Chapter 876: Countermeasures Against the Plague of the Undead (Part I)
"A naughty but smart kid, you've taken in a good student, Currian. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"
After the fairy dragon Yala left, the Jade Dragon Queen Ysera Blue Dragon King Essoregos had a good evaluation of her, but as a mentor, Kurian smiled bitterly, his student did have extraordinary talent, but that strong curiosity and desire for knowledge was a headache, and after peeking at his own information, he privately began to study the elemental gems, and successfully carried out the fusion of the three elements without conflict, but at the cost of her laboratory at least a dozen times.
"Currian, you'd better temporarily revoke Yara's access to your lab for the time being. After the praise, Ysera also changed her words and said: "The next series of research work can't let her break in casually, if something goes wrong, it will bring disaster to the entire Huizhidu." ”
The Blue Dragon Great Sage Kurian nodded solemnly: "I understand, Your Majesty the Dragon Queen. ”
Kurian nodded: "According to our research, this new type of plague is similar to a toxin in nature, allowing the infected to directly resurrect the unconscious undead state after death, and indiscriminately attack anyone who has not been infected, and at this time, the resurrected undead can be determined to have no self-awareness, it is completely similar to a beast, just loyal to instinct in action." ”
Ysera's brows furrowed when she heard this, after she woke up, there was bad news one after another from the Holy Capital and the Radiant Capital, compared to the White Dragon King who woke up but was still thousands of miles away in the Yanod Mountains, the undead who had been raging for a long time in the western part of the continent were more troublesome existences, compared to the seemingly more terrifying but in fact they could only let some cultists carry out kidnapping activities, at most, it was to summon some demons to cause a certain impact on a certain area of the painful master, the army of the undead really launched a war to conquer the city, and also successfully counter-encircled and suppressed the crusade army sent by a country and turned all the war dead into undead。
It is precisely because of this huge record that for a while, the undead army in the western part of the continent completely stole the limelight of the demons in the distorted void, which made the entire continent be taken by surprise, not only did the countries strengthen the control of necromancy, but even the Holy See secretly strengthened the vigilance of various dioceses.
In addition to the undead army showing strong military strength, what is even more troublesome is a plague spread by the undead!
The plague sample sent back by the blue dragon mage Maiisar who assisted the countries in the western part of the continent in the fight against the undead in the Holy Capital is extremely amazing, this is a new plague that has never been heard of before, or it can be described as a kind of undead spell that has been spread in the form of a plague, which can make people who are infected with the plague resurrect directly after death, eliminating the transformation process of the necromancer to the corpse, and what is even more terrifying is that until now, whether it is in the secular realm or in the Radiant Capital, the dragons have not been able to find an effective way to cure this plague, and can only watch the people infected with the plague slowly weaken until they die, and then it will not take long to wake up and start attacking the livingUntil now, the blue dragons have only found a low temperature to let the infected people with the plague enter a state of suspended animation to alleviate the onset of symptoms.
According to the statistics of the Holy Capital, the Holy Capital has now fully contained more than 100,000 patients in the ice coffin to maintain a state of hypothermia and suspended animation, and with the increase in the number of people, the magical resources of the Holy Capital have also begun to become strained. Although the undead seem to be planning something to temporarily stop the offensive, but because of the raging plague, the Holy Capital does not dare to easily coordinate the coalition forces of various countries to launch a counteroffensive, as long as there is no way to cure the plague, the undead army is like a natural barrier that makes people unable to start at all, if they rashly launch an attack, maybe more soldiers will die of the plague than in battle.
"Your Majesty, although this plague has not yet shown signs of the worst airborne transmission, through the water, The speed at which the grain and the undead creatures themselves spread is also very alarming, and the most terrifying thing about the plague is that it not only causes the living to die and become undead, but the ground it touches will also quickly wither and die, according to the druids' analysis of the areas occupied by the undead, the soil in those areas has been completely necrotic, and it is estimated that there will be no grass for hundreds of years, and the plague is still spreading further and contaminating more land, even if the druids purify it now, it will take at least twenty years or so to restore the land in the contaminated area。 ”
As the emerald green dragon of Ysera's heart surging with anger, as the embodiment of nature of the green dragon is most disgusted is any destruction of the balance of nature, of course, for mortals to cut down forests and hunt animals green dragons will not be unreasonable to stop, after all, the development of any civilization is inseparable from the demand for nature, but the green dragons do not like anyone to take too much from nature, which will inevitably lead to the weakening of nature's self-repair ability or even complete destruction, and without the support of nature, mortals will not be able to survive。
The undead are not welcome with the living, after all, death is taboo for anyone! And the Holy Capital and the Holy See also believe that the so-called 'undead' undead should exist in this world, and that the alternation of life and death is the rule of this world, and even stupid people understand that if there are really undead people, then the world will inevitably collapse completely due to excessive population over time.
It's just that there is no so-called eternity in this world, and the Jade Dragon Queen, as a transcendent being, also knows very well that even the feared island of the undead, Aisolos, and the necromancers who live on it and awaken from death in the eyes of the world are not in fact undead, they just continue in another way. It's just living in this world, and sooner or later, when the obsession of the immortal undead dies will also be the time when they return to death, even if it is the soul materialization spell invented by the former undead mentor Kemotnir Atholos, it can't really make a person immortal in the end, otherwise how can this ritual spell be completely lost now?
The undead on the island of the dead are not interested in power, they are more like some researchers and scholars who are full of curiosity about 'death', and it is precisely because they have 'lived' in the world in another way instead of really breaking the boundaries of life and death, so the emerald green dragons do not want to destroy them in the name of justice, after all, the undead rarely appear on the mainland for a long time, and occasionally only because of the collection of materials will come to the mainland to cause some things that are not big or small.
Compared with the Holy See's complete disgust with the undead, in fact, the Holy Capital and the Radiant Capital are a little more tolerant, of course, only a little bit
But this time is different, the undead army that suddenly appeared in the western part of the continent not only caused destruction among the living, but also continued to erode and damage nature and the world itself like a plague, if they are not quickly dealt with and completely eradicated, then the land will be turned into a lifeless burial ground wherever the undead army goes, and this kind of thing must not be allowed to continue to happen.
Both the Radiant Capital and the Holy Capital are working day and night on the undead plague, but the more they research, the more terrifying they are about this unknown plague, which can not only corrupt humans, elves, Dwarves and other races become undead, and even animals and plants will be transformed into undead creatures, in the blue dragon's experiment, a plague-fed mouse died and resurrected after a few hours, and the resurrected mouse also began to attack its own kind like an undead creature, and several mice in the cage were bitten to death and transformed into undead, and the plant was injected with the plague after several strains withered and died, but another one withered and sprouted again, but it strangely grew into a highly aggressive carnivorous plant and also has the ability to spread the plague。
As he researched it, a blue dragon mage even thought that even the dragon might not be exempt from the plague, just because no dragon dared to experiment on himself, let alone the remains of his dead kind, so he couldn't be sure if this idea was correct, but it was estimated that the destructive and contagious nature of the undead plague was quite high.
"It's hard to believe, but existence is fact. Ysera couldn't help but be dumbfounded: "Is there really no way to restrain this plague at all? We also know that no matter what kind of plague it is, if the patient is only slightly infected, then relying on its own ability can still support the self-healing in the past." ”
"We experimented with the Dragon Queen, Your Majesty, after diluting the plague, we experimented with monkeys, and although a small amount of plague slowed down the monkeys' deaths, in the end the plague always prevailed over the infected. ”
Blue Dragon King Aetheregos also added at this time.
"Light element┉┉" Ysera's expression was a little complicated: "It reacts to the overhead element, but what about the dark element?"
Hearing this bad news, Ysera could only sigh helplessly: "Then how about using the light element to purify the land contaminated by the plague?"
"Then I leave this matter to you, Lord Aethoregos. ”
Domination of the Spiritual Consciousness Body!?
A strange glint flashed in Isera's eyes, but the Dragon Queen didn't say anything and continued to listen to the Blue Dragon King's explanation. (To be continued.) )
