"In this way, this task is fair, beyond our ability, and even if we fail, we will be rewarded, which is still more reasonable. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info"
"Reasonable? But someone will die because of it! The client of this kind of task will have to pay a higher fee to initiate the commission task in the future, and this amount will be lifelong. ”
Walter explained.
"I see, but I'm afraid this situation is also an emergency, right? After all, it's not common to encounter such tough robbers, and they didn't expect things to develop to this extent, right? ”
"No, our box of medicines is just a cover-up. The real task is actually this. ”
Coffey pulled an envelope out of his bosom and wrote an A in the corner of the envelope.
"What? A-level missions? You secretly took on an A-class mission? ”
"Shhhh In fact, we have a total of three task teams this time, and they all carry this, but whether they can successfully reach the destination is unknown, as long as one team completes the delivery, our mission is completed. ”
"Of course, those partners who sacrifice for the mission will be compensated with the highest amount."
"Everyone is dead, and make up for it! No sincerity at all! Xun Dan roared, Xun Dan still couldn't accept this kind of behavior of taking on tasks behind his back.
"Please understand, we are shouldering the safety of a city person's life!" Walter said, and it was clear from the look in his eyes that he meant it.
"The safety of the lives of people in a city? What the hell is going on? ”
"We're not doing it for our own selfish gain, but there's a strange contagion in Kando City......"
According to Walter's account, there was a widespread flu outbreak in the city of Cando.
Patients present with flu-like symptoms at the initial stage, including fever, cough, headache, muscle aches, and general malaise, as well as runny nose, nasal congestion, and sore throat.
Chest tightness, shortness of breath, and dyspnea in the early stages of the disease often indicate rapid progression of intrapulmonary lesions, which will rapidly progress to severe hypoxia and respiratory failure.
Severe patients have rapid progression, most of them have severe pneumonia in 5~7 days, most of them have body temperature above 39C, dyspnea, and may be accompanied by hemoptysis. It can rapidly progress to acute respiratory distress syndrome, sepsis, septic shock, and some patients may develop mediastinal emphysema, pleural effusion, etc.
A considerable proportion of critically ill patients have damage or failure of multiple other systems or organs at the same time, such as heart failure due to myocardial injury, individual patients also show digestive symptoms such as gastrointestinal bleeding and emergency ulcers, and some critically ill patients have coma and impaired consciousness.
Influenza, bloody sputum...... Other people may not know what this disease is, but as a reborn, he certainly knows that this is the "bird flu virus" that was all the rage back then!
"Is there any poultry in Cando City?" Xun Dan asked, his voice was already trembling involuntarily at this time.
"Huh? I didn't expect you to know anything about Kando City, which is one of the few poultry farming cities in the Abyss, and these poultry are for people above the earl to enjoy. ”
Walter said.
After staying in the abyss for so long, Xun Dan can be regarded as having found the root of the problem, and this result makes him shudder.
If it is true, the "avian influenza virus" is likely to be a virus developed by the "Eternals", then the culprit of the original disaster to the lives of countless living beings is ultimately human!
Xun Dan, Lucy, and John, the three immortal terminators, risked their lives to come to the abyss, just to know the information about the "Eternals", and they had just gotten a little source at this time, but since they had arrived here, he must know the truth of the matter.
"It's Kando City in front of me, and the magic power has almost dried up, if it weren't for the fact that this is an A-class person who is hanging from the sky, I wouldn't have risked my life to come here." Walter said.
"Didn't you just swear that it was for the safety of the lives of the people of a city? Why did you reveal your true colors so quickly? ”
Xun Dan teased.
"You don't understand this, there is no conflict between remuneration and merit, although the soldiers who defend the country are sacred, but they also need salary protection, they can't go to the battlefield hungry, right? My reward for completing A-level assignments is only a part of what I deserve. ”
"Forget it, I won't fight with you, you are the messenger of light, the embodiment of justice, okay?"
"I'm not from the Light Department, by the way, it's better not to show your identity as a Light Mage in front of them, otherwise ......"
"Is there anything wrong?"
"Uh...... Forget it, you have to firmly believe in your faith, as a light magician, you must not bear to leave these human sufferings in nothing! ”
Walter nodded, as if to convince himself.
"Okay, don't bother, I used to pretend to be very tall and silent, but now I have become like an old woman nagging endlessly, I really convince you." Coffey said from the side.
"It's not that we want to hide our identity, the so-called too many words will be lost, if we really miss something, and grasp the identity of the intermediate magician and leak it, then the possibility of our operation failing is very great." Walter said confidently.
"Alright, alright. The city of Cando has arrived. ”
"Green Ape," Coffey said.
Cando City doesn't look big, it's the size of Farland Town from the outside, but most of the buildings are low, and there are not a few tall buildings to be seen from the outside.
Like other places, the position directly opposite the city gate is still occupied by a "pawn supermarket", but Xun Dan's destination is not here, but directly to the military aircraft of the escort team.
Along the way, Xun Dan found that the people in the city were wearing masks, and the eyes of others were full of suspicion and distrust.
"I suggest we also wear masks, because if we accidentally catch a disease, it will be more than worth the loss." Walter said.
Masks belong to medical supplies, which are one of the most expensive items in Shenzhen, but they should not be too much of a burden for the economic strength of the three people.
"What? One mask 100,000 abyss coins? Coffey jumped straight at the price.
"Don't lie to us because we're not locals, how can the price of such a thing be so outrageous?"
"Objectively, you are wrong to blame me, a few months ago, the price of medical supplies in our city was normal, but now there is an outbreak of disease, and the goods in other cities are not easy to transport, and the people are even more at risk, this price is already a conscience price!"
The shopkeeper said with a look of embarrassment. (To be continued.) )
