Chapter 45: The Last Keeper of Secrets
Under the fire that swept through the entire City of Wealth, the inexplicable disappearance of a large number of walking corpses large enough to destroy the city, including Roland, was noticed.
Roland couldn't help but frown.
In the previous episodes, the professor had no interest in the walking corpses.
What's so special about these walking corpses that the professor wants to do to them?
Or was it only after the professor met Roland that the walking corpses became meaningful?
If there is one thing that makes them special, there is only one thing - that is, the negative energy in these walking corpses is extraordinarily strong, far exceeding that of their counterparts in the wild.
This is because they have been specially concocted by the undead of the Ribblade Street, so that their bodies can store more negative energy. Even though negative energy can also cause the undead to suffer and cause their bodies to decay, negative energy can also increase the undead's combat power.
And one of the more important reasons is that the ritual of the transformation of the undead itself requires a very strong negative energy field. Although only the divine power of the Sleeping Master can control and extract negative energy, if you kill a large number of these walking corpses, you can still let their stored negative energy overflow, turning a certain area into a demon domain.
Thinking of this, Roland suddenly remembered one thing.
When Suze waged war against Bansa, they had sent a special army. They recover quickly from injuries and have a special vision that directly captures living beings, but they are extremely stiff and do not receive an injection of a drug for a while, and their bodies quickly fester, as if killed by an overload of negative energy.
It is said that it was the work of one of the professor's discarded failures after being transformed by the Su Ze Military Department. Through this potion, they obtained an army of madmen who were not afraid of death and were difficult to kill. It wasn't until later that Su Ze's people expressed dissatisfaction with this transformation, and the cost performance of this potion was actually not very high, and the biggest purpose was to create powerful cannon fodder. In the end, the subject was stopped by Prince Su Ze.
At that time, some people talked nonsense on the forum, saying what would happen if the professor had completed the work - but because the work was already a scrap product when it came into public view, no one knew what the professor wanted to do.
Roland now had a hunch that the professor's purpose in collecting those walking corpses was to complete his work.
"Oletta," Roland said, after pondering for a long time, "what information did the professor use to trade with you?" Can you tell us a little bit? ”
"If this is ......"
Hearing Roland's almost unreasonable request, Oleta scratched her head in annoyance.
"In principle, it must not be said, but if it is your Majesty's request......"
"There's no need to say what the information is," Roland added, "just the type of information." For example, what age and level of people are enough. ”
"That's right...... There's nothing that can't be said. ”
Oleta groaned slightly, then began to enumerate, "Victor is quite a learned man. The information he gave me ranged from the Solar Empire of the Golden Age of a thousand years ago, the Silver Queen of the War of the Gods, what was the southern part of Titan, and the scourge beasts of Karaal and the ice dragons of the desert, etc., etc. I can't go into the details of it, but I think it's very credible, as if he had personally experienced it and written it down. ”
"Is it detailed?" Roland asked in surprise.
"Very detailed."
Oleta nodded very dryly: "So in order to ensure a fair transaction, in addition to the body fluids of the goblin he requested, I also gave him something extra...... Something that shouldn't be sold out in principle. ”
Hearing this, Roland's pupils instantly locked.
There are a lot of things that Elcater shouldn't take, but only one can be touched by Oleta and can carry with him.
“…… Did you give him the transformation fluid of the undead? ”
Roland's voice couldn't help but be a little hoarse.
"Ah, that's right. This is the only thing I had with me at the time that could match the value of his information," Oleta's tone couldn't help but hesitate a little as he said this, "But the transformation fluid I gave him was only a one-time thing. Even if he copied the recipe, he didn't have the equipment to inject energy...... After all, it was something that required the divine power of the Sleeping Master to activate. ”
"You've been fooled, Oletta. It seems that the professor is deliberately looking for you to trade. ”
Roland just shook his head.
For an alchemist of this level, you give him the finished product, and within a few months, he will be able to restore the recipe.
If it was the professor, maybe he would be able to improve some of the deficiencies of the original undead transformation liquid. Perhaps he could also work out an alternative to the divine power of the Elder Sleep Mentor.
What's in the south of Plus Titan...... Roland finally knew what the professor wanted to do.
This damn alchemist, he wants to unleash the Undead Scourge!
As for the reason, Roland guessed that the professor wanted to turn the incapable civilians into undead and powerful undead, and use the undead to fight the demons. In this way, it will indeed allow Faens to defeat them back with a near-undamaged record against the demon's aggression.
After all, the undead are immortal. The pyroxene species also said that at least the demon had no possibility of killing the dead.
"No kidding...... No kidding, bastard! ”
Roland roared, his eyes full of anger: "It's impossible to save the world in this way!" It will only destroy the whole world completely! ”
Turning everyone into the undead to survive? No kidding, in that case, what if you survive?
What if the Elder Sleep Master empowers these undead? There is no new blood, even if you survive the war against the demons, what can you do?
It is impossible for the undead to have offspring. And Roland had never heard of any way to transform the undead back into humans.
If the curse of immortality can be lifted at any time, it is not called a curse, but should be called a golden finger.
Even if the crow can kill the dead soul completely, it is the same. Killing them will not help the world, and only by transforming them into real productive forces can we say that they have made their due contribution to the world.
Roland was slightly stunned.
yes, he figured it out.
He still has the possibility of turning the tables. He still has a chance to turn it all around.
"Oletta, Serena, please take me to the Grand Duke of Bloodthroat."
Roland stood up and said solemnly, "I have something important to discuss with her. ”
In the incredulous gaze of the two, the silver-gray crown lines on his forehead gradually emerged.
On the other side of the world, in the northernmost mountains of Bansar, a tower, pure white suspended in the air, slowly descended, and fell to the ground with a roar, and the earth shook with it.
Dressed in a bright red bishop's robe, An Ruosi stood on the ground with a complicated face, looked up at the tower that had just landed on the ground, and clenched the scepter in his right hand.
Over the months, his features had matured a lot, and it looked like years had passed.
If you look up from below, you can see the runes imprinted on the forearm of his left hand, which is obscured by his bishop's robes. It was a pattern of mysterious runes, like eyes.
"May Aum keep an eye on us."
He stretched out his left hand and spoke softly in a language that mortals could hardly understand.
The next moment, the rune on his left arm suddenly emitted light, and his figure instantly disappeared in place. (To be continued.) )
