Flint: "What? But I tried, and it didn't reduce the fever at all?"
"That's because it was immediately infected by something else after it was removed. Did you just throw the wounded on the ground and start treating them? No, you need to prepare a clean bed, disinfect the sheets and everything, and bandage the wound with a steamed bandage."
Lily gave the instructions while striding towards the injury treatment center.
Flint was still standing beside the king: "I tell you, it was really dangerous just now. If it weren't for Kailin's sudden reliability, your Rosalie and her sister would have died here. But in the critical moment, I raised Kailin's holy emblem——"
Flint raised the lute in one hand, and the lute emitted a soft holy light.
The king looked at Rudqin suspiciously: "Kaelin's holy emblem?"
Flint then realized that the thing in his hand was not right: "Fuck! Where's my holy emblem!"
He lowered his head and searched frantically, but did not see anything that looked like the holy emblem. This priest, elect, and messenger of Karin lost Karin's holy emblem at the critical moment.
But Kaelin still sent down holy light on his lud.
From this perspective, Kailin is still a pretty good god?
No, Karin should think that Flint's reaction after he finally realized that he had lost the holy emblem would be very interesting. This guy would make a table of dumplings just for a little jealousy.
He definitely wanted to see Flint's panic now!
This is how Cailin's priest, Typhon's paladin, and Lancelot's living saint interpreted Cailin's holy will.
At this time, Rosalie, who had been in the communication tent, lifted the curtain and came out. The moment she saw Wang, she breathed a sigh of relief.
She ran towards Wang and said, "You are finally back. We don't know how these monsters appeared. We wanted to ask Marika about the situation, but we don't know where she is."
"Here she is." Furu's telepathic voice came from the air, "I brought her back."
Everyone looked up and saw Marika holding Furu's tentacles with one hand and floating above the messy central square.
As everyone watched, Furu lowered its altitude, but Marika jumped off before it completed the landing.
Marika: "The poison was planted by spies from Moss Blaine. The leader was my sister's Shadow Dancer."
The king was about to speak when Elizabeth exclaimed, "Your sister? So they are finally coming after you?"
Wang: "Wait a minute, I've never heard of Marika being hunted by Moss Brian."
"I am a rebel of Moss Brian. I went against the will of my family for revenge, so my sister took the opportunity to make me a wanted criminal. It's not surprising that someone would show up at any time to take my head to establish authority." Marika said calmly, "I was also prepared to face their assassination. But this time it was not the case. They came mainly to poison me."
Wang: "Bryan and the Catalan Church are in conflict?"
Marika glanced at the people present and muttered, "The elves are not here, so I can tell you my guess. Massage Brian might have taken a fancy to this 'poison' of the state religion that can turn people into monsters."
Wang frowned, "You paid special attention to Nini's movements, so Mosa Brian intends to use this thing on the surface elves, right?"
Marika: "We drow have been taught to hate surface elves since we were young. The drow warrior's coming-of-age ceremony is to capture a surface elf captive on the ground. You can bring her back as a slave or just kill her and eat her flesh. Anyway, you have to capture a surface elf.
“In this process, all the skills that are crucial to the drow will be tested. It can be said to be the most suitable rite of passage.
“But for the drow, it doesn’t matter whether or not there is this coming-of-age ceremony. The drow’s real wish is for all the surface elves to perish, and the medicine from the cult has clearly given my sister hope.
"If we can wipe out the surface elves, my sister will have a huge political advantage for at least the next five hundred years."
The king cursed, "Foolish! Using this thing to destroy the elves and create a large number of twisted monsters will become a beacon to guide Ragnora to land in this world!"
Marika: "Aren't you guys here? You're from the Mage Tower, which is said to be home to many planeswalkers. My sister is betting that you can stop Ragnora.
“She might even help you in the name of righteousness, give you some good equipment, and she might even announce that she will accept me as a member of the drow again.
"You see, this way she gained political capital by severely damaging the surface elves, and also gained popularity among the races living under the sun. She gets the benefits from both sides."
Elizabeth frowned. "That's too greedy. You want it all, but in the end you get nothing."
Marika explained Elizabeth's doubts in a few words: "She is a drow, my dear princess, and greed is in the nature of drow."
Chapter 396 Making a decision
The king shook his head. "We cannot sit idly by and watch the drow destroy the surface elves. Is there any way to notify them?"
Everyone looked at each other.
Flint snorted. "The elves are still keeping their distance from the matter. Look at us. Ever since the floating island took off, at least the countries along the lower reaches of the Mayunya River and the Golden Bay where the Mayunya estuary is located have all come to show their faces here."
Rosalie: "Many people also wanted to build an embassy here. However, the land on the floating island is too precious, so we did not approve it.
"For example, the embassy of the Republic of Sissel proposed a fence with dimensions of 120 meters by 9600 meters. How many square meters do we have on our island? So I plan to build a comprehensive embassy building to house all the embassies."
Wang: "That will be after this matter is over. And I want to inform you that after this matter is over, we may have to accept the remnants of the Catalan Legion stationed in Isonzo. They are all the resistance force of the Catalans."
Rosalie sighed deeply. "We need to provide accommodation for so many people. Sometimes I think we can just move a bunch of boats to the island and use them as houses."
Wang: "That's fine. But let's finish the war first."
Flint: "Actually, during the battle just now, I had a brilliant idea to deal with the current situation. We can make it rain."
Wang: "A rain?"
Lily rushed back from the rescue station at this time. When she heard Flint's words, she immediately replied: "It is the rainy season now. There are fires and battles on the ground today, which has caused so much dust. It will rain soon."
Wang: "How's it going at the first aid station?"
Lily: "It's hopeless. There aren't enough clean beds on the island to put the wounded, nor enough sterile bandages. We made some preparations before, but we were too optimistic about the scale of the war tonight.
"We thought that unlimited spirits would solve most problems."
The king nodded: "We can summarize the experience of today's battle into a book, and try as many spells as possible on the wounded to find the useful ones. It will play a significant role in future battles."
Rosalie: "That's all we can do. We can make targeted preparations based on this experience... Where's my sister?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Oscar's cry came from the first aid station: "It hurts so much! This hurts too much! Why does it hurt so much! Is this some kind of torture? Lancelot!"
Wang: "As the living saint of Lancelot, shouldn't I go over there and hold her hand?"
Rosalie held him down: "Don't move!"
Oscar happened to look over at this moment, and suddenly stopped shouting, biting his lips hard.
The person who cleaned her wounds was a kind-looking adult nun. Seeing her like this, she touched her head lovingly.
The king heard the militia soldiers beside him gossiping: "Is Your Highness really eighteen years old?"
"Such a young child led us to resist those monsters. The children of noble families are really pitiful."
"Don't say that. When I was this young, I was already carrying bags at the docks. I was paid by the piece and if I was slow, the supervisor would whip me."
"Come on, if you give the overseer a little bit of favor, he will whip the ground. It looks like he is whipping you, but in fact the ground bears everything. The key is that the whip will still make a loud noise, and the overseers will think they are working hard."
Wang couldn't help but look to the side, and the people who were gossiping immediately stopped talking.
At this time, Oscar had finished disinfecting the wound and started applying bandages.
The bandage used on Oscar looked quite clean, but the bandages on the others looked like they were taken from torn clothes.
Oscar pointed to the bandage next to him and said, "I want to use this one. Don't give me the clean ones! I want to use the same as everyone else!"
Wang patted Rosalie on the shoulder and said, "Why don't you go and persuade your sister?"
"She's an adult and can decide these things for herself," said Rosalie.
Lily coughed.
Everyone's eyes were focused on her again.
Lily: "Regarding rainfall, I have an idea. There is already enough dust in the air. We just need to scatter some ice crystals, and the chain reaction should result in rainfall. But what happens after the rainfall?"
Flint: "Use Cailin's power to turn all the rain into liquor."
Elizabeth: "You're crazy! There are so many open fires in the city below. It will burn!"
Wang: "But the spores and microorganisms spread by the enemy will be destroyed. Transforming into a monster is an irreversible process, and ordinary people don't know how to defend themselves. But everyone knows how to prevent fire."
Elizabeth: "Do you support this suggestion?"
At this time, Xiao Bai finally couldn't hold back and turned back into human form: "Don't you understand the king's character? If giving up ten people can save a hundred, he will give up without hesitation."
King: "That's not the problem. These monsters will become beacons, so destroying the monsters and cutting off the transmission path is a higher priority than saving lives. Don't worry, I am a paladin of Typhon. As long as I have not lost the Holy Light, my actions are just."
As the king spoke, he took out the holy emblem, and immediately holy light bloomed on the emblem - and the symbols of Cailin and Typhon appeared at the same time.
Both gods agreed with the king's decision.
Wang: "Of course we can make preparations first, such as preventing rainfall from reaching the fire area. We can also find someone to call people to leave the building and take shelter in the upwind area."
Rosalie: "It's difficult to do this under such circumstances... The good news is that people on the ground are now running to the safe zone you opened up. There are no open flames in the church and the pilgrimage road. If we really rain alcohol, the people gathered here should be safe."
Wang: "Let's get started as soon as possible. Lily, go spread the ice crystals, and Flint will pray to turn the rain into wine."
Rosalie: "I sent airships over the city to shout, asking people to run upwind and away from open flames."
Elizabeth looked at Rosalie and then at the king: "What should I do?"
Wang: "Stay. There might be a clash of high-level forces tonight. The leader of the cult here hasn't shown up yet. I can't expect him to be destroyed by my holy light, right?"
In fact, it was really destroyed because of the miracle of Typhon, which directly struck the church where the high-ranking members of the sect were entrenched and killed everyone inside.
But no one present knew this.
Everyone looked at each other, and finally their eyes fell on Elizabeth.
Flint: "You should save the rest of your spells. All your spells are single-target anyway."
Elizabeth: “Oh.”
Chapter 397 Fengmanlou
In fact, the barbarian Gotrek is also fighting on the ground now.
His axe was useless against the monster created by the Catalan Anglicans, but he carried several barrels of liquor.
When Gao Trick saw ordinary people, he would spit a mouthful of strong liquor before speaking, and he would shout at people he met: "Strong liquor, strong liquor can prevent you from turning into monsters!"
By now, Gao Trick had used up all the three barrels of wine on his back. Now he could only fight with the strong liquor he collected from local wine merchants.
At this moment, someone suddenly came up behind him and whispered, "Is that Gotrek from the Savior Team?"
Gao Trick turned his head and looked: "It's me, what's wrong?"
The man asking the question was hidden in the shadows, but one could tell he had curly hair.
"I'm Niki, an operator from the Shadow Thieves' local agency. We've worked with the Temple of Kailin to prepare enough liquor. We've created a safe zone in Dirty Street with the help of the liquor. You can go there to resupply."
