Chapter 61: The Mystery of the Worm

Burn medicine, the smell of large doses of burn medicine, this is one of the several flavors that Lin An is most familiar with.

Because the mechanical research institute often uses spray gun forging furnaces, there are always accidental burns.

And the cool and efficient burn medicine is much better than the itchy and unbearable "life technique".

Therefore, if it is not a severe burn, everyone will basically apply burn medicine for treatment.

The fragrance of anemone flowers mixed with green leaf mint is familiar to Lin An.

[Bearded man burned? Did this woman really come to heal him? Is it an ambush during a field mission?

But summoners of his age should have signed contracts in the spirit room, right? Even if you don't consider the squad he carried, who would be his opponent if three or four second-order demonic beasts came out together?! 】

In an instant, a large number of questions exploded in Lin An's head, and before entering the door, he was still thinking about discussing the question of tomorrow's practical class assessment with the bearded man, but now Lin An's mind was blank.

I want to ask the bearded man what happened to this mission, but he doesn't know how to speak.

It was during this brief hesitation that the female doctor in the school medical department had already gone away.

The bearded man glanced at Lin An, who was stunned in place, sighed and pulled him into the house.

As a middle-aged greasy uncle's room, the bearded room is not as messy as others imagined, and of course this may also be due to the fact that the apartment housekeepers have taken care of it.

In short, except for a luxurious wine cellar, his luxury apartment, which dominates one floor, looks really shabby and a little pitiful.

The bearded man walked behind the bar and casually opened a bottle of whiskey from the wine cabinet behind him.

Pouring about a third of the height of a whiskey glass, it slid down the top of the cherry wood directly in front of Lin An.

Lin An took the wine glass smoothly, he hadn't thought about what to say to the bearded man.

Holding the cup slightly in his right hand and not drinking, the bearded man who was a human spirit saw Lin An's appearance and knew that this kid saw something strange about himself.

No longer hidden, he sighed and spoke.

"You can see it, right?!"

"Hmmm......"

"When?"

"You notice it when you open the door."

"It's a talent!"

As this round of brief conversation ended, the bearded man took off his robe on his upper body.

The pale pink new skin that starts from the chest and abdomen and extends to the entire left arm is revealed, and most of the chest and abdomen are also covered with earthworm-like clusters and rotating sarcomas caused by irregular healing of skin muscles.

Obviously, this is a scar that has not been well treated at the scene of the injury, and it will take slow treatment to sort out this hideous scar.

Lin An looked at the extensive burns on more than half of the beard's body, and after being completely healed, he could still see the traces of muscle damage.

I couldn't help but start wondering what kind of attack could leave such a scar on an intermediate summoner with rich combat experience.

Without Lin An asking, the bearded man took out a piece of stuff wrapped in gauze from his trouser pocket, similar to a coke block.

Throw it into a glass full of whiskey, gently shake the pale golden liquid, you can see a little melted black slag, take a deep breath, and drink the whole glass in one gulp.

Then he sighed lightly, filled his glass again, and then told Lin An what had happened.

To put it simply, after completing the mission, their team unfortunately encountered a high-level summoner who was about to commit a crime, and it was only after a conflict with him that they were injured like this.

"Do high-level summoners commit crimes too?"

This is the question that Lin An had when he heard the brief description of the bearded, and this is not an idiot problem that lacks common sense.

A summoner who can be promoted to this point, once he unleashes his power wantonly, the scene is not much worse than that of the tight-clad fighters who fought to their heart's content in Fuyuki City.

Those who wield such power are essentially like beautiful members of the state who hold many powers.

Have you ever seen Congressman Midi arrested for taking bribes?

Therefore, a high-level summoner is regarded as a criminal by the empire, which is really beyond Lin An's imagination, he has power and money, and even most of the laws are blessed with it.

What kind of crime did he commit that would make the bearded man lead a team of students who were also first-order summoners to fight, regardless of the danger to their lives.

The bearded man drank the liquor in another gulp, and the black charcoal-colored gray spots flowed into the middle-aged man's throat and into his stomach.

Lin An seemed to be able to feel the sadness that this man unintentionally revealed, as if he had lost a family member or friend.

After the bearded man drank the liquor in his glass, the exhaled wine from his mouth and nose also had the sensation of strong alcohol stimulation.

It was as if it was spitting out a burning fireball and hitting Lin An's body.

As the pungent smell of alcohol burned Lin An's nostrils, he also heard the crimes committed by that high-level summoner.

"Evil God! Blood Sacrifice!! ”

Lin An was slightly stunned when he heard this, this was still the word he heard when he introduced the mission and history of the summoner in the first lesson of admission.

Just as the knight lord has to take on the responsibility of guarding the territory and going out to fight, the gentry also have the obligation to train the township and build a tent to give porridge.

As a summoner, you have to take on responsibilities while enjoying superhuman treatment.

Lin An didn't know exactly what kind of existence the Evil God Blood Sacrifice was, because the school had been vague about this aspect from the beginning.

I only know that this is a group of evil god heirs who can eat people's hearts and blood and feed on people.

They are also known as Blood Fiends, Filth, and a series of ominous words.

They are the mortal enemies of the human race, and they are the objects of the blood oath of all mankind to be destroyed for all generations.

Even human beings who have made a contract with them must suffer the same punishment.

However, compared to these obscure histories, he has never understood that in this world where a monster can devour strong men alive.

How could this group of demonic beasts be singled out and listed as the eternal enemies of the human race.

Seeing the bearded man's lost appearance, Lin An was embarrassed to ask.

But what kind of person is the bearded, and the kung fu of observing words and emotions has entered the realm.

Moreover, as Lin An, who has long been regarded as a reserve member by him, this information still has to be confided to him.

"The so-called heirs of the evil gods can be sacrificed to humans with infinite blood to become stronger.

They are like beasts that never fill their stomachs, and no amount of human life can fill the belly of this dog mongrel.

A village, a town, a city, a province, and even a country...... The dog mongrels who have signed a contract with it also ......"

At this point, the bearded man's emotions were already a little excited.

Lin An also understood why the bearded man, who was originally shrewd and calculating, would risk his life and forcibly start a war with a high-level summoner.

However, Lin An's mind was rippling, and he could devour human flesh and blood and become infinitely stronger.

How similar is the premise that this insect can become infinitely stronger by seizing the essence.

[Could it be that the so-called evil god heir is the primordial zerg?! 】

Lin Anxin thought so, but he didn't want to or dare to confirm it.

The primordial insect would never devour the flesh and blood of his clan in his hands, but he didn't know if the world would see him like this.

In case the so-called "evil god" heir who attacked the bearded man is really a strange worm.

With the historical burden of eternal hatred, he Lin An is afraid that he will not really be the enemy of the whole world at that time.

The more Lin An thought about it, the more he felt that this matter was not a score, his little tanji came out of the Great Summoning Array of Eternity, but this kind of insect egg was a product of the real planet.

The more he thought about it, the more Lin An felt that the possibility of the so-called evil god's heir was greater.

But suddenly thought that when he wanted to force the eggs, Senior Sister Dong, who was the daughter of a famous family, was also present.

With his experience, he may not know the truth about the heir of the evil god, but Dong Chan'er, as the daughter of the president of the Thousand Sails Chamber of Commerce and the niece of the vice president of Wanling Academy, how can she not know what the heir of the evil god is?

Lin An sat at the bar, staring at the bearded cup with "coke" in it.

The bearded man thought that he had seen the charcoal essence in his cup and thought of something bad, so he opened his mouth again to explain.

"Peace of mind! Apart from me, there were no casualties among the people in our school.

This is...... My summoning beast blocked a knife for me, and now there is only such a piece left.

It's a pity that the dog mongrel ran away.

Thankfully, there was no Natal Contract...... Maybe I expected this day to happen!

At least use my body to make its final belonging. ”

The pale golden liquid mixed with black carbon slag fell into the stomach pouch of the bearded man.

Lin An, who had experienced a night of life and death in the Spirit Spring, knew very well what the death of a summoning beast meant to the summoner, and it was by no means as simple as a huge payment of money.

Originally, Lin An, who had just come to discuss the exam countermeasures with the bearded man, did not expect to be disturbed by the sudden news, and he had no intention of thinking about the actual combat assessment anymore.

Lin An lifted the wine glass in his hand and slightly clashed the glass with the beard, which could be regarded as a tribute to his sacrifice of the beast.

Then he put down his glass and quietly turned around to leave.

Then I heard the bearded man's hoarse, mournful voice scolding.

"Labor and management have spent so much money, if you kid doesn't follow me because you're afraid, labor and management will have to discount your legs!!"

Lin An only felt funny when he heard this, he was probably the person who would not escape from the field support department.

Until he found out what the relationship between the "Evil God Heir" and the primordial alien worm was, he would never have escaped from the field team.

"Hey~ I may have died poor in my last life, instead of worrying about whether I will run away, it is better to worry about whether the little money in your pocket is enough to pay me a salary!"

"Heh~ You kid still wants to eat labor and capital, I want to see how big your belly is!"

There was no guarantee, and it was not a word of comfort, but seeing Lin An's attitude, the corners of the bearded man's mouth finally showed a little smile.
