Douluo: Reincarnation of Leosli, punishing the evildoers
Chapter 425 Unprovoked Anger
Inside the small clinic.
"Strange, there seem to be a lot of cases like this this month!" Sigwen said, somewhat puzzled, after seeing off a patient.
“That’s true.” Lynette threw a basin of water away. “And all three people who were brought here today got angry for no reason, and they started fighting over the smallest of arguments.”
It's been like this for the past few days. A group of people were fine one minute, and then suddenly they started fighting, and they didn't even know why.
The same thing happened with these three today. Two of them were just having breakfast when one of them accidentally bumped into the other. Normally, all they would have needed to do was apologize, but unexpectedly, the two of them started fighting.
Then someone came to mediate. At first, he tried to calm things down, but for some reason, he got angry too and started fighting.
And it wasn't just the two of them; several similar incidents occurred this morning.
The Soul Arena, originally a place for spirit battles, has turned into a life-or-death struggle, a fight to the death. The referees, who were originally there to watch the game, have ended up "fighting" themselves.
There were also a few people chatting on the street, but somehow they started fighting. People around couldn't stop them and eventually joined in.
“I suspect they ate some poisonous fruit,” Lynette said calmly, adding that such cases were not uncommon.
"No way?" Siegwen's eyes widened upon hearing this.
"That's hard to say!"
"Could something have happened recently?" Siegwen frowned upon hearing this.
"I don't know either," Lynette said, also somewhat puzzled. "Let's observe a little longer."
“That’s the only way.” Siegwen nodded.
"what happened?"
As soon as Leosley entered the clinic, he pushed open the door and glanced at the slightly messy scene inside, his brows furrowing slightly.
“Duke, you’re back!” Siegwen’s face lit up with joy when she saw Leosley.
"Hmm." Leosley nodded slightly. "I overheard you talking about the patient. What happened this time?"
Before he left, the patients in the clinic were the same as before, nothing different. Why are they so strange now?
Higewen frowned and gently closed the medical record in her hand: "These past few days have been strange. Many people have suddenly lost control of their emotions, and they can start fighting over the smallest things. Some people have even started fighting for no reason. I suspect it might be food poisoning, or... there might be other reasons."
As Lynette tidied up the medicine bottles on the table, she shook her head and said, "It doesn't seem like ordinary food poisoning. These people are usually normal, but suddenly they've become irritable, it's like they're possessed."
“We’ve brought in a few more patients with fevers today, and the situation is a bit strange,” Lynette said. “We suspect they’ve eaten something poisonous.”
"Is that so?" Leosley frowned upon hearing this. "I'll go take a look."
Ultimately, this situation is not uncommon.
As he spoke, he walked into the medical room inside the clinic.
The three patients in the medical room all had flushed faces, as if they were about to explode at any moment.
They were all bound with restraints, and their expressions made them look like they were about to kill someone.
However, this is also for the safety of the patients; otherwise, they might have already harmed themselves.
Leosley entered the medical room, his gaze lingering on the three patients for a moment. Their hands and feet were tightly bound with sturdy straps, yet their bodies still writhed violently, their eyes filled with anger and rage, and low growls emanating from their throats, like trapped wild beasts.
A suffocating atmosphere filled the air, a mixture of sweat and the smell of medicine.
“Duke, this is the third case today. They are completely out of control and impossible to communicate with,” Siegwen explained in a low voice. “We have given them sedatives, but the effect is minimal. Their heart rates and blood pressure are abnormally high, as if some force has aroused the violent energy within them,” Lynette also explained.
“Duke, their symptoms are too abnormal. Although we have done our best to control them, their emotional fluctuations still cannot be calmed.”
Leosley's gaze was deep as he slowly walked toward one of the patients, placing his hand on his forehead: "This doesn't seem like a poison; it's more like the instinct for inner anger has taken over, making him extremely aggressive."
“Like barbarians,” Lynette said, frowning.
“Anger is a very powerful emotion, and if someone can artificially manipulate it, the harm it causes is immeasurable,” Leosley said after some thought.
In particular, the emotional center of the brain can become overwhelmed if it is occupied by anger for a long time.
Mild cases may result in emotional distress, while severe cases may lead to cognitive impairment.
"How's it going at the Imperial Palace? And what about the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy?" Leosley was particularly concerned about these two places.
Needless to say, if the Imperial Palace were to experience a similar situation, Tian Dou City would be paralyzed.
“We haven’t received any such news yet. Qinghe should let us know if there is any,” Xigewen shook her head.
"Our reserves of sedatives are limited. If more patients are sent here, we may not be able to cope."
Leosley stood quietly in the center of the medical room, his gaze sweeping over the bound patients. Their breathing was rapid, their eyes filled with uncontrollable rage, as if they might break free at any moment and tear everything apart.
Lynette wiped the sweat from her brow: "Duke, we've used up most of the sedatives, and the remaining stock is only enough for a few patients. If anyone else is brought in, we'll just have to watch them get out of control."
Higgin sighed softly, "There are twice as many patients today as yesterday, and everyone's symptoms are more severe. We can't even be sure what's triggering this frenzy."
······
Outside Tiandou City.
"It's so hot!" The Tian Dou guard at the gate was covered in sweat. "That's strange. It's supposed to be autumn, so why is it so hot?"
It wasn't exactly hot; the air was indeed cool. It was just that they were burning with anger.
“Yes, I feel the same way,” a Heavenly Dou guard chimed in. “The weather is so cool, why would we have this reaction?”
This reaction is like being consumed by anger.
"Could it be that people from the city are having a Soul Fighting competition?!" the guard at the gate guessed.
"I don't think so. They must be doing something else," a guard said after thinking for a moment.
"what?"
"I suspect there's trouble brewing in the city!"
"What's going on?"
"Let's do something big!"
Time slipped away quietly, and when the man, whose whole body radiated a dazzling dark orange light, arrived in Tiandou City, his mind seemed to be drawn into endless contemplation.
The towering city walls were a hundred meters thick! He couldn't help but wonder: what kind of being were they defending against?
Moreover, think about it: in the eyes of a true powerhouse, would such a city wall really be effective? (End of Chapter)
