My Liver Experience in the World of Cthulhu
Chapter 298 Miracle Medicine
With Crown's strong performance, the Chimera troops were recalled. Without the support of air combat units, relying solely on flying beast taming did not cause us any major trouble.
The flames were like blooming red lotuses, the sky was rendered orange, and the battlefield was filled with the scent of burning proteins.
After a while, the flying tame animals also returned one after another as if they had been ordered to do so.
Crown did not pursue, and kept hovering next to the airship at a high altitude. He secretly regretted that the killed Chimera fell into the enemy's camp and could not collect the bone marrow blood.
The silver marrow no longer has any effect on him, but it can be traded or rewarded to his subordinates, which are both good options.
Frost-like white light bloomed on the ground in certain areas of the camp, radiating out circular areas.
Kroun could see clearly that it was the aura of the magic circle.
After the magic circle was activated, the burning fire quickly became smaller and finally extinguished completely.
Frowning slightly, Crown understood that the frost magic circle should have been activated, so the incendiary bombs were ineffective and could only rely on bombs.
Before he had time to sigh, some stone towers in the enemy's camp lit up with a faint blue light, and groups of twisted gray shadows flew out from them.
The shadows ripple like river water ruffled by the wind, and finally disappear.
Crown immediately became vigilant and activated his spiritual sense to the extreme.
A faint stench began to fill the air, and the temperature dropped rapidly. He understood that those gray shadows were spirits released by the enemy.
He immediately felt uneasy. The troops in the air raid tonight had no plan to deal with the attack by the spirit body. He didn't know whether the magic circle on the airship's skin could stop the spirit body.
Without hesitation, Crown immediately activated the energy of life and released the golden light.
He transformed into an angel who came out of the sun. When the golden light lit up, golden "snowflakes" immediately floated around. They were the spiritual essence produced by the purification of evil spirits.
It's a waste, and there are at least a few hundred gold spirit coins collected.
Crown shook his head regretfully, and the wings behind his back flapped. He flew near other airships and released the low beam again.
Regardless of whether the magic circle embedded in the airship's skin can defend against spirits, he needs to do everything he can.
The cultists on the ground looked at the golden figures in the sky, feeling frightened for no reason, as if they had encountered a natural enemy.
Somla's face was gloomy. His spiritual sense was the highest among the cultists. He could more deeply feel that the radiating golden light contained powerful laws of light and fire.
Even the most powerful spirit body within the scope of the golden light is burned into pieces of spiritual energy.
Crown released a golden light next to all the airships, when he discovered that two large airships had stopped dropping bombs.
Feeling something bad in his heart, he flew to the airship and wielded the Fury of Thunder, violently cutting open the hatch.
He quickly walked through it and found that there was no one alive. Everyone had a look of horror on their faces. The water in their bodies had evaporated, as if they had been drying for many days.
Fuck, there are high-level evil spirits, probably reaching the silver level, otherwise it would be impossible to explain why the second-level transcendent who participated in the bombing mission died so quickly.
Crown immediately went to the cabin where the engine was stored, destroyed the machine, and then left quickly.
The airship lost power and fell toward the ground, getting faster and faster.
Crown left the airship and immediately roared.
The high-pitched voice penetrated the clouds and cracked the rocks, suppressing all other sounds for a time. This was the signal to retreat.
The airship that had no problem began to climb, and the large falling airship fell to the ground and exploded in series.
A deafening sound resounded through the sky, and the accidental airship was shaken by the shock wave and flew upwards.
Crown saw that the buildings where the airship crashed looked like piles of sandcastles, which were turned into rubble in the explosion.
He flew to the large airship that was bumping upward, destroyed its braking system, and caused another crash. These out-of-control airships could not be left to the enemy.
He then soared upwards and quickly followed the retreating airship.
. . . .
Crown returned to the command airship where Flanders was and sighed softly.
A total of six large airships and four small airships participated in the mission, and only one small airship and four large airships returned.
These airships have been accumulated by the Rhine City Diocese for several months, and most of the high-quality materials in the reserve have been consumed. It will take a long time to put together such a lineup.
He spent a lot of money in this battle. To release the golden light, he not only needed to consume the energy of life, but also needed to consume a certain amount of sunfire liquid.
If these consumed sun-fire fluids were made into golden light talismans and turned into talisman water, they would be worth three to four thousand gold spirit coins.
Flanders walked at the front to greet us and asked, "How is the battle going?"
"Not very good." Crown shook his head slightly:
“The incendiary bombs carried were restricted by the magic circle, and most of those injured and killed by the bombs were low-level transcendent beings and ordinary people.
The enemy released evil spirits and some airships were lost.
I killed a dozen Chimeras in the air, and the last two airships crashed and flattened two buildings with a radius of 100 meters. This was the biggest gain tonight. "
In short, this air strike did not complete the original mission goal, and our losses were higher than expected.
Flanders listened to the report carefully, compared it with the original plan in his mind, and said:
"No need to be depressed, at least we have a rough idea of the defense structure of the enemy camp. If no spirits appear, I think this mission will be very successful.
From this point of view, blatant bombing during the day would be more effective. "
The spirit body does not like sunlight and likes to stay in dark places. The sun affects the activity of the spirit body.
There was not much disappointment on Cavendi's face, and he said in a deep voice:
"There is a magic circle in the enemy's camp, and evil spirits are released from the stone towers in it. We can completely avoid the camp and launch an attack while the enemy is marching."
Lannister echoed: "A good plan. As long as it can kill the enemy and make their troops unable to move, it is also a good way to end the war.
What I want to ask is, did Mr. Crown really kill more than a dozen Chimeras? "
The warlock didn't believe it. It took a lot of effort for them to kill a chimera some time ago. There was no reason why the other party would become so powerful after not seeing each other for a month.
Crown shrugged his shoulders and responded calmly:
"My flight is more flexible than the Chimera, and my speed is faster than the enemy. I just need to chop off the Chimera's head with a sharp blade. It's easy."
Flanders smiled and said: "Okay, the task of protecting the bombing formation will be handed over to you in the future. Did you keep the Chimera's head in this operation?"
"Of course I'll keep it, these are all gold spirit coins!"
Crown smiled and nodded. In the space ring, there are 21 heads of Chimera that released the lightning ball.
With six thousand gold spirit coins in your account, you can earn much faster than slowly accumulating wealth by starting a business.
However, releasing the golden light consumes a lot of Sunfire Liquid, and the purified spirit flower is not obtained. The real profit from this operation is not that much.
There are not many chimeras left alive in the cultist camp, and he can't get much money from this.
It took a lot of energy and physical strength. Now that he is relaxed, Kroun feels a little tired:
"I'm a little tired, I'll go back and rest."
After he left, Cavendi said:
"Now it seems that even if these cultists rush towards the Holy Fire Cathedral, we can still defend ourselves."
Flanders was not so optimistic and shook his head indifferently:
"Perhaps you haven't noticed the cost of war. The unit price of consumed ammunition is not high, but the quantity is large. These high-quality bombs cost thousands of gold spirit coins.
The crash of the airship and the compensation for those killed in the war constituted a large part of the expenses.
Even if the three forces jointly bear it, it is still a huge expense. Victory in the war will also wipe out all the wealth. "
. . . .
The next day, the airship formation returned to Rhine City, and Crown received his reward, six thousand gold spirit coins.
He took out a thousand gold spirit coins and customized a small airship to prepare for emergencies.
However, the orders from the Strange Object Manufacturing Association are now for military use, and he needs to wait until the end of the war to place the order.
Not staying in Rhine City for long, Kroun meditated on the golden light spell and waited until most of his energy and life energy had recovered before he said goodbye and left.
He unleashed the magic of flying and flew to Hamers City. Under the sun, his wings shone brightly, leaving a gorgeous golden afterimage behind him.
The Fire Cube controls flight and he summons a golden wall.
[Golden Light Curse: 138564/150000; Level 3]
[Flying Thaumaturgy: 1124/15000; Level 2]
Purifying the spirit body increases the proficiency of the Golden Light Spell, but not much, only more than 400 points.
Now that the level of the Golden Light Spell is getting higher and higher, the proficiency gained by purifying low-level spirits is very little.
Since he had to fly at full speed during the battle, his proficiency in flying thaumaturgy increased by more than 800 points, which was his biggest gain from this trip.
Soon, the alienated land is in sight.
Crown stopped in the central area and used the golden light to illuminate his liver for a while before returning to Hamers.
. . . .
Bly, Tulip Manor.
A torch laced with wormwood burned in the basement, and the flames danced, leaving twisted shadows on the walls.
Victor stood in a stone room, his face flickering in the firelight.
An altar was built on the ground, and grooves were carved around the altar to form a complex magic circle.
The grooves were filled with silver liquid, shimmering like a lake illuminated by moonlight.
On the altar, a bruised black bear was tied tightly with iron chains and let out a low and angry roar.
Victor waved away the servants in the room and began to chant a spell.
His voice was sometimes low and sometimes high, and the flames flickered and flickered with the rise and fall of his voice.
The silver liquid in the groove turned blood red and flowed rapidly, like a rushing river.
There were waves rolling in the 'river', as if there were some unknown creature bound inside.
The roar of the black bear became smaller and smaller, turning into a howl of fear, and the low trembling sound seemed to be experiencing unparalleled pain.
When Victor's spell ended, the black bear suddenly stood up and opened its mouth as if to roar.
Its movements were frozen, its eyes quickly lost their luster, and the expected sound never came out.
Taking out a handkerchief to wipe the sweat from his forehead, Victor muttered: "This magic circle is a bit evil. Did it fail?"
He caught a second-level monster and used the magic circle to refine the source of life.
At this time, for the first experiment, there is no need to choose third-level creatures. Third-level experimental products are too expensive.
While he was doubting, the magic circle lit up with a dense spiritual light, and drops of silver liquid flowed out from the pores in the altar, dripping into the rune crystal bottle prepared below.
"It's done! There's no problem with the magic circle. Now we just need to try to see if it works."
Victor clapped his hands and solemnly picked up the crystal bottle.
The silver liquid is like mercury swirling in the bottle, exuding a different kind of fragrance.
He couldn't help but swallowed, the smell was very attractive.
Resisting the urge to swallow the silver liquid, Victor quickly walked out of the basement and found his old butler Gray.
Gray is a second-level transcendent who has been with him for more than sixty years. He has such white hair and countless wrinkles on his face.
"My lord, what do you want from me?"
Gray bowed and saluted. He was too old and had left the Earl to live in the countryside several years ago. Unexpectedly, the Earl sent someone to invite him back to Tulip Manor a few days ago.
When he arrived at the manor, the count was clearly here but he was nowhere to be seen, which made him uneasy.
When he saw the count today, he carefully looked at his face.
Victor sat on the chair, leaned back comfortably, smiled gently, and said enthusiastically: "Please sit down."
"I don't dare, Lord Earl, I can just stand, the rules cannot be broken."
Gray was even more suspicious. In the past, he had always stood while talking to the earl. How could the butler be on an equal footing with the master?
Victor nodded slightly, satisfied with the respect of the other party:
"Old Gray, this time I got a miracle medicine from the church, which is particularly effective for the elderly and can regulate their mental state.
Thinking of you following me for many years and fulfilling your duties, I bought some more from the church and gave them to you. "
As he spoke, he handed the crystal bottle to the other party.
Reward, the sun comes out from the west, right? !
Gray knew the earl's character very well. He believed that it was the duty of servants to perform their duties and rarely rewarded them.
Besides, he has been away from the earl for several years, so the reward is not his turn.
The bottle is a rune crystal bottle, often used to store valuable potions. There is a shallow layer of liquid with a silver halo inside.
"How dare you accept the Count's reward without merit? It's better to give it to other capable people who can do things for the Count."
It’s not easy to find a suitable experimental subject. You are still my choice. Victor’s eyes sparkled and he smiled:
"This is for you, why not open the bottle and take a look first."
Unable to resist, Gray opened the lid of the crystal bottle.
An alluring fragrance filled his nostrils, and he felt like a traveler who had walked in the desert without drinking water for several days and saw the clear lake water in the oasis.
The desire in his heart arose and he could no longer suppress it. Gray raised his head and drank the 'magic medicine'.
Like a sweet spring watering the long-drought land, he felt the pores all over his body let out a comfortable groan. He closed his eyes unconsciously, wanting to savor this feeling.
Victor sat down at some point and saw the old butler's wrinkled skin being filled out, becoming firmer and plumper, and the roots of his pale white hair turning into the brown color of his youth.
The things under the Pope’s crown are really useful!
