Doctor Player Chapter 91
“Thank you so much for coming! Please save the villagers!”
“Oh no. Wake up.”
Raymond shook his head in embarrassment.
But it wasn’t just the boy lord.
The charred people of the territories also approached Raymond and knelt down!
“Please save us.”
“Huh. I don’t want to die.”
“Aww.”
Soon, Yeongji turned into a sea of tears.
Hearing their cries, Raymond clenched his fists.
‘Can I make it?’
I honestly don’t know if I can solve it or not.
We still don’t know the identity of the epidemic.
But he bit his lip.
‘I’ll definitely solve it somehow.’
So that no one will die in vain.
Because he is a ‘therapist’ who is responsible for saving people’s lives.
Raymond was so determined.

The mountain overlooking the Lanton estate at that time.
The ringleader of this conspiracy, the man in the white suit, ‘White Sox’, was wearing a fishy smile.
“Elimination is going to start?”
“Yes, it seems that the manor will be set on fire soon.”
“Kuk-kuk. Foolish bastards. We don’t even know if that’s what we want.”
White Sox laughed profusely.
“They can’t even dream of it. That this is not an epidemic.”
It was an incredible story!
Isn’t the disease circulating in the Lanton estate not an epidemic?
“There’s no way ignorant Houston bastards would notice. They will be terrified and rush to burn the manor.”
“This Lanton estate is just the beginning. We’re going to spread this ‘fake plague’ all over the kingdom of Houston.”
White Sox said in a pleasant voice.
“The Houstonians don’t even know if this is a fake plague, and they will burn countless estates with their own hands. Before the war even starts, they’ll be all over the place.”
This was the true nature of the conspiracy plotted by Archduke Berard!
Spreading a fake plague and devastating the Houston kingdom!
The ignorant Houstonians will burn countless estates with their own hands in fear, and they will collapse before they can fight in confusion and fear.
‘As expected, His Highness the Archduke Berard. Bundap-kun, who slaughtered his political opponents through all sorts of schemes and sat on the throne. To come up with such a great plan.’
It was when I was admiring it.
A subordinate came running with an urgent face.
“A person just entered the Lanton Manor. It looks like Baron Pennin!”
“Baron Pennin?”
White Sox rolled her eyes slightly in surprise.
Raymond de Penin!
He was a person who had set many conspiracies aground.
The only thing Archduke Berard cares about.
“Okay.”
“but?”
“There is no chance that even a bastard will see through this conspiracy. As long as he doesn’t even know alchemy.”
alchemy.
White Sox said a strange word.
‘He seems to be a fairly well-informed guy, but he’s a healer anyway. There’s no way a healer knows alchemy.’
White Sox was confident.
He would have no choice but to watch people die in despair.

“Patients are gathered in the town hall over there.”
The boy lord led Raymond.
Raymond tilted his head at the young lord’s silver hair.
‘It’s a face very similar to someone I know.’
Raymond thought of a person who had nothing to do with this place.
Marquis Aris.
The leader of the Royal Knights and one of the most powerful knights in the kingdom with the highest level of sword expert, he had silver hair like that.
The young lord seemed to notice Raymond’s gaze and spoke modestly.
“Silver hair. It’s an unusual color, isn’t it?”
“ah…no.”
“It was inherited from my father. Your therapist probably knows. It’s the Marquis of Aris.”
“…!”
Raymond rolled his eyes in surprise.
Why is the son of Marquis Aris, one of the most powerful people in the kingdom, in such a country estate?
The boy lord, Elmud, smiled bitterly.
“Two years ago, I was kicked out for being a shameful child. Unlike my father, I am a coward.”
“ah….”
“The title of Baron Lanton inherited the title from my mother, who was a baroness. This estate was also my mother’s estate.”
It was an unexpected story.
Elmud’s eyes filled with water.
“After being kicked out by my father, I was treating the locals here as family, but the plague came suddenly like this.”
Elmude nodded again and bowed to Raymond.
“Please, therapist! Please save our estate! The villagers are like my family now! If you save us, I will give you my all!”
It seemed more desperate because of circumstances.
Raymond nodded and said.
“Let’s see the patient first.”
Raymond, who entered the hall, unknowingly drooled.
It was terrible.
Many patients were moaning.
“How many patients?”
“There are over 30 people.”
Since it was a small estate with only about 300 people, a staggering number of people were infected.
‘Is the shield working properly?’
After checking the shield magic, Raymond began examining the patients.
‘All of them have severe neurological symptoms. I also have respiratory failure.’
In an instant, a bitter ominous feeling passed by.
A deadly infectious disease accompanied by respiratory failure came to mind.
‘Couldn’t it be the plague?’
Plague Black Death!
The Black Death, which can be said to be the worst plague of mankind, can show lung symptoms in this way.
‘If it’s the Black Death, it’s the end.’
If the Black Death hits, there is nothing Raymond can do.
Penicillin was developed, but unfortunately it does not work against the Black Death.
Although some antibiotics have limited efficacy, they cannot prevent a number of casualties.
‘no. The symptoms are different from the Black Death.’
Fortunately, Raymond found the difference.
It was a neurological symptom.
Most of the patients complain of neurological symptoms such as quadriplegia.
It was different from the Black Death.
‘…What kind of plague is this?’
My head was tight and stiff.
‘I’ve never heard of an epidemic like this.’
I thought about it over and over again, but nothing came to mind.
‘lets think! I need to figure out what the disease is before I can find a solution.’
Even if we ruminate on the knowledge of ‘general medicine’ and ‘internal medicine’, there was no infectious disease like this.
‘Maybe it’s an infectious disease that only exists in Ray Pentaina?’
There was a possibility.
Because this is a completely different world from the modern Earth.
The type of infectious disease was also different.
However, Raymond was also knowledgeable about Leifentina’s plague, but had never heard of such an epidemic.
‘What do we do?’
He bit his lip in excitement.
I saw patients gasping for breath and moaning in pain.
“ha. ha.”
“Aww….”
Seeing the patients in pain made my heart ache. But I couldn’t even guess the diagnosis, let alone a cure.
“Ho, is there any other way?”
Elmud, the boy lord, asked in a nervous tone.
Raymond was silent for a moment, then answered with a hard face.
“…It may take a little more time.”
The investigation has only just begun.
He promised to find a solution within 24 hours when the shield magic ends.
* * *
However, as time passed, Raymond could not find an answer.
‘I really don’t know. There was an epidemic like this in Leifentaina?’
Raymond muttered in disbelief.
For reference, if you look at his academic skills, ‘endemic science’ was an A rank.
He could be called an expert on infectious diseases with the knowledge he had gained through constant study of Leifentaina’s infectious diseases during his apprenticeship.
However, nothing was guessed at all.
‘It’s the first plague to appear in the Houston Kingdom. No, I’ve never heard of an epidemic like this in the entire Crusader Empire.’
In one way or another, such a terrible epidemic will leave a record in history.
But never heard of it.
Raymond couldn’t understand it.
‘It’s like a newly created plague. Is this possible?’
At that time, Elmude hurriedly ran up.
“It’s a big deal, therapist! The soldiers outside are giving you an ultimatum!”
When I went out in surprise, Klein was approaching with a hard face.
“The promised 24 hours are running out, baron.”
“Princess Klein.”
“Personally, I respect the will of the baron for patients. But it seems difficult to give more time. Concerned about the spread of the contagious disease, neighboring lords continue to urge it to be eliminated.”
Klein’s face was badly damaged during the day.
In order to buy Raymond time, it seems that he spent a lot of energy trying to stop the lords around him from making gains.
‘damn. I can’t stop the erasure unless I give a clear solution.’
However, the identity of the epidemic has not yet been revealed, let alone a solution.
‘What the hell is it? A disease with neurological symptoms. I think I heard it somewhere.’
It is certainly not an epidemic that has existed before.
But the strange thing is that I have heard of a disease with vaguely similar symptoms.
‘But it’s not an epidemic. The name of the disease… ….’
did not come to mind clearly.
A vague memory came to my mind.
“It hasn’t been 24 hours yet, so please give me a little more time. please.”
“but….”
Just then, a soldier rushed in.
“It’s a big deal, Gongja-nim! Some of the soldiers have been infected!”
“…!”
Raymond and Klein looked at each other in amazement.
“What happened?”
“After a break, I suddenly complained of paralysis and collapsed. There are as many as 10 people.”
Klein said urgently.
“Looks like we need to start erasing right now. If this continues, the epidemic will spread out of control.”
The young lord, Elmud, who was standing in fright, was startled and spread both hands to block the front.
“You can’t burn innocent people to death!”
“Baron Lanton. It is unavoidable. The baron is also in danger, so please come out of the estate. Your Excellency, Marquis Aris, will be concerned.”
“Oh no.”
“There is no other way.”
Tears welled up in the blue eyes of the gentle-hearted lord at the fact that he had to burn the locals who had been living like family.
Raymond also looked helplessly at the estate.
‘You’re going to burn all the people in there? Are you innocent?’
He clenched his fists tightly.
‘Think of me! It can’t be that this is the first time this terrible plague has appeared! There must have been an outbreak in the past!’
But nothing came to mind at all.
No epidemic has ever looked like that… ….
‘for a moment.’
At that moment, Raymond suddenly changed his mind.
‘Isn’t this a contagious disease?’
There has never been an epidemic like this before.
then?
What if it’s not an epidemic?
