Goddess Wanhua Mirror

Because the sudden holy light was too dazzling, the sneak attack of the infected people failed. Some blocked the light with their hands, and some simply dropped their weapons and ran away.Just as Lu De was about to explain that he came to save people with no malice, he saw a group of people rushing up not far away, and they were all stunned when they met each other.

"These people are actually wearing masks!?"

From arriving at Oyster Harbor to the present, this is the second group of people Lude has seen who know to wear masks, and the other group is the members of the Ares Cult brought by Ural.

The mask wearers in these isolation areas were shocked when they saw the outfits of Lude and others, and they were even more tightly packed than themselves. So the leading man first looked at Lude and his party, and then tentatively asked Lude .

"Excuse me... are you sent by the Ural Bishop of the God of War Sect?"

"No, we are members of the God of Medicine Sect. We came from Pine Tree Town. Judging by your outfit, you should be a doctor in the quarantine area, right? May I ask your name?"

"My name is Nanding, and I'm a pharmacist."

The pharmacist who called himself Nan Ding took off his mask to reveal a middle-aged uncle face full of vicissitudes, and then quickly put the mask back on.

Seeing that this person was quite defensive, Lu De couldn't help but nodded, then introduced himself, and said that he had brought a 500-member volunteer medical team and a large amount of supplies, and had obtained the consent of the lord, and was going to carry out nearly two weeks of quarantine in the quarantine area. Thousands of infected people started treatment.

But after Nan Ding and others learned about it, they did not show any joy as Lu De expected, but the worry between their brows became deeper.

"Master, thank you for your mercy, but there are nearly [-] infected people in the isolation area, and new patients are being sent in every day. Unless you can bring a hundred priests, or invite the goddess of your religion to come in person In the world, otherwise we would not be able to save so many of our patients. How about this! Please use magic to heal the children in the isolation area, and then take them out of here, we will be grateful!"

"You are serious, Dr. Nanding! I know that so many patients cannot be saved by magic alone, so I never planned to rely on magic from the beginning. I believe in Evelina, the god of medicine, and our priests are gods. Servants are also healers. Healing the sick and saving lives is the bounden duty bestowed upon us by the goddess, and it is also a trial. I may not be able to promise you that everyone will be cured, but I can swear to the goddess I believe in that I will do my best to treat every patient! So Dr. Nanding, I'm with you, so tell me about the situation in the quarantine area first."

Looking at Lu De who expressed his attitude, Nan Ding and the rest of the doctors present were silent for a moment, and then bowed solemnly to Lu De and the others together.

"Please come with me, master. I will take you to the infirmary."

Following Nan Ding and others, Lu De and his party quickly came to a two-story wooden building. From the wine glass pattern on the signboard, it was not difficult to see that this place was originally a tavern, but now it is the only hospital in the quarantine area. .

Nan Ding told Lu De while walking that there are nearly [-] living people in the entire isolation area, but due to the lack of medical treatment and food supply, hundreds of people die of illness every day.If it weren't for the batches of new patients being sent in every day outside, the here might have died a long time ago.

In addition, it confirmed the old saying that where there are people, there are rivers and lakes, even for patients who are dying. There are several forces in the quarantine area, fighting for limited supplies, and they don't deal with each other very much.

Nan Ding’s group of doctors is considered to be a faction, with about 400 people. The other two relatively large forces are the "Fat Snake" Abadong who is entrenched in the warehouse on the north side of the East Street, and the "Thin Monkey" who lives in the West District brothel. Dillis, these two are well-known gangsters in Oyster Harbor, and they are still the bosses in the quarantine area. They compete for limited supplies and often bully men and women. The patients hate these villains, but they are sick because of weakness Nothing to do with them.

Lu De was suddenly puzzled when he heard this.It stands to reason that the isolation area is full of patients who are dying. How did these two evil forces form?As a result, Lu De was surprised by the answer he got.

These two gangsters were indeed infected before they came in, and they were dying like other patients, but the fatality rate of this plague is not 100%, and some people have special constitutions, so these two scumbags survived , confirms what is meant by "the scourge of the millennium"!

It's just that the lord has an order that the entire isolation area is not allowed to enter and not to leave. Just in case, as long as you enter this ghost place, even if you recover, you are not allowed to go out, so these two gangsters gathered together as soon as they recovered from their illness. A group of recoveries who also healed themselves formed gangs in the quarantine area.

It is worth mentioning that the nine doctors headed by Nan Ding in the isolation area are also self-healers.The entire Oyster Harbor had hundreds of physicians before the outbreak, as well as its own regional association, and now they are the only ones left.

End of this chapter

When he learned that self-healing people had appeared in the quarantine area, and that all of them had developed antibodies, Lude suddenly felt that the wave was stable!

Based on the currently known information about the virus, the intensity of this plague has not yet reached the level of the "Black Death". The current fatality rate is about [-]% to [-]%. It may be lower than [-]%.

The premise is that the entire city can have the cohesion of one mind and the ability to execute all orders from top to bottom.

However, if Oyster Harbor really had these things at the beginning, it would not have allowed the epidemic to spread to the current field.

Therefore, Lude plans to take down the quarantine area first, prove his ability with irrefutable performance, and then convince the lord to promote his own epidemic prevention measures throughout the city, and finally defeat the plague.

But Lu De also knew that the other sects in the city would definitely not sit back and watch him stand out from the crowd to highlight their incompetence.Regarding this group of magic sticks, Lude has always tried to figure out their lower limit with the greatest malice. Even if it is Ural, who has an ally relationship, Lude has always been on guard against him.

certainly!Lu De also didn't intend to really criticize in public, he started to spread hatred crazily and became an enemy of all sects.These guys are not all of one mind. I can completely win over them and unite those forces that can be united.

That night, Lu De and his party did not leave the quarantine area, but set up marching tents and set up camp on the spot.Lula talked with Nanding for a long time, stayed up late to write a detailed and careful epidemic prevention plan, and then sent someone to notify the volunteer captain Charlotte, Ural and the housekeeper Mabo respectively.

So early the next morning, the dwarven volunteers who stayed at the dock began to unload the goods, pulling the supplies they brought into the quarantine area one after another.

Interestingly, there was a little "episode" during this period.

The convoy transporting supplies was stopped by local people on the way. These people did not know where they heard the news that the supplies on these vehicles would be sent to the quarantine area, which made these people very dissatisfied.

These passionate people are basically "healthy people" who have not been infected and have no relatives in the quarantine area.In their view, those patients in the quarantine area are hopeless, and it is better to save themselves than to waste these precious materials on those who are dying.

So under the instigation of some "careful people", these people rushed to the streets one after another, trying to intercept the convoy and loot the supplies on the street.

Fortunately, Lude had expected such an incident long ago, so he notified Ural and the housekeeper Mabo in advance, so the soldiers of the Lord's Guard and several Priests of the God of War Sect rushed to the scene in time to disperse the mob.

Regarding this matter, Lu De did not express his position to the outside world. He had already vaguely guessed who was behind the scenes, but right now was not the time to rush to fight with others.

On the side of the isolation area, as a large number of motorcades entered the East Street in an endless stream, this naturally attracted the attention of the patients, among them were the subordinates of Fat Snake and Thin Monkey.These gangsters have been squatting in the building near the entrance, staring at the supplies brought in every morning.

Before that, there were nearly [-] patients in a huge isolation area, and they could only get a small amount of symbolic food supply every day. The guards outside the wall used huge rattan baskets to send them into the wall along the pre-set zipline.Although there are not many things, as long as they can be distributed evenly, in theory, people will not starve to death.

But not everyone is willing to share weal and woe, the Fat Snake and Thin Monkey gangs, the main daily activity is to compete for these limited supplies.Thanks to their evil deeds, the situation of patients in the quarantine area deteriorated further.

However, the situation this time was obviously different, far exceeding the expectations of these punks.Since early in the morning, there have been continuous convoys entering the isolation area. The cars are full of boxes and boxes. Guys with sharp eyes can see the food at a glance. It is not the kind of rotten food that is about to rot or has already rotted. Stinky fish, but fresh, real food for people to eat!

Seeing that there was something to eat in the car, the stalking punks suddenly became very excited.Even though they are all gang members, just being with the boss does not mean that they must have enough to eat, they are still hungry, which means that they are slightly better than those ordinary patients who are bullied.

Driven by hunger, some people only saw the food in the car, and they didn't notice who was escorting the car. The dwarf guard fell to the ground with just one punch, and passed out directly.

Soon, the news about a large number of supply trucks entering the isolation area reached the ears of the gang boss "Fat Snake" Abadong through the escaped younger brother, which made this isolation area bully who "swept the ICU with an iron fist" shine brightly.

According to the report of his younger brother, the supplies brought in were at least thirty or forty carts, and most of the guards were strong and strong dwarves, but this did not deter Abadong. He has been a pickpocket for several years, and he always thinks that he is a person who relies on his brain to make a living, so he is going to "outsmart".

Robbery is not easy, so can't we steal it?

With a "good idea" made up in his heart, Abadong just waited for the dark, but within 5 minutes of his idea, the earthen wall in front of him broke open with a "bang" without warning. The big hole, followed by a group of dwarves armed to the teeth, carrying their iconic warhammers, filed in, and the leader roared at the top of his voice.

"Which son of a bitch is called Abadong? Come out!"

"..." xN

Without even a symbolic resistance, as soon as the dwarf warriors rushed in, Abadong and his men immediately responded with a perfect French military salute, for fear that if he moved slowly, he would be caught by these brutal The dwarf beat the man and the egg into the ground together.

Under the orders of the dwarf warriors, including Abadong, a total of 43 people squatted obediently in the yard.First, after a simple investigation to confirm his identity, he was tied up with hemp rope and taken away under escort.

Interestingly, on the way to be escorted, Abadong unexpectedly ran into his deadly enemy, "Skinny Monkey" Dilis.

Unlike Abadong, who was not injured, Dilis had obviously been beaten hard and fat, most of his face was blooming, and he was also tied by hemp rope, like a group of lambs about to be led to the slaughterhouse .

Seeing this, Abadong secretly thanked himself for being "sensible". At the same time, he couldn't help but wonder, what kind of gods and demons came to this quarantine area? It's over.

Looking at the dwarf warriors escorting him, Abadong couldn't help thinking of the Golden Ax Chamber of Commerce in Oyster Harbor.But he clearly remembered that the group of dwarves had collectively moved to the Golden Ax Manor in the south of the city before he fell ill and was thrown into the quarantine area.

With all kinds of doubts, Abadong and Dilis were quickly led to the gate of a camp under construction.The leaders of the two gangs looked at each other silently. They all knew this place. This was Nanding's territory. In a sense, it was the third force in the quarantine area.

But unlike the duo who bully men and women, this group of doctors who are cursed as incompetent is the only "lawful camp" in this abandoned land. Proactively provoke them.

But at this time, the place has completely changed. A large number of dwarves are busy building a camp. They have a clear division of labor. Some are building tents, some are cleaning the streets, and some are carrying silver-white metal buckets. A metal pole, holding a nozzle in the right hand, is spraying a light blue water mist that emits a faint fragrance.

At this time, Abadong saw a guy in white not far away who was directing the work of the dwarves, and he should be a human being.The dwarf warrior in charge of escort led them to this man, and said very respectfully.

"Master, I have captured everyone you want."

"You've done a good job. Let's go and rest for a while. The security maintenance of the entire isolation area will depend on you."

"Three Gods above, it is my honor to be efficient for you."

Realizing that the person in front of him should be a big man, Abadong knelt down without saying hello.Seeing the other party looking at him, he tried his best to squeeze a flattering smile on his face.In comparison, the thin monkey next to him had much more backbone, and he still stood like a stick, but the price of his backbone was that he received another ordinary punch from a dwarf, and curled up like a shrimp.

Fortunately, the big man stopped the dwarf in time, so that the thin monkey was not beaten to death, and the words of the other party gave Abadong a sense of hope.

"Okay! This guy is still useful, don't kill him."

"My lord, my lord! I know I was wrong. Your lord has a lot, and the little one is willing to do your best for you!"

Abadong is familiar with the rules of survival at the bottom of society. If he wants to survive, he must make himself useful, because useless people usually don't live long.

And it seemed that his own statement aroused the interest of the big man in front of him, and the other party turned his head and looked at him with great interest.Although the other party had a white "mask" on his face, he could still vaguely see that he was smiling.

"Looking at your size, you are the fat snake Abadong?"

"Yes, it is the villain."

"How did you recover from the disease? How long did it take? Did you eat anything special during the period? If you want to survive, do it honestly."

"me……"

Facing a series of inquiries, Abadong was a little confused, because he himself didn't know how good he was.But he was keenly aware that the reason why the big man in front of him sent someone to capture him alive should be related to his recovery, and he was thinking about how to use this to win a way out for himself, when he heard the big man continue to say.

"Forget it, don't rush to ask this question, you should sign the contract first."

"Ah! Contract? What contract?"

The dazed Abadong looked up, the big man waved his hand, and a woman walked by and put a papyrus full of words in front of him.

End of this chapter

Looking at the paper in front of him, Abadong showed embarrassment.

Lude saw that he should be illiterate, so he asked Aina to read the contents of the contract to the gangsters present.

Only then did Abadong and Dilis realize that what the big man in front of them asked them to sign was not a contract of selling their lives, but a contract that was even more excessive than that.

The full name of this contract is "Medical Experiment Volunteer Agreement", the signer is called Party B, and the experimenter is called Party A.

Party B who signed the contract will "voluntarily" cooperate with Party A in all medical-related human experiments, obey any instructions of Party A unconditionally, and bear all the risks that may arise in medical experiments. If Party B refuses to cooperate during the experiment, Party A will have The right to enforce Party B to perform in accordance with this agreement.At the end of the agreement, it is also emphasized that the final interpretation of this agreement belongs to Party A.

No matter how uneducated the gangsters are, they can hear something wrong now. They are all scared to death, but they are surrounded by a group of vicious dwarf soldiers. I dare not even move a finger.

In the end, Abadong was the first to set an example. He had already seen it from the eyes of the dwarves around him. If he signed this contract, he might die, but if he didn't sign it, he would die immediately!

This coward has no backbone, so he obediently pressed his fingerprints on the agreement.And with him taking the lead, the other horses also compromised one after another, even a disgruntled thin monkey Dilis pressed.

Looking at these dejected villains, the corners of Lu De's mouth under the mask turned up slightly, revealing a disdainful smile.

Sure enough, the old saying is good, the wicked will be tortured by the wicked, although he didn't really intend to use them to do any harmful human experiments, but this did not prevent him from making such a "prostitution contract" to scare these scumbags .

So this contract can be said to be tailor-made for them. After all, such an unequal "blessing agreement" would not be forced by good people to sign under normal circumstances!

"There's no need to be so scared. Not all experiments are fatal. After all, this old man is not a demon. When the matter is over, I will perform a minor operation for you, and you can all debut together as idols."

Not knowing what an "idol" is at all, Abadong and others with a blank face were forcibly dragged away by dwarf soldiers. What awaits them is a "forced purification" that is no less rude than killing a pig and shedding its hair, as well as independence. small black house.

Lu De was not in a hurry to experiment with them. Everything in the entire quarantine area was still in its infancy, and there were a lot of more important things that he needed to deal with urgently.

According to the plan formulated by Lude, three hundred dwarf volunteers and all medical students entered the isolation area.Relying on the lure of arresting the wicked Li Wei and distributing the ultimate food for free, Lu De quickly gathered all the living patients in the entire isolation area, registered and classified them.

There are a total of 1877 infected people in the entire isolation area. According to the degree of symptoms, they are divided into five categories: mild, severe, critical, observation (cured), and special. They are placed in different isolated areas for targeted treatment.

Patients with mild symptoms and self-healers will first be required to do purification. The dwarves have taken local materials and transformed several suitable houses into bathrooms.Lude didn't bother to explain to these patients why they needed to take a bath, but told them that if they didn't wash themselves, they wouldn't be able to get the tonkotsu and potato soup that was boiling in the cauldron.

Facing the temptation of food, no one chooses to refuse.

The critically ill patients with more serious conditions can receive Lude's priority treatment to save their dying lives.

There are more than 200 critically ill patients, who are placed in medical tents on both sides of the street. It is early spring, and Oyster Harbor is located on the northern coast. The local temperature is still relatively cold, and it will drop below freezing at night.But these tents are made of dwarves' special camp tents, double-layered rock wool felt, which has a top-notch thermal insulation effect, and is actually warmer than those dilapidated houses with air leakage on all sides.

When Lu De came to the ward, his medical students were diagnosing these critically ill patients based on what they had learned.

"Teacher, you are here!"

"How are the patients doing?"

"The most serious patients are concentrated in wards one to four. Most of them are unconscious, and because of long-term malnutrition, their bodies are generally weak. If they are not rescued in time, there is a high probability that they will not last until dark."

"Well, I understand the situation, leave it to me!"

Patting his student on the shoulder, Lu De looked around. Ward No. [-] was full of [-] critically ill patients, most of whom were poor people with shriveled faces. The breathing is almost like that of a mummy.

For a living person to become so thin to such a terrifying degree, it is obviously not something that can be achieved by simply starving for a few days. It is believed that they have maintained a sub-healthy state for a long time before being infected.

"Goddess! These suffering people need your mercy."

After praying in a low voice, Lude began to perform magic on the spot.But he didn't choose the purification technique that could instantly cure the disease, but used a group boost to increase the vitality of these patients.The whole process lasted about 10 minutes. The patients did not recover immediately, but their complexions improved a lot, and the originally dry skin also had a slight healthy glow.

Nan Ding, who was standing on the sidelines watching Lu De's rescue, couldn't help nodding in secret praise. He thought it was impossible for Lu De to save all the seriously ill patients.After all, magic spells are limited by the number of times. Ordinary priests use it two or three times a day. Even if Lude grabs it again, it is impossible to use more than 100 in a row.

However, Lude's approach is to change the way of thinking. Instead of a purification technique that can only save one person at a time with immediate results, he uses a group buff magic technique that has a weak single effect but can be used on multiple people at the same time. Symptoms were alleviated in a full twenty patients.

But at this time, Nan Ding didn't know that Lu De was actually capable of treating hundreds of people in a row, but if he did so, it was too shocking, and second, he hoped that patients could rely on their own immune system to defeat the virus.

Because there is a fatal flaw in healing with divine magic, that is, the cured person will not produce antibodies like the self-healing person, and it is very likely that as soon as he is cured, the person who turns his head will be infected again.

A similar situation has happened more than once in Oyster Harbor. Some rich people with weak awareness of prevention have been infected again and again. Relying on their own money, they can always afford priests to treat their illnesses. As a result, The already stretched divine resources were further wasted.

So what Lude has to do is not to use magic to eliminate the viruses raging in the infected person's body, but to use magic as an aid to assist the patient's own immune system to defeat the disease!
