Chapter 689 Infection intensifies
Two days of dull and tense days have passed, and the guild’s response has not yet come.
This is normal. Even at the speed of a peregrine falcon, I am afraid that I have just arrived in East Doruma with the letter. It will take another four or five days to wait for the guild's senior management to organize forces, arrange supplies, and provide support. The most optimistic scenario is four to five days. It takes up to a week to reach the village of Sinard.
However, the hunters, or to be precise, Hayata, received another good news - the little alchemist of Maka Alchemy House succeeded.
The hunters who were idle in the village rushed to the alchemy house excitedly to see what good things the little fat man had made.
The little alchemist with the big frog on his head stood at the door of the alchemy house with his arms folded, looking like he was waiting for praise.
After Gordon, Feng Ying, and Anxier surrounded him, he was about to brag, but suddenly he was stunned, "Yeah? Where is the sister? This is her protective stone. You guys What are you doing so close?”
“I’m here”
Hayata’s voice came from behind Gordon and the others. She has been in a bad mood and low spirits these days. So they didn't squeeze in like Gordon and the others did.
Feng Ying, who seemed to have forgotten that she was infected with the dragon disease, pulled Hayat into the "encirclement" with a smile, and asked the little fat man at the same time, "So where are my two protective stones? What can I make? Coming?”
The little alchemist spread his hands and said matter-of-factly: "There's nothing, just knight level and fortress level, they've been refined into slag."
"What are you talking about, pig?!" Feng Ying raised her eyebrows. He stood up and grabbed the little alchemist's cheeks with both hands.
Gordon and others all looked at Feng Ying.
Before the little alchemist had time to shout, Feng Ying smiled and let go of her hand, "I'm not sick, I just feel, well, I feel a little uncomfortable!"
"Gamble This is what a stone guard looks like!”
The little fat man muttered, he pointed at Hayata and said to Feng Ying: "This sister made seven protective stones, but only two succeeded, and the others exploded.
Those two stones were successful. There is also one that is still at the knight level, just upgraded to the fortress level. The weak [Ice Attribute Resistance] protection is not very interesting.
In the end, there is only one that is really successful."
"The king-level one?" Gordon laughed. He asked, but his tone was already quite certain.
“Yes!” The little alchemist proudly held up his chest and akimbo, “The quality has been upgraded to the level of Dragon Guard Stone. This is our most proud work in the past year or two!
By the way, how do you know that the King-level one was successful? "
Gordon smiled and said casually: "With Hayata's luck, this is not even a regular performance. It cost so many high-quality monster materials and a piece of mad dragon crystal. This price Not too small.
So where is the protective stone? Come out and let us see it. "
" At this price, you have made a lot of money for a dragon protection stone of this quality, right? Besides, aren't there two other protection stones that have been given to you first? "The little fat man said dissatisfied.
He was very dissatisfied with Gordon's statement that everything was attributed to "luck".
He obviously said it because of his superb skills!
“Thank you for your hard work, Master.”
Hayata saw the dissatisfaction of the little fat man, smiled and praised him, and then the little fat man jumped back to the alchemy room. , holding out the shining protective stone placed in the brocade box.
The shape of this protective stone is a little strange. Most protective stones are round or oval, but this protective stone is curved. According to Feng Ying, it looks like a banana. .
“But why is it in this shape?” Ancil asked curiously.
The little alchemist proudly crossed his arms again, "Humph! This is my master's technique! I used ancient alchemy to adjust the arrangement of energy, combining the part containing [avoidance distance] protection with [ [Qi Jue] The part with negative effects was separated, and then the part containing the negative effects was knocked out, thereby eliminating the shortcomings of this protective stone that easily make the user [Qi Jue] "
"Also! Is this possible?" An Xier was surprised.
"Other alchemists can't, but this master can, hahahaha!"
Looking at the arrogant and laughing little fat man, Feng Ying couldn't help but have the urge to hit him hard. Impulsively, as soon as she clenched her fists, she found Gordon looking over, which scared her so much that she quickly calmed down.
She couldn't tell whether it was because of the dragon disease or simply because she felt that the little fat man deserved a beating.
The little fat man continued to introduce: "And oh, there are two inlay holes on this protective stone, which can be used to inlay decorative beads."
"Originally, the strength of the [avoidance distance] protection is already very good, but after all, It’s a bit monotonous, but you can adjust the effect of this protective stone by inlaying different decorative beads!” Obviously, the little alchemist is very satisfied with his work.
Even Gordon and Ancil are quite envious of this. Their protective stones, especially Gordon's heroic protective stone, are of a higher level than Hayata's, but they are only A mosaic hole.
Listening to the little alchemist, using ancient alchemy, it is also possible for his hero-level protective stone to go further, but considering the failure rate of at least 70% to 80%.
Gordon thinks it's fine now.
After getting the new protective stone, Hayata did not wear it immediately, but put it away.
[Avoidance distance] This kind of protection that affects the effect of movements takes time to adapt to. If you wear it directly to participate in actual combat, you may even have extremely serious consequences due to misjudgment of distance.
Fortunately, there aren't many things going on these days, so she has plenty of time to adapt.
After leaving the alchemy house, they went to the doctor again to visit the herb collecting villager they rescued a few days ago.
This poor villager was also infected with Mad Dragon Syndrome. It is not known whether it was because the open wound infection was more direct or because of his own physical problem. His symptoms were much more severe than Feng Ying's.
After waking up, his consciousness was very clear and his thinking was not significantly affected, but he seemed to be suffering from bipolar disorder and was very irritable and irritable.
At the same time, his body also became weak, and he would often become out of breath after yelling for a while.
In order to avoid causing uneasiness to other villagers and eliminate certain possible risks, the elders isolated it.
Although the sick villager was irritable, he did not lose his mind. He could understand the elders' decision-making, but the mania during the "sickness" was not something that ordinary people could suppress with reason.
It was Feng Ying who took the initiative to give the villager the few remaining medicines for suppressing dragon disease, which effectively alleviated the villager's symptoms of dragon disease.
This is also a helpless move. If there is no medicine to suppress it, by the time the guild's support arrives, the villager's physical condition will likely deteriorate to an irreversible level.
However, the result of this is that Feng Ying has no inhibitory medicine available.
As the days passed, her symptoms began to worsen.
The only good thing is that Feng Ying, like Hayata, is not weak, but according to Hayata, Feng Ying's symptoms are more serious than her own in terms of manic emotions and thoughts at the time. .
Although Feng Ying tried hard to suppress this mania by relying on reason, so that there were not many abnormalities visible on the surface, but sometimes her subconscious reactions would make people feel that something was wrong.
For example, when Gordon reminded her not to "squeak" while eating, she actually glared at Gordon with her teeth bared. Although she immediately apologized, this "life-threatening" behavior still caused everyone to fall into silence.
Gordon didn't beat her, he just touched her head, but the worry in his heart increased.
Maybe it’s time to let Feng Ying go to the hunting ground to “vent”?
Fortunately, at this time Ancier made a rather weird but very constructive suggestion - let Hayata wear the black dragon armor with Feng Ying.
Hayata immediately took off his armor, and at the same time felt annoyed, why didn't he think of this method before?
Any hunter knows that lending out armor is strictly prohibited by the guild, but now he can't care so much.
The two have completely different figures. Hayata is a whole head taller than Feng Ying, but the latter can still wear it if she insists on wearing it.
It doesn’t matter if it doesn’t fit, it’s not used for fighting anyway, it’s just used as a medical treatment.
The black dragon armor has an immediate effect on suppressing the mad dragon virus.
After putting on or putting on this set of armor, Feng Ying immediately felt refreshed. The anxiety and desire to attack that had been bothering her day and night in recent days dissipated in a short period of time.
She just looked a little funny, like a little girl who stole her mother's skirt.
After being happy for a while, Feng Ying suddenly looked at Hayata, "Sister Hayata, you are infected with Dragon Disease. Is it much more serious than me? You lent me this equipment, are you okay?"
Gordon also stared at Hayata, which was also what he was most worried about.
I don’t know when, purple blood streaks covered Hayata’s sclera, which made her eyes look a little strange, but her mood remained stable, and she even felt relieved. .
“It’s okay, I’ve long been used to it.” (End of Chapter)
