Chapter 37: Kim Wasek
Let the opponent lower his guard and rescue the doctor by surprise - this was Agaté's plan. Moreover, the facts are already moving in this direction.
However, when Agaté took the most crucial step, a certain uncomfortable feeling made his hair stand on end.
The rich combat experience allowed Agaté to immediately judge what it was—it was the cold touch of passing death when being targeted by a sniper.
Somewhere on the outer edge of the airship, the sound of a sniper rifle rang out, whistling past the vital point of Agaté's neck. Thanks to this is a low-power guide gun, if it is a traditional gunpowder sniper rifle, I am afraid that it will be seriously injured.
"Wow, the weapon used for the test is so powerful......" The eyes of the man in black were full of surprise as he watched Agaté forcibly twist his body and try to dodge the bullet, but he was still badly bruised.
"Brother Agaté! Are you okay! Joshua hurried to hold Agat, who was about to collapse to the ground.
"I'm fine...... Agaté snapped, trying to get to his feet. And it did, and it looked unscathed.
It's just that after such a delay, everyone can only watch as Dr. Russell was captured by the men in black and disappeared into the air.
"Anyway...... Let's go back to Chase. Estelle's tone couldn't hide her frustration, "I have to go back to the guild and report to Miss Kirika about that airship first......"
Everyone nodded, and no one noticed that Agaté had secretly touched his bruised shoulder with his uninjured hand.
——————————————————————————
"Yo?" On the way back to Chase, when the group reached the fork in the road between the village of Almo and the city, they came across a tall man they had met before. The man's long reddish-brown hair was neatly tied back at the back of his head, and the muscles on his arms were knotted and covered with various tiny wounds. The height of nearly two sub-moments makes people have to look up. Several people had met him the day before yesterday, when the man in front of him was asking how to get to the village of Almo.
"The ...... she met on her return from Amo" was a very conspicuous target, and Estelle remembered it very well.
"Haha, thank you so much for showing you the way." The man waved his hand heartily, and the wine gourd around his waist swayed with his movements, "But we are really destined to meet you on the street." ”
"yes. So, the uncle also went to Yarmo to soak in the hot springs, right? ”
"Don't call me uncle......" Seeing that he was being called older, the man showed a depressed application, but soon, he noticed that there was a person in front of him who seemed to look even more depressed.
"By the way, this little brother doesn't seem to have seen it before." After looking Agaté up and down, the man suddenly said, "You don't look good, doesn't it matter?" ”
"Huh?" Only then did everyone notice that Agaté, who looked completely normal just now, was now blue, covered in cold sweat, and his steps were erratic, and he could barely stand firmly. It is clear that this is a symptom of poisoning.
"It's noisy...... Didn't you say it's okay............ Woo ......" recklessly, after saying this, Agaté's eyes darkened and he fainted.
"Hey, hey......" Estelle looked a little confused, what was going on?
"I'm afraid that those men in black used poisonous bullets in their shooting just now......," Fei gritted her teeth.
"But didn't the bullet fail to hit Agaté?" Looking at the clearly visible abrasion on Agaté's shoulder, Joshua was puzzled. Even if the bullet is poisonous and doesn't get into the body, it won't attack like this.
"The pupils are dilated, there is a precipitation of black substance in the blood vessels, and breathing is disordered." After briefly examining Agaté's injuries, Helliga judged, "I'm afraid it's a vegetative nerve poison." ”
"I agree. If he continues like this, his life will be in danger. The tall man also agreed with Heiliga.
"Anyway, get him to a place where there is a treatment facility!" Estelle said eagerly, "Is there a place around here that can help him heal?" ”
"Central Workshop." Fei calmly pointed out the answer, there was an infirmary on the fourth floor.
“…… Your habit of observing your environment has paid off, Fei. Heliga nodded, he had no idea that there was an infirmary on the fourth floor, "Without further ado, let's take Agaté with us...... Go back ......."
Looking at Agaté's sturdy body, like a buffalo lying lifeless on the ground, Helriga fell into deep thought—how to get Agaté back? This wilderness ......
"I'll carry him back. Looking at his head, it seems that only I can do this job. As if seeing Heliga's distress, the man readily made a suggestion.
"Hey...... May I!? Estelle said happily.
"Anyway, leave the coolie work to me." The man shrugged his shoulders and smiled again, "And...... It seems that we are still walking together. ”
"Peer ...... Are you ...... too?"
"Ah, I haven't introduced myself yet. Kim Vasek – a guerrilla association affiliated with the Republic. Please advise. Fellow guerrillas of the kingdom. ”
————————————————————————————————
In the infirmary of the Central Workshop, when Agat, who was suffering from a high fever and had been invaded by toxins all over his body, was carried in, Dr. Minyam's grim look was enough to explain the seriousness of the matter.
While telling the ins and outs of the matter, the doctor's face became more and more ugly while performing various examinations and operations.
"In short, the emergency treatment is done." The doctor looked at Agaté lying on the bed and said distressedly, "But this seems to be a very special nerve poison." I've tried all the antidotes in general, but they didn't work. ”
"Heliga, what about the bottles and cans you messed up before?" While the doctor was still intently explaining to Tita, the girl had become more concerned about the whole thing after learning that Agaté had been seriously injured in order to save her grandfather at risk, Feye asked Hayliga softly.
“…… It's okay to use it yourself...... But this time, since even the doctor said he didn't know what the toxin was......" Helriga smiled bitterly, implying that he didn't want to make things worse because of himself.
"A strong man like him can still hold on...... But if it continues like this, it is still life-threatening. ”
"How could it be ......," Tita cried in frustration.
"It's a pity that with my knowledge...... As long as you don't know the specific composition of this poison, there is no way to detoxify this gentleman. The doctor shook his head helplessly, "But ...... Perhaps the Diocese of Pixaine ......"
"The Rector of Pixaine?" Estelle repeated the name.
"Qiyao Church has accumulated nearly 1,000 years of traditional medical knowledge. Especially in pharmacy, they have a variety of unique secret recipes. Perhaps there will be a cure for an unknown poison in the church. Minia explained.
After that, Helliga decided to go ahead and go to the church to ask the rector for help. Tita eagerly followed, wanting to lead the way for Heliga, and the latter did not refuse, anyway, there was no danger in the city, so let Tita do something.
Walking through the streets and alleys, a huge building with the special logo of the Qiyao Church appeared in front of the two of them.
