4 weeks had gone by, and Landon had finally reached Ngum City.

Of course, he had separated with Beri and his team a week ago at Zhuli City.

Ngum city was also known as the city of ill-luck.

Too many people within the city died every day, causing its population to constantly plummet down.

Looking at the streets, compared to all the other cities, as well as even villages..... one would think that this place was a massive dumpster instead.

It seemed like the people here had given up and resigned their fates to death.

If not, why would anyone continuously live with so much dirt without even bothering to clean it up?

Passing through the city's streets, Landon and his men could tell from the single glance how bad the hygienic conditions of this place were.

The people had constant boils, pimples and rashes all over their bodies all year round.

And for the fact that they liked with so much dirt all around them, it was no wonder that they would have such bad skin conditions.

.

As they moved, the people on the streets avoided them like the plague.

And from the looks of it, it was clear that these people didn't see strangers very often.

Hence one could tell that they were very shocked to see Landon and his men here.

One should know that the only person who was allowed to leave the town, were the government officials.

Because these people looked like they constantly carried diseases, they were basically quarantined for the rest of their lives.

The Caronian government had no choice but to quarantine the city, as the other villages, cities and towns around the place had gone into a full riot decades ago.

It's been over 300 years since the quarantine law had been passed out.

And ever since then, these people's conditions had continuously grown worse throughout the years.

And one couldn't truly blame the people for rioting, as many Caronian plaques had usually started from this small city.

But even with the quarantine law being passed out, there were always some people who disobeyed the laws.

Some residents usually sneaked in and out of the city, as they wanted to see the world other than their city.

Being trapped in the city all their lives, really made most of them feel like cavemen.

So when they saw Landon and his crew move through the streets, they were both curious and afraid.

Anyway, the gang continued their journey forward... until they reached the city Lord's mansion.

.

"Welcome your majesty, Landon," said the city lord, who immediately knelt down when he finally confirmed their identities.

As a government official, he was allowed to leave the city whenever he felt like it.

So how could he not have heard about Baymard?

In addition to that, Landon also carried the Caronian royal seal.... which could only be given out to the current king or queen of Carona.

So for sure, he was fully convinced of Landon's identity.

The City Lord was a lean and fit man, who wasn't as burly or built as must of the men that Landon had seen in powerful positions.

His name was Mason Bail.

Mason looked at the majestic people before him and felt that he was too lucky.

When he last visited the Capital, many of his friends had dreamt about meeting Landon face to face.

Of course he never dared to dream about seeing Landon, as he knew that he was too busy in Ngum city to ever visit Baymard anytime soon.

But who would've known that his majesty Landon would come to his city instead?

"Your majesty!

I'll get someone to ready the guest rooms immediately.

As for food, you don't need to worry about eating any disease infected food here.... since we grow our own food in the royal gardens instead.

Your majesty!

What do you need help with?

Do you need me to assist you right now?"

"_"

Mason immediately became a chatterbox from excitement, as he constantly watched Landon in awe.

"Calm down City lord Mason.

You see..... we are here on an urgent mission."

Mason looked at Landon in a puzzled manner.

Urgent mission?

Landon looked at Mason's confused face and smiled.

And after an hour and a half, Mason had gotten his answer..... as well as what role he would be playing in the mission.

After all, this was a city..... and Landon needed all the help he could get, so as to cover more grounds.

.

"All doctors and nurses should immediately set up the equipment within one of the halls given to us.... that place will be your new laboratory for the next few months.

Of course, use 4 other halls for treating the sick, as well as consultations.

Out of those 4 halls, use the mattresses that we brought and place them in 3 of those halls for the sick.

And as planned previously, all doctors and nurses will work in different groups: those in charge of treating the patients, those In charge of sanitizing and educating the people, those in charge researching u0026 cure finding.

Of course once we know the causes, as well as what sort of antibiotics and other medical substances and properties needed in fighting the disease.... then some of you will also be in charge of going back to Baymard and relaying what is needed for drug production too.

As for now, I need everyone to do their jobs and check for any signs of the Shinjeb disease now.

Is that understood?"

"Yes, your majesty!"

Landon nodded at them pleasingly.

Of course he knew that as of now, only 57 people had been affected with the Shinjep disease within the city.

Last night, only one person was affected.

And now, it had already reached 57 cases.

Of course, it didn't help that the place was as dirty as a pig style.

So bacteria would obviously thrive here.

Hence when treating the people, the place had to be cleaned up as well.

Luckily for then, they had brought in gallons of cleaning detergent as well.

"Men.....you know what to do!

Some of you will guard the city, while others will provide aid in cleaning up the place, as well as caring for the sick.

City Lord Mason.... some of your men will also join in as well."

"Of course your majesty... it would be our pleasure to help.

And your majesty.... you can just call me Mason instead." Mason answered excitedly.

"Alright Mason.

To begin, we'll also need you to make a public announcement of what we're doing here, as well as what we need the people to do within this time frame.

As city lord, you'll also be working alongside me as well in caring for the citizens too.

Finally, before everyone can begin work... be it soldiers, nurses or doctors, I need everyone to wear their face masks and gloves as well.

Bear in mind that we do not know if this disease is airborne or not.

So when examining or getting too close to patients, please wear your safety wear immediately.

As for Mason and his own men, you can get these safety wears from the nurses before you all head out.

So with everything said and done..... it's time to get to work!"

"Yes, your majesty!"

And so, everyone quickly followed the nurses, who then handed them their gloves and face masks before they headed out in different directions.

Now, it was time for Mission shinjep to begin.
