When Duanmuhuai came to the Tribunal stronghold on this planet again, the place had already changed into a different look.

The castle occupied by the Astra Militarum has not changed much, except that they have added a reactor below to supply energy——Of course, considering the Inquisition's principle of making the best use of everything, this thing

It can also turn into a huge bomb at any time and completely destroy everything here.

Near this castle is a prosperous town.

This was originally an abandoned town. The homeless and prisoners rescued from the Orcs by the Astra Militarum became the first residents here. They repaired the wires and brought light to the place. Now this town

They are also becoming more and more prosperous, and they use the currency standard among homeless people to conduct trade - of course, the entire land belongs to the Inquisition, and any homeless people who want to live here must go through the review of the Astra Militarum, and any disputes will

decided by the trial court.

Although heavily armed patrols of the Astra Militarum can be seen on the streets, the people here live a relatively stable life.

At least that's the case for now.

After Duanmuhuai arrived at the stronghold, he immediately summoned some influential homeless people here for questioning, including some traveling businessmen, as well as doctors and soldiers.

And from their mouths, Duanmu Huai finally learned the entire ins and outs of this matter.

"...In other words, this strange plague appeared suddenly? Hasn't it appeared before?"

After listening to everyone's reports, Duanmu Huai frowned and looked at the homeless people, who all shook their heads.

"Not at all. In fact, even a year ago, we had never seen a similar plague..."

However, at this moment, a homeless businessman raised his hand.

"Sir, in fact, many people suspect that this is a poisoning operation by the orcs, because they have been retreating steadily recently and found that they cannot defeat humans, so they used this method to release this new type of plague. After all, no one had it before.

Seen..."

"No."

However, at this moment, a man spoke.

"I should have seen similar plagues."

"oh?"

Hearing this, Duanmu Huai looked at the other person curiously. He remembered that this man seemed to be a soldier who had been rescued from the beast tribe's lair.

"have you seen?"

"Yes, when I was captured by those damn beasts and transported away, I once saw them being attacked by another group of beasts. Their whole bodies were emitting fluorescence, and their eyes were also glowing. At that time, I was still

I thought this was some new type of beast…”

"really!"

Hearing this, other people immediately started talking.

"I knew it must have something to do with those damn beasts!"

"They must have done it!"

"Okay! Be quiet!"

Duanmu Huai snorted coldly, and the homeless people below immediately closed their mouths obediently, while he stared at the void in front of him, frowning. The reason was simple. At this moment, a system message appeared in front of Duanmu Huai.

[Hidden Mission Opportunities——Survival and Destruction]

[A strange plague is spreading on this planet, and all life is threatened. Investigate it and eliminate it completely]

[Mission goal: eliminate the plague]

[Mission failed: the entire planet was infected]

so serious?

If Duanmu Huai was a little unconvinced at first, now he feels that this matter may be more serious than he imagined. If the entire planet is infected, then the only option is to issue an extermination order. And this

This means that this plague may be able to infect all life forms on the entire planet!

We must figure out what is going on with these damn plagues!

"I see."

Duanmuhuai thought for a moment and made a decision immediately.

"I will send a team of Astra Militarum to investigate the source of the plague. You can also inquire among the wanderers to see if there is any news about these plagues. Whether it is rumors or rumors, report them all. Also, starting from today

Starting from the beginning, quarantine facilities will be set up at the entrance, and anyone who wants to enter the town must undergo quarantine. By the way, at the same time, a physical examination will be conducted on the homeless people currently living here..."

"But sir..."

Hearing this, the doctor raised his hand with a frown on his face.

"We don't have enough manpower..."

"Oh, that's not a problem. I will give you an icon. You can set it up in clinics and quarantine houses. Anyone who is sick can go and pray to it."

"Uh...what's the use of this?"

"Maybe it can cure diseases."

“………………………………???”

If Duanmuhuai hadn't grown so fiercely, the doctor would probably have said, "Are you kidding me?" If you can cure a disease by worshiping the holy statue? Then what's the use of doctors like them?

Faced with the doctor's doubtful eyes, Duanmu Huai could only shrug his shoulders. There was nothing he could do about it. People in the technological world would generally feel weird hearing such things, but... who said there really is a belief in gods in this world?

?

"It's okay to take it as a comfort to your heart. It doesn't cost any money anyway, so just give it a little bit of credit."

"This.........Okay, I understand."

Although the doctor doesn't quite understand Duanmuhuai's thoughts, he also knows about the Tribunal's beliefs. After all, everyone living here must understand this. Of course, for them, the Tribunal's beliefs are not a bad thing.

Protecting mankind and exterminating any existence that threatens mankind is a matter of course for these people. Therefore, they do not think there is anything wrong with the Inquisition's belief, considering that it may have a certain effect on the patient's psychological factors.

, the doctor agreed.

But when he returned to the clinic, the doctor immediately regretted it.

"This thing...is really okay???"

Looking at the holy statue in front of him, the doctor was also speechless.

What was in front of him was a holy statue sent by the soldiers of the Astra Militarum. It had a cast-iron base and looked quite heavy. And above the base was a huge war hammer with its head on the ground.

, the hammer handle stands high, with three horizontal bars and a human skull pattern on it.

This is the icon of the Inquisition.

By the way, why is it a skull?

Looking at the holy statue in front of him, the doctor was speechless. He had long discovered that almost everyone in the Tribunal had skull marks on their bodies, whether they were the soldiers of the Astra Militarum or their commanders, and even the strongholds were everywhere.

They are all skulls. Of course, the doctor also asked about the reason, and the answer he received was that human skulls without mutations represent the sanctity, purity and purity of mankind, and represent the meaning of fighting for mankind.

Although this is true, this decoration really looks like a villain!

Originally, the doctor expected the other party to give him a statue of a beautiful woman or a cross, but could this thing... really be able to appease the patient?

I'm afraid if I didn't come in, I would have thought this was a morgue.

What should I do if my heart is not good and I get frightened?

"Doctor, what is this?"

At this moment, the nurse also came over and looked at the holy statue in front of her with confusion.

"Uh... This is sent by the Tribunal. It says it can calm the patient's mind..."

"...Won't this scare people?"

"Don't ask, this is not something we should discuss."

The doctor reluctantly advised the nurse and told her not to talk too much. The area occupied by the Inquisition was essentially a military rule. Here, the orders of the Inquisition and the Astra Militarum were the most important. They were not weak like the COG.

The government, in fact, at the very beginning, there were some homeless people who came here trying to incite everyone to confront the Tribunal, but the result...

Just look at the corpses hanging outside the gate.

The Inquisition does not accept negotiations, let alone threats.

Although the Tribunal is very high-pressure, for ordinary homeless people, there is no inconvenience in their lives. Apart from maintaining order and patrolling, the Astra Militarum will hardly cause any trouble to the homeless people. At first, these homeless people will still worry about the stars.

The Imperial Guard would bully them like those soldiers of the security government. Later, they found that as long as they did not violate the law, the Imperial Guard would not care what you did, let alone take advantage of them, so

I felt relieved.

If a nurse complains now, it doesn't matter if she talks casually, and she doesn't worry about anyone arresting her for it. However, out of politeness, the doctor stopped her from chewing her tongue.

After all, this is on someone else's territory, right?

Soon, the clinic opened, and the doctor returned to his office and started today's work.

For doctors, this is not a relaxing job. The most important reason is--insufficient medicines.

That's right, drugs.
