Advent of the Archmage Chapter 597: Unsolved poison!
The orc's headless corpse was lying by the creek, with dark green sticky blood coming out of the neck fracture, and there were also many gray scars on his body. Link looked closer, I saw that these scars were covered with gray-white fluff, like white hyphae growing on spoiled plants.
What's even more surprising is that although the corpse was cut off from his head, he hasn't died yet, and his hands and feet twitched a bit, showing his strong vitality in his body.
Nearby, Link ’s peculiar familiarity is getting stronger, but it is plausible. At this moment, Link hears footsteps from behind him. Someone is coming. It is from the clay court. Several mercenaries should come to deal with the corpses.
Linke quickly took out a crystal bottle, received a bottle of dark green blood, and then his body backed away. Three magics were instantaneous on the way, which were stealth, floatation, void walk, three magics. In one go, he fell into the air silently and disappeared.
After hiding, he walked around in the tall grass of Qiren, and then walked out from another place, pretending to be the one who just released his hand.
Not long after standing, a mercenary of the mercenary regiment came towards the small caravan, and when he approached, he exclaimed: "Dear everyone, the situation is different today, and there may be restlessness at night. Chang hopes that you can all get together tonight and take care of each other. "
This is a daring feeling, all businessmen looked at each other. If there is a carriage, put the reins on the horse, and pull the truck all the way to the rest place of the red clay business; if there is no carriage, take the horse and pass, and soon, more than 300 people will gather together, including people The carriage and livestock stayed in a circle around the periphery, forming a very solid temporary camp.
Linke also followed the flow of people and took a few steps. A half-bearded man squeezed around him. It was Orang, the father of the girl Sally.
He whispered to Link: "Young man, stay away from my daughter in the future!"
Linke found it very interesting, and smiled and answered, "I don't think I've ever found her, have I?"
Orangese, a few seconds later, he again said: "My daughter is not suitable for you. She is young and too naive. I only had such a daughter when I was 40 years old. I don't want her to be harmed."
Linke asked back with a smile: "I am such a person in your eyes, always thinking of trying to seduce the little girl's rogue, and then finally hurt her?"
Olang shook his head: "No, I'm not talking about your character, but your swordsmanship. Swordplay is a killing technique. People who approach it can either kill or be killed."
Linke asked: "What if she has Xeon swordsmanship?"
Ao Lang smiled bitterly: "We are all just ordinary people. How much can you teach her swordsmanship? Even if my daughter can really practice some skills, what is it compared with those who are really strong? She died because of swordsmanship, and I would rather she never learn. "
If you do n’t go to school, you wo n’t be able to enter the **** world of the strong, and you will always live the lives of ordinary people, perhaps humble, but at least the life can be stable.
This is the survival logic of ordinary people. It is very intelligent. Link did not expect to hear this from a businessman. He glanced at Oran slightly unexpectedly.
Olang sighed: "Young people, heroes have only two endings, either immortal or short-lived. The number of the latter is thousands of times the former, and I ... do not want my daughter to be a hero . "
How short-lived heroes have been since ancient times is the truth.
Linke was convinced by him. He really did not try his best to teach Sally. At most, it was only a few tricks. This is not to help her, but to harm her.
He spread his hands and said, "Since you said so, I agreed."
"That's good, thank you, young man." Orang even gave a gift to Link, faintly seeing the shadow of the nobleman's etiquette.
Linke glanced at him a little by surprise, and when he saw it, Orlando explained: "My father was a powerful knight. As a kid, I used to think he was invincible, but he died. No bone remains. "
After speaking, he crossed with Link, followed by a swollen Sally.
Linke shrugged at her, saying he loved nothing. Sally's grieving tears were falling, and she snorted coldly, ignoring him.
Soon, the businessmen gathered together. Under the guidance of mercenaries, a temporary camp with a very good defense was quickly formed. The businessmen gathered in a large circle composed of horse-drawn carriages and livestock and started again. Lighting and bundling.
So far everything seems very quiet.
Linke also found a secluded corner, chopped some wild grass at will, and spread it on the ground not far from the bonfire. The blanket he carried with him became a temporary covering.
At this time, it was already dark. Link lay on the pavement and closed his eyes. He seemed to be resting, but he was actually reading a magic book.
This is his path of practice, and he will not relax anytime.
After watching for more than half an hour, he heard footsteps coming towards him again, and didn't bother to open his eyes. Most of his mind was still looking at the magic book, and a small part of his mind felt this approaching fellow.
This is a mercenary hired by the Red Clay Chamber of Commerce, distinguished from the sound of footsteps. Link recognizes him. His name is Arda, the third-ranked mercenary, and a fourth-level early soldier.
He walked to Link, stopped his footsteps, and said, "Boy, I heard you know swordsmanship?"
"A little." Link nodded, eyes too lazy to open.
Arda is very patient: "You saw that orc just now?"
Linke nodded.
Arda explained: "In fact, there are two kinds of weird orcs. One was killed by us and the other fled. We suspect they are scouts. Maybe they will attack us tonight ... their The blood is poisonous. The leader Miro and several good hands in the team are poisoned. We need some good hands to help the vigil. "
In his eyes, Link was able to walk alone on the grassland. Regardless of martial arts skills, his survival experience must be very rich. Now that he is short of manpower, he will naturally come to help. In fact, Link is not the only one. One, the whole caravan was strong and strong, and he was assigned some vigil missions.
Link is interested in these weird orcs now. Since he said that, he nodded and said, "Well, what are your plans?"
Alda thought that Link was not good at talking, because the young man seemed very silent along the way, but he didn't expect it to go so smoothly, he was a little happy, and said, "Yes, we are short of staff in the east. If so, how about helping the middle of the night? "
"No problem." Link rolled up the fur covering on the ground very simply, and walked towards Arda's finger.
Along the way, he paid close attention to the surrounding conditions, and he found that the mercenaries looked very dignified. Through the crowd, Link saw the poisoned mercenaries.
There are three mercenaries. At first, the blood on the mercenary's face, which had been blinded, has been cleaned up, but at this time his face showed a thick green, and it looked like the orc, his The body was still shaking unconsciously, and his mouth was babbling with nonsense. Beside him were two mercenaries who killed the orcs, including the mercenary leader Mirow.
Mirro ’s situation is the best. His face is the lightest green, and he can still move. From his walking posture, Link can see that his physical condition is very bad. 50% cannot be achieved, and as time goes by, the deeper the poisoning, the situation will only get worse.
"If these two orcs are really scouts, it is estimated that there will be a sneak attack tonight. Forget it, let me do it."
As of now, he needs to study the toxins in the orc's blood.
When he got to the ground, Link found that his vigil was an empty gap cleared from the carriage's cargo compartment, which was quite windproof, and he was alone, and no one else could see him, which was pretty good.
Linke covered himself in this vacancy and sat in himself, listening to the movement around the camp with one ear upright, while taking out the orc blood he had collected before and began to study its toxicity.
According to alchemy, since it is poisonous, it must have its properties and a corresponding neutralizer. Some poisons have many attributes, but as long as they follow the regular alchemy method, it is still easy to find out the specific toxicity.
Of course, knowing the properties of poison does not mean that you can detoxify.
The reason why some poisons are difficult to solve is that various attributes are entangled according to complex rules, so the antidote will be very difficult to match, and may even have no solution.
It ’s like a mathematical equation. It may be a combination of Arabic characters and letters. It ’s very simple. You can easily understand many equations. Find the perfect solution and get angry with you alive.
At this time, no one paid attention to him, Link started to test one by one. After ten minutes, he stopped.
This poison is very simple. The attribute ratio is also very clear. The basic elements of the five systems of gold, wood, water, fire, and soil are entangled according to a certain proportion and method. However, its refining method is very special. There are more than 20 kinds of detoxification methods, but there is still no corresponding solution.
This is the first time he has seen such a poison since his alchemy came to an end. This poison-maker not only has a high skill, but also has a very hard heart!
Lin Ke frowned slightly: ‘It turned out to be a poison without solution? Who is it that actually makes such a vicious toxin? ’
There is no solution to the toxin, and the poisoned one will surely die. Lin Ke probes out of his hiding place, glances at the three poisoned mercenaries by the bonfire, and a flash of compassion flashes in his heart.
At this time, the mercenary leader can still move, but the poison deepens, and his strength is constantly weakened. At this time, he has already shown obvious weakness.
He seemed to feel that his death was coming. At this time, there were several mercenaries gathered around him, and he was talking to them. Link heard a few ears, and the man was already telling himself what happened.
When speaking, the mercenary leader didn't have much sorrow and fear, but a kind of indifference to see through life and death.
Linke's pity is even more pitiful: "Unfortunately, a talent, a good mercenary, if you come to my field, inject the power of the sun. With his talent, future achievements must be above level 8."
Sighing, there was suddenly a heavy breathing sound in the camp. 'Hoo ~ hoo ~' was like a bellows. There were also many weird hums, and Link quickly positioned the sound. The direction turned out to be the most poisoned mercenary.
He was breathing heavily, with a snake-like hissing sound in his throat, his eyes quickly disappeared, his whole eyes quickly turned black, and many white patches appeared on his face, and many white hyphae Grow out.
This looks almost the same as the killed orc! (To be continued.)
