At first, he thought it was because of time travel that his memory was incomplete, but now it seems that there may be problems with the memory of his predecessor.

After realizing this possibility, Li Ang said frankly, "Doctor Kent, there is something wrong with my memory. I can only recall some fragments of my life now, and I don't remember why I moved to that village at all."

Dr. Kent easily believed this statement. He didn't seem to be surprised, but showed an expression that really did.

"Little Adele, did you just say that everyone in that village died in the natural disaster, and only this kid survived?"

"Huh? Yes."

Adele was still surprised by Leon's 'amnesia', and after hearing Dr. Kent's question, she replied subconsciously, "Mr. Noyes and I searched the ruins, and he should be the only one who survived."

"A good death, a good death."

Dr. Kent stroked his beard and sighed, "Forget it, it's too late to say this now, follow me up and continue the examination."

Now that the people have come, can we still drive them away?

If he hadn't guessed wrong just now, it would be useless to drive these two away now, it would be better to continue to perform his duties.

After all, he's a doctor now.

"Doctor Kent, can you tell me a little more about that village?"

Li Ang was naturally unwilling to let go of this opportunity. This old man obviously knew a lot of things. If he hadn't lied, then his predecessor was really full of all kinds of conspiracies.

However, Dr. Kent walked up the stairs slowly, and did not stop himself because of Li Ang. He said without looking back, "Sometimes, knowing too much is not a good thing, do you understand?"

His tone was extremely firm, and Li Ang could feel the determination of the other party, as well as a trace of fear of something. It is estimated that even if Li Ang held his neck with a knife, he would not want to reveal more.

What is he afraid of?

Li Ang couldn't think of an answer.

At this time, Doctor Kent's figure had disappeared around the corner of the stairs. After hesitating for a moment, Li Ang stepped forward to catch up.

Dr. Kent went upstairs very fast, and he didn't mean to wait for Li Ang and Adele at all. After Li Ang caught up with him, he found that the other party was standing at the stairs, and it seemed that he was deliberately waiting for Li Ang to come up. .

"You can still move normally even if you can't see with your eyes. Did you use the Perception-type Originium skill?"

Dr. Kent nodded unsurprisingly, and then said, "Although I can't tell you my guess, I can give you two suggestions."

His voice was very soft and fast, as if he was worried that someone was eavesdropping. Only Li Ang, who was close at hand, could barely hear what he just said.

"First, leave the Iberian border as soon as possible, and then never come back here again."

"Second, if anyone sees someone carrying a silver lantern, don't let them discover your existence. If you can escape, try to escape."

After hearing Dr. Kent's ambiguous words, Li Ang gradually realized something.

In other words, is everything that happened to him related to Iberia?

Iberia...

"Wait, wait for me, Dr. Kent! You two are walking too fast!"

At this time, Adele ran to the corner of the stairs out of breath. She was still thinking about what was wrong with that village just now, but she was just dazed, and he was left alone in the clinic.

What Dr. Kent said just now happened to avoid Adele.

"Little Adele, go to the side and rest for a while, I'll give this kid a check."

As he said that, Doctor Kent pulled Li Ang up on the stairs at once. He looked very old, but his hands were not weak at all, but this was also related to Li Ang's lack of resistance.

The second floor looks like an ordinary clinic, and several wards are empty. There are no other patients in the clinic at this time, otherwise Dr. Kent would not have kindly put forward those two 'suggestions' just now.

In addition to the few empty wards, Li Ang also sensed a somewhat crude operating room... It seems unbelievable that this kind of thing appeared in a small clinic, but after thinking about those even more unscientific Originium skills, Li Ang suddenly felt that it was not so strange.

As one of the few doctors in the town, Mr. Kent must have mastered the medical Originium skill first-hand.

Afterwards, the two followed Dr. Kent's instructions, and Adele found a chair and sat beside her for a short rest.

And Li Ang lay on the crude operating table, waiting for Dr. Kent to examine him.

After waiting for a short time, Li Ang felt a somewhat rough hand stretching his eyelids open. Doctor Kent was holding a small flashlight and pointed the flashlight at his eyes.

"this is……"

Li Ang heard Doctor Kent's voice of surprise.

"Doctor Kent, is his condition serious?" Adele also came over to see what was going on.

As soon as she got close to the operating table, she was attracted by the bright red light all her attention.

"It's so beautiful..." Adele murmured.

Under the unglamorous light of the flashlight, Li Ang's eyes were like perfect red gemstones, reflecting the light of the flashlight into a dreamlike red light.

It is very beautiful, but in the eyes of Dr. Kent, this is a very bad signal.

After observing the condition of the red crystal, Doctor Kent opened Li Ang's other eye.

The condition of the eye just now is exactly the same, and Li Ang's two eyeballs have been completely transformed into another unknown substance.

The conclusion is already very obvious, even if it is a student who just entered the medical school, he will not misjudge Li Ang's current situation.

Dr. Kent put down the flashlight, and said flatly, "The eyes have completely crystallized, and it is hopeless."

Witch-King's Diadem: Chapter 12 Blood Crystallization Density

Every infected person will have symptoms of crystallization more or less. It may be a certain organ in the body, or a certain part of the body surface. The first part of Li Ang's body to crystallize is actually him. eyes.

Neither Li Ang nor Adele had noticed this detail before.

Except when he was first rescued, Li Ang kept his eyes closed for the rest of the time, and he didn't feel anything unusual about his eyes during this time, and Adele never opened Li Ang's eyelids for fear of causing secondary damage. The condition of the eyeball.

Now, the results of Dr. Kent's examination have dealt a big blow to the two of them, and the clinic instantly became audible of needles dropping.

"...Is there really no cure for ore disease?"

Dr. Kent sneered and said, "Maybe you can try going to bed early and getting up early every day, drinking more hot water? Regular work and rest, and maintaining good living habits may cure your ore disease."

Li Ang couldn't help but fell silent, he knew that Dr. Kent was mocking him just now.

Go to bed early, get up early, and maintain good living habits can cure ore disease?How is it possible to have such a simple thing?

If the ore disease could be cured so easily, this disease would not have become a terminal illness that plagued the world of Terra for thousands of years.

According to Adele, ore disease cannot be completely cured, and the onset time can only be delayed by various methods, and these methods... are usually expensive, enough for a middle-class family to make ends meet.

If he really wanted to continue with his life in the future, he would have to think carefully about making money.

But there is also good news. Different races have different resistances to ore disease, and their fate after being infected with ore disease is also completely different.

For example, Sarkaz, the resistance of this group to ore disease is pitifully low. It can be said that the whole family is almost all infected, but the body of the Sarkaz family has a strong adaptability to ore disease, even if they do not take any Drugs, crazy use of Originium skills, can also live alive and kicking for decades.

Corresponding to it is the Sakota family, this family is extremely resistant to ore disease, unless high-concentration pollution directly enters the body, it is almost impossible to be infected with ore disease, but again, as long as they are infected with ore Sickness is tantamount to death.

Li Ang is an Argol. This race is relatively rare in the world of Terra. Only a few areas such as Iberia and Dongguo have resistance to ore disease... Is it not bad?It should belong to the group with the most games.

After considering his own words, Dr. Kent said with some regret, "To be honest, your situation... is very rare."

"Most infected people crystallize the organs in the abdominal cavity, and you are the eyes, and you also know that this crystallization will spread. The eyes... are too close to the brain."

Once the crystallization spreads to the surroundings, the first thing to suffer is the brain.

"The symptoms of crystallization spreading to the brain... I'd better mention it for now."

"I haven't really seen such patients. I have seen some cases before. If the ore disease spreads to the brain, those patients will have symptoms of hallucinations or auditory hallucinations. If there is such a tendency, you'd better Be careful."

As he said that, Dr. Kent couldn't help but a little doubt flashed in his heart.

At the beginning, he was not in charge of this part of the patients, and he had only briefly read some cases, but compared with the normal cases, the cases of these patients seemed a bit strange, and the content recorded on them was pitifully small.

It was just briefly mentioned above that when the ore disease spread to the brain, hallucinations would appear, and those patients were also taken over by another department, and no one knew whether they were dead or alive in the end.

It's a little strange to think about it now, but now I met another patient who may develop the same symptoms, which immediately brought back Dr. Kent's long-term memories.

However, that was already a long time ago, and he had left his job for more than ten years. He was living as an ordinary doctor in such a small border town. No matter how curious he was about the situation back then, it was impossible for him to go back. Check it out.

Shaking his head, Dr. Kent put the matter aside.

"But don't worry too much. If you don't mess with your body, the ore disease won't spread so easily."

Seeing that the atmosphere in the consulting room was somewhat dull, Dr. Kent comforted him, "And there are several different indicators for judging the degree of ore disease. I just judged the fusion rate of your somatic cells. Next, we need to test the crystallization density of your blood origin stone." .”

"This indicator is usually more important than the one just now. If the crystallization density of the blood source stone can be controlled at a low level, then the ore disease will not spread easily."

After listening to Dr. Kent's explanation, Li Ang's expression was somewhat better than before.

However, for the next test, he didn't have much hope. He lowered his expectations to the minimum first, so he wouldn't be disappointed by the final result.

And Dr. Kent's so-called blood origin stone crystal density test is essentially the routine blood test that most people often do, but the special circumstances of this world endow this test with another meaning.

Doctor Kent brought a blood collection bag, and after a lot of effort, he pierced Li Ang's skin and drew a tube of bright red blood from it. Afterwards, he threw Li Ang on the operating table and ran to the next room To operate the blood analyzer.

During this period of time, Adele didn't say a word. She knew that she was not very good at comforting others, and talking casually at this time might have the opposite effect.

Both of them sat quietly in their positions, waiting for the test results to come out.

Time passed bit by bit, and the routine blood test took only a few minutes. Not long after, Dr. Kent came back with a strange expression on his face.

"No, is there something wrong with the instrument? But there was nothing wrong with the last test?" Dr. Kent whispered.

"Doctor Kent, what's the result?"

Before Li Ang could speak, Adele, who had been waiting for a long time, ran over first, looking a little more nervous than Li Ang, "The situation... is it bad?"

Regarding the crystallization density of the blood source stone, Adele knows some knowledge about it, and knows that this data is easily affected by external conditions, and Li Ang was just fished out of the natural disaster-contaminated area yesterday, the result of this test... I'm afraid Not too good.

Dr. Kent shook his head and replied, "The result is still uncertain. There may be something wrong with the instrument. The final data is a bit wrong. I'm going to try again."

Before he finished speaking, Dr. Kent took out a blood collection needle from nowhere, and plunged it into Li Ang's arm with a bang.

"..."

After drawing another full tube of blood, Dr. Kent hurriedly returned to the testing room with the blood bag without leaving time for the two to ask questions.

A few minutes later, Dr. Kent came out with a stinky face.

"The test result is 0.007u/L. What a joke, even a newborn baby has a crystal density of at least 0.08u/L. It seems that the broken thing is really broken. I don't know how much it will take to get a new one. How much."

"But it doesn't matter. I still have an earth method that can be used. Although there is no way to measure the specific data, it is still no problem to judge the severity of the disease."

Dr. Kent walked step by step towards the operating table where Li Ang was, and he already had an extra blood collection bag with a much larger capacity than the previous two times.

Li Ang's face darkened suddenly.

isn't it?Again?

The Witch-King's Diadem: Chapter 13 The Witch-King's Legacy

In the end, Li Ang still got a needle in his arm, and he couldn't feel at ease until the final test was completed.

After drawing the blood, Dr. Kent found a small bottle from some corner of the room, and filled it with Li Ang's blood.

The shape of the bottle is a bit special. In addition to the glass body, there are some unknown metal structures at both ends of the bottle. When the cork is closed, the whole bottle looks like a small electrochemical battery.

"Come on, little Adele, help me try if this works. I only know the origin stone skills of healing, and the effect is not very intuitive to use." Dr. Kent said.

However, holding a small glass bottle full of blood, Adele looked a little confused, not quite understanding what Dr. Kent wanted him to do.

"Dr. Kent... what should I do now?"

"Huh? You don't know?"

Seeing Adele in a daze, Dr. Kent looked very surprised, "Isn't this a thing made by your witch king? You, a Leitanian, don't know."

From Dr. Kent's mouth, Li Ang heard a new term.

'The Witch King'.

The meaning of this term may be quite bad, and Li Ang could feel that Adele's mood had obvious ups and downs.

"Doctor Kent... Do you want me to treat this as a surgery unit?" Adele's tone was a bit complicated.

When Dr. Kent asked her to help, she had a bad feeling, but Adele didn't expect that the so-called 'earth method' actually referred to this.

In Letania, it is a felony to study this technology in private, but then again, which Warlock in Letania has not touched the legacy left by the Witch King?

"That's right, using this bottle of blood as a spell casting unit, you can roughly judge the crystallization density based on the energy intensity of the spell," Dr. Kent snapped his fingers, and said, "I don't need to explain the principle to you."

Adele nodded.

The energy in the warlock's body is hidden in the blood, more precisely, in the origin stone crystals contained in the blood, and the properties of the origin stone crystals are not much different from each other.
