Great, I'm surrounded by villains.
Chapter 411 Black Plague
Chapter 411 Black Plague
Jinli arranged a simple itinerary for the group. They first sent the Third Prince and Coyote Twelve to the Holy Metropolis Cathedral, which was said to be the safest place on the entire planet. Then she invited Duan Mingyuan and Jiu Yue to temporarily stay in her big house on the west side of the church square.
Every inquisitor enjoyed the welfare policy provided by the Church of Embers. Baptism was assigned to a three-story villa, which was equipped with maids and housekeepers to take care of her daily life and clean the house when she was away from the holy city.
On the way back, Baptist mentioned Yelena's case.
After completing the spiritual connection ceremony, Yelena fell into a long coma, and the scorching sun energy in her body became extremely disordered, which had never happened before.
Duan Mingyuan also learned about the fate of Jean Saintfield.
The ambitious man ultimately failed to realize his wish. After being confirmed dead this afternoon, the staff of the court wrapped his charred body with cloth and threw it into the crematorium.
Out of respect for the Saintfield family and the Semitic people, the Embers Church did not pursue his guilt.
Otherwise his body would be nailed to the gallows and publicly displayed like those of real sinners, and even after death his soul would find it difficult to find peace.
Duan Mingyuan was ready to diagnose Yelena.
But the scene in front of the Baptist Mansion made several people alert.
The gate was broken by someone, and the decorative stone statue under the stairs was broken into two pieces, as if it had suffered a severe impact.
The interior of the villa was eerily quiet.
The lights were on, so as soon as they entered the room they saw a long trail of blood, which extended all the way to the storage room under the villa.
Jinli's face suddenly changed. She went to the closed door of the basement and knocked. Immediately, panicked screams came from inside.
When they learned that the person standing outside the door was Baptist, the maids opened the door in panic, and Duan Mingyuan was able to see the tragic situation inside.
The baptized housekeeper seemed to need treatment more than Ms. Yelena.
The woman, who looked to be in her early forties, lay dying on the mat that the maids had made for her, holding her neck in pain. Her face was pale and she looked like she had lost too much blood.
Although the wound had been bandaged urgently, it did not seem to alleviate the butler's pain.
It was Inquisitor Yelena who attacked them.
After Baptism left, the housekeeper went to Yelena's bedroom with a carefully prepared nutritious meal. However, Yelena, who was lying on the bed, suddenly jumped up. She overturned the plate like a wild beast, threw the housekeeper to the ground, opened her mouth and bit the housekeeper's neck, tearing off a piece of meat.
This scene frightened the maids. One of the maids carrying a lantern accidentally discovered that Yelena was very afraid of the light, and took this opportunity to rescue the housekeeper. After that, all of them hid in the basement, fearing that Yelena would come looking for them again.
The symptoms sound exactly like those of baptism.
However, when Jin Li pounced on him, he failed to bite him. Duan Mingyuan speculated that this might be because the child's teeth had not yet taken shape and he was still in the growth stage.
"Does Judge Yelena, the one you're talking about, also like to pick up random things from the ground and eat them?"
Duan Mingyuan's question made the maids look at each other in bewilderment.
Although they did not live with Yelena on a daily basis, they felt that as judges, they would not do anything that would damage their image.
Just as Duan Mingyuan was about to further explore the cause of the disease, the butler suddenly appeared and gave him a new idea.
Before the housekeeper pounced on the maid closest to her, Duan Mingyuan quickly stood between the two, so the housekeeper bit Duan Mingyuan's shoulder viciously.
The situation is exactly the same as with baptism.
After being bounced away, the butler fell to the ground and began to retch violently.
Several black insects were vomited onto the ground, and after struggling for a few times, they stopped moving.
“It’s an infectious disease.”
Duan Mingyuan realized that he might have wrongly blamed Jin Li. The little girl might not have picked up food from the ground and might have been infected by Yelena without realizing it. Looking at the confused housekeeper, Duan Mingyuan was now sure that this parasitic virus was the same as the zombie virus in the movie. Once bitten by Yelena, the virus would spread to their bodies.
"Oh my god, this is a zombie virus!"
As a fan of zombie themes, Jiu Yue reacted immediately and her mood suddenly became nervous.
Zombie themes are always closely related to the end of the world. Once the virus appears, the existing system will collapse in a very short time...
But then, she suddenly stopped being nervous.
The main reason why the movie made her feel nervous was that the people in the zombie virus world were a group of ordinary people who could not confront zombies head-on. However, for them who were outside the movie world, even if several waves of zombies appeared outside the house, there seemed to be nothing to be nervous about.
Duan Mingyuan simply treated the housekeeper's wound and gave her a comprehensive examination under the worried gaze of the maids.
"This should be caused by parasites. As long as the parasites are expelled from the body, the condition will recover."
He quickly came to the conclusion that this parasitic disease was much easier to deal with than the incurable zombie virus.
But the real threat lies in Yelena, the "pathogen".
The maids said she had been gone for nearly an hour, and God knows how many people she had infected in that time.
The most dangerous thing about this virus is that it can be transmitted from one person to ten people and then to a hundred people. One hour is enough to cause the virus to spread widely.
Realizing the seriousness of the problem, Baptist reported the news to the church immediately.
This must be the conspiracy of the Night Witch.
For the believers of the Church of Embers, this was destined to be a sleepless night.
The ancestors who built this place did not seem to consider the threat of infectious diseases, and the outer defenses they set up could not help them deal with the parasitic virus that broke out in the holy city.
And for September, it was also a difficult night.
“Why is there no air conditioning here?”
She was so hot that she needed to stick out her tongue to cool down. This was a more serious crisis than the parasitic virus. Conservative estimates showed that they would stay on this planet for a week. In an environment of up to 50 degrees, she would not be able to fall asleep at all.
Duan Mingyuan looked at the pitiful September. The common saying "calm down and you will feel cool" could hardly bring peace to September now.
"There's no place on this planet that sells air conditioning!"
In September, I only brought sunscreen and a small fan.
But the fan only blew hot air, which didn't make her feel any coolness at all.
What is even more desperate is that people here never use electricity. They use the omnipotent energy of the scorching sun to replace all other energy sources, but now there is no air conditioner on the market that uses the energy of the scorching sun to start.
"Help me, Mr. Mingyuan!"
Jiu Yue could only ask for help from the almighty Duan Mingyuan.
If this continues, Mr. Mingyuan will get a fox with heatstroke.
"Ok."
That night, Duan Mingyuan had to put everything else aside. He urgently contacted Linglong and all the craftsmen he knew.
Now he needs an air conditioning blueprint.
