(No pop-up window to read the full text)
Unfortunately, Mo Fan and Tangyue were trapped in Baizhen.
Mo Fan and Tangyue's situation suddenly became awkward. They originally planned to settle down in Baizhen, and then immediately took the Ferris Snake to Baishan.
Regardless of whether the skyscraper snake is the cause of the plague or not, this snake cannot stay in the town, and sending it away is the most suitable choice.
Who knew that the town was sealed off, and anyone who left without permission would be found out, which made Mo Fan and Tangyue completely plunged into melancholy.
"No, we have to force our way in. If your god is a plague god, it will only make the plague worse if it stays here!" Tangyue said decisively.
"Well, we will act after nightfall. But this will probably alarm the military mages in the town and expose us." Mo Fan nodded.
"It doesn't matter, the big guys can sense the positions of those palace guards and judges, they can't catch up with us no matter what." Tangyue said.
...
At night, Mo Fan and Tangyue took action directly.
There is a protective wall in the town, and a barrier is set up on the protective wall. As long as there is any fluctuation in the barrier, it will be immediately noticed by the patrolling military mage.
Mo Fan didn't care too much, he summoned Swift Star Wolf and let it carry himself and Tangyue to the barrier.
The moon and stars were scarce, and there were basically few people walking outside in the entire Bai Town. Everyone was too scared to go out by the plague. However, Hangzhou City was calm during the day, but at night hundreds of plague broke out Or, the news spread quickly, and people panicked to the extreme.
The plague spread much faster than expected. Many pharmacists were dumbfounded. They had never seen such a menacing plague. Healing magic had no effect on it. The previous anti-disease prescriptions even Speed up the encroachment of this plague in the human body!
Most plagues have a latent process, followed by the onset of the disease. After the onset, it will slowly deteriorate and spread, and finally a large number of people will die of illness.
But this plague, there is no lurking sign at all, and it will happen when it says it will happen.
Most of the plagues that spread quickly deteriorate slowly,
It will give people enough time to find antibodies. Not to mention the rapid spread of the plague, the rate of deterioration is quite alarming. The patient a week ago now has dense blisters all over his body. The blisters are blue in color and look extremely scary. If I don't get medical treatment, I'm afraid I won't see the sun tomorrow.
...
In the hour when Mo Fan and Tangyue fled Baizhen with the Skyscraper Snake, which was probably the source of the plague, the three people who were first infected with the plague died on their hospital beds.
This incident caused a sensation in the medical world. I don’t know how many experts gathered at the Magic Association Hospital. These people formed a circle, and everyone was wearing a protective mask. Grave corpse.
After the blisters on the bodies of the three corpses burst, their bodies were corroded crazily. During the day, they looked like sick people, but at night, they were completely unrecognizable!
"Mr. Lu, what do you think?" Zhu Meng asked in a calm voice.
Mr. Lu waved his hand and signaled the nurses to cover up the corpse. Even Taishan Beidou in the medical field couldn't bear the scene.
"This plague is the scariest thing I have seen in more than ten years. We have already calculated that it only takes seven days from infection, onset of disease to this appearance. Seven days... this is too much time for us. It's been a while!" Mr. Lu represents all the pharmacists, and he is also a top mage in the healing department. He can only describe this plague in two words: shock!
"Judge, I think you should know that the number of infected people has exceeded a thousand?" Zhu Meng glanced at the presiding judge Tang Zhong.
"I know." Tang Zhong nodded.
"Seeing these three corpses, do you still think that I, Zhu Meng, took my life as a joke and designed to frame your god?" Zhu Meng pointed to the three corpses covered by the white cloth, and said with a bit of indignation, " I, Zhu Meng, don't bother to use such a ridiculous method. If you still think your god is innocent, then what should be the explanation for these corpses!!"
The presiding judge Tang Zhong remained silent.
This result was also very difficult for Tang Zhong to accept. At first he and his family thought that the two corpses that were discovered a week later were the work of Zhu Meng, but when he found that the death of the plague was the same as that of the two corpses at the beginning After the corpses were consistent, he was also shocked!
It wasn't Zhu Meng's doing...
Is it really a totem black snake? ?
The totem black snake in the molting period has become so manic that it can't control its evil nature? ?
Reports have been overwhelming, and all major news media have focused on Hangzhou. In addition, the symptoms of the two corpses killed by the Totem Black Snake were exactly the same as those of the person who died of illness. Once this news spread, the panic-stricken city of Hangzhou would definitely launch a crusade against the Totem Black Snake!
At that time, no matter whether their totem guardians announce the totem black snake or not, the totem black snake will completely become a disaster. snake.
"The Totem Black Snake has inhabited the West Lake for countless years. There has never been such a plague before... I think I have to investigate this matter thoroughly." Tang Zhong said seriously.
"Tang Zhong!!" Zhu Meng yelled angrily, his beard trembling a little, he pointed at the presiding judge Tang Zhong and roared angrily, "You are still protecting that totem black snake, have you figured it out? The current situation. The number of infected people has reached 1,324. After a week, all of these 1,324 people will be turned into such corpses. As the presiding judge, do you really want to stick to the ridiculous ancestral teachings and watch these people die! "
"Maybe it looks like it inhabits our city now, but in fact, the black totem snake existed centuries before us humans. Our ancestors sought the protection of the black totem snake to survive in the territory ruled by cruel demons. To this day, I have built a city here and lived and worked in peace and contentment. There is no record of such a period in history, but we have kept it in mind from generation to generation. I also understand that the Totem Black Snake is the most suspected of this plague, but please allow me a little more In time, I will ask Tangyue to bring back some body fluids of the totem black snake when it molted, and if I can extract antibodies from it, it will be able to prevent the spread of the plague. But anyway, I still ask you to wish Member Meng not to kill them all!" Tang Zhong said.
