Chapter 828: No clue
After cleaning up the pollution, Thor started the next step.
"The biggest problem with sick mermaids is that they can't survive in the Kuroshio waters like other mermaids. Such mermaids are of no use to the Tribunal." Alfonso pointed at the corals. "If the mermaids can't absorb the pollution in the red sea trees efficiently and with low consumption, the Tribunal will use more extreme methods to deal with the pollution."
After a pause, Alfonso continued, "The red sea trees protect the Nephrite continent, not the inhabitants there."
Thor understood that if the entire continent was destroyed by the Eye of the Abyss, even if most wizards could flee to other continents, it would also mean that at least one third of the resources of the entire wizarding world would disappear.
If the remaining continents have no effective means of resistance, they can only wait to die little by little.
And the fourth-level wizard will be the last survivor of this world and will perish together with the remaining remnants of this world.
The closed wizarding world has no way to escape.
Therefore, if the transformed mermaid cannot become the trash can of the Red Sea Tree, then the Arbitration Court can only change the trash can.
No matter what it is replaced with, it will bring disaster to the entire Neflet continent.
Thor removed the rotten flesh from the coral's tail and used medicine to temporarily seal the wound.
He then directed seawater mixed with Kuroshio pollution to pour into the glass tank that had once held Kate.
The mermaid Kate stood on the beach and saw the water tank. She wanted to get in very much. Unfortunately, in order to eliminate other interference factors, she could not go in to soak in the water for the time being.
While Sol was filling the water, Alfonso went over and untied the leather straps from the coral, then lifted it up using the flotation technique.
He did not touch the coral at all.
Coral looked a little flustered as it floated in the air.
Originally, leaving the water meant leaving the place that made her feel most at ease, but her curiosity about Thor and the instrument made her temporarily forget her vigilance.
As a result, it suddenly flew up, its body was suspended, feeling weak and powerless, its tail was swinging, but there was no familiar resistance.
“Ya Ya… Ya Ya…” Coral suddenly opened her mouth and screamed, looking very scared.
Alfonso had a blank expression on his face and quickly threw the coral into the tank.
There was a splash, but the corals calmed down again.
She saw the sea water around her spinning happily and then crashing into the wall of the water tank.
"Mermaids seem to have low intelligence." Thor stood beside the tank, observing silently, "But the spirit body of Coral looks... a little different."
Alfonso was standing nearby.
Although Thor had just simply sucked out the pollution from the coral, the way he used it was completely different from Alfonso's.
He was not sure whether this method could avoid subsequent pollution.
If it were possible...it would be incredible.
Alfonso glanced quickly at Thor, then returned his gaze to Coral.
A few minutes later.
"The pollution in the corals has reached the warning line for ordinary people." Alfonso continued to record.
Then, they saw that the coral's tail, which had just been treated, began to develop new rotten wounds.
"No." Alfonso's face darkened, but he felt that it should be so.
If the patients treated by Thor never get sick again, then his personal value would be too terrifying in this world that may be polluted and destroyed by the black tide.
Thor also saw the wounds on Coral's body.
The mermaid with beautiful red hair seemed not to feel the wound on her tail, or maybe she was used to it. She just glanced at the new wound on her tail and continued to walk carefully in the water to avoid being hit again.
Thor possessed the body and transformed his tentacles again to cover Coral's new wounds.
Coral thought of what had happened before and wanted to hide backwards, but because the water tank was too small, she couldn't hide at all.
This time, Thor did not clear the pollution from her body. He just checked her for a while and then removed his tentacles.
"Something has happened to her body. When the pollution exceeds the limit, her skin will ulcerate. But there is no sign of infection. Why is this disease, which is similar to genetic mutation, contagious?"
Thor had previously extracted dead flesh from corals and conducted culture experiments, but found no signs of infection.
“Isn’t contact the channel of transmission?”
Thor stood up and took Coral out of the sea.
“Again!”
Alfonso: “Hmm?”
Coral: “Ya Ya!”
After cleaning the pollution on the coral again, Thor had another sealed bottle containing Kuroshio pollution in his hand.
After the cleaning was completed, Thor carried the coral to the tank again.
However, this time, before throwing the coral in, Thor suddenly made a move. A black sharp blade flashed by and directly cut a huge wound on the coral from the collarbone to the lower abdomen.
The black blade did not deliberately avoid vital parts, and all the skin, muscles, internal organs, and bones along the way were cut into smooth cuts.
The blood spurted out immediately.
But Thor threw the man into the water tank before the blood splashed on him.
The water tank, which was not clear to begin with, was immediately muddied by the blood.
"Ahhhhhhhhhhh..." Coral seemed to finally understand the threat of death. It struggled in the water tank, and blood gushed out of its wounds more and faster.
But such turbid water conditions could not block Sol and Alfonso's sight. The two stood beside the water tank and watched the changes in the coral wounds carefully.
As time passed, rotten wounds appeared on the coral's tail again.
Thor glanced at the wound on his tail, then continued to focus his attention on the huge wound on Coral's chest and abdomen.
After a few more minutes, Coral's struggles gradually became weaker.
Alfonso spoke up.
"If you don't want to kill her now, can you please stop now?"
If they wait any longer, even if the mermaid has a strong physique, she will die.
Thor nodded and bent down to pick up Coral from the bloody water.
This time his movements were gentler. He carried the coral back to the laboratory table and immediately began to clean the wound and close the knife wound with healing magic.
Although he received medical treatment, due to the large wound, excessive blood loss, and soaking in the sea water for a few minutes, Coral's eyes rolled back and he fainted.
Thor turned around and picked up the data recorded by Alfonso. "Coral's physical data is not much different from other mermaids. The main reason for the contamination is that the activity of the spiritual body has changed."
Coral's tail snapped and it looked like it was about to wake up.
"But mental contamination still cannot explain why the decay disease is contagious."
Thor frowned. It had been a long time since he had encountered such a situation where he had no clue at all.
Alfonso walked up to Thor, noticed his embarrassment, and said, "Don't worry too much. We still have time. Even if there is really no other way, we can make up for the loss through quantity according to Roye's idea."
"No matter how many mermaids there are, if the number of pathogens reaches a certain level, the disease will spread uncontrollably, and no matter how many mermaids there are, they won't be enough to die."
Thor turned around and looked at the sea. The sea near here was a dazzling red.
It's like it was stained with blood.
"Alfonso."
"how?"
"Are there still atavistic mermaids in the sea?"
"Although most of the atavistic mermaids have been collected by me, this sea area is so large that there must be some left outside."
"I'll go to the sea to take a look." Thor said, picking up the mermaid Kate from the ground, "Let's go together."
