Chapter 925 907. Baby Keystone
Lan stretched out his fingers towards the little baby who looked like a corpse, while Ocelot naturally used his thin and almost dragon-shaped Claw's hand wrapped around Lann's fingers.
Is it because I have received [Sunshine Moisture]?
That is the highest-level healing [miracle] that only Princess Lothric, Ocelot’s mother, possesses.
As the youngest son of the most powerful clan of gods today, Ocelot may be able to feel the power from his mother in this situation.
Having been forced to undergo an experiment at the hands of his father that nearly killed him, it was only natural that he would reach out to his mother's gentle and bright power and long for love.
“It’s a pity that the gods who exterminated the ancient dragon clan and created the Age of Fire are now pursuing the form of the ancient dragon in an attempt to adapt themselves to an era without fire?”
Lan En held Ocelot in one hand while looking at the white dragon corpse of Ocelot that fell against the wall.
I felt a little ironic for a moment.
"You will take care of him first, flannel ball."
"Meow?" The calico kitten opened its mouth wide and covered its head, asking in disbelief, "I have never seen a cub, meow!"
"What can I do?"
Lan En shrugged and put the baby, which was about the same size as El Cat, back on the flannel ball's raised hands.
"I have to go deeper to the Fire Sacrifice according to what the chief priest Emma said. How can I bring a baby with me?"
"And he is a baby of the gods, there is no So fragile. At least it's better in your hands than in the hands of Osloes."
Lan En reached out and touched the flannel ball's head.
“Stay well here with him. We have both cleaned up the surrounding area, and there is no danger. When I finish my work, I will return the same way, and then I can hand over Ocelot to They are the officiant.”
“I heard that the officiant of Losric will also serve as the prince’s nurse according to tradition, so he is a professional counterpart.”
The three-flowered kitten lowered her head and sighed. , looked at the baby held above his head with helpless eyes.
"Okay, but come back soon, meow. I can only look after children but can't fight. It's so boring."
Lan En curled his lips at the words of the flannel ball and reached out to tap its forehead.
“Don’t act like a war freak!”
“But fighting is more interesting than looking after children, meow!”
“He doesn’t cry or make trouble. , It’s very worry-free.”
Under the skillful prevarication of the demon hunter, Eluma reluctantly accepted the task.
Fluffy Ball held up the baby in his hand and found a corner to huddle up in the palace, which was even more dilapidated by the battle just now, looking aggrieved.
But Lan En, who didn’t need to bring the oil bottle with him, breathed a sigh of relief and walked towards the other end of the palace.
He moved his wrists, elbows and shoulders from time to time.
The entanglement with Oceroes just now, like a pas de deux on the tip of a knife, did not have no impact on him.
Even with his current body and physical strength, when he just killed the White Dragon Demon King, he already felt that the saliva in his mouth had become sticky. It also smells like rust.
His chest was bulging as if he was blowing a bellows, and he was breathing heavily.
Moreover, the two arms holding the sword against each other began to suffer from contusions and sprains of varying degrees.
Fortunately, the extent of these minor injuries was under his control.
A natural and refreshing power spread throughout his body from the small coat of arms hanging around his waist.
It's like drinking a glass of ice-cold orange soda on a hot day.
The power of [Early Recovery Stone] is repairing the minor injuries on his body, and making his condition closer to the 'best'.
When he took a sip of [high-grade white honey], the poison of the magic potion on his body was relieved. After picking up the [Dragon Roar] heavy ballista that was just thrown to the ground, loaded a new magazine and put it back into the alchemy leather bag.
I can no longer feel the dull pain in my joints.
Compared with the [Swallow] potion, this kind of thing that takes effect throughout the whole process is more worry-free.
At the other end of the Osroais Palace, there is a very roughly polished stone door.
Even though the palace has been tossed back and forth by the crazy Osloais, this stone door still seems a bit inconsistent in the artificially repaired building structure.
"Deep. Keep going"
While confirming the description of Emma's priest with Mentos, Lan opened the stone door.
After entering the stone gate, there is a downward stone staircase.
Judging from the direction of Lothric City, it has already penetrated deep into the mountain and is heading towards the other side of the mountain.
After descending the stone steps, Lan En looked around strangely.
He subconsciously felt that he was in a powerful force, but this force was in an unconscious state, just like air.
The witcher observed his location.
This is a small foyer after walking up the stairs. The stones used on the left and right walls of the foyer are completely different from the ceiling and floor, and also different from the previous buildings.
Other places are artificially repaired and neatly decorated with bricks and stones. Can be placed on the left and right walls
"Is this some kind of rune?"
Lan muttered, stroking the wall with his fingers wearing leather gloves with steel armor.
The building materials used on these two walls are large stone bricks that look angular, and there are some kind of rune marks on the front. It's just that these stone bricks still have some different damages.
Logically speaking, in the king's palace, how can we use damaged bricks?
And this place doesn't seem to have any traces of being tortured by Oceroes after he went crazy. Building materials are inherently damaged.
“And this texture.”
While rubbing the wall, Lan En took out a stone that was too big to hold in his hand from the alchemy leather bag on his waist.
That was the wedge-shaped stone he picked up from the courtyard before.
The witcher looked blankly at the wedge-shaped stone in his hand, and then turned his attention blankly to the wall in front of him.
It's the same material.
These two walls are all keystones? !
Even Lan En could only blink in silence in this situation.
Keystone is an important and precious raw material for forging weapons in this world.
The more complete the keystone, the stronger the power. It is said that the complete original disc of the keystone was the raw material for the gods in the Age of Gods to forge weapons.
It would be great for an ordinary warrior, or even a low-level priest of the White Sect, to possess one or two of the smallest wedge-shaped stone fragments that look like marbles.
And now, these two walls...
“They are all original wedge-shaped stones?!”
Although each stone slab has sporadic damage in the corners, but The overall shape is complete.
This is already considered a [keystone disc]! The most advanced forging material in the world!
No wonder I feel like there is a powerful force lingering unconsciously.
These two walls add up to hundreds of wedge-shaped stone disks! That's hundreds of divine weapons sitting here!
Lan knew that normal Osroais was very powerful, and Lothric under his leadership was also very powerful.
But he did not expect that even now, as the end of fire approaches and all things decline, Lothric still has the ability and resources to gather the most precious materials in the world to build a few walls.
"Used to build several walls. What is this for?"
Lan En murmured in confusion.
But he didn’t dare to act rashly.
After all, with Osroais' knowledge and strength in his normal state, it is not impossible for him to do something to the First Fire, which is the foundation of the world, even if he constructs a ritual.
It is possible to construct great rituals and great magic.
If something goes wrong accidentally, who knows how these hundreds of wedge-shaped stone disks will react?
But the good news is: Lan En can definitely confirm that these walls are not yet completed.
Because there is an original wedge-shaped stone plate at the witcher's feet, which has not yet been embedded.
Now, this most precious material in the world is lying on the ground like an ordinary stone brick on a construction site, with chisels, shovels and other things placed on it.
Looks like he is taking a break during the project.
Lan En scratched his cheek and looked down at the large wedge-shaped stone disc.
If it hasn't been embedded yet, it means that the rituals and magic are not complete yet, right?
It shouldn’t be a problem if you take this piece away yourself?
Lan En swept aside the chisels, shovels and other tools on the original plate of the wedge-shaped stone, and then picked it up with a sigh.
He did not dare to move those that had been embedded in the wall, for fear of causing any problems.
Even if the power of these hundreds of wedge-shaped stone disks was revealed a little, he doubted how much of the entire city of Lothric would be left.
And since Osroais himself has been killed, this 'leftover material' that has not yet been embedded must be useless!
Lan En stuffed the original keystone into the alchemical leather bag.
After passing this small entrance hall, which looked inconspicuous but contained truly astonishing power and value, Lan En continued walking deeper.
After walking for a while, he vaguely heard the sound distorted by the echo from the winding corridor.
That was the sound of blood splattering and a sharp blade being stabbed into the flesh and pulled out again.
Someone is fighting inside?
Lan En's steps immediately became faster, and when he saw the place where the sound came from in the corridor, there was only one person holding a pair of strange-shaped swords.
A person who wraps his head and shoulders with a piece of dirty and torn hemp cloth.
He was stabbing someone dressed like himself to death.
The corpses were piled at the foot of the corridor wall, lined up for a long time.
The one in front of him was the last one.
Is this some kind of sacrifice?
Lan En is a little unsure.
If it were another world, this would undoubtedly be a murder scene.
But in this world where death itself is ritualistic, Lothric knights even pursue beheading as a noble way to die.
Lan En could only frown and approach cautiously.
Originally, he wanted to say hello and ask.
But it's a pity that the guy just stabbed to death a person dressed like himself.
Without saying anything, he held the two strange-shaped double knives in his hands and ran towards Lan En quickly!
