BXBX NOVEL Chapter 462 Disease Outbreak
A 4 Star Warrior had actually slaughtered a 5 Star Warrior. Moreover, the 5 Star Warrior couldn\'t even block an attack from that 4 Star Warrior.
Roman knew that his plan had failed. His army had suffered significant damage against Captain Karsten\'s forces and Noah\'s Heretical Paladins.
They were no longer in any position to attack the camp of the Glerian Kingdom\'s army.
However, what Roman didn\'t anticipate was a quick and vicious ambush by the Glerian Kingdom\'s army.
The Glerian Kingdom\'s army soon received information that the Sinyalian Kingdom\'s army had suffered massive damage. It was the perfect opportunity to ambush their camp!
Thus, after Roman returned to his camp, it was under siege by the Glerian Kingdom\'s forces.
Roman and his forces were no longer in any condition to mount up proper defenses that could defeat the Glerian Kingdom\'s forces.
It didn\'t take long before Roman had to send the order to fall back to the Zoson City!
The Sinyalian Kingdom had lost a part of its territory to the Glerian Kingdom. When the King heard this information, he was absolutely dumbfounded.
He hadn\'t expected his kingdom to lose territory even though they held a greater number of defending soldiers as compared to the attacking soldiers!
King Valliadis soon heard the reason behind their loss. It was a small party by the name of Heretical Paladins. This party managed to slaughter many soldiers and the leader of this party even killed a 5 Star Warrior. The shocking thing was that the leader of this party was just a 4 Star Warrior. Yet, he had managed to slaughter a 5 Star Warrior!
This was an unprecedented feat! Not even David Valliadis had managed to accomplish something remotely similar!
This information soon spread in all parts of the Sinyalian Kingdom. Naturally, Shun heard of it as well.
Shun\'s eyes narrowed as he heard of the rumor that a purple glow surrounded the kid who then slaughtered a 5 Star Warrior. He also learned that this warrior could also use Sword Domain.
Realizing that this was a terrifying enemy, Shun requested a rough sketch of this guy.
The soldiers who had returned from the battlefield didn\'t ignore his request. Roman personally helped the artist in preparing the sketch and sent it to Vanta City.
When Shun saw the sketch, his eyes went wide open in utter shock.
"How did this youngster end up there?! Is he the leader of the Heretical Paladins?!" Shun was taken aback by this revelation and wondered openly.
He naturally remembered Noah. He had met Noah, Sargan, and Ralph when he came to inspect the Kloras Town along with Marquis Jonas.
At that time, Noah and Sargan had begun to talk randomly and diverted from the topic. Shun had deduced that Noah was a talented swordsman based on his grip and walk. However, he had no idea that Noah would grow so quickly in just a few months!
This kind of exponential growth was just too unrealistic!
\'If this kid is in the Glerian Kingdom, then there is a high chance that his master, the Demon God, is also there! Maybe he is acting on that Demon God\'s orders!\'
Slowly, a smile appeared on Shun\'s face as he thought ahead, \'I finally found a way to track the Demon God! I can use the Heretical Paladins! If the Demon God is still alive, this kid is bound to lead me to him eventually.\'
A sickness outbreak erupted about this time in the Sinyalian Kingdom\'s Royal Capital. This was a peculiar illness.
It targeted the lungs, stomach, and heart at different levels. In the initial stages, this disease targeted the lungs.
The individual found it difficult to breathe properly. Only the strong warriors who possessed a robust Ardor could ignore this stage. In fact, this was even more dangerous for them since they wouldn\'t realize that they had caught this illness until it was too late.
In the second stage, this disease targets the stomach. The patient would lose his appetite and would experience occasional stomachaches.
Because of the loss of appetite, the patient would find it increasingly difficult to ingest food to fulfill their body\'s nutritional needs. Their physical condition further deteriorated due to that.
And finally, the third stage where this disease targeted the heart! Well, it was said that if a patient reached the third stage, he was as good as dead. He would experience a couple of heart attacks before his heart suddenly stopped beating!
The entire Sinyalian Kingdom was caught off guard as this strange disease started to spread in Mesenana City!
Even the King was quite wary and anxious as he heard multiple reports of this disease. Even a few servants working in the Royal Capital caught this disease.
The King immediately decided that it was time to leave the Royal Palace until this disease was dealt with.
The King and his ministers left immediately for their private villas and farms. These villas were located outside of cities, isolating them from affected regions.
Since the king had moved to his own villa, the Royal Guard had inevitably accompanied him and settled there as well to protect him.
They had all been carefully inspected by the Royal Physician, and only after that were they given the permission to stay alongside the king.
Spencer Russel told his wife Bianca to return to the Lewis Mansion and stay there for a few days until they found a way to deal with this disease.
Bianca agreed to her husband\'s words, but she didn\'t return to the Lewis Mansion.
She did something rather clever. She sent a message to Piero and asked him to spread information that Bianca had returned to her farmhouse near Mesenana City.
Naturally, the servants working in that farmhouse were already bribed by Bianca. They were supposed to provide her with perfect alibis.
Now that this matter was dealt with, Bianca returned to her warehouse, where she kept the genius Alchemist Liam Parker hostage.
Liam Parker had an ugly complexion as he knew that he had concocted an absolutely horrifying disease.
This disease spreads from person to person. It could be shared through the air or even physical contact.
For a 4 Star Warrior or below, it took nearly three days for this disease to enter the next stage of this cycle. That is, within ten days of encountering this disease, the warrior was bound to die.
Only warriors at the 5 Star Rank or 6 Star Rank could be considered safer as their cultivation allowed them to deal with the aftereffects of this disease.
Liam Parker had created not only the virus but also the disease\'s antidote. It was capable of treating all patients, regardless of the stage of sickness they were suffering.
There were two types of antidotes available. One was similar to a vaccination. After administering this antidote, there was no need to be concerned about this illness.
However, there was another kind of antidote that would cure the patient for a few days before the patient would require more doses of that antidote.
"Start mass-producing the powdered form of the antidote. You understand which one I am talking about, right?" Bianca instructed with a cold voice.
Liam Parker instantly understood which kind of antidote Bianca was referring to. It was the latter kind where the patients would require multiple doses of the antidote.
He asked, a little puzzled, "Are you trying to make it a business? Is that why you had me create such a terrifying disease and are now set on selling its antidote?"
Bianca snorted at those words and responded coldly, "You don\'t need to care about such matters. Just focus on the task assigned to you, and I won\'t accidentally kill you!"
Liam Parker shivered a bit as he didn\'t doubt Bianca\'s words. He didn\'t want to die yet. Thus, he decided to obey Bianca\'s instructions.
