Chapter 46: The Pampered Control Group of the Civilization Fault World (Part 6)
Hearing that Yu Lin was a medical student, although he had not graduated, compared to the poor medical conditions in the beastman world, Du Ye stayed with a great sense of insecurity.
The beastmen had been ravaged by poisonous insects for many years, with constant illness and pain. The continuous wars had consumed a large population, and the areas outside the main stars of the six major tribes were already in chaos.
A few months after Du Ye had stayed, a battle report came from the border battlefield. After Tangzhou had finished reading the report, he was silent for a long time, and then he took him to the royal palace.
The battle report was short, but the content was shocking.
It said that a few days ago, a strange and terrifyingly fast-spreading disease had spread on the border stars.
At first, it was just a few numbers on the battlefield. The officials who had gone to deal with it had not returned, and the only message that had come back was the shocking words “seal off the planet.”
The population on the border stars was complex and difficult to manage, and it had immediately fallen into chaos.
The border stars were located on the border of the White Bear tribe, only a few dozen jumps away from the mermen. When the battle report was received, the personnel on the planet had fled, and the situation was already a little out of control.
This terrifying disease was spreading inwards in a circle.
The sky was gloomy, and it was a drizzly rainy day. The air was a little damp.
Tangzhou said very little. Du Ye was annoyed and asked him to speak, and asked what was wrong, but he did not answer. He turned his head and glanced at the young man by his side, and the dark circles under his eyes were obvious.
The panda was very strong. He pressed his lips together and pulled Du Ye towards Sayin’s royal palace.
Yu Lin was sleeping in the glass flower room of the royal palace. Sayin was by his side, reviewing documents. The raindrops were pattering down, making a shallow sound.
Pushing the door open and seeing Sayin, Tangzhou finally spoke, and with his lips pressed together, he said, “I’ll go and deal with it. Help me protect him.”
Du Ye turned his head to look at him in disbelief.
As a king, Tangzhou was really too taciturn.
Sayin was also a little surprised. He stopped his pen and first made a shushing gesture. His silver hair slid over his shoulder, a bright patch. He first turned his head to glance at Yu Lin, who was sleeping under the flowers.
Seeing that Yu Lin was still sleeping, he raised his hand to block the jumping light outside the window, and his elbow rested loosely on the throne.
Each tribe had its own channels. The news he had received was no less than Tangzhou’s, and he also knew that the border stars needed someone who could hold the fort at this moment.
He did not object, but his silver eyes lifted slightly and swept over the pale-faced Du Ye by Tangzhou’s side.
Sayin looked at the two idiots who had been chasing each other in front of him these past few days. He had originally wanted to let out a sneer, but after a pause, he remembered that he also had a bond now, and the fingers resting by Yu Lin’s side gently clenched, and in the end, he did not make a sound.
“Okay.” he nodded, his tone placid. “I’ll watch him for you. The infection over there is serious. You be careful.”
“En.” Tangzhou nodded.
Du Ye was standing by Tangzhou’s side, and he should have been unwilling. He had not understood what was happening, but until the word “infection,” he looked at Tangzhou, and his face suddenly turned pale.
Sayin, in a white royal uniform, was lazily playing with the corner of Yu Lin’s clothes. He heard Du Ye’s dazed and stuttering question, “Infection… what infection?”
Remembering the plot of this book, his lips turned white, and he tugged at Tangzhou. “Where are you going?”
Tangzhou just looked at him silently.
He was not as venomous as Sayin, nor was he as smooth as Liyuan. He didn’t know what to say when they were parting, so he could only nod lightly and say to the person he liked, “I’m leaving.”
He nodded, and his steps were very fast. He brushed past Du Ye’s side and stepped into the drizzling rain.
He left Du Ye squatting on the clean white steps of the royal palace, in a daze for a long time.
Only when Yu Lin woke up did he hear about this.
He had slept for a particularly long time this time. When he woke up, the sky was already dark. He opened his eyes and only saw the graceful flowers above his head, and a sleep-inducing candle was lit on the table.
There was a faint fragrance in the air.
Sayin was sitting by the side, his expression thoughtful. His silver hair was all gathered behind his head, and his phoenix eyes were lowered. In the dim light, his deep features were charming and unapproachable.
He was wearing a neat military uniform, and the buttons were glinting with a cold metallic luster in the dark night, as if he were wandering on the edge of the lights. His long legs were slightly bent, and he looked ready to set off.
Seeing that Yu Lin was awake, he was a little surprised. He leaned down, and his fingers threaded through Yu Lin’s hair and ruffled it. He asked in a low voice, “Why are you awake?”
Yu Lin looked at him, a little puzzled. He closed his eyes, then opened them again, and frowned slightly. A moment later, he asked softly, “Sayin, have I been sleeping for a long time? What time is it now?”
“.” Sayin raised his hand and ruffled his black hair, turned his head away, and his gaze fell on the dim lights on the side. “Not long. By the way, I’m going out for a few days.”
Yu Lin pressed his lips together. “What happened?”
“The plague is here.” Sayin thought for a moment and still told him, succinctly.
This was a problem that had been prepared for after Du Ye had revealed the plot.
Unlike ordinary pollution, the plague spread too quickly, and it was a disaster for the beastmen with poor medical conditions.
According to the current speed and severity of the spread on the border stars, if this continued, in less than a year, there would be no more living beastmen in the entire galaxy.
The few words in this survival book had revealed a terrifying appearance in reality.
“Tangzhou is gone. What about Du Ye?” After hearing what had happened in the afternoon, Yu Lin got up and put on his shoes.
“He’s helping at the base.” Sayin’s thin lips were pressed lightly together, and his gaze swept over the sleep-inducing candle on the table with dissatisfaction, and he said in a low voice, “Can you not go? I’m a little worried.”
He held Yu Lin’s fingers and they gradually tightened.
Sayin’s tone was low. He had ascended the throne at a young age and had killed batch after batch of opponents. The young monarch of Branle Star had always been known for his ruthlessness.
But this was his partner.
So he would be afraid, and he would also be worried.
He knew the horror of this disease called the plague.
Not only was it predicted that not even one in ten would survive, but in the military reports from the front lines, every minute and every second, there were beastmen dying in painful struggles.
If not for this, Tangzhou would not have activated the first-level alert just a few hours after he had gone.
The people were restless, and the bug army had come after hearing the news. This time, he was going to hold the fort for Tangzhou.
The army was dispatched in batches, and the palace guards had all gone to the front lines. The central royal palace had suddenly become quiet.
The communicator was ringing non-stop. It was a remnant of the afternoon’s star-level meeting.
This was a crisis that concerned the life and death of all beastmen. Every race was in it, and every beastman who understood the seriousness of it was tense.
Sensing Sayin’s thoughts, Yu Lin lowered his eyes and held his hand in return.
The merman’s fingers were long and slender, as white as jade, and very beautiful. Yu Lin looked at them, and after a while, he squeezed them lightly.
He had watched the script of this world.
After Du Ye had unlocked the keywords, the plot about this world in the script had also begun to be unlocked.
The plot said that the surviving human had become the “pampered one” of the interstellar because of his rich knowledge. The plot described it this way, but the reality was very cruel.
Because this knowledge was not about romance, but about plague prevention and control.
In the original plot, the beastmen were not skilled in medicine. In the early stages of the disease, tens of thousands of people had died.
This sudden plague had been fierce, and all the tribes had been in a mess, but they had not understood.
In the end, it was the university student from Blue Star, Du Ye, who had felt that something was wrong. After investigating and confirming its infectivity and symptoms, his expression had changed, and he had confirmed that it was a plague.
At that time, not even one in ten of the beastmen had survived, and they were almost extinct. It was because of Du Ye’s knowledge that all the uninfected beastmen had said goodbye to their relatives, had retreated to the glaciers, and had sealed themselves up, and had only preserved a little of the last spark.
It was a very tragic script.
Fortunately, when he got the script, the research on the toxins had already come to an end, and the cultivation and planting of the raw materials for the medicine had also been put on the agenda, so he could deal with the disease.
The matter was urgent, but compared to the dark clouds and extreme despair in the original plot, there was still a spark of hope.
But things were developing much faster than he had imagined.
As soon as Tangzhou had entered the source of the disease, he had been trapped in it. In just a few hours, he had ordered the blockade of the surrounding planets and had cut off all interstellar networks and prying.
This was to not cause panic, but it also brought trouble. Sayin had to cooperate with him, so he planned to personally go to the nearby planet of Leit to coordinate.
“That’s it.” Sayin briefly explained the situation, and Yu Lin listened quietly.
His black hair was a little messy from being ruffled by Sayin, and it rested on his forehead. When he had his head down, he looked a little obedient.
After he had finished listening, he only said, “I’ll go with you.”
Seeing that he had not been able to stop him, Sayin frowned slightly, and was a little reluctant. Yu Lin held his fingers, and his lifted gaze was serious. “Sayin, the therapist has to go.”
So his partner, the king of Branle Star, could not say anything in the end. He pressed his lips together without a word, but just held his fingers even tighter.
Because they were in a hurry, the army had set off in the night.
It was still a constantly jumping airship. Because the situation was urgent, the speed was very fast.
Along the way, there were bug teams that had come after hearing the news, and they had been scattered by the artillery fire of the Six-pointed Star Fleet.
Yu Lin sat in the command cabin and listened to Tangzhou’s report before he had sealed off the planet.
The panda had suppressed the restless crowd at the first moment. In fact, the situation had not become more serious, but it had not gotten better either.
He had requested that all news of the plague stars be blocked from being spread. Although this had curbed the spread of the news, it had also made the six major tribes panic.
But no tribe had retreated. Even if they usually had friction with each other, at this moment, they had mobilized their armies and had gathered at Leit Star.
Leit Star was not large. It was said to be an independent star, and it was almost the size of a royal city. But its location was good, and it connected all sides.
There were too many armies, and they were each stationed on the edge of the planet. They could get supplies at any time, and they could also deal with all kinds of unexpected situations.
At this time, the benefits of knowing about the disease were revealed.
Because they had been given a pandemic prevention manual, the streets of Leit Star were filled with the smell of disinfectant and herbs, and the faint smell maintained a temporary stability.
There were not many people on the street, and they were all fully armed patrolling armies, so it was quiet.
The guarantee from the royal family and the clear treatment plan, although this planet was very close to the plague star, it had not lost control.
After being stationed here for a few days, everything was calm, and it seemed to be developing in a good direction.
However, on the fifth day after Yu Lin and Sayin had arrived on this planet, when all the armies had gone out to clean up the bugs, and only a simple defense force was left on the planet, a large-scale riot had suddenly broken out in the west of the planet.
By the time the news had reached Yu Lin, it was already a little out of control.
Yu Lin led the guards to the scene of the incident, and as he walked, he listened to the report of the situation.
The cause was that a beastman had discovered the source of the disease.
This terrifying disease, which began with the loss of senses, and then spread after local ulcers, but then gradually regained consciousness after a few days, was enough to destroy the mentality of any beastman.
So when they learned that the source of the disease had appeared in the city, the order that had been painstakingly maintained in the past few days had almost completely collapsed. Hundreds of beastmen were clamoring to leave the planet, as if by going a little further, they could be a little further away from this terrifying disease.
As the crowd clamored, despair was spreading rapidly.
The west district was originally a commercial center, and the greenery was very good. Many plants were planted on the side of the street, and feather wind chimes that had not been taken down were hanging in the windows of the shops.
When Yu Lin and his men arrived, the wind chimes had all been smashed, and only one leg of the benches on the side of the road was left, scattered on the ground.
Hundreds of residents were holding weapons and were in a standoff with the patrol team, and they were all wary of each other, and no one dared to relax.
The beastmen’s constitution was superior, and the strength of the ordinary residents was not weak. The leading male beastman had strong muscles, and once he transformed into his original form, his lethality was not to be underestimated.
Behind him, some of his hot-tempered companions had already begun to secretly sharpen their claws.
“Let us leave.” The leading male beastman had a head of red hair, and his voice was rough. He looked quite calm. “We just want to leave, to find a way to live. We don’t want to cause trouble.”
He made a request to the patrol captain, who had a furrowed brow and was slow to make a decision.
He thought his request was reasonable, but the other party had not said a word.
The red-haired beastman, Lin Tan, frowned slightly, and as if he had realized something, his gaze swept over the patrol captain, and he searched around, and finally landed on Yu Lin, who was looking at him with his lips pressed together.
Compared to the overly strong beastmen around him, Yu Lin was tall and slender, and when he was not speaking, his temperament was cold, and his long eyelashes were raised, and he had a calmness that was out of place with the surroundings.
Lin Tan frowned, looked at him, and suddenly realized something, and asked tentatively, “Who are you? Can you make the decision? Do you agree to the conditions I just proposed? We are not weak. It’s not good for anyone if we fight.”
He knew that the army was out, and the defense force in the city was not strong.
But Yu Lin did not answer this question, but just looked at him, his expression calm. He coughed lightly and asked, “Have you read the pandemic prevention manual?”
He was almost a little cold.
Lin Tan frowned. “What do you mean?”
Yu Lin said placidly, “I have observed that it takes three days for a beastman to show symptoms and enter the incubation period. And to reach the level of the patient who was discovered… it takes five days. He was discovered in the middle of this. Someone hid the news, just for today?”
Lin Tan was stunned for a moment, then frowned. He had read it once when he had gotten the manual, and he knew that what Yu Lin had said was correct.
But because the planet had been taken over by the army immediately after, and it was forbidden to go out, he could not be sure if someone had temporarily hidden their illness because they wanted to cause a riot.
Then he heard a piece of news that made his expression crack.
Yu Lin told them, “I am the one who has treated another disease, which is pollution. The… other king of Branle Star. I came to Leit Star this time to find a treatment for the new disease.”
He said, “If anyone has read the complete pandemic prevention manual, they should know that during the incubation period, any beastman who has been in contact with the patient, not a single one can escape. But according to the speed of transmission, it’s everyone present now.”
Yu Lin’s voice was cold. “The speed of the plague’s transmission is very fast. If you stay, I will treat you. If you leave, you will be instantly killed the moment you step off the planet. I guarantee it with my identity.”
Yu Lin’s tone was a placid warning. After he finished, he lightly tapped the communicator, which was emitting a rapid breathing sound. “Sayin, did you hear what I just said?”
After a long while, the merman on the other end gritted his teeth and a voice full of anger came through. “En.”
