Chapter 483 483. The Will of the Plague Gods

Kassandra needs to concentrate on dealing with the One-Eyed Man, while Furber's commission on the plague is taken over by Lan.

At this point in the assignment of tasks, Lan accepted it very quickly.

Having just arrived in another world, if you can do something to save people, it is better than having to start killing people without knowing why.

Now that he had a goal, Lan En immediately started taking action.

The island of Cephalonia is not that big, and Lan En does not yet have enough local currency, which is the drachma that circulates from the city of Athens, to buy a mount.

But with the efficiency of his daily activities using [Light Body Technique], he arrived at Cavusos very quickly.

Tut tsk tsk

As soon as he arrived at the edge of this village, Lan En couldn't help but make the sound of picking up teeth.

Their actions are really quite big.

Different from the typical Aegean environment on the island of Kefalonia.

There is no trace of bright wildflowers, wild olive trees, and lemon trees.

Low shrubs and lichens have disappeared, leaving bare surface soil and traces of charred ash.

The black smoke seemed to be produced by burning too many things, covering the sky above Kausos, and even the bright sunshine of the Aegean Sea looked dim and gloomy here.

After hearing Furbo's brief description, Lan En imagined what he might encounter when he came to this village.

The worst case scenario is that he saw a group of confused and desperate patients. These people were praying towards the statues of the gods or simply praying to the sky. But other than that, they had no medical knowledge or medical methods, and were under the fear of the plague. Running around.

Now, although the scene in front of him looks decadent and gloomy, it is not bad as Lan En expected.

This village and town was cleaned up by some people who had some medical knowledge.

In ancient Greece, where knowledge was unclear and developed, this kind of "cleaning up" was anything but gentle or merciful.

But this is how human settlements fight plague.

Isolate infected people to ensure safety for the wider population and region.

It seems that ancient Greece, at least the island of Cephalonia, did have a group of people who knew some medicine.

Lan En murmured to himself.

Mentos echoed.

Yes sir, at least the sanitary conditions of human settlements on this island are better than many cities in the magical world. At least we wont step on excrement other than livestock excrement when walking on the road.

Lan En shook his head silently. Mentos's words aroused his ability to associate, and some pictures that were definitely not good emerged.

Lan En frowned and nodded, indicating that he heard it, then turned to the man in black robe and asked.

Who are you? Whats going on here?

Lan En's question was not beyond the expectations of the man in black robe. He had no intention of hiding anything, he just narrated the experiences of this village and town in a low voice.

I am the priest of the local temple, they are the guardians of the temple, and we are all people who worship the gods.

Causos has been suffering from a plague since some time ago. People kept dying and the plague kept spreading. Until finally, we had to intervene!

The gods have abandoned us, and if we want to save the living, the sick must die!

"So these..." Lan En calmly pointed at the ashes behind him, "are they all done by you local priests?"

The priest glanced at Lan En in slight surprise.

You are calmer than I thought, mercenary.

"Yes, we burned the whole village and killed all the sick before burning it. There was nothing else we could do."

The priest's voice was filled with pain.

We have spent several days and nights trying to please the gods, praying, making offerings, everything! But it was all in vain, so we had to use fire to drive away the blood fever.

"I can see that you have a heart that wants to help others, otherwise you wouldn't stop in front of this sight. But mercenaries."

The priest wiped his face with both hands in pain and let out a long sigh.

"It's useless, kindness is useless in the face of the plague! There is nothing you can do, mercenary! This is the decision of the gods!"

"And if you want to stop us, we will defend the determination of the gods with our lives!"

After the priest finished speaking, the two guards behind him involuntarily clenched the spears in their hands and stared at the tall and strong Lan En.

On one side are the begging survivors of the plague, and on the other side are the local priests who want to curb the spread of the plague even if they risk their lives. It seems that as long as either side is chosen, the other side will die.

Lan En, who was at the scene, nodded calmly.

I understand, its the will of the gods, right?

[Igni]!

There was a muffled sound of bang, and on Lan Ens outstretched left hand, a small flame was burning quietly.

Suddenly, everyone present could not help but open their mouths wide, looking at the flames suspended in the air on the palms.

Now, lets talk about what is the will of the gods, sacrifice.
