Chapter 19: The True Purpose of Cangyan
Of course, if Luo Ming agreed, Aya would not do anything, but slowly adjusted the relationship between the two and completely became collaborators with similar interests.
...... If you are united by profit, you will be divided by profit.
But now that the temptation got the result she wanted, Aya stopped joking.
"To put it bluntly, it's just that the magic power in the flesh of the demonic beast has not been completely transformed and absorbed by you and turned into your own thing.
Mana, or mana, is the general term for the free energy that fills the heavens and the earth, and it is actually easier to absorb. Not to mention that there is also Cang Yan, have you forgotten? It is the most valuable gift that His Highness has ever given him, but it is not just a weapon used to fight fiercely. ”
In Aya's tone, there was obviously the meaning of "you stupid person who doesn't know the goods", but she was just making trouble, Luo Ming thought.
"Isn't it just for fighting fiercely...... Ah, yes!"
Thinking of those people who were burned by Cang Yan in an instant and extracted the essence of life, Luo Ming showed a thoughtful face and immediately tried it.
Cang Yan turned into a half-empty and half-real state, and after swimming around his body a few times, he was pleasantly surprised to find that although the magic power in the demonic beast's flesh had shrunk by several percent, it had no irritable feeling, and had become docile as water, and it could soon be completely absorbed by himself.
Whether it is the Tianhu Dou Qi or the Xuanhai Dou Qi that he has mutated now, he is known for his extensive accumulation.
Maybe when you have enough savings, you can use the numerical advantage to overwhelm everything, but now when the quantity is not much, the digestion ability has no advantage, and it will inevitably affect your accumulation speed.
But Cang Yan completely made up for this shortcoming, he could quickly digest the external energy, if the Xuanhai Dou Qi Method only widened the pool he had accumulated and made the pool wall harder, then Cang Yan would be equivalent to making the water inlet expand a lot.
He could even feel that the magic power contained in this demonic beast meat was still a cut short of the upper limit of his current digestion speed.
"Of course, why do I keep encouraging you to do something big?
Since those who come don't refuse, let's come more, come more. If a whole force provides you with resources, according to your incredible digestion speed, becoming stronger is as easy as a girl's growing meat. ”
Aya said with a grin.
"What a strange analogy...... Luo Ming muttered, feeling that the magic in his body had been digested, and his fighting spirit had increased, and he fell asleep.
Nothing was said all night.
In the early hours of the next morning, everyone woke up.
Granty smiled at Luo Ming, probably because he was a very decent gentleman last night and didn't even eat a little tofu. After all, the tent is not big, and it is still a bit tiring to insist on not huddled together.
Luo Mingxin said that it was fortunate that Aya's communication with him was in his heart, otherwise Grant would hear it, and he was afraid that she would draw her sword and kill the demon on the spot.
In response to this, he also specifically asked Aya - although Black Sun's name is not gorgeous, it is not an evil god or demon, strictly speaking, it is neutral and biased towards the good camp.
There are a small number of such mysterious subordinates on the mainland, and as long as they don't act as traitors, no one will target them.
After breakfast, the crowd began a second round of operations under Levin's command.
A few of the mercenaries put away their tents and prepared to relocate on the outskirts of the forest, and the mercenaries began further clearing work.
This time, there was plenty of time, and the mercenaries had a night's rest, and their physical strength was better than when they were on the road yesterday. However, if you go deeper into the forest, the danger will increase.
As a result, it was impossible for Luo Ming, Granty and the others to rest forever after just sweeping once.
Almost everyone expelled or even killed at least one Warcraft, and after returning to the camp, they rested for an hour, and then returned to the front line, half to protect the low-level mercenaries from sudden attacks by Warcraft, and half to slowly expand the scope of the sweep.
The demonic beasts lurking in the fog are already very dangerous, and the silver-level mercenaries have to be very energetic to guard against them, but they didn't expect that even ordinary beasts, perhaps because of the survival of the fittest who have lived here for generations, also have a great home field advantage compared to humans.
The number of silver-level mercenaries is limited, even if they add the bronze level, even if they drive away all the demonic beasts, but the more ordinary beasts will always slip through the net, and it will also cause some trouble.
For example, there was an old deer, although it was not a magical beast, but this creature ran no less than a horse, and when it rushed out of the fog, it caused a commotion.
A hapless Black Iron mercenary was caught defenseless by it, flying three meters off the spot, his internal organs ruptured, and although he was barely treated - even Lorming, Granty, and Mage Hendrick were involved, but only saved his life.
The average mage was not as skilled in healing as his peers, and Hendrik barely kept him from dying.
And although Granty has a little bit of a relationship with the priest, and the radiant fighting spirit has a little healing effect, she basically can't use it, and she tries her best, that is, to create a light class the size of a grain of rice...... It's barely enough to treat a mouse, but it's too little for humans.
Although Luo Ming has Cangyan, this kind of hole card is not exposed casually, and it costs a lot to cure this injury, and it is not related to that person, so he just pushed it a few times to promote blood circulation and eliminate blood stasis.
Although the mercenary was already considered to be extremely lucky, and he was willing to save his life when he met a master, his mercenary career was ruined, and according to the recovery from his injuries, he might not even be able to do heavy work in the future.
It's not that there is no way to completely cure it, but it is absolutely unaffordable for a black iron-level mercenary to sell his body and kidney.
There was also an unlucky ghost who was bitten off by a wolverine, but if this was the case, he had to clean the wound himself and stop the bleeding with a bandage.
The two unfortunate ghosts lay in the camp, and naturally no one would give up their reward to take care of them for them, and Levin's servant would never do anything superfluous before his master could speak.
As a result, the one who was bitten on the leg could only limp with a wooden stick to take care of the other. Although the two of them did not complete the task, Levin was kind enough to give each of them a silver coin.
Yes, a silver coin, in fact, this has already made the two of them grateful, if it is a ruthless employer, maybe they will abandon them directly in the wild, by the way, inform the mercenary guild, maybe someone will bring them back in a day or two.
If you reach an agreement with the other mercenaries, you might even kill them, strip them of their equipment, and go back and say that they died in battle. After all, the Mercenary Guild is not the kind of workers' association in the previous life, and as for safeguarding the interests of every member, it will not even shout this kind of slogan.
Just like in the modern world, what real estate agent would fight a lawsuit against a homeowner for the benefit of the consumer?
At the end of the morning's exploration, one of the farthest silver-level mercenaries had even advanced nearly three kilometers, but still had not found the bones or any relics of Levin's ancestor.
Although the Misty Forest is not a big forest, it may take a few months to complete it if you want to explore it completely with less than a hundred people.
Luckily, Levin had a draft of the road map left by his ancestors, and if he didn't have one, he could just follow it deep into the forest.
However, going deep into the forest is not an easy task, and there is another feature that other forests do not have: dense fog.
Basically, the deeper you go into the forest, the thicker the fog becomes, and the usual methods of repelling it, such as igniting a fire, are not useless, but they are never able to completely dispel it.
