Chapter 577 A Group of People Can’t Detoxify as Well as Apa! (Red Comet Maswan Reward 1 More Update)
"You've been poisoned."
"You will feel headache, dizziness, general weakness, loss of appetite, and sometimes abdominal cramps and dry and hard stools."
"You haven't had bone headaches like those miners. That's just because you are a professional and your bones are stronger. If you stay like this, you will be like them."
Grete kept a straight face, clasped his fingers one by one, and spoke in an orderly manner.
If you say one thing, the steward's face will become whiter. If you say another word, the face will have less color...
Before that, Gretel asked the steward to gather all the miners and let them treat the miners. Although chronic poisoning is caused by pollution and detoxification can only treat the symptoms but not the root cause, it still needs to be treated!
Who knew that even this request would run into trouble. Upon hearing Gretel's words, the steward's head immediately shook like a rattle:
"Masters, it's not that I want to dismiss your words. It's really the city lord who's pressing us hard. Gather the people together, the ore production has dropped, and the workshop will ask us to compensate!"
Just kidding, he manages this mine under the orders of the city lord, and his daily task is to increase production. If the output is high, there will be bonuses; if the output is low, money will be deducted...
As for whether the miners die or whether the villagers get sick, what does it have to do with him?
There are so many poor people, with a monthly salary of two silver coins, you can recruit as many as you want!
"What? It's just a day or two of delay, and you don't even want to treat them?"
Gretel's request was photographed, and the first person to get angry was not himself, but Serreira. The silver dragon girl raised her eyebrows and shouted loudly:
"Isn't it just one day? Not even one day? They are all so sick! You-you are not human!"
"Cerela..."
Grete winked at her to reassure her not to be angry. Immediately, he turned to the steward and directly stated the conditions:
Aren't you poisoned?
Don’t you want us to treat it?
Okay, treat the miners first, and then you!
"This... Sirs..."
The steward wanted to struggle again. Poisoned? I think I'm fine! There are blue lines and yellow lines on the teeth, so what?
If you brush your teeth less and are too lazy to brush your teeth at night, your teeth will always turn yellow! Look at those miners, all their teeth are decayed, they are even uglier than me!
Seeing that he had doubts, Grete calmly counted out the symptoms on him one by one. Seeing that the other party was crumbling, he simply added a strong dose of medicine:
"This kind of poison can also damage the kidneys. If you can't detoxify, you will not be able to do it in the future~~~The children you give birth to will also have deformities~~~"
If you are a man, you have to do it! The steward was shocked, and even more cold sweat broke out on his forehead. Gretel leisurely said:
"Besides, besides lead poisoning, you also have another kind of poison, which was just discovered by the magician in March this year." He flicked his finger and pulled out the paper light curtain:
"Ordinary detoxification techniques can't remove it. It's useless if you find another healer~~~"
"This, this! Master Mage, please wait a moment, I will gather the miners immediately! Immediately!"
He bowed deeply, his head almost lowering than his knees. Then, he ran out of the house, took out a whistle from somewhere, and started blowing it desperately.
Soon, thirty or forty miners responsible for washing and beneficiating minerals lined up in three rows in front of the hut.
Cerela couldn't help but shoot an antidote first. Well, she has read the paper just now, and she probably knows what is poisoning people. Why don't she give it a try first?
The pure white light fell, and the miner at the front sighed comfortably and sprayed out a smelly gas. He immediately bent down deeply:
"Thank you, miss! Thank you, miss! I...I'm much better!"
"Gretel? Is he okay?"
Cerira turned her head. Grete stepped forward slowly and threw a [Detection Magic] first - it was clearly visible under the X-ray that the bones were still porous.
Of course, even if the toxins have been removed, it is not easy to restore the bones.
Let him open his mouth again and look at his teeth——
"well……"
Gretel sighed. It's still the same old problem, the teeth are yellow and black, and they're a mess. To accurately identify cadmium rings on such teeth...
Grete said that the diagnostic capabilities are limited and it really cannot be done.
"you……"
He opened his mouth to say, "Let me take a urine test." When the words came to his mouth, he glanced at Serila and swallowed them again. After thinking about it, he waved his hand to signal Miss Yinlong not to come over. He dragged the miner to the back of the house and gave him a cup:
"You, pee in it!"
"How...how can this be done?"
The miner's hand shook and he almost dropped the cup. That's a glass cup! glass! It's so clear and transparent that through one side of the cup, you can see the fingerprints on the other side!
These people, with all their wealth and life, cannot buy a glass cup!
"Pee if I tell you to!"
Grete urged him urgently. Urine lead and urinary cadmium levels are both ways to test for poisoning. Move faster, otherwise, Miss Silver Dragon’s curiosity——
"Grete, what are you doing?"
"Go back! Don't come over! I'll call you later!"
Grete waved vigorously at her. Miss Silver Dragon blinked her shining eyes and retracted behind the corner:
"Cut~~~"
Gretel sighed. Turning back, he glared at the miner again:
"Hurry up!"
"I, you can't pee if you look at me..."
Gretel is desperate. This shabby place doesn’t even have a toilet! Did everyone solve it in the wild?
Wait, what if he spends the night tonight?
Urging, waiting, turning away and letting the miner do his thing. After several consecutive attacks with no results, Grete had no choice but to use his trump card:
"If that doesn't work, would you like me to take a drop of blood? Just one drop will do!"
There was little resistance to taking blood. Gretel followed the method in the paper and took a picture with the identification technique, and the light flickered. In the meditation field of view, the answer was quickly given:
Cadmium in blood.
"Serila, your detoxification technique is only half effective..."
"Huh? What?"
Miss Silver Dragon quickly jumped out from the corner.
There's no use jumping out. After applying the appraisal technique, the answer is clear. Serira refused to give up and pestered Grete to release the paper and read it again, and then take a photo of the detoxification technique...
"Ugh... Why doesn't it work? Are they too poisoned? I'll do it again! Come again!"
"Or not……"
"Well, maybe you need to study the research paper and think about how to detoxify it in a targeted way?"
Gretel persuaded carefully. He concentrated on recalling the information about cadmium, shot another detoxification spell, and took another drop of blood.
This time, Serila couldn't wait to poke her head and fired an identification spell——
"Wow, why can you succeed!"
On the other side, Elder Erwin also encountered the same difficulty. Conventional detoxification techniques are effective in treating lead poisoning, but have no effect on cadmium poisoning; new toxins cannot be targeted and removed at targeted locations!
"this……"
Grete was in trouble. His detoxification technique is quite convenient for locking cadmium - a heavy non-ferrous metal with atomic number 48 and proton number 48. Soluble in acid, insoluble in alkali, oxidation state is +1, +2.
However, how to tell the teacher and explain this information to Cerela?
The magicians in this world haven’t even discovered protons yet!
But teaching them is necessary. Elder Erwin is at level nine, while Gretel is only at level six. The upper limit of mental power and the number of spells cast per day are hugely different. Not to mention Miss Silver Dragon, at least level 13...
"This... can you feel his blood? Can you feel it with your mental power? The cadmium in the blood?"
Elder Erwin and Cerela each took a small test tube and twisted it back and forth in their hands. Release your mental power, try to feel it for a while, and then cast the spell again——
"It still doesn't seem to be working."
An old man and a young man looked at each other and sighed. While he was in trouble, Apa suddenly put his head forward, opened his mouth wide, rolled up the test tube with his tongue and put it into his mouth, clicking it and biting it into pieces.
"Appa! Appa, what are you doing!" Gretel was startled:
"Appa, don't chew glass! Be careful of glass shards piercing your tongue! Be careful of infection!"
Silver Moon Deer turned a deaf ear. Click, click, click, chew up all the test tubes. His mouth squirmed, his tongue worked hard to grind it, and he swallowed it in one gulp.
Then, he walked to the stream with long legs, lowered his head and took a drink of water, and then gnawed the grass by the water.
"Appa, don't eat it! The water and grass here are polluted! It's poisonous!"
Gretel was wandering around. But the Silver Moon Deer didn't listen to what he said with his mouth; when he tried to push it with his hands, it couldn't be pushed at all...
After a few more pushes, Appa turned his head and snorted, spraying spittle all over his face.
"Apa——! Eh???"
The Silver Moon Deer has tasted human blood, tasted stream water, and tasted green grass. He stepped forward with his four long legs and walked lightly to the side of the miner. His long horns swayed and the snow-white light fell silently——
"Apa, you want to detoxify them too? Do you recognize this poison? You-"
A small needle pokes it, takes a drop of blood, and the light of the identification technique falls.
There are no traces of cadmium in the blood of the subject.
Cerela was stunned.
She, a noble dragon, is actually worse than a monster in terms of identifying toxins and casting spells to detoxify!
If this was spread back home, her brothers, sisters, relatives and friends would laugh at her for at least 1,000 years!
"So how did you recognize this thing? By tasting it? - Me too!"
"Cerilla, don't!"
Gretel quickly grabbed her. Miss Yinlong’s competitive spirit...
Apa is a deer. Whether he eats test tubes or eats grass, he is still so-so. Serila, you want to eat blood and eat grass?
Don’t look at the beautiful painting...
"Then I don't care! I can't lose to Appa! Appa knows it, and I have to learn it quickly!"
"Then calm down and give me some time to think..." Grete shook off his sweat:
"I have to find a way, don't I? Even if you can taste the poison, the teacher certainly can't! Please, give me some time..."
After some hard work, Miss Yinlong gave up the idea of drinking blood and squatted aside sadly. The slender fingers were raised, lowered, raised again, lowered again, and threw out balls of light:
Treat the lead poisoning first! Treating the same thing is the same. What if Gretel's detoxification technique cannot detoxify two poisons at the same time?
