Chapter 1819: The Same Continent
In the end, Governor Weir did not believe Leo's statement about controlling monsters, but he did adopt the inference of parasites. After finishing the conversation with Leo, he ordered the soldiers to cooperate with the doctors to eliminate pests in the city, and at the same time also
Carry out plague inspection and prevention and control.
All the kingdoms in this world that participated in the development of the New World have excellent medical capabilities, especially in dealing with infectious diseases. They also have a prevention, control and treatment system for parasitic diseases.
This is mainly because in the process of the expansion and colonization of the New World by these kingdoms, the biggest casualties were often various diseases, among which infectious diseases and parasitic diseases were the most serious. For this reason, the coastal countries established several joint medicine centers to deal with these diseases.
The hospital specializes in this type of medical research and has produced quite impressive results over the past ten years.
The Kingdom of Lute was one of the first kingdoms to establish relevant medical schools. Although they did not cooperate with other kingdoms, they obtained considerable research results through bribery, theft, etc., in the treatment, prevention and control of infectious diseases and parasites.
Technology has also reached the forefront.
As the important town of the Lute Kingdom in the New World, Ma Tau Bay has three of the most outstanding infectious disease and parasite experts here. This inspection of the entire Ma Tau Bay was also led by them. They are well aware of the damage caused by infectious diseases and parasites.
Their attitude towards this matter was also extremely rigorous. They did not hesitate to spend a lot of manpower and material resources to check the entire Ma Tau Bay town and its surrounding areas three times, and finally found three dangerous parasites and seven parasites carried on their bodies.
Patients with infectious diseases such as dysentery will nip possible future plagues in their bud.
However, the three parasites they found were completely different from the parasites on Daman who was locked in the cell. The parasite on Daman was obviously a new species that had not been recorded in any medical journals.
Because of this, the decision to execute Daman and then burn Daman's body was postponed indefinitely. Daman also came out of the cell and was taken to a specially designated isolation area near the port.
Let the three medical experts conduct research.
As for Leo, even though Governor Weir did not believe in the monster cybernetics he said, he still believed that Leo had extraordinary knowledge and abilities. However, he had not yet made a clear decision on how to arrange him, so he only improved him a little.
treatment, such as no longer treating him as a prisoner, but as an employee, which means that he will be paid some salary regularly, and a large amount of funds will also be allocated to him, allowing him to do what he wants.
Research, all in all, his treatment is almost the same as that of ordinary officials in Ma Tau Bay.
It's just that while his salary increased, the number of people arranged around him also increased a lot. Not only did he add two more followers, but also added four soldiers to protect him in name. In addition, in order to keep the research funds from being spent.
As for misuse, a general secretary in charge of property was specially assigned to review the funds.
Leo didn't care about this kind of improvement in treatment. He was more concerned about the parasites in the pustules on Daman. So before Daman was taken away, he went to see Daman again and picked out a few of them.
pustules, removed the parasites inside, and brought them back to their residence for study.
The reason why he is interested in this kind of parasite is because he knows this kind of parasite, and knows its origin and usage, but this knowledge does not come from this world, but from the world of Velen.
When Leo first saw the shape of the pustules on Daman's body, he had a feeling of déjà vu. Later, he discovered that there were parasites in the pustules, which further confirmed the origin of his feeling.
On the Mozan continent in Velen world, there are also a large number of trees and jungles, and there are also various strange and weird species there. Because of the shamanistic beliefs of the Mozan continent, these strange and weird species have been applied to shamanistic spells.
And according to the different species used, shamanic spells are also classified, such as animal spirit shamans who use beasts as the core of shamanic spells, wood spirit shamans who are good at using plants, and insect shamans who are good at using insects.
Compared with animal spirit shamans and wood spirit shamans, there are not many insect shamans who specialize in insects as the core of their power. This is mainly because there are far more insects that can meet the requirements of shaman spells than wild beasts and plants.
After countless years of verification, there are less than twenty kinds of insects that can finally meet the shaman's magic, and the parasite on Daman is one of them.
This parasite is called Jiaku. This name is because it likes to build nests on a kind of Jiaku tree. Its adults are very large, about the same size as cats and dogs, but its eggs are very small, only one-third of a grain of rice.
One, and all the insect shaman can use are insect eggs.
The insect shaman will collect the insect eggs, use shamanic magic to cultivate the eggs, and finally turn them into powdered insect powder. When using it, you only need to stimulate the insect powder through the natural power of the shaman, and then let it
When the insect powder sticks to the enemy, the insect powder can adhere to the surface of the skin, then penetrate into the human body through the pores, be carried to the back by the blood, hatch into larvae, and appear on the skin in the form of pustules.
Although the eggs have parasitized on the target and hatched larvae, this will not cause much harm to the target. Only through the stimulation of specific shamanic natural power can these Jiaku parasites mutate.
A special insect liquid will be produced and injected into the target's body, causing the target's body to mutate into a monster in a very short period of time.
Because this kind of shamanic spell is very easy to be discovered, and the effect it displays is extremely scary, the shamans of the Mosang Continent often use this kind of shamanic spell to torture and punish criminals, and it is rarely used in actual combat.
After Leo identified this kind of Jia Ku insect, the first thought that came to his mind was this kind of shamanic magic. And after analyzing Daman's experience, he was very sure that these Jia Ku insects had come into contact with Daman.
The monster planted in him, and using wild beasts or other media as a method to deliver insect eggs is also a method of shamanism.
Although it is certain that Daman has been hit by a shamanic spell, Leo is still not sure that the shamanic spells in this world have extraordinary power, because according to his understanding, the shamanic spells of the Jia Kuworm can also be used conventionally.
This method is used in actual combat and does not require a special shaman to perform it. In some tribes, the people who use this kind of shamanic magic to punish criminals are usually tribal executioners, and the executioners are also ordinary people.
As for how to use it specifically, Leo was not very clear. After all, this shamanic spell was useless to Leo. He only had a brief understanding of it and did not seriously study this shamanic spell.
Rather than whether this shamanic spell involves extraordinary power, Leo is more curious about why the Jarkum appears in this world.
All he can think about now is that these Jakuworms were brought to this world from the ghost ships from the world of Velen, and they also brought the seeds of the Jakutree, because the larvae of the Jakuworm can only feed on the Jakutree.
Only with the sap of the tree can it grow. Without the tree, the worm will naturally perish.
However, Leo soon rejected this inference, because the ghost ship from the world of Velen happened after the gray fog disappeared on the sea, and before that, the so-called ghost ship that appeared in the gray fog was without a sailboat, and
Judging from the description of this gray fog ghost ship in the legend, it is more like an aircraft than a ship, not to mention that ship usually appears in deep sea areas far away from the shore, unlike the current ghost ship that will
When stormy weather occurs, it may even occur in a shallow sea area very close to the shore. It is easy for the tree species and insects carried on the ship to fly to the shore. Therefore, if we follow common sense, the seeds of the Jia Ku tree and the Jia Ku tree
The insects may have only been in this world for a dozen years.
In the past ten years, it is impossible for the Jiaku tree and the Jiaku insect to reproduce on a large scale, let alone be discovered by the people here. And based on the Jiaku insect eggs, they have developed something similar to the one in the Velen world.
Shamanic magic.
So after denying the inference of a ghost ship, Leo made an extremely bold inference, that is, the Mozan continent and the current new continent are actually the same continent, and the world of Velen and the current world may also be the same.
In the same world, not only the land is connected together, but the ocean may also be the same ocean, but they are isolated from each other by gray fog.
Leo's inference is not groundless. In addition to the fact that the missing ships in the world of Velen appear in this world in the form of ghost ships, there is another point that can also be used as circumstantial evidence, that is, the oceans of this world are also covered by gray fog.
Wrapped in the gray mist, no one knows what is on the other side.
However, these two pieces of evidence only support the possibility of this inference and cannot be used as concrete evidence. Leo still needs to find more evidence. This evidence is the various plants and animals growing in the New World.
It seems that since the Jaku tree and Jaku insect have appeared in this world, there will definitely be other plants unique to the world of Velen that will appear in this world.
For this reason, Leo specifically found the Governor's Mansion, hoping to access various biological specimens collected by the previous pioneering team of the Kingdom of Lute in the name of research.
Although the main mission of the pioneering group formed by these colonists is to open up land and annihilate enemies, collecting biological specimens is also one of their important tasks, because these unique creatures from the New World can be sold for very high prices on the Novat continent, especially
That rare breed.
Leo's application was quickly approved, and he was taken directly to the archives built next to the town government office building. Then the administrator took stacks of dusty documents and piled them on the table.
Seeing these documents that had not been turned over for a long time and some of the pages were almost covered with mold, Leo also understood why Governor Weir agreed to his request so easily. Obviously, for the people here,
The rare species of the New World were valuable, but the documents documenting them were worthless, not even worth a second glance.
As the administrator continued to take out those long-dusted files from the warehouse, Leo quickly flipped through the files. Before the administrator could take out all the files, he had already read through almost all the files on the table.
files, and a clear conclusion has been reached, that is, the new continent is indeed connected to the Moissanite continent.
In these recording documents, not only the detailed characteristics of each creature discovered by the pioneering team are recorded in detail, but also exquisite pictures are attached, which can more intuitively understand the form of this creature, and in these recorded creatures
Among them, nearly a quarter of the plants have appeared in the Moissanite continent and are also endemic to the Moissanite continent. There are no such plants in the Velen and Minsk continents. In addition, there are some insects,
It is also a unique species of the Moissan continent, but the number cannot be compared with that of plants. As for other beasts and birds, none of them are the same as the beasts and birds of the Moissan continent, but there are still some beasts and birds that can be distinguished from their shapes and habits.
It can be seen that it should be related to some wild beasts and birds in the Moissan continent, and they belong to different branches of the same biological species.
Based on the analysis that the current Moissanite Continent and the New World are most likely the same continent, Leo can almost make a bold inference. The depths of the virgin forest of the New World must be shrouded in gray fog, just like the edge of the sea.
Like the gray fog, there are even other continents like the Mozan Continent and the New World in other worlds, which makes Leo couldn't help but become more curious about the gray fog shrouding the continent.
After returning to his residence from the archives, Leo continued his unfinished research, mainly studying whether there was extraordinary power in the parasitic larvae of the Jia Kuworm. As a result, after repeated attempts, he could not find any traces of extraordinary power in the parasitic larvae.
, this kind of Jiachui was cultivated through other unknown methods, but the function of this kind of Jiachui has not changed. It still promotes the host's body to mutate by secreting a certain liquid. As for the normal stimulation of the larvae
He hasn't discovered the method yet, but one thing is certain, it is that the larvae of the Jia Kuworm can still be stimulated with extraordinary power.
After confirming that the shamanic spell of Jiakuchong did not involve extraordinary power, Leo did not investigate further. In his opinion, he did not need to take the initiative to find the person who cast this shamanic spell. He only needed to wait quietly.
The person who casts the shamanic spell will appear on his own, because it is not difficult to see from Daman’s experience that the person who casts this shamanic spell is conducting some experiments, and Daman is just one of the experimental subjects, and there will be more experimental subjects in the future.
Appear until he thinks that this shamanic magic has achieved the effect he wants, he will appear in front of these people in Ma Tau Bay.
Although Leo was already sure about the connection between this world and the world of Velen at this moment, Leo was still curious about the notes he found on the Queen Sydney, and wanted to find out until the end of the Queen Sydney
