220 Female Corpse Underground
Clarissa didn't expect this situation to happen, and with her strength, she actually couldn't handle it.
If it were the original situation, she would definitely have had to go through with it, because as a lone ranger, she had no room to retreat.
But now, Clarissa is not only a member of the Knights, but also has a big tree like Rudy on top of her. If she encounters this situation, she is not sure, and of course she has to report it to the superior.
What's more, Rudy is the major shareholder of their alchemy equipment workshop, and most of the monthly profits must be given to Rudy.
Rudy was also a little surprised when he received the news. He knew Clarissa's strength very well and couldn't help but become somewhat interested in the abandoned material warehouse.
When Rudy arrived at the scene, Clarissa had barely stabilized the situation.
Those frightened workers heard that an adult from the Knights was coming to deal with it, and they were lucky not to run away directly. After all, the wages this time were very generous.
Rudy took Judy out of the carriage, glanced at the cowering workers not far away, said hello to Clarissa, and walked into the warehouse.
Clarissa rushed two steps behind Rudy and explained the specific situation in detail.
By the time he finished speaking, the three of them had already walked into the warehouse.
Because it had been abandoned for too long and the ventilation was not very good, there was a strong musty smell of rotten wood inside the warehouse.
There are also some mushrooms growing in some corners of the wall.
This made Rudy frown slightly. Logically speaking, the military is very particular about the location of its material warehouses. It must ensure that the interior of the warehouse is dry and ventilated for a long time to facilitate the preservation of goods.
But this warehouse was clearly substandard, with stagnant air and dampness.
If the normal shelf life is one year, it can be stored here for up to half a year.
According to Rudy's understanding, although there is a lot of corruption in the Kingdom of Thorne, the military atmosphere is still relatively strict, especially when this material warehouse was built decades ago.
At that time, the talented and strategic Emperor Karl II was in power, which brought a period of strong expansion to the Kingdom of Thorne that lasted for more than thirty years.
The territory expanded outward by almost one-third.
Because of this, the city of Glinton has changed from a small city near the border to an inland city in the Kingdom of Thorne.
If we infer based on this, when this warehouse was built, it was definitely not what it is now.
And Rudy soon found out the reason.
As he arrived inside the warehouse, the entire warehouse was within his field of vision.
The source of that hazy and damp smell was soon discovered.
Just below this warehouse, about four or five meters away, there were two corpses buried.
Judging from the traces on the ground, the two bodies had been buried for a long time, at least a year or two.
But underground, the preservation of corpses is quite strange.
Without any special antiseptic methods and without any fluctuations in magic power, the two corpses did not rot, and could even be said to be quite well preserved.
Upon discovering this situation, Rudy knew that the situation in this warehouse must be related to these two strange corpses.
"Here, dig up." Rudy pointed to the location of the body and ordered.
Clarissa didn't know what was going on, but she would not question Rudy's order. She immediately waved over a few workers and threw away the shovel to dig.
These workers were all strong and experienced at work. After digging out the ground, they quickly dug down to a depth of more than three meters.
At this time Rudy warned them to be careful.
Sure enough, a moment later, a cry of surprise came from below the pit, and it was one of the workers who finally dug up the body.
Because Rudy just told them to be careful, the body was not damaged.
Moreover, during the subsequent excavation, several workers discovered that the bodies of these two women were actually very tough. Even if they accidentally accidentally shoveled their shovels, no damage would be left.
After more than an hour, the first body was finally completely excavated and carried to the ground by several workers.
This is a young woman of about thirty years old. Although she does not know how long she has been buried underground, she still looks lifelike. She does not look like she is dead at all, as if she is asleep.
Rudy had scanned these two corpses before and found nothing special.
There is no magic core in its body, or any signs of using some kind of magic potion.
He was certain that these two women were ordinary people before they died.
So after digging it out, Rudy didn't rush forward to check, but motioned to Judy and Clarissa to go up and have a look.
Judy was once a very diligent killer, and Clarissa was also an expert in alchemy. Maybe they could find some clues on the body.
At the same time, the second body was dug out.
This is a blond girl of sixteen or seventeen years old, quite beautiful, wearing pajamas, lying there quietly, as if sleeping.
Based on the looks of these two women, even if they are not mother and daughter, there must be some kind of blood relationship between them.
Several workers dug up two corpses and climbed up from below tremblingly. The foreman who was the leader wanted to say something, but when he saw Rudy and Judy's knight uniforms, his lips trembled a few times and he was too afraid to say anything.
Voice.
Rudy glanced at them: "The wages were calculated separately, one silver coin per person."
When several workers heard this, their eyes suddenly lit up. In less than two hours, they dug a few shovels and got a silver coin. The resentment they felt just now disappeared.
Rudy ordered them to wait outside, and then looked at the two corpses.
He was thinking that if Judy and Clarice couldn't see anything, they would hand over the body to the Knights later.
There are many talents of all kinds in the Knights. People like him may not have strong fighting ability, but they are definitely very knowledgeable in all aspects.
However, at this moment, Rudy suddenly changed his expression and jumped back suddenly.
At the same time, two gravitational forces were sent out, quickly pulling Judy and Clarice back around the body.
The two women immediately screamed in surprise.
But in the blink of an eye, he was already back by Rudy's side.
Immediately, he saw a layer of light green smoke rising from the surface of the two corpses, as if it was alive, and rolled towards the location where the two of them were.
If Rudy hadn't reacted quickly and pulled them back in advance, they would have come into contact with the two unknown green gases.
Judy and Clarisse looked at each other with lingering fears.
