Garrett: T_T I’m not from the Inspection Department... I don’t want to deal with hundreds of samples every day... Now I finally understand the pressure those inspectors face during an epidemic...
The safety of the Magic Council headquarters! Whether it’s Class A or Class B, if any infectious disease breaks out...
When the nest is overturned, where can the eggs be safe?
Garrett felt sore and tired on the first day. On the second day, he felt dizzy. By the third day, his eyes were spinning, and he started to come up with all sorts of ideas:
"Elder Wood, do you want to know how I judge whether this patient can be released from isolation?"
"Do you know what I’m doing with these test tubes, meat broths, and dyes?"
"Do you know how I determine whether these patients are infected with the plague or not?"
"Can you teach us?" Suddenly, a head popped up nearby. Garrett turned his head, and the member of the Review Committee from the Black Crow Swamp once again appeared by his side. Garrett smiled:
"Of course! But I only have two microscopes, and the only place to get a 1000x microscope is from the Alchemy Guild!"
"I’ll go buy one!" The Archmage moved his foot, and the skeleton beside him swiftly transformed into a skeletal horse and dashed out. Just as the Archmage was about to leave, he turned back:
"How many people can I send to learn?"
Garrett wanted to say "they have 30 of them prepared," but he hesitated, worriedly looking at the necromancer:
"...First, let’s make it clear that you can’t use what I teach to spread the plague and harm civilians on a large scale!"
From that day on, Garrett had ten priests of the Natural God Church on his left and ten necromancers on his right. With a command and a gesture, they followed him to collect samples, dye them, and examine them under the microscope.
When it came to cultivating bacteria, the necromancers didn’t have this magic, so the priests had to help. After a few days of learning, they also formed a different kind of friendship...
Aurora Worton also mixed in among them. He didn’t want to at first, but he was scolded by his teacher to come over:
"I said I would help before! He wouldn’t teach me!"
"That was before! Now that he’s taught so many others, you’re still not following closely? Do you want him to beg you to learn? It annoys me! Get over here!"
With a kick from his teacher, Aurora had no choice but to obediently come over and help. Garrett didn’t mind, teaching him as much as he taught others. Not only that, he even threw over a paper:
"Fill in the data at the back for me, about various disinfection effects! We’ll send it out together later! Consider it your second authorship!"
Yay! Another paper mooched off! The boss is so generous! Following the boss is indeed the right choice!
After more than ten days, the plague crisis in Nevis City finally came to an end. No pathogenic bacteria could be detected in the excrement of the last patient, and there were no more abnormal reports in the monitoring of suspected patients for more than ten consecutive days.
Under the unfading bright flames, Garrett circled heavily on the text submitted by Aurora, "Let’s hand it in tomorrow. The Black Crow Swamp has hinted several times already. If we don’t conclude soon, I’m afraid they’ll come to dismantle my laboratory... Besides, they’ve pretty much seen everything there is to see now...
Now that they know what to pay attention to, and other schools know what happened, if we don’t release it, it’ll be even harder to contain the damage..."
The barbarian’s voice echoed outside. Garrett put down his pen and pushed the door open: "What’s the matter?"
"There are people outside looking for you!"
The team that came to find him was one that Garrett had never seen before. Five knights and two mages. They were all serious and in formation.
The knights were all dressed in neatly arranged light steel armor, draped in deep blue cloaks. On the hilt of their longswords, three gems were arranged in a row, with no distinction in the placement of the gems.
The two mages were wearing identical high-collared, fitted riding suits, wrapped in black cloaks with hooded cowls. The sleek and neat style indicated that they were standard military uniforms. Rainwater softly fell from the hoods of their cloaks, but none of it touched the mages’ garments. The badges they wore on their chests were all for fifth-level mages.
Whether in terms of personnel configuration or the value of their clothing and equipment, they were a level above the patrol team Garrett had seen.
"Mr. Garrett Nordmark?"
The mage on the left stepped forward on his horse. Seeing Garrett nod, he leaned forward on his horse and handed over a document sealed with wax:
"We are the Enforcement Team of the Magic Council. You are hereby summoned to appear for questioning at the 120th floor of the Tower of the Heavens at 9 o’clock tomorrow morning regarding the laboratory leak incident!"
