Back to business, Owen then ordered Viscount Jarvis to mobilize two five-man teams from the People's Army and come over to learn how to use manual disinfection sprayers.

After confirming that they all mastered the operation method, they began to implement disinfection operations in Fengsuicheng.

However, there was not that much disinfectant shipped, and it was impossible to completely disinfect Fengsuicheng, so only some key areas could be disinfected.

According to Winster, plague pathogens cannot survive outside organisms for long periods of time.

In theory, active plague pathogens should not exist in areas where no infected persons have been found for more than two weeks.

But this is just a theory after all, and the actual situation is more complicated. Only by completing the thorough elimination of key areas can Irving dare to announce the unblocking with confidence.

In just two days, two five-person teams successfully completed the disinfection operation.

On the morning of the third day, Owen officially announced that the plague was under control and Fengsuicheng City was officially unblocked.

The city gates were opened, and epidemic prevention personnel removed the roadblocks set up on the roads and lifted the blockade of the grid area.

People walked out of their homes and came to the streets cheering.

Pubs and other places also opened their doors on this day and began to greet customers.

People previously arrested for violating epidemic prevention measures were released.

To celebrate the end of the lockdown, many people spontaneously held various activities and even saw wonderful juggling performances on the streets.

The city, which had fallen into silence due to the plague outbreak, came to life again.

Of course, foreign businessmen will not return to Fengsuicheng for business activities so soon.

However, as news of the victory over the plague spreads, I believe that Fengsuicheng will return to its former prosperity over time.

In addition, there are still places where the blockade has not been lifted, namely the two medical points where patients are still being treated.

Currently, the entrances and exits around the two medical points are strictly guarded by the People's Army, and no casual personnel are allowed to approach at will.

In the fight against the plague, the epidemic prevention team composed of the People's Army, city hall personnel, guards, and recruited civilians, as well as medical personnel responsible for caring for and treating patients, made great contributions.

For this reason, Irving decided to give these personnel a certain amount of additional coins as rewards.

In the early stages of the war against the epidemic, although epidemic prevention and medical personnel took good protection, some people were still unfortunately infected with the plague, which caused a temporary shortage of manpower.

Later, Angelica joined the ranks of air transportation, and the supply of specific medicines became available. Owen asked the epidemic prevention and medical staff to take preventive medicines, including himself.

This avoided the problem of subsequent personnel infection, and Owen himself never showed symptoms of the plague from beginning to end.

Lord's Castle.

Owen stood on the terrace, holding his hands on the wall, looking at the busy streets in the distance, and couldn't help but smile with relief on his face.

The hard work of more than a month has paid off, and we have finally achieved satisfactory results.

[Congratulations, Owen, it only took you more than a month to defeat the plague.] Winster's congratulations rang in his mind.

[Well, thanks to the synthesis formula of the special medicine you provided, thank you.] Owen thanked me.

[Fortunately, the plague this time is not too contagious. It is not contagious without symptoms, so you can quickly control the plague. 】

Isn’t this considered strong? Owen was slightly surprised.

[Have you ever encountered a plague more severe than this? 】

[Yes, the Earth Alliance has experienced a highly contagious epidemic in the past. As long as the infected person is infected with the virus, even if the infected person is in the incubation period and does not show symptoms, he is still contagious, making epidemic prevention extremely difficult. 】

Winston recalled a major epidemic that the Earth Alliance had encountered in the past and slowly told Owen about it.

[Then how did you defeat the epidemic?] Irving couldn't help but ask.

[There is no other way. Only when the whole people work together to fight the epidemic can we finally defeat the epidemic. Unfortunately, there were very few countries that could do this at the time.]

When Winston said the last words, there was a little helplessness in his tone.

【Wouldn't that mean a lot of people died?】

[Yes, the official data shows that it caused millions of deaths, but the actual situation should be more than 10 million. 】

"hiss--"

Hearing this number, Owen couldn't help but take a breath.

It's so terrible. Everyone in the Kingdom of Morning Light is dead. The number is probably not that high.

I wonder what the governments of those countries that have failed to control the epidemic are doing. They don’t take people’s lives seriously. How are they any different from the nobles here who despise the common people?

Such a government is obviously unqualified.

The day after the seal was lifted, Irving officially declared that Fengsu City would be his from now on and no longer belonged to Duke Lyman. He appointed Baron Kevin as the administrator and strongly condemned Duke Lyman for abandoning the people.

The act of running away.

As soon as this news came out, the people of Fengsuicheng were very happy.

Compared with irresponsible lords, they are more willing to accept the rule of the king who saves everyone from fire and water, and Baron Kevin's performance in dealing with the plague has also won the recognition of many people.

After this, Owen began to guide Baron Kevin to form a new city hall in Fengsui City, preparing to promote reforms.

Since the original city hall staff have experienced this epidemic and their work ability has been greatly improved, these people will become an important force in the new city hall.

In addition, there is also the recruitment of guards, which is handled by Viscount Jarvis.

To Owen's surprise, these guards were very willing to join the People's Army and hoped to contribute their strength to the king.

…

Longya Ridge, Lord's Castle.

For more than a month, Duke Lyman fantasized every day that the new king and his army accidentally contracted the plague, many people died, and their strength was greatly reduced.

Due to the blockade implemented in Fengsuicheng, it is difficult for many news to spread. Duke Lyman only knows that the new king's fleet has been providing various supports to Fengsuicheng. It is said that there is food here.

Upon hearing the news, Duke Lyman was overjoyed.

There seems to be a shortage of food in the city, which is a good thing. Once the untouchables are starving, they will inevitably cause riots in order to survive.

Under the double attack of plague and riots, how do you, the new king, deal with it? You must be very busy now. You deserve to be asked to show off!

Leaning back comfortably on the chair, tilting his head and closing his eyes, Duke Lyman was humming a tune and was in a good mood.

"Your Majesty the Duke!"

At this moment, one of his men hurriedly rushed in and knelt down on one knee in front of Duke Lyman.

"There is new news coming from Fengsuicheng."

"Why are you in such a hurry, hurry up and be reincarnated."
