Plague, war, famine, and the undead are the four horsemen of the apocalypse promoted by the Church of Light. Their arrival will bring about apocalyptic disasters.
The last one is that the Undead Empire firmly refuses to admit it. Their natural disasters of the undead are just a method of warfare, which are controllable and do not belong to the category of natural disasters. But whoever dares to disobey will definitely bring doom to them.
It doesn't matter whether the Undead Empire admits it or not. What matters is that everyone believes in it. Plague, war, and famine, which are juxtaposed with the undead natural disasters, are all very terrible disasters, among which the plague is the most terrible.
There was once a severe plague in a region, killing two-thirds of the tens of millions of people. All administrative systems in the region collapsed, and in the end only those closed villages and towns survived.
Since then, this area has formed a situation where closed city-states are the main body and there are many autonomous dominions. With a population of several million, there are more than 600 city-states and autonomous dominions. The population territory managed by each city lord and governor has not yet reached some A town in a great empire.
This area is now called Bird League, which means a city-state with as many bird's nests.
The cause of this political characteristic is the plague.
The Church of Light can expand in the main plane and become a major religion. The plague is the most important factor, because the power of the Holy Light has a special effect on purification, and the most effective way to deal with the plague is purification.
Clean drinking water, clothing, bedding, and living environment can all reduce the spread of plague, and holy light can also kill the source of plague. In this way, wherever there is a Church of Light, the plague can be controlled, and vice versa. out of control.
In this case, the goddess of salvation, the goddess of harvest, the god of disease, the god of healing, etc. are all useless. To kill the plague, the most important thing is to isolate and purify, control the source, and prevent the spread.
Over time, people converted to the Church of Light one after another. Those who did not convert either hid in closed areas and formed their own group, or died.
Plague, war, and famine often complement each other. Plague leads to famine, famine leads to war, and war leads to plague and famine. Once out of control, the world will be in chaos.
Anthony tried his best to suppress the famine and prevent it from getting out of control, at least not to the extent of causing famine and plague. However, it seemed to be of no use. The followers of the Harvest Goddess were infected and brought the plague to another dimension.
The more troublesome thing about plague is that it is unpredictable. No one knows what the next plague will be. Unlike war and famine, it can be predicted. Just prepare more food and equipment.
Just like now, the patient spat out a bunch of bloody stuff and then fell to the ground and died. Darkvin racked his brains and couldn't remember what kind of plague it was.
Is this a brand new plague? If so, that would be troublesome, and many people may need to die before a cure is developed.
At this time, the God of Knowledge needs to take action. Nigris came over to take a look with confidence, and soon became bitter: "What kind of plague is this? I have never seen it before."
A plague that even the God of Knowledge has never seen must be a new type of plague.
"I don't even know it. It must be the new plague. Does anyone know it? If not, I will start researching it." Nigris looked around.
I looked at Luna, Lisa, and Ramo, but I didn’t look at Ange, because this was not a farming issue, and Ange probably wouldn’t know.
"Bugs." Ange came over, took a look, and then said.
"Bugs? What bugs? Do you know this kind of plague? Go, go, don't make trouble. This is a plague, not fertilizer for farming." Nigris said angrily.
This skeleton demon was stunned. Everything was related to insects. Could it be that he was short of fertilizer again?
Ange ignored it and stepped on the footprints hard. He saw that the pile of bright red mucus changed rapidly and small dots appeared.
These little dots are very small, smaller than mosquitoes, but they are alive, swimming quickly, and then turn into crawling, crawling up from the mucus, flying up, flying less than thirty centimeters, right on Ange's Under the halo of quick death, life was exhausted and fell to the ground like raindrops.
Soon, a pile of corpses of small flying insects accumulated on the ground. Each one was as small as dust, but there were too many, and the dense pile grew higher and higher.
Nigris gasped, remembering the sand bandit who was used as an egg incubator when he met the exterminator for the first time.
When Ange slashed the sand pirate, a bunch of finger-sized eggs exploded from his body. Could this pile of bright red mucus also be eggs? Just because it's so small it looks like a blob of slime?
As the bugs continued to hatch, the pile of mucus became less and less. When the last bit was left, Ange crushed the quick-death halo.
Without the acceleration of the quick-death halo, the hatched bugs began to fly, no longer dying quickly, but began to look for fresh things.
However, Ange turned on the quick-death halo, and all the living things ran hundreds of meters away, while the ones left nearby were all stale ones. In the end, Ange fished a live fish from the waterway and threw it over.
The bug sensed a living creature and pounced on it crazily, piercing its mouthparts.
Ange came over and put his finger on the fish. After a while, the fish spit out a bunch of bright red mucus.
Nigris' expression changed drastically: "Can every insect hatch eggs? Doesn't that mean that every insect is a source of transmission?"
In the past, those creatures that were used as ovipositors had insect eggs in their bodies that were put in by exterminators. But now, any insect has the ability to lay eggs. After they spread, every living thing they sting is... An egg incubator can spread at a speed that is not comparable to that of previous insect disasters.
Moreover, the eggs are so small that they cannot even be seen clearly with the naked eye. It is easy to mistake them for mucus. If they are not burned and killed on the spot, they will hatch after a while and become a new source of transmission.
Nigris realized that the situation was not good. According to this situation, countless people who were teleported had been bitten by insects. Even if they were bitten by flying insects that were smaller than mosquitoes, no one would be affected. If you pay too much attention, many people may already have parasite eggs in their bodies.
I don’t know how many followers of the Harvest Goddess have been infected, but what about the main plane? Where famine occurs, how many people are already infected?
If you can't treat them before they spit out mucus, then the moment they spit out mucus, that's when they die.
In fact, before they vomit mucus, just by the time they look pale and have symptoms, these people's bodies have already been extensively damaged. Even if they are cured, the internal injuries are irreversible.
"What should I do? When they are in the human body, your quick-death aura cannot kill them. It will only accelerate their hatching. Is there any special medicine that can treat them? This is no longer an insect plague, this is an insect epidemic. If If it can't be cured, two-thirds of the people in the main plane may die again." Negris said worriedly.
Ange tilted his head and thought for a moment, then took out a bottle and said, "Try this."
ps: There will be more in the morning
