Inside The Black Mist

Chapter 917: Prime culprit

Views:

The doctor, who was very academic, showed great interest after hearing the term 'Anastasis Syndrome': "How did the doctors at Harvest Castle describe this symptom? Since they had patients earlier, they should have conducted more in-depth research."

Aliwang said with embarrassment: "I am just a rough man. I don't remember much of what the doctor said."

"I know."

A female voice was heard in the room, and a girl of about fifteen or sixteen walked out. She had a dark complexion, her hair was tied into a long braid, and her head was decorated with bright ornaments made of feathers and animal bones.

Tu Moshan laughed: "Little Huangli, when I saw you last year, you were still a little girl, but this year you have become a young lady."

The girl named Huang Li gave a forced smile: "Hello, Mr. Tu."

Then she nodded to the Chamber of Commerce doctor and said, "I've made a pot of tea. Let's talk while we drink tea."

Aliwang also said: "It's getting late. I'll ask someone to prepare food. I hope you can get used to it."

They came into another room.

There were no chairs here, so when everyone saw the oriole sitting on the ground, they followed the local custom and sat on the soft grass mats.

Huang Li picked up an iron kettle from a nearby stove with pliers, wrapped the handle with thick linen, lifted it up and poured water into the teapot nearby.

While she was making tea for everyone, she said, "I was there when the doctor at Harvest Castle treated Grandpa. In order to take care of Grandpa in the future, I listened very carefully and wrote down what the doctor said."

"For the past few months, I have been looking back at what the doctor said, trying to find a way to treat it, but I have failed."

"But I remember everything the doctor said by heart."

Huangli pushed cup after cup of brewed tea to Tianyang and others.

"The doctor at Harvest Castle said that patients suffering from 'loss of essence' suddenly faint without any warning, and then scales like snake scales appear on their bodies."

"Next, the patient's vitality will gradually drain away. The extent of the drain seems to be related to the scales on the patient's body. The more scales there are, the faster the drain will be."

"Generally speaking, it takes at least seven to eight months for a patient to die from 'loss of consciousness'. However, this varies from person to person. It seems that young and middle-aged patients die faster. The longest death is no more than three months, and the fastest is two to three weeks."

Tu Moshan exclaimed: "There is such a thing, what about Dad?"

Huang Li said in a depressed mood: "Grandpa has been ill for nearly five months. It is very likely that he will not survive until next month."

The girl's eyes became moist and a tear dropped.

The Chamber of Commerce doctor stroked the outside of the teacup and said, "The doctors at Harvest Castle are helpless in this situation?"

Huang Li nodded slightly. "Yes, that doctor said. If the Church of the God of Nature had not been expelled by the city lord, there might be some way. The church is good at using various natural herbs to treat patients, so maybe they can find a solution."

Tianyang frowned. Based on what he had seen and heard, plus Huangli's words now, he pieced together a 'puzzle' in his mind.

First of all, the lord of Harvest Castle suddenly changed his beliefs for some unknown reason.

He then expelled the Church of Nature God and issued various bans, canceling the harvest festival.

After the departure of the Church of the God of Nature, the 'loss of essence disease' appeared, and this disease was common in the Harvest Castle.

The doctors were helpless.

From this point of view, 'loss of essence' should not be a simple disease. It did not appear earlier or later, but only appeared after the Church of the God of Nature was expelled.

This is too much of a coincidence.

What a coincidence, it seemed that this disease was afraid of the Church of the God of Nature, so it dared to appear only after they left.

Of course, the disease itself cannot have thoughts, but the culprit that spreads the disease may not be so.

All of this vaguely points to the old city lord's new faith.

What exactly does the city lord believe in

There were footsteps outside.

I thought it was Aliwang who brought food, but it turned out to be Sun Sun. This little girl was always fearless and lively. But now, she was pale and panicked. She rushed in and shouted, "Something happened. Our boss is in a coma."

Tianyang stood up suddenly.

"Sun Sun, what's going on?"

The little girl was so anxious that she was about to cry. She shook her head and said, "I don't know either. She was just talking to us. As she was talking, she suddenly fell down with a thud."

"I thought she was playing a prank on me, but I found out that her whole body was hot, like she had a high fever. Moreover, she was unconscious and I couldn't wake her up no matter how hard I called her."

"So I went to look for a doctor, and when I heard the doctor was here, I came here."

Tu Moshan hurriedly said, "Go and show it to Miss Yue Guang."

Tianyang's heart beat faster.

Yue Guang is an Ascender, and a Level 6 Ascender at that. At her level of sublimation, she is no longer susceptible to illness. How could she suddenly faint

"Doctor, I'll carry you there." Tianyang came to the door of the small building, put on his boots, and said to the doctor who was hurriedly running out with the medicine box.

Carried by Tianyang, the two quickly returned to the caravan and the magnetic vehicle of the White Moonlight Hunting Group.

At the door of the magnetic energy car, Liu Ya and Fatty were pacing around anxiously like ants on a hot pot. When they saw the doctor coming, they quickly invited him in.

Tianyang also followed him in. As soon as he entered the cabin, he saw Yueguang lying on the ground. Someone had put an ice pack on her forehead, but Yueguang's face still had an unnatural blush.

The doctor hurriedly examined her, and just as he pulled up Moonlight's sleeve, he exclaimed softly, "Snake, snake scales!"

Tianyang's whole body trembled, and he flashed forward. Sure enough, blue-green snake scales had crawled onto Yueguang's arm at some point.

"Loss of Metaphysics!"

He and the doctor exclaimed at the same time.

Sun Sun, who came hurriedly from behind, heard these three words and couldn't help asking, "What is the atrophy syndrome?"

The Chamber of Commerce doctor smiled bitterly and said, "I just found out about this symptom too. It's..."

While the doctor was explaining to Sun Sun and others what amnesia was, Tian Yang fell into deep thought. How could Yue Guang get amnesia? What did she do or what did she encounter

Snake scales...

Sudden.

Tianyang remembered that night when they were ambushed by Ling Yuandu, when they were returning to the hotel, Tianyang felt a chill and even the Obsidian Furnace was triggered.

At that time, the Obsidian Furnace spewed out green smoke, as if it was trying to expel something, and in the green smoke, a flat head similar to that of a python vaguely appeared!

Could it be that this is the culprit that spread the 'loss of essence syndrome'

I almost got infected at that time.

This disease was saved by the Obsidian Furnace. But Moonlight didn't have a furnace, so she was targeted

If this is the case.

Tianyang squatted down and reached out to hold the snake scales on Moonlight's hand. He mobilized the dark particles and input them into Moonlight's body.

moment.

Tianyang suddenly felt a sharp pain on his forehead, the sound of a poisonous snake spitting out its tongue vaguely echoed in his mind, and he even smelled an unreal stench of decay.

but.

He discovered that the snake scales on Yue Guang's hand were turning black and then dispersing into wisps of black smoke.

Are dark particles effective in treating 'loss of consciousness'

No, that's not right.

Tian Yang sensed carefully and found that the dark particles were not healing, but more like devouring the snake scales. Through the contact of the dark particles, he vaguely felt that there was a special breath in these snake scales.

Very close to the Obsidian Furnace which is considered as the 'source' of 'food'!

As the snake scales on Yue Guang's arms decreased, the blush on her face began to slowly dissipate. Suddenly, Yue Guang opened her eyes, and her pupils first expanded and became round, then suddenly narrowed and transformed into vertical pupils.

Like, the eyes of a snake.

She looked at Tianyang, stood up suddenly, reached out and grabbed Tianyang's throat, and let out an unwilling roar.

In an instant, Tianyang was in a trance and saw some pictures.

It seemed to be the remains of an ancient city. It was very dark. Tianyang saw a pillar half-fallen on the ground. There was some totem on it, like a giant python with wings.

Deep in the ruins, in the darkness that Tianyang could not see clearly, there were two red flames floating. Suddenly, something jumped towards him. Tianyang vaguely saw long and thick hair, a female face, a scaly snake body, curved fangs, and a pair of rotten wings...

When he came to his senses, he was still in the cabin. Yueguang rolled his eyes, let go of his hand, and lay down on the ground again.

"Boss."

"Did the boss wake up just now?"

Sun Sun rushed over, touched Yue Guang's face, and said in surprise: "The boss's fever has subsided."

At this time, Yue Guang opened her eyes with difficulty. Her pupils had returned to normal. She looked around in confusion: "What's going on?"

After examination, Yue Guang had basically recovered to normal, but her body was still weak. In the short quarter of an hour that she was unconscious, she lost a lot of vitality and star energy.

According to the doctor's speculation, if he continues at this rate, Yue Guang may die in just one day.

But Yue Guang's situation was still not optimistic. Not long after the scales on her body disappeared, they grew again. But this time, they appeared very slowly, and only one scale would emerge in about an hour.

But no one can tell whether the scales on her body will suddenly erupt, like before.

Tianyang is now certain that he can use dark particles to devour the scales, but this is only a temporary solution and not a permanent cure.

The culprit that spread the "loss of essence syndrome" should be the monster that looked like a woman and a snake, with rotten wings, that he saw in his hallucination, but Tianyang didn't know where it was.

As he was thinking about countermeasures, he saw Xiaoxiang running by, with a toy in his hand. Tianyang glanced at him unintentionally, then suddenly pulled his eyes back. He stood up and said, "Xiaoxiang, where did the toy in your hand come from?"

In the little boy's hand, there is a snake carved out of wood, but the snake has a pair of wings on its back!
