To Hell with Being a Saint, I’m a Doctor

Chapter 426

Episode 426 Contaminated Area (5)

“How is it? Do you know anything?”

Ray shook his head at Pet’s words.

“I know it’s a tumor, but I don’t know exactly where it got it. Since when did children become like that?”

“I had children who collapsed three months ago.”

it’s three months

Did the tumor in it get so bad?

Bacterial infection caused inflammation around the children’s face.

It seems that someone who does not know how to properly treat it may have touched it.

Ray, with a more serious expression than before, asked with a drool.

“What did the therapist say?”

“…they said it was a tumor, just like now. I promised that if I removed the tumor and called the priest and restored it with holy magic, it would get better soon… but the result…” The result was,

of course, not good.

What would be different if the tumor was removed without removing the cause of the tumor?

Besides, it seemed that the so-called ‘goblin disease’ wasn’t just a tumor.

The children’s skin was quite hot.

He suffers from a high fever to the extent that he cannot come to his senses properly, and is forced to endure it.

If a little more time goes by like this, the children who have lost their stamina will not be able to hold out any longer.

Ray, who was biting his nails, looked at the starting point of the smoke.

“Removing the tumor is not a good thing. One last question. When did the smoke start to erupt from the Goblin Swamp?”

“Um… I don’t know exactly, but it must have been five months. The ground was slowly heating up, and smoke was coming out at some point.”

Did the ground get hot?

Unless there is a volcano under the ground, there is little chance that the ground will get hot.

Ray, who had a questionable part, looked over the mountain with subtle eyes.

‘I guess I have no choice but to investigate the Goblin Swamp myself.’

I couldn’t send the villagers to investigate, so I had no choice but to find it myself.

Pet asked as Ray moved forward carrying a heavy leather backpack.

“Where are you going?”

“A goblin swamp. I guess I’ll have to go and find out for myself.”

Pete was startled by Ray’s words.

“It is reckless. The Goblin Swamp emits a terrible smoke that is inaccessible to ordinary people. Even outsiders will get the goblin disease if they approach it prematurely.”

goblin bottle.

In fact, the villagers were extremely afraid of this disease that resembled goblins.

Certainly, looking at the patient, it seems painful.

Its appearance is ugly, and the high heat makes it sweat a lot, so the smell is terrible.

Like a real goblin.

But what?

If the doctor is afraid of the patient’s disease, which doctor can treat the patient?

Ray snorted.

“does not matter.”

“yes?”

“It doesn’t matter if you get the goblin disease. If someone doesn’t go, more people suffer. If no one moves, someone will die in the future.”

“…but outsiders… aren’t they simply ‘outsiders’?”

Pete said as if throwing a question with a face full of complex emotions.

How to ride someone.

Could he risk his life for people he didn’t even know?

Are you not afraid of the goblin disease?

Does it really matter if you become hideous and fall ill with a disease that may lead you to die as you were?

At his words, Ray simply carried the leather backpack on his shoulder and walked slowly.

“The world needs someone who can move for those who are suffering. It doesn’t matter if it’s a poor, dirty child or a lowly slave. Someone who will move for you. That would be the ‘cure’ for him.”

“…”

Pet, who felt what he said, closed his mouth. It’s easy to say

‘the existence that will move on behalf of the suffering person…’

.

He knew from his life experience how difficult and courageous it was.

Even if you know it with your head, your body doesn’t follow.

However, if it wasn’t another time, I had to move myself in the current situation.

Isn’t your child suffering, not anyone else?

Pete clenched his fists and looked straight at Ray with determined eyes.

“Then… please take me with you. Until now, I have never been proud of my daughter. Please help the poor father to lift his face.”

The man, who had previously looked somewhat uneasy, now had the face of a decent father.

Seeing as if he had made up his mind, Ray nodded happily.

“Please guide me.”

According to Pete, the goblin swamp didn’t emit smoke in the first place.

Even half a year ago, the Goblin Swamp was just an ordinary bog everywhere.

Then why did it suddenly transform into a swamp of death?

When you’re thinking about the swamp.

Ray cast a spell on Pet, who gasped for breath whenever he got close to the goblin swamp.

“Protect. Air.”

Pet was covered with high-performance magic that was incomparable to the protection magic of most priests.

Pete admired how much easier it was to breathe.

“As expected, the outsider was a wizard. I’ve heard that there are wandering wizards from time to time, but this is the first time I’ve actually met them.”

The wandering great mage was the first.

The swamp got closer and the smoke grew thicker.

The turbid air made it impossible to see properly.

“This is a bit serious.” It is a performance that is not strange even if an average person suffocates.

I wondered where all this smoke came from.

I stepped a little faster, and soon after, a goblin swamp appeared.

Bubbling—

the swamp where the bubbles rose was a dark red color.

It did not appear to be an environment in which life could possibly exist.

“This is… a goblin swamp. I expected it, but it has changed a lot from before.”

Ray looked around with a serious face.

The trees were growing, but even those were rotting.

Because the sunlight was blocked by the smoke, the swamp was quite dark.

But the bizarre thing is that you can feel the remnants of mana here.

Feeling strange, Ray tried to spread mana a little wider.

Then, this time, a strange flow of mana was felt in a significant part of the forest.

After tracking them for a while, Ray clicked his tongue.

“This is a magic circle.”

“yes? A magic circle?”

“Someone changed the swamp with the intention of harming the village. The magic circle raised the temperature of the forest, and poison magic and black magic were added to the swamp. Originally, the poison smoke was being manipulated to spread through the wind blowing towards the village from the swamp.”

Pete tilted his head when he heard that someone had animosity towards the village.

“But who the hell…”

“Have you ever had a big grudge against any of the villagers?”

He denied it as if he didn’t even have to think about it.

“doesn’t exist. Our village is so small that everyone gets along well. Also, there were no outsiders for the past ten years, so there was no need to hold grudges.”

“That’s really strange… First of all, let’s destroy this magic circle.”

At Ray’s words, Pet shook his head.

“In order to destroy the magic circle, you must be accompanied by a magician of 3rd circle or higher and someone with expert knowledge about the magic circle. If you touch it wrong and something happens, it will be a big deal.”

Those who have expert knowledge of magicians and magic circles of Circle 3 or higher.

There was just the right person here.

“What bothers you?”

Ray sneakily kicked a large stone that felt the presence of mana.

The magic circle wouldn’t collapse by removing just one spot, but if there were too many of them, the story would be different.

Pet opened his mouth at his ability to break trees or push rocks while walking around.

What kind of wizard would destroy a whole tree!

“Aren’t you a magician?”

“These days, it’s hard for even a wizard to make a living if they don’t take care of their stamina.”

“Is that so?”

The naive village man believed the joke straight away.

Believe it so well, it seems that scammers are only targeting small towns.

The magic circle was surrounded by a wide area of the forest.

In order not to look foreign, stones, rocks, trees, or moss were used as a medium, but the mana was obvious, so it was easy to break.

It seemed that they didn’t do anything to hide the mana because they thought the villagers wouldn’t recognize it anyway.

“Tsk tsk. You drew a magic circle very openly.”

After seeing the magic tools created by the gods and the magic circles of the high elves, I couldn’t bear to open my eyes and look at them because these magic circles were so flimsy.

Far from hiding mana, ‘I am here.’ The appearance revealed or the harmony of the formulas used in the magic circle.

This is the level of scribbles by beginners.

Thanks to that, it was very easy to remove the magic circle.

As the mana was slightly disturbed, the heat surrounding the forest went away.

“…it’s cooler than before.”

Pete looked around.

He had only broken down a few trees and moved a few rocks, and he was amazed when it became noticeably cooler.

“I still haven’t been able to break it down to work. He’s here until I tell him to move. I’ll destroy the rest of the magic circles and come back.”

“I see.”

Ray wandered around the forest and destroyed all the points that shed mana.

bird’s nest.

A small tree branch placed in a cave.

The branches were all craftily and cleverly made, but they were oozing mana.

He thought about it every time he broke the magic circle.

‘This is absolutely not a level that can be made by holding a grudge against an individual. Something is obviously intervening.’

Both wild plants and swamps.

At the right time, it was just too right.

If you think about it again, it’s like there’s a magic circle in a remote forest around a village like this, and the fact that black magic was used in the swamp.

And the process by which the poisonous smoke from the swamp accidentally made its way to the village was also very suspicious.

For some reason, it seemed to have a close relationship with the work of wild vegetables.

At this time, Celia is struggling to prepare for war.

There were clandestine movements where they did not know.
