Mercenaries and Adventurers

Vol 4 Chapter 348: , [Lion Potion] and Promise

A moment later, outside the lumberyard in the west of the town.

The convoy regrouped, and Kiel recalled the loggers who had evacuated from the battle, and asked these young people who had already been unable to restrain themselves to continue cutting and processing firewood at the place where the logs were processed in the morning.

Elite soldiers stood guard on top of log piles scattered around the worksite, while priests gathered around empty carriages and discussed the previous battle in low voices. The seriously injured young soldier was lying on an exquisite knight's cloak. The heavy injury could not be healed by the priests so quickly. At this time, the bleeding was simply stopped by the Saturnine priests, and It was simply bandaged.

No matter how you say it, subsequent treatment will have to wait until you return to Yemei Town.

After all, treating such a serious injury requires more priests to work together to perform healing magic.

The priests present were skilled enough, but it was obvious that it was impossible for church priests from different faiths to join forces to do anything.

That's unthinkable.

"How is his condition? When I rescued him, I saw that he was hit **** the head by a monster?"

Kiel stood aside and said to the Baron heir who took off his cloak and used it to lie down on his injured hand.

"Well, the priests have checked it out. The injury to his waist is serious and the other problems are minor. It should be that the helmet helped him block the monster's attack." Bell explained briefly. Then he patted Kil's armored arm and motioned for Kil to come aside and talk with him.

Kil shrugged and followed.

"What are you going to say? Are you curious about my axe? Or my sword?" Kil said with a smile.

"None of them." Bell stretched out his hand and gestured for Keir to sit down with him, sitting on a horizontal log half a person's height.

"What is that? Do you think I had reservations in fighting before? Please, I am an outsider. Isn't it a basic operation to have reservations in fighting?" Kil muttered, unfolded the cloak behind him, and then sat down. On logs.

"A little bit, but that's not it. Kil, I'm just curious, what is your relationship with the Church of Saturn? During the battle just now, I saw and felt that there was a strong, um, The aura of the **** of agriculture. To fight against monsters like that just now, weapons are one thing, but I believe that power just now is also very important, right?"

As Bell spoke, he looked at the Saturnine priests who were gathered together to talk and discuss from a distance. When the Saturnine priests were talking and discussing, they also pointed at Keir here.

Obviously what they discussed was related to Kiir.

"that?"

Kil chuckled lightly and patted his ribs under his chest: "When you help the Church of Saturn, you have to give some benefits, right? The general will not send a group of hungry soldiers to the battlefield, that's why."

"Oh. I'm a little curious about this. Can you tell me more about this ability?" Bell rolled his eyes and asked Kil.

So Keir briefly talked about the news about [The Source of Grass and Trees].

"Unlimited energy in a short period of time? That's great, but it's a pity that it has to be provided by a parish-level church."

Bell shook his head, wondering what plan he had given up.

Then he changed his words and hoped that Kil could bring his soldiers to join forces with him to deal with the flesh demons in the wild.

"You must have discovered the direction in which those guys retreated just now, right? Their lair must be in a certain direction in the forest. Ordinary teams are probably no match against them, but you have also seen with your own eyes that as long as they are sophisticated enough, they can use extreme Defeat a large number of monsters with low damage! Although there are powerful boss monsters, they are no match for knights like us."

Clenching his fists, Bell looked confident.

Kil waved his hand: "Let's talk about it, let's talk about it. I have received all the benefits from the Church of the God of Saturn, so I have to deal with other people's affairs first, right?"

Bell stopped talking, and the two just sat on the log, discussing martial arts skills in a low voice.

The heir to the baron despised Kiel's spear skills, thinking that Kiel had never received formal training in skills and that Kiel's knight teacher was very unqualified.

"Please, Knight Crow only taught me how to conduct life energy training. Before he could teach me anything else, I separated from the team and got involved in the Church of Saturn. I also want to learn more, but No chance."

"Life energy training? What's there to learn? If you drink a few bottles of potion, won't they grow rapidly on their own?" Bell said with a surprised look on his face.

Kil smiled bitterly: "I don't have the status of a noble heir. I used to be an ordinary person. At most, I helped the people solve some problems. Later, I got a good opportunity and asked Knight Crow to train me as a trainee knight. . The knight did mention that he drank expensive potions to become a knight. But I didn’t have any of these, so on the way south, I ate monster bodies to increase my life energy."

Bell rubbed his chin with his fine steel-armored palm: "This is also a simple method, but it is a bit slow, and the results are difficult to guarantee." He looked at Kiel, then at himself, and compared the results just now The two were a little discouraged after fighting the leader of the parasitic monster: "Your teacher seems to have trained you well. Either you are very talented in fighting."

"Even if his martial arts skills are extremely poor."

"You don't need to say the last part of your compliment." Keir complained.

Kil suddenly scratched the itch in his hair through his helmet and asked in a casual tone: "By the way, I don't know a lot of common sense about knights. You are a serious noble heir and have received serious knight training. Then. Do you know how to alleviate the resentment of enemies haunting your dreams after killing too many enemies?"

"Kill the enemy? You want to say kill, right? It seems that you are really an unqualified trainee knight and you don't know these common senses."

Bell pointed to his helmet and armor: "There are many ways. My father chose to find someone to put some spells and magical power on the armor that he and I gave him and me."

"you?"

Bell glanced at the fully covered metal armor that Kil was wearing: "It's tightly wrapped from top to bottom, but apart from that, it doesn't have any additional function, and you can't see the craftsmanship at all."

Kil smiled and took out a piece of dry cloth to wipe his armor. Although it was said to be useless and not very good, Kil still took good care of this armor. Although he had fought with a large number of bandits some time ago and had been "drenched" by the opponent's arrows once, and it looked a bit mottled, his armor was still quite good overall.

Although the Ganna craftsman's craftsmanship is immature and he doesn't have any unique skills, this armor protects him very well, and that's enough.

"What about other than that? Are there no other means? After all, not everyone has the means like yours, right? I don't think every craftsman who makes armor for knights has mastered this technology, right?"

Facing Kiel's question, the baron heir nodded: "Yes, my father has a very good relationship with a certain magician, so he can get the qualification to cast spells on our family's armor in person. As for others, You can ask that church for help.”

"That church? Which church? Which god?"

Bell looked helpless: "You don't know this? The Warrior Hall! Some famous warriors, not just knights, warriors, archers and other warriors, and guys with some skills can join the Warrior Hall, a church that serves warriors. Organization. And you don’t need to believe in the God of War. After joining, you just need to fight bravely without violating the teachings. There is probably a way to solve this problem. "

Kil silently wrote these things down, but Bell unexpectedly said in a low voice: "I also heard that the ghosts that haunt people after killing people can also be turned into powerful weapons."

After whispering, he continued: "As for other means, there are more."

He pointed at the priests of the previous churches: "Formally joining the Church of God, I think each church has a solution. In fact, they are all small problems that are not problems."

"What if we don't join them?" Kil asked with a smile.

"Then get a few bottles of potions and drink them. Lion potions, courage potions, calming potions, etc., you can get them in any way in big cities. You can solve these troubles by drinking them."

Kil was thinking secretly, so he asked, "Are they expensive? These potions are expensive."

"If you ask me, I don't know. Anyway, I've never drank any of the potions in the family, and I don't know how much I spent on them. Haha, maybe it's free of charge. Anyway, I haven't seen any of the family's knights. A man who came back from defeating bandits drank it and my father asked for money."

Kil's eyes narrowed, and then he realized one thing. The problem that he was suffering from was obviously a problem that other knights often encountered. So the noble families in these places obviously had prepared solutions. .

Although the Sass family has unique spells on their armor to resist the invasion of resentful spirits, common general methods must be available. After all, Sass County is not the only two family knights in the Sass family.

Other loyal knights who were enfeoffed obviously had to be dealt with in some common ways.

Thinking of this, Kil no longer hesitated and said directly: "Bell, regarding the crusade against the flesh demon that you proposed before, I think we can have a detailed discussion here."

"oh?"

Bell turned his face in surprise. He was not an idiot. He rolled his eyes and figured out something: "What potion do you want?"

"Do you have any medicine in your family that can cure the resentful souls after killing too many people?"

Kiel also asked directly and directly.

"I have to go home and take a look at this. All these things at home are in the hands of one of my elders." Bell's answer was ambiguous and he did not give a clear answer.

Kil exhaled and stood up: "Then let's wait until we get back."

"By the way, Kil, you ask this, how long has it been since you had a good rest?" Bell asked.

"Hmph, I have enough energy. I can fight ten more monsters like that just now!"

-

The lumberjacks had already done it twice, so they were very skilled at their work. Even though Kiel and the others spent a lot of time exterminating the parasitic monsters lurking in the lumberyard, all this wasted time was wasted by Kiel's lumberjacks. The soldiers fought back.

When the sun was still hanging on the horizon, the fully loaded convoy had already started to return.

Except for the baronet's heir, the clergy, and one wounded soldier, the other soldiers and woodmen followed the loaded carriage back on foot.

The wheels rattled, rutting the dry dirt road and bringing up clouds of dust.

Perhaps because the monsters were frightened, the journey back to the town was calm and there was not a single parasitic monster blocking the road. This made Kil, who was patrolling on horseback, a little bored, so he had to discuss the plan to counterattack the flesh demon with Bell along the way.

Of course, it was just a discussion, and Kiir did not say whether or when he would join.

The heir to the baron did not ask Kiel whether or when he would join. The two of them discussed everything from the composition and size of the counterattack team to the location of the monster's lair, the number of monsters, and the timing of the counterattack.

Soon, Ye Mei Town arrived.

-

It was already dark when we returned to Yemei Town. It gets dark very quickly in mountainous areas. The dusk sun provided sufficient illumination one moment, but hid behind the mountains the next, and shadows instantly enveloped the entire land.

Even a town with open areas like Yemei Town is the same.

"The Western Province is different."

Gere pointed to the direction of the horizon and described to Bell the scenes he had seen.

"The earth is flat and there are no mountains to block it in the distance. The sun will stay very close to the ground, and most of the sky will still be bright at this time. Even if the sun completely sets below the horizon, as long as there are a few clouds high in the sky, They are like reflectors hanging in the sky, reflecting the sunlight blocked by the earth. It gets dark very late, and it is the same the next day. Before the sun rises from the ground, the earth It’s getting brighter!”

“It’s such a wide open world!”

Bell admired that it was difficult for a native of the southern province to imagine such a scene.

"The people there must be very wealthy, right? After all, they spend more time working every day than people in other places."

Keir chuckled: "That's not the case. Every place has its advantages, and naturally it has its troubles. The overly open land means that villages and towns there must be built along trade routes, and places far away from trade routes are It’s not safe. There’s no natural barrier to safety.”

"I know this. The family's territory is surrounded by mountains. There is only one route out, which is the trade route northwest of the town."

The two talked and led the team through the passage guarded by Kiel's refugee team.

With the friendship of fighting together in the afternoon, Bell invited Kiel to have dinner at his house in the evening, and Kiel nodded in agreement.

The loggers stopped to eat at the camp of the refugee team, while the convoy continued along the town wall and entered the town from the southwest gate.

Learning from yesterday's experience, when the convoy was about to enter the town this time, the town arranged in advance hundreds of town guards to guard outside the southwest gate to isolate people from outside the town who might cause trouble and help the convoy **** the full load of firewood. Enter the town.

As soon as they entered Yemei Town, a cavalryman from the Sasse family handed the horse to Bell. Bell immediately got on the horse and headed to the Sasse family mansion in the center of the town together with Kil, who was riding a blood-licking grass.

-

"Look, this is it."

After a simple meal, many people from the town were waiting in the lobby of the Saas family to meet Bell. But in the name of tidying up his appearance, Bell spared a short period of time to ask for a bottle of potion from the family elders.

At this time, he slid the bottle of potion along the smooth wooden table to Kil, who took it and held it in his hand for observation.

As soon as he got it, Kil could clearly feel that the potion was heavy. At first glance, I realized that the brass bottle, which is half the size of a palm, does not have a large capacity. It is because the bottle is made too strong and thick.

This is a metal bottle made of brass, just big enough to be held in one hand. Due to the material, the bottle is not light. The upper end is a rotating bottle cap with a complicated opening method, with engraved lines, numbers, and symbols.

It doesn't look like it can be opened easily.

The bottle is narrow at the top and wide at the bottom, and the overall shape is a steep trapezoid. It looks like an olive when viewed from the side. The front is delicately carved with the appearance of a lion, stepping on prey and roaring to the sky. On the back is a knight in armor, and this knight is holding a bottle of potion, pretending to drink it.

On the upper part of the front and back patterns, there is a word engraved in a circle: [Lion].

Obviously, this bottle of potion is a potion called [Lion].

Shaking the bottle, Kil could feel the brisk liquid sloshing in the bottle, UU Reading www. uukanshu.net Looking at the bottom of the bottle, Keel found that there was a sentence carved on the bottom of the bottle.

However, this sentence was written in aristocratic language, and Keir could not understand it.

"There's writing at the bottom. What does it say?"

Kiel returned the potion to Bell. The baron heir picked it up and looked at it. He said with a smile: "If the pharmacist left it, after drinking the potion, you can refill it with the bottle at 30% off."

"That's not bad."

"But who needs to drink these potions all day long? You know, potions have a shelf life. It is not strong wine or grape wine. The longer it is left, the more mellow it will be. Generally, after the potion is made, it must be used within one or two years. . What the pharmacist said is to ask you to spend money at his place again!"

Having said this, Bell pushed the potion to Kil again: "Here you go, Kil."

Kil was no longer polite. The two talked about this when they came back. If Bell could get the potion that Kil needed, Kil would have to participate in Bell's battle against the flesh demon.

"How do I open it?"

Keir looked at the mechanism on the top of the bottle to rotate the cap and asked Bell.

"Don't be fooled. Just twist the bottle cap and pull it out. It's that simple. This is a bottle of [Lion Potion] my father left for me before he left. The switch has already been unlocked. You can use it directly by unscrewing it. .”

After hearing this, Keir opened the bottle smoothly, and then took a sniff. A strong mint fragrance came out from the bottle. The smell was so strong that the whole room was soon filled with the fragrance of mint.

"Then I'll drink it."

"Drink yours. Don't forget, after the matter in Changmai Village is resolved, you have to come and help me."

Kil nodded and drank the potion in one gulp.
