Chapter 104: Collecting the Plague

"The medicine is for a while." The innkeeper smiled wryly and said, "It's just a little late." ”

"Before the medicine arrived, the epidemic was already under control, and the authorities had to clear an area close to the city wall as a strict lockdown quarantine area, and arrest and send in all infected people who were found in public."

Soon the order in the quarantine area collapsed, and it was said that it was full of lifeless thugs and desperate infected people, and everyone talked about it. After the medicine arrived, no one dared to enter the quarantine area to deliver it. The city guards had to climb the walls and regularly drop medicine and food supplies from the walls every day, leaving the people in the quarantine area to scramble. ”

"You say, how can the epidemic be controlled? It's the equivalent of a large group of time bombs in the quarantine area, living a life of immortality, and there are ...... slipping out of it every day"

"Slip out?" Sheila asked, "How did you sneak out?" ”

"There are so many ways." "Most of them are digging tunnels, and it's hard to prevent them. Occasionally, the infected person reached out at night, found the weak point of the patrol of the separation line, and wiped the guards from behind. ”

"When these people come out, they usually rob the house, grab food and medicine, kill the owner and occupy the house. However, most of them were seriously ill, and in this way they brought the plague out, and when they died in the house, and when they were slow to find out, often the neighbors would suffer. Many people don't dare to say anything when they find out that they are infected, for fear of being sent to quarantine, and as a result, they will continue to infect people nearby......"

"Alas, the Earl is also too indecisive and not neat enough. If you want me to say, either kill all the infected people in the quarantine area, or organize death squads to send drugs in to control the epidemic, how can there be such a non-superior, you say? ”

Eleanor's face turned a little pale, although she had never seen it with her own eyes, but just listening to the innkeeper's description, she could probably imagine what kind of hell would be like in the quarantine area today.

"Indeed." Medea deliberately showed a sympathetic expression, "But the Earl is also embarrassed, right?" After all, you have to deal with the invasion of neighboring principalities at this time......"

"Phew!" As soon as he heard that someone was defending the earl, the innkeeper was really fooled and blurted out disdainfully, "If you want me to say, why hasn't the epidemic been controlled until now?" It's because a large number of people have been transferred to the border defense! As a result, there is a serious shortage of manpower in the city, so the quarantine area is such a thing as a palliative but not a cure! ”

"Not to mention, in the middle of the night, the third watch also dragged people out of their homes to recruit into the army...... he suddenly knew that he was speechless, and hurriedly urged impatiently to cover up: "How many of you plan to stay in the hotel?" Or eating? ”

Medea, who had already received enough information from the innkeeper, was about to smile and say no, when she heard Aske say in the back:

"Let's stay in the hotel, let's open a room first."

"A room?" The innkeeper looked at Yingying Yanyan behind him, and his face couldn't help but show a look of admiration as if he was looking at a strong man, and said with a smile:

"Okay, a double room, do you need props to cheer up? We've got miraculous oil from the East......"

"No, you don't." Asker interrupted him.

This is a true hero...... The innkeeper couldn't help but sweat for the other party's kidneys.

After getting the money for the room, the boss took the other party and the group to the largest room upstairs, and said courteously:

"There was water in the room, all boiled and cooled, absolutely no problem. The shop is open for lunch and dinner, and in the basement, you can pick up a mask from your room if you go out. In addition, the sound insulation of the walls is very good, so you don't have to worry. ”

The owner left, and by the way, he closed the door. The girls looked a little embarrassed.

Generally speaking, everyone goes out to open a room, because of the existence of the fire island, but there is no need to worry about the bed is not enough to sleep, and it is a waste of money to open multiple rooms.

Therefore, it is common to be misunderstood, and in the past, everyone listened to jokes, and when they left, they would jokingly discuss who was the rightful wife of the main house, Hood was Asker's son and whose son, whether Mia and Mier were daughters or lovers, and so on.

It's just that at some point, such jokes became less and less, and now they all kept their faces and didn't speak, as if the boss didn't say anything just now.

"Ahem, that ......," Nou coughed, and said unnaturally, "I'll go back first, those flowers and plants haven't been watered yet." ”

"I'm going to break down those three characteristics." Medea smiled.

"I'll have to practice martial arts with Eleanor, Eleanor, right?" Even Sidlifa, a silly girl, showed a rare expression of weakness.

"Huh? Uh-huh, that's right. Eleanor was a little overwhelmed.

Wow, smack, more than half of the people were gone at once. Only four underage girls were left, looking at each other.

Hmph, all of them are so weak that they are dying, and it's best to go. Peggy thought to herself with some conceit, and then turned her wary gaze to Sheila.

Mi'er and Mia are too young, and the head of the group must not be eye-catching. My only nemesis is you! Theodora!

"Asker, are you trying to enter the quarantine zone?" Sheila asked, but her eyes slipped over at Peggy.

The girl's attention is still so sharp...... Asker coughed and said:

"Yes."

"As we all know, transcendent sequences are ever-changing, and all kinds of abilities have corresponding effects, limitations, and prerequisites."

"Among them, the plague, toxin, alchemy and other sequences, their strength lies in the bonus of creativity. They don't have an immediate change in strength on their own, but they do have the potential to become creative stronger. ”

Is this talking about my extraordinary abilities? Peggy was a little skeptical when she heard this.

At present, her fighting style is basically based on physical skills and swordsmanship, and she rushes behind the opponent with a super-high-speed body to get it with a single sword. If it is a difficult enemy that cannot be dealt with with a single sword, then the Immortal Phantom Sword divides five phantoms to quickly besiege it, and a few more swords.

What life stealing, what toxin, what plague ability, are not very commonly used anymore, because the opposite side can't last that long, if you can kill the enemy in seconds, then why take more time?

But anyway, as long as Aske says it should be like this, that's it! So Peggy behaved and continued to listen to Asker's analysis:

"Later we may encounter a more formidable enemy. For example, the Lord of Filth last time, lv.19, is strong enough, right? It's not that we're going to be surrounded and killed, but what are you going to do if Peggy puts yourself in that position? ”

"The head of the regiment will never let me fall into that situation." Peggy is confident.

"That's true, but I'm not omnipotent." Asker said against his will, "Well, at least think about what if." ”

"What the head of the regiment means by this is that the probability of one in ten thousand will make us in danger, and in the case of nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine in ten thousand, he will cover us!" Mia and Mi'er began to chew on the root of their tongue.

"Go, go, go." Asker herded the two eccentric creatures to Hearth, and then continued to get down to business, "Peggy, the greatest lethality of the plague sequence is to collect more powerful plagues. The strength of the plague you have will make a world of difference in how it performs on the battlefield. And the plague left behind by the Lord of Filth last time is the first disease you will have to master. ”

"Plague is caused by Yersinia pestis and there is variation. Even if it is the same bacteria, the strains in different infected people are different, and the virulence and infectivity are also different. ”

"You only have Plague I now, and you can't do your own work to improve the genetic material of the pathogen in your body, so this time we will first aim to collect the strongest plague bacilli from the outside world."
