Whispering Poems

Chapter 1325 Plague Merchant
Iluna and Xia De, who was holding Mia, immediately chased after the door, because the stairs are a little farther away from the hotel door, so although the businessman started to run one step earlier, the three arrived almost one after the other. On the Psalm Square outside the hotel.

It was already morning, and the square was very lively with people coming and going.The businessman didn't show his extraordinary strength, nor did he plunge into the crowd, but turned around and ran into the alley on the side of the hotel.

Iluna also chased into the alley in front of Shad, but just turning in, she saw the businessman holding the opened suitcase and showing her the goods in the box:
"Ma'am, do you want to buy medicine?"

Between the lid of the suitcase and the box itself, simple pulleys and levers are used to form three layers of open metal brackets. On each layer of brackets, there are small grids welded out of metal, and colorful pills of various shapes are placed.

Iluna's eyes widened suddenly, and she felt a bone-piercing cold wind pass through the alley for a moment, and then she felt that her body seemed to have become much weaker.Countless cold hands in the void grabbed her arms, and then those cold feelings rushed all over her body.Influenza, enteritis, bronchitis, dragon poison, many diseases appeared at the same time, but because of her strong physical fitness, she was exempted one by one.

Some kind of malice was staring at her with the opening of the suitcase. Iluna didn't want to answer, but she said uncontrollably:
"I'm in good health and don't need pills."

The counterfeit drug dealer continued to ask:

"Are you really not sick? Think about it carefully, take two steps towards me, maybe you really have a sickness."

After he finished speaking, Iluna actually wanted to take two steps, and the nameless malice became stronger.She was really thinking about whether she had any disease, and then she thought that she was worried about her weight recently, so she paid attention to every meal, and often went to the church's underground venue and the Galina Manor outside the city to practice thaumaturgy to consume Body stored fat:

"I may have some lately."

At this time, Xia De had also arrived, and because he didn't know the characteristics of the other party's relic, he reached out and covered Iluna's mouth to prevent her from continuing.

Iluna is a ring higher than Xia De, although her physical quality is not as exaggerated as Xia De, but if she really wrestles with Xia De, the time wasted is enough for the counterfeit drug dealer to escape.Fortunately, Iluna was not controlled deeply, and she didn't intend to move, so she was easily tied up by the silver halo flying out of Shade's hand, and then she obediently didn't move.

So the counterfeit drug dealer with half of his face wrapped in a bandage pointed the open suitcase in his hand at Xia De again:
"Sir, do you want to buy medicine?"

"Meow?"

Mia showed a kitten's head from between the buttons of Xia De's windbreaker, and then Xia De pressed it back forcefully.The cat was a different gender than Shad, so the relic was not asking about her.

Like Iluna just now, Xia De also felt the bone-chilling wind blowing, and while his body felt extremely weak, the invisible malice in the void grabbed him with one hand after another.

"Am I sick?"

Xia De also asked himself in his heart.

[I don't think so. 】

"I'm in good health."

So Xia De said in a relaxed tone, and touched his pocket while talking. When the counterfeit drug dealer wanted to suggest that he also take two steps, Xia De had already taken the [epidemic doctor ring] that he had taken off Mia's tail this morning. ] took it out and put it on his finger:
"I thought, even if I have a problem with my body, this ring will help me."

He shook the ring on his finger, the businessman seemed to be taken aback for a moment, and then closed the box dejectedly, so all illusions and malice disappeared.The obscene graffiti on the walls and the smell of garbage under the walls of the alley became so real and clear at this moment, Xia De hated this kind of alley.

Only under the feet of the "fake drug dealer", there is a small abnormal black shadow, and there is something wriggling in the black shadow:

"That damned plague doctor, even if he dies, he still wants to leave his ring and steal my business."

"Do you know the original owner of [Plague Doctor Ring]?"

"I know, I saw it in the fourth era, but that was a long time ago."

The businessman stepped back while talking:
"Since you have this ring, I won't sell you pills. Goodbye~"

As he said that, he was about to retreat into the inexplicable darkness that appeared behind him, but Iluna, who was a little annoyed, refused to agree:
"You can't go!"

Holding the dark golden balance in his hand, the balance symbolizing the power of the ancient gods radiated light, which directly washed away the shadow behind the merchant.At the same time, Xia De stretched out his finger, and silver thorn bushes emerged from the soil under the alley, and immediately blocked the exit at the other end of the alley densely.

"Really, this kind of thing happened early in the morning."

Iluna dropped a spell to prevent ordinary people passing by outside the alley from seeing what was happening in the alley:

"Tell us, what are you, if you can't tell, the two of us don't mind fighting with you."

"Oh, I'm just a businessman, you don't need that."

The businessman with a bandage on his face said, as if he was afraid of the scale in Iluna's hand, he took a step towards the wall:
"I am rarely discovered by church forces. At present, only the Higher Medical College of Serksex has recorded my affairs at the beginning of this era. I remember it as a secret-keeper-level relic."

For humanoid relics, the lowest danger level is the Keeper level.

"Are you spreading disease and curses, or selling pills?"

Iluna asked again, Xia De stood aside and did not speak, but was ready to do it at any time.

"What a weird question, how do you sell pills if you don't spread disease?"

The businessman wondered about this and explained his business model:

"There is always hatred and hatred among mortals, so someone came to me and asked me to give the disease to his or her enemies. And the disease, no matter whether it was contagious before or not, and it doesn't matter how contagious it is normally , once sold by me, it will become extremely contagious. In this way, someone will come to me to cure the disease, but I will only cure one person, and other infected people will come to me when they hear about my ability Find me for treatment. So, I can earn more than double the reward."

He said and nodded:

"That's why the Higher Medical College of Serksex called me the 'Plague Merchant' and believed that as long as I appeared, a large-scale epidemic would definitely break out. This is not accurate, I only occasionally cause large-scale plagues."

Then he was speechless. In Iluna's hand, a long spear jumping with golden thunder appeared, and the crackling sun gun made Xia De, who was close at hand, even feel that the surrounding temperature was rising:
"Leave this city and don't show up again in ten years!"

Humanoid relics are extremely difficult to contain, and are usually sealed or exiled.Although they threatened to fight each other just now, this is after all the Song Square in the northern city of the royal capital with a huge flow of people. Xia De and Iluna definitely cannot fight each other.In addition, once the opponent really releases the plague indiscriminately during the fight, then this matter will be difficult to end.

That's why Iluna made such a request.

"Of course, no problem, successor of the ancient gods, since you have caught me, and your companion still has that damn ring, then you have the final say."

Said the merchant, and Iruna did not stop:

"It is against the rules for us to let you go, and you should give us some compensation."

In fact, this is not illegal, it is a special case and special treatment.

"What do you want?"

asked the businessman hesitantly.

"If this ring is used by non-human creatures, the side effect is lifespan reduction. Is there a way to overcome it?"

Xia De shook the [Epidemic Doctor Ring] again.

"This is a relic characteristic, not a disease or a curse."

The merchant immediately shook his head.

"So do you know how to heal the earth?"

"You're not talking about the incident in the south of the old continent, are you? Oh, sir, don't you think highly of me?"

The businessman is taken aback.

"So do you have a pill like the relic [Universal Elixir]? It can cure all diseases and curses."

Iluna also asked, and the merchant shook his head again:

"You two probably have some misunderstanding about me. If I'm really that powerful, would you still be stuck in this alley? Although I'm a humanoid relic, I'm fine, inheritor of the ancient gods, I'll treat you If you want to save others, please do it yourself."

As he spoke, he opened his suitcase again, and threw a glass Erlenmeyer bottle containing white pills to Iluna.Iluna took out the pill, sniffed it suspiciously, and ate it after Xia De checked to make sure it was safe.

"Thaumaturgy-sunlight healing, when my hand touches the naturally occurring sunlight, I can spread this light to those affected by diseases or curses, including me, to heal them, and the effect on ordinary injuries is not strong. This is very similar to the church's divine spell [Sunshine Healing]. Although the church's divine spell can only heal oneself, the effect is stronger than this, and it can also heal diseases, curses, and ordinary injuries."

Iruna said, but Shad knew she was happy with the gain.

Xia De also looked at the businessman, and the businessman nodded:
"I feel the glow of the moon on you. The moon has a lot of healing power, and you still have that ring. How about this, this is for you."

He also threw a glass conical vial to Xia De, but the bottle was not a pill, but a black stone with a golden engraving on the surface, the engraving was a very ancient rune "earth", Xia De felt extremely Strong miracle factor.

"This is not my thing, I picked it up. Although I can't heal the earth, I have thought about how to deal with the problem. This is a treasure I found in an ancient earth shrine in the last era.'Earth Runestone' can enhance the holder's power related to the earth, and is immune to some of the effects of the earth's curse. Don't be too greedy, I know this may not be suitable for you, but I can only take out this."
