RE: My Dragon Girlfriend In The Dragonic Apocalypse
chapter-503

A few hours later, Blake was standing in the head doctor's office in the quarantine zone. "How is it? Did extracting most of the mana help?"

"It did. Their fevers went down, and they are stable. But they are now weak. The problem is the bacteria in the brain and heart. Some people still couldn't handle it. I believe those hit hardest are allergic to the kind of bacteria in them. Because mana is now infused into every part of our body, the reaction was so big that it caused many different symptoms. Sometimes multiple, which are the severe cases. But with the mana extraction, while it is a painful process, if they are awake while asleep, they feel nothing, which helps. It gives us more time to study the bacteria. The sample you gave us is really coming in handy for testing." The doctor replied.

"Alright, then, can you tell me what is going on with the red spots where the bacteria is gathered? Is it actually feeding off our mana or what?" Blake did not know if they had a chance to investigate this or not, but he was hoping someone had.

"According to the lab, the bacteria is physically changing the mana. It barely eats any of the mana itself, only enough to reproduce. But it is this reproduction process that is changing the mana itself. Our initial tests show that the actual power output of the red mana is stronger than the blue mana. We still need time to really test it all out, but it seems that we are witnessing the mana of this world undergoing a forced evolution of sorts. But what I am not sure of is what happens if the mana of the world all turns red. The environment itself might change and become a place where we can no longer survive." This was the worrying factor. It would be impossible to eradicate the bacteria from the air. It has already been proven that it is flying all over the place.

Blake had wanted to figure out a way to find the source of where the bacteria may be coming from, but there was no long line of bacteria leading to where it came from. It was more wishful thinking than anything. "Alright. Let's not do mana extraction on those who are not sick. Only those who are until we can either figure out a way to keep them from getting sick or remove the bacteria from their bodies completely. If the mana in the air is going through a forced evolution, then we need to be prepared for what is to come. As long as people are not getting sick, it should be fine. We will just evolve to live with both the bacteria and the new form of mana along with it."

"II believe that is all we can do. Think of past plagues and pandemics. We could not eradicate them altogether, but we could regulate them enough to allow people to live their lives. The makeup of the other races does not differ much from our own, which is why it is not just humans who are getting sick. In fact, humans are able to cope with it pretty well. Only a few have severe cases. Luckily for now, we have the means to prolong people's lives until we can figure out a way to allow people to live with this new bacteria." The doctor was glad that Blake even thought of mana extraction. It has helped reduce death by almost ninety percent.

"I will trust you all on this. We will limit lockdown since contact is not the case of spread. Even if they hide in their homes, there is nothing we can do to stop people from getting sick. Even this area is now free from quarantine. If something arises and we need another lockdown, let me know." For the most part, Blake was happy things were not as bad as they seemed. He had to hand it to the doctors here. Each one had worked hard over the past few days. People from different races, all of which were coming together, putting their minds to work, and trying to come up with solutions. It was something he was happy to see happen. Because it was not just allies but also enemies who had come together to work on this issue, the dragonic and even the Fairy Tyrant helped as much as they could. It was a sign that showed that peace was an easy thing if we just set aside the discrimination and greedy ideals.

While Blake's goal may seem greedy in its own right, he in no way wanted to control the lives of the people. He gave them homes and a way of living. If they took it, then good. If they left, then there was nothing he could do about it. But because of a mutual enemy, they were able to set aside their differences and come together and live peacefully without issue. He had seen many of the princes and princesses from the royal family dating dwarfs and elves. There were even a few dragonic girls who had taken a liking to the orcs.

Blake gave a few more instructions to the head doctor before leaving and headed to the red light district. "Oh? Lord, what brings you to our humble abode?" Yili asked as she licked her lips.

"I came to check how you were handling the bacteria in the air." Blake had been worried about those who lived off other means. Dryads were different from the rest as they were plant based life forms like the euruna.

"It has not affected us at all. While the mana seems to be slightly stronger, it has not done anything to affect my kind. Lord, more importantly, some of the girls have been wondering if you would let them watch as we fuck." Yili grinned mischievously.

Blake turned to see a bunch of different races looking at me with red cheeks and expectant eyes. This was not the first time Blake had been asked this. While he found it strange that these girls liked to watch, he did not mind. However, the rule was that they could only watch and nothing more. "It's fine. Let's go to the usual spot. Has the astral energy strengthened your bodies at all?"

"Very much so. We actually do not need to feed right now, but being able to feel our Lord inside us makes us dryads very happy. If only we could bear children for you." Yili was walking around on two feet with only leaves covering her privates. She stepped up to Blake and jumped up on to him, hugging his neck as she kissed his lips. She looked up at him longly as she whispered: "If only…."
