Chronicles of Ryan the Wizard

Chapter 824 Killing Plague (5)

When Orlando hurried back to the imperial capital, the plague had already spread to a small part of the city, and the despair and panic brought about by the plague had already enveloped the entire Fernando City.In fact, the plague spread by this corpse explosion is not as terrible as imagined, but the scene of the harm it caused is really terrifying. This will make people feel that it is irresistible, if those are shrouded in People within the scope of the corpse explosion willingly die, so it only takes a short time for the "plague" to settle.

It's just that human beings are always selfish. Even if they suffer bad luck, they still have a fluke mentality and start to escape. Some people even see that they have no hope of survival, and they simply ran into the crowd, dragging others to die together.The ugliness of human nature is fully revealed at this moment, and the plague is gradually spreading in the city under the influence of this selfish psychology.

Orlando listened to the reports of his subordinates on the current situation in the shortest time. Before he returned, the holy knights had tried to suppress the spread of this plague with their own light power. Unfortunately, the holy knights were better at fighting and defending. Under the protection of the Holy Light, you can ignore the impact of this plague on yourself, but there is no way to stop the corpse from erupting, nor can it get rid of the plague on the people who are splashed by the corroded flesh and blood.

"How about Pastor Bright?" Orlando asked quickly.

"General, we have already invited, Archbishop Reid and they are on their way...Ah, they are here!" said a holy knight.

Orlando turned fiercely, just in time to see Reid striding over with a dozen young priests, and behind them, there was a team with no formation at all. This was because of the difference in physical fitness between the priests. In good health, they can keep up with Reid, while some pastors who are in poor health or very old are slowly falling behind, but no one stops, they move forward as much as possible even if they use walking.

Orlando’s heart was very moved. He hurriedly greeted Reid and said, "Great, I feel a lot more relieved if you can come. Now that the plague is spreading, please pray immediately and see if the power of light can suppress this. An evil spell. We will decide on a specific plan based on your final result."

Reid nodded at Orlando and immediately issued an order to the priest he had brought. The priests who rushed to the front immediately greeted the most chaotic place of the crowd, and the Holy Knights under Orlando did not wait for Orlando. The order is followed closely behind them to protect them.

Reid shot himself, and a golden beam of light suddenly rose into the sky. In the long praise poem, Reid completed a "Holy Rain" magic, and he directed the scope of this magic to his own direction and rushed over. Thousands of people.Although Reid’s own power is not very powerful, the "Glorification of the Light" in his hand is a powerful semi-sacred tool. With the help of this semi-sacred tool, Reid turns the sky full of golden light into a curtain. It drizzled and fell among the crowd.

A middle-aged man whose face and arms had begun to rot was already full of panic in his heart, but after being bathed in the golden drizzle, he immediately felt a lot of peace in his heart. He subconsciously looked down and found his arm Shang Shang’s decomposing muscles slowly began to heal. He didn’t understand what it meant for a while, and he stopped blankly to look at the people around him, only to find that the body had just happened to his corroded companions. Similar effect.

"Ah! Bright God bless! I, I'm gone, I'm all right!" The man finally understood what had happened. He stretched out his arms to the sky frantically and yelled. After yelling a few times, the man again Suddenly fell to his knees and burst into tears.Not only this middle-aged man, but the crowd enveloped by Reid's entire magic found that the corrosion on his body slowly subsided, and their bodies began to heal at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Ah, that's great!" The priests and the holy knights who protected them also yelled. Reid's achievements made everyone's spirits refreshed. After more and more priests rushed over, there was no time to rest. I was thrown into this battle against the plague.

It’s just that the fighting effect is not satisfactory. Except that Reid can completely dispel the corrosive plague and heal the wounds on the spot with the power of "Bright Praise", other priests can only do it according to their own strength. To different levels of dispelling effects, only a few very old cardinals can barely achieve the healing effect, but they also paid a lot of mana, but within a few minutes, these cardinals were already full Sweaty.

Orlando sighed slightly, no matter what, at least the Bright Pastors could suppress the spread of this plague, which was enough.Orlando immediately issued a military order. He mobilized the elite troops he had at hand and immediately stationed in Fernando City, and then divided the entire city into several areas to firmly control the people infected by the plague and prevent them from spreading the plague to others. Then organize the priest to enter the plague-spread area under the protection of the holy knight for rescue, and strive to minimize the loss this time.

In order to appease the citizens in the plague-dispersed area, Orlando directly mobilized a large number of supplies to provide them with food and clean water. It can be said that as long as they do not rush outside or escape the blockade, they will try their best to meet their various requirements.Just in case, Orlando still mobilized the most elite third legion, that is, the shooters of the Jonas legion to station in the cordon, and any citizens of the imperial capital who tried to escape would be shot and killed on the spot for spreading the plague.

This is not Orlando's cruelty, but the limited power of the Church of Illumination. If the spread of this plague is not controlled, the speed of their rescue will not keep up with the speed of the infection, and once more people in the capital are infected with this plague, then It was a terrible disaster.For the safety of the tens of millions of people in the imperial capital area, Orlando issued an order to kill with tears.

In order to reduce the panic of the citizens to the lowest point, Reid and the others continued to fight endlessly. Many priests fell due to their physical weakness, but they still stood up tenaciously after waking up. They can now successfully recite a light magic. Rescue at least dozens of people, and if they delay for a minute, hundreds of people will die.

This battle against the plague lasted for five days and five nights. After Reid rescued the last patient infected with the plague with a "dispelling plague" magic, he could no longer support his weak body, soft Fortunately, Captain Bacon had already followed Reid and quickly reached out to support him.

In any case, this disaster is finally over, but Orlando still dare not take too much care. He still divides the capital into dozens of districts based on blocks, and each district sends elite troops to isolate them to prevent The plague recurred or spread again on a large scale, and it was not until 5 days later, on January 10, 206 of the Lunar Calendar, that Orlando announced the lifting of martial law.

This sudden disaster brought a heavy blow to the imperial capital. Queen Catherine claimed that someone had usurped the throne. No matter how Farath responded, the imperial city’s heart was unavoidable, and the killing on the night of January 1st and the second The plague that began in the sky took the lives of at least 400,000 citizens in the imperial capital.

The soldiers of the imperial capital suffered heavy losses in this disaster. The four legions were dissatisfied with the organization, and the two groups were directly cancelled. Moreover, the imperial capital army also exposed deeper problems. Due to the rapid expansion of the previous period, the army The number is up to the standard, but the quality of the soldiers is far worse than before. For example, in the case of the siege of the Lane's mansion, Lane, who is aliased as Fabia, clearly won the official competition, but the unconvinced soldiers were instigated by hidden spies. Get up, and finally a riot broke out.

In addition to these, the Royal Knights and the Church of Illumination also suffered great losses. Of course, these losses mainly occurred in the later stages of rescuing plague patients.Although the holy knights and priests of the light can protect themselves, they are human after all. They will bleed and feel hungry. They will inevitably get tired during long battles. If they lose their minds, they are likely to be the tight protection outside the body There are loopholes, which brings casualties.Although the number of such casualties was not large, the number of holy knights and priests of light was also quite small, so the losses were still heavy.

When the dust settled, people couldn't help but reflect on what happened to the imperial capital?Why would there be such endless disasters?And while the imperial capital was licking the wound, Orlando’s demeanor of angels’ arrival that night spread throughout the continent, with an archmage who could use forbidden curses, a holy knight who could perform angels’ descending, and a man from Ka Sano’s ally, the magister named Fabia can also release a small forbidden curse. Although it is not as powerful as Victor’s that can turn half of the capital into ruins, it can accommodate tens of thousands of Falash’s. The man’s manor was razed to the ground. It is shocking enough to know that on the battlefield, even if there are 100,000 people fighting on both sides, a forbidden curse of this scale is enough to cause a devastating blow to the enemy's position.

I don’t know if it’s because of these things. At least the monthly harassment of the Clays, Orcs, and Seck City disappeared in this January, but countless people began to think about countermeasures in secret, a lot of secrets. The diplomats kept running, they were delivering an amazing news, but on the surface, the whole continent fell into a strange silence, as if there had never been any rebellion in the mainland, just like decades ago. peace.
