Chapter 651
The sudden and unknown disease on the island made everyone panic.
There was no specific medicine or even any feasible treatment. The patient was covering his abdomen
rolling around in abdominal pain, foaming at the mouth, shortness of breath and unable to eat. His face
and eyes turned yellow and he was severely ill.
“He should have been infected with the bacterial virus in his intestinal tract…”
“We can’t build a laboratory on Barbarian Island. Not knowing what kind of bacteria and virus it is, we
can only take some medicine to blindly test it.”
“We divided the patients into several experimental groups, and none of them improved after taking the
medicine. The patients who took the antibiotics were slightly better, but we don’t have enough drugs…
No, no, none of these treatments could be used.”
The people in the palace were so busy that they did experimental analysis without sleep. They couldn’t
come up with a good plan so everyone was anxious and restless.
After three days and nights of emergency treatment, there were some sad news and some progress in
the research.
“So far, there are 521 people infected in the palace, with 52 deaths. As for the Barbarians infected
outside the palace, there are 3522 people and 1 death.”
Gary stayed up all night to sort out the data from all sides and his eyes were red. There was no
computer on the original island so it took lots of time and effort.
“The Barbarians are strong. Even if they get sick, they won’t get worse easily. The Barbarians got sick
because they drank the river water.”
“We speculated that the source of the palace disease is related to the river water. The first patient ate
fish in the river the day before he was ill.”
The river was the cause of the illness.
Gary and the others were also helpless. “If we took water samples for analysis as normal, we would
soon know what the source of the disease was, but there was no equipment on this island.”
“Antibiotics works, but we only have two bottles.”
Now their conservative plan was to inform everyone not to drink the water in the river.
But this was not a long-term solution. Without water, they, the Barbarians, and all the creatures on the
island would be affected, dying of thirst and illness,
Crabbie said with a more serious expression, “Besides, we have confirmed that this disease is indeed
contagious. The first batch of patients was infected because they drank polluted river water. They got
the abdominal disease and vomited. The bacterias in their vomit were spread in the air and most of the
patients in the palace were infected because of vomit.”
The illness could be transmitted through the patient’s vomit.
Everyone felt hopeless when they heard this. If they could not be isolated from the infectious disease in
time, the continent would soon have no creatures surviving.
What should they do?
How to deal with these problems?
Everyone sat at the big round table, writing down the data, looking confused.
They were silent and felt anxious.
“Where are you going?” Patrick suddenly shouted.
Gary and the others were also shocked by Patrick. They all turned to look at Christina, who had just NôvelDrama.Org is the owner.
stepped in outside the door.

Because of this sudden incident, everyone was suggested to stay in the house and not run around. The
Barbarians were strong enough to hold on. But once they were infected, the death rate was as high as
10%.
Christina went out of the palace to look for Samba. She was in a good mood when she came back and
didn’t expect Patrick to scold her so severely. She was shocked and didn’t move. She felt humiliated by
being watched by so many people.
She remained silent in anger.
It was only when Patrick roared that he realized that he had gone too far. He looked into her angry eyes
and didn’t know how to continue.
Charles eased the atmosphere and said, “Christina, there is no medicine for this disease. You may
easily get infected when you go out and that will be troublesome.”
Charles just said what was in Patrick thought.
“I’m fine.”
Christina did not want to continue the stalemate so she answered.
You’re just lucky now. Barbarians have strong bodies and immune systems. We can’t compete with
them. You’d
better not go out.” Charles advised her earnestly.
“We have just concluded that this disease can be transmitted through the patient’s vomit.”
Christina wanted to refute, but her expression was a little strange.
Patrick knew her very well and noticed that she looked strange. He immediately stood up and hurried
towards her to ask her.
“Stop!”
Christina looked a little flustered and shouted at him.
“Patrick, don’t come over. I, I accidentally came into contact with a sick Barbarian today. The Barbarian
vomited all over me.”
