Chapter 131: Secrets and Preparations

In the old man's cries, Karel felt as if he had heard something terrible.

This old man's name is Edith, originally a native of Granville, 50 years ago, that is, when the last season of the invasion of the undead happened, Editha was originally just a young girl, and the night 50 years ago became a nightmare for Editah's life.

"It was winter, and it was raining lightly all day long, and the sky was gray, and then I don't know what day it was, and the clouds began to get darker and darker, and at first everyone didn't care, thinking it was a normal situation, but when the raindrops were also black, everyone felt that something was wrong."

Speaking of this, the old man's eyes were full of fear, as if the scene of the past was still presented in front of her.

"Black raindrops, everywhere they drop, will stain a large piece of black, land, rivers, houses, even... People, my father, he didn't like to play an umbrella when he met Xiaoyu, he liked to run hard in the rain, I still remember the way he looked when he came home one day, his face, his hands, all there were deep and shallow dark spots, one after another, when he came back, he began to have a fever, he was unconscious, the place blackened by the rain seemed to have life, constantly expanding, my mother tried to use holy water to treat, but, unfortunately, ......"

Speaking of this, the old man paused and looked at Karel, who was listening calmly, "Young man, have you ever killed the undead?" ”

"Me? Well, of course killed. Karel was stunned by the sudden question.

"Yes, undead creatures. Slowly, swaying, you can scatter yourself, but what if your loved ones become undead in front of you? My father was right in front of my eyes, and he was a zombie, and when the black marks covered his body, his body was rotting in pieces, and he died quickly, while my mother and I were crying on the edge of the bed. It didn't take long to cry. I heard a scream, and I looked up and saw that it was my father, albeit only for a short time. But my father was rotten. At this time, my father was holding my mother and gnawing desperately. Blood was dripping down my neck, and my mother was staring at me with wide eyes. The mouth opens and closes, but there is no sound, like a fish leaving the water. ”

"I understood her words, and she only repeated one word from beginning to end."

"Run! Run! Run! She even took the initiative to hug my father, and hugged him so tightly that I could even see her arms squeezed into my father's flesh. ”

"So I rushed out of the house as fast as I could, and by this time the whole city was in chaos, and there were rotting people wandering everywhere, but luckily, as long as they didn't get too close, or weren't in their sight, they wouldn't notice."

"I ran as hard as I could, and I don't know how long it took for me to run out of the city, and all the way to the cliff outside the city, by this time, the army had already entered Granville, and the light of the spell explosion could be seen from afar."

"I watched on the edge of the cliff for three days and three nights until I was spotted by a passing adventurer and rescued. What attracted me the most in the past three days was not the battle between the army and the undead, but a particularly large black vortex, the vortex was just southeast of the City Lord's Mansion, how far it was, sorry, I can't remember exactly. ”

"I don't know why, I always feel that the black whirlpool must have some special meaning, young man, please help me, an old man who is about to enter the ground, help me find out what is in the place where the black whirlpool is, this question has bothered me for 50 years, please."

"No problem, I'll come back and tell you as soon as possible." Black rain, undead, black giant whirlpool, I didn't expect to buy dry food once and still know these secrets, these are things that matter life and death.

When Karel returned to the bar, Helenny and the others had already returned, so Karel shared with them what he knew.

"I feel that the most important thing to pay attention to is the black rain and the black maelstrom, there must be some inevitable continuity between the two." Lu Lin said after hearing this.

"Yes, everyone must make sure that there are houses around where you can hide directly, and of course, beware of the undead in the houses."

"What about the black whirlpool? According to the old man, that vortex should be in the southeast, and the southeast side means we're going to cross the whole of Granville. "It's Pats Skinner, and the gnomes aren't optimistic about traversing the Corrupted City.

"Don't worry about this, if necessary, I'll go and investigate it myself." Feeling the cowardice of his teammates, Karel said lightly.

"Hey, guys, I'm back." While everyone was talking, the tavern door was slammed open, and Toddrick walked in.

"Well, good, what's the catch?" Karel asked.

"Yes!" The werewolf found a chair and sat down, then poured a sip of orange juice, and said with a sigh of relief: "There are about 30,000 adventurers participating this time, more than 500 adventure teams, but don't look at the number of people, Granville is a super large city, prosperous and has a population of nearly 10 million, and now there are almost so many undead, at the same time, each team must not be less than 20 people, and if there are not enough people, cooperate with other teams, otherwise if there are fewer people, they will be directly killed by the undead, as for our ......" Todrick looked at it and was about to say something.

"People are not a problem, we have well over 20 people, and tomorrow someone else will come." Karel said, pointing to the badge on his chest.

"Also, Blue Rose, this is also a well-known team." Todrick poured another double of orange juice, and then said: "The latest discovery, Granville's undead creatures will produce a black crystal, which is a very good magic material, so the first task has changed from killing the undead to collecting 20 crystals, which can be exchanged for rewards, if there are more, you can keep them for yourself, and the Magic Guild will also buy them at a price of 20 gold coins, this depends on your thoughts, as for the exploration task, there is no information, there is no change, and it will be the same." ”

"I've found something." Karel recounted the information he had obtained.

"Well, in this way, it can be regarded as a special point, but the undead creatures in Granville are too strong, and the average level is as strong as the 8th layer of the Moriah Mine, and to be honest, no one can go through it except for you and Lulin." Looking at Karel, Todrik smiled wryly.

"It's okay, I'll go as long as I go, it's commonplace." Karel said there was not much pressure. "And how long will the whole mission last?"

"There is no definite answer to this, the key depends on our actions, the number of undead will be reduced to a certain extent, and the discovery and resolution of the source of the anomaly will also end, if nothing goes well, then the mission will be directly canceled, and the most elite soldiers of each country will solve the problem, just like 50 years ago. I expect it to take about 2-3 months, and if you can solve the problem of the source of the riot within 1 month, it will only be a matter of 10 days. ”

"Soldiers? What can they do? For ordinary soldiers, Peter Skinner expressed disdain.

"Although the individual strength of the soldier is not as good as that of the adventurer, the overall strength plus the war vehicle can easily deal with such a big scene."

"Okay, is there anything else to add?" Karel looked around at a few people, but no one made any new comments. "Ansania, write down the main points, and hand them to our new teammates in writing tomorrow, just remember the key points, not too cumbersome, and in addition, tomorrow when the other team members arrive, we will distribute the supplies uniformly, and if there are special needs, solve them yourself. Now disband, rest. Karel stood up and declared the team meeting closed.

However, this does not mean that they can rest, in addition to Karel, Ansania, Helenny, and Stever have all studied alchemy, so Karel called them up to prepare potions.

Purification potion, two ice cap grass, two mourning moss, this is the formula of the genuine potion, at the same time, ice cap grass and mourning moss are not expensive, 10 gold coins can buy a large bundle. This is the best way to deal with the black rain, you know, the so-called black rain that turns people into undead is nothing more than one of the three effects of magic, disease, and curse.

Invisibility potion, a ghost mushroom, and a sunflower, are slightly more expensive, but they are used less frequently. You can run away when it is critical.

Special treatment potion, two golden ginseng, one mountain rat grass, golden ginseng is more expensive, 10 gold coins a plant, but I can't stand the wealth of the master, for the sake of the team, Karel ran to several stores, swept away all the golden ginseng, and bought about a thousand plants.

There is a big difference between large-scale refining of potion and the refining of a single bottle and a single bottle, the key to large-scale refining of potion is to squeeze all the materials according to the formula into juice, and then mix them to make the original solution of the medicine, pour it into a crystal bottle, and then add water. So don't look at the pile of medicinal herbs as high as a mountain, the magic juicer can process 20 individual herbs at a time, 4 people squeeze together, and soon the herb pile is replaced by the pill bottle pile.

Find a small square wooden box for special medicine bottles, one meter long and wide, one centimeter high, each small box can hold 100 bottles of potion, the same kind of potion is packed into the box number, and then poured into the mountain spring water in turn, and the medicine is made in this way.

"Whew, it's finally done." Stillwell shook his sore arm and muttered.

"Okay, you go and rest, I'll clean it up later." Karel wrung his shoulders as well, rattling, and began to seal the box. (To be continued......)
