I really only stop

"Thanks to Miss Yuxia's help, the few patients found so far have improved significantly. According to the description of the first cured person after waking up, the symptoms of this epidemic seem to be a little... [strange]?"

With strange eyes, he repeatedly confirmed the report in his hand several times, and finally Yin Jian read out the above content truthfully:

"The only symptom found so far is coma. According to the recovered person, after falling into a coma, a perfect woman in his ideal appeared in front of his eyes. And he himself did not feel any strangeness or resistance to this woman , just so naturally, they fell in love and ... had a great time."

Although Vice President Silver Blade's description was as sound as possible, the eyes of most of the male adventurers present became a little weird.

Do you have astringent dreams after getting sick?What kind of plague is this, just the delusion of the cured guy?

"Unfortunately, according to our investigation, all the recovered patients had similar dreams after waking up. According to the opinion of the Holy See, it is still treated as one of the symptoms."

Answering the doubts of the adventurers first, Silver Blade continued to read:

"Besides, after recovering, the patient showed characteristics such as [depressed] and [spiritual depression] at the same time, and some radicals tried to re-infect this plague, which even affected normal conversations and conversations—— It is based on this that the Sanhedrin and the Holy See announced this as an official epidemic."

"But what does that have to do with our gathering here today?"

Probably still thinking about the ladies and sisters of the Ministry of Apology, Cupid raised his hand and asked:

"The handling of the plague has always been the job of the Holy See. Is it to limit the missions of adventurers?"

"No, it's not a restriction, but a collective task for all adventurers above C-level—"

Finally getting to the point, Vice President Silver Blade put down the report in his hand, and glanced at the adventurers in front of him one by one:

"Mission objective: [Find the source of the plague], if the opponent is an individual or a certain force, on the premise of ensuring personal safety and intelligence security first, it is allowed to use all means to crusade."

"[Mission Level: A+]."

PS: (→)

Chapter 293 System: Finally opened!

"A+ grade mission?"

After Silver Blade announced the mission level, there was a small discussion in the originally quiet conference room.

Generally speaking, the division of mission levels is somewhat similar to that of adventurers. C-level tasks are the mainstream, B-level tasks are more advanced, and A-level tasks are completely rare.

As for the S rank, it can only be promulgated after being approved by both the guild and the empire in events related to the ancient legend rank.The Black Sun, which once brought turmoil and unrest to the region, falls into this category of events.

In addition, even the [Osiris Advent] situation can only be rated as A+ level due to the lack of danger. The plague in front of us is positioned at the same level, which is enough to prove that the guild attaches great importance to this incident. .

but……

"【If the source of the plague is related to individuals or forces, you can use any method to attack】—is this sentence also the judgment of the guild?"

After thinking for a while, Broca asked Silver Blade:

"Will add such an explanation in the mission, does it mean that the guild has judged that the essence of this plague is [man-made]?"

"It can only be said that the Holy See does not rule out such a possibility."

Shaking his head heavily, Silver Blade replied:

"The emergence of this epidemic was too sudden, and the symptoms were unprecedented for us - most importantly, through investigation, there was no obvious connection between the several cured patients. Therefore, someone deliberately Because the possibility of spreading the plague in the city is very high."

This is a very reasonable inference.If the infected knew each other and were even in the same team, the Holy See might still think that this new plague was brought back by them when they explored in an unknown maze.However, the fact that there are few connections has to make the Holy See think about the human factor.

"To sum up, the enemy may be a profession such as a plague warlock or a necromancer. Most of the people present have no experience of confronting this kind of profession head-on, so we must be careful-during my adventurer period, I used to I worked with my teammates to defeat a plague warlock who tried to disrupt the order of the empire, and almost paid a heavy price for it.”

Fallon, who had listened to Silver Blade's report silently in the audience, spoke lightly, but anyone could hear the warning in his unwavering tone:

"If you see a guy like this around you, don't act rashly. The key is to protect yourself first--do you hear clearly?"

"Yes! Listen clearly!"

--------------

"—I received such a mission for no reason. I actually became a C-rank adventurer just before this incident. I really don't know what happened to my luck."

While carefully taking out his pocket, Lu Xi winked at Cupid beside him:

"However, you won't be able to go to the Ministry of Apology, right? Leaving aside the question of whether the door will be opened or not, if a certain pink fur is still thinking about dirty things in such a critical moment, Uncle Faron will definitely use the big sword handle Your head was knocked off."

"Don't mention it, it's rare that I have saved so much money..."

After being dejected for a while, the unique optimism of pink hair made him recover quickly:

"However, as long as I complete this task, there will be two [A+] grades on my resume - it's not a loss if you think about it~"

"In the face of possible plague warlocks, it is better to act in a team."

Broca, who has been hunting in the forest for a long time, knows the need to be cautious. Since even a powerful adventurer like Faron has given advice, he naturally has no intention of not listening to the advice:

"...However, I have been traveling alone. In this case, it seems difficult to find a suitable teammate."

"Brother, will you come with our team?"

Without the slightest hesitation, Cupid extended an invitation to Broca:

"Although the remaining three people in our team are C-level adventurers, they are all good guys. I think you will be very welcome to join us."

"In that case, thank you in advance."

Nodding to the pink-haired knight, Broca glanced sideways, and suddenly saw Lu Xi's strange movements:

"...Lu Xi, what is the light blue equipment you are wearing?"

"A mask."

While nimbly bringing a mask to his face, Lu Xi replied:

"It's a good thing to prevent epidemics. Almost everyone in my hometown has one. It's cheap and effective."

Of course, it is impossible for Lu Xi, who came across naked, to hide a mask all the time. In fact, he just exchanged this thing with the system——

[Please allow the system to make a moving expression. The system store, which has been neglected for a long time, finally opened for the first time since time travel. 】

'It's annoying, I call it saving, okay? '

Gazing at the system light screen that jumped out and dangling, Lu Xi said in his heart:

"Your host, I belong to the type that has been saving up gold coins to buy the best equipment in the game. I haven't encountered any difficulties since I came to this world. Why don't you save points for emergencies." '

[Doubt, this is not in line with common sense.According to the general development process, the host should be very weak after crossing, and gradually grow up through repeated exchanges.According to probability statistics, the rate of hosts who can become talented in a different world without relying on the system is less than one percent, and the system thinks there is a problem with the host. 】

'You have the problem.What is the statistical sample?If nothing else, it's your pile of ancient online novels again, right? '

Ruthlessly exposed the strange hobby of the system, Lu Xi shrugged his shoulders easily:

'This is thanks to the fact that the ability I obtained during the time travel is very powerful, otherwise I might still be dominated by various tasks, points, and other clichéd things-isn't this a social animal that works for the system? '

[However, the naive and weak host who thinks so does not realize that he is now working for this world in order to survive.In other words, he will never escape the fate of a social animal—]

Throwing the system light screen with a very small font size, which seemed to be whispering in a low voice, to another place, Lu Xi smiled contemptuously, and conveniently stuffed a mask for the little brother and Fenmao:

"You all wear it too. When you take it off, don't touch the cloth part. It will be very helpful in preventing the plague."

The stingy system is unexpectedly generous in terms of exchange items without magical functions. I will not mention the previous [What do you know most about life] set, but the mask in Lucy's hand can be exchanged at a very cheap price Taking out a big bag and giving one or two to the people around is as easy as sprinkling water.

"—Then, I'll go home first."

Seeing Fenmao and the little brother clumsily putting on the masks, Lu Xi grinned and said goodbye to them:

"After all, there is an idiot Zerika at home. If you don't take a good look at it, that guy is definitely the one that is most likely to be infected."

"oh oh……"

Watching Lu Xi's back running away, Cupid and Broca looked at each other wearing masks for a few seconds, and suddenly laughed at the same time:

"...I really love to worry."

"Same feeling."

Chapter 294 Discussing the Difference Between Chips and Angels

Lucy's house.

Watching Nana earnestly sculpting a certain part while bored, Celica suddenly let out a long sigh.

"?"

It's rare to see the optimist Celika like this, Nana put down the tools in her hand, and looked at the former with some doubts:

"Why are you sighing? Shouldn't Celica be playing outside at this time?"

Unlike the traditional magician who devotes himself to the ocean of knowledge whenever he has free time, there is never the word "learning" in Celica's life.

Lu Xi sometimes finds some public welfare tasks to do when she is free, and Selika spends most of her free time recently telling stories to children in the city.

Although in Lu Xi's eyes, she is a bright second grader, but the childish Celica is very popular among the children in the city, and her made-up series of "Magic Swordsman Ascends to the Nine Heavens" is also popular among these children. The high admiration and praise from the audience——Looking at Celica herself, she is quite satisfied with the feeling of being adored.

That being the case, why did Celica stay at home all day honestly today?

"...Well, I don't know why, but I always have a bad premonition in my mind today."

Sensing the worry in Nana's eyes, Celica covered her eyes deeply, and raised her head high:

"There is a kind of ominous atmosphere gradually spreading in the city, and behind that, there are twisted emotions in the wrong form hidden. No matter whether someone intervenes or not, it is a doomed sad ending to the story."

"……Uh-huh……"

The soft girl said that she didn't understand what Celica was saying at all.

Let me sum it up, probably because Celica was not in a good mood today, so she stayed at home honestly for a day, right?

In the long-term relationship with Rika, the second class, Nana has long understood a truth-when listening to her, she must not think deeply, as long as she understands it according to the most simple meaning.

After realizing that Celica's body was fine, Nana breathed a sigh of relief and continued to play with the gadgets in her hands.

The huge living room fell silent for a while—until the door suddenly opened from the entrance.

"It's Weak Weak Xi!"

In an instant, I heard who was coming from the sound of footsteps. Celica, who was still looking deep just now, jumped up from the sofa and ran towards the entrance:

"I heard in the morning that you went to do a mission with the arrogant pink hair. You are really cunning, and you didn't take me-hey! Where did you come from, you masked little thief?!"

"I'm Lucy."

Facing the exaggerated Celica with a calm face, Lu Xi took off the mask and sprayed some alcohol on his hand with a small watering can from his pocket:

"I know what you're going to ask, stupid native Zorika, this is a civilized and advanced personal protection measure, it should be difficult for a guy like you to understand."

"Native? What does native mean?"

Selika said that Lucy's complaints were so advanced that she didn't keep up at all:

"It was fine yesterday, so why is Ruoweixi so strange today?"

"Haven't you heard? It seems that a strange plague has come to the city of Rhine—come, light me a fire."

Using the black flame from Celica's right hand to burn the used mask clean, Lu Xi looked at Nana inside the room:

"You and Nana didn't go out today, did they?"

"No, no."

Celica shook her head vigorously, wanting to repeat what she had just said: "There is something ominous—"

"Secondary two is prohibited."

A head bounced on top of Celica's head, and while the other person was covering her head and screaming in pain, Lu Xi entered the living room: "Has Yuxia not come back yet?"

"Yes, she should have gone out with you and Mr. Cupid in the morning."

Sensing something was wrong from Lu Xi's performance when he entered the door, Nana looked at Lu Xi with some concern:

"...Did something happen to Rhine City?"

"Well, if it's not bad, Yuxia's busy affairs in the Holy See should also have something to do with it."

Pushing Celica, who was following him all the way to sneak attack him, back on the sofa, Lu Xi stuffed a strawberry into the former's mouth to calm her down, then cleared his throat, and told them what was happening in Rhine City :

"It's actually like this—"

"Sure enough! Let me just say that my intuition is very accurate~"
