Chapter 226: Monster's Poisonous Scheme!
In the hall of the stone house, Lawson sat down slowly by a fire in the corner, carefully untying the gauze from his shoulder.
Lilith stood beside him, and when she saw this, she asked, "Shall I help you?" ”
"Well, that's a bother for you." Rosen nodded.
He had just experienced the battle of life and death, and he was seriously injured, even if he had the constitution of the undead, he was almost unable to bear it, at this time, Rosen felt that his head was groggy and his body was even more exhausted.
Although he knew in his heart that the civilians he rescued were in urgent need of food and cold supplies, and he also knew in his heart that if he didn't find a solution to this matter as soon as possible, something would definitely happen, but he didn't want to do anything now, he just wanted to lie on the ground and sleep beautifully.
Lilith crouched beside Rosen, carefully untying the strip of cloth on his shoulder, and when the last strip of cloth was undone, she saw that Rosen had a blackened wound the size of a baby's fist on his shoulder, and the wound was so bloody that she couldn't see what was going on in the wound. Later, she found another hideous wound on her back.
Lilith is a four-star magician who knows magic damage very well, and based on the shape of the wound, she roughly guessed the magic that caused the wound: "My God, it's the Holy Fire Ray of the Flame Church!" ”
The Holy Flame Ray, a 4-star magic, can easily penetrate the target's body after being hit, and what is even more terrifying is that the huge energy carried by the ray will also make the blood boil near the target's wound. If it hits an ordinary person, no matter how strong the target is, and no matter which part it hits, this person will instantly faint because of the great pain and directly lose his combat effectiveness.
Rosen was hit by the vital point, but he still kept his senses, and he was able to walk all the way back and continue to fight, and his body was almost inhuman.
Lilith suddenly remembered the experience of the underground city, and couldn't help but ask in a low voice, "Lawson, are you really a monster?" ”
At this point, after going through so many things together, she no longer minds if Lawson is a monster, she just wants to know the exact truth.
Rosen glanced at her, then looked in other directions, and seeing that no one was paying attention to them, he chuckled and said: "This matter is very complicated, to put it simply, I used to be an ordinary person, with some alchemy talents, until one night, a vampire attacked my family's manor, my parents died tragically, and I was also bitten by a vampire on the neck and sucked blood...... Luckily, I didn't die, but since then, there have been some strange changes in my body, such as the recovery when I was injured, the reaction became a lot faster, and the strength became a lot greater. Of course, so far I don't have a special penchant for blood. ”
"Oh~" Lilith's heart trembled slightly, and her face was full of apologies: "I'm sorry, I didn't expect this to be the case." ”
"It's okay, it was a long time ago." Rosen waved his hand, unconcerned.
Lilith examined Lawson's wound more and more seriously, and after looking at it for a while, she felt that she couldn't see clearly, she used her magic power to probe carefully, and after looking at it for a while, she breathed a sigh of relief: "It stands to reason that the holy fire ray will burn a wound that is transparent from front to back, but I see that your wound seems to have recovered a lot, and your recovery ability is indeed very strong." ”
Lawson turned his head and looked at his shoulder, then took out a clean cloth from his waist bag and handed it to Lilith, motioning for the other party to re-bandage: "It's not so fast to recover with your body alone, but don't forget, I'm also a magician." ”
"That's right." Lilith smiled lightly, the physique of the magician is naturally incomparable with the monster, but because of the magic power, they have extraordinary control over their body, ordinary injuries, the magician can basically recover quickly, which is also the main reason why those magicians in the hall can always insist on not dying.
She was carefully bandaging the wound, and while she was bandaging it, she suddenly felt Lawson's body move, and when she looked up, she saw that Lawson had his eyes closed, his head down, and he was already asleep.
Looking from the side, there is still a trace of childishness on his face, and when he sleeps, the lines on his face are much softer than when he is awake, and he looks no different from an ordinary teenager.
Looking at it, a strange emotion rose in Lilith's heart, there was pity, and there was a trace of indescribable things, and she subconsciously relaxed the movements of her hands.
After the wound was bandaged, she took another blanket, carefully laid Rosen's body flat, and then covered the hall over Rosen.
Rosen slept very deeply, completely unwary, and when Lilith made this series of moves, he did not react at all.
He must have been exhausted. ’
Not knowing what to think, Lilith couldn't help but reach out and gently touch Rosen's face.
At this time, a young magician came over: "Master Rosen...... Uh~"
Lilith was stunned for a moment, woke up, only felt her cheeks burn, and calmed down, she said softly: "Let him rest well, we will talk over there." ”
The magician immediately fell silent.
The two walked to the other side of the hall, and Lilith asked, "What's wrong?" ”
The magician whispered, "There was a commotion among the civilians outside, and there were just a lot of people fighting over a few hidden meatloaf. ”
Lilith was taken aback: "Didn't I say that the lack of food must be kept secret?" Who got the news out? ”
The magician spread his hands and looked bitter: "No one passed on." There are also smart people among those civilians, and they have almost guessed the truth. Those people only believe in Master Rosen, and they must come out and give an explanation. ”
Lilith was impatient, she turned her head to look at Lawson who was sleeping by the fire not far away, and then turned her head to look at the magicians in the hall who were recuperating from their injuries, and a trace of fear appeared in her heart: "There are more than 800 civilians, and now most of the magicians are recuperating from their injuries, and Lawson is also not lightly injured, and there are only 5 people who can really fight Now, the pressure on everyone is unusually great, once there is a mutiny-style riot, no one can suppress it at all." Maybe a lot of magicians will die in the riots. ’
Once this kind of desperate riot breaks out, even Lawson will be difficult to suppress, and many people will definitely die.
"What to do? What to do? ”
Lilith panicked, she really couldn't think of a good way, so she could only walk towards Lawson. At this time, only Lawson can stabilize the situation.
"Lawson ~ Lawson ~ Wake up." She gently shook Rosen's shoulder.
Rosen slept very deeply, and Lilith shook it for several minutes before Rosen woke up in a daze, still with his eyes closed, and asked in a hoarse voice, "What's wrong?" ”
Lilith leaned into his ear and quickly explained the situation.
At first, Rosen listened groggyly, but when he heard about the riots of the civilians, he felt a thrill in his heart and completely sobered up: "You say, those people want to see me? ”
"Yes, they want you to give me an explanation." Lilith looked distressed.
Rosen suddenly felt a terrible headache, and he asked, "Have you figured out a way to get food?" ”
Lilith shook her head.
Rosen's headache became more and more numerous: "Then how do I give an explanation?" ”
"Otherwise, if you make up an explanation, just say it...... You're trying to figure out how to make sure you'll find food tomorrow, stabilize the situation first, and then we'll have the night to come up with ideas. Lilith suggested.
"......." Lawson was speechless, at first, he thought the idea was ridiculous, but after thinking about it, it seemed that he could only do this at present: "Okay, I'll say it now." ”
He rubbed his face vigorously to expel the remaining sleepiness before he stood up and walked towards the second-floor balcony.
When he reached the balcony, he saw that there was already a noticeable commotion among the civilians in the ruins of the academy, many shouting with emotion, some even starting to move, children crying, and women either following their men or huddled in the corners and shivering.
It's like a powder keg, just one spark can explode with irreversible consequences.
Rosen looked at the sweat on his forehead, he quickly checked the energy pool, just rested for a while, his energy pool recovered about 5 kilograms of TNT equivalent energy, not much, but enough for self-preservation.
He immediately pulled out a single amount of energy of 1 kilogram, aimed it at the sky, and exploded!
"Boom Boom~~"
There was a loud explosion like a thunderous sound, as if a big hand fell from the sky and slapped it on the ground, and the noise of the crowd suddenly disappeared without a trace, and everyone turned around and looked at Lawson on the balcony.
When Rosen saw that he had calmed the people, he raised his voice and said loudly: "Everyone, you guessed right, there is indeed not enough food in the academy, and there is no warm shelter. The only thing we have is security. Here, monsters will never dare to appear, so you don't have to worry about being attacked by monsters while sleeping! ”
Hearing Rosen's words, there was a riot in the crowd again, even if there was no place to live, there was a fire, and you could get through it if you endured it. But if you don't have anything to eat, you'll starve to death soon.
In order to avoid the monsters, everyone has been hungry all night, many people are dizzy with hunger, and the weather is cold, and everyone's sanity is already on the verge of collapse.
Rosen knew that his words were not very convincing, and he continued: "But, I ask you to rest assured, I, Rosen. Laplace, if you can get you back from the monsters, you'll find enough food! If I can't find it, I'll go to the blue water river to catch fish, and I'll have to feed you!" ”
Speaking of this, Rosen's heart suddenly moved: "Yes, the Bishui River is next to it, there are fish in the river, you can find a way to catch fish!" ’
Thinking of this, he suddenly gained confidence and shouted, "I, and the magicians in the academy, will do my best to keep you safe." Here, I give a deadline, tomorrow, tomorrow morning, I will definitely find food! Do you believe me? ”
People look at me, I look at you, and they don't make a sound.
At this moment, Vincent came out of the crowd and shouted, "What are you all thinking? Lord Lawson did everything he could to save us. Isn't such a noble person worthy of trust? ”
Claude immediately echoed in the crowd: "That's right! Lord Rosen, we believe in you! ”
Paran was also a smart man, and immediately shouted, "Lord Rosen, we believe in you!" ”
Driven by this, everyone shouted in unison: "We believe in you!" ”
Rosen breathed a sigh of relief in his heart: "Okay, you guys just wait for my good news!" ”
Seeing that the mood of the civilians was stabilizing, Rosen was a little relieved, and he immediately walked off the balcony, returned to the hall on the first floor, and said to Lilith: "I just came up with an idea to go fishing in the Bishui River. ”
Lilith's eyes lit up, but she frowned, "That's a solution." But we don't have fishing nets, we don't have boats, and no one knows how to fish. Why don't I go outside and ask and see who the fisherman is? ”
As soon as she finished speaking, a voice came from the door of the hall: "This method will not work. ”
Rosen turned her head to look, and saw Anne walking in heroically, she was carrying a heavy sniper rifle made by Rosen, she walked to Rosen's side, bent down to look at the wound on Rosen's shoulder, and asked with concern, "How is the injury?" ”
"It's not a big problem. You just said fishing doesn't work? Why? Rosen asked.
Anne sat down by the fire, carefully placed the sniper rifle, and said, "When I go home, I pass by the clear water. I noticed a lot of dead fish floating on the river. I examined the dead fish, and the flesh was blue, the bones were black, and they were all poisoned. ”
Lilith was startled: "Hey~ You mean, someone poisoned the river?" ”
Anne nodded: "Not only was the river poisoned, but the wells in the city were also basically poisoned, and I probed again and found that all this was done by monsters." Not only are they poisoning, but they are also emptying the city of food. ”
"Those monsters are trying to trap us in the academy." Rosen understood, he thought about it carefully, and said, "Poisoning in the water is not a big problem. I can extract the toxins out of the water, and the fish should be fine, as long as I can catch them, handle them, and eat them. ”
"I'm afraid I won't be able to get it back." Anne smiled wryly.
"Why?" Rosen asked.
"The water is full of water ghosts, and when I come back, they are already fishing!" Anne sighed.
Lilith's face turned pale as she muttered, "This must have been the High Lord's idea...... This method is really poisonous! ”
"Annie, this news can only be known to the three of us, understand?" Rosen whispered.
If the news got out, the civilians would have to be blown up immediately.
"I understand." Anne nodded.
"So what now?" Lilith asked in a low voice. At most, they will delay until tomorrow morning, and tomorrow they will not be able to get food, and the civilians will inevitably be bigger
Chaos, it is definitely a human tragedy.
"Don't worry, don't worry, you let me think about it."
Rosen also had a sad face, he thought about it, his eyes swept around the stone house, trying to find a way out, and suddenly, his gaze was fixed
He synthesized penicillin before.
Penicillin is organic, food is organic, and what the human body needs is nothing more than glucose, amino acids, glycerol, cholesterol, phospholipids
Small Molecule Organics...... Pregnant! His eyes lit up.
Food is just an energy carrier, he has a huge energy pool, and he is worried that he can't synthesize food?
