Messiah squeezed into the panicked crowd and saw a middle-aged woman standing in the middle of the street.
She was wearing a linen scarf to cover her hair, but the scarf covering her face had unexpectedly fallen off. At that moment, Messiah could clearly see the festering marks on her cheeks.
It was not until she saw the ruby pendant that Messiah was sure that she was the little girl's mother!
However, the people of Velvet Fragrance City also saw the woman's face, especially the festering marks on her face. In the eyes of the people, it was as terrifying as the scythe of the Grim Reaper.
"It's Grey Whisper!"
No one knew who first shouted the name of the plague, but the people on the street quickly retreated, and the street with the woman in the center became empty in an instant.
She seemed to have accidentally fallen to the ground, and the scarf covering her face fell off. She was holding a wooden basket in her hand.
The food in the basket was scattered on the ground because of the fall, but the woman still wanted to pick up the scattered food in her panic.
"Let me help you."
Messiah went against the crowd and directly came to the woman's side and half-squatted down. When she saw Messiah, she was stunned for a moment, but Messiah quickly put some of the food on the ground back into her basket.
The woman was just about to say thank you to Messiah when a stone flew out of nowhere and hit her on the head.
This caused scarlet blood to flow from the woman's forehead. A golden light appeared on Messiah's hand to heal the wound on the woman's forehead.
However, another stone hit Messiah's foot. Messiah instantly turned around and found that the people who had already retreated a certain distance did not leave. The stones were thrown from these people in the crowd.
"The people of the Land of Frost who brought the plague! Get out of our country! "
Someone in the crowd took the lead and shouted. When a few more stones were thrown, Messiah instantly waved his hand and hit them to the ground.
Messiah glanced at the people around her, and a feeling of guilt welled up in her heart.
The reason for the guilt was because the hateful expressions and words on their faces reminded her of her past.
In the past, Messiah was also influenced by the view that 'demons are evil monsters' in the Kingdom of Saint, which was why she hated demons.
Messiah saw the same thing in these people.
"We are the Sacred Army of the Kingdom of Saint, and we have been in the quarantine zone for almost half a month! This disease is not contagious at all! "
Messiah raised her voice and shouted to the crowd. This was one thing that Messiah could be sure of. She was not protected by the holy light, but she had treated hundreds of patients and was not infected by the plague.
The agitated crowd was suppressed by Miser's voice because Miser stood in front of the woman. The female knight's resolute gaze was enough to make any cowardly person afraid to look her in the eye.
But this calmness did not last long, and the panic in the crowd was ignited again because of a voice.
"Grey … Grey Whisper! He … was infected by that person from the Land of Frost! "
This voice came from the crowd, and the crowd once again entered a state of panic.
At this moment, Messiah smelled a conspiracy. She used her mana to activate her 'third eye'.
"Judge!"
Messiah instantly saw a figure surrounded by grey mist in the crowd. This figure looked like an ordinary citizen, and he was holding a strange syringe in his hand.
After the Judge was recognized by Messiah, he wanted to turn around and escape.
Messiah pulled out his longsword, and golden inscriptions appeared on the blade. When Messiah stabbed the longsword into the ground … A magic circle instantly appeared around the Judge's body, and light chains instantly bound his limbs.
"Where's the infected guy?! What's going on here! "
As soon as Messiah bound the Judge, a group of knights in black heavy armor appeared on the other side of the street.
"City guards … This plague actually … Wait, this has nothing to do with her."
Messiah turned around to communicate with the city guards, but these people in black heavy armor did not care about Messiah at all. They directly went in front of the woman, grabbed her arm, and tried to take her away.
At this moment, Messiah could only remove the magic that bound the Judge, and turned around to grab the knight's wrist.
"The source of this plague is not these people, but a group of Judges hiding behind the scenes." Messiah's power was far stronger than the knight's.
"Let go! Sacred Army … "
"I received the order from your city lord to cure this plague. She is my patient!" Messiah had now learned to use his authority.
The knight was a little hesitant when he heard that it was the city lord's order. Another voice sounded behind him, causing him to loosen his grip on the lady's arm and slowly retreat to the other side.
"I asked you to cure her, not to let a dangerous infected person roam the streets."
The city lord, Sir Kenicker, stood at the end of the Jie Capital.
"They're innocent! The one who spread the plague is … "
Myrcella turned around to look behind her. The Nephilic Judge had already disappeared into the crowd, leaving behind another peddler with the same festering symptoms.
"Who? I now suspect that you are poisoning my people. Arrest them! " He did not give Messiah any time to explain himself. The surrounding knights immediately rushed forward and grabbed Messiah and the woman's hands.
"My lord, His Majesty has sent an envoy to the Blossom Square to watch a performance," the messenger half-knelt on the ground and raised a scroll high in the air.
"His Majesty?" Sir Kenneth picked up the scroll and began to browse through its contents. Misai took the opportunity to break free from the two knights' restraints and knocked the knight who grabbed the woman to the ground.
They had underestimated the strength of the Sacred Army's commander.
"Let's go." Messiah knew that it was useless to explain himself, but it would be worse if he was caught.
Messiah carried the woman on his back, and the heavily armored knights could not catch up to him. They could only watch as the Sacred Army commander disappeared around the corner of the street.
"Don't worry about her." Sir Kenicker closed the scroll in his hand and said to the people around him, "Let's go to the Blossom Square. I want to see what that cowardly king has planned for us."
On the other side, Messiah ran into a small alley with the woman and bumped into a soldier from his army.
"Leader!"
Messiah had been broadcasting the whole time, so her members immediately rushed over when they saw that she was in danger.
