"Do you know when these plagues began to spread?"
"The exact time is unclear, but it won't be too long. Refugees began to appear in the border area of Adus half a month ago. A week ago, refugees with obvious symptoms of illness appeared in the fleeing team. Recently, I have been trying my best to send people to the border to intercept and accommodate refugees from Busai, to prevent them from going deep into Adus and causing the spread of the plague. However, the spread of this plague seems to be very strong. The troops I sent out and some villages on the border have shown signs of infection. I am doing my best to prevent the scale of infection from expanding."
Sadie spoke to Vanya with a serious expression. After listening to Sadie's words, Vanya asked seriously.
"What are the symptoms of this plague?"
"According to reports from the border, people infected with this plague have symptoms such as fatigue, pain, nausea, lethargy, vomiting, loss of appetite, etc. The symptoms are very mild when they are first infected, but they will become more and more severe over time. In the end, they will almost completely lose their ability to move and can only lie down and wail in pain, unable to do anything. Among the first batch of patients who fled, some have already developed to this stage."
Shadi then told Vanya about the current situation at the border of Adus. The more Vanya listened, the more her brows frowned. Then she opened her mouth and asked again.
"Then can you confirm the transmission route of this plague?"
"We have only been exposed to this plague for less than half a month, and there are still many unclear points about it. The transmission route is still under investigation. There is a severe shortage of experienced medical personnel in Adus, not to mention senior medical scientists. It will be difficult for us to find out the truth about this disease in a short period of time..."
Shadi said helplessly with his hands slightly spread out to both sides. After he finished speaking, he paused slightly, and then seemed to remember something and spoke again.
"We don't know much about this plague yet, but the only thing we can be sure of is that it spreads very quickly and appeared very suddenly, which feels a bit strange.
"Oh, right, according to some intelligence... we can confirm that the Savior's Advent sect should have a relatively widespread presence in Busaimit. They also have some Beyonders who practice the Path of the Virgin Mary. But if they acted quickly, the plague wouldn't spread so quickly. Generally speaking, the Savior's Advent sect wouldn't give up such a great opportunity to preach about the Abnormal Plague, but the strange thing is that this plague still spread on such a large scale."
Sadie continued to speak to Vanya. After listening to Sadie's description, Vanya couldn't help but think deeply before speaking.
"Indeed... If it was a common epidemic, with the ability of the Virgin Mary, as long as the source of transmission could be locked, it would be suppressed and eliminated in no time, and it would not be allowed to spread to this extent... Is the current situation due to the lack of manpower of those heretics? Or is there some other reason?"
Vanya said this with an uneasy look, as if she had thought of something unlikely in her mind. Listening to her words, Shadi paused slightly, and then continued to respond seriously.
“No matter what the reason is, the situation in Busaimit is now more dangerous and chaotic than before. Although I know that Sister Vanya is fully prepared, you still have to be more careful... I feel that Busaimit may already have a very powerful force.
"If it is not necessary, you don't have to choose Bussai's as your relief base..."
Sadie reminded Vanya seriously. After listening to the other party's words, Vanya paused slightly, and then spoke seriously.
"I understand. Thank you for your reminder. But I will not change my mind. Although Busai Te is more dangerous than before, it also needs help more than before. At this time, God will not allow me to retreat."
Vanya finally said seriously. After listening to her words, Shadi first breathed a sigh of relief, and then nodded silently.
…
Time passed quickly, and soon the banquet arranged by Shadi to welcome the church delegation ended in a meaningless ceremony and politeness. After Shadi had a truly meaningful conversation with Vanya, he sent someone to send the delegation members, including Vanya, back to their residence to rest, and then he returned to his residence in Mont.
After returning to his residence, Shadi did not go to bed immediately, but stayed in his room and read silently until late at night. When the whole city was almost plunged into real darkness and silence, he put down the book and walked out of the room alone.
Without any guards, Shadi left his residence alone and came to the deserted streets of Mont. The young ruler of Adus walked quietly on the streets of his country's city, and came to the foot of a towering clock tower. Then he walked in without much hesitation. After climbing for a while leisurely, he finally came to the top of the clock tower, where he saw a familiar figure waiting for him.
"You are finally here, General. It has been a long time since we last met in Canak. You look even more like a commander now."
A man with deep eyes, high nose, windbreaker and top hat, and slightly pale skin stood on the top of the clock tower. He looked at Sadie who was coming up, smiled, took off his hat and saluted. Sadie looked at the man in front of him and continued to speak.
"Or you, Ney? Did your sect specifically designate you to contact me?"
"I am more familiar with you, sir... We here really value this meeting with you, so we specially asked me to come here.
"After all... the information you hold about Heopagus is very important to us." The man who called himself Ney said this to Shadi, and Shadi and the ancient soul in his body listened to his words silently.
