Lord: I have a skill talent tree

Chapter 518: Investment finally bears fruit 1

In the next few days, Ethan kept waiting for news, but he didn't see any so-called letter.

That Valejo seemed to be a stone sinking into the sea, silent.

The Northland and the orcs were equally quiet. Both sides gathered their armies and stalemate at the Barron Fortress, and they just stalemate quietly.

Ethan wanted to discuss the situation with Sophia, but recently Sophia couldn't find a way to enter the depths of the soul, staring at the tree outside the window every day, ignoring other things.

Ethan couldn't help much, and didn't dare to disturb her.

And he himself had a lot of things to do. Although the Northland was quiet recently, the South was not quiet at all.

The goblins, who were originally regarded as a joke, became a serious concern in a few days.

The reason was that the troops who went to San Fran City to quell the rebellion recently found that the more they killed these goblins, the more their number increased, and it increased exponentially.

The most important thing is that they actually evolved.

Recently, several search teams were attacked by goblins, resulting in heavy casualties.

According to reports from survivors, goblin groups have evolved into individuals of human height and human armed professions.

They can use the sword energy of knights and magic.

In particular, they use mental magic, and a roar can make people lose their direction, fall into madness, and dance madly in circles.

A search team of more than 400 people was attacked by this evolved goblin, resulting in the annihilation of the entire army.

This is the largest casualty of the pacification army since entering Saint-Française.

This news finally made the South Alliance pay attention to this matter.

So the South Alliance immediately organized a larger army and assembled a large number of knights and magicians to go together to clear up.

Ethan has been very busy coordinating this matter these days.

After sending the troops out, he had some free time.

At this time, he was in the barracks to comfort the wounded who were sent back.

"What's the situation?" Ethan asked a doctor in the barracks.

The doctor sighed: "These wounded were basically hit by the goblin's magic. Although they look fine on the surface, as long as they move their heads, they will feel dizzy and nauseous.

And after standing up, their bodies can't keep balance and can't walk normally. These people are basically useless."

Ethan frowned: "What kind of magic is this?"

The doctor shook his head: "At present, we only know that it is mental magic. We have found many healing mages to see the doctor, but they are helpless."

When Ethan heard this, he called Kyle in his heart.

"Kyle, you help!"

"Master! I'm afraid I can't treat it either!" Kyle replied.

"What? You also treated it? Is this magic so powerful?"

"Master! I really can't treat it, but it's not because the magic is so powerful, but... In my perception, these wounded have no mental problems."

Hearing this, Ethan's face instantly turned cold.

"Are you saying they are all pretending to be sick?"

"No, no! Master! That's not what I mean. I can feel that they are indeed uncomfortable, and they are not pretending to be sick.

What I mean is that they may not be under the spell of mental magic.

The reason for this situation should be caused by other reasons."

After hearing Kyle confirm that they were not pretending to be sick, Ethan's face was uncertain.

He was happy that the soldier did not deceive, but sad because the soldier suffered, and worried about the unknown magic. In short, his heart was full of mixed feelings.

"Can you find out what the reason is? Can they still be saved?"

"I'm afraid there is no hope!"

Just as Ethan was communicating with Kyle,

"Huh?"

Livingston, the half-orc doctor who accompanied Ethan to visit, called out in confusion.

Living is the dean of the medical school. Ethan brought him along this time hoping that he could provide some professional advice.

After he was puzzled, he did not rush to express his opinion, but leaned close to the soldier's ear and carefully examined him. After looking at one, he went to see another.

After all the examinations, he came to Ethan and said, "Sir Ethan, they don't seem to be under a spell, but are sick."

"Hmm?" Seeing that Livingston came to the same conclusion as Kyle, Ethan asked, "What disease? Is there a cure?"

Livingston nodded, "If I'm not mistaken, they should have otolithiasis!"

"What otolithiasis?"

Livingston thought for a while and replied, "Otoliths, also known as hearing stones, are important organs that control the balance of the human body. Normal otoliths are in the utricle of the saccule in both ears.

The space we live in is a three-dimensional space. When our head moves, the otoliths are in the utricle of the saccule, and the three semicircular canals are equivalent to three dimensions, stimulating the three semicircular canals.

It makes our brain feel balanced and allows the brain to control the balance of the body.

Once the otoliths fall off, the human body will lose balance, accompanied by symptoms such as dizziness and nausea.

We call this disease otolithiasis."

Ethan seemed to understand, but he didn't, but he noticed one thing, a not-so-good thing.

"You know the human body structure very well. It seems that you have dissected a lot of people?" Ethan said in a cold tone.

Livingston didn't understand what Ethan meant, and was immediately scared and sweated.

"It's unfair! Sir Ethan, it's not what you think!

You asked me to be responsible for the affairs of the medical school, and I have always done my best, whether it is teaching or management, and I have not dared to fall behind.

The reason why I know about otolithiasis is because a doctoral graduate happened to submit a paper on this research some time ago.

Because the ideas contained therein were very novel, I studied it emphatically.

In fact, medical schools are currently treating this discovery as a topic and focusing on research. "

"He told the truth!" Catherine added at the right time.

When Ethan heard this, his expression slowed down, and then he gently patted Livingston on the shoulder.

"Don't be nervous! I don't mean anything else! I just hope you don't do anything immoral."

"Understood! Understood!" Livingston said while wiping cold sweat.

"Do you currently have a treatment plan?"

"Yes, yes!" Livingston nodded repeatedly: "And the treatment method is also very simple. You only need to give different reduction treatments according to the affected parts of the patient.

By changing the position of the patient's head, the lost otoliths can return to their original places,"

As he spoke, Livingston squatted next to a wounded man. After observing carefully, he called his assistant to work with him to adjust the position of the wounded man's head.

After a while, the wounded man showed a comfortable expression.

"Hey, it seems I won't be dizzy anymore!"

"Don't be too happy! It's just reset now. It will take at least 5 to 10 days, or even longer, to be completely fixed."

"oh!"

"Don't move!"

Seeing such a miracle, Ethan felt for the first time that the medical school money was not wasted, and it was also the first time that he had a good impression of Livingston.

It seems that half-orcs are not so annoying anymore.
