Chapter 17: Potions (Thanks to readers 2021020920420014... The leader of the alliance! )
"In addition to the side branch and Koroy's side, there are many other nobles and forces."
"Even some church forces are involved." Christina said with a soft sigh.
She still likes Rosalina's girl quite a bit, and it is a bit too much to put such a heavy burden on that girl.
Roger, on the other hand, had completely narrowed his eyes into a slit, and a looming chill was released from his body.
Is it very capable, the aristocracy of the real power, the power of the church, the side branch of betrayal...... All together to bully a girl, you can imagine what kind of pressure is on Rosalina's thin shoulders.
He was really angry.
Even now, Roger is not sure what the relationship between Rosarina and Dolotia is, whether Rosarina is his own descendant or Dolotia's reincarnation.
If it is a descendant, then how can his descendant be bullied by others?
If it's Dolotia's reincarnation...... The only one who can bully Dolotia is Roger, and the others get out of the way! Dolotia buried him, and in Roger's heart, he complained, angry, and even hated Dolotia, but in any case, Dolotia was also his wife who Roger had worshipped and had sex with, so how could he allow others to get involved?
If you want to stretch out your claws, then be ready to die!
And that's exactly what Christina is all about.
It's not just that Roger has been favored by the goddess, and it's not just that he has mercy on Rosalina...... If Rosarina really marries Koroy, then she may be forced to follow her husband's family to change her faith and become a believer in the Church of Storm and War, and controlling the witch will definitely make the Church of Storm and War swell, which Christina does not want to see.
Christina wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to see Roger's hidden power.
I want to see through what kind of secret this young man who is not even an extraordinary person with no spiritual power but can easily crush a fourth-order transcendent...... If you can, it's best to turn it upside down. The kingdom of Lovell, this rotten and filthy backwater that is constantly being eroded, also needs a little different waves.
Roger's face was gloomy, and he still had a doubt in his heart, the witch's lifespan was almost endless, and he thought that Dolotia had lived for at least hundreds of years...... Roger tried to ask Dolotia about her age, but was stopped by Dolotia's suggestion that it was ungentlemanly to ask about the lady's age.
Why do you only survive for seven years now?
How much the world has changed in the past 30,000 years.
"Mr. Roger, please be careful of Chloe...... Don't think of Chloe as someone like Auston, who, though stupid, is a fifth-order transcendent in his own right, and as a believer in the Church of Storm and War, Chloe is much better at fighting and is an enemy to be reckoned with. ”
"Most importantly, Chloe is narrow-minded, jealous, and possessive."
"They are going to get married in a month, maybe he doesn't like Rosalina, just to seek the assets and secrets of the Ballett family, but you can't tolerate it if you hold his fiancée Koroy, and it will definitely be bad for you." Christina cautiously admonished.
Roger smiled when he heard this: "Miss Christina, don't worry, Chroy won't live for a few days." ”
Christina's golden eyes flickered slightly, where did he get his confidence, could it be just because of the holy relic in his hand?
Chloe's strength is by no means beyond the reach of Auston, and the holy relic can crush Auston, but it may not be able to do anything to Chloe, not to mention, as the earl's sister-in-law, who can guarantee that Chloe does not have a powerful holy relic on him?
Where does Roger's confidence come from? Is it that these circumstances are not taken into account, or is there something more powerful to rely on?
Christina's neck squirmed slightly, "You're going to kill Chloe?" ”
"Isn't that exactly what you expected?"
Christina was a little embarrassed when her mind was exposed, and she changed the topic a little stiffly: "By the way, Mr. Roger, where are you going to take the potion?" I recommend you take it here. ”
"Taking potions is also a dangerous thing, the Sanctuary is under the protection of the goddess, and it is safer for me to stay by my side."
"Then here it is." Roger didn't refuse Christina's kindness.
Although Christina tried to take advantage of herself, this was normal, and Roger was not angry at this little thing, on the contrary, he was grateful to Christina for the information he had provided him.
And this is the sister-in-law's territory, even if something really goes wrong when taking the potion, that sister-in-law should at least not watch herself die.
With a flip of his hand, the potion that Christina had given to Roger before reappeared in his palm, and he looked at the bottle in his hand that looked like mineral water: "How to use it?" ”
"Just drink it."
"It's that simple?" Roger raised his eyebrows: "Don't you need any preparation, such as singing a hymn to the goddess, a hymn to the goddess or something?" ”
Christina shrugged her shoulders, this action was a little inappropriate for the elegant Christina, but the jumping chest in the process of shrugging was particularly eye-catching: "If you want to prepare, you can do it, but according to the statistics of the church, chanting the hymn of the goddess before taking the potion has no obvious effect, and the success rate is about the same." ”
"Singing hymns is not even as effective as smoking a cigarette to relax your mood."
"After all, hymns are too long and cumbersome, and it is easy to make mistakes when singing, and if they make mistakes, they can lead to nervousness and fear, and fear and nervousness are the most important reasons for failure."
Well, Roger placed his top hat on the table, and without hesitation, he grunted the liquid from the bottle.
Well, it feels a little weird.
The cold, creamy, slightly viscous liquid slowly poured into the mouth and slid across the esophagus, as if the slender silky tentacles were wriggling inside the body. His body twitched like an electric shock, and his eyes quickly became blurred, and strands of translucent silk threads seemed to be dense wireworms, either floating in mid-air or tangled together.
Consciousness seemed to float into the air, and the entire body could be clearly seen, and there was an extra vortex in the body, spinning, looming and breeding a faint attraction, devouring the surrounding aura.
The slow process annoyed Roger.
Is this the way of practice now, and it's too inefficient, right?
I think that at the beginning, 30,000 years ago, the mouth was full of aura, and the degree of aura exhaustion was a bit too exaggerated.
Inside, the potion is gradually being digested.
Right next to the body, Selubellia and Christina were guarded on both sides, and their faces were solemn, not daring to relax in the slightest.
After watching Roger for a while, he felt bored, and his consciousness sank back into his body, actively guiding the spiritual power to circulate in his body.
In fact, people who have just taken potions can only perceive the free aura in the air at most, and perceive the aura slowly entering the body, and it is absolutely impossible to manipulate the spiritual power, only after obtaining the coat of arms, and after the body adapts to the existence of the spiritual power, can they take the initiative to guide or even manipulate the spiritual power.
However, this step is not stressful for Roger.
A line of words was rapidly emerging in Roger's mind, written in the Codex left by Dolotia inside his coffin.
Dolotia's Codex, Volume 1: Imperishable!
Based on Roger's experience, it is easy to see that this is a very different way of practicing now, and even 30,000 years ago, at least in the first volume.
The practice of immortality is not focused on the gathering and use of spiritual power, but the use of spiritual power to refine and strengthen one's own body, and the cultivation to the extreme can even use the body to resist powerful secret methods and strange holy relics.
Roger had studied Dolotia's Codex in detail, and with his knowledge and vision, he could not see any loopholes, flaws, or even traps in the practice methods recorded in the Codex, and only after confirming that there was no problem did Roger embark on this path.
The only possible trouble is that the difficulty of cultivation is very amazing, even if it is only the first layer, you need to collect six different potions from the six major churches to gather yourself and digest them all before you can get a first glimpse of the door!
The spiritual power that gathered into his body drilled into every cell, strengthening every piece of flesh and blood in Roger's body.
Just when Roger was concentrating on his cultivation, he didn't notice that a strange phantom gradually emerged in the depths of the sea of knowledge.
What kind of existence is that, even if it is a pure consciousness body, a soul body, it is full of indescribable distortions, like a huge lump of dark flesh, and the dense tentacles are like manes covering the surface of the flesh, floating in Roger's sea of consciousness.
It was a wisp of remnant soul left in Roger's body by the evil spirit destroyed by Roger with Big Ivan in the starry sky when he tried to erode Roger.
The piece of meat slowly drifted towards Roger's consciousness, and even a distorted face appeared on the surface of the piece of meat, as if smiling.
A large crack appeared on the surface of the flesh, deep like a black hole, and it was full of dense spiraling sharp teeth.
Inside the cavity, an angry and greedy roar erupted, and the filthy sound turned into distorted fluctuations, setting off a tumbling tide:
"Eat!"
"Eat!"
"Eat!"
