Chapter 52: The Blood of God
(I'm sorry, the fuse at home blew out today, and now I can update it, and there is only one update today!)
Leng Fei looked at the broken bones all over the ground, knowing that Sanji in front of him had indeed experienced a protracted battle, and he could only smile bitterly at this.
"You are the Sanji of the Alchemy Guild?" Leng Fei looked at the old mage who was about fifty years old, and couldn't help but say: "It's great to be able to find you, we are people from the Bounty Hunters Guild, and we have received a task to find you, and take you out of the forest, even if the mission is completed." ”
"You're the one who came to save me?" Sanji couldn't help but put down his staff, glanced at the bronze badge on Leng Fei's chest, and couldn't help but smile: "It doesn't look like the level is too high! However, being able to find this place in the Misty Forest can be regarded as having some skills, in that case, stay with me for a while!"
"Our task is only to take you out, and besides, our time is very expensive and cannot be wasted on you. Leng Fei refused Sanji's request without hesitation, in his opinion, it was definitely a waste of time, and said, "We will send you out of the Misty Forest safely." ”
"No, I'm not going out, and now that the purpose of my coming here has not been achieved, how can I return in vain?" Sanji looked very excited, and then smiled: "I see that you are also mercenaries! So, from now on, I will hire you until I achieve my goal?"
Leng Fei glanced at Sanji in a slightly surprised way, he didn't expect the other party's reaction to be so fast, and glanced at the badge of the Frost Blade Captain on his chest, for mercenaries, the biggest source of income is to be hired by their employers, and they can accept tasks in private. It's just that private quests won't get the Mercenary Guild's rating, and at the same time, they won't be raked commissions, and they can also get a decent commission.
"Our commission is very expensive, I'm afraid you can't afford this price!" Leng Fei's mouth curled slightly, and he sneered: "Don't treat us as ordinary mercenaries, we have more important things to do!"
"Ten thousand gold coins! I'm willing to pay that price as long as you help me find that item. Sanji knew his situation at this time, and said, "I can pay half of the gold coins first, and then pay the other half when we return to Fort Elan, do you think it's okay?"
Sanji offered such generous conditions, which had to surprise Leng Fei for a moment, after all, 10,000 gold coins was not a small amount, and at the same time, it had to be said that a senior alchemist was indeed a tyrant-level existence. Alchemists are more interested in material things in human society, unlike magicians, who like to pursue spiritual feelings, and it is precisely because of this that magicians have always looked down on the existence of alchemists.
"What the hell is it?" Leng Fei looked at Sanji's face and couldn't help but say: "This head of the regiment will not put all the team members in danger for a little commission, if I don't know what you want to get, I won't easily agree." ”
"What a calm fellow!" Sanji scratched his head and said helplessly, "Okay! I'm looking for the raw materials to make the Philosopher's Stone." ”
"The Philosopher's Stone?" Leng Fei glanced at Audrey suspiciously, after all, only she had a more thorough understanding of alchemy, and asked, "The Philosopher's Stone, what is that? Is it a very powerful thing?" Audrey, what do you think?"
Audrey frowned, she did know something about the Philosopher's Stone, or rather, it was the highest alchemy that Kaos had been pursuing, the Legend has it that the Philosopher's Stone is the most powerful sacred object of the alchemist, not only can it not only immortalize the alchemist, but also can make the alchemist completely lose the need for the medium, and at the same time release spells that are more powerful than the magician, which is the supreme pursuit of the alchemist.
"Is this the Philosopher's Stone?" Leng Fei frowned, looked at Sanji and asked, "Since it is a legendary existence, why do you need anything to refine the Philosopher's Stone?"
"I really didn't lie to you, I accidentally got the codex of the predecessor of the god of alchemy, Kaos. Sanji knew that this matter had to make Leng Fei believe everything he said, and said with a smile: "Before, I originally wanted to go to the Demon Castle and control the demon of Kaos's predecessors, in that case, I would have a great chance of success, but I didn't expect to even enter the door, so I had to enter the misty forest alone." ”
Leng Fei frowned, he was basically sure that Sanji was not lying, because Sanji had no chance to lie in front of him, so he was very curious why Sanji came to the Misty Forest alone, obviously to the point of running out of ammunition, but he still wanted to go deep into the Misty Forest, and what he wanted to get was so precious, what made him even more curious was whether the Philosopher's Stone really existed.
"So what? What exactly do you want?" Leng Fei said unmoved, "What is the raw material of that Philosopher's Stone?"
Leng Fei's pressing step by step made Sanji stunned for a while, he had a lot of information, but it was not for outsiders, but he also understood that it was impossible to complete the task on his own now, and at this time he had to rely on the power of Leng Fei and others.
"I didn't want to say it. Sanji finally gritted his teeth and said, "What the Philosopher's Stone needs is the blood of the gods. ”
"God's blood?" Leng Fei's eyes suddenly widened, looked at Sanji and said, "In the depths of the misty forest, is there God's blood?"
"Yes, you should have noticed the difference in this forest. Sanji said helplessly: "According to the exploration of Kaos's predecessors, the reason why this forest was formed was because a god fell here, and the body of the god and the godhead are in the depths of the forest, including the blood of the god. ”
"Are you saying that the guy who formed this huge realm is already dead?" Leng Fei's eyes flashed, as if he had thought of something, and then said: "Do you know where the specific location is? We can help you get the blood of the gods, but unfortunately it seems that the commission is a little insufficient!"
"What more do you want?" Sanji frowned and said, "I have nothing left to pay you." ”
Leng Fei smiled, he didn't care much about the blood of the gods, he valued the existence of the gods themselves more, he had not really seen the existence of the gods, and at the same time solved the reason why such a powerful realm could exist for thousands of years. Others may not have much effect on the corpse, but in Leng Fei's hands, it will definitely turn waste into treasure, become a big killing weapon, and even become a more terrifying existence than before his death.
Lilith also stretched out her fragrant tongue and licked her red lips, her eyes showed a bloodthirsty light, the blood of the gods is definitely a great supplement for her, I believe that as long as she drinks the blood of the gods, she will definitely be able to raise her strength to the next level, and then she will become the strongest person under the Leng Fei seat. Lilith has the strongest bloodline of the blood clan, but she has not been able to exert the corresponding strength, that is, there is no equal blood to replenish her energy, as long as she can continue to suck blood, her strength will become stronger all the time, of course, low-level blood, she does not bother to suck it.
