Chapter 925: Chapter 940, Panic
Myrcella squeezed into the crowd in a state of panic. She saw a middle-aged woman standing in the middle of the street.
She was wearing a flaxen scarf that covered her hair. The scarf that was used to cover her face unexpectedly fell off. At that moment, Myrcella saw the marks of festering on her cheeks.
It was not until the ruby pendant fell out of her chest that Myrcella was sure that she was the little girl’s mother!
However, the people of fragrant velvet city around them also saw the woman’s face, especially the traces of festering on her face. In the eyes of those people, she was as terrifying as the sickle raised by the god of death.
“It’s the Gray Whisper!”
No one knew who was the first to call out the name of the plague. The people on the street quickly retreated, and the street centered around the woman instantly became empty.
She seemed to have fallen to the ground by accident, and the scarf covering her face fell off. She was holding a wooden basket in her hand.
All the food in the basket fell to the ground because of the fall. The woman still wanted to pick up the things that were scattered on the ground in fear.
“Let me help you.”
Myrcella went against the crowd and squatted down beside the woman. She was stunned for a moment when she saw Myrcella, but Myrcella quickly put some food back into her basket.
Just as the woman was about to thank Myrcella, a stone flew out of nowhere and hit her head.
Blood dripped from the woman’s forehead. A golden light appeared on Myrcella’s hand, trying to heal the wound on the woman’s forehead.
However, another stone hit Myrcella’s feet. Myrcella instantly turned around and found that the people who had left a certain distance did not leave. The stone was thrown from these people in the crowd.
“People from the Frost Kingdom who brought the plague! Get Out of our country!”
Someone in the crowd took the lead to shout. When another few stones were thrown, Myrcella instantly waved her hand and knocked them to the ground.
Myrcella glanced at the crowd around her, but a feeling of guilt welled up in her heart.
The reason for the guilt was the hatred on their faces and their words, which reminded her of her past self.
In the past, Myrcella had also been influenced by the belief that demons were evil monsters in the land of the sacred religion. This was the point of view that everyone agreed with.
Myrcella saw the same thing in the people.
“We are the sacred army of the land of the sacred religion. We have been in the quarantine zone for almost half a month! This disease is not contagious at all!”
Myrcella raised her voice and shouted at the people. This was one thing that Myrcella was sure of. She did not have the protection of the Holy Light, but she had treated hundreds of patients and none of them were infected with the plague.
The excited emotions of the people were really suppressed by Myrcella’s voice because Myrcella stood in front of the woman. The determined look of this female knight was enough to make any weak person not dare to look at her directly.
However, this kind of calmness did not last long before the panic in the crowd was once again ignited by a voice.
“Gray… Gray whispers! He… has been infected by the people of the Frost Kingdom with Gray Whispers!”
This voice came from the crowd, and the group of people once again entered a state of panic.
At this moment, Myrcella smelled a smell called conspiracy. She used magic to activate her ‘third eye’.
“Judge!”
Myrcella instantly saw a figure surrounded by gray fog in the crowd. This figure looked like an ordinary citizen. He was holding a strange syringe in his hand.
After the judge was recognized by Myrcella, he wanted to turn around and escape.
Myrcella pulled out his longsword. Golden runes appeared on the blade of the sword. When Myrcella stabbed the longsword into the ground… a magic circle instantly appeared around the judge’s body, the chains formed by the light instantly bound his limbs.
“Where is the guy infected by the plague? What’s going on here?”
When Myrcella bound the judge, a group of knights in black heavy armor appeared on the other side of the street.
“City guards… This plague actually… wait, this has nothing to do with her.”
Myrcella turned around and prepared to communicate with the city guards, but these people in black heavy armor did not pay any attention to Myrcella. They directly came in front of the woman and grabbed her arm, wanting to take her away.
At this moment, Myrcella could only remove the magic that she had used to bind the judge. She turned around and grabbed the knight’s wrist.
“The source of this plague is not these people, but a group of judges hiding behind the scenes.”Myrcella’s strength far surpassed that of the knight.
“Let Go! Holy Army…”
“I have received your city Lord’s order to treat this plague. She is my patient!”Myrcella had already learned how to use his privilege.
When the knight heard that it was the city Lord’s order, he was a little hesitant. A voice sounded behind him again, causing him to let go of the hand that was holding Madam’s arm and slowly retreat to the other side.
“I asked you to treat them, not to let you leave a dangerous infected person running around on the streets.”
The city lord of this city, Sir Kenick, was standing at the end of the boundary city.
“They are innocent! The ones who really spread the plague…”
Myrcella turned around and looked behind him. The judge had already disappeared into the crowd, leaving behind another merchant who also had ulcers on his body.
“Who is it? I suspect that you are poisoning my people. Arrest them!”He did not give Myrcella time to explain. The surrounding knights rushed forward and grabbed Myrcella and the woman’s hands.
“Sir, His Majesty the King has sent a special envoy to order you to go to the Flower Square to watch a performance.”The messenger half-knelt on the ground and raised a scroll.
“The King?”Sir Kenick picked up the scroll and began to read the contents. Myrcella took this opportunity to break free from the shackles of the two knights around her and knocked down the knight who had grabbed the woman.
They had underestimated the combat strength of the commander of the Holy Army.
“Let’s go.”Myrcella knew that it was useless to explain the current situation, but if he was caught, the outcome would be worse.
Myrcella carried the woman directly. The Knights in heavy armor could not catch up with the Knights at all. They could only watch as the Holy Army disappeared at the corner of the street.
“Don’t bother about her.”Sir Kenick closed the scroll in his hand and said to the people around him, “Go to the Flower Square. I want to see what kind of performance that cowardly King has arranged for us.”
On the other side, Messiah, who had brought the woman to the alley at the corner of the street, met a soldier from his own army.
“Commander!”
Messiah had always been in the live broadcast state, so when her members discovered that she was in danger, they immediately rushed over.
“Bring her back to the church.”Messiah handed the woman to his members and said, “This city is very strange. I have to investigate what’s going on.”
