The Tiny Lina Maya

Chapter 169 - Zombies

Lina took out a snow cloth, cut it into pieces, and gave two pieces to Wiro and Rei.

"Shut your mouth and nose with this cloth, to avoid contracting it" Lina said.

Wiro and Rei immediately did as Lina ordered.

Now several sick Orcs have been isolated and placed in the same room.

Wiro and Rei walked behind the incoming Lina first.

While he was inside the room, a voice inside Lina's mind suddenly sounded.

"Ting Tong!"

"Congratulations. You have triggered a random task!

"Please treat patients affected by this dead blood disease. Once the task is complete, the reward will be given to you."

"What is dead blood disease? I've never heard of such a disease." Think Lina.

There were twelve patients. They were all laid on the ground, with animal skins and straw.

"All of these patients look pale, their lips chapped and their eyes look sunken." Inner Rei.

"Their bodies looked extremely thin, and looked lifeless, as if their souls had been sucked in by a monster." Inner Wiro.

Wiro and Rei had never seen this kind of illness, they could only look at Lina, and put their hopes on Lina.

Lina wore gloves made of animal skin, opened the patient's mouth, looked at his teeth and tongue, then opened the patient's eyelids to observe his eyeballs closely.

He could not see what disease it was, he could only whisper to the voice in his mind, "Milk, what is a dead blood disease?"

The voice in Lina's mind tried to explain, "The source of this disease is the devil. You can get infected by this disease just by drinking blood from the devil. At the beginning of the symptoms, the patient's body will appear to look yellow and thin, and in the middle of the period of infection, the patient will fall unconscious, and the end result is only two possibilities."

"What's that?" Ask Lina to Bubu.

The voice in Lina's mind replied, "Patients will fester and die, or will become slaves of the demons, in other words, they will become murderous monsters that will kill anyone for no reason."

"Ah? It looks like this disease is like the one in the movies, but what is it.." Think Lina.

Then he tried to remember what this disease will be like, and began to remember, "Are they going to become zombies like in the movie Walking Dead and World War Z? It's gruesome.. If that happens, there will be a lot of casualties.."

Then he whispered again to ask Bubu, "Can the disease be cured?"

The voice in Lina's mind replied, "The healing method of the Temple can cure the disease of dead blood, as well as cleanse the entire blood and flesh of the infected host. In addition, your blood can also cure the disease."

Hearing that, Lina immediately said to Wiro, "This is a dead blood disease. I have to go back and make soup for these patients. You bring people in to check where they've been recently and what they've been eating." Lina paused for a moment, then said again with a lowered voice, "I suspect, that this matter might be related to evil spirits."

Hearing what Lina said, Wiro nodded as he said, "I understand."

Then Lina looked at Rei and said, "Rei, you bring some people to stand guard here, as soon as the symptoms of these patients appear to attack you, kill them immediately, then burn their bodies, no one can be left!"

"All right." Answer Rei.

This was the first time Lina had ordered someone to kill.

"Hhhh.. To be honest.. It feels so hard for me to do something like that."

Lina grew up in a society governed by law. Whatever he faces, he must remain disciplined and obey the law. Killing people was something he never thought of.

"But now I must willingly and courageously sacrifice a small number of people, to protect the safety of many."

He did not know whether doing so would be good or bad.

Instead, Rei and Wiro looked even calmer. They had all been familiar with murder for a long time and had no psychological burden whatsoever.

...........

Currently Lina had returned to the fortress and cooked a large pot of potion to purify the blood and energy. Then he slashed his finger and squeezed it until blood dripped into the soup.

After that he called Bonny, "Bonny, please take this potion to the foot of the mountain and give it to the Orcs who are currently sick."

His cheeks turned red as he nodded solemnly and said, "Alright. I'll take it there soon."

"Be careful when you give them medication, and remember to stay away from those patients" Lina said.

"Yes, I'll remember."

After saying so, Bonny immediately went down the mountain with a medicinal soup.

At this moment, Saga suddenly pulled Lina's hand, opened her mouth and immediately sucked Lina's injured finger.

Feeling licked by him, Lina's face also looks reddened.

"It's okay. It just hurts a little."

Until there was no more stench of blood, then Saga stopped his suction and looked into Lina's eyes while saying, "I hear, at the foot of the mountain there is infected with dead blood disease?"

Lina nodded as she said, "Yes."

"Where there is a disease of dead blood, there will surely be evil things." Saga Sayings.

Lina said, "I've asked Wiro to check on this matter, should the result be known soon."

...........

At night.

Wiro has returned with the results of his investigation.

"I found traces of blood left behind by the demons in the black river's headwaters. Some of his blood flowed into the river. When the poor Orcs go to the river to drink water, they accidentally drink the blood of the devil, which makes them infected with the disease of dead blood." Then Wiro paused for a moment to swallow his saliva and continued to say again, "Fortunately the black river current is relatively fast, so the demon blood will soon decompose and be carried away to a distance. Therefore, there were only more than a dozen Orcs infected with this dead blood disease. Otherwise, the number of Orcs infected with this disease would definitely be much more!"

This could have been because the Orcs were living in temporary settlements, most of them going to black creeks to drink water.

Upon hearing that, Uriel asked, "Have you cleaned up all the blood of the demon that was spattered?"

"I cleaned it up. Now the river should be normal again." Answer Wiro.

Then Uriel thought, "Why can there be another demon appearing near the black tributary? Ever since this great War in the Orc world, the demons had been defeated by the Shrines and withdrew themselves to continue hiding. From that moment on they were never seen again. Then why can, all of a sudden now they appear again? Is there a conspiracy?"

While eating sunflower seeds, Leon also said, "Maybe they came here, to find their friends from various demon circles."

As soon as this word came out, everyone immediately thought about the strange blood that was on Saga's body.

Saga said weakly, "I've never been in contact with demons. If the demons in my body were not awakened by Heli Belang, I might never know what those evil demons will be like in my entire life."

After Saga finished saying, Lina quickly said, "This has nothing to do with Saga."

Wiro also nodded and said, "Yes. We believe him."

Hearing what they said, Leon put several sunflower seeds in his mouth at once, and chewed them to make a sound, saying, "KRAUK! KRAUK! Your mind is too simple! KRAUK! KRAUK! KRAUK!"

Lina immediately looked at Leon and said in an angry tone, "If there's nothing you have to do, go back upstairs. Don't make a tantrum and talk nonsense again."

"Don't be angry, I'm just saying the possibilities objectively. I didn't have any prejudice against Saga," and Leon stopped saying, as if, he suddenly remembered something, and continued to say again, "By the way, by the way, the Orcs of the Feather clan were extremely disgusted with the demons. You better not tell them that in Saga's body is flowing demon blood, or they will come to look for Saga and make her suffer”

When she heard what Leon said, Lina rolled her eyes, saying, “Huh. Sounds like you're not from the Fur race."

"Although I am from the fur race, but I am not the same as Sky Letta." Said Leon casually.

"Where does it matter? Aren't you all equally hairy bird Orcs?" Ask Lina.

Leon winked at Lina, then said, "My moon is much more beautiful than them, besides, my strength is also much stronger than theirs."

Lina, "....."

"Well! Basic Orc feathers are insane!"

Leon continued to say again, "Have you ever seen anything belonging to the men of the feather clan? Did you know that my things are also bigger than theirs?"

Lina, "....."
