In the main city hospital, Hippoc Pios looked at the wind in the coffin and smiled excitedly: "Interesting, the curse of shadow magic. Such symptoms make me want to challenge." He turned his eyes and stared at
Ryder said: "Requesting treatment from Desert Rock City requires a price. For his illness, what kind of price can you afford?"
"Can the city lord cure him?"
"I can't guarantee it. But you still need to pay the full price."
Ryder said: "I hope the city lord will cure him."
Pios looked at Gale in the coffin again, and saw many fine dust floating around his broken body. These dusts and the suppressive force in Gale's body were enough to form a shrinking force: "Can you use this
This method forcibly kept his body from being disintegrated, and the person who saved his life was extraordinary. But this can't last long, and if the fundamental problem is not solved, death will be the result sooner or later." He thought about the treatment plan, but did not give a clear answer.
Said: "Huangyan City has accepted the person. I can't guarantee that he will be completely cured. If the person behind you cannot accept this answer, he will be taken away."
Ryder turned around and thought for a moment, then turned around and asked, "What are the conditions for Desert Rock City?"
"Such a strange disease must be worthy of the price of treating it. The person who asked you to bring him here must have considered this issue." Pios hoped to see the price given by the other party first.
"How does the city lord know it's not me who wants to save him?"
"Because you can't afford it."
"This is not necessarily true. What if I have treasures brought from the Sand Temple?" Ryder said.
Pius's eyes narrowed and his brows furrowed slightly: "The most valuable treasures in the Sand Temple have been taken away by Saint Isla. What good things can you get?"
Ryder said: "There are many floors up and down the Sand Temple, and there are unexpected things on every floor. The seventh floor is a much wider space, with a large number of treasures. No matter how greedy Saint Isla is, he can't take away everything."
"Do you really have something that pleases me?"
Ryder opened a travel bag on his back and took out a square box 73 cm long, 42 cm wide and 36 cm high.
"Are you carrying this precious treasure on your back casually like this?"
"The value of something has nothing to do with how I carry it." Ryder walked forward holding the box: "This is the only treasure I took away from the Sand Temple. I don't know the value of the things inside, but
I think the respected Lord of Barren Rock City will definitely understand."
Pios took the box, not quite believing that it could contain anything good, until he opened this inconspicuous magic box, his pupils gradually dilated: "This is..."
I saw that the box was full of magic spells, and after it was opened, it sparked a purple light. On the bed of the box, several dry and thin things like dry wood roots were beating continuously, just like a newly severed gecko tail, or something
It keeps bouncing like a dying frog.
Ryder said: "If I look carefully, this is not a dried root, but the tendrils of a monster..."
"It's the tentacles of the Kraken. Yes, I smell the fishy smell of the sea." Pius's eyes lit up, staring at the treasure in the box like looking at a beautiful lover. Each of these tentacles was tied
The metal band imprisoned it, but even so, it could not restrain its vitality.
"The city lord really recognizes this treasure, and its value should be very clear." Ryder said: "I will present the treasure first. Is the city lord willing to heal him?"
Pios said: "Give me the things now. Aren't you worried that Huangyan City will take the things and not save people?"
Ryder said: "The credibility of the Lord of Barren Rock City is as trustworthy as his medical skills. I believe that Barren Rock City, which has been standing for many years, will not do anything that breaks its promise."
"Oh, you have such insight at such a young age, it seems that I looked down on you a little before." Pios said: "I have collected the things. I think you have something to do, so you can leave."
As expected, Ryder didn't ask any more questions and turned around to leave. Pios opened the treasure box again and looked at the beating things in the box: "This thing gives me another way to study the medical skills of immortality."
Hillary came in from the door, looked at the man in the coffin, and asked: "City Lord, how do you want to cure his illness?"
Pios said: "All curses can be solved with the same magic or other magic. Shadow magic is rare in the world. There is too little understanding of it, and there will be a lot of trouble in solving it. Therefore, it is necessary to use medicine and
Physical therapy is the main method.”
"The city lord has a plan?"
"The specific plan still needs to be studied, but there is one thing that needs to be prepared first." Pios said: "Hillary, please lead a team to catch some shadow beasts and ghost fish in the field, and you also need some exorcism stones. Find them again.
Before we come up with a good treatment plan, we must first sew up his shadow."
"Then I will lead the Sanguine team."
"Um."
Hillary turned and left.
…
Although there was no large-scale war taking place in the territory of the Holy and Demonic Kingdoms at this time, the tranquility before the madness of the mountains and seas gave the army a sense of urgency. Various intelligence information was constantly gathered and disseminated, and Fried controlled the pseudo-dragons to spread the plague in large numbers and drive away the plague.
Local villagers fled south, causing the epidemic to spread rapidly to the south.
In the south, Hindmore, the drizzle wetted the black raincoat. A man wearing a mask came to a remote small villa. He rang the doorbell, and then banged the door and windows. In the room, a pair of lovers were having an affair.
The man and woman listened in surprise to the sound of knocking on the door.
"Is your husband here?"
The woman shook her head: "Impossible, he is very busy."
"Go and have a look."
The woman was very reluctant, but she still got dressed and went downstairs. Through the peephole, she saw the man wearing a copper-colored metal mask outside the door. Her heart skipped a beat. She ran back upstairs and asked the man who was having an affair to leave from the tunnel.
Then she applied lipstick before slowly going downstairs.
The door opened, and the masked person smiled slightly: "Long time no see, Mrs. Beth."
Grancher Beth said unceremoniously: "Duane, do you still dare to come to Hindmore? If Zalberg's men catch you, they will chop you into pieces and feed you to the dogs."
Du An took off his copper mask: "Madam, won't you invite me to come in and sit down? The door is not a place for chatting."
Beth glanced inside the room and let him in.
Duane took off his raincoat, hung it on the clothes rack, and found a sofa to sit down casually. Beth sat on the single sofa next to him, lit a cigarette, blew out the cigarette and asked, "What are you doing here?"
"What else can I do here?" Duan stared at her.
"Are you Freed...are you the one who created the army?"
Duan smiled and asked: "You can't think of it?"
"I should have thought of that."
"So what information can you provide me with?"
Beth said with a cold face: "You want me to commit treason?"
Du An smiled and said: "You betrayed the country, not the family. Panota is now a senior official with real power. You can get a lot of information from him. The military situation is so tense now. Can you reveal some information about the military?
Any news?"
"He is the Minister of State, not the Minister of Defence."
"The Secretary of Defense also knows a lot."
"You are asking me to die!"
Du An said: "I don't force you to work for me now, but you can see the power of the royal army. For the continuation of your family's glory, you should consider another retreat for your family. Otherwise, no one will care about you when the army goes south.
The former status of the Grancher family. Beth, my good friend, you also have to think about yourself, after all, what belongs to others is not yours."
