On the Seven Towers

To Li Tianrui's surprise, the steward Neymar called for a maid, an attendant and three personal guards from Astra. After questioning, he didn't know whether it was out of loyalty or distrust of the Chinese. People were willing to go to the quarantine camp later, and all said they wanted to stay and take care of the family head. In this case, Li Tianrui left the house after giving instructions on how to use masks and some hygiene matters, and promising to send someone over for treatment later.

They checked all the surrounding households and found that more than half of the houses were empty. In the remaining houses, more than ten people had begun to fall ill. Most of the symptoms started last night.

"According to what we say, the incubation period of this disease is very short, only about a day. I think there will be an outbreak period soon." Li Tianrui said.

Magna said: "It seems that the symptoms of getting sick through bacteria in the air are milder, but we don't know how many days the sick patients can last."

Li Tianrui said: "In two days, we will know whether I am sick or not. I hope we don't take it too seriously."

Li Tianrui summoned a platoon from the nearby Third Battalion of the Guards and asked them to cordon off the block and then search for the next source of infection.

The third source of infection was in the library. Except for the two administrators who were guarding the library who began to fall ill, no one else was affected for the time being.

The fourth source of infection was under a stall in the market area. However, due to the tense situation in the past two days, many stalls were not open and few people were seen in the market. So the impact is not huge.

Just when Li Tianrui breathed a sigh of relief, the fifth source of infection gave him a blow. The body was in an abandoned house in the slum area. Because the environment in the slum area was very poor, it was full of all kinds of odors, and people often died because of it. He died of various reasons, and no one noticed the body until it turned black and smelled bad. The houses in the slums were particularly crowded. Near this place, Li Tianrui actually found nearly forty people who had become ill. Among these people are elderly people with limited mobility and children who are waiting for food. Moreover, they are crowded into the same area with more than a hundred other related people.

"According to previous experience, it has been difficult for us to prevent the outbreak of the plague." Magna said after seeing this scene.

"All these people must be isolated immediately." Li Tianrui transferred a company from the third battalion and all the mages who had learned the toxin isolation shield.

The third regiment has three direct mage classes from the first, second and third battalions, a dozen magic consultants and magic officers at all levels, and more than twenty dark elf magicians from the fifth battalion, a total of more than seventy magicians. For people with low-level magic skills, this is an incredible figure for any other army on the road, but it is only slightly above the average among the guards. This does not include those among ordinary soldiers. Many magic apprentices.

The toxin shield is not a magic with a very complicated structure. Intermediate mages like Li Tianrui and Kaisha have experienced so many systematic trainings on magic structures, and it took them less than half an hour to basically learn this magic. Kasha taught the others, and those mages returned to the Duke's Mansion one after another, and each spent time learning this magic. Now more than thirty people have learned this magic.

Li Tianrui asked these mages to attach shields to the soldiers responsible for isolation. Mareno, the commander of the third battalion, made arrangements: "I just asked you to guard the area where the second company and platoon are on duty. There are vacant noble houses. Send these people there to be unified and resettled. They will be managed together with the sick nobles and businessmen. From then on. That area will be our temporary quarantine area from now on.”

Mareno took the order and left, but after a while he came back and reported: "Captain, these people are not cooperating. We just rushed in. They thought we were here to rob. Some even thought we were slave traders. What can we say?" They also refused to leave with us. We said everything we needed to explain, but some people knelt down and begged us to let them go."

"You said they were sick, are we giving them free treatment?" Li Tianrui asked.

Mareno said: "Of course. I explained the current situation to them in the most popular terms. But to be honest, it is normal for them not to believe in this kind of good thing. If it was two years ago, I would not believe that there was a lord who took care of me when I was sick. , would suddenly come to me and tell me that he wanted to give me a house to live in and also provide me with medical treatment.

I will definitely think this is a conspiracy. Either the lord wants to clean me up secretly, or he wants to sell me as a slave. "

Li Tianrui said with a dark face: "Now is not the time to waste time. You must finish this matter within half an hour. Spend what money should be spent and exert effort where it is necessary. Use whatever means you have, if you have something to do I'll carry it for you."

"That's not impossible... Captain, then I will use a simple and crude method?" Mareno was waiting for Li Tianrui's words.

"You use your own discretion."

"Okay." Mareno greeted: "From the mage class, come with me."

He called the mage class below his camp, arranged a formation for joint spell casting, targeted a position in the middle of several rooms, and ordered: "Aim at the house with black walls, and jointly cast spells - sleep spell."

With the burst of magical light, three sleep spells caused all the patients and their families in those rooms to fall asleep.

Marrero gave the order again: "Come up to the Second Company, remove the door panels, use them as stretchers, and carry all the people away."

This time they did not encounter any resistance or nonsense, and the soldiers began to carry people in groups of two.

Facing the trembling slum residents around him, Mareno pointed to one of the middle-aged men with a calm look and a young man who was looking around, and said: "You two go with my people to be witnesses, and come back to tell everyone where I moved these people to and what kind of treatment I gave them."

He waved his hand and two mages came up, put on the two people's shields to isolate toxins without saying anything, and then forcibly dragged them away.

After half an hour, the two returned to the slums. Unlike when they went there, they seemed much more stable when they came back, and others surrounded them and asked questions.

"This lord did not lie to us, they really sent those guys to see a doctor." The middle-aged man took the military rations that Mareno gave him and said to the people around him.

"Yes, they really lived in those big houses that only nobles can live in. Those places that we can't enter in our lifetime, I want to get sick when I see them." The young man followed.

In this way, it took less than an hour for Mareno to clear out all the people in the area without causing panic among others, which made Li Tianrui look at him with admiration.
