Chapter 274 (1/2)

“Sir, this is a little weird. Sheng City has always let refugees come and go as they please. Back then, Sheng City would’ve let all of them in, no matter how many refugees,” said Alvin.

Everything Alvin said was true, it wasn’t a myth. Back then, Sheng City would’ve allowed any number of refugees in. This was the first time they hadn’t.

There must be a reason for that.

The outer layer of Sheng City comprised of a few small towns. When it came to the centre of Sheng City however, no one was allowed entry - not even the believers.

Not only that, anyone with a sharp eye could tell that within the alchemy formation, there were even some of Sheng City’s followers and clergies, also isolated from everyone else.

“If I’m not mistaken, there’s some sort of plague here…” Ye Lang muttered, frowning.

“A plague?!” everyone shouted. That was the word that spread fear within the people, definitely one that people would not like to hear.

“That’s right.” said a group of centaurs wearing masks and white protective suits, appearing in front of Ye Lang.

“One of the refugees brought an unknown disease here. Something even our holy healing powers cannot cure. Our doctors are working on an antidote as we speak,“ they explained.

Knowledge was important in this great land of alchemy. The people here knew how to protect themselves from diseases, teaching others how to do so. They knew they how important precautionary measures were- even their protective equipment had purifying alchemy formations on them.

“Have you people not found it yet? Let me have a look,” Ye Lang frowned. How could he ignore such a problem?

“You? Enter? I think not! You all better leave right now for your safety. We don’t need anyone else getting infected,” the medics replied after a while.

They saw a rich prince in Ye Lang and thought that he could not comprehend the true horrors of a plague. They figured that he’d get infected the moment he stepped foot in the city.

For someone who did not know how dire the situation was, they wanted to teach him a lesson and let him straight in. However, the stakes were simply too high for them to do something so careless.

However, they didn’t consider the idea of Ye Lang being able to assist them in finding a solution to the problem. If they were to let him intervene, there’d be a better chance of coming up with a solution for the infected.

“They’re right sir, a plague is no joke. We should let the doctors do their jobs. Sheng City has the best doctors in the world. If these doctors are unable to heal them, then no one else can,” Alvin responded nervously.

It is just as Alvin had said. If the best doctors in the world couldn’t do anything, no one could. Sheng City not only filled with the best doctors but also light magicians who knew how to heal.
