On the Seven Towers

“Are those human diseases ‘evil forces’?” Kasha asked.

Magna shook her head and said: "No, I said it, that is just the source, much smaller than the evil force I perceive. You know, although we hate diseases, diseases are part of nature, just like people's birth, old age, illness and death. It’s a perfectly normal phenomenon. Therefore, even if this disease is very severe, the evil I can perceive is still very limited. Without the help of elemental perception tools, it would be difficult for me to detect them.”

"What disease is that?" Li Tianrui asked.

Magna said: "A kind of black spot disease. This disease also broke out in the early years. When it breaks out, a person in the town will often die. Black spots will appear on the sick person's body, and then the person will feel weak. , the body's muscles will slowly become necrotic. This disease is very ferocious and usually kills the patient within a week. There is basically no treatment. Even magic cannot cure these people and can only extend their survival for a day or two.

In the small village we went to, there were only a few dying people left, and their entire village would soon be extinct. "

"A week? Will those people see black water oozing from their bodies?" Li Tianrui asked.

"Black water? The original black spot disease does not have such symptoms. When you ask about this, have you encountered something?" An Lin asked.

"Please follow me." Li Tianrui led the two elves to the place where the body of Baron Bocas was burned. Along the way, I told them about what happened this morning.

Magna said in front of the pile of ashes: "This is the feeling! The powerful evil force has not completely dissipated."

"I must purify immediately." Magna released a light ball without waiting for Li Tianrui's consent. The light ball floated above the ashes of the corpse and became extremely dazzling. The light lasted for about five minutes before slowly dissipating. All. Magna said, "Sorry, I have to take action in time. You don't have a shield. If this evil force is not dispelled immediately, it is likely to cause harm to you."

Li Tianrui just felt that the light was not lethal to people, so he waited quietly for the spell to end. He said, "It's okay. Can you explain what's going on?"

An Lin said: "It seems that my guess is correct."

"What guess?" Li Tianrui asked.

"We have speculated before that some alchemists used black spot disease to create a man-made disease. They transformed the disease with magic and used magic to demonize the disease!" Seeing that everyone didn't understand, An Lin explained: "I don't know if you know it, but most diseases are caused by small creatures that are invisible to the naked eye."

"I know, these little things are called bacteria in our place." Li Tianrui said.

"Very good, then you should understand what I am talking about." An Lin explained, "You must have heard of some experiments. Some alchemists can use potions to demonize ordinary beasts into magical beasts, right?

Now there is an alchemist who did something similar. He turned the little creature that caused melasma into a monster with magical powers. "

Bacteria Monster? Li Tianrui never thought that such a thing would happen, and An Lin's words exceeded the limit of his imagination.

"According to what you said before, I guess this little monster should have several new characteristics. It is much more lethal to people. It only takes a shorter time to kill a person, and it can turn corpses into corpses. I believe that this kind of black water is not a good thing. It may even be a way to spread them. After you burn his body, Magna still has such a strong feeling, which shows that these little monsters are there. Their survivability has also become much stronger. I even think it is possible that the burning did not completely kill them, and some of them might have dispersed with the smoke." An Lin frowned at this.

Li Tianrui's face turned livid: "How did black spot disease originally spread?"

"Are you talking about how to make a new person sick?" Magna thought for a while and said, "I don't know, but according to the records I have read, someone once visited a sick village at the door. It didn't take long for him to Sick too."

"Damn it! It could be transmitted through the air." Li Tianrui looked up at the sky. There was some wind today, and the smoke from the burning corpses was blown out of the yard. It should have covered a large area of ​​the city.

Magna sighed and said: "We activated the formation outside the elven community, and also wore a shield to isolate the toxins, just to avoid this happening. But in the human city..."

Li Tianrui took a few steps back and forth and asked, "How can we disinfect this place?"

Magna said: "The way you deal with the room is correct, but the key is that it needs to be washed with positive energy. Simply burning it with fire will not solve the problem."

Li Tianrui said to the two elves: "I have a few things to ask for your help now."

Magna said: "Tell me, this is a big deal. Demonic disease is a terrible thing. If it is not handled well, it is possible that the population on the continent will be halved. We will try our best to provide help."

Li Tianrui said: "First of all, please teach us the magic of isolating toxin shields. We don't know whether we are infected with this disease, but I think this isolation is two-way, right? Even if I get sick, it can also prevent Is the disease in my body spreading?"

"Okay." Magna agreed simply, "This magic is not difficult, as long as you are at a low level, you can use it."

Li Tianrui said to Kasa: "Call all our current mages and magic apprentices. Everyone should learn this magic, as many as they can."

After Kasa took the order and left, Li Tianrui said: "The second thing, after we find out the basic situation of the matter, I hope you can send two elves to Arano Town and Alvita Town to deliver two letters for me. I want to tell my companions about these things. By the way, your two fellow tribesmen, Maya and Dining, are also visiting Arano Town.

I have to prevent this disease from spreading from this city, and I also hope to cure this disease, so, I need troops and experts.

I can't guarantee that my troops can remain calm and under my control after learning that I am sick. I can't be sure that if I send someone out, he will carry the germs and spread the disease to other places. "

"That's no problem." An Lin said, "I will arrange a few elf rangers to deliver the letter for you."

"The last thing, I hope you can help me find a few other "evil forces" in the city. I guess it should be a corpse like Bocas. I think the person who made this plan will not arrange only one source of infection!"
