Tang Ning knew the young officer's thoughts, there were some strange thoughts in the other party's mind, and there was a question, so he picked up an item from the small trader, and the small trader bowed his head and introduced the item.

"You've heard about my request for reinforcements, and I have to tell you, yes, I'm here to ask for reinforcements, but your majesty must have the magic of immortality to grant my request. Downing put the peddler's things back.

The old man on the side translated these words to the young officer.

The young officer from the east was a little surprised, and looked at the young man from a foreign country in surprise. "The way to eternal life. His face was slightly disappointed.

"It looks like you're a little disappointed in your Imperial Majesty. Tang Ning saw the other party's thoughts from the young officer's mind, the young officer was a little disgusted with His Majesty the Emperor's way to seek eternal life, and all this is not what the young officer wants, and the current Emperor His Majesty is also facing some threats of war, because Eternal Life sends the soldiers here to the Eternal Continent, which is not what the young officer wants to see.

The young officer was still a little surprised, obviously surprised that the person next to him could read his mind, he was a little frightened, and clenched his fists and said, "Sir, please don't tell His Majesty the Emperor the information you just saw. ”

"Of course, it's your secret, and I won't reveal it to anyone if you don't want to tell it. "Downing had a good impression of the young officer.

"The people here have also experienced the war, and they have now achieved the peaceful life they have now, the purpose of the war was to make everyone equal, but now it seems that it is just one ruler replaced by another, and nothing has changed, perhaps the purpose of the war has deviated from our expectations. The young officer heard the promise of the Gentile and became bold.

"Someone has stolen the fruits of victory in war, making just war ridiculous. Downing understands the young officer's frustration at the moment.

All wars that started out as just went on and slowly drifted off the beaten track, being used by some despicable enough to achieve the personal demands of those despicable people.

According to the fragment in the young officer's mind, the war in the East was led by some slaves, these slaves fought to build an equal society, they overthrew the tyrants of the previous generation, but in the end the leaders of the slaves became the tyrants of the new generation, the former magnates became slaves again, and the slaves became nobles, as for the commoners, nothing changed, they did not gain anything in the war except to endure the trauma.

It's like the king and the papacy on the Eternal Continent, whoever wins in the end will become the emperor of the East, and the promises they made to the people will all be broken, and those in power are the best at telling lies.

"Maybe you need a whole new war, and you need the right people to lead it, and you're a good fit. Downing was blunt.

The young officer's face turned rather ugly, his expression was panicked, his voice was a little cold, and one hand was resting on the hilt of the sword at his waist. "Even though you are a foreigner, I will not be polite if you say something bad. ”

The two sides fell silent, and these words were translated by the old man on the side for the two of them, and the old man also felt that Tang Ning's words were quite impolite.

When dusk came, Downing returned to his room, there was no way to get eternal life, but there was a way to prolong life, but he had to make the unkind old man pay something, the old man was not a good man.

Slit his wrist with a dagger, drip blood into a bottle, and add a little magic material, and in order to give himself more time to take revenge, the uncles did a lot of tricks on themselves, such as magic and potions.

Now that the effects of these spells and potions on oneself are integrated into the bloodstream, drinking one's own blood can extend one's life by at least half.

The next day after entering the palace, of course, after the ministers had left, Tang Ning met His Majesty the Emperor of the East and handed over the vial of blood.

"Can this vial of blood prolong a person's life?" the old man was a little skeptical, he could detect that there was some blood in the bottle, and blood could not make people live forever.

Of course, it is the blood of God that prolongs life. Tang Ning replied respectfully, and at the same time glanced at the old man next to him.

The old man who followed Tang Ning bypassed the old man beside His Majesty the Emperor who knew supernatural powers, and said a few words directly to His Majesty the Emperor.

His Majesty the Emperor looked at the old man beside him, his expression was quite unfriendly, and the old man beside His Majesty the Emperor immediately knelt on the ground to defend himself. "Your Majesty, they are deceiving you and killing them. ”

His Majesty the Emperor said something, and the old man beside Tang Ning whispered. His Majesty the Emperor was quite dissatisfied with the old man beside him, and forbade him to speak. ”

The plan succeeded, and just now Tang Ning asked the old man next to him to tell His Majesty the Emperor directly. "In order to attain eternal life, you must use some things, but these things can only be told to His Majesty the Emperor. ”

The old man beside His Majesty the Emperor was quite dissatisfied with this, but in front of the authorities, there was no way to do it, he had lost the right to speak, and he stared angrily at the young man from a foreign country, as if to warn. "Don't make trouble, or you'll pay. ”

But Tang Ning would not change his mind because of such a warning, and was given the opportunity to communicate with His Majesty the Emperor alone, and was led into a secret room.

His Majesty the Emperor said something, the old man translated. "His Majesty the Emperor has asked you to tell me the way to eternal life. ”

Downing saluted respectfully, keeping his voice low to avoid being heard by outsiders. "In addition to that vial of divine blood, you also need the heart of a supernatural power holder, and the combination of the two will allow you to achieve the goal of eternal life. ”

The old man translated Tang Ning's words to His Majesty the Emperor, and His Majesty the Emperor of the East paced back and forth in the room. "Where to find the occult owner?"

"Right next to you, the old gentleman outside, he has the best heart, and I can guarantee that the potion will increase many times by then, and you will have more than a thousand years of life. Downing reminded.

The old man outside didn't know what was going on inside, but he had a premonition of danger, but it was impossible to escape from the huge palace.

Soon after, His Majesty the Emperor and the two people from the foreign country came out, and the old man glanced at the young man from the foreign country and said something urgently.

The old man on Tangning's side secretly translated. "He told His Majesty the Emperor not to take our word for it, no matter what we say. ”

His Majesty the Emperor was a little hesitant, his brows furrowed, as if he was thinking about the feasibility of the medicinal effect.

At this time, he should give His Majesty the Emperor a little advice, and strengthen the other party's idea of pursuing eternal life, Tang Ning encouraged in a low voice. "Even if it's a scam, you only have to pay the price of one person, it's nothing, the pursuit of eternal life has to be risked, trust me, Your Majesty the Emperor. ”

The old man in the east had already guessed what was going on and shouted hysterically, but His Majesty the Emperor made a decision that was more favorable to himself, and the old man was taken down, and there was a desolate scream outside the main hall.

Soon after, the soldier came in with a fresh heart, Tang Ning reached out and took the heart, and used the alchemist's potion to treat it simply, so that the heart lost its original fishy smell and the discomfort caused by the appearance, and then offered it with both hands. "Your Majesty the Emperor, as long as you obey you, you will be able to live forever. ”

Some people drank a little blood to confirm that there were no side effects, but instead the white hair of the person tested the drug turned black, the wrinkles on the face disappeared rapidly, and the youth was restored.

His Majesty the Emperor is relieved to take it, this medicine is different from the medicine given to Zheng Shi's family, there are not too many side effects, as for the heart, it has no effect, just to get rid of the old man who is in the way.

"I'm sorry, you shouldn't be in my way. Tang Ning looked at His Majesty the Emperor after taking the blood was eating the treated heart without the slightest discomfort, and he thought to himself, maybe that heart didn't need to be treated, because His Majesty the Emperor of the East seemed to eat the human heart a lot, and was immune to the discomfort caused by devouring the heart of the same kind.

When His Majesty the Emperor ate the heart, after drinking the blood, the wrinkles on his face began to disappear, the skin became smooth, and the hair that had been somewhat gray began to darken, and the light flickered in the faint light.

The servants knelt down and said something, and the old man on the side looked surprised and muttered quietly. "God, there really is an elixir of eternal life. ”

Eternal life is only relatively speaking, you can survive for a long time without getting sick, but it does not mean that you can survive when you encounter danger, real eternal life comes from the gift of heaven and hell, there is no heaven and hell in the East, and they have never heard the words about heaven and hell in their mouths.

His Majesty the Emperor looked extremely happy, and as he said something, the old man said excitedly: "His Majesty the Emperor has agreed, and he will send reinforcements to the Eternal Continent." ”

"Thank you for your kindness, God will bless you. Tang Ning gave a timely compliment, leaving the palace, now he must leave here as soon as possible, go to the port of the East, take Taylor there, and then rush back to the Eternal Continent.

The only surprise was that His Majesty the Emperor decided to provide an escort for this homecoming, and the escort officer was the young officer surnamed Zheng.

It would take a week to get to the port on the eastern coast by land, and it would inevitably be a little lonely if there was only the old man and himself, but it would be nice to have someone to accompany him, at least the eastern officer was not annoying.

The ranks are huge, and the most eastern mysterious country is strong, providing a team of almost a thousand people, such a team looks more like some kind of surveillance.

The vehicles in the East were faster than those in the Eternal Continent, and only Tang Ning and the old man who translated could ride in a huge car, and the officer surnamed Zheng could only follow on horseback.

Lifting the ornate curtain made of silk and looking at the officer surnamed Zheng who was following him, the thoughts in the other party's mind could clearly see that as guessed, the other party's purpose was not just to escort, but also had some other purposes, such as to see if the land there was fertile enough and whether it was worth using a lot of manpower and material resources to support the war.

The purpose of war is profit, and when the attrition of war is not proportional to the return after winning the war, no one will choose to use war to achieve their demands.

"Come in, young man, and sit down. Downing invited the young officer to ride with him in a comfortable chariot, which was clearly more suitable for long journeys than horses.
