Chapter 110 Abyss Lord
Chapter 110 Abyss Lord (Part 1)
"It's my friend, come with me," Lynn said, pointing to the Fly Demon and the Brute Demon beside him.
"No, you can go down alone," Dai said.
"You, a wizard, are afraid of a half-elf like me?" Dao scoffed. "Besides, it's so tall, it'd probably tear my castle down if it tried to climb the stairs."
Finally, Lynn followed Dao down alone, through the winding staircase.
Finally, we arrived at the castle's dungeon. It was brightly lit, with candles everywhere, making it rather warm. In the center was a pool with a strangely shaped stone in the middle.
The stone is irregular in shape, and from a distance it looks like a piece of incredibly smooth, multicolored glass.
However, on its surface, some blank areas look like white meat that has been sitting for an unknown amount of time. The simultaneous appearance of two completely opposite states on one object looks extremely strange.
Some researchers dressed in linen robes were carefully pouring a specially prepared liquid onto the white flesh area. When the liquid was splashed on the surface, the moist parts of the white flesh would shimmer with iridescent light, but as the liquid evaporated, it would turn back into white flesh. On the exposed white flesh, researchers were carefully scraping off the powder with small scrapers.
"Is this the result of your research?" Lynn asked.
"To be precise, we've been studying it all along," Dai said.
"Twenty years ago, a meteor fell from the sky and landed in a village. When the kingdom's patrol later discovered the village, there was no living thing left in it; all the creatures had been transformed into wax figures."
"At first, this piece of flesh was very unstable, turning an entire village into wax figures," Dai recounted. "Later, we secretly sent people to bring it back and then sent people to study it. We discovered that any creature that directly came into contact with or came into contact with it would turn into a wax figure."
"After further research, they discovered that this piece of flesh possesses an extremely strong assimilation ability, capable of assimilating other substances into wax figures, and its defensive capabilities are terrifying, able to absorb all magic."
"But it also has a weakness, which is that when it comes into contact with water, this property of turning into a wax figure will temporarily disappear, but it will also become incredibly hard. In its hardened state, its ability to absorb magic will not disappear," Dai said.
"So they painstakingly researched for twenty years and finally concocted a special liquid. This liquid can temporarily neutralize its infectious properties and preserve it for a long time. It contains some of its powder; simply applying it to the body will grant the affected warrior immunity to magic for five hours, but after five hours they will all turn into wax figures," Dai said, looking at Lynn. "Do you dare take it?"
"Yes." Lynn was very interested in the lump of white meat.
No wizard could refuse such research material.
"These are the formulas for two liquids. The first is the liquid formula I just mentioned that can be applied to the surface of a warrior's body. The other is a liquid that can stay on its surface for a long time, keeping it moist. If it dries out, it will automatically corrode nearby objects, turning them into wax figures that it will then devour, and its size will continue to grow," Dai said.
"Did that wizard know of its existence?" Lynn asked after a moment of contemplation.
"He doesn't know, I didn't tell him," Dai said.
Harlem doesn't know?
Did he genuinely not know, or did he know but pretend not to?
Lynn felt that the wizard had many tricks up her sleeve, and perhaps Dae's concealment was just her own belief that she was good at hiding.
But Lynn didn't say it.
"I've heard that the spells and magic you wizards use are very similar. I'm curious if your wizards' spells can also harm it." Daio, standing to the side, looked excited, as if he was looking forward to seeing this.
Lynn couldn't help but chuckle to himself. The essence of a wizard's magic lies in thoroughly analyzing the structure of the spell, which is why it is called a spell, not magic.
Not only are they more powerful, but their greatest strength lies in their ability to evolve. Even if there are no suitable spells available, wizards can create entirely new spells by studying the nature of things. This is what makes wizards so terrifying.
Lynn said, "Then I'll take it."
Lynn took the two recipes from Daio, as well as several buckets of prepared liquid.
Lynn checked the recipe; the materials needed to keep the liquid moist were all common and could be bought even in Demon City.
However, Dao still gifted Lynn a batch of magic grass seeds.
After confirming that the surface of the object was completely coated with liquid to maintain its glassy state, Lynn placed it into the spatial ornaments.
As it was placed into the spatial ornament, Lynn breathed a sigh of relief. Since it could be placed into the spatial ornament, it meant that this thing was not a living being.
After Lynn left, Davos summoned guards and had all the researchers in the basement executed.
As Lynn stepped out of the stairs and looked at the Iron-Blooded Queen beside him, he couldn't help but speak.
"I have one more thing I need to trouble Your Majesty with."
"Speak."
"I would like to make a copy of the knowledge in your kingdom's library," Lynn said.
"The library? You can take any books you want from there," the Iron Queen said nonchalantly.
"But can you do me a favor?" Dai said.
"Please speak, Your Majesty."
"I'm giving you all this knowledge, but I have a daughter, and out of a mother's selfishness, I don't think she should be buried with the kingdom," Dai said.
After a pause, Dai said, "As long as she lives, that's enough. As long as she can live peacefully as a civilian, that's fine."
Lynn nodded. "Okay."
He would refuse if it were about taking her in as a student, because it would be too troublesome. But if it were just about letting him take a princess away and let her live as a commoner, that wouldn't be difficult.
There are many places on the continent of God's Annihilation. Even if the Demon City is no good, there are other human settlements.
Soon a little girl was brought over.
The little girl looked about five or six years old. She was very cute, with long dark green hair, wearing a white princess dress, and had some elven blood.
Lynn hid the little girl in the alchemy lab. The little girl was very well-behaved, neither resisting nor refusing. She just took one last, reluctant look at the Iron Queen before being taken away.
After leaving the castle, Lynn and the Fly Demon, led by Dao's personal guard, headed to the library.
Lynn and his group took all the books from the library.
When Lynn and his group came out, the entire city of Bailuo was already engulfed in war.
Demons kept coming from afar, and the more people died here, the stronger the stench of blood and death became.
The more demons are attracted, the more vicious cycles are created.
Lynn tried to upload the books, but was told that this knowledge was already backed up on the Wizarding Network, so it had no merit value.
Just as the Fly Demon emerged from the library, it spotted a Balrog charging toward the castle from afar.
"A demon has gone to the castle," the Fly Demon said.
Suddenly, a flag was raised above the castle walls.
Lynn's pupils contracted slightly when he saw the flag, because it clearly bore the emblem of the Abyss Wizarding Academy. Moreover, judging from the unique magical ripples on it, it was not a replica, but something that had been prepared in advance.
Upon seeing this flag, the Balrog, who had originally intended to go to the castle, had to stop in his tracks and remained suspended in mid-air for several seconds before turning around and wreaking havoc in Bailudu.
The cacophony of screams from the city walls contrasted sharply with the silence inside the castle.
So Dai'e is also involved in the Abyss Wizard Academy? She didn't say she refused to cooperate with them in conquering the kingdom. Yes, she just resolutely refused to start a war, but she didn't say she refused to cooperate, otherwise how could she sit comfortably in this position?
Perhaps not many people were involved; only she and a small number of her confidants knew that the other citizens were likely treated as expendable pawns.
Through their brief encounter, Lynn discovered that Dai was a woman with strong purpose and execution skills.
She might be planning something famous, but that has nothing to do with Lynn anymore.
Because there are more and more demons here, and Lynn's current experiments do not require souls and flesh, and he did not bring any tools to preserve souls and keep flesh fresh, there is not much point in him staying here.
Lynn and the Fly Demon left Bailudu. In the following days, the Fly Demon summoned a Gold-Eating Demon, and then he and Lynn searched for mineral veins in the wilderness.
In the end, they actually found a small yellow eyestone mine. Lynn summoned Iron Serpent No. 1 to dig for ore underground, while the Fly Demon summoned some lesser demons to act as laborers and miners.
After working on it for almost half a month, they completely cleaned up this small yellow eye stone vein.
Two hundred tons of raw yellow eye stone ore were mined, which is 200000 kg. The raw ore contains about 10-20% yellow eye stone, which is relatively low. On the market, 10 kg of yellow eye stone is worth 1 magic stone.
If all the yellow-eyed ore inside could be extracted, it would be a windfall worth three or four thousand magic stones.
In the end, Lynn spent two thousand magic stones to buy this batch of raw yellow eyestone ore from the Fly Demon, filling all his personal storage items to the brim.
Having made a fortune, the two continued searching for mineral veins in the wilderness when suddenly the ground beneath their feet trembled violently.
Even the clouds floating in the sky were shaken.
"It wasn't an earthquake, the whole world just shook." The fly demon stopped in its tracks, its antennae trembling uneasily.
Lynn looked up and saw that the density of the wizarding network in the sky was nearly ten times greater than it had been at the beginning.
There's something over there.
In a very distant place, a colossal black beam of light pierced through the heavens and earth in an instant.
The white sea of clouds was visibly turned black.
Rumble~
The air was filled with a deafening roar.
Like shattered glass, from the horizon, a dense abyssal aura surged greedily into this world like a rolling tide.
In a daze, Lynn seemed to hear a hymn of praise coming from the end of the void, as if the entire abyss was welcoming the new world to join.
