Chapter 163 Plague
The headquarters of the Royal Medical Association of Loran is located in the capital, which has the largest number of medical schools and clinics in Loran.
Medical scholars are different from other scholars. Even if they conduct academic research, they need to contact a large number of patients. Therefore, they are scholars and doctors.
No one can guarantee that he will never get sick. In the royal capital, medical scholars are often highly respected.
Dr. Catherine is very famous in the capital of the kingdom. The cure rate of her patients is much higher than that of other doctors, which makes her very popular among the nobles and has become the chief physician of the royal family.
Chen Luo once was curious about the medical theory of Catherine's school. Now it seems that the biggest reason why patients who have been handed over have such a high cure rate is probably because of her identity as a wizard.
The magician cannot communicate with the healing elements, nor can he feel it, and naturally cannot discover her secret.
Catherine was the first living wizard Chen Luo had ever met. In order to confirm his guess, after visiting Alice, Chen Luo came directly to her clinic.
Unfortunately, although there were long queues of patients outside the clinic, Catherine was not here. She was summoned to the palace a quarter of an hour ago.
Although Chen Luo was disappointed, he had to go back first.
Walking on the road, Isabella held it in for a long time, and finally couldn't help asking: "Blair, what are you doing with Dr. Catherine?"
Chen Luo said: "I am very curious about medicine and I want to ask her some questions."
Isabella glanced at her mouth and said, "When did you start to be curious about medicine?"
Chen Luo said: "If I become a doctor, next time you get sick, you don't have to ask Dr. Catherine, and I can cure you by myself."
Isabella paused when she heard this, looked up at Chen Luo, her face turned slightly red, and she whispered: "Bao, you're sick next time..."
After getting away from Isabella, Chen Luo had no choice but to find another opportunity to approach Catherine next time.
Before that, he wanted to ask Alice indirectly, details of Catherine's treatment for her.
However, in just one night, things went in a direction that Chen Luo had not expected.
Alice still didn't come to school the next day. Not only that, there were more than half of the students in the class than usual.
Not only that, Christine also told them with a serious expression that from today on, they would not have to come to the college again, stay at home and try to avoid going out.
After Chen Luo asked, he realized that in just one day, a serious plague broke out in the king capital.
In fact, a few days ago, many people began to frequently experience high fever symptoms. At first, the doctors in the capital did not pay attention to it and only thought it was an ordinary disease. Every winter and spring, many people will suffer from illness at the same time, and doctors have long had experience in dealing with it.
However, the situation this time is different. The reason why the situation takes a sharp turn overnight is that patients have died starting yesterday.
The death was first among the elderly and children. This morning, there were two more adults, including a high-level magician, a powerful magician, who was vulnerable to the face of disease.
This has never happened before. Although there were deaths caused by epidemic fever, they were exceptional cases and have never been so frequent.
The terrible plague penetrates into everyone's bones.
In front of it, both civilians without magical talents and powerful magicians are so weak and powerless.
After receiving the news at the first time, the Five Colleges of the Wangdu City had closed the campus and were not allowed to enter and exit at will. If someone was suspected of having a disease, they would be isolated immediately.
Chen Luo looked at Christine and asked, "What disease is this outbreak?"
Christine shook her head and said, "Doctor Catherine has led the royal doctor group to investigate, and the Medical Association is also studying it. Wang Du has never had such a disease. There may be no results in a short period of time. You should go home first. If there is nothing important these days, don't go out."
Chen Luo didn't say nonsense and asked, "Where is Dr. Catherine?"
Christine said: "In the Medical Association, what do you ask about this?"
Chen Luo waved his hand and said, "It's nothing, I'll go back first."
"Stop." Christine suddenly grabbed his wrist and asked, "Student Blair, do you have any ideas about this plague?"
Chen Luo shook his head and said, "You have to see Dr. Catherine before you know."
The symptoms are high fever, which makes all doctors in the capital helpless. Although there are many diseases, ordinary diseases can be solved with cure. Even Catherine is powerless, which means that this is definitely not an ordinary influenza cold. Chen Luo has already guessed in his mind.
"I'll go with you!" Kristen heard this, without saying a word, and flew straight into the sky with him.
Chen Luo went to the Department of Fire and Mathematics first, and asked Teacher Britney and Isabella to go back first. Without waiting for them to ask in detail, he hurriedly left with Christine again.
When he flew over a certain street, Chen Luo suddenly said: "The Clark family is below, let's go and see Alice first."
Christine didn't say much and quickly landed with Chen Luo. Although the people of the Clark family were full of anxiety and worry, they still saluted Christine respectfully.
Christine asked directly: "Where is Alice, how is her condition?"
A noble lady wiped her tears and said, "Alice, Alice is infected with the plague, the princess should not go in..."
As soon as she finished speaking, Chen Luo had already walked into Alice's room quickly.
Alice lay on the bed with a pale face. When she saw Chen Luo, her face showed surprise at first, then she became fearful. She covered herself with a quilt, and her voice was filled with crying: "Student Blair, go out quickly, I will spread the plague to you!"
Chen Luo walked up, patted the quilt gently, and said, "Don't worry, I will cure Alice's classmate."
A small crack appeared on the quilt on the bed, and Alice asked timidly, "Really, is it true?"
"Don't forget, I'm also a doctor." Chen Luo smiled and comforted her: "You have a good rest first. I'll go to the Medical Association and you will be cured soon..."
Alice lifted the quilt and looked at the back that was walking out of the door. She couldn't help but feel a sore nose, and there was a crystal light flashing in her eyes.
A year ago, when facing the evil high-level magician Baird, this was also this back, blocking her, facing death, and leaving the hope of life to her.
A year later, when she was infected with the plague, even the doctor and her dearest aunt were reluctant to walk into the room, she saw this back again.
At this moment, this not very strong back was deeply engraved in her heart and could not be erased in this life.
...
After comforting Alice, Chen Luo did not stay in the Clark family for a long time and flew straight to the Medical Association.
He did not test the healing technique on Alice. Catherine's healing technique must be stronger than him. Even if she had no choice, Chen Luo would not have to waste his energy.
The buildings of the Medical Association are not as grand as those of the Magic Association and are relatively deserted on weekdays.
But at this moment, the medical association, which has always been deserted, is densely packed with people.
A sudden outbreak of plague brought together medical scholars from the royal capital, and they argued endlessly over the treatment of this plague.
An old man wearing a white robe said: "The fundamental reason for the plague is that the fluid in the patient's body is imbalanced. As long as the poisonous blood is released in the right place, the patient can slowly recover."
"Do you have anything else besides bleeding?" A young doctor snorted coldly and said, "How many patients have been bleeding and died of death by you. Researching appropriate antidotes is the right way..."
"When will the antidote be developed? Why don't you give them vomit first and let them drink some mercury?"
"I think the root of this disease lies in the head. You should drill a hole in their heads and remove the lesion's brain..."
"Shut up, you stupid guys, can one of you patients who have been drilled into your head live in ten?"

Katherine stood in front, looking at the arguing crowd, her face showing fatigue and worry.
The plague in Wangdu this time was beyond her imagination. If it could not be controlled in time, it would be a huge disaster, and it might be a disaster that would erase Wangdu from Luolan's territory.
Between her anxiety and a headache, two figures flew over the heads of everyone and landed beside her.
