Chapter 874 Accident-Riddled Quarantine
"worn out……"
"I'm almost exhausted..."
"I feel like my body has been hollowed out..."
Gretel spread out his limbs and lay on the soft green grass, humming. In one day, he went around the bay, visited four isolated areas, and spawned vegetation four times——
The two quarantine zones targeted the poor, producing a wide range of people in large quantities, but the quality did not need to be too high. Basically, the fence is made of ordinary grass and trees, and the flowers and plants that soothe the mind are at the apprentice level, which is strong enough;
A quarantine area targets handicraftsmen, craftsmen, and wealthy businessmen, and the scope of its creation is only one-fourth of that of a quarantine area for poor people. However, these people are physically strong and often have some magic props at the bottom of the box, so the quality of the vegetation they produce is slightly higher;
The last one was aimed at the Dutch nobles who came to repair, receive treatment and repair their ships. This quarantine area——
"Ah ah ah why are you so tired... Why are you so tired... I spawned a whole mountain of grass and thorns in the land of inheritance, and I was not this tired..."
That's because, in the Land of Heritage, most of the spell casting costs are borne by the oak trees...
Bernard silently cursed, propped up his knees, and bent down to see his boss. Not bad, my face is a bit paler, I'm sweating a bit more, and my voice is shaking a bit. But he can still moan and complain, which shows that his strength has not been completely drained.
According to the standard that the boss usually said, there should be no need to drag it to rescue.
"Boss, would you like to give you a drink of...that or something...glucose water?"
"don't want!!!"
Grete screamed as if his tail had been stepped on. Are you kidding me? In my previous life, when I was tired from surgery, had hypoglycemia, and was shaky, I drank glucose water; in this life, when I was tired from performing spells and lying down, I drank glucose water again?
ah?
Do you want me to give you a bottle of 10% glucose water and 20ml of high sugar water?
What have I done wrong to deserve to be tortured by this thing! Glucose water doesn't taste good, it's weird, and it makes your throat ache after drinking it!
Although in this world, all the glucose is produced by my mage tower, so people will not say, "Is this bottle of water included in the surgery fee..." However, it does not change the taste of it, which is disgusting!
Just as he shouted, his mouth felt cold, and then there was a "click", and the upper and lower jaws were pinched directly. Gretel was caught off guard, and when his upper and lower teeth closed, a burst of juice burst out, and the sour taste penetrated the sky——
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!"
Gretel's eyes widened and his cheeks twitched. He subconsciously wanted to vomit, but he couldn't vomit out and wanted to swallow...
"Cough cough cough cough!"
No, I almost choked in my trachea!
Grete turned over and lay on the lawn, coughing heartbreakingly for a long time. Serila squatted next to him and patted his back:
"Oops, ouch... I'm sorry, I was quick... Are you okay now? Are you feeling better?"
Gretel coughed for a long time before raising his head with tears in his eyes. Support the ground and take a few breaths:
"Serila... Where did you get this fruit... Who gave it to you... Why is it exactly the same as the one the teacher used to tease me last time..."
It wakes you up immediately when you enter it, and it has an immediate effect, and the effect of replenishing your mental power is outstanding. Even before he finished eating this piece of fruit, he already felt that his brain was clear, his limbs were strong, and he stopped sweating. What? Feeling like your body is being hollowed out?
nonexistent!
"Hehe, it was your teacher who gave it to me last time I went back to my hometown with you." Cerela squatted beside him and chuckled:
"The elder said that these fruits were carefully cultivated by him. If you eat one, all your exhausted mental energy will be replenished! Don't waste it, chew it quickly!"
"No matter what you chew, your teeth will become soft..."
Will such sour fruit corrode tooth enamel? Tooth enamel, once corroded, cannot be regenerated! Hey, maybe there is a way in this world to directly activate the treatment to grow a tooth?
No matter what, Gretel visited all the quarantine points in the bay in one day. Determine personnel arrangements, material reserves, and operational procedures, and identify and fill gaps. Finally, the day came to test the results——
"Quick! Quick, quick! Everyone move! The ship is coming!"
On the watchtower at the entrance of the village, the soldiers on guard duty shouted loudly. While shouting, he took an unknown object—perhaps a gong—or a washbasin—and banged it.
Suddenly, a group of soldiers and a group of villagers emerged from the isolation point. Under the guidance of the soldiers, the villagers moved tables, moved chairs, carried various materials, opened the water gate, and discharged water... In the specially set up kitchen, curls of cooking smoke also lit up.
There was quite a commotion. Before the work was over, a weather-beaten wooden boat was already swaying and docked at the dock.
"This ship is quite big. I don't know how many people are going to get off..."
Next to Grete, the presiding mage stood on tiptoes, stretched his neck, and looked from a distance. Grete shook his head slightly:
"It's not big, only about 100 tons. It's a big deal to hold a hundred people... At most, it's... just... two... hundred..."
His voice slowly drew out. On the deck of the wooden ship, a large group of people rushed out, walking nervously down the gangplank. A group of people disembarked, and another group, and another group, and another group...
...Well, my previous estimate of the shipping mortality rate was based on two months of maritime transport and more people needed to reach the destination. How many days does it take to sail from the Netherlands to the Kingdom of Kent?
The narrowest point of the Hall Strait is only a few dozen kilometers. It can be reached in one day with good winds and rivers. It will be a little farther to Inverness, but in any case, it will not take more than ten days?
In this case, the passenger fatality rate will be greatly reduced, so naturally it can be pretended.
Gretel took a deep breath and took a few steps forward. I saw large numbers of poor people with weathered and frightened faces being driven down like ducks. As soon as we stepped onto the trestle, soldiers came up to us and shouted:
"Go this way! Go this way! - Get in line, don't crowd, I'm talking about you!"
Pushing and pushing, squeezing and squeezing. The presiding mage hurriedly greeted him. Next to him, the priest who had just arrived at the isolation point also stood up and activated the [Fortune Observation Technique] without saying a word——
"The one in the middle of the third row! The one in gray clothes and lame on one leg!"
"The second one from the left in the fourth row! The one holding the child!"
"The first one on the right in the seventh row..."
The priest points to the head, the mage throws [Mage Trick], and the soldier is responsible for pulling people. For a moment, the crowd was crying and shouting loudly. Some people were running, some were blocking them, and some were desperately trying to get into the crowd——
The soldier responsible for pulling people shouted at the top of his lungs:
"Don't run! Don't run! These are all sick! We pull them out and treat them individually, and they can be put back after they are cured!"
No one listens to him! In fact, Grete listened to the feedback from the poor people, crying and shouting, and it was a mess. He felt that the soldiers who gave the orders did not speak the same language...
Too bad, as expected, I am inexperienced and I failed to consider the language problem. Alas, for many things, only by experiencing them in practice can you determine where your problems lie!
Gretel sighed silently. He took a few steps forward, without standing up and shouting, and quietly half-knelt on the ground. Press your hands on the blades of grass and pray silently——
After a while, a soft breeze blew from the land to the port. Wherever it went, everyone took a deep breath subconsciously and showed a calm, peaceful smile.
Grete then stood up. He threw himself a flying spell and flew to the front of the trestle, looking down from a high position. Without even speaking a word, he already received a lot of awed looks:
Being able to fly is king!
Being able to fly is power!
Even the ignorant poor people don't know that this is a unique skill for wizards above level five. A wizard of this level can kill them with a big fireball. They also know that this is a strong man who they can't afford to offend!
"Who can speak the Dutch language?"
Grete looked down, added a [Amplification Technique] to himself, and asked slowly. The soldiers and villagers looked at each other, rustling, and all shrank back.
Finally, only a little man stood up timidly:
"Sir, I know a little bit... I worked in Inverness Port and delivered water to the fishing boats coming over there. I can chat with them for a few words..."
It was related to the economy, and there was a large crowd of people on the dock, so Grete had no time to listen to him talk about the origin of this foreign language. He simply waved his hand:
"Stand up and be responsible for translating for them! - Who among you can speak the language of the Kingdom of Kent? Stand up and help with the work, and add a piece of bread to each meal!"
This time it was to the poor people of the Netherlands. As a mage, there are all kinds of spells behind him, so switching languages is always beneficial. Gretel doesn't even need to spend additional time to learn another language...
Fortunately, many of these poor people in the Netherlands were fishermen traveling between the two places, or had dealings with merchants from the Kingdom of Kent. Grete shouted, and he did not even need a heavy reward. He only spent one piece of bread and recruited seven or eight people:
"You, put that person in charge and repeat his words to your compatriots! Maintain their order!"
Someone came forward to communicate, and the crowd gradually became quiet. The presiding mage breathed a sigh of relief and quickly arranged for someone to carry the patient out and send him to a small house on the other side, waiting for the herbalist to come and see the doctor.
The crowd continued to move forward. Before it calmed down much, another area started commotion ahead. In front of the separate bathroom for men and women, an old lady with disheveled hair and torn clothes rushed out:
"Don't go in!—They're going to take off our clothes! They're going to shave our heads!"
With a crash, the crowd exploded. Those who were already close to the bathroom turned around and ran back. Those who were not yet close to the bathroom ran to both sides, to the springboard, to the boat...
"Thump, thump, thump..."
Amidst the sounds of stampeding and crying, Gretel glanced around and saw at least three people falling from the edge of the pier...
Why bother, why bother!
The water in the bathhouse is still a little hot, but the water at the beach is ice cold!
He didn't even want to be comforted at this time. Seeing a mage and a priest below each step back, he recalled the levels of these two people and pointed at them:
[Spider Web Technique]!
Control the person first, and then slowly convince him! Whether it's physical persuasion or magic persuasion, first of all, don't let me run away and trample on you, creating a bunch of cases!
