Henry Moore was sitting on the main seat with a gloomy look on his face.
The last two days have been really difficult.
Although he had been alert since receiving the report from the testing department and began to prepare for various emergencies, he never expected that things would happen so suddenly and without warning in just a day or two. In just a matter of time, the situation within the defense line completely deteriorated, catching him completely off guard.
After taking a slight breath, he looked at the representatives of various races and demigod-level experts in other seats, and said with an ugly face: "Now the plague in the city has been completely out of control. I don't even know how many people are infected." We don’t know yet, so in order to narrow the scope of the situation and avoid involving the outside world as much as possible, I have now sealed off all the channels connecting the inside of the defense line with the outside world, leaving only some material transportation channels that are carefully operated under strict defense. "
A human old man asked aloud: "Having said that, those patients must be treated as necessary. I have a suggestion, that is, can we use the giant barrier that covers the entire defense line to search for patients inside the defense line? number, thereby separating them from uninfected people and temporarily restoring some internal order."
In response, many people in the conference room nodded in support.
But Henry Moore shook his head helplessly and sighed: "Although that defensive barrier has the ability to detect disease patients, its detection intensity is almost the same as the detection ritual for detecting combat soldiers. This means that there will still be a large number of hidden dangers. Sexually transmitted infections cannot be detected, and a large number of sources of disease will be missed no matter how isolated they are, so that kind of move is meaningless."
After listening to his words, many beings also showed distress on their faces.
That means they can't carry out a separate isolation policy at all. They can only assume that everyone is infected and adopt the stupid method of quarantining the whole city together.
And that is undoubtedly an extremely negative treatment method. According to the current treatment conditions, there will definitely be countless casualties in the city, so it can only be regarded as an act of necessity.
Furthermore, it would be fine if it were during peacetime, but during this kind of plane war, that kind of action would undoubtedly significantly weaken the combat effectiveness of this line of defense, which would inevitably lead to the inevitable A state of decline occurs.
This is undoubtedly an unacceptable thing for those present who are burdened with the fate of their own race outside the defense line.
'We must do our best to contain it!!'
This is the default for all existence.
After thinking for a while, another demigod suggested:
“Since we can’t solve the plague, can we solve the perpetrators behind the plague?
Those plagues have a lot in common, and their onset times are very similar, so their sources should be basically similar. Can the problem be solved at the source based on this?
Although I don’t know if killing the releaser can relieve the plague, I think we might give it a try.”
"I have thought about this question before."
Henry Moore replied: "I also tried to use prophecy spells for divination to confirm the other party's traces.
But more than a dozen legendary mages specializing in prophecy all failed!
No useful information was obtained, and many people even vaguely saw something extremely distorted and unknown when divining the other party, which directly caused a lot of mental damage."
After stroking his beard and thinking for a while, Charlier, a demigod mage, looked at each other and another demigod mage beside him, and then said: "Since they saw something twisted, and
If there is no life-threatening danger, then it means that the other party has not exceeded a certain level and is still within the range of contact, so maybe I can give it a try."
Hearing this, Henry's eyes suddenly lit up.
He really didn't know what the specific abilities of these demigods were. After all, each of these guys lived longer than the last, and each was more sinister than the last. No one except themselves could figure out how many trump cards they had hidden.
At this moment, when he heard that a demigod-level expert wanted to volunteer to try, he naturally had no reason to object and immediately expressed his strong support. If he needed any casting materials, just bring them and all the expenses would be borne by him.
Faced with his generosity and the relationship with someone taking the lead, several demigod-level mages who had no confidence at first also stood up and expressed their intention to do their part.
Finally, after some discussion, they planned to get together and work together to hold a large-scale divination ceremony, trying to uncover the shady behind the scenes and completely solve the problem.
-----
Soon after.
With the concerted efforts of many forces within the defense line, some people came out and some things came out.
A magical ritual covering an area of thousands of square meters, using a large number of rare materials and extremely complicated styles, was methodically depicted in a square.
After standing at the edge of the ceremony and looking at each other for a few times, several demigod-level mages who were basically standing at the top of the mortal world closed their eyes with solemn expressions, and at the same time began to chant the complicated mantras, and
An inexplicable force was gradually attracted by them.
As the ceremony progressed, monsters were beating passers-by hundreds of kilometers away.
Orshiga, who was enjoying her daily entertainment and relaxing her mood, immediately sensed something abnormal!
After knocking the head of a certain mid-level demon dozens of kilometers away with one fist, Orshika didn't even bother to look at the opponent's body that was still standing upright, and looked directly at the position of the defense line.
He clearly felt that a lot of malice was being transmitted there.
And many of the hundreds of constant spells he has released on himself are being automatically triggered.
They are all anti-reconnaissance or anti-prophecy spells.
In this regard, he had no nervous thoughts at all, he just smiled and said to himself: "The movement this time seems to be quite big..."
In the past two days, people often used magic to try to detect his information.
However, those actions were undoubtedly much more trivial than this time, and they were not even qualified to attract his attention.
At this moment, realizing that his innate ability was warning him, Orshika's willpower directly turned into a twisted shadow and escaped into the void through some indescribable method, facing the path heading straight towards him.
The incoming spell bumped into it, trying to block the opponent's exploration.
In the battlefield of willpower, the two sides began to compete in the most direct way.
-----
"Cough cough cough..."
Under the tense gaze of everyone, a certain demigod-level mage standing next to the prophecy ceremony changed his face for a while, and veins suddenly popped up on his forehead.
As if he had been greatly stimulated, he began to cough violently and continuously, and blood foam even flowed from the corners of his mouth.
"puff!"
With a mouthful of blood spitting out, he completely collapsed to the ground.
Everyone rushed up to support him and began to provide him with emergency treatment.
The demigod mage around him, who still had his eyes closed and was still performing rituals, was still able to continue to persevere even though his injuries were far less serious than him.
But most of them had extremely ugly faces and were obviously in trouble.
