Reincarnated as an Energy with a System

Chapter 121: Calming the crowd

"What the hell?" Ning shouted in surprise when he saw his own fingers start to have multiple black spots in them. And it was much more densely packed than the women's.

'Sh*t, this is contagious,' he thought. However, that had helped him narrow things down a lot more.

He looked at his fingers and tried to find out if he could feel anything, but either fortunately or unfortunately, there were no sensations.

That narrowed a lot more. There were only 4 possibilities left in his mind now. 'So it's either the Fat Killing plague or..'

"AHHHH." Suddenly, screams appeared from outside. Ning immediately walked out to check what was happening. When he finally saw the scene in front of him, he was beyond terrified.

In front of him were hundreds of different people who all had different amounts of black spots all over them. Men, women, children… the disease made no distinctions.

Ning looked to the side and saw a fat person with a black spot all over him. "So, no the Fat Killing plague." The possibilities were down by 1.

He looked around to find other peoples that could help him get more answers. He saw a blonde person amongst the crowd who had a considerable amount of black spots.

"Not the disease that attacks bases on Melanin levels in the hair either. What about the skin?" he wondered as he looked at another person with very dark skin.

Even those people had darker spots all over them. Ning looked down at his own hands and noticed that the black dots had extended up to his elbow.

"Damn, that is fast," he thought. "So, if it's not that then… " as he was thinking, he caught sight of a young teenage girl with absolutely no black spots on her skin. She was standing still in the crowd, clearly terrified of what was happening, yet it not happening to herself.

Ning ran up to her and asked, "Hey miss, you mind if I check something?" he asked. The terrified girl looked at Ning and saw that he was a volunteer and quickly nodded.

He placed his palms on her back and used the Yin to Sound conversion technique. Immediately, a loud sound appeared from where he touched the little girl.

'As I thought, it's that one.'

Ning removed his hands and told the girl, "Close your ears."

As soon as the girl closed her ears, Ning took a big breath and screamed, "EVERYONE! CALM DOWN! THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH YOU!"

Some people stopped and looked at Ning. Hearing a volunteer say that nothing was wrong was quite a relief. But most people still screamed and ran away.

Ning screamed a few more times, using all of his cultivation base to scream at the top of his lungs, yet only a few stopped.

He cried out a few more times, but nobody really listened. They ran around like a chicken without its head, screaming that they were going to die now.

Ning was out of breath and the people were just too many to say anything to.

"EVERYONE STOP RUNNING"

"IT'S OKAY, STOP RUNNING"

"STOP CAUSING PROBLEMS"

Suddenly, Ning heard a few others scream as well. He turned around to see that the other volunteer was speaking up in his stead.

Ning too joined and soon, everyone was calmed down.

"Please, you have nothing to worry about. These black spots will go away on their own in about a month. You do not have to worry about them at all," Ning told them once they all calmed down.

"Please return home in a calm manner and tell everyone you meet the same thing. They have nothing to worry about, and that it will go away on its own in a month," Ning said.

Slowly, the people started leaving the place and soon nobody except for the volunteers were there.

"Good job, Volunteer Ning. You took care of the chaos very well," Rosor came and said.

"Thank you brother Rosor," Ning said. Ning looked back on the open door in his room and saw that the girl had also already left.

"B-Brother Ning, your face," Rosor said.

"Hmm… Oh yeah, I have the thing. You guys will have it soon too," Ning said.

"What? Can't we prevent it?" one of the volunteers said.

"Oh god, I don't want to fall ill," another one said.

"Huh? Didn't you guys listen to what I just said? It will go away on its own in a month. It's not a problem at all," Ning said.

"What? You were telling the truth?"

The volunteer was pretty surprised at the fact that he wasn't lying.

"You guys helped me not knowing it was the truth?" Ning asked.

"It's our job to control the crowd. So I thought that was what you were doing in the first place. Wow, I didn't know that you actually knew what the problem was," Rosor said.

"Brother Ning, If you really know what happened then you should report this to the guild so that they know what to do in the case of people coming again," Rosor said.

Ning nodded and decided to do just that. He walked over to the registration hall and let the reception know what had happened.

The guy at the reception was shocked. He immediately called someone and a girl walked out from inside.

"We already have enough patients in there, why are you calling me here?" Mikaela said as she got out.

"Sister Mikaela, Volunteer Ning here says that he had something to relay to the guild regarding the new disease," the man at the registration said.

Mikaela was a little shocked and looked at Ning as she asked, "You know how to fix the new disease?"

"Something like that. I have information that the Elders and Physicians might not," Ning said. Mikaela contemplated for a bit, but in the end, Ning was a volunteer, which was enough for her to not deny his request.

"Alright, Follow me, Volunteer Ning," she said and took him inside the guild.
