Chapter 164 The Threat of Disease

"The vision just now was indeed caused by you. As soon as I saw the red moon, I...wait, tell me again, what are you doing?"

"Upgrade." Lin Qi raised the soul image and pointed to the second ball of light, "Power, death, I also think it is a bit slow. It should be faster, but I am stuck in the understanding of power... Wait, you Put down the sword, why are you holding the sword suddenly?"

"Twenty days, others often take seven or eight months or even one or two years. You only took twenty days, and you told me that it could be faster? And with such a big movement, you told me that you were Are you upgrading? Some people believe that you are triggering miracles. Others are promoted to the second level quietly and unnoticed. As for you, half of the Rhine City can see the moon rising during the day... Forget it. No matter what you do in the future, I won’t be surprised.”

Thinking of the psychological trauma this bastard had inflicted on her since they met, Officer Natalie poked the cast on Lynch's right leg hard several times before sitting back in the chair angrily and picking up the coffee cup again.

She actually came to visit the doctor and brought a rich gift to Lynch.

The Friedmann coffee at the coffee kiosk in the station square is doubled with sugar and milk, paired with the butter cookie from the coffee kiosk next door, and topped with a small spoonful of rose nectar. Have it as a morning tea and you will be immersed in it all day long. In sweetness and happiness.

However, Officer Natalie was not happy at all now. She took an angry bite of the cookie, took a fierce sip of coffee, and took several mouthfuls before smiling again under the nourishment of sweets.

But Lynch always felt that something was wrong.

"Wait a minute, you're here to visit a sick person, right? Those are my condolences. Don't you think there's something inappropriate about their whereabouts?"

"No, it's very suitable. You don't want to eat, will you?"

As she said that, the police officer handed over a cookie with toppings.

Lynch shook his head vigorously: "No, it's too sweet. It gives me a toothache just looking at it."

"So." The police officer calmly took back the cookie and stuffed it into her mouth, "I can only eat it for you. You should thank me."

Lin Qi became angry when she heard this. She took out the two muffins she had left yesterday from the bedside table and handed them over. Then she leaned back on the bed and looked at the female police officer opposite. In fact, in the past sixteen days, She stayed here for eleven days, especially the first six or seven days. She even stayed in the empty room on the third floor at night. It wasn't until Lynch's condition improved, and at least the soul-shifter's normal combat effectiveness was restored, that Officer Natalie reduced the number of times she fished here.

"It's just that Victor was worried that the Watcher's consultant would be attacked when he was injured, which would damage the Watcher's reputation, so he sent me to take a look." Officer Natalie sipped her coffee and looked away, "Otherwise I But I’m too lazy to come here. The sweets in Charles Square are far worse than those in Station Square.”

"Ah, yes, yes, everything you said is right."

Lin Qi didn't dare to say anything more. According to the practice of the past few days, if this topic continues, someone's calf will be knocked. Of course, this time it must be the unbroken one.

Officer Natalie glared at him angrily, making Lynch confused. Then he put down his coffee and asked, "So, that person was scared off by your promotion to Level 2? Is he very powerful?"

"Well, my inspiration responds, no worse than Elder Nikolai's."

Officer Natalie held the muffin in both hands and chewed it, but her eyebrows were already wrinkled: "Strong men with level 7 power are rare in Rhine. Is it possible that another unidentified high-level soul changer has entered the city? You do not know?"

"Well, a stranger, but judging from his reaction, he should be coming to me. It seems like he just came to say hello today. If my guess is correct, he will find me again soon. Then it will be natural You know his purpose.”

Neither of them was worried about Mrs. Maggie and little Martha. The disaster in this world might bring disaster to their wives and children, but almost no one would target their neighbors unless those wanted criminals who were completely crazy would attack them indiscriminately.

"Then be more careful, and you should arm yourself as soon as possible. After you are done, we will first go to the archives to see Mr. Klin, and then take you to a secret society. Don't you have money? Go and see Let’s see if we can find a death ability that you can use. By the way, the secret method is also... hmm? "

Lynch also heard it. There was a knock on the door downstairs, followed by little Martha's chirping voice. A moment later, Mrs. Maggie knocked on the bedroom door and respectfully introduced the visitor into the bedroom.

It was an old woman wearing a knitted long skirt and a floral headscarf with a rustic style. Behind her were two middle-aged nuns wearing nun robes. When she saw this person, Officer Natalie quickly dropped her Biscuit and Cookie stood up, took off their hats and bowed.

Lynch also bowed to show respect. The old woman's name was Nightingale. She was Lynch's attending, a follower of Fiona, the Lord of Suffering, and a first-aid nun with fifth-level power.

Her strength is not high in the church, and her position is ordinary, but her reputation in Rand is astonishingly high. It is said that even the Pope of the Church of Tribulation has to wait respectfully for her to take a seat before he dares to meet her. sit down.

Because this is a true saint who has led teams deep into battlefields and epidemic areas many times in his life, saved countless lives, and is respected by everyone. He can be called a treasure of the Church of Suffering. Now that he is too old to run around, he returns to his hometown of Rhine to retire and use his fame and wise mind to contribute his final strength to the church.

"Well, my painting skills have improved a lot this time, and the story is also very good. But the ending is the same as the previous times, a bit monotonous."

Sister Nightingale carefully commented on the cast on Lynch's leg, making little Martha shyly hide behind Mrs. Maggie and giggle. She lovingly touched the little guy's head, and quickly sent the mother and daughter out, leaving only the female police officer. When the mother and daughter left the bedroom, she motioned to the two nuns following her to close the door from the outside, and then sighed. He opened his mouth and said: "Detective Leviv, your injury has completely healed, and I can talk about some things. Now there is something I need your help with."

Um?

Lynch liked the idea of ​​asking after the fact rather than making conditions in advance. He exchanged glances with Officer Natalie, then nodded and said, "Please tell me."

"I have my information channel and know the general experience you had that day." Nightingale sighed, "It's a good thing to clean up Mordiggian's clones. The threats in this world have been reduced again. But, how? Speaking of which, it would be better if it wasn’t Mordiggian.”

"What's the meaning?"

"Mordiggian's powers are cold, death and disease, as you know." Seeing the two men nodding, the old woman smiled bitterly, "His disease powers are the biggest problem. When his clone was shattered, In an instant, the concept of disease and the clones turned into billions of fragments and splashed across the entire Middle-earth continent."

"plague?"

Lynch suddenly felt horrified, as if he had seen the horrific worldwide plague at the end of the first and third eras, and the subsequent end of the world. The impression was so profound that after hearing the old woman's words, I immediately thought of a large-scale plague.

The old woman glanced at him doubtfully, shook her head and said: "Disease and plague are two different concepts. A disease must first be contagious before it can be transformed into an infectious disease. An infectious disease must also spread uncontrollably on a large scale to form a plague. There is an essential difference between the two. Why do you suddenly think of the plague?”

"Oh, overly sensitive." Lin Qi still felt very uneasy, but he could only smile awkwardly, "It's okay, please continue, what's wrong with the disease?"

"Due to the widespread spread of the concept of disease, large-scale disease outbreaks may occur in surrounding areas in recent months. This is an inevitable consequence of the divine avatar of disease power being shattered, and it is difficult to avoid."

Lin Qi frowned and felt a little heavy. He knew very well that he had done nothing wrong, but when he thought about the result, he felt a little awkward and asked, "What disease is it?"

"This is also what I want to know, what kind of disease it will be. Since a disease outbreak is an inevitable result, as long as we can know what the disease is in advance and make targeted preparations, we can minimize the risk of the disease." Nan Dingell explained, "I will do my best to research and confirm the type of disease during this period. As for the treatment, I will rely on your help, Mr. Lynch."

"Huh? How can I help?"

"Yes, if there is only one person in the world who can help, it must be you, Mr. Detective." Nightingale smiled, "The disease is based on the concept of Mordiggian's clone, and you are the one who crushes it A person with a clone, so no matter what the disease is, you can control it. Don’t worry, there won’t be any danger to you, just take some blood.”

Lynch felt his blood vessels pulsing, and suddenly thought of the story of the only antibody during the zombie crisis. However, facing such an old woman with such a simple request, Lynch couldn't say no. He could only nod: "We will go to the Watcher headquarters to meet with a master of mysticism later. Let's wait until it's over." , after that I went to visit the Church of Suffering.”
