Shota's Isekai NTR Adventure Chapter 249 Investigation (12)

With this demonstration, there was no longer any protest from either Ron or Ronnie.

Rather, they started looking at with strange looks as if they were trying to figure out just how I had done what I had just done.

Of course, they wouldn't figure it out since I wasn't using the Detection Ward right now.

After giving them so ti to satisfy their curiosity, out of fear that they would follow because of it, I said, "I'm going in now. Stay here and stay out of trouble."

As I said this, I couldn't help feeling strange.

It was almost as if I was telling kids to behave before leaving them on their own for a bit…

That usually went very poorly, so I already had a bad premonition.

So to make sure that nothing went wrong, I gave Shaka a look as if telling him to watch over them.

Shaka revealed a bitter smile under his cloak at this, but he still gave a nod in the end.

With that, I entered the cave.

This cave didn't have any light, but that wasn't surprising. Instead, I was wearing a special pair of glasses that Shaka had given .

These were a special pair of glasses that gave night vision.

I just wish that he had given these when I had gone to the Spirit Forest. I definitely could have used these when I had been sneaking around in the night before.

But I was grateful that I had them now.

The mountain that this cave was in was quite large, so the cave itself was also quite long. There were also many different passages that I could take, so I ran into quite a few dead ends as I was exploring.

But after a while, I was able to reach my goal.

That was because I could see the light that was coming from in front of .

This was a light that wasn't natural, so it was clear that this was so kind of manmade illumination.

I carefully entered the cave in front of and I was shocked by what I saw…or rather, I was shocked by the number of things that I saw.

It was a horde, a real horde.

There were so many undead just wandering around in this large cave that I couldn't count them at all. However, looking at all of them standing perfectly still in the cave like this, it was clear that there were far more than I had thought there would be.

A thousand?

That was a conservative estimate.

It seed more likely that there were over two thousand undead and if not, there were at least a thousand and five hundred of them.

The population of Bright Water City in the first place was only around ten thousand people.

Just the number of undead here would be enough to make up a fifth of Bright Water City, one of the largest cities in the kingdom. That was enough of a comparison to show just how many undead were gathered here.

But if there were so many undead gathered here, how had the duke missed all of this.

No matter how one thought about it, he should have seen the signs since this was not sothing that could be done quickly.

There were only so many undead that one could create and control, so it would take a long ti to prepare all of this unless there was also a horde of necromancers here as well.

If that was the case, then the situation would be even worse.

But at the sa ti, they would have attacked already if they had that many necromancers available.

So the only possibility was that this was sothing that had been built over a long ti.

Even if they had srized the villages around the area, soone should have reported that a long ti ago. It wasn't as if those villages were completely cut off from the outside world.

The only possibility of this being completely hidden was that…there were demons that had infiltrated the city as well. They were manipulating those that worked near the duke or even impersonating those working for the duke to keep this information suppressed.

The more he found out about this case, the worse it beca and the more stressed he was.

Lin Fan had thought that this would be a simple case of finding a demon and taking care of it, but it just beca more and more complicated with each clue that he found.

But still, it wasn't as if this was sothing that he could ignore.

This case had beco so serious that it even threatened the safety of the entire kingdom.

After all, if Bright Water City was wiped out, the amount of corpses that would be available to be turned into the undead…it would be enough to wash over the entire kingdom.

They would spread all over the kingdom, leaving death and destruction in their wake.

As more and more people died, more corpses would be created and more undead would be awakened.

Eventually, this kingdom would be turned into a kingdom of death if this undead horde wasn't stopped here…

But would they be able to take care of the undead horde here?

All of these concerns filled my mind and I beca more and more worried, but I forced all those feelings down in the end.

After all, there was nothing that I could do by worrying about this now.

What I needed to do was get back to the city and report everything that I had found to the duke. The duke had soldiers and he was the only one that would be able to handle this situation.

So I turned around to leave.

But before I could leave, there was a sudden sound that rang out through this cave.

It was the sound of a rock falling down the side of the ledge that I was on, dropping down into the cave with all the undead.
