Chapter 771

With his team so strong, the difficulty of this mission is still medium.

It means that it is most likely not a mission that requires combat.

After reading the mission description carefully, I guess the type is decryption.

The penultimate sentence almost didn't tell Rin directly that there was someone behind this.

Rin was quite curious about this mission.

Anyway, if Winnie doesn't complete the commission as soon as possible, her departure time will be delayed, so it doesn't hurt to do it together.

At this time, an adventurer wearing a leather skirt passed by and looked towards them curiously.

Rin stepped forward, stopped her, and asked her if she knew anything about Winnie.

As soon as the other party heard Winnie's name, his eyes suddenly shone with admiration.

"Ms. Winnie is in Kaz Village now. You are going to visit her, too. Hurry if you want to go. Mistress Winnie may leave if it is late. By the way, you must leave as soon as you are done with the visit. Don't disturb her. "

It seems that many adventurers nearby have met her.

Yes, after all, she is the number one living legend among adventurers, and the lady most admired by adventurers besides brave men.

Lin thanked her and asked for the direction of Kaz Village, then got on the boat and headed upriver.

The camel beast stayed in the ancient city, and boats on the underground river were the most convenient and fastest way of transportation.

Two hours later they disembarked from the boat.

As soon as she stepped onto the river bank, Feiyue's sharp eyes immediately saw Winnie bending down to check something next to another river beach.

At this moment, there were adventurers watching from a distance, admiringly, without stepping forward to disturb them.

However, I didn't see many locals around here.

"Half-elf, half-elf!"

Feiyue raised a smile and shouted happily.

Winnie stood up after hearing the sound and looked this way. Her eyes were first on Rin, but she was soon attracted by Fei Yue. Her smile froze and she frowned slightly.

At this time, Feiyue smiled brightly and shook her hands quickly, as if she were meeting her relatives and friends.

The hair on Winnie's back stood out.

When several people gathered together, Feiyue's face was filled with joy: "Since the half-elf has arrived, let's get out quickly! The treasure is waving to me, hehe."

Winnie's pointed ears moved and she asked, "What's wrong with this guy? He went crazy after drinking fake wine?"

A night devil who was originally mature, elegant, cunning and unscrupulous has now become like the girl next door.

Even the well-informed half-elf felt a chill in his heart at this moment.

"Absolutely... The pocket watch last time had some side effects, but it won't take long for it to recover."

"What are you talking about!" Feiyue was a little dissatisfied, with a look of grievance on her face, "What's wrong with me like this? It's okay if Qiyu doesn't like it, but why do you even say that to me, a half-elf? It's too much."

Winnie rubbed her arms, her expression rarely able to remain elegant and calm.

Rin coughed lightly: "Don't worry about her. How pretentious she is now will be embarrassing in the future. By the way, let me introduce her to you."

Needless to say, they all knew Raphael, and Rin held onto Xiye's hand.

"This is my sister, Xiye Phoenix. You should have heard of her."

Winnie smiled slightly: "Of course I often hear that the Sword Master of the Kingdom has reached level 56 before he was 20, and his future achievements will not be lower than Selina's."

"Of course."

Rin generously praised her sister: "That's outdated news. She's already over 56 and has reached level 60. She can definitely surpass Aunt Selena."

Raphael opened his mouth, but in the end he didn't say anything to refute.

When her mother was this age, she was only level 53 or 54.

"Sister Idiot, this is the great adventurer Winnie, who I told you before."

What Rin told Xiye was not only Winnie's identity, but also her life experience.

But Rin didn't know how much the other party remembered in the dream, and they had just met, so it wasn't the time to talk about it.

Xiye was calm and serious, saluting Winnie solemnly.

"I have long admired your name, Your Excellency the Great Adventurer."

"After that, you are teammates, so you don't need to be so polite."

Winnie smiled softly: "I haven't invited the adventurers to join my team yet, so it would be great to have you here. By the way, little holy son, how was your trip to the dead city?"

Rin stopped and said, "It's been a great harvest. Now that I'm level 51, I can beat those over level 60 without any problem."

He paused for a moment and asked, "Why aren't you looking for someone?"

"Because I received a revelation from the goddess in my dream. Joining others is equivalent to pushing them into a pit of fire. Besides, it is still up to you to decide the candidate. You are the captain this time, your highness."

Rin looked suspicious; "How much do you remember about that dream?"

Winnie did not hide anything: "I don't remember much. I only remember that my companions were killed and injured. Feiyue and I were arrested. It seems that we were saved by you. Finally we met Lord Luna."

Rin thought for a moment, and what she saw was definitely not the Moon God, but the statue of the Moon God. Her remaining memory was confused, and she thought it was the Moon God.

"That's fine. The only ones left now are our own. We are enough. But then again, what were you doing just now?"

Winnie turned and looked towards the river bank, her expression slightly serious.

"I was originally at Guhe Castle, waiting to join you, but then a child came to my door and asked for my help."

The child's parents are adventurers, and both are Sim tribesmen.

When he was young, he didn't want to stay in the dark underground and yearned for the adventurous life outside, so he left his hometown and became a desert adventurer.

Recently, they took their children back to their hometown for a visit. Not long after, they dreamed of huge worms and contracted a strange disease that they couldn't help. They were so sick that they couldn't get out of bed.

Their children heard that the great adventurer their parents admired was also in the oasis, so they asked other adventurers to take him to seek help.

Winnie had nothing to do and didn't want to do anything, so she came here.

"I've seen the therapists, but they were helpless. This is not an ordinary disease, nor is it a curse. I heard that patients with strange diseases have been baptized in the underground river, so I came here to investigate. ”

When Winnie said this, she touched Rin's head apologetically.

"I thought you would arrive later, so I accepted the commission. I'm sorry for wasting everyone's time."

Rin dodged her hand in disgust: "Just apologize, why are you touching my head!"

"Sorry, it was a subconscious behavior, I don't know what happened."

It can only be said that I have become accustomed to it after being exposed to it too much during the trial.

Rin scratched his hair: "It's okay to stay a few more days. I'm also very interested in this matter. Let's investigate together. I'm a famous detective in the church!"

Chapter 15: Learn mathematics, physics and chemistry well, and you will not be afraid of traveling to other worlds

Through Winnie, Rin almost understood the whole story.

It started happening two weeks ago.

The Sim people have a custom.

Wanderers who went on a long journey had to be baptized before they could return home.

For baptism, you can only wear inner clothes and soak in the water of the Simu River for at least half an hour.

This underground river has always been regarded as the holy river and mother river of the Sim people.

Legend has it that a long time ago, a huge dragon swam underground and emerged from this river.

Thousands of years have passed, and this river has never changed its course or dried up, nourishing the Sim people for generations.

It is precisely because of this that the Sim people regard Sharon as an auspicious beast and established the so-called Sharon religion.

There was an incident where the worm was mistakenly used as a salon and almost destroyed the entire group.

The Sims woke up and then disbanded the church and rebuilt their homes in the underground rock formations.

However, the custom of baptism has always existed.

Tribesmen who have gone out have been away from their hometown for a long time, and the blessings of the holy river have disappeared, bringing bad luck from the outside world back to the tribe. They need to bathe in the water of the holy river to regain their blessing.

In the middle of every month, the water level of the Sim River rises due to unexplained and timely crustal movements.

This time is considered the most suitable time to receive blessings.

The returning tribesmen will gather together for baptism at this time.

Of course, these are not the only ones. Others who are in bad luck and are eager to eliminate misfortunes will also apply for baptism.

There were more than a hundred people baptized in the same group.

Three days after taking the bath, they began to collectively dream about worms, and then the strange symptoms officially appeared.

After hearing Winnie's description of the causes and consequences, as well as her own analysis, Rin discovered a bright spot.

"Then the child who came to see you is not infected?"

"He was already sick at the time due to acclimatization. His parents were worried that the cold water in the river would make his condition worse, so they did not let him be baptized and planned to wait until next month."

It sounds like there's no problem.

"So you're saying this could be a rare condition?"

"Well, it might be poison, so I came here to get water to investigate. Little Holy Son, do you have any guesses?"

Rin looked at the cold, deep lake and thought for a while.

"I guess it's either a special parasitic infection or mass hysteria."

"Hysteria?" Winnie was slightly startled and frowned.

Of course, there is also talk of hysteria in other worlds.

Disorientation, spasms, muscle weakness, and even paralysis may also occur.

But I have never heard of a high fever reaction.

Rin shrugged: "It's just an unfounded guess. We still need evidence to support it. I'll just wait for you to check the water source."

Winnie took out the bottle with her backhand and smiled at Rin.

"Your Highness the Holy Son, I'm not very good at alchemy, are you?"

"emmm..."

The branch of alchemy, pharmacy, includes various testing tests.

There are no doctors in this world, only pharmacists and healers.

Healers can treat common injuries, and healers with the purification spell can also treat common illnesses.

But for more complex ones, you have to rely on the pharmacist to prepare the potion.

In addition to functional medicines, medical potions are also the main source of income for pharmacists.

Whether it is a specialized interpretation medicine or a medicine for treating a disease, it must be symptomatic.

Testing and testing are of course also necessary tools for pharmacists.

Anyway, there is nothing wrong with treating pharmacists as part of the chemistry major.

Before switching to Rin, just taking elective courses to graduate, and the level of basic proficiency was definitely not enough.

Fortunately, he still retains all the knowledge of witches in his head.

Except for flying, none of the skills the witch gave him could bring him out of the dead city, but the knowledge recorded in his mind would not be taken away.

In other words, he is now also a master of theory.

Rin thinks that her hands-on ability is quite strong, so it shouldn't be a big problem.

"OK, leave it to me."

"If there are any missing materials, I'll ask adventure guilds in other cities to prepare them."

Rin took a tube of sample and shook it.

"Just checking the water quality is not enough, I also need blood samples from patients, at least five people."
