Chapter 21 Puzzles



Du Yuqi is good at treating injuries, but not at treating diseases! Especially pediatric diseases like this!

And if the problem of the new Count Ratnes is to be solved, Du Yuqi must first detoxify him, then treat his myocarditis, and finally deal with the nerve paralysis... Unfortunately, everyone has their own expertise. If this was on Earth, there would still be some hope. However, for Du Yuqi, who is good at surgery, he really can't do any of them!

Therefore, even with the most optimistic estimate, the new Earl of Ratnes would definitely not live more than three hours! And if he hadn't met Du Yuqi who carried him out of that damn hut, he probably wouldn't have even lived for these extra three hours.

Seeing the anxious, angry, and even unwilling Du Yuqi, the male host was afraid that this guy would lose his mind and do something, so he had to comfort him:

"Hey, my friend, there are always some things in this world that we can't do anything about. That's fate. Even the gods have to succumb to the majesty of fate."

After hearing this, Du Yuqi, who was like a trapped beast, suddenly felt that he seemed to have missed something crucial! But for a moment, he seemed to be unable to grasp the details. He walked back and forth in the room for a few steps, and suddenly his eyes lit up!

"Oh, right, gods... There are gods on the Arad continent! Alchemical potions don't have much effect on this child, but what about high-end magic? The disadvantage of magic is that it can't be effective on people whose vitality has been exhausted. This guy is still a baby, and the diphtheria bacteria in his body can naturally be killed by me using penicillin... There is still hope!"

Now that he saw hope again, Du Yuqi suddenly became excited and immediately said to the man next to him:

"Where is the largest sanctuary here in Chateli?"

The man was stunned for a moment and said:

"Between South Seventh Street and South Sixth Street, sir, are you going to ask for the help of the Holy Light?"

Du Yuqi looked at him deeply, and then said meaningfully:

"People who know too much don't live long."

The man's face immediately changed and he looked at him with horror.

However, Du Yuqi was not a bloodthirsty person. He found a blanket to wrap little Paul up, then carried him on his back in a swaddling cloth. After making sure that he was wrapped tightly so that he would not fall off, he planned to leave through the window again. Before leaving, Du Yuqi pointed to the still burning Ino Cathedral in the distance, implying that there was no need to say more, and then he disappeared into the darkness.

The sky gradually brightened.

However, as daybreak approached, the chaos in the entire city not only did not subside, but instead became more and more intense.

A large number of Bantu people even shouted the slogan of "independence". They felt that they had had enough of the rule of the Empire and planned to make a fortune here and then return to the Snow Region of Stone. Under such circumstances, it is not known whether it is because the entire family of Count Ratnes was murdered and the contact with the upper nobles of the Empire was cut off, the reaction of the Imperial Army was surprisingly slow. Therefore, it seems that the Empire's rule in Shatley is already in jeopardy, and the city's former peace is gone.

Du Yuqi stood on a rooftop, looking out over the city. It felt like looking down at a huge light grey chessboard. The buildings that rose from the ground were all square, which made people feel depressed. After all, this was originally a fortress, so it was full of the strictness, forests, and standardization of the military. Even when it was expanded later, it still had a very obvious uniform military style, and even the streets were named directly with numbers and directions.

Count Ratnes on his back is currently in good condition, his breathing is beginning to normalize, and the penicillin and sugar solution previously injected into his body are beginning to take effect, but Du Yuqi knows that this is only a temporary improvement, and the four words "terminally ill" are the most appropriate description of him at the moment. The diphtheria toxin accumulated in his body will make the complications worse and more dangerous with repeated resolute outbreaks until the child's life is taken away, and all this will happen within the next two or three hours.

At this time, Du Yuqi could already see the largest church in Chateli, with the cross on top shining brightly in the morning light. If Du Yuqi ran at full speed, it would only take about 25 minutes to reach his destination, but this was on the premise that no one came out to disturb him.

The cruel reality is that this temple called "Minsk" is now under siege. The besiegers are Bantu warriors and a large number of mysterious people. The Bantu people have frozen all the buildings around the towering temple, forming a circular ice and snow blockade line. Covered in silver, they can besiege and attack the Minsk Cathedral from a high position!

Fortunately, the Minsk Cathedral is no pushover, with a history of more than four hundred years, and more than six places that can be called "holy places". Fighting with the paladins, ascetics, priests, etc. within the Minsk Cathedral is simply asking for trouble.

The Paladin is originally a steel can wearing plate armor, which is extremely difficult to deal with. When fighting near the Minsk Cathedral, all light spells will be increased by 200%, but the cost and CD time will be reduced by half. If you can't deal terrible burst damage in a short period of time, it is impossible to kill the opponent!

Fortunately, after leaving the temple, as long as we are not facing undead and evil creatures, the lethality and explosive power of light spells are not strong, and the ice and snow blockade line is equivalent to the Bantu tribe’s home court, so the two sides are in a stalemate. You can't attack out and I can't attack in.

Du Yuqi had tried to sneak in before, but unfortunately, there were a large number of animal trainers among the Bantu tribe. These powerful guys were not only proficient in various combat skills, but also had equally powerful and ferocious animal companions to assist them in combat.

These animal companions have the advantage of being at home in the ice and snow blockade, and have much stronger perception than humans. Du Yuqi is not an assassin who is good at stealth and concealment, not to mention that he is carrying the dying Count Ratnis on his back?

Therefore, he was intercepted and sent back two or three times in a row. The last time, Du Yuqi found that he might have been targeted by an awakener who was much more powerful. If it weren't for his good luck, he would have almost failed to escape!

Therefore, at this time Du Yuqi could only suppress his anxiety and lurk outside waiting for an opportunity, even though the baby on his back had fainted again.
