  Chapter 236 Kindness (14)

  In a dry and open space in the tunnel of the cave, several people dressed as fishermen and crew lay on the ground, moaning and wailing constantly. Most of them were middle-aged men with distorted and painful expressions. Even though the temperature in the cave was extremely low, they were still sweating profusely.

Among the people lying on the ground, only an old man with a slightly bowed waist was relatively calm, but it could also be seen that there were many swellings on the old man's legs, and there were several black and blue dots passing through it faintly. .

  A teenager about fourteen or fifteen years old held a potion and a knife in his hands full of anxiety, and applied the potion to the ordinary people who were moaning and screaming.

   "Everyone."

  Occasionally, he will helplessly remind: "Please keep your voice down, this is a cave area, and the sound can travel far. If it attracts other monsters, it will be really dangerous."

  The blond boy is none other than Isengard.

  When the South China Sea changed, he, Master Goser, Ian, Shasha and the pirate captain were swept into the ruins by the strong wind when the ruins were opened.

  Because Master Gesai was exhausted, he had to be on top, promoting sublimation skills and body protection accessories to protect everyone.

  He succeeded, but in the final analysis it was still the first energy level, and it was not perfect, which still caused everyone to scatter, and he could only protect the unconscious Master Gesai and fell into the ruins.

  Because of the protection of the body armor, he woke up quickly, and after observing the environment, he began to try to find the exit along the direction of the wind—although he majored in fire, he also had some attainments in wind.

  The tunnel extends in all directions, deep and dark. After searching for a long time, Isengard encountered a group of ordinary fishermen and merchant merchants who were attacked by monsters before he could find the exit.

  The changes in the South China Sea have not only affected the distant seas.

  At the time of the cataclysm, large and small eddy current gaps appeared on the Odell Reef, around the Tanya Cliff, and even in the northeast sea, dragging many outsiders from ships into it, and involving many ordinary people.

  The tide is only relatively rough at the main entrance, and the small intersections in other places are quite gentle, and even some fishermen's fishing boats are not damaged.

  Although Isengard lacks emotional intelligence and is a little naive, he is not so stupid and sweet as to save people without thinking—if he can find those relatively gentle entrances, it will definitely be of great help to their current situation.

  He shot back the hideless lobster that was in a strange situation—a giant shrimp without a shell, but with a layer of tough oil on its surface. This kind of giant prawn is the main course of the top whole prawn feast of rich people in coastal cities, and the delicious shrimp oil is even more delicious, but it is hard to say who is whose delicacy at this moment.

After killing the monster one-on-one, Isengard was shocked to find that almost all ordinary people affected by the water foam sprayed out by the lobster, even Master Gesai started to have a high fever, and extremely obvious symptoms appeared on their bodies. Drums and cysts.

   "This is a parasite. Ordinary detoxification and deworming agents are not useful. Instead, they are sedatives that slow down blood flow. An anesthetic that anesthetizes nerve perception can reduce the frequency of activity of these unknown parasites."

  The boy held a potion and a knife, and dexterously shuttled among the groaning crowd, pierced the pustules for them, killed the parasites that had slowed down, burned the wound with fire, and then healed the burn with potion.

He has entered a professional state at this moment, treating everything as a bioalchemy experiment, but calmed down, and then analyzed and dealt with it calmly: "These parasites flow along the blood, but their purpose is not to spread throughout the body, but to Reach the 'brain-blood barrier' and enter the brain."

   "This is a parasite that specializes in the nervous system, so anesthetics are the most effective."

  After Esengarde's treatment, most of the infected patients improved, but they couldn't be cured. He couldn't find where the lesions were located in a short time, and even if he found them, he didn't have enough time to cure them all one by one.

  Come in front of an old man who was sweating profusely, but kept his breathing as calm as possible. The young man half-kneeled in front of him, lifted his robe, and carefully observed the swollen legs that had doubled in size.

  Master Gesai had been silently observing every move of his students. He watched Isengarde analyze the situation, prepare medicines to treat patients on the spot and conduct pharmacological and biological analysis.

  Although it was painful, he also showed a gratified smile.

  He originally thought that Yi Sen would be depressed because of his uncle's betrayal, but he didn't expect that at the critical moment, this child could still stick to his heart, always have compassion, and did not lose the basic skills of alchemy.

  —Maybe not a good nobleman...but a good student.

   It wasn't until the boy came to him that the old man returned to his original calm appearance.

   "Teacher, mobilize the source quality, suppress the blood flow in the lower body, I will deal with it."

Seriously said to Master Goser, Isengard himself is not afraid of infection - the blood of the inheritors of the eclipsed light refining dragon is a special poisonous alchemy substrate, and they themselves are a kind of alternative parasitic inheritance , almost impossible to be parasitized by other organisms.

  So he can handle everyone's illness very freely.

   "...That's right, Ethan, you're looking good now."

The old man nodded slightly, then shook his head and said: "My legs are no longer good. During the coma process, this monster-level parasite has corroded all the nervous systems in my legs. To cure it, it is better to cut it off. , and then use the regeneration potion to grow another one."

   "Is that so..." Pausing in a daze, Isengard said firmly, "...At least, I have to ease your pain, Teacher."

   "This is the blocking medicine I prepared. It can probably stop the parasite for a period of time. Other patients have responded well and there is no risk."

"Um."

  Master Gesai glanced at the crowd whose screams had slowed down, but their limbs and their own legs were swollen with cysts.

  He first frowned, wanting to say something, but finally sighed: "You saved them...may make them suffer even more."

"what?"

  Isengard, who had seen too little, was a little at a loss, but the old man who had seen too many similar situations just shook his head: "It's nothing, in the final analysis, it is also your kindness... and it may not necessarily be hopeless."

Raising his head, when the young man was injecting himself with blocking medicine, Master Gosai raised his head, looked towards the other side of the cave, and sighed softly: "I don't know what's going on with these underground ruins, there are so many terrible things here. Parasite, don't know how it maintains the colony, and what happens to other biomes..."

  Paused, he said again: "Ethan, do you still remember the direction Ian fell?"

"No."

  Isengarde thought for a while, then shook his head slightly: "At that time, the wind and waves were extremely strong, and I just slowed down to protect everyone and tried my best."

   "However, seeing that these ordinary people can survive, I believe Ian will be fine."
