Chapter 346 Terrible Thoughts
"What did you say? The plague? Why did the plague happen"?
The room leak happened to rain overnight, and there were allegorical sayings with similar meanings in the plane of Faerun. Now, for the first time, Joni understood this sentence very deeply.
The matter of Punk's sudden attack and killing all the great nobles in the kingdom has not yet been resolved, and now a messenger suddenly reports to himself that a large-scale plague has suddenly broken out. Even if Gioni has the will of a master-level powerhouse, he will inevitably have to be punished. I feel dizzy from the "big surprise" again and again.
"Soldier, are you sure you are responsible for what you said? This kind of big thing is not a joke."
Joni, who still had the last bit of luck, rushed to the side of the orderly, and then asked the soldier viciously:
"Immediately explain everything clearly, what did the quarantine officer do, and why the news of the plague is only delivered now"!
The distorted Joni looked horrific. His left hand on the messenger's shoulder had already scratched the messenger's armor.
"Yes... yes, Your Excellency the General."
Although the messenger who ran all the way was full of surprise at seeing the ruins called the palace, and was trembling with fear from Jiao Ni's hysterical roar and terrifying face behind him, but this messenger was also a assistant after all. The apprentice-level paladin of the Darth family, years of training made him say all the information that needs to be reported as quickly as conditioned reflex:
"Report...Report to General Zodas, according to reports from the temples of the God of Justice in various regions, the plague began to break out in the early hours of last night. In just three hours, almost 90% of the residents in every town in the kingdom He was diagnosed with the plague... As for the epidemic prevention officer... He... His family was executed by you for "disturbing the morale of the army" at the noble meeting five years ago, and he was not appointed again because of the emptiness of the treasury... ..."
Speaking of which, the orderly's expression had begun to grin, because he could feel that his shoulder blade had been scratched and cracked by Joni's inadvertent force.
"Nonsense! What kind of plague can infect almost the entire country in three hours? Could it be a legendary disease? Is this possible? This is clearly..."
Having said that, Joni's voice stopped abruptly. In the cold wind, he slowly let go of the pale-faced messenger. Then, the holy warrior who was overflowing with fighting spirit slowly turned around and looked at Punk, under the faint sunlight, those pupils that almost merged with anger are like two volcanoes about to erupt!
"Sai'an... the arrival of this plague is too coincidental, may I ask... do you know... why the disease can spread so quickly"?
Joni's tone sounded much calmer, but everyone knows that this calmness is just a cover-up of anger. If Joni's anger was like a raging flame just now, his anger has now become The magma that is about to erupt is more depressing...and hotter!
Joni is not an idiot either. The plague can’t break out suddenly for no reason and spread across the country so quickly. This kind of thing can be easily seen by someone. Out of a keen intuition, Joni is the first one without thinking. Put the target of suspicion on Punk.
Hearing Johnny's questioning, Punk couldn't help complaining secretly in his heart:
"Can't you hurry up? I spent three days poisoning rivers one by one myself. If the displeasure spreads quickly, I'll be damned."
Of course, he would never say these words. Anyway, there is no evidence to accuse him. Punk absolutely refuses to admit such things as the outbreak of the epidemic.
It's not enough to die and refuse to admit it, he has to quickly divert Gioni's attention away from this matter. After all, Punk used the "gray bone virus" not to fight Gioni but to deal with Ovacin.
Therefore, Punk, who had already prepared a set of rhetoric, said to Jiao Ni very calmly:
"I once heard a wise man say that if a disaster is not used well, it is just a disaster, but if it is used well, it can become an invincible weapon. Now, I have no choice but to deal with the disaster that happened in your country. Don't say a word - this is a good thing!"
"Good thing"?
Hearing Punk's answer, Joni was basically sure that this incident had something to do with the so far expressionless mage in front of him, and now the instigator actually said to himself that this was a "good thing" with a serious face. Joni even laughed angrily here, he simply leaned on a giant sword chair against a broken wall and asked Punk:
"Great, tell me quickly, what good thing is this? This is the first time in my life that I have encountered such a "good thing"!"
But Punk ignored Gioni's mocking tone, and his attitude was still extremely serious
"The horror of the epidemic is enough to destroy a country, whether it is for the weak Maple Leaf Kingdom or the powerful Dragon Roar Kingdom, so why can't this plague be a weapon against the Dragon Roar Kingdom? The pervasive disease, even Ovacin would be in a hurry"!
Punk's voice echoed from the ruins, while Gioni withdrew his distorted face and fell silent.
"Sai'an, what are you going to do"!
Ben Lajin, who hadn't spoken for a long time, frowned slightly, but Punk ignored him, and he just continued on his own:
"Mr. Zordas, a great opportunity lies before you. Numerous poor people will fill your glorious army. Hunger will be their fearless motivation. Plague will be a weapon worse than the blade. Then , Johnny, what else do you have to worry about?"
"But...what a huge sacrifice would be made by the unarmed poor... What is the difference between looting the food of the Dragon Roar Kingdom and robbers...the disaster of the disease cannot be allowed to spread..."
"Jony, your worries are really funny, sacrifice? Isn't it an honor for the poor to sacrifice for the country? Looting? Everything in the Dragon Roar Kingdom was taken from the Maple Leaf Kingdom, from the robbers Isn’t it unjust to return the property that belongs to it? As for the spread of the plague... Only after the war can you devote all your energy to control and research the antidote for the disease, or do you want to invent a powerful medicine as soon as possible and then be occupied by the Dragon Roar Kingdom Everything, let the clean land be the spoils of Owakin for nothing"?
Punk coldly said a sentence of fallacies that he thought were pure nonsense, but these "poisonous chicken soup" that secretly changed the concept were very effective for stubborn righteous people like Jonny.
As the "reasons" of punk became more and more obvious, Gioni also began to fall into a deeper silence. At this moment, even though the paladin still had great vigilance against punk, he had to admit that in At the bottom of Joni's heart, he already had the terrifying thought of "what this guy said seems to make sense"!
