Soul echo

Chapter 329 City of Plague
--what's going on?
Zhong Ye's eyes widened, and countless thoughts flashed through his mind.

"What happened?" Zhong Ye stood in the aisle between the two rows of benches, shouting towards the empty hall.

Although there are only a few cracks on the statue now, as long as the gods themselves are still there, it is impossible for their statues to shatter.

Every statue recognized by the gods is under the protection of their divine power. Now that there is a crack in the statue of the God of Medicine in Auxerre, it is very likely that something happened to the God of Medicine!

Most people would only be at a loss at such a time, but Zhong Ye planned to take action.

——If he really brought the disaster in this city, he has the responsibility to deal with this incident and save the city!

Although he has not been in contact with those gods for a long time, he is indeed an 'employee' of the gods and has the ability to contact them.

Not long after his voice fell, a screen popped up in front of his eyes.

【... Attack... It's okay... Be careful...】

Without being able to complete a sentence, the screen was shattered and then completely disappeared.

Looking at the air in front of him, Zhong Ye's expression was complicated and difficult to understand.

What happened?Even the connection with the gods will be cut off.

The root of the problem may not be with the gods, but in this town!
Zhong Ye took a deep breath, turned and left the church.

Walked to the carriage, knocked on the window, attracted Lilian and the others' attention, and said: "Now this city has a big problem, even the priests of the God of Healing are infected with the plague, if If nothing else, the abyss attacked here."

Hearing this, Lily was too scared to speak.

Lilian blinked her eyes and opened her mouth wide in surprise: "Even the priests of the God of Healing are infected with the plague? Then, what should we do?"

They are obviously here to track down vampires, how could they encounter such a thing...

"Even the clergy under the crown of the wounded are infected with the plague..." Lily repeated this sentence, and the expression on her face gradually became sad.

"Do not think too much!"

Zhong Ye stopped her fantasy in time, and said seriously: "Now is not the time to despair, put on the mask you made earlier.

"Although the air in Auxerre is definitely full of viruses these days, we were exposed to the plague when we came in, but it can be delayed for a while.

"Next, whether we can save this city depends on our actions!"

After hearing these words, Lily cheered up and took out two masks from the storage box.

The mask can completely cover their faces, and the air needs to pass through the filter to enter the mask.

Just like what Zhong Ye said, the whole town is probably permeated with the virus now, and the air in the car is circulated. After they entered Auxerre, they may have been exposed to the virus and contracted the plague.

However, using this mask can reduce their contact with the outside air and minimize the reproduction and accumulation of viruses in the body.

Zhong Ye didn't need a mask. He had been exposed to the air before, and his lungs might have been filled with viruses.

The reason why he didn't show symptoms was entirely because his physique was too strong, and the virus couldn't erode his body for the time being.

It's too late for Zhong Ye to put on the mask now, but the two of them still need it.

After putting on the mask, a task popped up in front of Lilian's eyes——

[Save Auxerre: This town has been hit by an unknown plague. You who came here from other cities are the only three people in Auxerre who have the ability to move freely—just now, the soldiers guarding the city also fell down.Please use all your ingenuity and find a way to save this town! 】

[Reminder: This task is a time-limited task, if it is not completed within the specified time limit, it will be judged as a task failure]

[There is still time until the task fails - 10:32:47]

Another ten and a half hours?
After seeing the task prompt, Lilian immediately fell into thinking.

What does this 'ten hours' refer to?Refers to the time they can be active?Or is it referring to the remaining time of these plague-infected people in Auxerre?

The countdown numbers continued to jump, and when the time jumped to '10:32:40', Lilian gave up thinking.

She kept Zhong Ye's teachings in her heart, so she decided to act first instead of sitting here and doing nothing.

If you do nothing, you will usher in the worst result. Only by taking action, will you have a chance to reverse the situation.

Jumping off the carriage, he followed Zhong Ye into the church of the God of Medicine.

They tried to shake the clergymen who were lying on the pews awake. The clergymen did wake up, but their eyes were blurred and their minds were delirious.

The church of the God of Healing usually has a treatment room. Zhong Ye and the others carried several priests on their backs, bypassed the statue, and entered the second half of the church.

After pushing open several doors in a row, I finally found the treatment room.

There were also two civilians who looked like patients and two priests in the room, but they were also unconscious like the priests outside.

From the fact that none of them were lying on the ground, it can be known that although the plague came suddenly, it did not knock them down in an instant.

The same goes for the empty streets outside, every shop is closed and no one is down on the street.

"Cough cough!"

At this moment, a patient lying on the bed coughed, and then another patient also coughed.

Zhong Ye, who was putting a few priests on the hospital bed, couldn't help but turn his head, his brain was running rapidly, and he quickly got the answer.

"The god of medicine may be fine!" Zhong Ye said quickly, "The real problem is this town, because I heard coughing from those houses when I was on the street just now, and I entered the church for the first time just now At the time, I didn’t hear any coughs, and until now, these clergymen have not coughed, which shows that the protection of the God of Medicine still exists for them!”

The God of Medicine still protects churches and clergy, which is exciting news!
But then again, since the God of Healing is fine, why didn't He perform a miracle to get rid of the plague in this town?
Before Lily was happy for a few seconds, she realized this question and asked it.

"I do not know."

Zhong Ye shook his head, then changed the topic: "But I know that there are people in this town who can answer this question."

"Who?" Lily asked anxiously.

"Bishop." Lilian suddenly said softly.

Zhong Ye glanced at Lilian with satisfaction, "Yes, he is the bishop of the Medical Church!"

Since the God of Medicine is fine, and the protection he has given to the clergy and the church still exists, then, as the most devout believer in the God of Medicine in a region, is the protection of the Bishop of the Medical Church of Auxerre stronger?
The church of the medical church is not small, and the treatment room, medical material storage room, library, meeting room and medical technology research room occupy a large part.

It is undoubtedly difficult to find the bishop's office among the many rooms, so Zhong Ye and the others decided to split up and call out whoever finds it first.

Five minutes later, Lily, who was in charge of searching the left side of the second floor, called out, and Zhong Ye immediately gave up the search and walked up the stairs.

When he arrived, Lilian had already arrived, standing at the desk with Lily, reading something.

"Come and see!"

Hearing the sound of footsteps, Lily immediately turned her weapon tightly and turned around, only to find that it was Zhong Ye who was relieved.

Zhong Ye walked over quickly, and saw that the old man lying on the table was holding a quill pen in his hand, and the overturned ink flowed all over the floor.

In addition, there was a piece of paper on the table, perhaps because of the protection of the old man, the paper was not soaked by ink.

"I don't know if there are outsiders who exist. When you see these words, you should have been infected with the plague, but don't worry, we have a sacred object of our church in the base of the statue on the first floor. The sacred object can suppress the power of the plague, please use it to heal me, because all it can do is suppress, not eliminate."

The words on the paper were quite neat at the beginning, but afterward, they became crooked.

The old man probably knew that he would not last long, so he wrote this note.

However, for what reason did he not go to use the holy object himself, but pinned his hope on an outsider who didn't know whether it existed?
The water behind this plague incident in Auxerre is too deep...
