She said, "Hey, something seems to have happened over there, should we go check it out?"
Louis looked the little swan up and down.
Something was wrong! He felt that the little swan had deliberately led him here.
But Olivia's little face looked so innocent when she looked at him that he hesitated.
"Am I wrong?"
Isn't the little swan always in a daze?
Even if someone tricked her and told her that there were delicious foods in Fengqing Street, she might actually believe it with her simple way of thinking.
Well, he couldn't even convince himself after saying this.
Before this, because the little goose was too harmless, he had never thought about it in this regard.
Looking back now, many of Little Swan's actions in this life seem inconsistent with what is recorded in the future diary.
"Find a chance to test it out!"
At this time, Olivia didn't know that her unusual behavior had aroused Louis' suspicion.
Her red eyes blinked, with an expression that said "I'm very curious".
Louis said nothing.
Little Swan took great pains to lead him here, and he would then see what this girl was up to.
So he said, "Go and have a look?"
The little swan nodded.
However, the sincere invitations from the beauties on both sides of Fengqing Street made the blush on her face never fade away.
not good.
She was so focused on solving the problem that she forgot that she had no experience visiting Fengqing Street.
Unconsciously, she lowered her head.
hateful!
It's okay that the beauties in Fengqing Street are dressed up gorgeously, but why are the cleavages on their breasts so large?
Compared with this, she, who had a smooth journey ahead, was already beginning to feel sad.
So sad!
The little swan could only urge Louis to walk faster.
Soon, they arrived at a brothel that was surrounded by a dense crowd of people.
Louis patted a bystander and asked, "What happened?"
The good citizen of Tino said without even turning his head: "What else could it be? Someone drank poisoned wine."
"I heard that he is the child of a senior figure in the Royal Guards."
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, how could he be so fragile? He drank poison and died in Fengqing Street. I'm afraid it will bring shame to their family."
After hearing this, Louis' eyes showed a thoughtful look.
"Why does this sound so familiar?"
It took Louis a while to recall that this incident was only recorded after the most recent update of the Future Diary.
Olivia asked deliberately, "I just heard someone shouting 'Master Rhine'. Could it be Rhine Kain, the eldest son of the head of the Royal Guard, Gino?"
Someone next to him responded, "Yes."
Now it was Louis' turn to change his expression.
He shouted, "William!"
Suddenly, there was a howling of wind in the sky, accompanied by the roar of heavy objects falling, and William's figure appeared on the cracked stone brick road: "The Royal Guards are doing their business, please move aside and don't disrupt the scene."
The crowd that was originally packed tightly together instantly separated into a path.
Louis grabbed Olivia's hand and walked straight inside.
As soon as I entered, I saw a man and a woman foaming at the mouth and being pulled out of the room.
The man's face was dark blue.
The woman looked pale.
The priest called from the brothel was casting a healing spell, suppressing the two people's breathing like a candle in the wind.
Louis walked forward and said in a deep voice, "What type of toxin?"
The priest's face was covered with sweat, but he still replied: "I don't know, but it should act directly on the blood."
"Sir, if you can't help, please don't bother me while I'm healing them. My spells can't keep them alive any longer."
Louis' heart trembled.
Toxins dissolved in the blood were not easy to deal with in previous lives.
In a world where medical technology relies more on therapeutic skills, this is precisely the enemy of therapists.
Louis had previously learned about various treatments and discovered that in this world, the mortality rate of hemolytic toxins was far higher than that of blood loss from broken limbs, which was more likely to cause sudden death in a short period of time.
Ordinary adventurer teams below the paragon level, even the best priests, would be terrified by this kind of poison.
There is no other reason. Even if ordinary poisons cause the victim's limbs to necrotize or dissolve directly, priests can directly cut off the necrotic parts and use spells to forcibly heal the wounds.
But for hemolytic toxins, their real destructive power lies in constantly making the blood lose its activity.
Conventional treatments are therefore unable to cope with these toxins.
Even if he was a paragon-level priest, if he had not learned special treatments for this type of poison, he could only use spells to keep the poisoned person alive.
The imperial capital is naturally not short of such healers.
But it was clear that the two had been poisoned for some time.
By the time someone with treatment skills arrives, it may be too late to save the patient.
"Olivia, do you have any healing items that can save his life?"
"some……"
"Use it first. I'll see if I can use the healing methods from my hometown."
The little swan opened his mouth, but the words he wanted to say, "I brought the highest level healing items," were stuffed back into his stomach.
"It would be great if we could save on this expensive item."
"Anyway, the next two level items can keep you alive. If all else fails, I can use my trump card. I don't lack it."
Thinking of this, the little swan put his hands on his hips and a smug smile appeared on his face.
Today's best player must be me! Huoguo, ah Huoguo, today you are just my tool to show off my power in front of others.
Humph, if she wasn't a princess, she wouldn't have run to Fengqing Street in front of everyone without a special reason. She would have come here alone to save the situation.
Without hesitation, she took out a disposable healing item.
With a swish, accompanied by the sound of healing items breaking, a ray of magic light was released directly on the two of them.
As the blue faces of the two men improved slightly, Louis cut a big gash on the hand of Rhine, who was the most seriously poisoned.
He patted the backpack behind him, and the short Rimuru jumped directly onto Rhine's arm, which was oozing blood wildly.
"Rimuru, cooperate with me."
"Limlim!"
Louis directly reached out and stuffed his hand into Rimuru’s round body.
【Greedy Grasp】activates.
The greedy hand that no one could see gently grabbed Rhine's bleeding wound.
A weak pulling force drew a trace of blood into Rimuru's body, condensing into a small blood clot.
Louis took a deep breath.
Steel Soul Flow·Perfect Spirit, activate!
Steel Soul Flow·Pure Body, activate!
After raising his concentration to the extreme through the guidance of martial arts, Louis slowly opened his eyes.
"Rimuru, release your control over your body and share your vision."
"Limlim!"
In an instant, Louis felt himself trapped in a strange sensory world.
It seemed as if the whole world was divided into two completely different things in his eyes.
It's edible.
Not edible.
Under Louis' control, Rimuru's gaze was fixed on the pool of blood in its body.
“Rimuru, control the blood and make it swirl.”
The blood clot that was originally motionless began to move wildly.
"Not fast enough!"
The blood circulation speed increases further.
"Can't it be faster?"
Rimuru responded helplessly.
"Sure enough, Slime has its limits. Never mind, let me do it."
Louis summoned out two greedy hands again.
Guided by the opposite pulling forces released by his two hands, the blood in Rimuru's body began to circulate at an extremely fast speed.
Red blood cells, blood, metabolic waste and other various cells and substances that can only be seen clearly in the microscopic world were diverted in Rimuru's body.
If there was a medical monk on the scene, he would quickly realize what Louis was doing.
Isn't this the magic version of dialysis? Perhaps it's because of the insecurity after coming to this world.
Or maybe it was because after Louis gained a voracious desire for knowledge, he was also influenced by the desire to explore.
Louis has not been idle these days.
In addition to daily practice, he has been exploring how to use the various fragmented knowledge known in his previous life, combined with the unique power of the Star Continent, to develop various technical means.
As early as when he was exploring the ruins of the outer city, Louis had developed a set of unique techniques for him.
Split the decomposition and reshaping effects of [Metal Manipulation] to enrich combat methods.
——This move directly allowed him to successfully reach career level 4, and with the help of Rimuru, he could display exemplary entry-level destructive power and control methods.
Preserve the decomposition effect of [Metal Manipulation] for a long time.
——Even though the red earth dragon lizard was out of the range of the spell, Louis still determined its coordinates due to the residual magic in the metal. This was due to the ability to extend the range of perception.
Further tap the potential of [Greedy Ruler].
——This move allowed Louis to successfully gain the ability to share senses with Rimuru.
This ability usually appears in the magical pets that are individually contracted by spellcasting mages. The contracts of ordinary warriors do not have this ability.
…
In a sense, the diversity of Louis's thinking did give this world a little shock as a time traveler.
But he was not satisfied with that.
Who says that the abilities of professionals must be used for fighting and destruction? During the period after he and Beatrice got engaged, some of the work that a prince should do was also put on the agenda.
This kept Louis from going out for a while.
But it also gave him a lot of extra time to organize his own power system.
Including but not limited to "using Rimuru's microscopic vision to analyze the composition of his own blood."
The memory granted by [Greedy Curiosity] allowed him to have a better understanding of the composition of his own blood.
This also gave him the idea of replicating the "dialysis" operation.
You should know that the inner and outer membranes of slime are natural semipermeable membranes.
It is precisely because of the existence of this almost ever-changing semi-permeable membrane that the slime can maintain this pudding-like physiological state.
Unfortunately, the slime's control over the liquid in its body is not enough to complete the centrifugal function.
But now, because of the existence of [Grasp of Greed], his idea has become possible.
With his mental strength highly concentrated, he quickly found the culprit that was continuously destroying his blood from Rhine's blood.
Locks in toxins.
Accelerate blood circulation.
Test the rate at which centrifugal force is required to separate toxins.
Magic dialysis separation is complete.
In the eyes of everyone, Louis was like a vampire, drawing Rhine's blood and injecting it back into his body.
They didn't understand the principle, but they saw that under Louis' "healing magic", the nearly dying Rhine's dark complexion was visibly improving.
For a moment, the surroundings became lively.
"The hemolytic toxin is so easy to break?"
“Why can’t I understand this operation?”
"Hey, if high-end operations were so easy to understand, there wouldn't be only a few people who could master them."
"How many resource sites (di, fourth tone) are filled with hemolytic toxins that can penetrate the skin, forcing only teams equipped with paragon-level healers to explore them, even though there is nothing dangerous inside except the poison."
"Brother, how much do you want for this technology? I'll buy it! Isn't it okay for me to buy it?!"
"...Brother, I call you brother. Don't you find this face familiar? How dare you say it out loud?"
"Wait, this is...hiss, just ignore me."
The scene was filled with constant noisy sounds.
Below the Paragon level, there is no known technology that can remove hemolytic toxins by a single person.
In other words, what they saw now was probably one of the few [Advanced Techniques] in the entire continent that could solve the problem of hemolytic poisoning at the heroic level in all these years.
Even the priest who was maintaining the healing spell nearby began to breathe rapidly.
If it wasn't for the last bit of sanity that prevented him from putting down his work -
I'm afraid he has already rushed to Louis' side, clasped his hands together and asked for technical advice.
"Sir, Master Lai is now in stable condition. Look..."
The pastor looked at Meiji, who looked pale as a corpse, and it was not easy for him to ask Louis directly whether he wanted to save people.
The head of the brothel nearby came forward, rubbing his hands, and asked for help: "Sir, please save this idiot, and we will send the relevant reward."
Louis nodded.
I never expected to make extra money.
Little Swan, you are really my lucky star!
He started treating Meiji again.
This time, perhaps because of the practical experience, he only spent about one-third of the time cleaning the toxins from Meiji's body.
Just when Louis was halfway through cleaning, he noticed that a model-level priest had arrived on the scene.
He was a priest of the God of Glory and Justice.
He was standing in the corner, watching with great interest as Louis rescued Maggie.
William, wearing armor, stood in front of Louis and the little swan, like a solid backing, making people feel extremely at ease.
“It’s basically fine.”
Louis stopped the treatment and almost scolded the person in charge of the brothel: "What's the situation in your brothel? You can't even take the most basic precautions!"
The brothel manager said with a sad face:
"It's unfair! It's unfair!"
"Your Highness Louis, we never thought that the top beauty in our brothel would do such a thing."
"If we had known that this money-losing thing would dare to do such a thing, we might as well have sold her earlier."
Louis said casually:
"Oh? From what you said, this beautiful girl had thoughts of committing suicide before?"
The brothel manager nodded:
"Because a customer bought her, but she was unwilling, and Master Rhine had no money to redeem her. Alas, I never thought that they would drink the poisoned wine together!"
"If this matter gets out, the reputation of our brothel will be affected."
Louis nodded and asked, "Who discovered the accident scene?"
The brothel manager pointed at a staff member.
Louis smiled and suddenly said:
"William, arrest them both."
