Lester wrote in his notes: "There is nothing wrong with my assumption and there is no problem."
"It can definitely be achieved."
"But this requires extraordinary power. I don't have the bloodline of wisdom and power. How can I obtain extraordinary power?"
Lester immediately looked at the blood-sucking worm being raised in the laboratory.
The magical knowledge in his head immediately provided him with a direction.
and.
And it provides him with the plan and strength to implement this idea.
The "God of Knowledge" seemed to have given him not only knowledge, but also something else, making him seem to be completely different.
how to say?
Like a genius.
Crazy genius.
Lester looked at the vampire with burning eyes, then lowered his head and continued writing in his notes.
"I can sign a spiritual contract with the vampire insect, and then I can use its power."
"It is an extraordinary life and can conclude a contract with the spiritual world."
He began to use the knowledge he gained from the "God of Knowledge" to design the spiritual contract he would sign with the blood-sucking worms.
The knowledge given to him by the "God of Knowledge" is very powerful and accurate. Ordinary spiritual priests may know how to draw spiritual contracts, but most of them just follow the patterns left by their predecessors.
But what the other party gave Lester was to tell him the function of every stroke and every pattern in the spiritual contract.
This is the most orthodox priestly tradition.
Originated from the inheritance of the first generation of truth sage Sandian.
In the laboratory, Lester once again drew a spiritual contract.
In use.
At the same time, Lester was constantly digesting the knowledge in his mind.
The vampire had no name, so Lester took a piece of its skin and placed it on the spiritual contract.
And he himself dropped a drop of blood on it and wrote his name in blood.
It was originally just an ordinary pattern, but after it was successfully painted, it immediately showed extraordinary power, and the power from another world was instilled in it.
Above the ritual formation, the shadow of a golden divine cup appeared.
It's blurry, but it shines like the sun.
Lester stood in front of the formation and sang loudly.
"I'm Lester."
"I am willing to share part of my life with you and conclude a symbiotic contract with you."
Contracts appeared on the body of the blood-sucking demonic insect, which immediately disappeared after emerging from the surface of the body.
But here we are, not done yet.
"Gulu."
He was so cruel that he directly swallowed the blood-sucking worm into his stomach and started a symbiosis with him.
The blood-sucking worm pierced his heart, then coiled around it, beating with his heart rate.
And at the same time, he suddenly felt something had a strong attraction to him.
He looked over and saw that it was a blood-red stone the size of a fingernail.
"The Blood Stone of Life."
He felt that the Life Blood Stone was resonating with him, because the blood-sucking worm and its power originated from the same bloodline.
That is the life power of the mother of life, Sally, the king of the Luch trolls.
Lester is not a powerful person, he is just an ordinary person, but he has a powerful power at this moment.
Lester held out his hand.
His hand suddenly softened like noodles and turned into a blood-red paste.
He stretched out his hand, and his hand suddenly turned into blood-red tentacles.
Take it back.
It's still an ordinary pair of hands.
This feeling is really wonderful.
He is not a powerful person, he is still just an ordinary person, but now he has gained part of the power of a powerful person through symbiosis with blood-sucking worms.
"Witch doctor?"
"This is the power of witch doctors. I finally have their power!"
Lester was stunned at the sight of this power.
For more than ten years, he has been pursuing the power of the witch doctor.
finally.
He finally got it.
Although it's just a weakened version of the Witch Doctor's power, Lester hasn't even figured out how to use it yet.
But using this power, he can feel the intestinal worms that have reproduced in his wife's body and kill them and take them out, without having to worry about harming his wife again through his surgery.
At least.
There is no problem in keeping his wife alive for the time being.
Lester was so excited that he ran out of the laboratory and came home.
On the operating table.
His hand touched his wife's abdomen, and a stream of blood-like needles spread out.
It penetrated along the gap in the bone armor, and the wife immediately fell asleep.
When the wife woke up, the pain that penetrated into the bone marrow had disappeared.
When the wife opened her eyes, she saw Lester's ecstatic face.
"Your illness is cured."
My wife also laughed together: "Really?"
She also suddenly discovered that the feeling that tortured her so much that she could not sleep and was worse than dead had dissipated.
Lester nodded: "However, your body is too weak."
"You've been sick for too long, and these nasty bugs have been damaging your body."
"Wait a minute, wait a minute."
"My universal elixir is about to be completed. By then I will definitely give you a completely healthy body, a body that can return to youth."
Although my wife is weak, she looks much energetic.
"A panacea?"
"Isn't that a ridiculous legend?"
Lester's eyes were full of confidence: "In my hands, it will become a reality."
His wife's improvement gave Lester a huge motivation.
Lester began to conduct the next experiment again, so that the so-called healthiest and perfect form of the three-leaf man could be recorded on the life blood stone.
He immediately looked for the corresponding method in the memory he received from the "God of Knowledge".
"Memory model magic."
Leicester immediately found a way.
Derived from the spiritual activation technique, a magical technique that can characterize an information model based on extraordinary power is not powerful.
It is not uncommon for many workshops to use this method to mass-produce miraculous creations.
But Lester immediately applied this method to his own experiments.
He drew the blood of many Trileaf people, and input information about various healthy internal organs, organs, and skin into the Stone of Life.
"The more information we collect, the more accurate it will be, and the better we can adjust a person's body to its optimal state based on his or her physical condition."
at last.
The life blood stone gradually changed its appearance, and two figures embracing each other appeared.
One male and one female respectively.
It's like a delicate carving, a small work of art.
When it was finished, Lester was neither happy nor excited.
But the whole person was lost.
He held the "universal elixir" as if he were looking at the most exquisite work of art, a perfect creation that he spent his whole life carving.
"This is it."
"This is it."
"It's perfect, it's really perfect."
This is according to Lester's idea, it can restore every Sanye person to the healthiest state in an instant, and can cure all diseases in the world.
That is.
Panacea.
On the bed, Lester and his wife looked at each other.
Lester looked a little uneasy. Although he had created a panacea, he still had confidence in his years of hard work.
However, this is the first time it has been actually used on a living person.
Lester: "Are you ready?"
The wife saw the uneasiness in Lester's eyes: "I believe you."
Lester took a deep breath and finally calmed down.
He held the "universal elixir" in his hand and held his wife's hand in one hand.
A blood-red power spread from Lester's body toward his wife.
Finally, a drop of red liquid emerged from the void.
The liquid created ripples and dripped into Lester's wife's body.
"Hmph~"
Lester's wife snorted, and a powerful force acted directly on her body.
Her depleted internal organs, her weakening body, and her cloudy eyes.
It is currently being repaired.
even.
Lester felt that his wife seemed much younger for an instant.
As the red light dissipated, the wife who could only lie on the bed stood up little by little, holding on to the edge of the bed.
She exercised a few times and found that she was completely healed.
The wife looked at herself in shock, and then looked at her husband Lester.
"What exactly is going on?"
"Is it really awesome?"
Lester hugged his wife and leaned happily on her shoulders.
He has been in panic these days, he cannot feel the moment of losing her.
"This is the universal elixir I made for you."
His wife patted him on the shoulder: "I have always believed in you and can do what you want to do.
He took his wife out of the house.
The people outside immediately burst into cheers after seeing Lester.
"Mr. Leicester has come out."
"His wife is well too, and Mrs. Leicester is well."
Hundreds of people gathered around, everyone looked at Lester with admiration and admiration, and some even knelt on the ground to express their gratitude to Lester.
"Holy hands."
"Holy hands."
After this plague, Leicester's reputation reached its peak.
A statue was actually erected in his honor, like the one the city of Anjo once had for the saint Stan Tito.
On the base under the statue, Leicester's name and deeds are carved.
Surrounded by a group of nobles, Leicester spoke his speech in front of the statue, and then thanked everyone.
"thank you all."
"thank you all."
The name of the Holy Hand spread throughout Xiinsai. ——
Medical Clinic in Leicester.
A child who was also weak and about to die after being infected by the plague came to seek medical treatment. The mother hugged her child and kept begging Lester.
"Please save my child."
The doctor at the hospital said to the mother: "There is absolutely nothing we can do about this situation. Rather than letting the child go to the hospital and suffer so much, it is better to spend his last days at home with his relatives."
But his mother was still very unwilling, and he looked at Lester.
"Holy hands."
"You are the most powerful doctor, you must have a solution, right?"
Lester looked at the child's face in pain and felt extremely uncomfortable.
He thought again of the "universal elixir" he had made.
I thought: "Since I used it once, why can't I use it a second time?"
Lester said to his apprentice: "Bring her in."
The apprentice looked at Lester in surprise: "Mr. Lester, this..."
In his opinion, this man was completely hopeless.
Even if you force him to stay, it will only add to the pain.
However, Lester's "medical skills" far exceeded his imagination.
In just a few days, he has transformed from an ordinary person into a being who possesses the power of the "universal elixir".
For the first time, Lester showed his power even more miraculous than that of the witch doctor in front of others.
He activated the power of the "universal elixir" with one hand, and held the child's hand with the other.
In a matter of seconds, he revived a patient who was previously thought to be dead. As soon as he stepped out of the hospital bed, he looked exactly like any other healthy child.
"miracle!"
"This is a miracle!"
The other patients who saw this scene shouted in shock.
This is no longer a medical skill, this is a miracle.
"When did Mr. Leicester become so powerful?" The apprentices at the medical clinic looked at Lester and were all dumbfounded.
"This must be the power of the witch doctor, the power of the legendary witch doctor." The older doctor immediately remembered the legend about the witch doctor.
It also starts from this moment.
No one died in Leicester's clinic, and the title of the Holy Hand became truly worthy of its name.
Everyone says it.
Lester learns the power of the witch doctor.
Others say that Lester has mastered the method of rejuvenating people, because the people he treated not only recovered physically, but even became healthier than before.
This also caused many nobles to run to Lester and ask Lester to treat them.
Leicester refused with nonsense.
sunny.
Lester bowed his head on the desk, holding a pen in one hand.
He looked at the scroll and hesitated before putting pen to paper.
"The great witch doctor, my teacher Lord Left Hand."
"Please forgive me for telling you now, a few years ago..."
Lester wrote to the Witch Doctor's House, telling his teacher that he had stolen the Life Blood Stone, and asked the teacher how to make the Life Blood Stone.
he.
Want to create more panacea.
He wants to make doctors another profession that wields extraordinary power.
He asked people from the business group to deliver the letter and then returned home.
"it's dark."
"Why do we even light the lights?"
However, as soon as he opened the door, Lester saw his wife lying motionless on the ground.
He immediately rushed forward and helped his wife anxiously.
It turned out that my wife seemed to be just asleep and there was no other problem.
"Hello!"
"What's wrong?"
Lester patted his wife's face, and she slowly opened her eyes and woke up.
However, when he woke up, the first words he said made Leicester feel cold.
"Who are you?"
"I..." Lester choked on his words.
"I am your husband, Lester!"
It took his wife a long time to recognize him and nodded.
"oh!"
"It's Lester!"
At first, Lester thought it was just because there were too many patients in the clinic these days and his wife was too busy and overtired.
But then this situation began to appear one after another, becoming more and more serious each time.
The wife kept forgetting the memories of the past, and began to forget her relatives and friends.
She even forgot where her home was.
She couldn't even leave the house at first, let alone work as Lester's assistant.
At the end.
The wife lay completely on the bed and could not move.
Lester stayed by the bedside, constantly calling his wife's name.
"Hello!"
"Wake up!"
"Wake up!"
He called his wife's name, but there was no movement at all.
This time.
The "universal elixir" he had high hopes for could not save his wife at all, because this time the problem no longer appeared on the physical level, but seemed to appear on another level.
He could only watch his wife turn into an immortal person.
He refused all guests to take care of his wife, and even abandoned all matters in the medical clinic. Even apprentices and doctors came to him and were turned away by him.
He has been flipping through books in the laboratory, looking for problems with his wife's body.
Or.
I'm looking for what went wrong with my panacea.
However, until the end, he could not find the problem.
In the beginning, my wife was awake for only half a day.
But even if she wakes up, she doesn't remember who Lester is.
It waved its hands toward the sky like a baby, making a sound like babbling.
"Yeah!" The wife turned her head and shouted towards Lester.
His eyes were full of strangeness, as if he was asking who he was.
but.
But he could no longer express any words of inquiry.
"Yeah!" Lester didn't know how to respond, so he just kept nodding.
He touched his wife's face, tears constantly flowing from his eyes.
My wife's condition is getting worse and worse day by day, and it is irreversible.
Until the last moment of her life, the wife suddenly woke up from the state of the living dead like a flashback.
She was lying on the bed, and her empty pupils suddenly became bright.
But she seemed to be unable to see anything and kept groping around the bed with her hands.
"Lester!"
"Lester."
Lester was looking at the pile of books in front of the window, and immediately turned around when he heard the voice.
He threw himself on the bed excitedly, held his wife's hand and looked at him.
"I'm here."
"I'm here."
He was so excited that his whole body was shaking and he kept talking.
"You finally woke up, you finally woke up."
"do you know?"
"I have always...I have always been...waiting for you..."
Lester was choked up and speechless.
However, his wife just looked at him sadly.
He opened his mouth and said: "Is what you made... really a panacea?"
Lester was directly hit by this sentence, as if a thunderbolt struck his soul.
this problem.
This is exactly what he has been doubting these days.
After the wife said this, she fell asleep again, and her empty eyes completely lost their luster.
Then.
Never woke up again.
Two days later, Lester's wife died.
Looking at his wife's cold body, Lester sat on the ground in despair.
"how so?"
"What went wrong?"
He stumbled out of the house and wandered the streets like a zombie. Many people on the streets pointed at him.
Lester has not left home these days, and he has focused all his attention on his wife.
He doesn't know yet.
My wife is not the first person to suffer from such symptoms, let alone the first person to die.
There are already rumors everywhere in Cross City, and everyone is secretly talking about Lester's evil experiments and the rumors about the living dead.
All the critically ill patients treated by Leicester began to develop problems little by little after a few months.
They gradually forgot their past, and then turned into a mindless living dead. Finally, they were unable to eat or move.
Die slowly.
This has to make people wonder what Leicester did.
Gradually, there were rumors in the city that Lester was conducting experiments on patients.
Especially since he has been missing recently, this suspicion has only increased.
Lester walked to the street in a daze, and suddenly he met a person.
A person who is like a zombie like him, and a mother who is heartbroken.
A mother is holding a child and wandering on the street.
The moment the mother saw him, she pushed through the crowd like crazy and rushed forward.
As soon as she came up, she blocked Lester's way and asked him repeatedly.
"Did you do it?"
"Did you do it?"
Lester didn't understand anything at first. He looked at the mother blankly and recognized that this was the mother of the little girl he had saved for the second time with the universal elixir.
Then he lowered his head and saw the child.
No.
It was the body of a child.
It was obvious that the other man was as dead as his wife.
Died in his mother's arms.
Mother grabbed Lester's clothes tightly, and finally knelt on the ground crying and wailing.
"tell me."
"you tell me."
"My child, my child...why did he die?"
"Before she died, she said..."
"She said she couldn't see the light. She said why no ship came to pick her up."
"She...was abandoned by God!"
The mother roared in despair.
"What did you do? What did you do to my child?"
Leicester was completely devastated.
He stood in the middle of the street, shouting with streaming eyes.
"sorry."
"sorry."
"I don't want this, and I don't want this either."
Lester shouted out the pain he had been holding back these days, his voice full of self-doubt and despair.
"I used power I shouldn't have used, and I overestimated myself."
"I thought the experiment was successful."
"I thought I succeeded."
The crowd was in an uproar, and everyone looked at Lester in disbelief.
"No way!"
"Mr. Lester, he..."
"It turns out he was really conducting experiments."
"He's experimenting on patients?"
"I'm just asking, how come he suddenly has such a powerful power? He can actually resurrect people from the brink of death and even return them to youth."
Overnight, Lester fell from the clouds.
He became a street rat that everyone shouted to beat, and even more victims were coming towards him.
Lester was in agony.
He returned to his home amidst the accusations of thousands of people.
He opened the door and saw his wife's body lying on the bed.
He fell to the ground and kept retreating in fear.
"That's not true."
"This is not true, this is all fake."
Lester knelt on the ground and covered his face in tears.
However, no matter how much you deceive yourself and others, you cannot deceive the world, let alone change reality.
His wife died, and the patients he saved became the living dead.
even.
There was no ship to pick them up when they died, and they had no way to return to the sky of God's kingdom.
At this time, he thought of someone again.
wrong.
That is a being who claims to be a god.
He opened the door to the laboratory and went straight to the basement without even closing the door.
He scrawled a spiritual contract ritual formation on the ground, and finally drew the names of the supplicant and the prayed on it.
"call!"
An unknown breeze blew, and the ritual array was lit up.
"quick!"
"Quick!"
"faster."
The activation speed of this ritual is very fast, but Lester feels that it takes so long.
He was so eager to see each other that he couldn't wait any longer.
The weightlessness of falling from the sky came, and he came to an illusory realm again.
Lester stood in this empty world. He turned around and saw the huge door.
There is also the figure on the giant door, the so-called God of Knowledge.
The "god" lowered his gaze and looked at the tiny, ant-like existence under the huge door.
"Witch Doctor Apprentice Lester."
"Why are you back again?"
Lester couldn't care less about what was wrong, he excitedly stepped forward to tell the other party.
"you tell me."
"Why did I fail? You said you gave me enough knowledge, but I still failed."
"I can't find the reason at all."
The figure on the door calmly told him: "I told you, there is never any panacea."
"What I give you is the knowledge and power you want."
"As for why it failed?"
"Then you have to ask yourself."
"Why did you think that you would be able to succeed from the beginning?"
The figure on the door lowered his head and looked at him calmly.
"mortal."
"You are the one who is arrogant!"
Lester was at a loss as to what to do.
"please!"
"please."
"Tell me, what exactly should I do?"
As if grasping a life-saving straw, he begged the "god" on the door.
"If you are really a god, please give me, this insignificant mortal, guidance!"
The figure put his chin with his hand and looked at Lester boredly.
He didn't feel any sadness, pain or despair at all. He just felt that the mortal in front of him was quite interesting, just like a clown on the stage, twisting and swaying his body under the teasing of fate.
This is something that a rational and crazy being like him cannot understand and feel.
"So."
"Mortal, what else do you want?"
"As a god, I may be able to give you a little help.
An idea finally came to Lester's mind. He no longer wanted to create some panacea, he just wanted to save his wife now.
"I want to resurrect my wife's knowledge."
The figure nodded and said in an extremely relaxed tone.
"This is not a difficult task for the great gods."
"But as a god, he also has his own rules that he must abide by."
The light figure looked at Lester: "And I..."
"He is such a fair and code-abiding god."
"I adhere to the law of equivalent exchange. Anyone who wants to get something from me must pay a price."
Lester shouted towards the giant door: "Any price is acceptable, I just want my wife."
The figure on the door asked him: "Is it really possible to do anything?"
Tears flowed from Lester's eyes: "Really anything is possible, merciful God!"
"As long as I have it, I will give it to you."
The majesty on the figure's face was almost unbearable, and the corners of his mouth opened in a crazy arc.
"very good."
"very good."
"Then I will teach you how to resurrect the dead."
The figure stood up and opened his arms.
"A benevolent god."
"Grace will be given to mortals again."
The giant door opened, and Lester was flooded with endless light.
Lester looked at the door that opened slightly, and the light from behind the door shone on his face.
Infinite hope bloomed in his pupils.
"ah!"
"I don't want any panacea, I just want... I just want my wife."
He gave up his great ideals and chose another existence.
Behind that door.
It was what he thought was the answer to redeem himself.
"Boom."
The door slammed shut, but the figure on the door couldn't bear it any longer.
He laughed wildly, leaning forward and backward with laughter.
The majestic and benevolent image he had just now no longer existed.
"O merciful God."
"Hahahahaha."
He grinned and said in a tone full of madness: "I not only want to give you the chance to live again, but I also want to give you the gift of eternal life."
"How about it?"
"What god can be more generous than me, can be more generous than me?"
However, he suddenly fell into deep thought again and became suspicious of Lester's panacea.
"What the hell is this?"
"A panacea?"
"This thing has some magical power. How can it do such a thing?"
"I've never seen it before."
The little man in the bottle immediately remembered something. The memory inherited from Anhofors reminded him of the scene where he had met the witch doctor.
"wrong."
"Isn't this... the power of the witch doctors to live forever?" ——
Cross City.
South of the city.
The sleeping painter suddenly stood up, as if he was inspired by something.
He hurriedly opened the door and came to the studio.
In the dark night, the figures in the studio are hanging on the wall, leaning against the wall, as if countless eyes are watching them.
It looks a bit eerie.
He opened the pile of paintings in the studio, hurriedly and impatiently, overturning his own works to the ground like garbage.
at last.
His eyes were fixed, staring at a cloth painting with a giant door hidden in the corner like a pilgrim.
The painter knelt on the ground and kowtowed devoutly to the painting.
"O great god of knowledge!"
"You finally responded to me.
The so-called "god of knowledge" conveyed oracles to his followers.
