Our family is in decline

"What you said makes sense, but you didn't take into account one problem, that is, the current situation seems to take at least two or three months to complete the road leading to the ruins of the old city. During this time, we will not be able to retreat. If you represent the cult, there will be no action, and harassment will continue.

Similarly, blowing up the cave entrance will not solve the problem of pigs. It will only drag the matter down. You must know that there are more than one exits to the sewer. If we do not solve them, we must always beware of pigs' attacks during the Northern Expedition.

You don’t want the pigs to come out from behind and attack the cultists from behind when we go north, right? So I have to take people to clean out these monsters. "

Greendale fell silent after hearing this. She had been preparing to take action before Geralt and the others came back. This decision is not surprising now.

"We don't know anything about these monsters, so I think it's a bit risky to do this. Maybe we can lure the monsters outside to hunt, weaken the monsters first, and then go in. After all, it is their territory."

"Time waits for no one, and the appearance of these pigmen shows that the cult is brewing a bigger conspiracy in the sewers, but we don't know anything about it? We must race against time!"

Lance knew what she was worried about, but he didn't know anything about the beast's cave. He knew that the real danger here was not the pigs, but the disease.

"Of course, I need your help in making some herbs to enhance disease resistance. This cave may not be very clean."

"I understand, when are you going to leave?" Greendale didn't hesitate to decide. Since he had already decided, she just needed to help him deal with it.

"In two days, when those Roma people leave, I will set off." Lance has always been wary of Roma people.

Saying it is one thing, but doing it is another matter. After all, it is necessary to be on guard against others.

After discussing the research on anti-disease drugs with Greendale, the matter was settled.

Lance had previously chosen to withdraw when he discovered the entrance to the den, but why was he so eager to attack the den now?

Because the Roma issue has not been resolved before, they are holding a bomb, so naturally they are not in the mood to open a new dungeon.

Now that they have reached an agreement with the Roma people, this problem has been solved. At the same time, the Ascension Sect has adopted a contraction strategy. It does not have a clear goal before the development progress is advanced, so the only place left with a clear goal is the Beast Cave.

Apart from the fact that the beast's cave is indeed a threat, there is another very important reason: he lacks spirituality.

To the ancestor, it was experimental waste, but to him it was nourishment.

After eating these big fat pigs, Lance has the confidence to push his own strength further, and he also has extra spiritual considerations to [bless] to strengthen a group of soldiers.

This group of personal guards was selected to correspond to those small groups of cult teams that appeared.

You can do special forces, why can't I do it?

Are you going to spend money with me? What qualifications do you have, old man?

…………

Lance decided on the next stage of action, and the old woman finally got out of the meeting.

The situation was not optimistic, and his suggestions did not receive support from other elders.

The reason is very simple. The loss caused by the paralysis of the psychic network is too great, and it even hurts the bones.

There is also the fact that other elders have never really faced Lance, and even think that the price of this transaction will be increased, and ask Lance to compensate for their losses.

Fortunately, the great elder finally called a halt and agreed to the deal.

She used to be one of them, so she didn't feel it, but now she finally feels what it means to be arrogant. How can that ugly face be called an elder?

But what could she say?

She was the one who caused these losses, and her stupidity cost her everything.

Anyway, she quit after this incident was over, and she let go of these things.

But there is one more thing to do now, and that is to implement the order just given by the Presbyterian Council.

Tamara clearly wanted to take her back, but Amanda's handling was a little more subtle.

"Would you like to stay?"

The old woman looked at Amanda sitting opposite, with a somewhat guilty look on her face.

Originally, when he comforted her, he agreed to go back together, but the arrangement for Amanda at the meeting was to let her stay.

As for the reason...

"Is it because of Tamara?" Amanda looked very calm and directly told the unspeakable reason.

Obviously, she also felt that she had been abandoned. The organization chose Tamara, so she, the Omen Seeker who almost killed her and had many contradictions, could not be put together.

Or sacrificing himself to gain Tamara's favor.

These words made the old woman a little embarrassed, and she quickly explained, "It's because our deal with the earl needs someone to communicate. Tamara has been away for too long and doesn't understand this. You are the only one here who has this ability, and you are relatively more familiar with the earl." Familiarity leads to better communication.”

In the past, the old woman would never have explained anything, because the authority of the elders was unquestionable. She would not care what a omen seeker thought, she only needed it to perform its mission.

But now it's acting more ordinary, but also more human.

"I know." Amanda didn't show too many emotions, she just said a light agreement.

With this attitude, the old woman might have felt that Amanda didn't respect her before, but now she also understands that the organization's arrangement is a bit unfair to the child, and then adds the organization's compensation to her.

"The organization has decided that the Roma people in the empire will withdraw from the war zone on a large scale. Naturally, the person in charge will also be transferred back. By then, this position will be yours."

"No, I will stay here to be responsible for the communication between the organization and the lord. My ability is not enough to take on more tasks."

The surprising answer was that Amanda actually refused. You must know that the position of regional director is already a high-level person with real power. Normally, she may not be able to get it if she works hard for another ten years and gradually accumulates merit.

The old woman was afraid that Amanda wouldn't understand, so she continued to add.

"Listen to me first. The main areas to be evacuated are the warring areas. Several prosperous areas in the empire where there is no war will not be affected. Moreover, after the war, the organization will still restore the layout here. After reconstruction, this area will be yours. A solid backing.”

It was obvious what the old woman meant. When the time comes, the empire area rebuilt by her will bear her mark, which will become a further advantage for her after she is transferred back to the headquarters.

This opportunity is very rare. According to her description, the road is paved and you can get to the top wherever you go.

"No, you can find someone else." Amanda was very calm, and she was not moved by this compensation.

It seems that she has jumped several levels in her position, and the regional director is truly powerful, unlike the omen hunter she was before who was working in the field.

But the problem is that no one will know when the war will end. As long as it does not end, the organization will not invest resources in the empire, but it will be dragged here.

And no one can predict the intensity of the war. If it spreads to the entire empire, I am afraid that she will be the only one left here. At this time, having her be the person in charge is more or less a mere commander in name.

What's more, her heart has died and she is no longer willing to work for the organization.

He works hard without complaining, but what about Tamara?

She is a traitor!

But now that the betrayer has been reused, and she has been exiled in disguise, to be honest, no one can stand this change, so it's no wonder that she failed.

The old woman could only sigh when she saw her like this. After a moment of silence, she opened her mouth and revealed some secrets.

“Tamara’s talent has become very important because of our deal with the Count, and it can be said that she will definitely be taken seriously in the future.

At the same time, this talent is also the key to Roma's life and death for us, so it is no surprise that she will definitely surpass you as she grows up.

We know that you don't get along with her, and we asked you to stay here to protect you, and to stay here is to provide you with the opportunity to make friends with the earl. If she is not here, she is destined to be alienated.

The position of regional leader will allow you to gain the earl's attention and your status in his mind will be more important. It will also provide you with an opportunity to accumulate strength.

As long as you handle it properly, it may not be impossible to kill him back when the time comes. "

The old woman knows how to grasp conflicts. If Amanda cares about anything, her only enemy is Tamara.

These words instantly aroused Amanda's resistance, especially when she heard that Tamara had been reused and was likely to surpass herself, her resistance became even stronger.

The memories she suppressed back then were not very good, not to mention that he had to almost kill her, which meant that he had offended her no matter what, and there was no room for maneuver.

Although the path given by the elder is uncertain, it mentions a very important point.

That is, Tamara is where she is today entirely because of the deal between the organization and the lord. In other words, as long as she replaces Tamara's position in the lord's heart, she is not afraid of her.

When it comes to talent, she considers herself to be not much worse than Tamara. Coupled with her status as the regional leader, it’s really hard to say...

"Okay! But I need to get resources." Amanda cheered up. No one could lose to Tamara. This was her last stubbornness.

"I will hand over the matter to you with the original person in charge in the next two days. As long as you can control an area, no one will dare to bully you at will."

If Amanda knew that the real reason for the Roma's evacuation was not the war, but the paralysis of the psychic network, she might not agree so easily.

But I'm afraid the old woman will also have a way to fool her. After all, she is still too young.

…………

"The problem with Geralt's reaction is indeed serious. We must master the ability to remove corpses conveniently and quickly, otherwise this kind of killing will only become nourishment for the evil god in the end."

In the sanatorium, Lance stood in front of the operating table, with Greendale and Paracelsus beside him.

"So regarding this issue, Greendale has developed a potion - zombie spores."

As he spoke, Lance nodded towards Greendale, and she took out a small bottle, which contained some light yellow powder.

I saw her carefully pouring the powder onto the pieces of meat on the petri dish. After just a few breaths, the fresh pieces of meat turned into blood.

"This kind of spore has a very powerful effect on flesh and blood, and can..."

Greendale used this effect to introduce some information about this product to Lance and the others.

It is obvious that this is the castrated version cultivated by Grendel based on the witch's legacy [necrotic fungus], which removes the terrifying self-reproduction ability and limits the degree of flesh and blood dissolution within a controllable range.

Moreover, the triggering conditions are retained, and the effect will only occur after touching blood.

Originally, the idea was to research a weapon that could restrain the Ascension Cult's flesh and blood ritual, but Geralt happened to come back and bring up the team's helplessness in facing the corpse.

This newly developed potion perfectly meets the requirements and can easily dissolve corpses.

In this way, when he is not participating in the operation, there will be a more convenient way to dispose of the body besides burning it.

But that wasn't the end yet. Lance turned to Paracelsus and said, "Try yours."

Paracelsus said nothing and experimented with the material on another petri dish.

Compared to Greendale's slightly rough operation, Paracelsus's operation is more standardized.

Take a small amount of zombie spores and place it on the piece of meat. After the reaction is complete, take out a water-based medicine and drip it accurately with a dropper.

Soon a miraculous scene appeared. The flesh-melting reaction gradually stopped, leaving half of the flesh and blood on the surface.

Paracelsus washed the piece of rotten meat with water and cut it open. It can be seen that the muscle fibers inside are still intact.

"The reaction did stop, but a control experiment still needs to be done."

She made a judgment after inspecting the piece of meat, but it wasn't over yet. Instead, she mixed the remaining potion with the zombie spores and waited for a moment before pouring it onto a new petri dish.

There was nothing strange about the flesh and blood, it didn't melt as quickly as before.

"The experiment was successful. The disease-resistant spore extract has broad resistance to fungi and can be used as an antidote, but I still need to conduct more research."

Lance also watched the experiment from the side and was quite surprised.

[Necrotic fungus] This thing is too scary. At first, Lance saw the scene of it devouring crazily and then spreading in a short period of time. This kind of thing is very dangerous. Although many restrictions have been put in place, if there is no targeted antidote, he It’s hard to just take things out and use them.

And the current experiment shows that there is a solution, which proves that it has practical value.

"By the way, a corpse was sent from the medical camp just now. Maybe we can test it directly. After all, you can't tell anything from a piece of flesh. The structure of the corpse is very complicated."

"Approval." Lance was originally going to promote the use of this medicine, but of course he had to look at the practicality.

The corpses were those of the original pirates, and some of the injured were sent to the medical soldiers for training. As for the dead, it was normal, because this was the real injury situation in this world after being separated from the extraordinary power.

It means infection, it means death, and no one can resist it.
