Chapter 108: Plague Doctor Base


As for the World Core... it doesn't have much allure for the Ancient Gods.

They lack neither time nor money.

Therefore, this group of Divine Favored possibly entered this world for the Origin Stone and some unaffected Calamity Object projections.

In the previous era 2.0, a space fragment carrying the Black Death Curse fell upon Dawn, which is likely what happened after this subspace was destroyed and fell into the Dawn Federation.

Mr. Baiyi looked outside, feeling somewhat uneasy.

This speculation is quite reasonable, and the timeline matches up.

But this also indicates that these Divine Favored can destroy this world or know how to destroy it, yet he doesn't know, which is somewhat dangerous.

He glanced at the Plague Doctors; perhaps he could destroy them first before the Divine Favored act, and then attempt to seek out the World Core...

More Plague Doctors arrived at Sunset Street, led by a Plague Doctor in a white robe, who approached with an instrument about fifty centimeters in diameter.

And on the instrument, they operated quickly, a wave of energy appeared and rapidly spread out.

Mr. Baiyi did not avoid this wave, toying with the dangerous object in his hand, a hint of black appeared in his scarlet pupils, though not prominently.

However, the Embrace of Pain in his hand began to stir, its trembling ceased, some soul tendrils emerged from behind the mask, as if probing something.

Mr. Baiyi stared at the Faceless Mask, his gaze extremely calm.

Evil Thought is Alchemy Transformation Forbidden Knowledge, inherently a dangerous object, but it wasn't a mutation from the Black Death Curse, so to prevent misunderstanding, Mr. Baiyi emitted the aura of the Light Side.

But this led to the Embrace of Pain seeming somewhat disobedient, as if wanting to resist.

Pop~

As tentacles burst from Mr. Baiyi's fingers, like countless fingers, gently stroking the mask, its soul tendrils instantly retracted, this time not even trembling, still as a regular mask.

Mr. Baiyi was satisfied, extending another hand, he pressed back each tentacle.

The Plague Doctors at the door: ....

Looking at the instrument displaying [Dangerous Object A-031], and then at what Mr. Baiyi was doing, for a moment they were silent.

The instrument wasn't broken, and the one called Mr. Baiyi the Alchemical Transformation Master was indeed not a dangerous object, but something felt off about the scene.

Is it reasonable for an A-level dangerous object to be so docile in the hands of an Alchemist? And is it reasonable that tentacles burst from this Alchemist?

Recalling the recorded oddities of Alchemical Transformation Masters, he decided to suppress his discomfort and politely said, "Sorry, Mr. Baiyi, my name is Ha Sea, Beacon Fire is now in crisis, we must be cautious."

Mr. Baiyi looked up, his pupils turned pure scarlet again, he smiled and said: "It's okay, I'm very interested in your dangerous objects here, they seem quite similar to my transformations."

Ha Sea's tone relaxed a bit, he looked up and said, "Mr. Baiyi, would you like to visit our base? You might not know, but the country is a bit unsafe at night, the Black Death Curse appears at night, and if there's nothing to isolate it, there's a high chance of contracting the Black Death Curse."

After saying this, Ha Sea paused, feeling a bit sorrowful, he said: "This curse is very dangerous, although you're quite special, a Legendary in our country contracted the curse and eventually withered and died, perhaps you should be more cautious?"

Mr. Baiyi did not refuse, he smiled and said: "Of course, it would be my honor."

"Then follow me, we'll talk more when we reach the base." Ha Sea turned, gestured, and with the Plague Doctors surrounded Mr. Baiyi, heading towards the edge of Fenghuo City.

It seemed they didn't want to get too close to Mr. Baiyi, possibly due to a -5 Charm rating, or perhaps because of the Embrace of Pain in his hand.

However, Mr. Baiyi did not mind, he observed the style of the city.

Much like Sunset Street, deserted, dilapidated, with most shop signs damaged and the shops empty, resembling a post-disaster city, but even more lifeless.

A few rats and cockroaches scurried about the streets, being the most active with no other intelligent life forms present.

Some still intact residential buildings emitted faint sounds of groaning, as if the residents inside were enduring the agony of disease.

Unable to resist his curiosity, Mr. Baiyi asked, "Are these people all isolated due to contracting the Black Death Curse?"

Ha Sea shook his head: "No, everyone who contracted the Black Death Curse died. These are plague patients, due to air pollution, the plague carries a hint of the black death's influence, making it incurable. We can't kill them directly, so we isolate them here, providing them with food periodically."

Mr. Baiyi nodded knowingly, the Extraordinary World never lacked food, only Magic Materials. So long as there's no magic involved, whether by Alchemist or Mage, they can create Extraordinary Plants for a virtually inexhaustible food supply.

Therefore, as long as order exists in this world, regardless of its potential corruption, it's rare for life forms to starve, the main causes of death are natural and man-made disasters.

The group quickly reached the West City, where a sparse number of Transcendents with dull eyes moved towards their destinations. Although there were people, there seemed to be no vitality.

The Black Death Curse descends at night, no one knows whether it will affect them, and with the highly contagious nature of the Black Death Curse, the pedestrians were intentionally avoiding contact with others.
