Chapter 40 The call of the ancient gods (3)

Griffith tried his best to imagine what Pepperanchi saw, but no matter what, he could not imagine how big the ancient god was and what a magnificent scene it was.

"What shocked me even more was what came next. Suddenly, hehehe, guess what? The ancient god actually sent out a beam of light, which shone directly on the female elf."

"Glow? You mean, like the prayer of the Holy Light." In Griffith's superficial knowledge, the radiance of the gods should be the solemn and sacred radiance in the Cathedral of the Holy Light.

"Hey, kid, this is such a rude metaphor. You even compare the miracle created by the ancient gods with the light of fireflies. Let me tell you, that kind of light is hotter than magma and dazzling than the sun.

It’s not something that living things can create. In addition, hey, haha, through that light, I also saw another sight that I will never forget.”

Griffith swallowed. He had heard enough anecdotes since coming here, and he had long wanted to go back.

However, every time Pepperanchi gave up, Griffith had no doubt that what he heard next would be something even more shocking.

"Then what?"

Pepperanchi looked even more excited and began to walk around the room, muttering to himself:

"I saw it. They were transparent containers, like cocoons. Elves, trolls and other creatures whose faces couldn't be seen were trapped inside. They were trapped in transparent containers like cocoons, hanging densely in the air.

Heaven.

"Suddenly, a flame ignited in the cocoon, a flame that rippled like a pool of water! You must have read Aligues's "Divine Comedy", which describes the scene of purgatory, the kind of flame that does not exist in the world and devours everything.

The creatures in the cocoon were struggling, twisting, and wailing. I can guarantee that there is no word other than 'purgatory' that can better describe that scene. I heard the painful groans one after another. I saw their

The body turned into smoke."

Griffith stammered and asked: "Are they dead?"

"No, no, they have become illusory and transparent, like reflections in the water that have not yet dissipated, still groaning in the flames. They have been upgraded!

"I remember the expression of that female elf in the cocoon. It's a bit obscene to say, hehe, I'm a little envious of them."

Crazy, this man must be crazy. When describing such a tragic situation, he can still say such joking words. Will this madman do anything detrimental to me? Griffith shuddered, even if

He had never experienced this kind of strange and chaotic fear when facing Behemoth.

"What happened next?"

"Later, ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooaaaaaa (Awawa!

He cried sometimes and laughed: "The ancient gods took away the elves and left."

"What does this mean? The ancient gods only took away the elves and ignored you?"

"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah. You're right, you are right! The ancient gods didn't even notice me. They have no interest in humans at all!"

Pepperanchi cried even louder, as if a child was born without a pacifier.

"Then...then you..."

"Of course I won't give in. I don't care about anything, life or death. I used up all my strength in my life and ran forward desperately. With great difficulty, I finally climbed onto the ancient god's tentacles.

Although I don’t know if it’s right or not, let’s call the part of the ancient god that hangs down to the ground the tentacles as we know them. I finally came into contact with the ancient god! What makes me even more excited is that the ancient god finally noticed me.

, He stopped. I was both excited and scared, not knowing what I would encounter next. Suddenly, a huge wall pressed against me, maybe it was a transparent wall. I don’t know. I fell from the ancient god,

Lost consciousness."

"When I woke up, it was already the next day. Some of my fingers and left leg disappeared. The wound was smooth, without any burns or deformation, just like the anatomy diagram in the laboratory. But this broken

My body also reminded me that everything that happened yesterday was real and not a dream."

"I endured the pain and walked to the city, eager to tell everyone about my wonderful experience. But, boo hoo, when I returned to the city-state, I found that it had been destroyed. The entire city-state was covered in a yellow

The viscous liquid submerged, the consuls, senators, soldiers... everyone was dead. Their corpses were turning into yellow liquid, and their gradually disintegrating faces were soaked in the yellow liquid, filled with fear, pain and distortion,

I must have suffered a lot of torture before I died, hehehe. This is the reason why the city-state of Anok disappeared. I have no doubt that it was my rude behavior that angered the ancient gods and led to the city-state's demise.

Therefore, I stayed away from my hometown and settled here, which can be regarded as my atonement."

Pepperanchi seems to have a clear conscience.

Hearing this, Griffith breathed a sigh of relief.

"But, hey, don't think that I just give up. After that, until now, I have never stopped exploring the ancient gods. The more I understand about the ancient gods, the more fascinated I become. Take a look.

Well, everything in this laboratory is the result of my research, which one is not a miracle? Your Excellency Salorian cannot deny me!"

Pepperanchi suddenly rushed over, grabbed Griffith's shoulders, shook him wildly, and shouted:

"They all thought I was crazy! But I tell you, I'm not crazy. I'm close to the ultimate wisdom of this world. Believe me, believe me! The ancient gods will come back sooner or later. At that time, all living creatures will be sacrificed for ascension.

Cheers, we will receive supreme glory! We will usher in a glorious evolution!

"We're going beyond human skin, Griffith!"

Pepperanchi breathed heavily, and saliva drooled from the corners of his mouth. He looked directly at Griffith, his eyes full of madness.

The trainee knight didn't even say goodbye. He turned around and ran away in horror. He didn't know how he passed through the deep laboratory and corridor. When he reacted, he had already returned to his room.

I want to change a topic! I swear that I will never think about anything related to the ancient gods again. Otherwise, one day, I will become a lunatic like Pepperanchi. I can no longer discuss the topic of "ancient gods".

Somewhat related.

Griffith rubbed his face vigorously by the pool and repeated to himself in panic. He didn't even notice that his nails scratched his skin and left bloody traces.



After becoming an experimental assistant in the alchemy course, Griffith had many more opportunities to come into contact with magical materials.

Most of the work in the laboratory is to prepare, separate and prepare materials for the college's advanced potion experiments, as well as to raise and select magical creatures for experiments.

This work takes two hours each time, three times a week.

"Be careful with the slime from the slime monster. It's hard to wash if it sticks to your hands," Velonos warned in a low voice. "In addition, ranger Kroger has hired a group of employees. You don't have to come for the next week."

Laboratory, go to him and learn to collect some materials from the edge of the Whispering Forest, thorn tentacles, living root grass, tree frogs and twisting vines, as well as living Bowtruckles, the list is here, just say I want it."

Griffith nodded, carefully collected the slippery slime of the ooze monster, and carefully sealed it in a flask. This material was the leftovers of a failed experiment, and it was a material that no one paid attention to, but this

This material is actually the main material of the deceleration potion recorded in the "Magic Potion Preparation Notes" obtained from the resident mage Rudias.

Taking advantage of the opportunity that Associate Professor Velonos had no time to pay attention to, Griffith mixed this mucus with black humus soil, crystal shell hard shells and other materials in a certain proportion.

These unsightly materials come together and mix into a green mass.

"After preliminary blending, the adhesive properties of the ooze monster have been strengthened with the help of auxiliary materials..." Griffith looked through the notes and added several other bloods of magical creatures as a catalyst with great interest.

"The potion obtained through this method has 80% of the effect of conventional deceleration potions. Although the materials are scarce, the price is not high. The total cost is less than 20% of the shelf products, and it is more durable," "Magic Potion Preparation Notes" says in this paragraph

There is still a thought in the words, "If it weren't for the fact that the formula materials are difficult to obtain and are only suitable for laboratory preparation, I will definitely mass-produce this deceleration agent!"

This is exactly what I want... Griffith nodded secretly in his heart. On the Eastern battlefield, Shutorals like to use various magic potions to assist in combat. However, due to the high cost of production, transportation and storage,

It's scary, only a few elites can distribute them in small quantities when performing special tasks.

The deceleration agent obtained from the scraps in the laboratory was put into a small crystal bottle, which was usually kept in Griffith's personal bag. During private testing, Griffith believed that this agent could cover the entire area.

The creature is slowed to one-third of its normal speed for up to 15 seconds.

It is simple to make, low cost and has obvious effects. This medicine has only one drawback: the slowdown effect does not distinguish between friend and foe!

In addition to the slowing potion, Griffith prepared some secondary healing potions and auxiliary materials based on his notes. After finishing today's work and private work, he packed up the mixing table and prepared to leave. When he turned around the shelves, he found Willow

North was sitting on a chair doing nothing, looking at the moon outside the window.

He looked at the moon and smiled. Just like a child, he looked up at the sky upright, with a simple and beautiful smile on his face.

Griffith didn't know what good things happened to Velonos, but such a happy time certainly shouldn't be disturbed. He quietly exited the laboratory and closed the door.
