Chapter 252 Contagion
"Well...it seems that there is no problem."

The middle-aged woman in a white wizard robe raised her right hand wrapped in azure blue fluorescent light from Lina, sighed, and shrugged at Gallus: "It's better to say, she's fine at all. Gallus, Are you sure little Lena is sick?"

Sade said in a very relaxed tone: "According to the information fed back to me by [Detecting Soul Vitality], she has nothing abnormal except that she is relatively weak."

"Don't be kidding, Ms. Sade," Gallus said urgently, "Lena's body temperature was still very high when we were at home. Our whole family can attest to this...can you check again?"

"It's the same after checking several times."

The white-robed female wizard known as Sade frowned, and stared at Gallus with some dissatisfaction: "I will guarantee it in the name of my great wizard, and the detection results are absolutely correct... Now, instead of doubting me, level, you might as well think about whether your whole family may have hallucinations at the same time - the possibility of that is a little higher."

Hearing this, Gallus couldn't help feeling an unknown fire in his heart.

What is absolutely correct?Maybe she didn't check it properly.

Lena is definitely suffering from some kind of plague.Not only the frighteningly hot forehead, no matter the crimson skin on Lena's body or her moaning in pain, they are definitely not fake.

Gallus dared to guarantee his life.

Lina is being threatened by an unknown plague, but now the director of the medical department makes a hasty diagnosis like this, which is simply irresponsible——

"I'm sorry, Ms. Sade, please check again... Just one more time..."

Garrus bit his lip and begged Thad in a low voice: "I can confirm that Lina's pain before was definitely not an illusion... If it weren't for the medical doctor who passed by, I'm afraid Lina wouldn't have been able to survive here... ..."

But Gallus was only in the middle of speaking, but he saw Sade's gaze suddenly turned cold, and he immediately swallowed the remaining half of the words.

At this point Saad was already full of anger.

——After she said "guarantee in the name of the great wizard", Gallus stubbornly asked her to check again. Doesn't it mean that she doesn't believe that she can do anything else?

She stared at Gallus for a few seconds, and finally suppressed the anger back into her belly.

There was no movement of Sade performing the spell, and a clear blue halo appeared on her right hand again.A beautiful halo like a firefly wrapped her right hand that had begun to loosen a bit, and this serious-faced middle-aged woman pressed her right hand on Little Lina's forehead again.

She murmured, "Well, for little Lena's sake..."

"Thank you, Ms. Sade, thank you very much..."

"Okay. Lena is indeed fine, you can carry her back."

As a result, just after Gallus thanked him a few words, Thad took his hand away again.

She flicked her right hand with an almost indifferent expression, hiding the blue fluorescent light.

--So fast? !
Gallus froze for a moment.

In such a short period of time, even a golden-rank wizard can at most complete the [Detect Soul Vitality] spell, and just start searching.

I'm afraid Sade just checked Lena's physical condition hastily...

No, that won't work.

You know, there are devices to prevent transmission and detection in the more important places in the medical department... What if I take Lina back by myself and end up getting sick again at home?
If that's the case, I'm afraid it's really hard to send her back.

"Ms. Sade, the speed of your inspection...how is it so fast?"

"Who do you think I am?"

Thad's expression, which had been stern all the time, relaxed slightly.The tone of this woman who has always been serious has also eased a lot: "I have known the art of detecting soul vitality for a long time—"

"Sorry, Ms. Sade... I want you to double check... I mean, double check..."

"—enough, Gallus!"

Sade exploded immediately: "What do you mean? Don't you believe me? If you don't believe in the medical department, go find someone to treat yourself. Why are you still here?"

"No, it's not... I just want to ask, is the inspection speed too fast? After all, the detection of soul vitality is an eight-ring technique. I don't think it will be so fast even if the search is performed by a great wizard... "

"You also know that this is the witchcraft of the eight rings, Gallus," Sade laughed angrily: "Then do you know how much the witchcraft of the eight rings consumes me?"

"Ms. Sade..."

"enough."

Sade got up impatiently, and left here directly: "I still have a few tasks to complete here. Wizard Gallus, if you have nothing else to do, I will leave."

This woman, who could already be Garrus's grandmother considering her age, had never been soft-tempered.She is completely different from her work, and she is not at all like the gentle nature a medical worker should have.

However, if one were to say that she was the most outstanding pharmacist in the White Tower, her arrogance seemed to be taken for granted.

When Gallus was an apprentice wizard, he had attended two public classes of Sade.It was at that time that he became acquainted with the most outstanding pharmacist in the White Tower-but the relationship between the two of them was nothing more than that.

"Ugh……"

He sighed deeply.

Blame myself for being too hasty.

Everyone knows Madam de Sade's violent temper.Now that she has said that, it is useless no matter what she says.

But Lena...

Gallus looked at Lena, who was sleeping soundly, and his expression relaxed a lot.

Maybe Lina is really healed?sleep so deeply...

Gallus stretched out his hand and bent over the sleeping Lena's leg, about to hug Lena.

As a result, Gallus staggered and almost threw Lina to the ground.

……what happened?Lena sinks?

No, it's not... Maybe it's because I hugged her for too long just now, and my arms are sore.

He shook his weak arms, regained strength to hug Lina, and ran home.

As a result, Garrus felt a sense of exhaustion before he ran very far.

He kept panting, his breath heavy and hot.

"Cough...cough..."

Maybe it was because Lena was pressing on her chest?Gallus couldn't help coughing a few times.

I always feel a little dizzy in front of my eyes... Is it because I ran too fast before?
"No...wait..."

Gallus suddenly felt dizzy.

And can't feel my body temperature is high.But the body is strangely weak, without the slightest strength.

"This is……"

Gallus' sanity began to blur.

His right leg jerked violently, his knee softened, and he knelt directly on the ground.

Suddenly, the rough ground rubbed his knees.

He almost threw Lina out.

With the last sobriety, he insisted on putting Lina beside him, and then half-kneeled on the ground like this, losing consciousness.
