Chapter 61: The potion is complete
Leaving aside the commotion in the main city because of Odeh's letter, the potion to suppress the urge to suck blood has been completed on the side of Yod City.
"Injecting it into the body can achieve the effect of suppression, and the amount here can last for about two months, remember to take it once a day."
Li Mengde handed over the box containing two rows of bright red injections and said to Uncle Lei and Zhou Yao.
It was a vacant room in the bungalow, which had been packed up and placed some of the instruments and equipment that had been brought from Leemond's residence.
"Thank you, I'll take it and inject Xiaoxue once."
Uncle Lei took the box, said to the two people present, and couldn't wait to leave.
Zhou Yao opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but in the end he just watched Uncle Lei's back go away. Mondstadt noticed this and smiled.
"Don't worry, I didn't do anything, it's indeed a real suppressant."
Zhou Yao, who was pierced through his mind, laughed awkwardly and said nothing.
He is not like Uncle Lei, who loves his daughter, and he still has a little doubt about the authenticity of this potion.
Although he believed that Li Mengde had no malice at that time because of his performance, but now that he has cooled down again, Zhou Yao still has a trace of caution against this man who claims to be from the Central Province. It's not the kind of hostility that wariness, it's just a sense of repulsion towards strangers who don't know it.
Especially after watching the process of Li Mengde's manufacturing potion on the spot, that kind of skillful and solid action, if they did some superfluous "small movements", they really couldn't see it to outsiders.
Zhou Yao also tried to ask Sakuya to supervise it, but after he asked, he learned that the almighty Sakuya had almost no involvement in alchemy potions, so in the end, only the two big men were left to "observe".
Although they were a little skeptical, they could only trust Li Mengde now, otherwise they really had no way to solve Lei Ruxue's blood-sucking impulse.
"It's really a disaster to come out for a leisure, but you still encounter something like this." After laughing twice, Zhou Yao diverted the topic and said casually.
"Indeed, I really didn't expect the Dead Apostles to invade at this time, the last time was when Valhalla was just rebuilt."
Li Mengde didn't care either, and sighed along with Zhou Yao's topic.
With that, the two of them left the place and walked slowly down the hallway.
"Last time? Is it referring to the matter of the breeding area? Hearing that this was not the first time that the Dead Apostles had engaged in this kind of aggression, Zhou Yao took the lead in thinking of the Eighteen Districts that had been occupied by the Dead Apostles.
"That's right, I was really shocked when I heard the news at that time, and I didn't expect the Dead Apostles to be restless with the lurking life."
"I was also shocked when I first heard it, and I'll ...... Valhalla was first rebuilt more than 80 years ago, you said you heard it at that time?! ”
Zhou Yao suddenly felt that something was wrong when he said this, and his eyes widened to look at Li Mengde, who had an ordinary face.
"Yes, I've experienced that incident, even though I've only heard from others." Li Meng raised his eyebrows and said.
"And how old are you?" Zhou Yao still didn't slow down for a while.
No matter how you look at it, Li Mengde is a forty or fifty-year-old uncle, even if his sloppy appearance adds points, he is not at all comparable to an old man who is at least eighty years old.
Hawkers, although appearance does not determine the actual age, just as the white-bearded Warrill and Uncle Ray are the same age, on the other hand, looking young does not necessarily prove that the actual age is young.
said so, but after actually hearing it, Zhou Yao was still a little shocked.
Do you really have to experience more to get used to this kind of thing?
Zhou Yao thought in his heart jokingly.
"Hmph, it's three digits." Lemon said, looking proud.
Zhou Yao suddenly thought of a question and hurriedly opened his mouth.
"You're human?" Because the difference between his appearance and his actual age is too big, Zhou Yao couldn't help but have this question.
"Nasty, of course I'm human, a real human." Li Mengde laughed happily and waved his hand at Zhou Yao.
Seeing that he was still a little unconvinced, Li Mengde restrained his smile and explained.
"Although human beings themselves have a short lifespan, they can still be extended in different ways, and death apostulism is not the only way."
Hearing him say this, Zhou Yao was immediately relieved.
What Li Meng said is the truth, in addition to death, there are indeed many ways to prolong life, such as a certain old worm of the Maki family, which is said to have lived for more than 500 years, but because of this, it has become inhuman.
"Listen to Mr. Ray, you are a holder?"
Suddenly, Li Mengde asked an irrelevant question, and Zhou Yao was stunned and then nodded in acknowledgement.
"You haven't gone to the academy yet, have you?" Although it was a questioning statement, Leemond spoke in an affirmative tone. Zhou Yao nodded again.
"For you holders, there is a real opportunity to extend your life."
Li Mengde said something mysterious, and Zhou Yao's interest was immediately seduced.
"I think the next joint entrance examination will be two years away...... At that time, there will be a trial in which only the holders of the academy participate, and the winner will receive the 'Millennium Elixir'. ”
"Joint Entrance Examination? Millennial medicine? ”
"Well, the assessment jointly held by the three royal families is held every three years. The millennium medicine can give human beings a thousand years of youth and achieve a limited period of immortality. ”
"Such a good thing, the three royal families will take it out every year and reward it to outsiders?"
Zhou Yao didn't think that the Yusan family would be so generous, and took out the elixir to reward others for nothing.
"It's not an outsider, the premise of the competition is that it belongs to the three royal families. And it is more suitable to say that it is better to use competition than to take it out, and the three royal families compete with each other for the quota of the millennium medicine. Lemon explained.
"But the thousand-year-old medicine is not a cabbage on the street, can the three royal families obtain it for a long time?" Zhou Yao had another question.
Since it can be held every three years, it proves that there will be a stable source of millennium medicine.
"Of course you can, but this has a lot to do with insiders, and you will have a chance to learn about it when you go to the academy in the future, so I won't say more."
Li Mengde said that at this point, it was not good for Zhou Yao to continue to ask.
However, he is looking forward to going to the academy in the Central Province to further his studies.
The two came to the living room, and Zhou Yao saw Uncle Lei sitting next to Lei Ruxue at a glance, staring nervously at his woman's situation. The empty injection next to it proves that Uncle Lei has used today's portion.
In addition to their father and daughter, Doug was also in the living room, sleeping on the sofa on the other side.
His two maids, Blowing Snow and Deep Snow, were nowhere to be found, and he didn't know where he had abandoned his master.
All right...... Zhou Yao swept around, and even his maid Sakuya was not in the living room, so it was conceivable why the blowing snow and deep snow were not there.
However, he didn't find Sakiya, and Zhou Yao was a little surprised to see the figure of Erdu.
The two looked at each other, and the second stunned hurriedly came to Zhou Yao's face.
"My lord! If you fail to complete the task, please punish the lord! ”
After speaking, Erdu knelt on one knee.
Li Mengde was stunned, and Zhou Yao was also stunned.
Did I travel into a costume drama? The words are awkward!
"Ahem! The second dumb ......" Zhou Yao pretended to cough, attracting the second dumb to look up.
"I now give you a command, that you don't have to kneel henceforth."
"But ......"
"It's an order!" Zhou Yao solemnly repeated it again.
He can barely accept calling him the lord, but he really can't accept kneeling and saluting at every turn. Whether in this life or in the previous life, he is an authentic modern person, the former can be regarded as a mouth fetish, and the latter is definitely not good.
"Okay, let's talk about it, what does it mean to not complete the task."
Turning back to his original state, Zhou Yao looked at the second dumb who stood up and asked.
"Yes! The order given by the lord is to destroy the ghoul, but until now, he has not eliminated the ghoul in front of him, so ......"
"Stop! When did I say that I wanted you to wipe out the ghouls, you are really ......" Zhou Yao couldn't cry or laugh, and he didn't know what to say.
When will the second stay be able to get rid of the brainless point?,It's really cute.,Is it really a task with a long way to go like Sakiya's facial paralysis? I don't feel like there's any hope......
Zhou Yao covered his forehead and sighed, and said in a helpless tone.
"There is no set amount to be eliminated, you can decide at will, and how busy you will be to eliminate all the ghouls outside."
The second stay does have the strength to completely destroy the ghouls, but he can't do large-scale magic tricks when he is alone, and he doesn't know when he will have to kill them all.
"It's ignorance, and I misunderstand the meaning of the lord!"
Erdu's face showed obvious remorse.
"Forget it. Did you have any trouble? Zhou Yao didn't want to say this anymore, so he casually asked about the situation outside.
"No, it's just that halfway through the kill, I met some guys who looked like ghoul leaders, about five hundred people, and it took some effort." Erdun thought about it and said.
That's the Dead Apostle who controls the ghouls behind it...... Zhou Yao couldn't help but mourn in silence for those unlucky ghosts.
"Has the ghoul's movements changed?"
If the Dead Apostles as the leader are gone, the ghouls below should not be able to act in unison, right?
"Unfortunately, no." The second dumb shook his head.
"Okay......"
It would be nice for the army of ghouls to leave, but not leaving will not affect the current city of Yoder. However, it is difficult to say after a long time, after all, it still depends on the time when the rescue arrives.
