Fighter In the Age of Magic

"My lords, please follow me."

Zhao Guang and the instructor of the treatment center went to understand the situation, and the rest of the group was led by several mage team members to a temporary station to rest.

On the way, Wu Xing couldn't stop looking at a few people. Most of the mage team members were in their thirties, but their strength was at the level of mage apprentices.

Compared with Wu Xing and his party, whose members are all formal mages, this gap is not one or two points. But this is the real reality. Most of the official mages of the Central Academy of Magic are gathered from the geniuses from the entire Eastern Continent. In some ordinary cities, an official mage is already very impressive.

"Such a young official mage is indeed a genius from the Central Capital." When Wu Xing looked at the members of the mage team, the members of the mage team who were resting on the road looked at Wu Xing and others with envy.

"Come and assemble."

The group rested for a while, when Zhao Guang and the instructor of the treatment center appeared and gathered everyone together. This task is not for everyone to enjoy, but to work.

"Next, we are going to enter the village to conduct an actual investigation. You must pay attention to excessive contact with the infected villagers." After gathering everyone, the instructor of the treatment center explained the precautions to the five new students. If it is not confirmed what disease the villagers are infected with, they may be infected if they have too close contact.

Of course, this is only an extreme case. After all, the white coat uniforms of the students in the treatment center have the effect of resisting curses and negative elements, but for these novices who came to the epidemic area for the first time to investigate, the instructor did not dare to relax at all.

"yes!"

Knowing the seriousness of the matter, Mei Lingling and the others nodded like chickens pecking at rice.

On the other side, Zhao Guang is also giving tasks to Wu Xing and Nuomi, "You two should protect the students in the treatment center well. If anyone with bad intentions approaches, you will be expelled or even killed on the spot."

"yes!"

Hearing this, Wu Xing and Nuomi responded.

If it is an ordinary villager who is infected with the disease, Wu Xing and Nuomi don't need to take action. The members of the mage team will naturally stop them. Wu Xing and Nuomi are going to stop some people with real evil intentions. After all, this epidemic is very strange, and no one knows if there is any black hands behind it.

Everything is ready.

Under the escort of the mage team, everyone entered the blocked village, and the scene in the village instantly made everyone feel dignified.

"It's the therapist, the therapist is here to save us." As soon as the healing student in a white coat appeared, the lifeless villagers were immediately excited.

"Back off, everyone back off, everyone will be treated, don't worry."

Looking at the villagers who were rushing over, the members of the mage team drank lightly. When they encountered a few disobedient ones, the members of the mage team had to do it too.

"Teacher, those people are too pitiful, let's treat them." Looking at the beaten villagers, the girls couldn't bear it.

"We will treat them but not now. You have to remember that no matter when you are, you must protect yourself first. Only when we are alive can we bring hope to others." The instructor of the treatment center urged, saying.

"You, and you, you..."

After finishing speaking, the instructor of the treatment center ordered a few well-behaved villagers and began to examine them. Seeing this, the other villagers also calmed down one by one, because the more noisy they are, the later they will receive treatment.

"Assistant Zhao, what do you think?"

Looking at the dense scales on the back of the little girl in front of him, the instructor of the treatment center said. The strange disease in this village will cause people to grow fine scales all over their bodies, and the scales will continue to spread, and eventually the whole person will be covered with scales. Once this point is reached, the infected villagers will turn into wild beasts that lose their minds. Diseased villagers will then become emaciated until they die.

"It feels like snake scales."

Zhao Guang gently stroked the scales on the little girl's back, and said, "Take a blood test, it's probably a blood curse."

"Don't be afraid, little sister, you will get better soon." Hearing that the bloodletting was going to be done, the sick little girl burst into tears. Seeing this, Mei Lingling hurried over to comfort her.

Soon the instructor of the treatment center took some blood from the little girl and took it under a microscope for observation. That's right, all the microscopes unearthed in the virus research institute were bought back by the treatment center and became artifacts of the treatment center.

This ancient instrument that can observe the state of the elements allows the therapists in the treatment center to quickly discover hidden curses or negative elements. Although the therapists can also learn the corresponding detection spells, it takes a lot of magic power to release the detection spells.

But this microscope does not need to consume magic power, and the saved magic power can be used more by the healer for treatment.

"All of you come and see what you find." After observing for a while, the college instructor said to the five students around him.

Hearing this, Mei Lingling and the others hurriedly gathered in front of the microscope to observe, but the 5 people concluded that there was no problem, and the 5 people did not find the existence of curses or negative elements in the blood.

"Do you think there is nothing wrong with this?" The instructor of the treatment center pointed at the scales on the little girl's back with a cold face, and said.

"We're watching."

The five blushed and continued to observe.

"Don't make things difficult for them. The blood curse is not something these little guys can see." Zhao Guang laughed.

"It's okay, these little guys all feel that they are very powerful, so it's good to let them suffer a little bit." The instructor of the treatment center shook his head. After finishing speaking, the instructor of the treatment center changed the topic to the disease, "This blood curse was not born by these villagers. There should be a source of infection nearby."

"Let's conduct an investigation on the village and the surrounding areas." Zhao Guang nodded. The only way to get rid of this strange disease is to find the source first.

Of course, the treatment will not stop. After all, the condition of some villagers is already very serious, and they may die if it is dragged on. Therefore, treatment and investigation need to be separated.

Zhao Guang and the tutor of the treatment center stayed for treatment. The blood curse is not a disease that few freshmen can handle, so five freshmen are responsible for the investigation, while Wu Xing and Nuomi protect five people.

"There is no problem with the water source!"

“No problem with the food either!”

"There is no problem with the soil!"

...

As the suspected targets of the investigation were eliminated one by one, everything seemed to be fine. The only real problems were those villagers, but this was obviously not the real answer.

No problems were found in the village, so everyone could only go out to investigate. After asking the villagers about a few places they frequented, Wu Xing, Nuomi, and 5 students from the treatment center left the village to start field investigations.
