Chapter 429 Rescue

When Mike said this, the whole conference room was silent. Everyone looked at each other, and no one could say anything.

In the end, Benjamin took the lead. He shook his head slightly and stammered:

"I... I... I don't quite understand what you mean."

"Sometimes you are so silly and cute, Benjamin. Imagine if we become unknown heroes as before, then who will be the one who gets the honor of saving Liverpool?"

Benjamin still shook his head with a puzzled look.

Seeing this, Mike was helpless. He patted his forehead hard and said loudly:

"Anyway, it won't fall on our heads! Brothers! This is called good people don't get good rewards! Those in power can get a lot of praise even if they do nothing about this matter, but what about those of us who really did good things? We can only continue to hide in the sewers and be our little mice? No, I don't want my brothers to encounter this kind of experience. I want to let the glory that originally belonged to us return to us!

On the other hand, we do this not just to save your hometown. Think about it, Benjamin, there must be many wizards who have similar experiences as you, but they are not capable enough, so they can only watch their hometowns become battlefields and their loved ones fall into danger.

If we let everyone know about our deeds in Liverpool at this time, and let them know that even at this moment, there are still people willing to risk being arrested by the Ministry of Magic to save those Muggles!

Guess what they will think of us?

They will regard us as heroes! Benjamin! "

Benjamin's face flushed with excitement at Mike's words. He gasped and stared at Mike, as if he couldn't wait.

Franklin and others on the side all cast incredible eyes on him. In their impression, Benjamin rarely appeared so excited.

"I think you should have understood everything I said now." Mike tapped Benjamin's chest lightly, "Then you should set off now. The sooner you set off, the more people can be rescued. In addition, if anyone here wants to join, you can also follow Benjamin."

"Yes, President!"

Benjamin excitedly gave Mike a chest-beating salute, and then quickly left the meeting room, followed closely by several Freemasons including Franklin. As for the

remaining members in the meeting room, they also left after Mike announced the formal adjournment of the meeting.

Finally, the meeting room became quiet again, and Mike felt a little tired. He took a long breath, lay back on the sofa chair and closed his eyes.

Behind him, Penelope was silently rubbing his temples for him.

"Tired?"

Penelo's gentle voice reached Mike's ears. He slowly opened his eyes, looked at Penelo's delicate face and smiled:

"Of course, too many things have happened in the past two days. But there will be more things to come, so I can only persevere."

Hearing this, Penelo smiled and leaned close to Mike's ear and panted:

"The hot spring in the secret realm has been built, or we will..."

Penelo did not say the next words, but gently licked Mike's ear.

Mike reacted instantly. He touched Penelo's little hand and said:

"You go first, I will come in a while."

Penelo walked away with a twist, and the smile on Mike's face slowly disappeared. What

Benjamin and the others didn't know was that the reason why he asked them to deal with this matter in a high-profile manner, in addition to the reasons mentioned before, there was another most critical reason.

That is, he wanted to let the Muggle rulers know that there is still a group of people in the wizarding world who treat Muggles with a friendly attitude.

If possible, he would like to reach a certain degree of cooperation with the Muggle rulers. Of course

, all this depends on Benjamin's actions.

While Mike was preparing to go to the hot springs, Benjamin's plan to save Liverpool was in full swing.

In fact, Benjamin knew very well that with his friendship with Mike, Mike would definitely agree to his request to save Liverpool, so Benjamin had been trying to configure the antidote as early as when the death plague in Liverpool just broke out. Now, he has successfully cracked the plague and started to mass-produce the antidote.

So, in fact, what they have to do now is very simple, that is, to distribute the antidote to every infected person.

But it is not easy to complete this last step. You know, there will be all kinds of birds in the forest, and the same is true for people.

In a city as big as Liverpool, there must be some weirdos who are unwilling to cooperate.

So Benjamin decided to use the rain method to throw medicine after discussing with Soraka, Franklin and others.

This method is very common in the wizarding world, especially the staff of the Ministry of Magic's memory erasure team are very familiar with it.

Generally, when encountering a large number of Muggles witnessing the power of wizards, they will use this method to release amnesia potions to erase everyone's memory.

But the effect of this method is not very good, because although the rain spell is easy to cast, you cannot guarantee that everyone can get wet during the rain.

So Benjamin and others must also improve the antidotes and enhance their effects, so that they still have a strong antiviral effect even after evaporating into moisture.

Only in this way can we ensure that everyone in Liverpool can escape from the nightmare of the plague.

It is actually very simple to achieve such an effect, just increase the concentration of the potion in the rain.

But this requires a lot of gold galleons to buy materials. Before Mike nodded, Benjamin had no right to mobilize such a large number of gold galleons.

Now that Mike nodded, they can start to make more antidotes.

So, with the efforts of Benjamin and Soraka, before the early morning of the next day, enough antidotes were finally made.

"Huh! Finally done!" Benjamin stretched his stiff limbs and said, "Soraka, thank you, I really don't know what to do without you!"

Hearing this, Soraka also put down the antidote in her hand, turned her head and smiled:

"As long as I can help you, this little bit of hard work is nothing."

"Soraka!"

"Benjamin!"

Soraka and Benjamin called each other's names, the distance between them became closer and closer, and the burning fire in their eyes became more and more vigorous.

Finally, their bodies were about to touch each other, but at this moment, a sudden cough came from behind them.

"Cough cough cough!"

Soraka and Benjamin bounced away at a speed several times faster than before. Benjamin turned his head angrily, only to see Franklin said innocently:

"Uh, I don't want to disturb you, but... but everyone can't wait any longer, so they sent me to ask about your progress."

"Okay, okay!" Benjamin took off the surgical gloves on his hands angrily, "Tell them all to come in, we'll set off now! Go to Liverpool and do a great job!"

After these words came out, Franklin's face also showed a smile, he nodded, turned around and walked out of the laboratory quickly.

…

The next day, in the early morning of Liverpool, the sun slowly rose as usual, casting its brilliant light on this huge city.

Today is a working day, and Liverpool should be bustling with people at this time.

However, the strange thing is that Liverpool at this moment is as quiet as if someone has pressed the pause button. Not only is there no car or person on the road, but even all the shops and apartments along the street are closed.

In this city today, the only things that are still moving around freely, apart from the garbage flying in the wind, are probably the stray animals.

In a high-rise apartment, a tall white man is holding his seven-year-old daughter in front of the French window, overlooking this hopeless city.

The little girl in the man's arms has soft flaxen long hair, which is very cute.

But at this moment, her delicate face is filled with a dead air, and under her fair skin, there are many brown objects constantly flowing.

The little girl looks out the window at the street covered with sunshine, and reaches out her hand eagerly.

However, this tiny movement made her sweat as if she had exhausted all her strength.

The white man was looking at his weak daughter with a worried look on his face.

Just a month ago, a mysterious plague broke out in the city. After a short incubation period, the skin of the infected people would slowly turn brown, and when the skin of the patient's body completely changed color, he would die.

On that day, the local TV station began to ask everyone not to go out. But no one paid any attention to them at all. No one took it

seriously. After all, living in a modern city, they are used to doing their own thing and will not stay indoors because of your small warning.

Almost everyone firmly believed that this was just a small flu and would soon pass, but it turned out that they were wrong.

The plague quickly swept across Liverpool. To this day, people don't even know how the plague spreads. They just know that if they have contact with the sick, they will basically get sick 100%.

Panic began to spread.

Everyone first went out to the supermarket to buy and stockpile supplies, but this behavior accelerated the spread of the plague. When the supplies in the supermarket were sold out, everyone finally listened to the advice of the TV station and stayed at home.

Of course, there are still many people who don't believe the TV station's nonsense. They began to try to escape the city, but without exception, they all failed.

Because the government has stationed bands at every intersection leaving the city, all those who want to pass will be persuaded to return, and those who are ineffective will be taken coercive measures.

Yes, coercive measures, this is the TV station's rhetoric, but looking at the desperate expression of the beautiful and dignified female host on TV when she said this word, it is difficult for the white man to convince himself that those who tried to resist can still come back alive.

There are many people as smart as him. At this time, everyone understands one thing, that is, the government has given up on them!

Everyone, completely desperate.

At this time, the mob appeared.

This group of people who are not afraid of death are venting wildly on the street. They smash everything that can be smashed and robbed all the stores that can be robbed.

The white man and his daughter watched all this in the apartment.

But they soon discovered that the thugs had also disappeared.

The white man speculated that they should have all been infected with the plague and died.

He was quite happy when he came to this conclusion, but soon he was no longer happy, because he was surprised to find that some brown spots slowly appeared under his daughter's skin!

He knew very well that his daughter was infected, and he who lived with her day and night must have been infected as well. He

was desperate, and he began to smash everything in the apartment, the TV, refrigerator, wardrobe, sofa...

All of these became victims of his violent venting, and just when he was about to collapse completely, looking at his daughter's horrified eyes, he finally calmed down.

He picked up his daughter and stood in front of the window to watch the sunrise as usual.

If nothing unexpected happens, this may be the last sunrise they watch together, because the mortality rate of this mysterious plague is extremely high. Once the disease occurs, the patient will basically die within a day.

He wants to accompany his daughter quietly for the last time, and after his daughter leaves, he may end his life in another way.

Thinking of this, a miserable smile appeared on the white man's face.

At this moment, the little girl in his arms screamed.

The man immediately woke up from the painful memories. He looked at his daughter nervously, but was surprised to find that the originally bright sunshine outside the huge French window had completely disappeared. Dark clouds rolled over the sky, and it looked like it was going to rain soon!

The white man breathed a sigh of relief. He was not surprised by the sudden change in weather. You know, this is Ying Country, and it is still summer. It is not surprising that the weather has changed so drastically.

But his daughter was obviously very interested in this weather change. She stretched out her hands to support the glass, her big eyes full of curiosity.

Soon, raindrops fell.

Unlike the common showers in summer, this was a downpour, with dense rain curtains almost connecting into one piece in the sky, as if God accidentally knocked over his kettle.

As the rain got heavier, the little girl's reaction became more intense.

She pulled the window handle hard, trying to open the window, but she was too weak, which resulted in her being unable to open the window at all.

The white man witnessed all this, struggling in his heart, and finally, he made up his mind.

Since it was the last day, he might as well fulfill all the wishes of his child!

Thinking of this, the man gritted his teeth and opened the heavy glass door!
