Chapter 195: Life After Death 10
André was also in the wooden house, and when he saw Ed coming in, he came over worriedly and pointed to the grain and grass wrapped in a trace of black gas and said, "Ed, what a poison! ”
Nourished by the druid's energy, the black aura gradually intensified, gradually expanded, and exploded in a very short period of time, covering the entire test sample.
"Well, it's confirmed to be a plant-based toxin, which has been ground into a colorless and odorless powder that adheres to the surface. "There is a Druid apprentice next to him.
Ed walked over to Malorn, who had stopped the experiment, and told him what he knew.
"The water demon grass should be a very rare plant, but if we have some time, we may be able to find a way to restrain it. Apparently, Malonene doesn't know much about this remote poisonous weed. "In addition, we have also brought in soldiers in the army to check on their poisoning, and in the back, Ed, you come with me. ”
Following the son of the buck, Ed walked inside to continue his inspection.
On the other hand, the crown prince's speech didn't last long, and when the closing words came out, the crowd finally let out their first collective cheers, and even Ed felt the cabin shake a few times by the sound.
Next, a batch of breakfast purified by Di Lia was distributed, and those who did not arrive were not in a hurry, and they watched the commander sprinkle white light with his cane in front of each pot of food, blessing his food, and their hearts were filled with happiness.
As Ed had said before, the soldiers only wanted to receive the sacrament that had been blessed by the Holy Maiden, and even if they were hungry, they waited willingly. And those who finished swore to the rest that it was the most delicious meal they'd had in recent times. It seems that the body is suddenly full of vitality and becomes hot.
Ed looked at the excited expressions on the soldiers' faces. As well as the reluctant demeanor of some people, it is impossible to guess whether this joy is completely due to the natural reaction of the human body after getting a full meal after starvation, or whether Di Lia really added something to it.
He came out of Malone's and waited for a while, and also tasted the poisoned food himself, because the food of these high-ranking generals was stored and transported separately, which was different from ordinary soldiers, so Ed did not find any relevant toxins in his body.
It wasn't until there that Delia had appeased the slightly dissatisfied crown prince and repeatedly assured him that with his speech, the soldiers would exert more powerful combat power to ensure that the coronation ceremony went smoothly. Ed and the other three met again to summarize what they had discovered.
Because the grain and grass carried by the army at the beginning had been exhausted some time ago, everyone ate the grain and grass transported by the supply line in the past two days, and there were already trace amounts of toxins precipitated in the body.
Ed asked Andre to go and inspect the grain transported in different batches after numbering it, and he suspected that the enemy psykers had secretly mixed into the convoy and poisoned the convoy during the time when his knights were not escorted, and it was only troublesome to hide from ordinary soldiers, but not impossible.
"Try to find good food and prioritize it!" said Deria. Although she herself can use divine magic to purify, it is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and it is a great burden on her body, and she has to deal with all 30,000 people's food and grass alone. It's impossible.
"How about I suggest a coronation a day earlier to force that damn Cole out, didn't Ed say that was his deadline?" Andre said viciously. It's irritating to mess with the logistics he's responsible for, even though neither Ed nor Deria puts the blame on him. André himself hated Ingier's despicable commander.
"I'll try as much as I can, there may be some resistance from the crown prince. After all, the date announced to the public is the day after tomorrow. "Delia is only about half of it, but it's worth a try.
"If so, there's a lot of work to prepare. Ed stood up and walked to the window, I don't know how many soldiers will die in the decisive battle?
In the afternoon, the situation was almost completely under control, and Malloyn mobilized all the druids to prepare more than a dozen cauldrons of antidote for everyone, which were distributed in the name of Deria, and it is said that there were people who were reluctant to drink it, and wanted to bring this holy water back to their families, so that Andre, who was in charge of the matter, could not cry and laugh.
Later, Ed took Delia to the basement and helped Scott continue his treatment with the help of her magic skills, and once again got more news, and even the other party had the intention of helping Ed's side with advice.
After walking out, Di Liya still had the shadow of that terrible lump of flesh in front of her eyes, lingering, and she couldn't bear to say to Ed: "Actually, if I go all out, I should be able to help him reshape his body and recover completely." ”
"That's too much of a burden on you, especially at this critical juncture, and we can't use your power here. Ed would never agree to the other party's doing.
"But if it is delayed any longer, it will not be possible to recover after a certain period of time, and it is not possible to use divine magic to maintain it with the power of the star spirit at present, but it is not a way to continue for a long time!"
Ed already had an idea in his mind about this, and when he helped Scott treat, he used the information about the medical technology of another world in the inscription, although the biomedical knowledge in it could not be used to recreate a human body, but combined with some of the magical powers of this world, there may be great potential to be explored.
appeased Di Liya and shifted the focus of the topic to the current situation, after all, on one side is the life and death of a captive, and on the other side is the survival of tens of thousands of soldiers and a country, Di Liya knows which side is heavier.
When Ed told Scott about the current situation, the idea put forward by the other party was very tempting to the young man, and he planned to pretend that the whole army was poisoned and lost his combat effectiveness, and then gave the enemy an ambush urn to catch turtles, I really couldn't see that this person was a knight, and there was no trace of this noble spirit on him.
After a rough discussion, the plan was decided, and it was everyone's wish to end this morning, and if nothing else, it was likely that tomorrow would be the day of the decisive battle.
On the one hand, they sent people out to spread the news, and the coronation ceremony of the crown prince was held a day earlier, and on the other hand, all the forces were slowly shrunk back, and the soldiers were informed in advance of when the enemy was likely to attack, and they had to make all preparations beforehand.
