There was a messy underground passage, and the originally carefully carved reliefs had been corroded by acid. Under one of the stone pillars, a conversation between a man and a dragon was surrounding a burning crucible.
A small young dragon with bronze-colored scales was working hard to convey moist breath under the crucible fire. Until the fire gradually shrunk and the temperature reached a range it could accept, it nodded with satisfaction, and then looked eagerly at the crucible.
The black-haired young man who was working hard on the configuration steps seemed to be waiting for his next order, as if he was obeying orders.
The mage girl on the side was speechless about how obsessed with money it was, but it was also the first time she saw that during the experiment, the main body of the material was actually allowed to feel and control the flame temperature. This was a good experimental idea. Looking at it,
Through the experiment, her thinking was suddenly expanded.
At this moment, Woody was carefully controlling the timing of pouring various reagents, strictly following the steps of the previous life, and meticulously completing the third experiment to the extreme. Finally, when the various materials in the crucible were fused together, they gradually transformed into
When the fresh dragon's blood, which was bright in color and smelled of blood, appeared with blisters, Woody's originally worried heart was finally relieved.
It’s finally done!
He couldn't wait to use the special tweezers and began to clamp the hot beaker and pour it into the prepared container. As the last drop of dragon's blood fell into the cup, the belated data appeared in Woody's field of vision.
——"Dragon Blood Secret Medicine (Rare)"
——"Effect: A product made of fresh dragon blood and various wild herbs. The creator's intention is to allow demon hunters to adapt to the dragon's bloodline, and the high-level magic potion developed thereby will have a certain effect after taking it.
There will be a certain period of rejection and adaptation, but when this period is over, you will start a new life. Although this period of life is only valid for thirty minutes, it can still give you a brand-new experience that you have never had before.
With the blessing of blood, all your attributes except agility will increase by 2 points. In addition to body transformation, you can also temporarily gain dragon vein specialties, "Breath of Anger", "Exhalation Barrier", "Dragon Blood Scale"..."
——"The power of the dragon is at my disposal - its breath, its power, its resistance, now! Let me use its power to crush you bastards! Just like you kill
Like those innocent villagers, I want to kill you with a more cruel gesture than you, why? Because I am a human being, I'm sorry."
——"Monster? I have always been a monster, but this time I have changed into a form, which I call a special fighting form! ——A demon hunter who does not want to be named."
…
After carefully sealing the reagent bottle and putting it in his arms, Woody couldn't help but smile when he saw Doni, who was blackened by the flames.
"Thank you, Doni, it worked this time."
As she spoke, she reached out and touched its little head, ready to rub its head like she used to do with cats. But this time, Doni turned her head away. Its expression was a little stiff, and its mouth was dissatisfied.
"Huh, even if you thank me, you can't touch the dragon's head casually. This point is emphasized in Dragon Heritage, because doing so will lose the dignity of the dragon. Only those dragons who are willing to become other people's mounts will do this.
And that’s limited to its..."
"Oh, that's it, I'm sorry."
Woody decisively put down his raised hand and thought again.
"What if I add more money?"
"More money is not enough. Can more money buy dignity? And there are so many people watching here. How should I get along with them in the future!"
Doni retorted righteously.
"In addition to the reward, shall I add 100 gold coins? But don't worry, these 100 gold coins are not given to you just to touch your head, but as an extra payment for your hard work, so there is no need to spend money.
If you let me touch you, if you don’t pay me, it’s not an insult to your dignity, right?”
The potion was successfully configured. Woody, who was in a good mood, stretched out his hand and made a number. This number immediately made Donnie, who was about to say something else, immediately embarrassed, and what he said made Donnie unable to turn around for a while.
Come, but when it heard that there were more gold coins, it immediately nodded in agreement.
"you're right!"
If you don't give money, it's not an insult; if you give money, it's not robbery.
This wise saying exists in its dragon heritage, which is why many metal dragons have such good reviews. Like most other evil dragons, they just grab it without saying a word, while most metal dragons either wait for the ship to be in danger,
Take the initiative to rescue them, or help them drive away pirates in order to get rewards. Regardless of their departure or intentions, they are standing on a firm moral high ground.
"Okay, remember, I'm not letting you touch your head this time for anything else, but as a reward from me."
The little baby dragon held his head high and said with an arrogant look.
Although this arrogance was quickly interrupted by the chaotic hand shadows, and turned into a look of squinting, trying to enjoy... the expression of a professional masseur serving an old man.
Obviously, the research that dragons and cats are similar to some extent is not based on the groundless research of those scholars.
After satisfying his hand addiction, Woody stopped being addicted and spoke directly and seriously.
"The break is over. Now we have to continue to work hard and continue to perform our duties. There are still seven materials. I hope these can be as successful as this time."
However, the only response to him was the slightly resentful look in the little dragon's eyes, which seemed to say that you are happy enough... but I am not happy enough...
After ignoring this little hiccup, the rest of the situation proceeded in an orderly manner. With the success of the first experiment and a dragon-shaped temperature controller, Woody's confidence in making the dragon's blood secret medicine was back to its highest level.
The beginning.
The remaining seven materials lived up to expectations, allowing him to successfully complete five of them. The remaining two were still due to the failure of the secret medicine due to force majeure during the fusion. Otherwise, Woody could even be a master-level pharmacist.
100% success rate to reach the rare level.
As he put away the experimental instruments one by one, the preparation of the potion came to an end. His harvest changed from ten materials to six bottles of dragon blood secret medicine and one semi-finished product. The remaining three were all scrapped, but
This is already a terrifying success rate.
Of course, in addition to experience, this is not entirely his strength. It is also mixed with a little luck. After all, in addition to his previous experience in refining potions, there is still a living dragon on site to help control the temperature. Otherwise, just
Relying on his experience and techniques, it is still unclear whether three out of ten copies will be successful today.
At this time, rows of data displays suddenly appeared in the retina, and the top one was.
——"Failed to refine the potion!"
——"You have refined a semi-finished product of a rare level potion, and your skills have been improved to a certain extent!"
——"Alchemy +1"
…
The following are successful.
——"Refining the magic potion was successful!"
——"You successfully refined a rare-level magic potion, and your skills have been improved..."
——"Alchemy +3"
…
There are ten items in the series, which were not revealed until Woody collected all the instruments, and the alchemy points on the panel also skyrocketed from 38 points to 65 points, but this is normal, after all, rare-level potions are not that easy to refine.
, today’s conditions are not many that could be achieved in the previous life. To a certain extent, it can be regarded as leapfrogging monsters. It is reasonable to have more experience.
It was at this time that Ruiya spoke.
"My Lord asks you how long it will take for it to end. It can stop the black dragon from transmitting messages, but there is no guarantee that it will not be able to stop it from going out to find the high priest of the temple."
Only then did Woody realize that the demigod, who was chirping like a lark, had not spoken for a long time after seeing the black dragon, apparently to prevent the message that was supposed to be sent from consuming a lot of its power.
Thinking of this, Woody replied with a dull expression.
"Don't worry, it won't be long before it can no longer speak."
Slaying the dragon was inevitable. He had never thought about retreating or taking a detour. Of course, he had no intention of bribing this colorful dragon like he bribed Duny. Their evil and changeable nature were famous throughout the multiverse.
, it is better to believe that they will keep their promises than to believe in the devil's contract. Although they all died of stupidity, the former can at least be excused by the devil's cunning rather than inner luck.
Ruiya didn't say anything after hearing this, and hurriedly went to give Quetzalcoatl an answer. Although she didn't spend much time with Woody and others, judging from their behavior along the way, what she said was still very convincing, and even more so.
What's more, they don't look like people who are dazzled by profit. The side they show to her is more calm and cautious.
"Shall we do it now?"
Cecil looked at the deep pit at the end of the corridor, which seemed to be unresponsive. There was a little inquiry on her face, or eager to try, especially after seeing Woody finishing the potion, she even looked at Woody's face intentionally or unintentionally.
The waist seems to be saying, start quickly, distribute medicine quickly, and prepare supplies.
For a moment, she had forgotten that she was the nominal commander of the team. After traveling with Woody, she realized that she had not spent much time as a leader, and she was influenced by him intentionally or unintentionally.
However, no matter how it affected her, she was a little happy with it, especially when she heard that the effect of the dragon's blood secret medicine was to allow humans to temporarily possess the power of dragon-veined creatures, which made her a little jealous.
There is no record of this kind of potion in the National Library of Navia, known as the crown of Arsenrant wizards. Dragon-veined creatures can only be changed through experiments and injections, and they also have uncontrollable and irreversible characteristics. The creatures often become violent.
And lose their minds, even the most docile domestic dogs.
And if what he said the dragon's blood secret medicine can achieve, if it is used for mass production, then why would Navia have to compete with white dragons and frost giants for a bite of food in the icy and snowy territory? You know, their angry...
The most important task of the winter merchant group is to transport food from the south back to the north, in order to avoid the impact of famine caused by the ice disaster in the north.
Every year, many people freeze to death and starve to death in Navia. Even in the capital of Navia, Komilan. Although Komilan is a famous mage city in Asenland, there are still some people who die every day.
Neither meal is guaranteed.
Mages cannot take care of everyone, and most mages will not pay attention to those people. Of course, Cecil also understands that this is the rationality of mages at work. They understand that bottomless help promotes laziness, and most of them
Most mages are nobles and cannot empathize with the common people at the bottom. In their view, the death toll in the ghetto is just a number placed on the parliamentary paper.
Woody saw Cecil's curiosity and desire to explore his dragon's blood secret medicine, but he was not as much as she thought, so he just laughed and dismissed her idea.
"You ordinary humans can't use this thing, it requires a special body."
"Special body?"
Cecil asked curiously, looking at Woody at the same time, and found that although he looked very special, there was a sharp and solemn aura on his young face that did not belong to his age, and in other aspects, he was simply better than she had ever seen.
The normal people are much more normal. Anyway, they are much more normal than those savage and muscular men in the North who always bulge their chest muscles and have arms as big as beef tendon.
"I'll explain it to you later."
Woody didn't want to argue too much on this issue. The profession of demon hunter was difficult to describe clearly in just a few words. If possible, he wouldn't mind sowing the seeds of demon hunter in Arsenland. After all, he once served as a demon hunter.
The path that the advanced "Purification Blade" serves is to eliminate evil "tumors" that should not exist in the world. This is also the reason why it is recognized by the will of nature.
Although he doesn't know what will happen to Asenrant in this life, he would be satisfied if he could delay the destruction of this world a little.
"Now let's leave the corridor and go to the botanical garden. You will wait for me at the door later. Cecil, you will use magic to find such a plant. The color and appearance are..."
Woody laid out all the plans in his mind in an orderly manner, while others were a little confused. For example, how did he know that the dragon would pass by that place, and how did he know where the dragon would sneak attack?
It’s almost as if the vision has been rehearsed, but in the photo, the main members of the team, Caverman and Cecil, recognized it. Even though the spirit of nature was a little disbelieving, they still nodded helplessly, expressing their respect for Woody’s life****
It didn't take long, and Woody had made some preparations, but it wasn't too late to wait until the plan changed. After all, it was all harmless adjustments, and the final result would be the same.
…
The black dragon Beast was a little irritated at the edge of the pit, stirring the feathered snake bones that it had excavated. The corpses of these once arrogant creatures were arbitrarily manipulated into the postures it liked under its claws, but it still failed to relieve the pain.
It's irritating.
"Why hasn't that guy old Kesuo replied yet? He doesn't even care if there are rats in the house."
Although it is fierce in the tunnel, it knows that it is too difficult to defeat them without destroying the temple. These adventurers are not mortals who can be crushed to death at will. If they do not come out in the narrow passage,
There was nothing it could do. There was no way it could turn into an earthworm and burrow in to fight with them. Therefore, after seeing that its breath was ineffective, the black dragon gave up the idea of a head-on battle.
At least we have to wait until Koso, the nominal owner of the temple, can solve it.
But what he didn't expect was that the information sent out was like a stone, as if dead.
But the soul mark is still shining brightly, obviously he is still alive.
Deliberately failed to read back?
Damn it! Then I don’t care! I’m not the dog raised by that old guy Keso. If it weren’t for Lord Tiamat...
Thinking of this, Best could not help but grit his teeth, and with a force of his claws, he crushed the most played skeleton in his hand.
However, at this time, its outer ears moved slightly, and it immediately sensed that something was approaching the edge of the tunnel.
Best's face suddenly became happy, these little turtles actually went out!
