Demon Hunter and His Hut - Chapter 739

Chapter 720

“Wow!”

The mist in the bathroom steamed, and a thin figure slowly emerged from the pool water soaked in green liquid.

Roger wiped the water stains off his face and only exposed his head to the air.

The deal with Joseph was finalized, and several carriages drove into the manor early the next morning. It was some common herbs that Joseph had sent as agreed.

Roger’s knowledge of alchemy is already extremely rich. The only thing he lacks now is the change in the name of the medicine and the specific ratio.

For normal people, this is an extremely long process, but with the hunter’s cabin, Roger quickly found a balance between different worlds.

The most important thing is that what he needs most is not the potion used to increase strength, but how to keep this body alive to the maximum.

There is water vapor in the bathroom, but in fact, it is not the liquid that evaporates because the temperature is too high. The temperature of the water in the bathroom is even below zero.

The air was filled with special agents added by Roger.

Roger also added something extremely special to the formula of this medicine.

From the lake of life on the edge of Elod’s world.

That thing existed deep in Roger’s soul, beside the hunter’s cabin, it turned into a pool of lake water.

But in fact it is no longer any substantial liquid, it should become a manifestation like the door of shadow and lantern.

It cannot be drunk directly, but under Roger’s control, a part of the power of the rules can be incorporated into ordinary clear water.

Even a trivial trace can be regarded as a deadly poison for ordinary people.

The color in the pool gradually faded, and the mist that filled the air slowly disappeared. Roger stood up, revealing his thin and pale body.

A vaguely large hole appeared in his abdomen, the blood color was lost at the edge of the wound, and the internal organs could even be seen.

Taking the needle and thread next to him casually, Roger sews the wound well.

Liquid can enter the body through the wound, improving the absorption capacity of the medicine in a disguised form.

With that insignificant bit of life lake, Roger completed the basic formula, and now the body he manipulates even has some body temperature.

If you are in contact with normal people, it will only make people feel strange and not overly surprised.

The formula needs to be perfected. This similar life breath can only last for a period of time, but the formulation of the medicine does not require any overly complicated herbs. The most important thing is the life lake.

After drying the water stains on his body, Roger slowly put on his clothes and left the bathroom.

“Sir, the kitchen is ready for dinner…”

Emily waited at the door.

“Send to my room in a while.”

Roger didn’t know how to enter the depths of the corridor and followed the stairs to the study.

There was no abnormality in the body, but the corpse was unable to absorb food. Roger didn’t want a pile of food to rot in his stomach, so he could only find ways to avoid any normal eating behavior.

“Yes.”

Emily replied in a low voice, glanced at Roger’s back, and then carefully stepped back.

After recovering from a serious illness, this once incomparably familiar figure made her feel a little strange, and she was still as thin as ever, but Emily always felt an incomparably suffocated feeling.

The electricity that symbolizes civilization has not yet appeared in this world, at least there is no sign of widespread popularity in the memory of this body.

But even in a world where productivity is lagging behind, there are ways for nobles to enjoy luxury and comfort that ordinary people cannot imagine.

The light was bright in the originally dim study, and the time came to fall, and it was getting darker sooner than usual. Roger did not sit by the desk, but leaned on the soft couch by the side, picked up the book at hand and flipped through it.

His gaze swept across, but in fact all his attention was concentrated deep in his consciousness.

“It’s very strange, it seems that there is an unknown force that has isolated the connection between me and the body.”

Roger thought about it. This was a problem he had discovered not long ago. He could feel that his body was very far away from the manor.

In the phantom of the hunter’s hut, in addition to the original three sword seal marks, there is also a brand new sword seal gradually taking shape.

“It’s really troublesome to have no body.”

With a low voice, Roger put down the book in his hand and flicked his finger lightly.

A seemingly simple movement contains at least eight unknown changes. In the process of movement changes, Roger also adjusts his soul power.

“The most basic zero and one.”

“It’s so simple and beautiful.”

The eyes became confused, even if it was only a little experience, the power of the Yaxie sword seal was far more powerful than the magic seal that Roger had practiced before.

In the process, his severely injured soul also showed signs of recovery.

“It’s rare good news.”

Although he couldn’t wait to get his body back right away, Roger did not rush into it. The world seemed very weird, which was fundamentally different from what he had experienced before.

It comes from the difference in the soul.

At this moment, Roger heard a sound of horseshoes coming from outside the manor, then the silhouettes of people shuttled, and after a tumult, they returned to silence.

He didn’t think much about it. It seemed that the carriage that went out to purchase goods happened to return to the manor. The manor where he was now had an excellent geographical location, backed by the mountains, and there was a river running through the territory near the manor.

Inside, there is a clear and open lake, which can be regarded as beautiful.

Roger secretly converted the units. Starting from the manor, he would be able to reach the nearby town in about ten kilometers.

Before the Anglo family declined, the small town used to be a dependent territory of the family, but it was deprived of the title due to its decline, and the territory was returned to the royal family.

Although the nobles in this world are hereditary, they will not be passed on forever. If there is no new contribution, the title will decrease over time and eventually lose everything.

Boom boom boom.

At this moment, a gentle female voice came from outside the door.

“Master, Fabre has just returned from the town. He brought back some gadgets you like and the latest newspaper.”

It was the housekeeper in the manor, and Roger noticed that her address of herself was completely different from that of Emily and others.

“newspaper?”

Roger suddenly became interested.

Before long, the neatly folded newspaper, exuding the smell of fresh ink, was taken to the study.

Sent with the newspaper, there are also a few strange-looking gadgets.

A thing that looks like a monocular telescope, and a delicate copper box.

Roger just fiddled with these things at will. After all, this is a small thing that the original owner of the body once liked. If he didn’t care at all, it would be a bit abnormal.

He didn’t notice. Seeing his lack of interest, the housekeeper standing by seemed to be relieved, and asked Roger if he needed tea to refresh himself, and then bowed and left.

“Lookout”

The newspaper was not thick, and the typesetting was a bit old-fashioned. When he opened it, Roger did not find information on marriage that resembled a good image and a good temperament.

In the original headline, bold fonts are marked with a line of eye-catching characters.

“Border conflict, friction may escalate!”

Roger glanced a few times, and the newspaper mentioned that a fortress on the border between the Kingdom of Thurwell and the Federal Republic of Taryn was suddenly attacked just a month ago.

It is said that a spy secretly detonated the gunpowder inside the base, causing large-scale explosions and riots, directly causing hundreds of casualties.

Roger’s Sever Kingdom is relatively traditional, and the royal family and nobles rule the country.

In comparison, the Taren Federation next to it also has nobles, but it does not have such a huge power as the Sever Kingdom.

With knowledge of the history of another world, Roger can see the cause of friction in this situation.

One is the traditional aristocracy, and the other is more like the emerging bourgeoisie.

In this case, contradictions are inevitable.

This time the fortress attack was like a fuse, which instantly escalated the already tense situation.

Some people in the kingdom even think that war is inevitable.

This report re-organized the development of events in the past month, from which Roger can understand the situation within the kingdom.

But he didn’t pay attention to this kind of thing, the most powerful transcendents always surpassed ordinary forces.

He always needs to pay attention to those few.

If it hadn’t been for the damage to his current strength, he might not have even taken a look at this kind of thing.

In addition to this major event that happened recently, the newspaper also recorded some other information, including lace news and some speculation.

It seems that no matter in any world, gossip is an indelible nature.

Shaking the newspaper in his hand, a slightly smaller single page fell from the folder.

Just pick it up, the handwriting on the paper is smaller and the layout is more chaotic.

Compared with the look in his own hands, this one is obviously too much.

The speculation on some gossip was exaggerated. There was only a report about attending a concert and it could be written as a detailed affair. The pen was so old-fashioned that even Roger couldn’t help but glance at it a few more times.

“Really novel.”

He shook the newspaper in his hand, and just about to throw it away, he suddenly noticed the speculation in an inconspicuous section in the corner.

“The frontier fortress attack has another secret. The so-called explosion was not organized by the espionage organization of the Federal Republic of Taryn. According to grapevine reports, the so-called explosion was only to conceal more terrifying secrets!”

“At the border between the Kingdom and the Federation is a discovery that shocked the world!”

Although the topic was eye-catching enough, the content inside was really empty. Roger didn’t care about it at first, but combined with the map in his mind, he determined the location of the fortress that was attacked.

Only then did he realize that the direction there was a little overlapped with his previous induction.

“strangeness.”

Frowning, Roger put down the newspaper in his hand.

The control over this body is getting deeper and deeper, and some of his small emotions can already be directly reflected in the body.

“Maybe I think too much.”

Leaving the study, Roger returned to his room, ignoring the food on the table. He stood in the middle of the room and took out the long sword for practice.

“Without the nourishment of the body, no matter how powerful the soul is, it has no root.”

The lake of life contaminated with the body can only barely be used to maintain the characteristics of a living person. The body and soul cannot establish a connection, making it even more difficult for Roger to recover.

The life lake water has a powerful effect, but it cannot be used to directly nourish the soul. A slight increase in the dose will bring terrible consequences to the corpse.

That thing can cause mutations in living people, and it will be even more terrifying when used on corpses.

“If you can grasp the Akxi sword seal initially, maybe you can use this power to nourish your soul. If you can use the shadow gate further, it will be much more convenient.”

The movements of his hands kept moving, and Roger controlled his body to move quickly.

…………

Empire.

In the splendid chamber, sat the great nobleman at the top of the power of the Sever Kingdom.

But at this moment, in the closed hall, these nobles who kept the so-called etiquette at all times were not much different from the citizens who had disputes in the tavern.

“War is impossible. War is never possible.”

A middle-aged man with a beautiful moustache shouted loudly.

“If a war is launched, who will pay for the huge war expenses?”

“Is it you Dguhn, or you Verlock?”

“Whoever wants to go, I absolutely disagree!”

“Everyone knows how barren the land bordering the fortress is. If we start a war, even if we can win, we pay more than we gain!”

“Do not hit?”

A cold snort came.

“The current situation is not what we say, because it is them, not us, who want to start the war. When we are all arguing here, the secret spies of the Federation may have penetrated into every corner of the kingdom.”

“how is this possible?”

“The federal economy can’t support a war!” someone retorted.

“That’s because there is not enough fatal temptation.”

“Boom!”

With a muffled hum, the conference hall immediately became quiet, and everyone subconsciously tightened their muscles and looked at the top position of the long table.

There is a golden throne that is more than twice the width of a normal person.

A swollen old man with white beard and hair was stuffed into the throne.

His skin is very thin and almost transparent, and the tiny blood vessels underneath can be clearly seen. His eyes are cloudy and he looks forward without focus.

It seems that even breathing is a very laborious task. The old man knocked on the table and made a dull crash, “This is a war that has to be waged.”

“After this war, we and the federation on the opposite side are destined to have only one remaining.”

“But before the war starts, there are more important things waiting for us to do around the borders and fortresses.”

“This matter is the reason for the war.”

After a long speech, the elderly Philip III paused for a while, but this time no one dared to interrupt him.

“One month ago, the border fortress was attacked. Of course, this is only an external statement.”

“In fact, we have indeed been attacked. The death toll is more than five times the announced number. It is not the federal spies and those extraordinary who attacked us, but…”

“A corpse!”

“No, you can’t say that!”

Philip III’s face showed a glow of excitement, “It is an empty shell without a soul, maybe it once belonged to a god!”

“Can you imagine, just falling freely, that body almost destroyed our fortress!”

His voice suddenly rose, “Tell me everyone!”

“Tell me a reason not to start a war!”

“We must bring that body from the border back to the royal city!”

“Now, does anyone object?”

After a long silence, a voice suddenly sounded.

“His Majesty the King, where is it?”

“In our hands?”

The breath of everyone was slightly choked.

“Yes, not here.”

Philip III shook his head, “It is indeed in the fortress, but it is deep underground!”
