Five hundred and seventieth eight chapters disease
Studying plagues is taboo, which is one of the reasons why necromancers are not popular. Because the reputation of undead scourge is really bad.
However, magicians who study life and cure may also cause uncontrollable plagues due to mistakes. Several pandemics that have ravaged the land were all caused in this way. In comparison, undead natural disasters are an intuitive threat. As we all know,
How to react? But the plague caused by out-of-control magic caused heavy casualties by the time people were alerted.
The above is what most people understand.
Anyone who is truly interested in saving lives will know that there are some diseases that only exist in a small area, but they are contagious and the possibility of death after contracting the disease is very high. More importantly, today's fans do not know the causes of these diseases.
What is the cause of it being caused by nature? It is said to be caused by some necromancers’ plague research. Where is the evidence?
Most people's concept is to attribute the cause of disease to the god of disease, the god of the Lord of the Underworld. This is a concept formed out of fear.
And the known treatment methods seem to be limited. Certain herbal medicines can save some people, but not others. In addition, there are all kinds of weird treatment methods, which are difficult to describe. The same thing is that those strange methods are
Like herbs, they may not work for everyone.
If the lich in front of them just keeps talking about these terrible diseases, maybe the twenty-four magicians below will launch an attack on the spot to kill the evil. But the lesions, main causes of infection, infection routes, prevention methods, symptoms, and treatment methods can all be
Say something, even if not every item is complete, then the meaning to these people will be completely different.
For a long time, the only way to deal with diseases in the Lost World has been various potions and secret recipes, as well as the magic of the gods. There is not much magic can do. However, herbal medicine may cure the disease, or it may cure the life, and more often it will not cure it at all.
Not helpful.
Divine magic also has its limits, or it can be said to be divided into levels. There are many gods who can grant magic to treat diseases, but generally monks can only cure some minor illnesses, such as coughing, sneezing, diarrhea, weakness of limbs, etc., or
It is a minor disease caused by the curse of the God of Disease.
When encountering serious illnesses, such as high fever, coma, amputated limbs, severe poisons, etc., a higher-level priest may be needed so that the treatment of the disease can be effective.
No matter how serious it is, someone at the bishop level must take action. The living dead, flesh and bones, and severed limbs may be reborn. But even so, there are still diseases that cannot be cured by magic. At this time, people in the church usually say,
The curse is too deep and powerful to be eradicated; or the patient is not pious enough, so the gods are unwilling to respond to his request to restore health.
Despite this, diseases have not received much attention in the Midland. The reason is that first, the physique of the Homo sapiens in the Midland is quite excellent, and unqualified individuals will be eliminated at an early age.
Just like the reason why the mortality rate of children is quite high in an era when medicine on earth is underdeveloped, it is easy for them to catch diseases and die while growing up if their physical fitness is not good enough. They have no chance to grow up with the disease. Therefore, as long as they are adults, most of them
Very 'healthy'.
Secondly, there are so many dangers, both natural and unnatural, that most people have no chance to worry about such a "little thing" as death from disease. Usually before that, they will die from attacks by monsters, direct or direct consequences of wars.
Indirect damage. Of course, there are also troubles caused by magic or magicians, such as undead natural disasters, or the Master accidentally throwing a forbidden spell.
Even though most people in Lost Land don't care about diseases and only care about monsters or wars, for those who are determined to save human lives, diseases are the same as the other two and cannot be ignored.
In particular, the long-term torture caused by illness and the pressure on those around you are far from being comparable to the short-term injuries caused by war or monster attacks. In order to avoid this situation, in some remote places,
There is also the bad habit of taking seriously ill people into the mountains and forests and abandoning them.
If these diseases could be prevented, or if there were more accurate ways to treat them...
Thinking of this, the old scholars sitting below couldn't hold back their excitement, and even forgot the etiquette in the classroom, or the respect that should be maintained when facing a person who imparts knowledge. They immediately raised the question
My own question, I want evidence that can prove everything the lich said, even just an emotional statement.
The whole classroom suddenly became noisy, even worse than those children who had just come to the enlightenment class.
Fen just snapped her fingers and used the mass silencing technique to silence everyone in the classroom except her. No matter how much she opened her mouth, no sound came out.
At this time, everyone realized another thing. The person in front of them was a lich who was once called the "Devil King" and was more than a thousand years old. Everyone still didn't know how deep her magical power was; but everyone knew
Understand that now your life is in the opponent's hands. The magician who has been silenced is only a little better than the fish on the chopping board.
What you can do at this time, besides trying your best to escape, is to quietly cooperate with the caster's request, and maybe there will be a chance.
Seeing that everyone calmed down and did not release the silence spell, Fen then said: "As for your suggestion, I can't prove that these bacteria are the main cause of the disease. Or I can ask the other way around: Can you find other
Do you want to deny my point of view as the causative factors? Don’t talk about things that are caused by divine power to make people laugh. We are all magicians, and we blame God for things that we don’t understand.
There is no lazier behavior.—"
Fen himself changed the picture on the water mirror screen, which was a collection of pictures of the death village.
"——As for those who doubt my connection with these villages, I can only say that the destruction of these villages was not caused by me; I only went to observe, sample and record. And I did not have the ability to treat people at the time, unless you
I thought it was a good idea to resurrect the entire village into undead beings. But basically I didn’t want to carry those burdens around, and I didn’t want to let my creations run around after being resurrected, so I basically ignored those villages.
The ending.——"
People are constantly clearing up wasteland in the Lost Land, some are standing firm, and some are burying their bones in the wild. Therefore, in the process of traveling, I often hear the news of the destruction of a certain village. There are many reasons, such as the intrusion of monsters and unknown strange diseases.
, unable to obtain enough food for the winter. That’s why adventurers, professionals who deal with difficult problems, are needed to protect these civilizations outside the city walls.
In other words, the scene seen by the lich in front of him did not need to be deliberately created at all, it was simply the daily life of the lost land.
Finally, Fen replaced two pictures that were juxtaposed together, and everyone just found it incomprehensible. Only Lin knew its significance. The picture on the left showed a moldy orange, and the bacteria were single and not colorful.
The picture on the right is mold under a microscope.
"——As for the treatment methods, in addition to those unknown so-called herbal recipes, I also made preliminary discoveries on possible types of drugs. Some moldy food extracts from the moldy parts can kill bacteria. And moldy food
After microscopically enlarging the part of it, as shown in the picture on the right, I called it 'mold'. But because I didn't have a stable environment to study during the journey, I didn't make much progress in this regard. The main thing is that there is no way to mass
Collect the mold and confirm which component of the extract is truly effective and can be made into a drug that kills bacteria. Moreover, the amount of the extract is not enough to supply the amount needed to treat the human body. These parts still need to be studied in the future.
"
When the magicians who were speechless listened to Fen's explanation of his expectations for the future, their eyes lit up. If this thing really succeeds, it will not only save countless people, but also gain a lot of fame.
For most magicians who have reached the end of their lives, apart from the desire to save lives and heal the wounded, they only care about their reputation after death. In other words, whether they can leave any legacy that is truly beneficial to the world, not themselves.
Once he dies, everything he has done and established will be scattered with the wind, as if it had never happened.
Therefore, the thought of being silenced by the silence spell and having their lives threatened was completely kicked out of their minds. Everyone was working hard to achieve something in this new knowledge.
Of course, Fen could understand the desire in the eyes of the group of people below. While lifting the magic of silence, he said: "But don't think too much for the time being. If you don't have enough knowledge that you should have, just be bored.
I shouldn’t need to explain the harm caused by doing things blindly. At least you need to understand that there are many drugs that can simply kill bacteria, but drugs that can kill bacteria may also be poisons that can kill normal human cells. How?
To find a drug that only targets bacteria but does not cause harm to the human body, you must first understand the differences between them and the mechanism of their operation. These are all in the courses scheduled to be taught later. And as a magician, you can do it
Of course, that’s not all.”
At this time, Fen used the whiteboard technique to construct a rather complicated spell model in mid-air. Because he had restored his spell-casting ability, not to mention self-protection, there was no big problem in escaping. So there was no big panic among the people below.
Instead, calm down and see what this person wants to do.
Although the spell model is complex, it is a magic that everyone present is familiar with - advanced healing. Some people call this magic 'rebirth of severed limbs'. Non-apprentice level magic, even for formal magicians, will be difficult to learn.
Because this magic is a high-level tactical magic derived from the undead, and is used for 'limb regeneration' on corpse-like undead.
As long as there is 'sufficient' power support, any kind of disability can be restored to its original state, but there is still the possibility of failure. But the 'sufficient' here is not a level that can be overcome by a few magic stones.
Compared with magical spells with the same effect, the price paid for magic is much greater. So much so that this magic has only a reference value. Even if the magicians themselves are in need, they would rather spend money to find the Life of the Church of Three Holy Lights.
Chief Priest.
Looking at the spell model in mid-air, Fen sorted out his thoughts and said: "Healing and disease treatment in divine magic correspond to limb injuries and diseases respectively. But in the field of magic, there is only one that corresponds to limb injuries.
There is no magic to cure diseases. This has always been the case during the thousand years since I was banned. There are so many researchers but there is no breakthrough in magic, but has anyone ever thought about why?"
