Chapter 43: Taking Advantage of the Void
Back at the camp, Aske saw that the girls had returned.
Due to the large amount of kills required for the War Ritual mission, Asker chose to operate separately from the girls.
With their current level, as long as they don't go out of the trenches directly and then ride the face of the smoothbore cannon that blocks the door, there is probably no problem...... After all, the average level of the Azure Sword Mercenary Group is Lv.9, and various professions and sequences complement each other, which can almost cope with most battlefield situations.
Aske, who thought like this, was stunned to see Sidlifa's arms crooked, and Eleanor supporting him back.
"What's wrong with her?" Asker asked.
"Pick up shells head-on with tomahawks." Eleanor replied, "The arm is broken." ”
Asker: ..................
Well, speaking of recklessness, I'd like to call you Sidlifa the strongest.
Seeing that Asker's eyes were not right when she looked at her, the Norman girl hurriedly explained:
"No, it's not! I just want to throw the Axe of the North Wind out and freeze the cannonballs that come at me! ”
"Do you think that if you freeze the shell, its inertia of motion will disappear?" Asker asked.
"yes!" Sidlifa was indignant, "I didn't expect the shell to explode after freezing, but it broke my arm." ”
"Can this arm be saved?" Aske asked Eleanor.
"Nora has seen it, it shouldn't be fine, it's just an ordinary fracture." Eleanor replied.
"Hmm." Asker thought to himself that it was good that this guy had taken the "Giant III" potion, otherwise his body might not have been able to eat mortar shells.
Back in the tent to rest for a while, Peggy came to her, and happily reported to Asker:
"Asker, I've sensed the condensation ritual of the Plague Law!"
"Oh, how?" Asker was a little surprised, after all, it hadn't been long since this little girl was promoted to Lv.10, and she was able to sense the ritual of the law of plague so quickly, it seems that her talent in the path of the law is very extraordinary!
"I don't know." Peggy wondered, "I followed Nora to the wounded barracks to treat the sick, and it didn't take long for me to feel it. ”
Aske was speechless, the tone of the little girl's voice was so natural, as if to say, "I often watch videos of rocket launches, and before I know it, I will build rockets."
How could the ritual of the law be so easily sensible?
Perhaps this can only be explained by the fact that at the end of last year in Innsbruck City, when people were treating hordes of plague patients in the quarantine area, Peggy had a deep understanding of the concept of "plague".
And the recent incident in the wounded barracks was just a kick in the door that pushed her to reach the threshold of induction.
"Okay." Aske nodded and said, "What is the specific content of the mission?" ”
"Create some kind of plague and use it to infect 5 million people cumulatively." Peggy replied.
"Sounds like a lot of work." Asker commented.
Of course, the difficulty is secondary, mainly because the content itself is too frustrating.
It is said that in the original game world, many of the ritual tasks of the law were also quite frustrating, and later in order to pass the trial in harmony, a lot of uncomfortable tasks were blocked, and only those normal tasks were reserved for players to randomly induce and draw.
Now it seems that there is no harmony patch in this world.
"You're either going to get the flu or not." "It's contagious, it's not fatal, and even if the patient gets sick, they can still be alive and kick, and they can spread the virus to more places," Asker advised. ”
"Okay." Peggy nodded, "And where do you collect the flu virus?" ”
"Didn't you follow Nola?" Aske said, "Go and see the wounded barracks...... No, cold symptoms are usually minor. In this way, you stand guard at the quartermaster tent and see if anyone comes to buy cold medicine. ”
"Okay." Peggy nodded obediently and asked again, "Asker, after entering Lv.10, how do you level up next?" ”
"The next upgrade is relatively simple." Asker explained, "In Lv.1-Lv10, all you have to do is choose a bloodline and take the corresponding potion. Each bottle of potion consumed increases by one level. ”
"And the path of the law of Lv.10-Lv.20, all you have to do is to condense a law. Then accumulate the power of the law through the corresponding behavior. ”
"For example, if you condense the law of plague, all you have to do is keep creating new plagues and then use them to infect others. As the plague grows among the population, you'll have access to a steady stream of the power of the law to gradually move up the ranks. ”
"If the promotion of the Bloodline Path is a ladder, then the promotion of the Law Path is linear. Some transcendents are more suitable for cultivating the law, so their upgrade route is to rise exponentially, and of course, there are also those who rise more and more slowly. ”
"Oh." Peggy innocently asked, "Is the escalation of the laws of war a murder?" ”
"No, it's just war." "Engage in more wars without stopping," Asker said. From small village fights to battles between group armies, they can all contribute to the power of war-related laws. ”
Uh-huh. Peggy nodded thoughtfully, thinking that she had to quickly condense the laws of the plague and not be too far behind Asker's upgrade speed.
Seeing that she looked impatient, Asker patted her on the shoulder and admonished:
"Don't be so anxious. 5 million people is not a small number, you can first study what are the branches of influenza viruses that are more easily transmitted among people. ”
"After all, a good virus branch must not only be contagious enough, but also have sufficient environmental adaptability in order to spread farther as soon as possible."
"Also, don't mess with those deadly pathogens, unless you want to be hunted down like the Lord of Filth before."
"I won't." Peggy pouted and said, "I created new pathogens just to master the laws, not to kill people. ”
"That's good."
"Commander, are you free now?" Peggy suddenly invited him, "If it's okay, come with me to collect the flu virus." ”
"Won't Nora go with you?" Asker wondered. She couldn't have been more professional than me in this regard.
"She still has a lot of work to do in the operating room of the wounded barracks, and she won't be able to get out for a while." Peggy grabbed his hand excitedly, "Come on, let's go." ”
On the other side, Nola, who had just undergone surgery, watched the marching hospital bed lying on the wounded soldier being pushed out of the operating room, and she was also tired and relieved, wiping the sweat from her forehead.
It's strange, I don't know what's going on, the doctors who had served in the military before suddenly learned that she had rushed back from the city-state of Venis, so they all came to the door and begged her to help.
After all, it's a matter of saving lives and helping the wounded, and Nola, who has a kind personality, is not easy to refuse. It's just that Nola was also a little curious about how they learned that they had returned, so she couldn't help but find a few doctors to chat for a while.
It turned out that someone had written an anonymous note and dropped it in the doctor's room in the wounded barracks. It was just because of the recent war that the number of sick soldiers with various disabilities and infections had surged, so the military doctors hurriedly came to the door and begged her, a master surgeon, to come out of the mountain for help.
"This deed...... Who wrote it? Nora took out the note from the bag and looked at it carefully by the shadowless lamp in the operating room.
