The room is spacious, in addition to a single bed for your own sleep, there is a desk, a chair, and a separate bathroom. But what was supposed to be an exit was a gate made of metal railings.

Taria got up and walked over, frowned and looked closer, and found that there seemed to be a magic pattern on this door, and she didn't dare to reach out and touch it, because the level of this magic pattern was too high, and she couldn't understand it at all.

As for the fact that she was imprisoned, Taria actually expected it in her heart. After all, before she fell unconscious, she was already in a state of "out of control", and even hurt Nephie - she was so distraught that she paced back and forth in the room for a while, and when she heard a noise outside, she immediately leaned over and found a dragon with horns on his head walking with five or six mages.

The group were all dressed in distinctly standard robes, with rank insignia on their chests, and several of them had strange instruments in their hands with charged hedrons stuck in them.

"Tarya Gaelan. ”

"Ahh Yes, it's me. ”

Hearing those cold but majestic words, Taria felt her scalp tighten. She straightened up, as if she were on trial.

But what happened next was not as terrible as she imagined - the dragon glanced at the paper in his hand, asked the door to open, and said, "I'm Yuslian, the elder of the Green Dragon Clan. I am responsible for the treatment of all demon-infested humans, but all of this will require your cooperation first. For the record, I can't confirm the length of the treatment, because some people can recover and some may never recover, depending on your own ability. ”

Tarya nodded quickly, she stood in the room a little confused, but now she was sure that the other party was indeed planning to "treat" her.

But she was also a little worried: "That... Elder Yusrian, does this cost a lot of money?"

These words made Yuslian and the other mages in front of him stunned, and they looked at each other with strange expressions, and one of the mages seemed to almost hold back, and lowered his head and rubbed his mouth.

The Green Dragon Elder cleared his throat and replied, "That's why I'm here now—that's right, because the 'Demon Invasion' will cause a certain connection between you and ordinary demonic creatures, which will help us carry out research on demons, so we need your assistance in this regard during the healing process... Well, it's just some tests and filling out forms and stuff like that, and you don't have to do much. ”

He said as he handed over the stack of papers in his hand: "Of course, we will not force you to do these things, if you agree, after signing this agreement, we will waive all the fees you have here, including treatment, room and board, etc." If you refuse, you will need to pay an additional fee for the treatment, which is an approximate amount. ”

Tarya glanced at the long list of numbers and hurriedly responded: "I'll sign it!"

She looked through the stack of papers, and immediately realized that the treaty on it was not harsh, and even very broad - to Taria's surprise, her range of activities was not completely limited to this room, but could be "released" at the specified time... That is, access to some public areas that are specially designed for those infected with "demonic infestation".

Nominally, it's for their "mental health".

As long as she is accompanied by special personnel, she can even go to the library inside the magic tower to borrow books for free.

This made Talia feel dizzy when she was hit by a pie falling from the sky, because the library here was a dream for countless mages, and she signed it with trembling hands and asked, "Really... Can I go to the lecture?"

"There are only some specific courses, and most of the lectures are often without seats, and now there are many mages who come to Holier City, and the lectures are basically hard to get, and if the level is not enough, it will be in vain to go, you understand?"

Elder Yuslian seemed to be a little impatient, but his face still maintained the most basic politeness. Taria immediately knew that she had asked too much, and hurriedly handed the agreement back, but was stopped by Yuslian: "This is a soul agreement, and the highest-level agreement is not just as simple as signing. ”

Speaking of this, the other mages behind him immediately stepped forward and assembled the things they were holding into a magic circle, and Taria was asked to stand on the magic circle and re-read the main terms of the agreement, after the highest-level "soul contract" was imprinted, she immediately realized that she did not have any contact with the dragon elder in front of her, but felt a strange resonance with the entire magic tower.

"Well, thank you for your willingness to participate in our research. This is your schedule of activities, in a sense, you are now a collaborator in the research department, and while we have a series of surveillances on you for security, I want you to realize that you still retain most of your power, including correspondence with friends and the like. ”

Speaking of this, Talia immediately asked, "By the way, my friend Nephie - she seems to have been injured by me, I want to ask... How is she now?"

Unaware of this, Yuslian turned to look at his assistants, one of whom replied, "Is that the mage you knocked away? If there's any news, I'll pass it on when the time comes. ”

"Okay, okay, thank you!"

Tarya was grateful, and didn't dare to ask for anything more. Yuslian and his other assistants then conducted a series of tests on her, and came to the conclusion that "Invasion Level: 6" - according to them, "10" is the highest level, which is basically incurable, and Taria is obviously still saved.

"The specific arrangements for the treatment are arranged in the form you have in hand, and there will be one this afternoon. Okay, just take care of the rest of the time, and remember that no matter where you go, someone must be with you. Mage Sylvia, you stay here. ”

"Yes, Elder Yusrian. ”

After Sylvia saluted, Yuslian turned and headed for another room, like the chief physician of the hospital, and said, "Who's next?"

And after the voice gradually became quieter, Taria cautiously greeted Sylvia, who did not remain serious, and smiled: "Actually, your condition is quite controllable, at present, a special isolation circle is used in the magic tower, and usually the patients who are attacked do not show particularly serious symptoms, so don't worry about what other appearance you will become for the time being..."

"Will there be a big change in the demon invasion?"

Taria suddenly felt her scalp tighten, and Sylvia smiled as if she hadn't seen it, and invited: "In this way, I can take you to the exhibition hall first to popularize some knowledge, how about it?"
