived in front of an ancient castle

Stepping off the carriage, Qin Lun looked at the ancient castle in front of his eyes, his eyebrows slowly rising more and more His hunchbacked servant behind hiular, mismatched eyes His mouth behind theunable to close it due to shock

It was unlike corand andmade of stone and over thirty meters tall Four secondary castles that were over a dozen meters tall were also connected to it They were like devoted guards surrounding and protecting theirat the castle froular shape
