Chapter 55: Nota City
It was three days after Leo entered the city of Nota, and as the capital of the Duchy of Nota, it was undoubtedly prosperous.
Not only that, but the whole city is filled with a different atmosphere, and the people here seem to be exceptionally warm and unrestrained.
The alternate days of November and February were supposed to be the climate of warming up at home and going out to stomp their feet, after all, Nota City was close to the north of the coast of the East Continent, but the people here were dressed in single clothes, enthusiastic and bold, as if they were driving away the cold with their actions.
As the name suggests, the streets are lined with three-story square towers of uniform height and style, and the easternmost part of the city is a unique minaret building that can be seen from any angle of the city, because it is the royal palace of the Duchy of Nota.
Leo wandered the streets in search of the Black Nightmare Flower, and he went to all the places where materials were bought and sold, and then to the taverns to inquire, but there was not even a clue to the edges.
If the big city is vast with people and no clue, Leo is in trouble for a while, let alone going back before the start of school, it is difficult to say whether he can complete the task.
"Get out of the way of you little deflated people, ask for money to go elsewhere, don't be Lao Tzu's way. ”
A loud shout on the side of the street woke up the pensive Leo, it turned out that a few little beggars were asking for money around a businessman-like person, and his heart moved quickly to the group of little beggars, and in their expectant, eager, eager eyes, he took out the piece of paper and showed the black flower on it, and said, "Have any of you ever seen this kind of flower?"
The little beggars looked disappointed and shook their heads in despair.
Leo thought for a moment and took out a small piece of gold from his bosom, "Well, whoever of you has ever seen this kind of flower will immediately tell me that this piece of gold is his." ”
The little beggars' eyes were fiery, and one of them said eagerly, "My lord, how should we inform you when we find it?" ”
"Huh. Leo smiled gently: "Don't worry, I'll wait here, you can come to that hotel to find me when you have news." ”
The little beggars looked at the inn that Leo was referring to, and then at the pattern on the paper, and after muttering for a while, they scattered and ran away.
I hope you can bring me good news. Leo muttered to himself, turning and walking towards the hotel.
The afternoon passed in a hurry, Leo sat in the lobby of the hotel and silently read his manuscript, in his previous life, he did not study medicine and had not been exposed to high-end knowledge such as cells, and spent several years in college in a complete daz.
'Cell' is a great existence discovered by wizards through the Mystery Finder, and the variability, adaptability, and transformation of cells have allowed wizards to make breakthroughs in the study of magical creatures and human bodies.
The most famous passage in cytology is that "every cell contains the information code of the subject, and as long as we find this information and crack its code, we are omnipotent gods." ’
The birth of cytology was a boon for cursed wizards, who invented all sorts of mysterious curses through cells, a drop of blood, a piece of skin dander, even a small piece of hair .......
Cytology is also regarded as a classic by bloodline wizards, implanting, fuse, transforming, and finding the blood in the depths of oneself, even if the limbs are damaged, the purpose of rebirth can be achieved by cultivating cells.
Leo has read this book of cytology in his hand I don't know how many times, if you don't read it once, there will be a new harvest, and there will be more questions, obscure and esoteric is the intuitive evaluation of his knowledge.
As night fell, the hustle and bustle gradually rose, the candles were lit in the inn, the people eating, drinking, and laughing became louder and louder, Leo was like a monk who saw through the red dust, not happy with things, not disgusted with sound, immersed in his own world.
"Brother, what are you doing as a knight learning from those mages, come on, brother, please drink. The drunken man picked up his glass and sat down straight.
Leo frowned and ignored it.
"Look down on my brother, no, I'm a senior knight, who doesn't know I'm a tiger in this area. The big man was a little annoyed and angry, and reached out to block Leo's gaze.
Leo looked up at the other party, the hand of the book was put into his arms, and a black worm appeared in his hand, and the spiritual power was slightly mobilized, and the insect raised its head and landed on the arm of the big man very quickly.
"What the hell. Dahan slapped it with a reflexive palm, and the insect was directly slapped into meat paste, Dahan didn't think he wanted to bring the wine to Leo, "Come, drink!"
Leo Gujing did not wave, his eyes looked intently at Dahan's arm, and in his gaze, a red dot began to appear on Dahan's arm, and the red dot became brighter and brighter, and finally a red blister the size of a grain of rice bulged.
The blister burst silently, and a strange black liquid flowed from it, flowing everywhere along the big man's arm, and everywhere the liquid passed was red spots .......
"Ah......h
'Bang la la'
Five or six people gathered around at once, and after seeing the appearance of the big man, one of them directly cut off the big man's arm, and was relieved when he saw that it was red blood that burst out.
The man put the knife into the sheath, ignored the fainting man, bowed to Leo and said, "Master Wizard, I'm sorry. I've already cut off one of his hands, and if you're not satisfied, I'll cut off the other. ”
At this time, his companion was full of anger, and the weapon was already in his hand, just waiting for the well-informed leader to say a word to dismember Leo's body on the spot, even if the other party was a mage apprentice at such a close distance, they were not without a fight.
Sorcerer?
Several people were puzzled, but when they saw the leader saluting with a frightened expression, they were at a loss for a while.
As early as when those people got up, Leo's spiritual power was already all around, and as long as the other party made any changes, he would definitely be able to strike first.
The method that Leo just cast was not witchcraft at all, but the embodiment of a magical creature that was strengthened by the effect, and the black worm just now was the magical creature that was found to corrode the runes.
Corrosive insects are only the lowest level of magical creatures, they can only absorb a small amount of magic from the outside world due to their own reasons, but if the magic factor is poured into their bodies, they can instantly expand their unique corrosive ability by more than ten times.
The owner of the inn looked frightened and helpless, and the people around him were worried and didn't dare to make a certain sound, although they didn't know what the wizard meant, but they knew very well about those knights, and even the leaders of several people were like that, let alone them.
"Your Excellency... Suddenly, a surprised voice sounded, but the voice suddenly turned into horror, obviously frightened by the scene in the field.
"Come in. Leo looked up at the little beggar who had entered, his eyes slightly expectant, ignoring the man who was still bowing down.
The little beggar swallowed nervously a few times before walking in with difficulty, the little beggar had never felt the gaze of so many people, and his already uneasy face turned even paler.
"Did you find anything?" asked Leo.
The little beggar was speechless and could only nod desperately.
Leo closed the book and stood up, "Go, take me." ”
It was not until the two of them had gone out for a long time that the saluting man stood up, exhaled, looked at his companion, and said, "Let's go, this is not the place to talk." ”
The others picked up the big man and walked out of the hotel after the leader, and on the way they finally knew what the leader had just done.
Wizards, that is a hundred times more dangerous than mages, a hundred times more strange existence, their means of dealing with ordinary people do not need to cast spells at all, they are a group of people with an indifferent temperament and disregard for life.
The inn was quickly gone, the boss looked relaxed and a little helpless, he walked to the place where Leo had just sat and found that a big hole had appeared in the table at some point, and the arm that had been cut off did not know where it went, and there was only a pool of foul-smelling liquid ...... on the ground.
