A gloomy underground training room.

The spiral troll in Rosen's hand pointed at Morbius's head.

"Message...... You say. ”

"You swear first, swear to the gods. I said the news, and you let me go! ”

"Swear? It seems that you misjudged the current situation. Lawson smiled and said, "Veronica, I think this guy's right shoulder needs to be repaired as well." ”

Veronica took a step forward, lifted her foot, stepped on Morbius's right shoulder, and began to push harder and thinner.

She smiled as she stepped on it: "Morbius, what I have is patience." If you don't say anything, I'll crush all the bones in your body. ”

"Ah~~~Haha~~Ah~~~" Morbius made a sound like crying and laughing, he was about to go crazy: "Count you ruthless!" Count you ruthless! I say! I say! ”

Veronica weakened slightly.

'Whew~Whew~'

Morbius gasped and said, "The news was from a miner who told me. He said there was an abandoned mine 40 miles east of Nilogaard. He wanted to try his luck that day and get some ore to subsidize his family. As a result, he saw a gang of robbers gathered in the mine from a distance. This miner is also a bold man, and he didn't want to run away, so he ran over and eavesdropped. As a result, he said that the robbers had said that there was an adult who was going to deal with the magicians in the city of Nilogaard. ”

"Kind of interesting, anything else?" Rosen asked.

"And there's more." Morbius hurriedly shouted: "After I heard this, I went to the mine to check it myself." By the time I got there, of course, the robbers were gone, but they had left a few things behind, including a piece of letter paper that had been burned to the point of being reduced to a dime. Leave a small half-flame mark on the letterhead. ”

"Flame markers?" Anne spoke, "This is the symbol of the Flame God Cult. You mean, the Cult of the Flame God wants to deal with Nilogaard? ”

Morbius nodded repeatedly: "It should be like this." Haven't you heard? A lot of the trucks that were carrying magic materials to the academy had been looted, and if you want to say that it was done by ordinary bandits, I wouldn't believe it first. ”

Rosen nodded slowly: "The Flame God Sect has always looked at the magician unpleasantly, and it is only a matter of time before Nilogaard takes action, and your news is very credible." ”

"yes, yes, I definitely didn't lie to you."

Rosen looked at the miserable Morbius on the ground, and turned to look at Veronica and Annie, "What do you think?" ”

Veronica kicked Morbius, "It doesn't matter. That magic cloak of his had been ruined. The power of an undead alone, I haven't seen it yet. ”

Anne said to Rosen, "I listen to you. ”

Lawson pondered for a while, took out all the remaining metal titanium particles from his waist bag, and swallowed them all in front of Mobius.

"You see, all Mithril has been eaten by me." Lawson also deliberately lit up the bottom of the glass bottle.

Morbius was very heartbroken to see it, and he was furious: "Yes, I'm not blind, I saw you eat all Mithril, you bastard!" ”

Rosen wasn't annoyed either: "I won't tell you about Mithril's secret, because it won't do me any good, right?" ”

"Yes!" Morbius snorted angrily.

"Actually, I have a question for you."

"Just ask." Morbius is still in a state of flux.

Rosen squatted down 5 meters away from Morbius, looked into Morbius's eyes, and asked, "You are an undead, and Nilogaard City should be a very dangerous place for you." What are you doing in this kind of place? ”

The magicians of Nilogaard Academy are not vegetarians, and a single magician may not be an opponent of powerful monsters, but when two, three, or even a dozen magicians are combined, the combat power increases exponentially. In the hundreds of years since the city of Nilogaard was founded, no monster has dared to spread wild in the city.

Morbius laughed miserably: "Because I am a traitor to the undead!" ”

The other three people in the basement were a little surprised to hear this.

Rosen hurriedly asked, "What's the situation?" ”

Morbius turned his head and looked at the candle on the ceiling of the basement, his face cold: "Fifty years ago, the reason why Viken killed my lover was at the behest of Elder Bloodrose, and the Elder's reason was that the undead must ensure that the blood is pure. Oh~ Go to the special bloodline pure! Since then, I've broken with the Blood Rose once and for all. Over the years, I have been incognito, accumulating strength, just to find an opportunity to take revenge. But I didn't expect that Viken would die at your hands. ”

"Revenge?"

Morbius gritted his teeth and said coldly: "Yes, revenge!" For revenge, I did everything I could to collect Mithril, because the more Mithril the undead absorbed, the more powerful it became! ”

His face was filled with hatred, and his teeth were clucking. Such a look of hatred from the heart cannot be disguised.

Rosen thought about it, then stepped forward and pulled out the silver thorns on Mobius's hands and feet one by one: "You want to kill me today, but I also tortured you fiercely." We don't owe each other. Let's go. ”

Without the restraint of the silver thorn, Morbius struggled to get up from the ground, he looked at Lawson with a complicated expression, and said, "You killed Viken, and the Blood Rose will never let you go." ”

"I know, that's why I'm hiding in Nilogaard. I think, no matter how powerful the Blood Rose is, it won't dare to make a move here without scruples, right? ”

The wounds on Morbius's body healed rapidly, and he limped towards the exit of the underground training room, saying as he walked, "You are right, this is why I am hiding in Nilogaard. However, the Flame God Cult's papal ambition is not small, and now it has the terrifying power of Thor. I'm afraid Nilogaard won't be too peaceful for long. ”

"Perhaps, but I'm also a magician, and if Nilogaard City is gone, I'll be wanted by the Cult of Flames. I don't want to hide from Tibet. So, I'm not going to watch this city fall. ”

Morbius sneered: "The war between the Flame God Cult and Nilogaard, what can you do as a little magician?" Don't think about it, it's not right, just run away. ”

Rosen didn't refute, he asked, "Is our bet still valid, Ore Merchant Morbius?" ”

"Of course. One yard to one yard, if you don't mind, the business between us will naturally continue. ”

At this time, Morbius had already walked to the door of the training room, and in a moment, the wounds on his body had basically healed. Before heading out, he finally said, "Good luck, alchemist." ”

After saying that, he suddenly picked up his speed, and his figure disappeared at the door of the training room.

Lawson also walked towards the exit: "Let's go, let's go clean up the hall, don't frighten the minions." ”

In the hall, Morbius's blood was still there, and the black cloak was gone, but there were many pieces of fabric on the cloak on the ground. Veronica was right, his cloak was ruined.

The three cleaned up the blood before opening the hall to let the servants in.

Rosen said to the old butler: "Ah Fu, we had some unpleasantness with the gentleman just now, but the matter has been resolved. You can take someone to clean up the hall. ”

"Yes, sir." Ah Fu nodded in agreement. He doesn't ask much, he doesn't look much, he just does things silently, which is the experience he has learned from decades of being a housekeeper.

Rosen walked back to the alchemy room on the second floor, and when he reached the second floor, he comforted the panicked Lady Lise and Sister Mary, and then returned to the alchemy room.

Now, he was very interested in the undead physique he had accidentally acquired.

After arriving at the alchemy room, Rosen found the silver nugget and touched it with his hands first, but there was no response. I put it in my mouth and bit it, but it didn't react.

Lawson used a knife to cut a small wound on the skin and put the silver nugget close to the wound, and as a result, there was no abnormal reaction except for the normal wound pain.

He took the silver nug and quietly looked at the wound on his skin.

Ten minutes passed, and he watched as his skin stopped bleeding, closed, healed, and finally recovered completely, leaving no scars.

"Like the undead, my reaction speed is not good, and I still have a strong healing ability, but this healing ability is much weaker than the authentic undead such as Mobius and Viken, but the good thing is that silver is completely ineffective against me, and blood will not make me addicted. But what is the reason for this? ”

Rosen was really curious, and he activated the alchemy power again to explore his body carefully.

As a result, he found that the titanium particles he had just swallowed had been completely digested into titanium ions, which were distributed throughout his body, with the skull having the largest number of titanium ions.

Incredibly, Rosen clearly saw the titanium ions changing, but his alchemy power could not detect the cause of the change, as if these titanium ions themselves had intelligence.

"The trait of the undead must be some kind of subatomic level power!" That's the only thing he's sure of.

'The crisis in Nilogaard City is gradually approaching, whether it is self-protection or other things, I need strength, but my alchemy power is slowly increasing, bombs, muskets and other things, although the power is huge, but I am not strong enough, easy to be taken advantage of. It seems that if you want to improve the survival rate, you can only rely on the physical characteristics of the undead. ’

Morbius said that the more Mithril you take, the stronger the undead become...... Mithril is titanium metal, where can I find titanium? There are two main compounds of titanium in nature: ilmenite and rutile. The former is iron ore, and it depends on character to find this thing. The latter is the purer titanium dioxide, also known as titanium crystal, which is a relatively cheap gemstone on earth. I just don't know how rare titanium crystals are in this world. ’

This kind of knowledge, of course, is to find an expert, and Veronica is an expert.

Rosen came out of the alchemy room, found Veronica, painted the rutile in appearance, and asked, "Winnie, do you know this gem?" ”

Veronica nodded, "You're talking about the Golden Silk Gem, right?" This gemstone is not cheap, and the best color, such as a gold wire gem the size of a little fingertip, costs 10 gold dragon coins. If the pigeon eggs are that big, it will be even more expensive, and hundreds of gold dragon coins are possible. ”

"Hmm~ a good gem, what a gem." Lawson was very happy in his heart.

He is not afraid of expensive, he is afraid of nothing.

Judging by the changes in my body, it seems that the bloodmark magic is trying to replace all of my bones with high-strength titanium. My bones weigh more than a dozen kilograms, and if all of them are replaced with bio-titanium alloys, there are not a few titanium metals that are needed. That's a lot of money. It's okay anyway now, I'll make money. ’

With this in mind, Lawson returned to the alchemy room and began to smelt glass to create a magic mirror.

In this hurry, he forgot the time, and in a blink of an eye, two days passed.

Here, Lawson is busy building all kinds of valuable gadgets. In the gardens of the Count's Court in the trade district, there is a level of singing and dancing.

The day after the young Countess Adele got the wand, she held a party, the theme of which was the 'Moon Wand Appreciation Party', and the members who came to attend were basically members of the Squirrel Club.

Trainee Wizard Hill was also present, her mentor was not in the Academy, no one was restrained, and she had been very free lately.

At the banquet, Adele took out a magic mirror and a magic wand, and lit the wand, which caused the members of the Squirrel Club to exclaim in amazement, and they almost drooled with envy.

Although Adele is a countess, she has always been a peripheral member of the Squirrel Club, and now she is naturally very proud to see that all the smart people in the Squirrel Club are shocked by her.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Hill whispered to Adele: "Didn't Mr. Vincent say that as long as you have any requirements, the alchemy master will try his best to meet you?" Do you have any new ideas these days? ”

Adele listened to it, and she naturally had an idea in her heart: "Although the Moon Wand is good, the soft light technique is only an auxiliary lighting magic. If only I had a wand that casts offensive magic, even if it's just flashing. ”

"......" Hill listened with black lines all over his head, this friend of hers is really bold, he dares to fight the idea of offensive magic, isn't she afraid that one will not control it well and cripple herself?

"Isn't that okay? Attacking magic is dangerous. Hill persuaded.

"I'm sure the master will have a way." Adele argued.

Hill couldn't help it, so he said, "Vincent is here tonight too." Why don't I go to Vincent for you?" ”

"Yes, yes." Adele nodded repeatedly.
