The first thing Negary saw was his own pair of high-standing bosoms. Since he used Lan Shanâs [Origin] to transmigrate, it was understandable that the body he transmigrated into was a female one. Either way, he would soon be able to create a viral body for himself and leave this body for Lan Shan.
ã From the images I saw before, this world seems to be a bit unusual ã
ã Their average height was much higher than normal, both their faces and names seemed to be Western, but they were most likely not pure humans ã
ã As seen from one of the first images, humans should have evolved from a certain long-eared species ã
ã I am currently lying on a bed, most likely the same body who was in bed in the very last image, but both the bald middle-aged man and the man who was called Dr. Sitia doesnât seem to be in the room ã
On the side of the bed was a basin, which was filled with a bright red liquid, apparently a mix of water and blood. Negary could sense a slight sensation of pain and numbness coming from the left wrist of this body, so most likely it was her blood in the basin.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
ã Bloodletting therapy? ã
This was a type of medical treatment that lacked any clinical research, but used to exist in early history in many places of the world.
ã It doesnât seem right ã
Negary silently listened and heard various voices from another room, one of which was the voice of Dr. Sitia.
âThere shouldnât be any issues, at least it would not act up again this month...â the following content of the conversation seemed to be sensitive, as Dr. Sitiaâs voice became slightly inaudible.
âFurthermore, I will not be able to provide treatment for miss Chloe again next monthâ Dr. Sitia apologetically said: âSir Farnate, I hope that you will be able to find another doctorâ
âWonât Dr. Sitia reconsider? After all, there arenât many who have your medical expertise in Lohrâ this was the voice of the middle-aged man, referred to by the doctor as Farnate, most likely this bodyâs father.
ã Was this because of a medical issue? Or because of another reason? ã
Lan Shanâs [Origin] easily took over this body without any obstruction from the original bodyâs owner.
ã Perhaps, this was due to the will of the world ã
âIâve made up my mind. Medical practice cannot save Lohrâ Dr. Sitia replied in a whisper, showing clear disaffection of this town.
If Killer J was here, he could definitely comment something like:
âWoodman Lu (Lu Xun), Iron fist Sun (Sun Zhong Shan), Chekhov, Bing Xin, Guo Mo Ruo, Conan Doyle and the rest would surely support you[1]â
Disregarding their conversation, Negary could occasionally hear the sound of horse carriages resounding from outside, but they all appeared to be in a lot of hurry, as if there was some sort of imminent danger.
The conversation soon ended, followed by the sound of a horse carriage leaving. The middle-aged man then came in together with a maid, saw that Negary was awake and sighed: âSo, youâve woken up?â
The bald man Farnate very quickly left, leaving only the maid Lunchances to clean the basin without any intention of talking to Negary, which confused Negary somewhat.
Farnateâs attitude towards his daughter was considerably strange, as he didnât express any care even when she was sick, nor did he try to talk to her after she had woken up, as if there was no need to talk to his daughter at all.
ã Itâs like an attitude towards a burdenã
ã And a burden that he simply canât discard ã
Negary determined.
ã This bloodletting therapy must be done once a month, or something would occur. From what Farnate had shown, his status should be quite considerable, the horse carriage arrived at the back door and not the front door, which means that this therapy was something that shouldnât come to light ã
ã From the images I saw, perhaps this is somewhat related to one of the monsters ã
Negary analyzed and quickly got to a possible truth, bit by bit.
ã Through bloodletting, it is possible to suppress some sort of monster-related sickness ã
The maid Lunchances swiftly cleaned up everything in the room, rolled a cart of food inside, then immediately left without a single word.
Negary could even hear the sound of a metal lock and chains being engaged from the outside. Quite obviously, this âmiss Chloeâ had been locked inside this room, completely suitable with his assumption of her being a burden.
After closely observing this body, Negary sat up on the bed. She was around 16-17 years old, from the reflection on the window, it could be seen that her appearance was quite decent.
The food for her wasnât of low quality, after finishing the meal, Negary walked up to the door and pushed it slightly, confirming that the door was extremely firm, as if it had been specifically reinforced. This door would make it hard for anyone to force their way out from the inside.
As he approached the window, it was as he had expected: this place was the second floor, the decorated frame of the window had also been reinforced by a metal fence to close it off.
ã There are a lot of claw marks on the sides of the bed, and theyâre considerably deep as well ã
Negary reached his hand forward, this bodyâs nails were extremely well-kept and spotless. He then crouched down and searched the floor, seeing that there were a few scraps of what seemed to be cotton stuck between the floorboards.
The only thing in this room made from the same material would be the pillow and blanket.
As Negary tried using this body to rip those items, he found that they were of decent quality, and that this bodyâs strength alone would not be able to achieve such a feat.
ã When the sickness acts up, this body would show characteristics of madness, as well as an increase in physical strength ã
A few moments later, the lock on the door was opened as the maid Lunchances came in to collect the utensils. Without paying any attention to Negary, she swiftly left and once again locked the door.
ã Iâve grasped the basic situation ãNegary had finished analyzing his current situation. The will of the world that was supposed to have appeared never showed up, it merely sent him a few pictures and arranged an identity for him, as Negary managed to understand their conversations earlier without any issues.
ã To further understand this world, I will need other clues ã
Currently, Negaryâs soul wasnât completely weakened like the previous time he traversed worlds, but this transmigration method obviously still had its issues.
ã The transmigration method needs to be improved further, as for the coordinates of other worlds, this world surely have some ã
Negary silently thought to himself. Since this world moved in a set orbit and had encountered the Disaster world in the past, there was a high possibility of it coming into contact with other worlds as well, simply by following its orbit.
ã This world is very strange; as this town alone seems to have a lot of issues ãNegary observed what he could about this world through the window.
All the structures in this town were constructed in the same style, with a large main road with narrow interlinking alleyways connected through ladders and stairs, causing the layout to appear very intricate and complicated, if someone wasnât used to this place, they would most likely get lost.
Looking from afar, there were marks of various weapons scattered throughout the walls of the main road, occasionally accompanied by patches of dried blood as well.
ã The most urgent thing right now is to probe the situation of this world, then collect the necessary amount of flesh to construct a viral body through a safe way. Constantly remaining in Lan Shanâs body wouldnât be a good idea, especially when this body is so clearly problematic ãlike always, Negary decided to remain in the shadow first, without clearly understanding this world, it would be best to stay cautious.
