The Journey of the Demon Hunter

"By the way, I think you should take a look at this. The occult professor of our college provided me with a magic spar that can leave an image. It is expensive but definitely worth the money."

"It has something to do with the plague?"

"Yes."

When it came to this matter, Rasti looked serious. The demon hunter and the professor walked to the northwest of the college, and the flower beds on both sides of the stone road were gradually replaced by dense gooseberry bushes. At the end of the stone road is a two-story red brick house with curtains hanging in the windows of the house, but he does not need to look inside to know what it is doing.

A line of words is neatly written on the door of the red brick house.

Anatomy observation room.

Obviously, young Yusevka will work here in the future, although the environment here is simply the difference between heaven and **** compared with the laboratory of the healing church.

Rasty took out a key and opened the wooden door, a strong smell of formalin rushed over his face. The dissected specimens float in cylindrical glass containers and are neatly placed on the display stands. The golden nameplates under each display stand have the introduction of the exhibited objects written in small red letters.

But Zelin didn't come here to see these anatomies. A small room in the Rusty Autopsy Room. There are some chaos runes painted in the room. This is made by the occult professor in the college to prevent the corpses here from attracting the water ghosts in the sewers below the Osenfurt College. Come here. On the innermost table in this small room, there is a lavender crystal.

"Look at this. It was taken from a corpse in the plague zone. Someone is willing to accept employment."

Rasty put on his white gloves, stood on a chair with a foot, and took off the amethyst.

"Have you told the hired how dangerous it is?"

"Yes, but they are willing to take the risk and make money."

Rasty placed the amethyst on a rune like an inverted eye. Demon hunters recognize this rune, similar to Alder's Seal, this rune can store a small amount of mana. The crystal emits a faint light, projecting the image inside.

"Look at it, this is an infectious disease we have never seen before."

Zelin narrowed his eyes slightly, leaned over and lowered his head. On the image is a patient who has died. The patient opened his eyes. No matter what he died, he must have suffered a lot before death. The lower lip was bitten and the eyes seemed to be protruding. To be sure, he had seen extremely horrible things before he died, which frightened him. Zelin did not understand the subject of disease, but one thing attracted his attention.

There were irregular black lines under the skin of the deceased.

"We got news that in the first place where the plague broke out, someone saw a woman in a wedding dress during the day."

"Day demon spirit." Zelin said without hesitation.

"I know you must understand this aspect, the demon spirit of the day, I hope you will help me deal with that demon spirit at that time, we will find the source of the plague."

"Maybe it's not that simple, Rasti." Zelin pursed his lips. "I suspect it may be the plague demon spirit."

"Plague Demon Spirit?"

"The ghost that can spread the plague to the entire country is the plague. We best hope that it is not the plague demon spirit, or it is still bound in place."

The plague brings the dead, the dead give birth to demon spirits, and the demon spirits carry the plague, which can spread to more distant places. A bad vicious circle.

Zelin stared at the deceased in the image, his bloodshot eyes seemed to be staring at him.

The first thousand one hundred and seventy-five chapters of temporary separation

"We haven't named this plague yet, but we still thought of a pronoun. Looking at the black streaks that appeared on the patient's skin, we temporarily named it... the Black Death."

Latis put away the purple crystal and covered it on the table with a satin handkerchief.

"We don't know where it started, how it spreads, and the symptoms after infection. First, we need to collect samples for experimentation."

"Why didn't you contact Eritusa College and Ben Ader College? Is there any response from Ryan Este University?"

In addition to Tishaya’s Eritusa College, Ben Adler’s College in Kodwin is also a mages college, and Ryan Este University is a school established in the far north that is funded by the Kingdom of Cowell. . These three colleges, like Oceanford College, are four famous colleges in the north. However, the last three colleges are dominated by academic research. Only Eritusa College is actively involved in politics, and it was the headquarters of the Warlock Order until the last coup on Sinide Island.

"We sent a message to Eritusa College and Ben Ade College. It is estimated that in two days, their reply should arrive." Latis rubbed the tip of his nose and walked outside. The pungent smell of formalin in the exhibition hall made the halfling feel uncomfortable. "Lan East University is very far away from us. It may take a while to know what's going on here. We don't have time to wait for them. They will send people to the college to understand the situation first, and then to meet us there. "

"When shall we leave?"

"Tomorrow. At that time, I will ask you to deal with the monsters that may appear."

"Leave these to me."

Ban Ade Academy is not an academy focusing on cultivating combat wizards. Most of its teaching is on the study of magic techniques. Their wizards are researchers, not warriors. The only powerful battle mages left in Eritusa Academy today are Tisya and Margarita, and they obviously can’t leave the Academy. The coup d’état has greatly hurt the entire Academy, and the Sorceress Assembly has absorbed a lot of people. The ambitious combat mage apprentice.

Plagues bring corpses, and corpses that emit plagues are not easy to clean up, which can easily attract scavengers. Even if there were no plague demon spirits, they would have enough trouble to face.

The demon hunter stayed in the academy for a day. Under the leadership of Shani, the young Yousefka went to the academy and nearby to get acquainted with the environment. The students in the academy hate the spy outside the wall, and Shani does not spare those bad adjectives to describe the spies who want to talk about the tip of their noses all the time, listening as if the ones outside are not humans, but dressed in human skins. Demon spirit monster. But it’s okay now. There used to be Ridania’s spies everywhere, but now, Ridania’s biggest spy leader, Dixcher, has disappeared, and his deputy Ollie Ruben has been thrown in for corruption. Prison. This is also the reason why Zelin can safely bring several people from other worlds here.

If Dixcher is still there, it is estimated that a spy will come to Zelin the next day and ask about the origins of the women who came with him.

Philippa is a sophisticated politician, but for the spy system, she probably is not as good as a boss under Dixcher.

Until the day before he left, Zelin knew why Rasty had set the departure time on this day. He obtained a charter from Tamoria, allowing him to seek help from the local garrison and officials when investigating the plague. This will serve as an investigation team to the plagued area, rather than the private actions of a few medical experts.

"I'm sorry, I may stay here, my sister... she is not used to it. I want to stay here for a few days."

"I know. You don't have to wait for me if you leave. We will see you at Mahakam in a few days."

Standing by the bridge outside the north gate of Osenfurt Town, Yusefka gently straightened out the collar of the Demon Hunter. "If you are going to the plague area, you must pay attention to safety. Your body’s immunity is not a panacea. Don’t be careless, really. If you don’t listen to my advice, you really get a fatal infectious disease. Be careful. You take me to Yanan’s clinic for blood therapy and use my blood. I still have all the medical equipment."

The parasites of the ancient gods in Yusevka were removed, but the bodies of those parasites still remained in her body. Perhaps because of the time spent in dreams for too long, Francesca helped her detect her body with magic. Finally came to the conclusion that her body is much better than ordinary people. It is possible that the blood of the ancient gods caused some changes in her body, but in any case, this is definitely a good thing.

Amelia is going to the city of Novigrad near Osenfurt to participate in the new big gambling round, and the Dragonborn will go with her. After all, it’s not a safe place. Yusevka will stay here and take the boat back in a few days.

"Don't worry, I know it myself."

Yusevka's forehead lightly touched Zelin's chest, "Don't force yourself too much, I don't want to see you come back covered in blood again."

Zelin stroked the doctor's hair lightly, and the silky silver hair slipped from his fingertips, with a hint of lavender fragrance. "I know, but sometimes, I have to do something."

"I understand, I understand, how can my hero be indifferent in the face of disaster."

The doctor took a deep breath, and after leaning for a few seconds, he breathed out lightly.

"We will meet at Mahakam, and we must come back well then."

"I promise, it's just an easy outing for me."

Yusevka kissed Zelin's cheek lightly. Then they separated, and Shani was waiting on the other side of the bridge. Rasty hired three carriages and brought all the necessary research equipment. His student Little Aira had been seated in the carriage. She has to take care of those glass instruments and props that will not be damaged due to road bumps. Seeing Yusevka's back disappearing behind the town gate, Zelin sighed and turned and walked towards the carriage parked by the bridge. Three Redanian guards were standing by the carriage, urging them to leave as soon as possible and not to block the traffic.

"It's over? You have a good relationship with this newly hired professor?"

"No, this is her sister."

Russty rubbed the tip of his nose like a mockery. "I guess no one in the entire college can tell the difference between them."

The halfling professor poked his head out of the carriage and said to the coachman in front, "Let's go."

"About how long?"

"Three days." Rasti returned to the seat in the carriage. "In two days, we will be able to reach the plague area, provided that the plague has not spread."
