When the door opened, Lucius's eyes immediately locked a figure inside the door.

It was a little girl who was so thin that she could hardly see her flesh and was left with only skin and bones.

Moreover, from the little girl's limbs to her neck, everything was tightly locked by iron chains, leaving her without much room to move.

Because the muscles of the limbs, which had not been exercised for a long time, have completely shrunk, and look very deformed and terrifying.

"How can you..."

The first time I saw the little girl, Lucius's mind was only a kind of emotion called anger.

This is not only because he knows that the little girl is Locke and the daughter of his benefactor, but also because of the anger that he can't help but feels like this after seeing a little girl being tortured to this end.

This is a subconscious reaction, and it is also the most realistic reaction of Lucius as a kind child.

However, before Lucius finished speaking, Vien on the side seemed to know what he wanted to say, and said with a wry smile: "Mr. Master, I know what you want to say. But please believe me, I don't want a little girl to be tortured like this."

"I remember when I first brought her to the castle, I communicated with this little girl and knew that her name was Nina Grant. But later, with the infection of the dead face, she gradually could not communicate anymore."

Wien looked at the chains and a sad look flashed in her eyes: "The chain cannot be released. Once it is released, she will hit the door frantically, wanting to attack all objects that can be attacked. If there is no object, she will start to harm herself."

"As for her current situation, it doesn't take a day to die due to self-harm."

"Also, she can't communicate and can't eat. We can only secretly use a needle to inject nutrient solution into her while she is asleep to maintain our lives."

Looking at the expression on Vinn's face, Lucius seemed to have guessed something and asked, "Vissue Viscount Vinn, you, some family members have infected this... dead face?"

"That's right." Wien did not deny it, but just nodded gently.

The one who was infected with the death face was his most proud eldest son.

During the previous battle to encircle and kill the death side, his eldest son was bitten by the death side patient, which infected the death side. In the end, he didn't even have time to control it and died directly due to madness.

But Wien doesn't want to mention this kind of thing to others anymore.

Before, Lucius was still wondering why since it was a disease, why there was such a strange name called "Dead Face".

But when he saw the face of a little girl named Nina, he finally understood.

I have to say that the name Death Noodles is really appropriate.

It was obviously at the age of lively and cuteness, but Nina's face seemed to be no different from a dead person. Her blue face could vaguely see the green blood vessels under her skin, and her eyes were not focused at all, as if the eyes of a dead person, and her lips were pale without any blood.

If it weren't for the fact that the little girl could still feel that she was breathing, Lucius would have thought that this was a dead person.

Is this the origin of the name Death?

Thinking of it, Lucius walked towards Nina.

"Hello."

In front of Nina, Lucius slowly squatted down.

"Sir, she..."

Lucius stretched out his hand and interrupted Vien, staring at Nina's face seriously.

In fact, judging from age, he is not much older than Nina.

When he was thirteen, he came to the Exile City and stayed in the Exile City for about two or three years. This year he was just a teenager who was only sixteen years old.

Before, due to long-term malnutrition, he seemed to be only twelve or thirteen years old. However, since Lucius experienced a complete transformation, he looked older than his actual age. At first glance, he looked like a young man.

“Um…”

Nina seemed to be sleeping before, but strangely, her eyes were open.

Now that I came to my senses, I felt as if I suddenly saw the person appearing in front of me, my body shook and then I let out a shrill and roar towards Lucius.

"Hao wow!!!!!!"

The sound is weird and sharp, and it sounds creepy.

"Nina! Can you hear me? Quiet!"

"ah!!!!"

At this moment, Wien Fast walked over with great strides and slapped Nina on the back of her neck with a light palm.

Bang.

Nina's eyes rolled, her head slowly drooped, and she fell into a coma.

Before Lucius could speak, Wien took the initiative to say: "Sir, I'm sorry, I have to knock her out in this state now. It can be seen that you care about her very much. If she still yells like this, I don't think there will be any problem with both of us, but her throat will soon be torn apart by herself."

Lucius pursed his lips and said nothing, because he knew that what Vanne said was indeed true.

"Because she is still young, she can still be under control. Once she has the power of an adult, even if we lock all people like this, he will have a way to let himself die." Wien said in a deep voice.

“Is there no way to treat it?”

"If there is a way, the entire Kahn continent will not be able to do anything to the death side now." Wien shook his head.

"So, how is this disease called death-faced infection transmitted?" Lucius stood up.

Everything has a source, and this disease cannot occur for no reason. Moreover, according to Wien, this kind of dead surface is now beginning to appear throughout the continent, which is obviously not an accident.

Wien Fast was silent for a moment before saying: "The most common way of infection is through body fluid contact, such as being scratched and bitten by a dead patient."

"You said...the most common? So what does it mean is that there are other uncommon?" Lucius narrowed his eyes.

Wien was silent for a while, then took Lucius away from the room that was locked up in Nina and entered a secret room next to him.

After closing the door, Wien asked: "Sir, have you not been walking on the mainland for a long time?"

Lucius's heart moved and nodded, "Indeed, I have been in seclusion for many years and have only come out recently."

"No wonder then."

Wien Fast nodded suddenly. Only in this way can this explain the strong man who is suspected to be a saint, but he doesn't even know a lot of common sense.

His lips moved, and then Wien lowered his voice and said, "Sir, I will answer your previous question now."

"Indeed, there are common ways of infection, but there are also uncommon ways. But that unusual way is the main reason why the entire continent is panicked."
