Chapter 25 Intervention

After Blay left, Qin Lun and his men began to pack up their tents and set off on their way again.

Throughout the day the next day, magic creatures created by the witch were still harassed the exorcist team, and at night, this attack reached its climax. The exorcist teams in three directions sent yellow smoke signals that needed support.

After the sophisticated Odo and Boni discussed, they asked the exorcist team at the last to support, and began to shrink the formation, shortening the one-kilometer interval between each small team by half, so as to facilitate each other's support.

By dawn on the third day, the evil creatures finally retreated, and all the exorcists were forced to concentrate in the back. When they returned to the central camp, Qin Lun found that his work began to become heavier.

The exorcist team suffered casualties, two companions died, and five others were seriously injured. The two exorcists who died belonged to the team that was originally responsible for cutting off the rear. Originally, the team had the worst strength. Last night, halfway through the way to support, they were also raided by some evil creatures and suffered huge losses.

The death of the two corpses was tragic. One was cut in half, and his companions were only taken back to his upper body. As for his lower body, it was probably now that his lower body had entered the belly of an evil creature.

Qin Lun found that the wound on the waist of the corpse was jagged, and the muscles and internal organs seemed to be torn to pieces by someone with brute force. It is hard to imagine how much pain this unlucky guy suffered when he died.

According to his companions, they were suddenly attacked by a scorpion-body man in the dark. This unlucky guy was caught off guard and was pinched by the scorpion-body man with big pliers.

This scorpion is one of the evil creatures created by witches. Unlike gargoyles who are completely magical creatures, and also from indigenous evil creatures such as trolls, the scorpion is a synthetic life with a broken soul.

Magic creatures like gargoyles that use magic cores as power sources cannot accept complex commands, and due to the shortage of resources, witches cannot create many. Intact living bodies such as trolls are too rare and have a low reproduction rate, so they cannot become the main combat power.

So after the thousand-year agreement, the witches began to study the combination of biological souls and magical configurations to create a mixed life form with broken souls.

These living organisms are called halflings or half-orcs. They have animal bodies and human incomplete souls, and can accept some complex commands and complete various tasks assigned by witches.

There are many types of halflings, including deer and horses with lower body and human horses with upper body; there are tigers and leopards with lower body and human beast-shaped predators with lower body; there are hawks with raptors with raptors, human face spiders with genes mixed with large spiders and large scorpions.

Because these halflings have broken human souls, they are more cunning than pure magic creatures like gargoyles. The incompleteness of their souls often leads them to a painful and frenzy state, so they are more cruel and fierce in battle. They often tear the corpses into pieces after killing their enemies, making them messy.

The appearance of the Scorpion proves that the Maiya Witch did notice the existence of this exorcist team, rather than encountering evil creatures in the forest.

Qin Lun shook the syringe on his hand and injected a tube of medicine into Nova's shoulder. The powerful Overlord Flower in the team was also injured last night and was bitten by a leopard on her shoulder. If she hadn't been talented and her bones were as hard as steel, she would have been a comminuted fracture if she hadn't been without her talent.

"Thank you, Dr. Stan!" Nova looked at her shoulders that were wrapped in rice dumplings, with a strange expression.

Qin Lun just removed rotten meat and corrected bones very professionally. His movements were proficient and steady, but the bandage technique seemed very rough, and he was even worse than those of them in some aspects.

"You're welcome, Ms. Nova!" Looking at her "masterpiece" of rice dumplings, Qin Lun shrugged himself.

He couldn't tell Nova that he wouldn't bandage the wound at all. As for the skilled surgical movements, it was just that there were too many "anatomical internships" in the past and he could learn it without a teacher.

"Ms. Nova, are we going to take out of the Maiya Forest?" Qin Lun rolled his eyes and asked with concern.

"We haven't decided yet. When everyone breathes a sigh of relief, we have to discuss it!" The horizontal flesh on Nova's face shook for a moment, and she frowned tightly.

Unlike the leisure two days ago, on the morning of the third day, Qin Lun became the busiest person in the entire camp. Deleting the two victims and five seriously injured, the exorcist team is now less than twenty, and most of them are more or less minor injuries.

"Doctor Stan, let's have something to drink first! It would be great to have you with the team, otherwise, those five seriously injured partners might have already sacrificed!" Odo handed Qin Lun a cup of hot cocoa and said with a heavy face, "The leaders of several teams need to discuss, come here too. We want to hear your opinions in some aspects!"

Qin Lun curled his lips slightly. Of course, he knew what Odo and the others wanted to ask, but it was nothing more than a handling of several seriously injured people, to see if they could still hold on. This was related to whether the team wanted to send someone to escort the seriously injured people and whether others could continue to move forward.

Otherwise, he would not be qualified to attend the meeting in front of these experienced exorcists.

"I think we should withdraw from the Maiya Forest, gargoyles, trolls, halflings, which has formed a complete system of evil creatures. They appear together on the periphery of the forest, which is enough to prove that the Maiya Witch is peeking at the human settlement outside the forest, not far from their official attack!"

When Qin Lun entered the tent, several heads of the Exorcist Squad were arguing fiercely, and the person who raised his return was a middle-aged exorcist with a bearded face.

"No, we have not confirmed whether the epidemic is made by a witch. Once we exit the forest, our mission will fail this time and will not help in solving the current dilemma in the Odia area!" Boni raised his eyebrows and immediately raised his objection.

"But if all of us fall here, the exorcist power in the Odia area will become paralyzed and will no longer prevent the witch from invading Odia. The best choice now is to return to Albert Castle immediately and report the situation here to the headquarters." The bearded man retorted loudly.

Hearing his analysis, the exorcists in the tent fell silent one after another. They did not lack the courage to sacrifice, but were unwilling to sacrifice in vain. The current situation is indeed as the bearded exorcist said, this is the first time they encountered so many evil creatures outside the forest. If there is no witch's instruction behind this, no one believed it.

The key question now is whether they want to give up this reconnaissance mission and temporarily give up the investigation of the source of the epidemic. After exiting the forest, even if the witches attack in large numbers, they can still resist for a period of time with the terrain advantage of Albert Castle. However, if they give up tracing the source of the epidemic, the epidemic in several towns will definitely be even worse.

"Doctor Stan, how long can those five seriously injured exorcists last?" Seeing Qin Lun enter the tent, Odo opened his mouth to break the silence.

"I have dealt with their trauma, but there is a lack of applicable medicine here. Their injuries are not allowed to take long journeys. I think it is better to send them back to the castle for recuperation, otherwise, I cannot guarantee their lives!" Qin Lun said lightly.

Although Qin Lun hoped that these exorcists would continue to go deep into the forest, he did not deliberately conceal the situation of the injured. These exorcists are experienced, and even if he doesn't say it, many people know it.

As he said, Bonie paused and leaned on the chair in frustration. This was the last straw that crushed the camel. If the other five injured people could no longer hold on, and if they still needed someone to escort, the remaining power was no longer enough to go deep into the forest, and it would be meaningless to die in vain.

"Since that's the case..." A trace of struggle appeared on Odo's face.

"Please wait a moment, Lord Odo, all the respected exorcist seniors, can you listen to my opinion?" Qin Lun's eyes flashed and he interrupted Odo's speech.

"Doctor Stan, please tell me! Although you are a novice exorcist, as a team doctor, your opinions are also very important to us!" Nova said in a deep voice.

"Thank you, Ms. Nova!" Qin Lun nodded at Bawanghua with a smile, "I do not have the rich experience of everyone here in my judgment of the current situation. What I want to say is about the epidemic in the Audia area!"

Qin Lun's words immediately attracted everyone's attention. If the doctor rashly expressed his views on this action, other exorcists would only sneer. However, he was well-deserved authoritative about the development of the epidemic, and no exorcist dared to ignore his opinions.

Seriously speaking, the ultimate goal of the Exorcist's mission is to protect ordinary humans in the Odia area. It doesn't matter if the mission cannot be completed. At most, the mission points will be deducted by the Exorcist headquarters. However, if the epidemic affects the safety of the entire region, they will really let down the exorcist's mission.

"Based on the information you have brought me at present, I infer that within two weeks, a major epidemic will break out in the entire Audia area. The accumulation of early epidemic patients has reached the critical point. Once it continues to spread, the epidemic will no longer be suppressed." Qin Lun said expressionlessly.

"Doctor Stan, you mean we must find the final solution to the disease within two weeks?" Odo's eyes burst into light. The middle-aged man who had always acted like a good man was exuding a fearful aura at this time.

"Doctor Stan, can't you control the continued development of the epidemic? Your medicine..." Boni's face changed and he asked hurriedly.

"The preparation of that kind of drug is extremely complicated and others cannot interfere. I am just alone, and even if I prepare the drug 24 hours a day, I can't save a few people!" Qin Lun said lightly, "We must find the real antidote for the epidemic virus, otherwise, why do you think I, a doctor, have to participate in your combat mission?"

"Doctor Stan, you should tell us this in advance!" Odo said in a deep voice.

"It's not too late, isn't it?" Qin Lun narrowed his eyes slightly and said with his eyes flashing. "Actually, I have some ideas about the difficulties we are currently facing. Several seniors can refer to it..."
