Times have changed.
Even old farmers who go to towns to sell agricultural products will say this while having a few drinks in the pub.
Times are always different, just like a confluence is different from one moment to the next.
Times always jump forward repeatedly, making it difficult for all living beings to tell what is different.
After all, only taxes and death are constant.
The survivors of Stratholme City obviously cannot pay taxes and can only hope that the Vanguard Army will help them avoid death.
Although life is said to be equal, the weights are obviously different.
The number of casualties alone was as high as 20%, and a large number of lightly and seriously injured people needed treatment.
Even if Carlos mobilized a full two hundred senior paladins and high-level priests, he still could not save the sick and wounded who died slowly.
Because of natural disasters and epidemics.
The so-called survivors of Stratholme are themselves a trap arranged by the Scourge Legion.
Those monsters that had annihilated humanity used thousands of old, weak, sick and disabled to drag the vanguard outside Stratholme.
Both the survivors and the vanguard soldiers after the fierce battle were infected with viruses and plagues.
Even though Carlos was well prepared, in addition to weapons and equipment for the march, he also carried a large amount of holy water and medicines. In the face of the huge number of patients, it would always be just a drop in the bucket.
No matter how you think about it, prioritizing the stability of the Vanguard Army is the most logical choice.
The young men had been killed when Alsace broke through the city, and the survivors who were left as bait had no fighting ability.
No, let alone combat ability, even the ability to survive is basically missing.
Although there was plenty of food, there was a serious shortage of medicine.
"Let's give it to the elderly and children first, otherwise wouldn't rescuing them be in vain?"
Many soldiers refused to drink the holy water as a priority.
This made Carlos very angry.
To be noble depends on the occasion!
Fortunately, the attack on the Cursed Sect before the outbreak of the Undead Natural Disaster was quite effective, so the plague doctors were not given more time to conduct virus research.
The natural disasters and diseases currently faced by the Pioneer Army are still chronic and curable.
Symptoms of mild infection include fever, nausea, loss of appetite, and weakness in the limbs, similar to a cold; symptoms of moderate infection include body redness and swelling, difficulty in wound healing, and vomiting; severe infection may include coughing up blood and lung qi. Symptoms such as swelling and flesh and blood ulceration.
Except for a few seriously injured people, the vast majority of severely infected people were refugees rescued from Stratholme City.
The overall situation of the Pioneer Army is not too bad. People with mild infections can basically recover by drinking holy water for a few days.
But these idiots who are obsessed with self-sacrifice...
It's like a child with a stomach for only one fruit a day who discovers a slightly rotten fruit in a basket carrying perfectly ripe fruit.
I felt so distressed that I couldn't bear to throw it away, so I cut off the broken parts with a knife and it was still edible.
So the next day, something broke again.
Peel it off and keep eating.
Eat it every day, eat bad food every day.
What the hell is this!
You can't even scold me. If you scold me, you'll get a giggle.
The Lich King succeeded, and the vanguard was trapped outside the city.
Although Carlos has powerful power of holy light, his healing spells are not effective against diseases. The essence of the Holy Light healing technique is to use Holy Light as a substitute for vitality, acting on the body itself, and has no ability to kill the source of the disease.
It is not impossible to use holy light to treat diseases, but it is very dangerous.
Because the Holy Light has never been a gentle force.
Carlos can easily eliminate the plague for Magni because Magni itself is very powerful and can withstand the damage caused to the body when the holy light annihilates the plague pathogen.
This is like the server batch processing spell list when playing a game. The power of the Holy Light needs to kill the plague virus first before it can heal the body.
The step of holy light killing the plague itself will cause harm to the patient.
It's like you have 999 health points now, and you are infected by a disease that deducts 100 health points per second. The holy light will cause 99 points of damage to you while killing the active virus, but when it is eliminated After the disease, you will be restored to 10,000 health points.
Therefore, once delayed for nine seconds, the Holy Light will not save the [dog's] life.
Just like these critically ill patients...
Carlos really doesn't have the energy to explain to a bunch of fools who don't understand the Holy Light how the patient will be reincarnated directly as soon as I send out the Holy Shock.
"You really don't know how to create water with holy light or something like that?"
Magni Bronzebeard asked confusedly. In his opinion, mages can knead bread with bare hands and make magic mineral water. Why can't paladins and priests just lift their legs and squeeze out some holy water?
"No, how could you, the Lord of Ironforge, the King of the Dwarves, and the elder of the Bronzebeard Clan, say such vulgar and ignorant remarks?"
Carlos has a really big head.
"Isn't it?"
Magni Bronzebeard didn't understand why, so he just asked because he didn't understand. How could he be so vulgar and ignorant?
"Pure water can be used as a carrier of arcane energy. This is why mages can create magic water. They use magic power to pierce the water elemental plane to create a hole. The water flow from the water elemental plane comes from this hole to the material plane. The process carries the magic power of the mage, so it is called magic water. Mountain spring water, mineral water, magic crystal water, etc. are all bluffed by those magicians."
Carlos explained.
"Oh, you know so much, so why not holy water."
Magni Bronzebeard continues to play the role of a curious baby.
"Two reasons. First, Holy Light is insoluble in water. Second, it does not exist. At least I have not found a plane that exists like the Holy Light Plane. Holy Water is not water, but homogenized Holy Light. . If you want to quickly create holy water, you need to soak the water with holy light for a long time and at high intensity. Do you understand, it is not using water to carry the holy light, but using the holy light to assimilate the water."
Carlos's explanation was praised by the surrounding paladins. He was worthy of being the king of knights. His research was thorough and he kept notes in a notebook.
"You are so strong, don't you have a big bucket of holy water when you take a bath?"
Magni Bronzebeard still didn't understand why Carlos couldn't create holy water.
"What the hell... ha..."
Carlos resisted the urge to swear.
"Magni, don't tell me that there are no priests in Ironforge. I don't know how many paladins Terenas helped you train, but I trained at least thirty for you before I went to Draenor. You Haven't you gone to the church area of Ironforge to see how the priests and paladins make holy water?"
"Well, you know, I am very busy in charge of such a big Ironforge..."
Looking at Magni's wandering eyes, Carlos understood.
"Holy water is made in batches. First, build a large enough pool with blue stones in a closed and clean space, fill it with clean water, then place the holy objects in the middle, and find a reliable one every now and then. The holy light monks took a group of coolie trainees to charge the holy objects for more than half a year. This pool of holy water can be used. If you want the quality of the holy water to be good, you have to hold on for a whole year. Even the one we are using now A batch of holy water is basically made in this way, except that I ordered the National Knights of the Royal Sect to rotate every day and compress the time to three months. Even if I make the holy water myself, I still have to soak it in the pool without sleep. One month, do you understand, the Holy Light does not dissolve in water!"
"What should we do? These injured patients can't wait for a month."
Magni Bronzebeard still didn't give up the idea of soaking Carlos in the water.
"Damn it, even if I wanted to, where can I find a closed and clean space? No, Stratholme Cathedral!"
Carlos found himself being led into the groove by the muscle rod under his hand.
Enclosed space!
Precisely because only the Great Monastery Cathedral had the financial and material resources to build a holy pool, Carlos acquiesced that the Scourge of the Undead looted Stratholme Cathedral and desecrated the sanctuary of the living.
But the holy pools are hidden deep underground, and they are still very strong enclosed spaces. Even if they are set on fire, they cannot burn there.
Holy water has a natural restraint effect on the undead, and there is no such thing as throwing two corpses and it will be contaminated.
Putting aside the ideal expectation that the Scourge of the Undead would not discover the holy pool, let's think about how much worse it would be to have Arthas have such a big hatred and resentment that he would go to such a thankless task to pollute the holy pool.
So the holy font at Stratholme Cathedral may not be dry yet.
