Chapter 20: The Castle of Sin
"The scales of the high-level Demonic Beast Golden Viper, the feathers of the Phoenix, one of the four great divine beasts, and the roots of the Elven Clan's sacred tree. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 Info" Shamaphail pouted, "None of these three are easier than finding the Druids. ”
Li Wangxing shrugged: "The road to the pursuit of truth is so tortuous. ”
Although the chance is slim, it is still a hope. He flipped the pages back quickly.
The first fifty pages of the Codex of Truth are the contents of astrology, and the notes of this arcane master are meticulous, and Li Wangxing is amazed by the complex chart of the star tracks.
The next thirty pages were the content of the drawing runes, and the handwriting began to become sloppy, it was obvious that this was not the chapter that the owner of the note was interested in, many of the runes were drawn at will, and they were drawn on a whim, perhaps he focused more on studying the circle.
The last seventy pages are filled with all kinds of potions, including the raw materials, refining techniques, and efficacy of the potions. Li Wangxing directly turned to the legendary potion chapter at the end, and several bottles of potions left in the letter were impressively listed. He found the description of the Blood of Time and read it carefully.
Shamaphail fiddled with the bottles of potions in the box with great interest, picked up the bottle of the River of Years and held it up to his eyes to take a closer look, the green potion projected in his blood-red eyes.
"If I hadn't known beforehand, I would have thought the old man was a woman. “
"Oh, why?" asked Li Wangxing without raising his head.
"It's simple, this arcanist knows a lot about women's minds. Sha Mai Phir giggled: "The river of time is the nightmare of all women, and the thing that women fear most is not death, but aging." And the blood of time, this thing has no effect on improving mana at all, but it is more likely to make women crazy than anything. A face that never gets old is the ultimate pursuit of a woman. ”
"Oh, and I didn't see you go crazy either?"
"That's because my sister doesn't have a body now. Sha Mai Phil put down the potion bottle in his hand: "If I had known about this potion hundreds of years ago, I would have had to get my hands on everything." “
Li Wangxing continued to read the contents of the book, and did not listen to her random speculation.
Sha McFil may really be very interested in the old man Jerlen, took out the remaining copy of "The Vanishing Stars" in the box, flipped through it, and muttered in his mouth, so understanding women, this Jellan must not have been a serious person when he was alive, and he went to so many places in this world, maybe he had a lot of lovers.
She turned to the last page of the book, and a rune circle that was a quarter mutilated appeared in front of her.
This is the sword of Damocles, the most powerful attack circle? She knew that people like Geraln would not lie, so she held the book and read it carefully, silently calculating the rules of its operation along the lines of the runes, and the more she calculated, the more frightened she became, is this kind of magic circle really something that humans can draw? It is simply a masterpiece comparable to a miracle.
She just wanted to call Li Wangxing over to watch, when Li Wangxing raised his head in front of the book and said, "I have good news and bad news. ”
Shamaphail brushed the long hair that fell to his chest to the back of his head: "What's the bad news?"
"The blood of time is indeed a half-finished product, and only by finding those three raw materials will it have no effect at all. ”
"And what's the good news?"
"You don't have to have to get all three of these ingredients. Find the scales of the Golden Viper, the potion will last for a month, add the phoenix's feathers for a year, and if you put all three ingredients in it, it may be permanently set. All three of these things are hard to find, but I know where to find one of them. In the laboratory of the Holy See of Light, the Citadel, I heard that there is a two-headed golden viper. ”
Citadel, one of the two laboratories of the Holy See of Light, is mainly used to conduct live experiments on various living creatures. In the eyes of the world, it is an eerie and mysterious castle. Another laboratory burning tower occasionally hosts envoys from other countries, while the Citadel is never open to the public, never entered, and rumors about it are scattered.
It was on the outskirts of the royal city, where it was rarely visited, and the castle walls were mottled with deep cracks and crawling with plants, like a skeleton crawling in the fields. Occasionally, people passing by will hear all sorts of terrifying cries. Rumor has it that it is home to a variety of rare creatures, including the two-headed golden viper, the Komodo sea beast, and even the dark creatures left over from Jung's Finnish Red Dragon and the Dark Council.
The head of the Imperial Laboratory of Light, Sheephorn, and the Patriarch and the ten cardinal archbishops formed a twelve-member Council of Light, a powerful high-ranking member of the Holy See who never appeared in public, and only His Holiness the Pope and the members of the Council of Light had seen him in real terms. Moreover, each of the horns must also cultivate three different powers: mana, arcane, and magic, to be the enemy of such a character, Li Wangxing felt a headache when he thought about it.
Sha Mai Fil doesn't care, this chick has always been irrelevant to herself, hanging high, watching Li Wangxing's various struggles is her greatest pleasure now.
Li Wangxing thought for a moment and asked, "If you want to do it with all your might, how long can the Manifestation Technique last?"
"Well, with my current mana, if I do my best, I can last for four hours, but after this time, I can't perform the Manifestation Technique again for three days. ”
"Well, four hours should be enough. Li Wangxing nodded slightly, his head running rapidly, thinking of various feasible methods.
Now he has two spells, the Dark Moon Blade and the Sky Soaring Technique. Even with the addition of Shamaifei, an unreliable blood pact servant and the relics of Zheran, his hole cards are still very inadequate, and if he wants to enter the most mysterious place of the Holy See of Light and steal the scales of a high-level demonic beast, he will undoubtedly die an ugly death.
It seems that it can only be outwitted.
He knew that his talent for practicing spells was mediocre, but he was very confident in his calculation ability and memory, after all, he was also a top science student in his previous life, and he could win advanced mathematics, and he also memorized many books from the Holy See Library.
He extracted the information about the Golden Viper from his mind. In the two years he spent in Shengluo Cathedral, he had rarely seen a demonic beast, let alone such a high-level demonic beast. The golden viper, a high-level amphibian reptilian snake order monster, carnivorous, highly poisonous. The mature body is 15 meters long, weighs more than 1 ton, and is good at violent strangulation and venom attacks, and the scales metamorphose into a golden yellow when it evolves into a complete body. It is mostly seen in the Krasha Everglades, likes to prey on mussels, rats, insects, and monsters, and likes to eat digging dwarfs the most, and the natural enemies are high-level birds and birds.
There is still too little information, Li Wangxing sighed.
In fact, compared to the people who can be seen everywhere in other countries and the domesticated Warcraft live together, it is rare to see this kind of scene of harmony between people and Warcraft in the Empire of Light, because the goddess of light, Medina, is rumored to have been hit many times by the Warcraft army in the Millennium Holy War, and she believes that the wild and untamable Warcraft will never be able to coexist with people, they only worship brute force, and do not believe in light, so there is never a trace of Warcraft in her Light army.
After Saint Boyer established the Church of Light, he also adhered to the will of the goddess and stayed away from the demonic beasts. Especially after the appearance of the Sin Fortress, the relationship between the Bright Empire and the surrounding countries is still the worst with the Orc Kingdom, and the exchanges are scarce.
As for why the Chamber of Sin, a laboratory for conducting experiments on living organisms, exists, it is thanks to Pope Boye III and Emperor Susilo IV of Light.
At that time, the Bright Empire had just been established, and the Bright Emperor Susilo IV planned to reclaim the 100,000 Mountains and the Misty Forest as a strategic area in the future, but it was the primitive area where the demonic beasts were entrenched, and these local indigenous people naturally could not give up their territory to others.
After three failed attempts to send troops to the frontier, Susilo IV finally abandoned this hasty decision and, at the suggestion of Pope Boyer III, established the Guilty Castle to specialize in the study of all kinds of creatures.
The name of the Citadel comes from a quote from the Gospel of Andrew, the biblical scroll of demons: May the light cleanse you from your sins and be born again on the other side.
Because there have never been any major battles since then, no one knows how deep Castle Sin's research on Warcraft has been.
Li Wangxing rubbed his eyebrows: "It's the Longtan Tiger's Den, and you have to break through." ”
