Chapter 190 Eye of Saigon
After Nole’s narration, Bai Pu learned about the process of the matter.
Norai was one of the first alchemists to study how to restore those who died from the plague and turn them back into normal people.
Qin has already told that all similar attempts ended in failure. Those who died from the plague were not cured, but instead became powerful first-generation aberrations!
After Nolai's son was infected with the flesh plague, he also became a plague-killer.
In order to save his son, Nole launched taboo research. As a result, his son became the Blood Mist Butcher, killing Nole's wife and neighbors. Nole temporarily applied an alchemical potion to mask the smell on his body before escaping. Pass a tribulation.
Nole was disheartened by this blow.
But what makes him even more heartbroken is that his son, the aberrant monster he created, is still killing creatures, with his hands covered in sin.
Nole himself is a devout Catholic. In his opinion, his son's soul is possessed by the devil and cannot return to the embrace of the Lord. And by giving up his distinguished status as a master alchemist and living in seclusion in a rat's den, he was using suffering to punish himself, to atone for his son's sins, and to pray for the Lord's forgiveness!
"Thank you, warrior. You let my son's soul rest in peace." Nole said sincerely.
[Step 1 of Silver Side Mission: The Buried Truth has been completed. 】
[Alchemy master Nole's favorability towards you has been greatly increased. The current favorability level is: 3000/10000 (friend). 】
【Do you want to receive the task reward now? If you do this, this series of side quests will end. 】
【You can also accumulate rewards into subsequent side tasks and collect them together after completion. 】
3000 points of favorability from an alchemist master!
It can be seen from this that [Nole's Old Pocket Watch], as a mission item, is indeed valuable. No wonder it was not excluded as a low-valued card.
"No need to thank you, I also have something to ask you for." Bai Pu changed his mind and chose not to receive it for the time being, and said.
The job transfer task requires two masters who are proficient in flesh and blood alchemy.
To be able to "create" aberrations of the level of the Blood Mist Butcher, Nole must be proficient in flesh and blood alchemy. As for whether he is a "master", this is a title certified by the will of the spirit world!
Although Bai Pu could try to abduct Dean Harvey from the Royal Alchemy Academy and leave it to Qin to persuade, it would not be as smooth as Bai Pu's personal management of the favorability, and it would reduce the leverage on Qin, which would definitely It can improve Bai Pu's job transfer task evaluation.
"What I can do to help you now is limited because I lack the necessary equipment," Nole said.
“So, we have to leave this place first.” Bai Pu said.
Nole nodded in agreement.
Bai Pu also received a reminder from the will of the spiritual world.
[Silver Side Mission Step 2: Escape from Kalmar Fortress]
[Mission goal: Escape from the Kalmar Fortress with the alchemist Nole; Nole must survive. 】
[Task Difficulty: C+]
[Task Period: None (equal to your remaining residence time in this world)]
[Task Reward: Unknown]
[Mission Punishment: None] “It’s actually a C+ level silver branch?”
Bai Pu frowned slightly.
The difficulty of the C+ level silver side mission is approximately equivalent to the difficulty of the A+ level standard mission. This means that rescuing Nole will definitely involve a battle!
Bai Pu turned over the comatose alchemist Adya and found something like an eyeball crushed in his hand.
"The Eye of Saigon." Nole said with some surprise, "This is a paired alchemical product. There must be another Eye of Saigon that was made together in another place. When one When the eyeball is broken, the other Eye of Saigon will also be broken. The only purpose of this inferior alchemy product is to transmit messages. Of course, the range is not large, so it is not very practical.”
"It was my negligence."
Bai Pu shook his head and said. He did not be too vigilant about this C-level silver side mission.
After all, the job transfer task Bai Pu is doing is as difficult as SS level! Even if it is split into multiple sub-options, each option is not lower than S grade.
Look at what kind of monsters he faced, the Blood Mist Butcher, Scarlet Wings... He also went to the Royal Alchemy Academy to kidnap Princess Christina!
Compared with these tasks, the C-level silver side tasks did make Bai Pu feel a little contempt in his subconscious, especially when the military strength of Kalmar Fortress was greatly mobilized.
Bai Pu thought that Alchemist Adiya and his apprentice were just ordinary little people, so he didn't pay too much attention to it. However, he was tricked by two small people——
Obviously, Alchemist Adiya When Bai Pu attacked, he crushed the Eye of Saigon in his hand, and the other paired Eye of Saigon must be with his apprentice! When the apprentice discovers that the Eye of Saigon is broken, what will he do in panic?
Of course, "call the police" - ask for help from the Blood Ring Troops of Kalmar Fortress!
"This is a lesson." Bai Pu silently remembered it in his heart. Since his awakening, everything has gone smoothly, and everything he expected has come true. It is inevitable that he will feel proud and arrogant. Although this setback is not fatal, it is It can also be regarded as a warning.
"There will be a fierce battle next...except for the 'Pure Blood', which cannot be used, all other cards can be used. Let's take this opportunity to see what the highest difficulty of the C+ level silver branch is like."
Bai Pu quickly put aside his frustration and pondered silently.
When killing Scarlet Wings, Bai Pu had already used up the second drop of pure blood.
The regeneration cycle of each drop of pure blood is up to 7 days! Even if it is shortened by eating, without rare and precious meat, it can only be shortened to two or three days at most.
However, Qin has refined an alchemical product called "Snora Blood Vine Fruit Essence", which can quickly replenish blood after injection, and the side effects can make people sleep for several hours.
In the world of [Flesh Plague: Origin], after Qin extracted 1000 ml of Bai Pu's blood, she injected him with this fruit essence, allowing Bai Pu to fully recover after sleeping for 4 hours.
In the city of Malmo, Bai Pu also gave himself an injection, and after falling asleep for more than three hours, he successfully recovered a drop of pure blood. It's a pity that this "fruit essence" cannot be injected continuously, and it is difficult to extract. It can only be used as an emergency treatment and cannot be used as a routine method to replenish pure blood.
Therefore, Bai Pu must keep the pure blood card for the Royal Alchemy Academy’s mission! As for other trump cards, even the long cooldown skills that come with the equipment can be used.
Under the guidance of Nolai, Bai Pu and Bai Pu walked along the sewer and left through the exit from the sewer to the outside of the city.
As expected, a blood-ringed team was already waiting at the exit! Obviously, the blood ring troops who received the report have monitored Bai Pu's possible escape movements, and this exit leading out of the city is no exception!
Two elite blood ring soldiers and ten plague victims.
There are two blood ring soldiers, one is a level 5 blood ring heavy hammer warrior, and the other is a level 6 blood ring heavy swordsman. The strength is stronger than the elite soldiers guarding the farm.
"You stay in the sewer, I will go out first." Bai Pu said to Nole.
Norai is an alchemy scholar. Unlike Qin, who is the "Blood Mage", he does not have much combat power, only profound alchemy knowledge.
Bai Pu cannot rely on Nolai's power, but has to protect him at every turn. This is also part of the difficulty of the mission. After all, "Nole must survive" is the mission requirement!
Bai Pu pulled out a sharp long knife, ducked out of the sewer exit, and rushed directly towards the Blood Ring Team!
