Cthulhu Gonfalon Chapter 69:


"This is the gift that you think is very valuable and worth disturbing me for?" One of the only two marquis of the Gold Coin Federation, the current Marquis of Dark, Rason Dark, looked at the little crystal. The bottle, his eyes filled with displeasure, "A bottle of alchemy potion... Is it capable of making a magic weapon? Or can it give me an indestructible body? Or, it is colorless, tasteless, and cannot be detected by poison detection spells. , But can kill people?"

The fat man standing in front of him with his waist bowed, his face was sweaty, half from running wildly, half from nervousness. He knew that the adult he was serving had a bad temper and would easily get angry if he was disturbed to enjoy himself, but he knew that if he didn't deliver this precious potion to the adult in the first place, it would be even worse if he was known later.

So he stood there tremblingly, and waited until the Marquis of Duck finished the fire, and then whispered in a respectful tone: "My lord, this is a bottle of life-prolonging potion."

"Life Extension Potion?" Marquis Duck looked at the bottle with some doubts. The light red clear potion in the bottle looked ordinary, not as if it could prolong life.

"Yes! It can prolong lifespan. To be precise, it can temporarily stop the aging of the user's body, and the effect can last about ten years."

Listening to Fatty's introduction, Marquis Duck couldn't help being curious.

As one of the de facto rulers of the Gold Coin Federation, he has amazing power and wealth, and he can naturally get a lot of treasures. But even so, things that can extend life are not so easy to obtain. Even for him, it is true.

In theory, it is not difficult to extend life. Whether it is the fruit of the tree of life in the Primordial Forest, the Fountain of Youth in Longya, or finding a group of powerful wizards to hold a life renewal ceremony, they can effectively extend their lifespan. But these methods are quite difficult to practice. The tree of life has long since disappeared with the fall of the elves and gods, and no one knows where it is; Dragon Cliff is not hard to find, but the mortal king looks at the treasure of the great Dragon King. , It is really a bit of a suspicion of death; as for finding a group of mages to continue their lives... the cost is high and the price is high enough to make most kings feel distressed, and it is beyond the capacity of most countries.

After all, although the king is noble, but he has heirs, wasting a huge amount of wealth in order to make a bad old man live for a few more years? The country is not the king's private property! Even if he is willing, those who share state power will never allow it!

In this world, it is not difficult for the strong to live long, but it is even harder for mortals to continue their lives, even for kings.

So, does this potion really have such a wonderful effect as my subordinate said?

"Fat Tiger, to be honest, I don't believe it." He said, "If it is such a magical thing, it would be about the same if a great mage sent it to me, you...tsk."

He shook his head, a little disdainful.

The fat man, who was despised by his boss, laughed bitterly and explained in a low voice: "This was just appeared at the auction house today, and people from the Void Mask Church brought it up for auction. It is said that your majesty is in a good mood and made such a deal. Kind of potion, will two bottles be auctioned."

The Marquis of Darke lifted his spirits and immediately believed a little bit.

This kind of life extension is of course difficult for mortals, but for an omnipotent god, what is it? Not to mention, that Majesty the Void Mask has vast magical powers, even among the gods, he is particularly powerful.

If it were his work, it wouldn't be strange at all.

Just...

"What did your Majesty Masked Void make this for?" He picked up the crystal bottle and played with it, and said wonderingly.

"The idea of ​​that majesty has always been wonderful and unique, maybe he just finds it interesting..."

The subordinate's speculation made the Marquis of Dark laugh dumbfounded, but after thinking about it carefully, it seemed to be quite reasonable-how many things that your majesty did are normal? How many are easy to understand?

Will normal people build a playground in the ice and snow? of course not!

"Yes, after all...He is a jellyfish." He smiled and said, "It's not a good idea for humans to speculate about the jellyfish's thinking."

After speaking, he put the crystal bottle on the tray held by the maid beside him and stood up.

"Come with me, let's visit the Void Mask Church."

"...This is indeed the potion auctioned by our church, and it was given by the Lord himself." A pastor of the Masked Void Church carefully checked the bottle and the potion in it, and finally said with certainty. , "Yes, it's a life-enhancing potion."

The Marquis of Darke smiled, picked up the crystal bottle with the stopper removed, and drank the little potion in one gulp.

"The grass is fragrant, and it smells a little bloody." He smacked his lips and said thoughtfully, "Could it be that the raw material is dragon blood? I never heard that dragon blood can be drunk directly."

"My lord's supernatural power is not something mortals of my generation can guess." The priest replied with a smile.

The ruler of the Gold Coin Federation nodded, closed his eyes, and used his magical ability, which is better than nothing, to sense the condition of his body.

After a while, there was a surprise on his face, and he was smiling.

Although it is not very clear, he did feel a certain change in his body, and the feeling of aging that had been increasing since the age of fifty disappeared.

This is not to say that he regained his youthful vitality all at once, but that he really felt that he had stopped aging, as if the power of time had suddenly lost its effect on him.

"This is really amazing!" He said happily, "How many potions are there? I'll buy them all!"

"Master Marquis, birth, old age, sickness and death is an iron law that everything cannot violate. Even my lord can only delay this process a little bit." The pastor who had already received instructions from Sui Xiong replied, "For the same person In other words, one bottle of medicine is enough. If you take it ten years later, only one-third of the effect will be left. If you take it for the third time after thirteen years, there will be almost no effect."

The Marquis of Duck frowned, but he was not disappointed. It is already a great harvest to live for another ten years. As a successful ruler and businessman, he has always been very clear that "being a man cannot be too greedy." The truth.

But after thinking about it, he had an idea again-if he trades this magical potion with those big people whose status is comparable to him, he will definitely get extraordinary benefits!

It's just... he tentatively asked: "Does Masquerade Void distribute a lot of such potions?"

"Not much." The priest replied, "Your Majesty said that there are not too many people in a country who can afford this medicine, so He has distributed a few bottles in every country's capital, that's all."

The Marquis of Dark sighed: "Sure enough! I can think of things, there is no reason a **** can't think of it."

He didn't have any particular regrets, and he urged that if he had any more of this medicine, he must keep a bottle for himself. Money is not a problem.

Although the second bottle can only extend his life for three years, three years is also great!

A similar situation happened this night in the capitals of various countries on the main plane. The great figures above all were shocked by a bottle of light red potion in this area, and ecstatically spilled a lot of money. .

Not only that, because of the effects of life-prolonging potions, senior officials in various countries have a good impression of the Void Mask Church. Even the Holy Angel Kingdom, which has always been exclusive, has rarely expressed kindness to the Church of the Void Mask.

"Mortals are really fragile!" Looking at the piles of gold coins, Sui Xiong couldn't help but sigh, "It's just a mere ten years of life that makes them so crazy!"

"Fortunately, it is only ten years of life!" The God of Justice shook his head and sighed, "If it is longer, I am afraid you will be in great trouble!"

"What can I have trouble with?"

"Between us brothers, we won't talk about the old man's nonsense that'life and death is the order of the world', I just say a little!" The God of Justice looked at Sui Xiong with a very serious expression, "There is money and there is Powerful people can live for more than ten years, which is wrong in itself! If it really allows them to live longer, or even live indefinitely, then brother, I will stop you!"

Sui Xiong was stunned, pondered for a while, and nodded silently.

The God of Justice is right. For those rich and powerful, "death" is almost the only thing equal to the poor. If they can live indefinitely because they are rich and powerful, and can afford enough life-extending potions, then even this last equality has been wiped out.

In such a situation, not only will the **** of justice be dissatisfied, even Sui Xiong himself will not be able to pass it...

However, the current situation is finally not so bad. It is not a serious problem if it is just a ten-year extension of life.

After all... the rich and powerful live better than the poor, and live longer, no matter which world they are in, it is very common, and there is nothing wrong with it.

It's not good to look at money, but it's not necessary to hate the rich.

"What should I do with this money?" He asked, looking at the pile of gold coins.

"You can do whatever you want." The God of Justice said nonchalantly, "Money is something that you can use if you use it, if you don't use it, forget it~ IndoMTL.com~ If you can't think of a use for the time being, It’s not bad to stack up as a bed."

"Huh?" Sui Xiong was taken aback, and couldn't help but think of a famous legend.

So he thought of the purpose of the money.

A few days later.

"No! Don't! Let me go! Let me go!" Hao clung to her beloved bedding, shouting, "I'll stay here! I won't go anywhere! Let me go! Let go! Me!"

Probably because of her potential, Gerrard dragged her a few times but couldn't drag her away. Instead, he was so tired and gasped.

When Sui Xiong saw this, he had no choice but to make a move by himself, using huge tentacles to roll her together with the bedding.

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuu! What you say doesn't count! I've made it clear to let me see the maze..." Sao wailed, thinking that she was about to lose this rich job, tears hit the ground drop by drop, splashing a lot of dust .

A few minutes later, they came to a newly built cave in Sui Xiong, which was similar to the previous one, but deeper. Behind the cave, there is a teleportation array leading to the ground, which can facilitate communication.

"This is your new home." Sui Xiong put Hao down, "I just want to change your bed for you."

Hai's eyes widened, looking at the pile of gold coins that were almost bigger than her body, although the tears were still dry, she laughed wildly.

She jumped out with the agility that even Sui Xiong was shocked. She lay on the pile of gold coins, stroked the pile of gold coins with her paws like swimming, and laughed happily.
