Chapter 81: Flying Over the Border
No sooner had Grimm pushed open the door of the Temple of the Gods, which was beautifully carved with relief, than he saw Helen holding a thick book and reading it in the dim candlelight.
"Didn't I tell you not to read at night?"
Green pretended to be angry and closed the book, and then hugged the somewhat thin girl in his arms.
Helen tilted her head to look at Grimm with her eyes as blue as the depths of the sea, and then pressed her head against Grimm's chest.
"I want to help you too," she said, holding out her long, slender fingers and writing in Green's palm.
"Don't overthink it! you can help me by taking care of yourself. Green lowered his head and kissed the girl's good-smelling hair.
He understood why Helen thought that.
Because he has been too busy lately, he doesn't have many opportunities to come to the Temple of the Gods, and Mary is always by his side to help. In addition, Princess Victoria has always appeared on Tequila Island some time ago, and it has been known that she provides illustrations for newspapers.
For Mary's feelings, Green feels that it stems from his inner restlessness after crossing over and the appearance of a girl who has fallen into the country and the city. When he returned, he recognized his heart, and he had done his best to correct his attitude and avoid unnecessary things from happening.
As for Princess Victoria, Green can't say how he feels. Maybe he met such a maverick girl in another world, which made him feel a little familiar, or maybe it was the princess's cheerful and lively personality that never disguised that made him feel a little close, in short, a very subtle feeling, between a friend and a lover......
"I seem to have found a cure for that disease," Grimm was startled by Helen's writing on the palm of his hand as he was in a slight daze.
"Really?" Green looked shocked, could it be that there was no other cure for malaria in this world?
"I'm not sure if it's the epidemic or not, but they have a lot of similarities, so you'd better see for yourself," Helen handed a folded book to Green's hand.
"There are people on the ship who have a strange disease that fluctuates between heat and cold, and people are dying all the time, and we can't go on and bring this disease back to the island......
This is a record of Vikings hundreds of years ago, and can only be found in ancient books handed down by the witches of Vorva to this day.
Green continued to look down.
"We call it Loki's scourge, like that moody evil god, and this disease is playing with our lives......
"O gods, we've met a big dragon on a desert island... Luckily, it's very docile..."
"Haha, I'm laughing to death!" Barney was squirted in the face by the dragon, even though he was about to die, he was still so funny......
"It's unbelievable! Who would have thought that our illness would be cured by the saliva of a dragon, it's not ......?"
The dragon's saliva?Green looked confused.
Since that day's meeting of chiefs, he has received letters from Princess Victoria every day: the epidemic in the tribes has become more and more serious.
He miscalculated some of the information.
Malaria apparently has a longer incubation period in temperate regions, and it may have infected many people before the outbreak of the disease.
The Vikings were mostly unbathing and preferred to wear clothes made of fur and wool, which were prone to parasites.
On the first day after his return, people from all tribes had already died of malaria.
......
On the third day, hundreds of people had died on Thunder God Island, the most severely affected area.
......
On the fifth day, with the exception of Tequila Island, which had been more hygienic from the beginning, people from all other tribes had already contracted malaria, and rumors of the plague of the Black Dragon had been rampant. But no one came to trouble Green at this time, because they were already too busy to take care of themselves.
......
On the seventh day, more than 200 people had died of illness on Thor's Island, and even Yair Orod of the Thor tribe had died of illness, and the number of people who died of illness on King's Island had exceeded 100 on this day.
......
On the tenth day, when Green learned that King Harald was also suffering from malaria, the first case of malaria appeared on Trotham, a young man from the Thor tribe who had come to Trothar on the eve of his order to close the island.
He knew he couldn't wait any longer, and if the spread of malaria wasn't stopped soon, more than a third of the Vikings would probably die from malaria.
In this era before machines, any human power is a precious resource, and if he wants to develop himself, even if there is little hope for the future, he should not sit still, but fortunately Helen has found this way......
Green slammed the book in his hand shut.

King's Castle Council Hall
Seeing Princess Victoria sitting on the Iron Throne, Green ignored everything around him and walked forward quickly, "Your Highness, I have found a cure for malaria!"
Some of the leaders in the hall saw Green walking in and were about to step forward, but when they heard this, they froze in place.
“?”
With her chin in her hand, Princess Victoria, with a melancholy face, immediately turned her gaze to Green's body.
"Your Highness, I need to travel through the sea of mist to find a dragon that will cure malaria with its saliva. ”
Be quiet.
The hall was silent for a long time, and no one said anything.
"He's lying! The last time he said that going to the hot springs would help you avoid getting sick, a lot of people did, but they still got sick. Someone finally spoke loudly.
"Yes, he's a liar! He's just trying to lift the Viking ban. ”
"Damn, does he want to bring more sickness?"
"Catch him! We'll hang him, and his black dragon. ”
......
"Do you want to die?" Listening to the increasingly fierce opposition around him, Green finally couldn't help but erupt.
In the past, he had always had the strength to silence all those who opposed him, but he did not do so, firstly because violence could not solve all problems, and secondly, it was clear that inner approval could bring greater benefits.
It's just that what he didn't expect was that these people were so stubborn, and now that they have reached such a critical juncture, they are still sticking to the old rules.
"This time I must pass through the sea of fog, and no one can stop me. Green said with a cold face as he looked at the many angry Yar.
"Now as long as this plague can be stopped, any means are preferable. Princess Victoria stood up with a frown.
"I have granted Leader Grimm the opportunity to travel through the Misty Sea to find this dragon this time, and if he can cure this malaria, the Viking ban will be lifted from now on! ”
......
In the dreary, empty hall, only Princess Victoria's majestic voice echoed there, and no one objected.
