Chapter 181: Lamia's knuckles
No wonder only the broth is still steaming, it turns out that it has been sprinkled with freshly poured water......
William looked at the weak-hearted little girl in front of him speechlessly, as if he saw himself wiping the TV with a wet rag when he was a child, similar to the little girl who added to the snake, he was really beaten up because the TV was exposed to the water at that time.
William shook his head and asked with a sneer, "What about the man who sent the letter?"
After hearing William's question, Daisy looked at the tips of her fingers and said:
"The uncle, named Bourne, hadn't eaten for a day, probably because he was so hungry, and then he ...... I took a big bite of my bread, and now I guess ...... Almost...... You should be waking up soon, right?"
“......”
Oh, the guy who whipped the kidneys, that's fine, count him a blessing in disguise.
Rubbing Daisy's little head and sending her away, William sat down at the table and reached out to open the crumpled envelope.
To his relief, although he was ravaged by the double destruction of broth and water, fortunately, the quality of the letter paper was very good, and most of the handwriting was still legible.
'Dear cousin, are you alright?'
I'm doing well now, Pomona is doing well, but her father isn't so good. ’
I fought with him almost every day, and recently my right hand was broken to the bone, so this letter was written in my left hand, and that bastard insisted that I stay in the grassland, and would not let me come back, and that he would force me to inherit his tribe, and I would beat me if I didn't want him. ’
'But don't worry, Pomona's father is running out of me, I'll be back soon......
William flipped through the crooked letters with a complicated face, and after removing the subjective judgments of his bearded cousin, what presented him was a completely different story.
To sum it up, it is probably - the stupid son-in-law ran in front in flip-flops, and the local tyrant old man carried a golden rice bowl in the back, and when he caught up, he fed him a mouthful of food, and after chasing for a while, he poured soup, and from time to time he had to help him wipe his mouth.
William couldn't take it anymore, he reached out and touched the lucky coin in his pocket, his mouth full of lemon fragrance.
So? Hans's lucky coin? There's only one coin left with me, and the lucky two have run away with Hans?
Picking up the last piece of paper with resentment? William found that there were only two lines of words on this piece of paper? But it was so badly soaked that several words were unrecognizable.
'Cousin? My mother brought Uncle Wilde to me and said she wanted to help me awaken @#%? I don't know what it is though? But it seems to be very *&%, cousin, don't worry, I'll go back to you when I beat Pomona's father, and then %&*&. ’
'Goodbye. ’
William closed the letter in his hand.
See you again with my aunt!
Although I don't know what you said at the end? But I don't think you'd better come back yet? When you get your father-in-law's family property in hand, it is estimated that the border troubles of Flange can be stopped for decades, and the right should be sent to make peace with you, and by the way, promote the integration of the people.
Smiling and accepting Hans's letter, he reached for the small wooden box? Jessica opened and glanced at it in her curious gaze.
In the small wooden box was a thin wooden stick the thickness of a little thumb, about four or five centimeters long? The color is an extremely deep black, somewhat like matte lacquer.
What is William's concern? The surface of this thin wooden stick is bark-like, and it looks numb? It's not mellow at all.
Didn't Old Man Cameron say to have a smooth surface? This roughness...... I'm afraid it's not very friendly, right?
He subconsciously guessed? Could this be the little rich woman retaliating, but after thinking about it, she has never seen the few remaining holy relics, what if the remaining holy relics are either not suitable in size or wild in shape?
However, thinking back on the weight of the small wooden box, William still thought that retaliation was more likely.
Removing the box itself, this small piece of numb and leprosy wood weighs about thirteen or fourteen pounds, and this burden seems to be a bit heavy.
William hesitated for a moment, but thinking that Old Man Cameron was probably a hidden seventh-order boss, he suddenly felt that this weight should not be anything to him.
Even if he doesn't add any physique to the few sequences he has mastered, he should be able to get more than seventy physique points when he rises to the seventh order, and he should not be able to get rid of his ...... Ahem, it's not overburdened, right?
Damn, why should I worry about an old man's part?
Shaking off the jumbled thoughts in his head, William took out his finger and carefully poked at the thin wooden stick in the box.
[Lamia's tail finger]
【Relic LV40】
【Saint: Lamia the Devotee】
[Stunt: Lamia's dedication, which is a part of the devotee's Lamia's body, is able to absorb a certain amount of negative attribute energy and expand the corresponding volume]
[Combat Skill (Unique): Nature's Grip 0/1, believes in nature's intelligent life, can awaken the will of the devotee Lamia, and briefly summon the phantom battle of her palm.
Please note that this phantom only has the power of one hit, and it needs to be soaked in the Fountain of Nature for three days to recover.
[Lamia is a strong ancient treeman, because of ......]
When he saw this, William felt that his lips were a little dry, this holy relic was simply made for himself!
Although the only combat skill was used, he couldn't get enough Fountain of Nature to "charge" it, so it could only be used as a normal item.
But it's enough to have that special skill of absorbing negative energy and expanding the volume, this thing is simply the most suitable weapon for yourself.
The more William thought about it, the more excited he became, such a suitable weapon was too hard to find, and I was afraid that there would really be no such shop in this village.
After all, theoretically speaking, with the exception of the Holy Relics that appear in "sets" of the Thirteen Scrolls of the Church of Knowledge, the abilities of all the Holy Relics are unique.
Let's not talk about whether I can get a similar holy relic or not, even if I can get it, I'm afraid I may not be able to have such a suitable ability.
But considering Cameron's rigid needs, William frowned and thought for a while, and felt that it was not necessary to have this holy relic. After all, what he needed was not the combat skill of this holy relic, but the special skill called [Lamia's Dedication].
This [Lamia's tail finger] is probably a part of the body of a dead Elder Treeman, and the rest of her body should have similar perks.
But the strange thing is that the combat skills of this holy relic are not weak, but he has never heard of anything like it, even if it was also used as some kind of "tool" in his previous life, but that tree man named Lamia should have more than this finger, right?
So there should be two possibilities, either Lamia's holy relic only has this one knuckle, which sank in the part of Old Man Cameron, or there are some similar holy relics, but only one of them flowed out of the Elven Forest.
Then the conclusion has come out, and whichever of these two possibilities is correct means that the probability of getting another knuckle is infinitely close to zero.
William rubbed the ring on his hand, becoming more and more determined to get his hands on it.
When she was done eating, Jessica left to rest and called Old Man Cameron out for a chat.
Ask him if he can use something else, anyway, there are five holy relics, how can there be a non-thorny one in it, right?
William pondered how to tell Karina as he opened the detailed description of [Lamia's Tail Finger] and continued reading.
[Lamia is a strong ancient treeman, because it grows in the breach of the shadow plane in the Elven Forest, so the body surface is not the usual brown of the treemen, but a deep black that cannot reflect the sun.
Because of the special growth environment, Lamia's body has a certain demand for negative energy, and must often enter the shadow plane to absorb negative energy, which is why it is disgusted by the Treants and other natural sequence lifeforms.
However, in the midst of the shadow plane's attempt to infiltrate reality, it was the disgusted Treant who first spotted the problem.
Lamia sacrificed herself to block the Shadow Plane's exit to the Elven Forest, and struggled for three days and three nights to buy time for the elves who were alienating and hostile to her, but she was the only victim of the first wave of Shadow because she absorbed too much shadow energy.
In honor of her sacrifice, the Elven Empress gave her newborn daughter the same name and addressed her as a devotee.
......
This is the tail finger of the devotee's right hand, which was accidentally broken by a mysterious mage who infiltrated the Elven Forest to hunt slaves, and the current Elven Empress Lamia personally shot and killed the mage.
However, the broken tail finger could not be reconnected, so the Elven Empress Lamia had to enshrine it at the foot of the natural ancient tree, and over time this holy relic was formed.
......
William's face is a little complicated, if he is facing that kind of situation, although he will not fall into the ground, but if he wants to give his life for a group of elves who hate him, it must be that there is no door, at most, it is a handful when he is soft-hearted.
Although the choice was different, it did not prevent William from respecting this behavior, and he decided to try to persuade Old Man Cameron to try to get him to exchange for another holy relic.
One is because this [Lamia's tail finger] really matches his own fighting style, and the other is also a bit ...... the way old Cameron uses it It's not very civilized, and it's too miserable for this noble devotee.
Playing with the thin wooden stick in his hand, William tried to mobilize some of the shadow energy and sent it in, and [Lamia's tail finger] gradually began to swell, and became heavier and heavier.
After absorbing about two percent of the shadow power of a first-order [Shadow Fighter], [Lamia's tail finger] had swelled to more than a meter long, and its diameter had also swelled to nearly ten centimeters, and its weight had reached a very astonishing level.
William waved the stubby stick in his hand and touched his chin thoughtfully.
I seem to know how to convince him to give up this thing.
