Nuke Miko: Chronicles of America

In the current era where "face value is justice", such a mean and vicious woman's appearance feels really unworthy.

Therefore, even though the pharmaceutical group and the government jointly put pressure on doctors, nurses and employees to worship Talona, ​​there are still strong voices of opposition.

Even the CDC could not form a unified opinion, and the major hospitals shook their heads repeatedly after hearing the news, preferring to die rather than surrender.

There is no way. In the middle and lower classes of society in the United States, the image of hospitals is already very bad, and they are regarded by ordinary people as bottomless pits for burning money.

Now that the "forced euthanasia" law for the elderly comes out, it has turned hospitals into terrifying death camps.

If American doctors are to be made to collectively worship an evil god with a poor image and notorious reputation, then the image of American hospitals may further degenerate from the gas chambers of Nazi Germany to the blood sacrifice pyramids of the Aztecs. In the future, it is estimated that it will be up to the police to arrest people and go in for medical treatment.

——In such a horrible hospital, who else would dare to come to die in such a horrible hospital, except for those wealthy people who can find private doctors to come to see a doctor?

And the social image of doctors and nurses has completely degenerated into cannibal priests wearing human skin and digging out their hearts with bare hands, with a ghoul painting style per capita!

If it really gets to this point, it is estimated that all American patients with a little bit of connections will have to run to Cuba to see a doctor.

American patients who really have no means and no money will choose to lie down as long as they can, and would rather grit their teeth and suffer than send money to the hospital!

However, if you lie down and boil like this, there is really a considerable possibility that the patient will be cured without medicine while lying down!

You must know that most of the diseases that modern humans will suffer from, as long as the infected person has a good physique and luck is not too bad, they can usually be overcome by their own immunity - the diagnosis and treatment of the hospital only speeds up the recovery of the patient The speed only eases the pain during the self-healing period of the patient.

Once "sickness basically depends on lying down" becomes the national consensus, then hospitals will become redundant facilities, causing the entire medical industry to collapse.

Therefore, even if there is pressure from the upper echelons to convert doctors and nurses across the United States to Talona as a cult, it is still very difficult.

Even if they actually agree with Talona's teachings and ideas in their hearts, it is still difficult to accept the public identity of this "cultist"!

Of course, if Tarona is not so evil and can stand in the neutral or even good camp, it is estimated that there should be more believers who are willing to convert.

But the problem is, just because the American medical industry is so desperate for money and spreading plagues, if you want to say that the medical industry is in the benevolent camp...would you believe it?

In this regard, as a voter of the Goddess of Disease, the transgender lady from Thailand... now Miss Tiefling, Abby, is naturally very worried.

Because, it's not that she doesn't have competitors... Even if she doesn't have any now, she might not have any in the future.

——The god of doctors in the DND pantheon is Talona, ​​yes, but among other superheroes and fantasy works in the United States, there are many more niche and unknown gods of medicine: so many years of games, With the accumulation of anime, movies, and novels, there will be many more unpopular priesthoods.

It is still in the early stage of spiritual recovery, and there are not many gods descending, so the pharmaceutical group eagerly wants to cooperate with Talona, ​​even if the other party is an evil god.If other gods of medicine emerge in the future, but Talona's beliefs have not yet taken root because of her negative image at that time...

Believe it or not, these ruthless pharmaceutical giants threw out the poor image of the disease goddess in the blink of an eye?Step on [-] feet?

At that time, Abby, the disease witch, may become a villain like the Harley Quinn in DC comics, and life will be very difficult.

Abby obviously couldn't accept such a bleak future—she didn't want to go to Arkham Asylum at all, let alone join the Suicide Squad!

But on the other hand, perhaps because of being outside the situation, Akiyama Hui has a somewhat different view on this.

So, after listening to the complaints of the disease witch Abby, the fox-eared witch Akiyama Megumin lazily flicked the fluffy fox tail behind her buttocks, and said slowly, "...Hey, how should I put it? Because the current situation in the American medical profession The appearance of the deputy is lacking in virtue, and the priesthood of [Disease] of the disease lady, I am afraid that there is no way to wash it away, so it can only be kept in the evil camp, and it is still chaotic and evil - just based on the American pharmaceutical giants in recent years, that kind of You can’t get order by raising the price of life-saving medicines tens of times at every turn, even if you want order?”

"...Who says it's not? Lord Wu'an commented that those people are more evil than demons." Abby smiled wryly and shrugged.

"...Fortunately, there is no unparalleled path. When fate closes a door for you, it often opens a window for you."

Akiyama Hui changed the subject, "...Although the priesthood of [disease] is no longer conceivable, the priesthood of [poison] still has potential to be tapped—Sister Abby, do you know that it is indispensable in modern agriculture and benefits thousands of families? Is the pesticide actually a kind of poison?" She said with a smile.

"……Eh?"

PS: I watched a popular science video today, saying that the lowest altitude in Wuhan is only three meters.

Hangzhou is the place where you go out to the sea, with an altitude of 13 meters.Wuhan is so far away from the sea, how can the Yangtze River not flow backwards?

Chapter 183, (Pesticide) Poison and the Good Fall of the Goddess of Disease

In the eyes of the little witch Akiyama Megumi, if Goddess Talona only has the priesthood of [disease/doctor], then she can only be an evil god.

Who made the medical profession in the United States of America, from top to bottom, really behave in such a vicious and reckless manner?

Well, if the goddess of disease came decades earlier and descended on the former Soviet Union where there was no market economy, then there might still be a possibility of being an evil god.

Even if it doesn't deflect to the good camp, at least it shouldn't be a big problem to be lawful and neutral like the goddess of wealth and trade, Vol'jin.

But what about the "free" America now... As long as capital comes into the world, blood and dirty things will drip from every pore from head to toe!

Mixing with insects like the American pharmaceutical giant, can Goddess Talona be expected to maintain a kind heart?

However, having a chaotic and evil attribute label on her body is not conducive to the promotion of Goddess Talona's packaging.

Coupled with the image of Goddess Talona, ​​a tattooed old poisonous woman, it is too bad, it is unsightly, and it is very detrimental to the spread of faith.

But fortunately, Talona has two priesthoods of [disease/doctor] and [poison] at the same time.

Although the blackening of the priesthood of [Disease/Doctor] is unthinkable in the United States, the priesthood of [Poison] can still be saved.

"...Miss Abby, in the agricultural society in the past, the greatest good deed in people's minds was to make the grain abundant. Even if people sacrifice blood for this, it is still an act of a good god. Even today, any act that can increase food production Scientists will also be admired from the bottom of their hearts.

The reason why modern agriculture after the industrial revolution can increase the yield per mu of crops to a level unimaginable by the ancients, so that human beings as a whole will no longer be in danger of famine, is to rely on water conservancy irrigation, chemical fertilizers, and improved seeds , the fourth is to rely on pesticides - and pesticides are poisons! "

Megumi Akiyama, the little witch, raised her chest and folded her belly, and put on a very impressive appearance. She talked so eloquently, "...the more developed countries are in agriculture, the higher the rate of pesticide use. And the large-scale intensive agriculture in the United States, It is absolutely necessary to invest a large amount of pesticides every year!

——In the eyes of mortals, the gods who control the concept of pesticides and protect crops from pests and diseases should belong to the good camp, right? "

"...Ah, is this going to make my lord...become the goddess of pesticides? Then use divine power to develop [the king of pesticides]?"

Abby, the disease witch, frowned and thought for a while, feeling that spraying pesticides seems to be much more "just" than releasing the plague and then curing the disease, so she couldn't help showing a smile, "...It sounds good So, should I go on to deal with Monsanto?"

"...Yes, if there were no pesticides and seeds from Monsanto, how could the American people eat so fat?" Hui Akiyama nodded.

"...In addition, daily commodities such as mosquito repellent potions, mosquito coils, insecticides, and rat poison also seem to be in the category of [poison]?"

Megumi Akiyama's cheap mother, Ms. Yukie Akiyama, thought for a while and added, "...ah, yes, there are herbicides!"

"...More than that, in modern society, the vaccine that each of us needs to get vaccinated is strictly speaking a kind of weak poison!"

Akiyama Megumi took up the conversation and said, "... Biological poisons are also poisons! But people love them!"

"...and those beauty drugs, such as sky-high skin care products and extremely expensive beauty needles, are often expensive poisons."

"...Yeah, lethal botox on the face, formaldehyde-containing perm on the hair..."

"...Not to mention those emetics, laxatives... Girls who are keen on losing weight are using these things to destroy their bodies every day!"

"...Thinking about it, modern humans really like to poison themselves?"

"...but more poisonous to other organisms, such as the poisonous paint used on the ship? To prevent marine organisms from parasitic on the hull?"

"...Thinking about it again, the iodine used for sterilization seems to be considered poison in a sense, right?"

"...Then, the chlorine gas used to disinfect tap water should be regarded as a poison—it was used in the poison gas war in the First World War!"

"... If we do the math, don't we live surrounded by poison, and we are always accompanied by poison?"

……

As everyone started discussing the topic of [poison], Abby, the disease witch, couldn't help but suddenly realized.

"...Well, what you said is very reasonable. This is a brand new way of thinking! The daily production and life of modern society, from agriculture to beauty, have long been inseparable from various and widely used poisons. People For [poison], it is no longer disgusting at first sight.

My lord can try to increase the good attributes of poisons to counteract diseases and the evil part of the priesthood of doctors..."

She said happily, "...It just so happens that my lord's teachings are more focused on [disease], but there is almost nothing on [poison]. Maybe I can write a scripture for the goddess of poison? For example, "Daily Life The Poison of the World? It would be better if it had illustrations..."

Just as [Disease Witch] Abby was thinking so much, her face suddenly changed.Then he turned his head and turned to the meeting place of the DND gods.

I saw a bright beam of light descending from the sky, it was even more dazzling than the sun in the sky!

Talona, ​​the goddess of poison and disease, is faintly visible, suspended in this thick beam of light, bearing the surging impact of majestic magic power!

There are still ethereal holy music faintly sounding all around, creating an awe-inspiring atmosphere.

The gods watching below all looked up at Talona with serious expressions, only the great demon Graz'zt ran away without a trace.

"...What, what's the matter?" Laura, the only "Queen of Beans" among the three people at the table who was not a transcendent, couldn't help but muttered when she saw this.

"...This is [Fall of Goodness]! His camp has shifted! It is moving from chaotic evil to chaotic neutral!"

The ancient fox god Yuzao jumped out of Akiyama Megumi's body at some point, squinting at Talona who was floating in the beam of light and said.

After another half minute, the huge beam of light gradually dissipated, revealing a new figure of Talona, ​​the goddess of poison and disease.

She seemed to be much younger, from an old woman with chicken skin and white hair, to a middle-aged beauty who still had charm.The ugly tattoos that originally covered her face also turned into dark circles under the eyes with smoky makeup, and paired with a black dress with pleats... Looks like a gothic rock singer?

Well, or rather, it's a bit like Harley the Harley in DC Comics!

More importantly, the magical aura lingering around Goddess Talona also changed from an evil and ominous purple-black color to a neutral off-white color.

I saw the completely new Goddess Talona happily turning around in the air, and humbly bowing to a certain ancient fox god.

"...Respectable senior from afar, thank you for your child's guidance. I hope to hear more from your experience and teachings in the future."

——This is the meaning of giving the disciple's gift to Lord Fox God!

And the nine-tailed white fox standing on the coffee table also smiled and raised its paw, "...I'm so happy!"

Chapter 184 Everyone is sick, everyone takes medicine

In Seattle in the midsummer of July, the air smells of narcotics and gun oil.

Under the scorching sun, the little witch Akiyama Megumi took off her overly heavy maiden costume, changed into a cool blue and white linen short-sleeved dress, wore a straw sun hat and sunglasses, and looked curiously at a newly opened shop across the street— — or state-run institutions.

Several construction workers in blue uniforms are using a small cart to clean up the construction waste piled up outside the door, and an electrician is adjusting the sound and lights-although at least half of Seattle has not yet restored power, this place is a priority. The security agency has already called.

Looking in through the transparent glass shop door and floor-to-ceiling windows, you can see that the interior is full of small cubicles similar to Internet cafes, but there are no computers. There are only tables and chairs in each cubicle, and there is also a large curved ruler shaped bar and glass cabinets filled with medicine bottles and sun-dried botanicals.

A brand-new Stars and Stripes fluttered outside the store door, and a row of gilt letters on the door frame was shining brightly in the sunlight.

A few light red advertising leaflets, with the title of [OPC] impressively printed on them, as well as pictures of various plant-based and chemically-synthesized narcotics.

"...National Overdose Prevention Center? OPC?"

The corners of Akiyama Hui's eyes twitched, "...don't care how you say it...isn't this a state-run drug abuse room?"

"...Yeah, the store is using hemp plants as potted plants! And to attract popularity, they even announced that they will give you a big reward for free three days before the opening,"

Akiyama Megumi's cheap mom, Akiyama Yuki, also saw veins twitching on her forehead, rolled her eyes and added, "...Look, look, as soon as I heard that it opened today, there are still addicts in the whole city of Seattle. , have all come here to line up! What kind of monsters and ghosts are these people all over the street?"

——Although the time to open the store has not yet arrived, because of the "free big rewards" that the state-run drug abuse room has opened for the past few days, all kinds of "marginal people" with strange shapes and dirty and smelly homeless people have gathered here early Outside the store, eagerly looking forward to the opening here.

There are still more than two hours before the opening of the store, and the addicts waiting in line to get high have already lined up 500 meters away from the store entrance.

Some of the guys who were impatient in the queue had already taken out their own "hemp grass cigarettes" and various other more exciting things on the side of the road. It became the "Kensington" High Street of the West Coast.

And the pungent smell brought by the burning hemp made Qiu Shanhui, who was a street away, couldn't help pinching his nose and shaking his head when he smelled it.

At this time, several clerks worked together to move out a vending machine from the "Overdose Prevention Center" and installed it outside the store.

The little witch Megumi Akiyama crossed the street curiously, and went around in a circle to avoid the addicts who were waiting in line to get free narcotics. She went to this vending machine with a pattern of hemp leaves painted in the shape of chicken feet, and found that there was a vending machine for sale. It's really not candy snacks, nor soda juice, but...

Uh, boxes of dried and processed hemp tobacco and poisonous mushrooms, small steel cylinders filled with laughing gas, pills of different shapes, bags of assorted anesthetic powders, disposable pipes and Plastic syringes, and things like paper towels and small bottles of purified water.

All the powders are packaged in small packages of 1 gram or 2 grams, and the pills are also sold in pieces, which can be said to fully consider the economic strength of addicts.

However, because the "Overdose Prevention Center" celebrated its opening today, and free medicines were given out as rewards, no addicts came to buy it for the time being.

In addition, in order to prevent any poor addict who has no money from jumping over the wall in a hurry, opportunistically, and launching zero yuan purchases of anesthetics in the vending machine, the security devices on the vending machine are extremely in place. Not only cameras and alarms are installed, but also a miniature automatic remote-controlled weapon station.

Although the caliber of the gun barrel on the weapon station is relatively small, it should not be a big problem if you want to shoot someone in the head when firing at close range.

No matter from which angle you look at it, it's very thoughtful, but...why do you always feel that this is not something normal people can do?

Could it be that my thinking is too conservative, so that I am out of tune with this trendy country?

Akiyama Hui thought so, turned and walked back to the shopping queue.As a result, as soon as they returned to the team, they heard everyone whispering.

"...The smell of this place is really bad, tsk tsk, after such a turmoil, in order to appease the people of Seattle, the first trick the government thought of was to provide free anesthetics to make people happy?" Ms. Akiyama Yuki Disdainfully said, "...isn't this too disrespectful?"

"... I think it's a good idea to do this? People who want to take drugs should let him drink enough for free, so happy that they die, don't commit crimes to raise money; people who don't want to take drugs, no one insists on taking narcotics His mouth is stuffed - this is the land of the free! Everyone should be responsible for themselves!"

Abby, the elector of Tarona, the goddess of disease, had a happy smile on her face, "...my lord is also very satisfied with this!"

"...Of course the mistress of the God of Plague you serve will be satisfied. Even if a healthy person is tempted to enter the OPC a few times, after becoming addicted, he will become a sick person, but he can't die for a while. You can Continuously provide the power of faith to the sick lady."

Qiu Shan Xuee complained, "...by then, the streets and alleys of major cities in the United States will be full of half-dead and lingering patients. Have you reached the supernatural power?"

"...You are right, but who is the culprit in this matter?" Abby said, "...my lord just made the best use of the situation."

Regarding this, the girls were speechless for a while, and then turned around in dismay, away from the crowded "Overdose Prevention Center".

But despite this, their chats were still inseparable from the issue of anesthetics along the way.
