485. Diagnosis completed

After settling the sacrifice and the surviving family, Lanne went to the outskirts of Kaussos alone, where he erected a stone monument.

It states that the village is only a scorched earth due to the plague, and that no living people are to enter or leave it in the near future.

This was mainly to prevent Kassandra from coming to investigate at Fauber's begging.

Although the woman who was as athletic and beautiful as a female leopard looked powerful and capable of fighting, and there seemed to be some power that Lan En didn't see through.

But the witcher didn't know if she would be as immune to disease as he was.

Extraordinary power is very convenient and good, but it also has its limitations.

It's like a warlock who can summon thunder with a wave of his hand, and can't take care of his hemorrhoids without potions and amulets.

After doing this, they returned to the charred two-story building, and the priests collected enough supplies from the ruins for the seven of them to live for seven or eight days.

"Separate dwelling, you live on the first floor, and you are in charge of guarding them and not letting them escape."

Lan first told the priest and his guards what to do, then turned to the family of four.

"The plague is terrifying, and you may want to escape in the middle, but I hope you will be sensible about my treatment."

"Now, please go to your assigned position, and we'll get started."

The priest and his guards solemnly agreed, and then walked around the small building with a high expression, as if they were guarding some sacred temple.

And the family of four obediently went upstairs.

After going upstairs, Lan En began to ask questions.

It would not be accurate to say that it was an 'consultation', as Lan had no training as a physician from the beginning to the end.

He only obtained biochemical knowledge from the memories of the pharmacists of the emperor's sons, and used his talent and alchemy knowledge to absorb and modify himself.

Space Marine pharmacists don't work much like ordinary doctors. The smallest guy they had on hand was better than a bone saw.

So compared to a doctor, Lan En is more like a researcher.

But in this era, the intensity of his knowledge is already too high, and the slightest crossover has no effect at all.

"I'm going to examine your body parts and ask you about them, and it's purely for therapeutic reasons, so there's no need to resist and there's no need to be afraid."

Lan En first explained to the family of four what he was going to do, alleviating their fears and knee-jerk resistance.

He began to examine the family's eyelids, tongue coating, and so on, in turn, trying to determine the specific pathological name of the plague.

All of them have sickly flushing and conjunctival hyperemia of the eyeball.

While Lane examined, Mentos was in charge of recording his condition and comparing and sifting through the existing knowledge base.

"You have been living in Kaussos and have witnessed the outbreak of the whole plague. Tell me, what did those patients do before they died? ”

The two adults in the family of four glanced at each other, and their faces showed a fierce emotion of fear and fear, as if just thinking about the images of the past made them feel heartfelt pain.

"The plague has driven them crazy!"

The man said in a trembling voice.

"At first, it was fever and chills, which was nothing to say, just like the wind chill. But later. It must have been the plague that took and polluted their bodies! ”

"They will suddenly have more strength than ordinary people, and then they will keep venting their strength until they run out of energy!"

"And!" The woman also interjected, "We took care of each other at first, and I felt that their skin was not hot at all, but they felt as if they were burned by fire, and they were even willing to strip naked and bury themselves in the water!" ”

The descriptions of the two men appear ghostly and filled with intense fear.

But Lan En didn't show an abnormal demeanor, but continued to check step by step.

This is an era of deification of disasters and natural phenomena, and their descriptions are not unusual, but normal.

Many diseases eventually lead to mania, delirium, and pain sensations caused by nerve damage, which are no different from being cursed and becoming monsters.

Finally, after Lan En examined the little girl Xena, he muttered a conclusion.

"Typhus, most likely this is it."

Within the brain, Mentos agrees with the subject's diagnosis.

"Indeed, sir, they have clearly developed rashes, swollen lymph nodes, enlarged livers and spleens, and eschar from the bites of chigger mite larvae."

It is an acute infectious disease and. It's not easy to treat.

The definition of it is that it is difficult to treat is because most of the treatments required for this disease require chemically synthesized high-efficacy agents. And there is no doubt that in this era and in this region, there are no such conditions.

But for Lane, his talent for biochemical knowledge is not an ornament.

"Start creating a new mission, Mentos. Assist me in the alchemy experiment"

The witcher stood up from a half-crouched inspection stance and nodded gently to the nervous family of four.

A disease that was ahead of his time did not seem to be a problem in his eyes.

"I probably have an idea."

The biological brain gives its own support in an orderly manner.

"The assignment has been accepted, and I am here for you, sir."

Lan En walked to the window of the second-story building, ready to jump straight down and try elsewhere.

He didn't want to show more 'miracles' in front of these people, such as pulling out a cauldron and medicine bottle from his small pocket.

He used supernatural powers to gain conviction, not worship.

Lan En jumped straight down, startling the guards on guard, but after Lan En waved his hand, they were back to work.

The witcher walked a little farther away, ready to begin his alchemy.

And in his keen hearing, there was a faint murmur behind him.

"He seems to have a good temper."

"Who's for sure? The temper of the demigod and the son of the god is good and bad, and you haven't heard it in the story. One second they are still being entertained at your house, the guests are happy, the next second they will kill you and then take your beautiful wife, and so on. ”

"That's too, but whose child do you say he's in? He can control the flames freely, and I think he should be the child of the god of fire and forging. ”

"Nonsense!" Another guard retorted disdainfully, "Hephaestus's appearance is well known, look at his face!" ”

"Could it be that Aphrodite's bloodline has the upper hand?"

"You might as well say he's a child of Asclepius, curing the plague! There is no other possibility than the god of medicine. ”

"Who said that? Legend has it that children were sent to study with other gods, and he may have studied with Asclepius. ”

The muttering of the two guards continued.

And Lan En pressed his forehead, deeply feeling that he really had the need to come out to alchemy.

People's identity perception is not all determined by themselves, and society's perception of people is recognized.

He was going to leave as soon as he had finished treating the plague in this area, or who knew what the rumors would become?

Ask for recommendations! Ask for a commuter pass! Ask for a subscription!
