When the United Kingdom Congress and government moved south to Lanxi, they took many people with them. These people included the dignitaries of Milia City and a large number of scholars. But those ordinary civilians except for a small number of civil servants and workers employed by the United Kingdom government

Except for that, the rest were left behind.

After the empire's army arrived, although they did not enter Miria City and had no idea of ​​​​managing Miria City, they blocked all the main roads around Miria City. Unless it was issued by the empire, otherwise Miria City would not be allowed to enter the city.

No one in Miria City was allowed to leave, which also trapped more than one million civilians in Miria City.

When the empire recruited garrison troops, many civilians were recruited into the army. The families of these civilians moved out of Milia City and settled along the railway. The army provided food and other daily necessities every day, so there was no need to provide for them.

Worry about survival.

However, there are still nearly one million people without any supplies within the city of Milia, so in order to survive, these civilians have either joined gangs or become scavengers.

The United Kingdom left in a hurry. Although it took away all the talents that could be taken away, the wealth that could not be taken away was left behind. However, no one thought that the French Empire would use such an extreme method to destroy the city of Milia.

It was completely destroyed, so the wealth was buried in the ruins of the city.

If you want to clean up this wealth from the ruins, even if the French Empire sends millions of people, it may not be able to be completed in several years. Therefore, the civilians of Miria City who have become scavengers in order to survive have become

Because of this, some people think that the French Empire's army blocked the main roads of Milia City and did not allow people to enter and exit at will. They deliberately wanted to use this means of survival and oppression to force those who

The commoners collected the wealth scattered among the ruins of the city as they wished.

If in other places, a set of exquisite gemstone jewelry can be exchanged for thousands of gold flanges, but in the current city of Miriam, it can only be exchanged for ten loaves of bread.

There are some smart guys among those scavengers. They can see that the city of Miria has the most wealth, but there are also the most scavengers, so there are the most fights over some treasures, and the level of danger is also very high. Scavenging here

Some gains outweigh the losses.

On the contrary, it is the villas in the suburbs close to the blockade. I noticed that there are not many scavengers here, and most of those villas are made of wood. They are easier to clean than the stones in the city, and you can find more easily.

valuable treasure, so smart scavengers cleared the area early.

All the slightly valuable things in the villa were confiscated, and even some high-end wood that was not completely destroyed was taken away by scavengers. The entire villa area looked like it had been licked.

The task that Leo got from Sylvia was also related to the scavengers cleaning up the villa in the Lake District of the First Quarter Moon. However, it was not the United Kingdom that issued this task, but the Lost World Society. Its level of danger is the same as that of the Swamp Sons.

That village is almost the same.

Many members of the Lost News Society like to live in Miria City, a city that is very open to academics and knowledge. Old Rembrandt is one of them, and several other members of the Lost News Society have also settled in the city.

The waxing moon lake area of ​​Miria City.

When this war spread to Miria City, the Ignorance Society had a premonition of the blow that Miria City might suffer, so when the United Kingdom was still discussing whether to abandon Miria City, it had already

All members of the Lost Society were taken to a safe place.

The wise men of the Lost World Society originally thought that the French Empire would capture Miria City. Even if the army would do some extraordinary things such as smashing, looting, burning, etc., for the sake of international reputation, they would also protect the residences of some scholars and celebrities.

, so there are some things that are not suitable to be taken away. The scholars of the Lost World Society will store them in the safes in their respective secret rooms, and wait for the war to calm down before returning to pick them up.

However, no one expected that Emperor Fran would be so vengeful that he would destroy the entire city of Milia, and the villas in the suburbs were the targets of destruction. What made them even more unexpected was that the scavengers would actually destroy the villas buried there.

The secret room under the ruins of the wall was found, and all the safes in the secret room were emptied.

Most of the items stored in these safes are very dangerous cursed objects. These cursed objects come from the Lost Words Society and other allied organizations. They find the cursed objects through various methods and then deliver them to Miria City.

Research ways to eliminate the curse for the members of the society here. Because special containers are needed to transport these cursed objects, otherwise people who come close will be entangled by the power of the curse and appear strange, so the Lost Words Society decided to temporarily collect these objects.

stand up.

Now, the Lost News Society has discovered from other channels that some of the cursed objects they collected have been spread to the markets of other countries and regions through the black market, which also makes them realize that the objects they collected may have been lost.

Although the types of cursed objects are classified into one category, their dangers vary. The cursed object Leo is looking for in this mission belongs to the extremely dangerous category. This cursed object

The name of the thing is Ring of Plague.

Plague is the enemy of any living thing at any time, so whether it is the ancient earth era of the Earth Federation or the current world of Velen, they have had a strong fear of plague stemming from their life instincts since ancient times.

It is precisely because of this fear that the world of Velen has always had faith in the God of Plague from ancient times to the present. Although the name and identity of the God of Plague are different in each period, they are consistent in one thing.

They are all the embodiment of plague.

During the great plague that affected the entire world of Velen and almost destroyed the entire world, the belief in the God of Plague was at its strongest. During that time, seven churches of the God of Plague appeared at the same time.

Some of these churches spontaneously created a god to believe in simply because they were afraid of the plague. Gods do not really exist, but some actually have an ancient god standing behind the church. Do any of these gods exist?

The true God of Plague is still a mystery, but at least one thing is certain. One of the gods was extremely close to the divine power of plague, and the Ring of Plague was created by this church.

Because this church used the Plague Ring to spread the plague, and then harvested new plague varieties from people infected with the plague, the kings, lords and churches in name at that time, the night watchman organization secretly, the tower, etc. all regarded this church as

As the enemy of mankind, we worked together to destroy it, and the church's special magical item, the Ring of Plague, fell into the hands of various forces.

Although most of the Plague Rings have been purified by various organizational forces, there are still a few that have been preserved. The Plague Ring lost by the Lost Society is one of them, and it is probably the only Plague Ring that can be used.

.

The member of the Lost World Society who obtained the Ring of Plague is a high-ranking member of the medical school and a famous medical master in the world of Velen. Although the mission file does not mention who this high-ranking person is, he is a high-ranking member of the medical school who has lived in Miria City for a long time.

There were only a few of them, and Leo could easily find them out if he wanted to investigate, but he didn't have any troublesome thoughts.

This medical school senior originally wanted to study the power principle of the Ring of Plague, and planned to use this principle in virus cultivation in the medical school. Unfortunately, after getting the things, before he could figure out the reason, the war broke out.

.

When this ring of plague fell into the hands of the senior management of the medical school, it did no harm, because after so many years, the power contained in the ring has been reduced to a negligible bottom, and the plague used to cultivate it has long since disappeared.

But what seems to be immortal is that this member of the Society committed a common problem among all research scholars. In order to study their topics, they can completely ignore the dangers brought by research. He actually sacrificed to the Ring of Plague according to the rituals of the ancient Plague Church.

It also provided a large number of germs to the Ring of Plague, trying to use these methods to restore the power of the Ring of Plague.

What is even more unexpected is that the member of the society succeeded. The Ring of Plague regained some legendary abilities, such as absorbing plague germs, creating new varieties of plague germs, etc.

At this time, when the war came, the society member had to temporarily give up the research at hand. However, the Ring of Plague was cultivating a very critical germ for him at the time, and he had spent several years working on this germ and stopped midway.

If he came down, all his previous efforts would be wasted. So he found a special magical artifact, stored the Ring of Plague in it, and let it continue to complete its cultivation work. He left Miria City first, and then came back after the matter calmed down.

Take away.

It was just the actions of the imperial army and the appearance of scavengers that made this society member's expectations come to nothing. Other cursed objects were scattered on the black market, which made him realize that something might have happened to the things he saved. Because he knew very well about the leakage of this thing.

What kind of serious consequences would it cause? That society member had to inform other members of the Strange News Society about it.

After analysis by other members, everyone felt that the situation was not at its worst yet, because there was no news of the great plague in Miria City. It can be seen that the wizard's artifact used by that member to contain the Ring of Plague was not

It has not been opened, and the Wizard's Rare Item itself is a treasure that requires a specific method to open it, so the person who obtained the Ring of Plague may not know what exactly is in his hand.

In the opinion of the members of the Lost World Society, as long as the wizard artifacts containing the Ring of Plague are taken back before they are opened, there will be no disastrous consequences.

It's just that the Foreign Hearing Society has no influence in Miria City now, and the manpower is not enough. If you contact the black market, I am afraid that the people in the black market will be more willing to sell this plague ring for a good price, and will never consider returning it to the aliens.

Society of Smells.

For this reason, they had to turn to the United Kingdom, which still deployed a large number of manpower in Miria City.

However, the United Kingdom has different opinions on helping the Lost Society find the Ring of Plague, because before the imperial army crossed the Black Forest, the Lost Society received some news, but the Lost Society did not tell the United Kingdom about the coming.

, on the contrary, it was Miria City that he quietly evacuated, so many people believed that although the Lost Society was not an enemy, it was not an ally either and had no obligation to help them find the lost cursed object.

What's more important is that some people feel that if the ring of plague takes effect in Miria City at this time, the empire's army will inevitably be hindered. They can use this as an excuse to accuse the French Empire of using plague as a weapon to massacre humans. In doing so,

Although it cannot directly cause harm to the French Empire, it can make those countries that secretly conduct business cooperation with the French Empire wary, and it is not impossible to even cut off cooperation with them.

It is precisely because of this attitude of the top leaders of the United Kingdom that they used various means to delay the release of the mission to the front line. When the mission order fell into Sylvia's hands, more than ten days had passed, and it was mixed with a

Among the piles of tasks, I knew that when Sylvia discovered this task, she was already hindered by other things from executing this task.

If Leo does not appear, Sylvia may turn to other dark world organizations, such as witches, night watchmen organizations, etc. Now Leo's appearance has solved this big trouble.

To be honest, when Leo saw this mission, he felt like he had returned to the Earth Federation, because in the countless missions of the Earth Federation, there were countless tasks such as wiping the butts of those high-level officials, including retrieving someone.

There are even more tasks to deal with hazardous items.

It was precisely because of his extensive experience in finding dangerous items that Leo did not immediately enter Miria City to search for information on the black market. Instead, he came to the villa of the member of the Lost World Society in Miria City to check the situation.

Just like other villas, the villa of this member of the Lost Society was completely destroyed. However, there are still a lot of signs of excavation and dismantling among the ruins, and there is a huge pothole in the backyard of the villa.

At the bottom of the pit is a passage leading to a secret room.

Leo looked around the villa, and then went down the pit to the secret room to check. After coming up from the secret room, his expression was a little solemn, and then he set off to the villas of several other members of the Lost Society and checked them out.

After he inspected the villas of all the members of the Lost Society in Miria City, he was finally able to confirm that the loss of the Plague Ring was not an accident, but someone did it deliberately.

The reason why Leo made such a conjecture was that he could see from the excavation traces inside and outside the villas of other Abnormal Society that the excavators were amateurs and should have never been engaged in such work. As it is said, there were a large number of wrong excavation sites.

.

Only the secret room where the Ring of Plague is stored, the excavation traces are very professional, and there is no wrong excavation location. It is obvious that the diggers came for the Ring of Plague in the secret room, so this mission is definitely not like the Lost Words Society and
Chapter completed!
