Chapter 208: Memories

"This is the divine power obtained after killing the gods.

Agrea, when did you find out? ”

Caleb's voice came from the golden ball of light.

The contents of it made the two divine envoys look shocked.

He really did it, killing the gods....

Only Agrea had that on her face.

She crossed her waist, puffed out her chest slightly, and said proudly:

"Sure enough, as for when.

Of course, I found it at first sight.

It's just that I didn't expect you to actually kill a god.

Didn't you disconnect from my holy seal when you left this world before?

At that time, I was shocked, and I found out afterwards that you had gone to another world.

Don't underestimate me, I've traveled through the world. ”

Caleb's voice came, and there was a bit of helplessness in his tone.

"Sure enough, I knew about traveling through the world, and it was you and Hades who couldn't be hidden."

He clasped his hands together, rubbing the two holy seals under his gloves.

"I don't know what you're going to do, though.

But giving me the seal must have other meanings. ”

"yes, oh, what? Don't want it? ”

Agrea withdrew her smile and said seriously:

"Unfortunately, I can't tell you just yet.

But I promise it's not malicious to you.

If you don't like it, I can take it back. ”

"Hahaha.... No, no, no...."

Caleb's laughter rang out in the temple, and he laughed and denied:

"I didn't mean that, the Holy Seal helped me a lot.

On the contrary, I appreciate you, which shows that I have the value you need.

If people have no value, the consequences are the most terrible.

yes, the most terrible ....."

Caleb clenched his hands, and memories of the past began to come back to him.

It was the second year of his wanderings.....

The story of what happened after he was captured by a slave owner.

Bite! Bite! Bite! ....

In the dark tunnels, Caleb walked slowly with his heavy pickaxe.

He was surrounded by people who had suffered the same thing as him, carrying stones with numb faces.

This is the mine of a slave owner.

People here are flawed and cannot be slaves to commodities.

And Caleb has been here for a month.

Syllable!

The water-stained whip was thrown on Caleb's back again, knocking him to the ground

The already scarred back had another deep scar that could be seen in the bone.

"Stand up, you piece of shit!"

Caleb lay on his stomach on the ground, enduring the pain in his body.

He didn't scream, because it would only give him another lash.

Crash....

Dragging the heavy shackles on his feet, Caleb slowly climbed to his feet.

Deep black hair obscured his eyes.

Caleb glanced at the overseer through his hair, and dragged the pickaxe on.

Suddenly, a pair of large hands grabbed Caleb by the hair and grabbed him.

"What kind of attitude do you have! Yes? Rubbish! ”

Caleb was thrown to the ground, and he held his head, ready to endure the beating that followed.

This happened every day for a month, and Caleb got used to it.

The Overseer kicked Caleb with anger on his face, and his mouth was still full of words.

"Even this black hair has been ruined by your face, worthless thing!

It's already the greatest mercy to keep you alive....."

Boom! Boom!

Caleb was kicked hard in the abdomen.

The blood in the mouth mixed in the saliva spit out.

"Ahem! cough...."

Caleb did not resist and allowed the overseer to kick him.

"Huh... Hah...."

Finally, the overseer gasped and looked at Caleb in disgust as he lay on the ground like a dead body.

"Hurry up and stand up! If you can't complete today's task, see how I clean you up then! ”

Caleb did not stand up until the overseer was far away.

The others who walked around bypassed Caleb and ignored him.

It took a long time for Caleb to get up with his body that was almost falling apart, and slowly walked to the depths of the mine.

The people around him all turned their heads and didn't dare to approach him, and they all got out of the way.

I don't want to avoid it.

Just because Caleb's face was covered with a red rash, and he looked extremely ugly.

He was diagnosed with chickenpox, a serious illness that was difficult to treat in this era.

Even if this world has magic that can be healed.

No one would go to the church for the sake of a slave.

Not to mention a waste.

So he was thrown into this mine.

Working desperately for that bite of food that's hard to swallow.

Maybe at some point he will die silently in the dark tunnels.

But Caleb didn't give up, he was waiting.

Waiting for that chance to escape.

Crash.... Crash....

Caleb dragged the basket of stones that followed, and slowly came to the overseers.

“.... Good luck and get back in. ”

The overseer gave Caleb a disgusted look.

A piece of black bread, hard as a stone, was thrown at Caleb's feet, stained with dirt.

That's the only food he eats for the day.

Caleb did not hesitate and hurriedly picked it up.

He turned and went back to where he was sleeping, a dark cave.

There's no light in there, and the only good thing is that he's the only one here.

This is also the reason why he has chickenpox.

Those black-hearted merchants in order not to infect other slaves.

will let him live alone in this cave.

Caleb slowly walked to the edge of the pool, picked up the water and gently wiped his face.

"Hah...."

Water droplets ran across his face, and Caleb breathed a sigh of relief.

He slowly sat down on the edge of the pool and smiled self-deprecatingly.

I didn't expect that my talent would still be useful. ’

Mana overload

A special kind of magic disease that is almost impossible for ordinary people to produce.

Because of the conditions it creates, it requires the use of the mana circuit in the body for a long time.

Magic Circuit

An important magical organ used to refine and store mana.

It is similar to the acupuncture points and meridians in traditional Chinese medicine.

The so-called qualification test is what is measured.

When the magic circuit in the body is already full of magic power, it still runs the magic circuit to refine the magic power.

Then mana overload will appear.

The mana extracted by the mana circuit has nowhere to be stored and overflows into the body.

It will be like a short-circuited wire, and it will generate a lot of heat.

The specific manifestations are body fever, sweating, and weakness in the limbs.

If you stop at this time, it will not cause too much damage to your body.

If it doesn't stop at this time, it's still a highly operational mana circuit.

Then there will be an extreme burning pain.

The magic that overflows in the body will riot.

In the end, the magic circuit was completely fused and died.

Caleb suffers from his low qualifications, and the symptoms of mana overload are extremely mild.

In addition to the fever that is commonly generated, the most serious is the appearance of a rash on the body.

In addition, mana overload disorder is extremely rare.

Naturally, there are only a handful of people who know about mana overload.

Caleb's symptoms resembled chickenpox.

Only then was he deceived him.

'Hahaha... If it weren't for my talent.

I guess I've signed a slave contract with someone else now. ’

Caleb smiled and dipped the black bread in his hand to make it softer.

It's been a long time, and the situation here is almost clear. ’

Caleb took the bread in his mouth and groped his way to the corner of the cave, where there was a bulging bag of dirt.

It was dug up, and a package of rags lay quietly in it.

Caleb opened the package, and inside was the bread he had saved every day for the month.

Although it is very small every day, 30 days also saves enough for him to eat a full meal.

Brown bread is very unpalatable, hard as a stone, and extremely difficult to digest.

However, it has an extremely long shelf life and extremely low production costs.

It can be said that it is loved by those black-hearted slave traders.

He was glad that the food he was given was not liquid or perishable.

If it weren't for that, Caleb wouldn't have had a chance to prepare for escape.

Although the odds of success are low, how do you know if you can do it without a gamble. ’

Caleb picks up pieces of bread from the package and soaks it in water.

He chewed the bread in his mouth carefully and slowly into a puree.

Spit out the tiny pebbles in the bread and swallow it.

There are so many overseers in the mine that I can't get out on my own.

There's only one way a slave here can get out, and that's by turning into corpses.

As long as they die, they will be dragged out of the mine.....

Caleb didn't stop even after he had filled his belly.

Instead, eat your belly round.

Enduring the pain in his stomach, Caleb continued to dig in his original dirt bag.

Until a tree root as thick as an arm was dug out.

'There are many people in this cave who commit suicide by eating tree roots.

But no one knows the medicinal effects of the roots of the carrion flower, which is ironic. ’

Caleb rubbed the roots of the tree as if he had seen through them.

This is the root of the carrion flower tree, and its root system is able to penetrate the rocks and penetrate hundreds of meters underground.

There are many carrion flower roots in the mine, but no one dares to eat it.

Even slaves did not dare to eat it because it was poisonous.

As long as more than 10 grams are consumed, it will produce an extremely powerful paralyzing effect.

In severe cases, even the heart will be paralyzed, and he will die in extreme pain.

And it will continue to emit a smell similar to corpse odor for more than ten hours.

It is one of the main materials of the feigned death elixir and a veritable poison.

But as long as the dosage is used accurately, it works wonders!

It's been 1,943 seconds since I came back, and the next time the bell rings is after 12,473 seconds. ’

Caleb silently counted the time in his mind.

In the darkness of the underground mines, time seems to have vanished.

He can only use this way to keep time.

To be sure, he took a full three days off to make sure.

Touching the wall and snapping off a stone, Caleb gently rubbed the nails on his hands and feet.

I saw that his nails had become extremely sharp and sharp in the friction again and again.

He stuck his fingernail into the root of the tree, dug out a piece the size of a fingernail, and ate it.

I closed my eyes and quietly felt the changes in my body.

'The effect of the medicine disappeared in 337 seconds, and the paralyzing effect was very slight, if you converted it....'

Caleb silently dug through the roots of the tree with his fingernails.

With the help of the container of his nails, he dug enough for him to fake his death.

'It's almost 5.3 grams, the effect is expected to be 3423 seconds, close to 1 hour, and I still have time. ’

Caleb began to lie down in the pool to rest, gently soaking his whole body in the water.

After death, the body temperature will gradually converge with the ambient temperature.

This phenomenon is often referred to as corpse cold.

But Caleb is not dead, he needs to use this method to create a change in temperature.

When the overseers saw his "corpse", they were afraid of infection and chose to burn it.

Or drag him out of the mine and throw him away, everything will be revealed in a few hours.

“3499....3483....3465....”

Dangdangdang –

A bell rang out in a hurry.

Caleb opened his eyes, and he knew that the next time was to decide whether he lived or died.

He crawled out of the water and stiffened to the place where the roots of the tree had been placed.

Holding the roots of the tree and gnawing a few times, he spit the roots in his mouth into the pit and buried them.

Finally, eat the root pieces that you prepared earlier.

The properties of the medicine soon began to take effect, and Caleb fell to the ground stiffly.

As the minutes ticked by, Caleb looked like a dead corpse.

Until the sound of hurried footsteps came, and Caleb, who was paralyzed, knew who were men.

"Waste, I don't know if the bell is ringing, don't you hurry up! ..... vomit"

"Oh! It stinks so much here! ”

As soon as the group of people who came to Caleb entered Caleb's cave, they were smoked out by the stench of the shop.

Someone endured the stench and approached Caleb with a torch to inspect it.

"Hey! Waste, hurry up! ”

He stretched out his foot and kicked Caleb hard.

Caleb was kicked out and rolled on the ground two or three times without responding.

Just when he wanted to kick again.

He saw the roots of the tree that had been gnawed several times on the ground, and Caleb's bulging belly.

Suddenly he no longer doubted, turned his head and shouted outside:

"Find two people here, this waste eats the roots of the tree and dies, hurry up and carry him away."

At this moment, a voice that Caleb was very familiar with came into his ears.

"It's so cheap to die so soon.

The boss has specially instructed him to take good care of him. ”

The voice was the same overseer who had beaten him earlier.

"Oh? Did this guy off the boss? ”

One of the overseers asked, confused.

The overseer said with a sneer:

"A waste, the qualification test magic physique turned out to be a unique 1 point.

There was a rare black hair that was also disfigured by chickenpox.

The boss bought it from someone else at a high price.

What was intended to be the finale of the auction turned out to be worthless.

Can the boss not be angry when he loses a lot of money? ”

"Hahahaha.... I said, how do you throw a sick ghost here? ”
