Blood of Mercury

Looking at the White Tower - the star of civilization, the hope of mankind, the pride of reason.

From Suze in the north, you can enter the White Pagoda directly to the south, and you can also enter the territory of the White Pagoda by going southeast from Fararo, but if you want to enter the White Pagoda from Caral, there is only one way.

Although Caral wrapped Farara like a flat crescent moon, in fact, it was only the arc of the lower half that was adjacent to the White Tower.

The City of Fortune is already very close to the White Tower. Even on the footsteps of a poor horse, it is possible to reach it in two days by walking east from the City of Fortune.

However, because Roland went north to find Claudia before, if he didn't want to cross the border of Fararu when he went east, he had to go around to the south.

But even so, it took only three days for the four Roland and the others to walk away, and they could vaguely see the shadow of the city.

Roland squinted at the city that appeared in the distance, with a little nostalgia in his eyes.

"The White Tower..."

I am back.

The second half of the sentence was gently chewed by Roland and swallowed back into his stomach.

This is Iron Curtain City.

It is different from the common people's perception of the White Pagoda. The city is not so grand and splendid as heaven.

On the contrary - gray smoke constantly floated out of the city, condensed in the sky, and dyed the surrounding clouds into a gray color.

No, to be precise, there were no clouds on that day.

From a distance, it's not just that there are no clouds above the city. Even the clouds in the surrounding cities retreated as if in fear, and around the thick gray fog covering the Iron Curtain City as soft as a gray-black pudding, there was a large cloudless area that was so blue that it was scary.

"...This is the White Tower?"

Claudia's tone was full of disbelief.

In any wizarding education she could receive, the White Tower was mentioned as a wizarding paradise.

Now, where is heaven? It's almost like hell!

"Ah... this is a polluted area, just move forward a little..."

Being watched by Claudia, An Ruosi felt that the soles of his feet could not stop stinging and itching. His right hand holding the cane unconsciously exerted force, while his left hand also clenched into a fist and kept rubbing.

It's not that he has a guilty conscience. Mainly because Claudia's current power is simply too terrifying.

It was a tingling sensation on the skin just by approaching it.

If only so. Then she would just be annoying.

But Claudia's temperament changed synchronously. From that kind of gentle innocence and kindness to another - more in line with the sanity and mystery of wizards.

If Claudia in the past felt like a gemstone ring, now it feels like an amethyst-studded bone wood staff——

Forgive An Russi can only think of this type of metaphor.

Simply put, it's the same beauty, but from innocuous enchantment to another kind of heady danger.

Rescue Claudia in Roland. And after telling her the news of Kluveen's death, Claudia seemed to have changed a person in an instant.

Apart from becoming soft in front of Roland and gentle in front of An Ruosi, anyone who sees her will shiver.

"Okay, Claudia, calm down."

Roland switched the cane from his right hand to his left. Taking two steps back, he wrapped his right hand around Claudia's back and gently pressed her shoulder.

Then, Roland leaned into Claudia's ear and said softly, "My Lady, you are out of control again."

Claudia realized her gaffe, slowed down, took a deep breath, and then showed Roland a perfect smile: "Then I've adjusted now, my lord, you can let me go. ?"

"if you want."

Roland shrugged and took down his right hand, but a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

If An Ruosi is familiar. He will know that this temperament is the unique temperament of the undead.

Of course, Claudia is not undead.

The injury caused by Claudia being thrown by Kluveen with the blade shield was far more serious than Roland imagined.

Five of her sternums were broken, her right knee was fractured, her right arm was directly broken into pieces, her shoulder joints also fell off, and the broken bones of her right arm pierced into an artery, and there were two pieces in her chest. A bone spur pierced the lung.

However, even with such an injury, Claudia lingered on for half an hour and still did not die. Finally, Roland cast a harmless chant on her.

Roland knew that Claudia was already dead.

If Roland can check her attributes at that time, she will find that her health has been reduced to zero.

But because of the mercy of the Sleeping Master, she did not let the law of the Wall of Orm take her soul. She can wait until An Ruosi carries her to see Roland and receive the treatment of harmless chant.

If it were a little longer - not much, as long as Claudia was not resurrected before the sun went down, she would be undead.

It's not hard to do this.

Roland faced a choice when he was in the basement before.

If he hadn't given up on cultivating the plague that was effective on the people of Twilight before the collapse of the White Tower, Roland would definitely find a way to collect the body parts of the pyroxene species so that he could cultivate humans with the blood of Twilight.

After that, Roland will disassemble these machines. Check to see if there are any remaining glowing blood ingredients in it.

Although Roland knew, 80% of the time it would not happen.

You know, it takes a long time to drink the blood of glow until it mutates, otherwise Singia has no reason to wait so long to find this army.

The biggest reason why Roland entered Singia's tavern and saw the **** on earth coming before his eyes was because someone mixed their blood of glow with the blood of demonized glow made from the blood of twilight dependents .

That kind of blood full of chaotic magic power, even these people who usually drink the blood of glow can't bear it, and one by one mutated in front of Roland.

Roland now looks back and thinks that the person who threw the pyroxene into the pumping chamber to contaminate all the glowing blood and induce these ghoul drinkers to mutate is most likely the "Edward".

——However, if Roland went to investigate those machines at that time, the result would be that Claudia could not see Roland before dark, and finally died and then resurrected, becoming an undead.

In the case that Claudia and Roland are not on the same line, Roland attracts the hatred of the death crow again, and the biggest possibility is death.

Arguably, that was a crucial choice.

On the other hand, for Claudia, this near-death experience was also extremely important.

The experience during this period successfully made her close friend die in front of her eyes because of her protection. Claudia obtained the characteristic of cruel thinking, as well as the most important characteristic of the priest of the long-sleeping mentor - "death experience".

Death experience (personal characteristic)

Effect: All divine spells you cast involving the death domain will gain a 50% bonus to their effect and success rate; you are no longer affected by prophetic spells.

——I came from a dead country, and my previous life was all dust.

There are so many magic spells with a success rate of 65% to 80% on the list of the gods of the death crow, which is to emphasize how important this feature is to the death crow.

A death crow that has never died once cannot be regarded as a real death crow.

Thinking of this, Roland turned his head and glanced at Joseph, who was walking behind him silently, and raised his eyebrows.

... Of course, Roland didn't want Claudia to be a martyr compared to the less-than-perfect death crow.

"Roland, where is this place?"

At this moment, Claudia turned around and asked Roland.

The aura in her body regained. Back to normal again.

"This city is called Iron Curtain City."

Roland answered.

"You know, gadgets made by wizards are just too dangerous compared to the useless but safe toys of alchemists."

"Don't say it is used, even if it is destroyed, if it is not handled properly, it will cause a large-scale disaster."

"In the beginning, this city was caused by people destroying a large number of enchanted items, causing the nearby Aum Law to be disordered, and even opening the space cracks leading to the underground..."

"Underground? You mean underground?!"

Claudia exclaimed.

"...Yes, that is the underground."

An Ruosi took Roland's words with fear in his eyes: "So this city was undoubtedly destroyed."

"So, after the wizards killed or captured the underground species, they spent a lot of effort to restore the disordered laws here. Then, after research and discussion, they decided on something like this-"

"In order to ensure that the magic power defined by Aum's Law will not leak and cause greater pollution~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Damaged enchanted items must be destroyed, but they must be destroyed in the special furnace. But because the furnace's power is not enough, The contaminated magic will still escape in the form of magic dust."

"These magic dusts are not a good thing. Whether it's prolonged contact or breathing, it will over-order the flesh--to put it simply, it will turn to stone."

Roland made no secret of the disdain in his tone: "Claudia, if you look closely, you will find that people who come in and out of this city either wrap themselves tightly, or It's just a sluggish look and stiff limbs..."

"...But, why are you here?"

"It's very simple," Roland replied as a matter of course, "of course it's because this place was destroyed once by the underground race, and it's worthless."

"This lady is right."

Before Claudia could respond, a young man's voice came from behind several people. (To be continued.)
