Deva Wizard: The Great Xian in King Arthur's Realm

Chapter 41: The Cure of the Crystal Disease Part I



Merlin’s investigation went on. He went out to check the stream by himself and examined the water in the area of origin with the magical hoops from Lemegeton knowledge.

A perk of the Lemegeton encyclopedia was that it enabled one to know all the benefits of magical hoops. So, Merlin summoned each type of magical hoop to synthesize the water in this stream to find the source of the crystal disease.

Unfortunately, after a long time, the presence of the crystal disease became really diluted. But luckily still, although it was so faint that it was unnoticeable by human eyes, with the power of Lemegeton Eye, these germs could not escape Merlin’s eyes.

Merlin stared at the water in the bottle and examined it.

“As I thought, someone intentionally spread this disease.”

As soon as Merlin said that, all his followers were shocked.

The cause of this contagion was the poison in the water.

“I will find some information at the end of the stream. Do not follow me.”

After saying that, Merlin leaped up in the sky and disappeared like smoke.

The villagers did not dare to disobey Merlin’s command; even if they had wished to follow him, they would not have had the ability to do so because Merlin’s movement was very fast. And worse, he could fly.

“He is a true alphabet user. His power is beyond any ordinary people,” said a villager.

“It was such good luck that he had stumbled upon our village or else nobody would have survived.”

“I am so ashamed that I once insulted him; my eyes were too blind. I hope he does not hold grudges.” The bar owner said.

“He is such a good person to help our village and look past everyone’s mistakes.”

“I am truly grateful for his help.” A girl with pustules shared while wiping off the tears on her cheeks.

“We should head back; there’s nothing we could do here. If we try to chase the alphabet user’s tail too hard, it might bug and burden him.” A man said and turned back to the village.

In the past, when Merlin was a Qi accumulation practitioner, he was discouraged from walking on this path. At one point, he decided to turn back to live as an ordinary person and study medicine to make it his career.

It was not his first time finding a disease’s origin. He had done it countless times when he was a commoner.

After he arrived at the lake, or the end of the stream, looking around, he found that there was a spot in this lake where the water was too clear. Its clearness was unusual.

Without hesitation, Merlin bottled that water.

When he got back to the village, the headman nicely prepared him accommodation and food.

But unfortunately, eating and sleeping were almost unnecessary for Merlin. People in stem-building-staged cultivation did not need to live like ordinary people. He had deserted these factors for quite some time.

Merlin used his residence’s hallway as his workspace. With a few flicks of his hand, the prepared stuff was pushed aside and the inside of the room became an empty space.

The drops from the stream and the lake were taken out of the magical ring.

Merlin concentrated and flicked his hand adeptly.

And shortly, a lot of inspectional magical hoops came out.

Merlin checked those drops right away.

His countless distilling experiences were equipped skillfully.

And the alphabet that turned into magical hoops was briskly used. Colorful beams shone out brightly showering the whole house.

These colorful beams from the magical hoops truly amazed the villagers.

“What is the alphabet user doing?” Out of confusion, a girl said.

“I have no idea, but these lights must be something extraordinary,” another man shared.

“Do you think he can cure us?” A woman sadly asked while looking at her hand that had already turned into crystal.

“I cannot answer you this question. He is the only one who can.” A guy answered.

“I pray to all the gods, please, let it be successful.”

“I will do the same.” After saying that, the two guys walked away.

Merlin spent one night trying to find the crystal disease’s germs, unfortunately, it did not go as planned.

In these water drops, the germs were badly diluted. It was probably because they were put out here a long time ago, so they became so faint.

Merlin wanted to find a strong source of the germs for the research on the cure. But sadly, this small number of germs was not enough for him.

Another two nights had passed; Merlin was still studying the treatment.

Merlin did not even touch the food that the headman of the village had prepared for him. Plus, he did not allow anyone to see him during these days.

There were more and more talks about this alphabet user. He was still a child; however, he was highly skilled. Those hundreds of soldiers were not even his matches.

After he came back from exploring the stream, he had been locking himself up in the house. And some nights, strange lights would drench this whole place, seriously scaring the villagers.

But the strangest thing that happened after the alphabet user came to this village was that he never slept, ate, or drank. He would be like this for several days, which was not something a normal person could do.

They did not know whether other alphabet users were like this or not or if all the alphabet users needed no food or sleep.

A lot of people said he was a god—a god that saved their village.

The fact that one did not eat or sleep was incredible if he was just a normal person. But if he was a god, it would sound more reasonable.

Then the rumor that this alphabet user was a god sent down from heaven spread out widely.

Many people started to worship and pray for Merlin.

Now, Merlin became even more worshipful for the villagers.

Three days later, Merlin summoned the headman and ordered him to assemble the villagers again.

This time Merlin wanted some volunteers: whether those who just got infected, those who just showed symptoms, those with a stable condition, or those who were severely sick, for him to thoroughly diagnose the disease.

Those who just got infected had symptoms like they were having a fever. They felt hot flushes all over because of the disease. As for the severe ones, some parts of their bodies were eaten up by the disease and turned into crystals. Luckily, those were not important organs like heads or hearts; or else they would not be able to keep their lives.

Merlin used a leaf glazed in Xian vital essence to cut into a part of each volunteer’s body. He forced the blood into the empty bottles he had prepared until he got a lot of bottles filled with blood all in order and categories.

After he had all the blood samples, Merlin went back to his place.

His actions created questions for people in the village, but not a soul slipped those doubts.

Right now, everyone trusted Merlin.
