Sword and Sorcery and Martial Arts

Chapter 372 Drug Efficacy
After returning to the room, Rhodes took out the Ice Knight's straight sword from the space ring. After this sword made of sapphire appeared in the room, the temperature of the room dropped a lot instantly.

This sword is just a one-handed straight sword to the ice knight who is two tall, but in Rhodes' hand, it is like a two-handed long sword.

Rhodes held the sword in his hand and waved it lightly, a white cold air shot out from the blade and hit the wall not far away, forming a beautiful ice flower.

This sword is much more powerful than ordinary magic weapons.

Rhodes took out another steel dagger from the space ring, and the blade slid gently over the dagger, leaving an obvious mark on the dagger.

Cutting steel with this sword is as easy as cutting wood with steel.

This sword is an additional gain besides the reward for killing that demigod, because Al and Havar feel that they have contributed too little, so those things in Rhodes' space ring are all his exclusive spoils.

However, Havar insisted on the right to name the sword. On the way back, he thought of a few more suitable names, such as Winter Reaper, Frostbringer, and Snowfield Slayer, which sounded very secondary.

Rhodes could only accept the name Havar gave the sword, otherwise he would not have paid Rhodes the one hundred thousand gold coins, and finally the sword was named "Cold Night".

Because Harvar says the sword was born on a very cold night...

Rhodes took out the body of the ice knight and threw it on the ground.

Even though it is dead, it still exudes a coercion that can make ordinary people tremble.

After taking out the corpse, the tavern downstairs fell silent instantly, and Rhode quickly put the corpse back into the space ring.

It is better to find a place where there is no one in the future, and then study how to remove the armor from this corpse.

There was no condition to take a bath in the tavern. After simply washing his body with water, Rhodes sat on the bed and began to practice three-point return to vitality.

After he falls asleep in this world, he cannot enter the dream world and the conscious world, so he has no interest in sleeping, unless he is as sleepy as yesterday.

Rhodes practiced Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms for a period of time on the way here. Although he was not proficient enough to master it, he could still use it normally. He just didn't know if the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms had any obvious restraint effect on the giant dragon... …

In the afternoon of the second day, Rhodes left the tavern and went to the shop on the upper floor that he visited yesterday.

After opening the store door, Rhodes saw the girl still sitting behind the counter with a bored face.

"Master Morris has prepared the potion you need, you can go directly to the basement to find him." The girl said after seeing that it was Rhodes.

Rhodes nodded, and then he walked to the basement of the store with ease.

Morris was not busy on the alchemy workbench like last time, but sat on the sofa and rested with his eyes closed.

"You're here." He opened his eyes and looked at Rhodes, "I spent a whole night thinking about how to solve your problem, and spent another morning preparing the potion. Try the fruits of my labor. Is it in vain."

"Is there any danger?" Rhodes asked.

"Probably not." Morris stood up, picked up a crystal bottle on the table and handed it to Rhodes.

"Probably not? Are you so uncertain?" Rhodes reached out and took the crystal bottle, not daring to drink it directly.

"It's the first time I've seen this kind of situation, but I can guarantee that you won't die after drinking it." Morris explained.

"Then I'd better keep this bottle of medicine machine, and drink it when my problems are about to explode." Rhodes said.

"Drinking it now may work, but drinking it in a few days will definitely not work." Morris said.

"What material is this potion made of?" Rhodes asked looking at the crystal bottle in his hand.

"Very rare materials, the fat of mammoths, the fins of sharks, the bile of cave bears, the blood of giant dragons..."

"Wait, dragon's blood? Others may die if they drench it on their body, are you going to let me drink it?" Rhodes stared at Morris and asked. He didn't think he would be much special than others. It turns out that the dragon's blood might be some kind of magical acid.

"It's okay, I can't die if I drink it, if something happens to you with me, I will help you." Morris persuaded.

Rhodes looked at the blue lines hidden under his white skin, and felt the tingling sensation from these blue lines, like ants gnawed. He took the crystal bottle in his hand and drank it down.

"How does it feel?" Morris asked.

"I don't feel anything." Rhodes replied.

The next moment, he felt as if his body was on fire, as if his whole body was soaked in scorching lava. This feeling was far more uncomfortable than having a high fever.

"It's very hot." After Rhodes finished speaking, he immediately sat down on the ground, closed his eyes and began to operate the neurosurgery.

He feels that he has entered a very strange state, which usually occurs during a nap. He can see the surrounding situation, but his body cannot move. This situation is commonly known as "ghost pressure bed".

When he opened his eyes again, he found that he was soaked in a large barrel, which was filled with a liquid medicine of unknown composition, and the price should not be cheap.

Rhodes stood up and found that he was not wearing anything. He thought he was still conscious, but in fact he had fallen into a coma.

After seeing that the space ring was still on his hand, he climbed out of the vat full of liquid medicine, put on clean clothes, and walked out of the room, which was the lobby of the shop.

"You're finally awake." said the girl in charge of looking after the shop.

"What time is it?" Rhodes asked.

"You have been in a coma for a year." The girl replied.

"One year?" Rhodes said in surprise. If he had been in a coma for a year, his muscles would have shrunk.

And how did he survive without eating or drinking for such a long time?

"Humanity has won, so you can lie safe and sound for a year..."

"Stop joking with him." Morris' voice came from downstairs. He was coming up from the basement. "You've only been in a coma for less than a day, and now it's the next morning."

Rhodes glared at the girl who was snickering, then turned to look at Morris, "What happened then?"

"At that time, you sat on the ground and your whole body burned. The color of the flame was very strange, it was black. Even the stone bricks in the basement were burned through. I don't know why you were still unscathed after the flames went out. ’ Morris replied.

"Do I need compensation?" Rhodes asked.

"No, it was my mistake. It was the medicine I prepared that made you burn through the floor." Morris waved his hand.

"Do you need to pay extra for the liquid medicine in that bucket?" Rhodes asked again.

"Need, and you have to give me the money for taking a bath for you. I never thought that someone's body could be so dirty." The girl on the side suddenly said.

"Is it like black mud?" Rhodes asked.

"No, it's like coal powder," the girl said.

"Okay, how much are you going to charge?" Rhodes asked.

Morris waved his hand: "No, she was joking with you. But I will give you a suggestion, you'd better take it, take a bath as much as possible in the future..."
