Yuffie thought of those dead people who were like dead wood, and silently lowered her eyes, "Have you tried any methods to deal with this matter?"
"We've tried a lot." The monster opposite shook his head tiredly, "We tried to isolate the infected people, and the people in the village who knew medicine and alchemy also tried to cure them with medicine and magic. However... not only did it have no effect,
Others... soon developed the same symptoms." He looked in the direction outside the door, with a hint of sadness in his voice, "Some villagers were afraid and fled the village... But they were really able to avoid this.
Is it a plague? It will still spread this disaster to more people..."
The door opened with a bang, and Noka quickly walked into the room. He glanced at Yuffie first, and then turned his attention to the monster in the corner.
"Oh, there is another one here who is not hibernating - no, it should be said that he is about to hibernate!" the Gurno man said happily, "This will be much easier to handle! Let me do some checks on him, maybe
We can cure him and figure out what caused this horrible situation!"
"Let me come with you." Yuffie nodded and cast an encouraging look at the monster in the corner, "Don't give up on yourself. If you can still maintain consciousness in this situation, it means that you may have the ability to deal with this... plague.
There is a certain resistance.”
"Okay..." The mandrill-like monster opened his mouth, let out a huge yawn, and lowered his head to the ground, "It's up to you. But maybe soon... I will be able to sleep well like them...
Sleeping."
"If that's the case, just take a good rest." Yuffie replied softly, "I will be responsible for waking you up."
…
Not everything can develop as expected.
Although Yuffie tried to use secret techniques to keep the other party awake, and Noka also took out several syringes and injected some prepared drugs into the other party's body, the other party's mental state continued to deteriorate step by step. Three hours later, his eyes
Finally struggling to close it, the strong body slowly fell forward, making a low sound when it collided with the floor.
Seeing this, Yuffie stopped trying to wake him up, and instead used secret techniques to soothe his body and mind, trying to make the monster sleep more peacefully.
Unfortunately, this attempt was still somewhat futile. The mandrill's scorching body temperature could even be felt through its hair, and its breathing rate was astonishingly fast, as if it was engaged in a fierce battle rather than in a quiet slumber.
There was a soft sound behind her, as if something brushed past her and pierced into the mandrill's body. The effect was almost immediate - the monster's breathing calmed down, and Yuffie put her hand on the mandrill's chest and felt his heartbeat.
It has also dropped to normal levels.
"This is a powerful anesthetic secretly passed down by the Gurno people. It is enough to make a ferocious bear sleep for three hours!" Noka walked forward with satisfaction and touched the fallen monster with his foot. "I hope this can make a ferocious bear sleep for three hours!"
Let him have a good sleep!"
It sounds a bit like the Yit people's tricks - maybe these guys with the same short stature are some kind of distant relatives to the Yit people. Yuffie quickly shook off this useless thought, turned around and asked, "
What are you going to do next?”
"Of course - give him a comprehensive examination!" Noka said as he took out various instruments and devices from the package, "Every Gernor is qualified.
Research... ahem, I mean, doctor!"
He first drew several tubes of blood from the sleeping monster and arranged them on the test tube rack. He injected a few drops of liquid into two of the tubes, placed them on a square instrument, and pressed the button next to it.
Pressing the button, the instrument began to rotate slowly. Next, he smeared a small amount of blood on a thin glass slide, took out a delicate microscope, and placed the blood underneath for careful observation.
Yuffie is no stranger to everything Noka does. Compared to those mysterious and uncontrollable methods such as divination or oracles, most wizards prefer to analyze everything in the world from basic principles. To this end, they not only invent
He has developed many secret techniques for observation and analysis, and also created various magical devices to more accurately understand the laws of the world.
When she was still in the academy, she had seen Lin use larger instruments in the laboratory more than once to study the effects of various substances on living things. However, this time the "experimental subject" was replaced by a monster.
That's all.
She did not interrupt Noka's work. Analyzing living things was not Yuffie's strong point, but there was still a lot she could do.
She once again replaced her original vision with the secret vision, then closed her eyes and used her spirit to 'see' everything around her. In this way, what was passed into her mind was only a picture of color.
The distribution map from thick to light indicates the strength and form of magic power everywhere around. And she saw that except for herself and Noka, the entire village and even the large area outside the village were shrouded in a slightly depressing layer.
of lavender.
She extended her spirit to the sky and tried to observe a wider area. At first, the lavender color still filled her entire field of vision. As the range continued to expand, she finally saw the edge of this 'spell' or 'plague'.
The lavender light belt is like a long winding river, extending east-west along the continent, with a width of more than ten miles - or thousands of meters, and an incalculable length. This river made of magic is not static.
——It slowly swings its huge body, or stretches the small 'tributaries' that emerge from the body, as if it is alive.
Yuffie took a breath of cold air and raised her hands to press her chest. She knew that things would not be too simple this time, but she never expected that the 'problem' they planned to solve would cover such a wide range.
This is obviously not an ordinary plague. Simple microorganisms have no reason and will only spread randomly along with the host or the natural environment, even if they have the influence of magic. If you want to use magic to cover an area of this extent, you must use a lot of manpower.
, perform time-consuming and laborious rituals - at least according to her knowledge, if you want to replicate what you see now, you need dozens of intermediate-level wizards and above to join forces to do it.
She narrowed the scope of her vision and carefully observed the inhabited villages. Stronger or weaker light spots entered her line of sight one after another, each representing a monster that was still alive. Tiny light spots were constantly separated from those light spots.
, rising slowly into the sky like bubbles, blending into the huge magic river.
That "thing" in the sky is absorbing - or in other words, "devouring" the magic power and lives of all the sleeping monsters.
