Chapter 373 372. Blood of the Ancient God
“I agree, as experience grows stronger through exchanges, our technology can progress further.”
Lan nodded at Alfred. nod.
The blond hunter was even more enthusiastic after receiving the recognition.
He took out a stack of red matte paper from his arms and forced it into Lan En's hand.
"Great, great! Take it, let's use it to celebrate our acquaintance!"
Lan En pinched the sanding paper a little at a loss. This person is a bit awkward in Yanan, where people are generally indifferent and exclusive. It seems so friendly that it makes people uncomfortable.
"It is indeed worthy of celebration but what is this?"
"Ah, I forgot that you are a novice." Alfred patted his head and said apologetically.
“This is fire paper, a gadget produced by the church’s hunter workshop. Rub this matte paper against the weapon, and the surface of the weapon will begin to burn with flames. The duration of one sheet is half It won’t damage the weapon for about a minute. After all, you should use fire when hunting wild beasts.”
Lan En looked at the fire paper in his hand with curiosity. This technology is indeed very convenient for warriors.
Humans in the magical world have a variety of weapon enchantments, and the burning effect is not without them.
It is even better than the fire paper here in Bia Nan, which can make the enemy hit spontaneously catch fire, instead of relying on the flames on his own blade to cause a few burns.
But there are also problems with enchantments in the magical world - the enchantments there are about triggering.
After installing the magic runes, not every hit can trigger the enchantment effect.
There once was an unlucky noble knight who customized a warhammer with extra impact at Ban Ade Academy. As a result, the magic runes kept flashing during the battle, but the impact effect was not triggered even once.
Go to the college for a refund, but they will not accept it. After all, when others use it, it will be effective at least once out of three times. You cannot say that the craftsmanship of the academy is adulterated.
This is because people can’t do it, not because hammers can’t do it. There is no reason for compensation or return.
Fire paper can stably output fire damage and is ready to be used, which seems very convenient.
It is expected that the cost should be much cheaper than rune enchantment.
"Thank you, this is a very good gift."
Lan stuffed the fire paper into the alchemical leather bag on his waist and thanked Alfred.
"By the way, do you know the situation of those clergymen wandering around? They all seem to be a little unfriendly?"
"'Unfriendly'? Haha, what you said It’s really tactful.”
The blond hunter smiled indifferently.
"Those are Sumeru people who were brought out of the dungeon labyrinth by the church a long time ago. The church cured their diseases and brought them back to the surface. In return, they became the gatekeepers of the church."< br>
"Believe me, Lan En. Even if you come in from outside the church town now wearing a set of church clothes, they will carry out the orders of the church agents to the letter and drive you out to death."
< br>A lot of intelligence information popped up in one breath, and Lan En commissioned Mentos to record and analyze it in his mind.
"Agent of the Church? Who is that? And the dungeon maze?"
The witcher stood in a chatting manner, trying to find someone who knew a lot in Yharnan and was willing to It’s not easy to talk to someone.
Alfred fit Lan En's impression of him very well, he was enthusiastic and cheerful.
“Of course, people who have just come to Yanan will inevitably be curious about everything. Of course I can explain it to you. The night is still long anyway.”
“The church agent is Amelia Madam, since the death of Bishop Lawrence, his student has been the agent of the church. She also issued the order to close the church town tonight."
"She was too weak to let the hunters of the church hide. Beast, what’s this?”
Alfred’s mouth made no secret of his dissatisfaction, as well as his certain belief and persistence in the profession of hunter. "As for the dungeon maze? Ah, you will definitely go there once, at least once, in your future career as a hunter. Hunters should always go there to find their own [Holy Communion]."
"Receiving the blood and flesh of the ancient gods! This act is the foundation of the healing church."
[Holy Communion], Lan En has heard of this religious concept.
The blood of the object of faith is likened to red wine, and the meat is likened to bread.
Eating red wine and bread is equivalent to receiving blessings and love from the object of faith.
But in Yanan, the concept of [Holy Communion] is obviously different from Lan En's mind.
At least in terms of [blood], Lan En feels that they will definitely use real blood.
But ‘the blood and flesh of the ancient gods’?
‘Ancient God’? !
The witcher keenly grasped the key information of concern in the sentence.
"Alfred, you just said...ancient god? The Healing Church possesses the flesh and blood of the ancient god?"
"That's it." The blond hunter talked about the flesh and blood of the god as a matter of course. "Since the blood of Yharnam is the blood of the ancient gods, the basis of blood therapy is to make the blood quality of the blood saints approach the gods through training, and then share it with everyone."
"Human beings are small and shallow, and only have Only through the blood of the ancient gods can one's existence be close to the gods."
"The ultimate pursuit of healing the church is not to heal, but to get close to, and even become, a god."
"These things. It’s not secret, but it exists in the church’s mottos. It’s just that the ordinary people outside are too obsessed with blood and don’t care about the ‘useless’ mottos.”
At this point, Lan En is completely sure that the source of lycanthropy is blood therapy.
If you look at it from a different perspective, the Healing Church is a dark organization that uses religious means to explore the enhancement of the human body.
And they have also rolled out rough and potentially dangerous human body enhancement technology on a large scale! In the name of religion!
Direct blood transfusion Even in the oldest science fiction novel "Frankenstein", there is no such crude body modification technique!
The Healing Church’s purpose of promoting blood therapy is not to cure diseases and save lives, but to obtain more cases and more experimental data!
Medical treatment, for them, is not a means of treatment, but a means of exploration.
There is nothing more intuitive about the knowledge of the blood of gods than the phenomena in the cases.
Lan En looked at the enthusiastic blond hunter in front of him.
He wears the church's hunter attire and wields weapons for the Healing Church. But his body was also mixed with blood that was not his own.
And he believed in it wholeheartedly and fought endlessly.
Healing Church researchers not only study large numbers of ordinary people, but also their own elite hunters.
Lan En had a moment of murderous intent, but immediately after realizing that the church hunter in front of him was also a member of the experimental subjects, his murderous intent disappeared.
Alfred only felt an inexplicable coldness on his neck, and then everything became normal. He thought it was a wisp of cold, moist air entering his collar.
"How could God let humans take away his own flesh and blood? That is God."
Lan En lowered his eyes, and his scattered silver hair exuded a soft fragrance under the moonlight. Light.
After Alfred turned his face to the side unnaturally, he cleared his throat before continuing.
"Well. God can't defeat time. The church discovered the body of the ancient god in the dungeon maze. That was also the beginning of people's confirmation of the existence of the ancient god."
"Yes, time. "Lan En raised his head, looked at the moon phase that seemed to never change, and nodded.
"The ancient gods are no match for time, well, that's right, it makes sense."
