Chapter 99: Is the Tiangong nuclear bomb nearby?
The moment he stepped into the "Alchemist", Li Yu felt the amazing transformation of his body and his newly acquired extraordinary skills.
First of all, the body. The body of a Dantu is not weak, but it is far inferior to the Dharma body of a Taoist priest. In addition to the doubling of attributes such as strength, self-healing, poison resistance, and drug resistance, it also has the added ability to resist negative states and pollution, as well as powerful inspiration.
Even if he did not activate the Dan Fire at this moment, it would take ten times as long as before for the blood rust virus in the air to invade.
Then comes the strange arts!
Li Yu's original three skills of alchemy, medicine and medicinal diet were all greatly enhanced.
For example, by taking a certain technique, Li Yu no longer needs to use his tongue. He can "taste" the taste of the blood rust virus through the pores of his skin, and its strange properties and detoxification direction also emerge faintly.
Of course, he also acquired new special skills.
They are: [Evil Words], [God Playing].
They are all very easy to understand and extremely useful techniques.
The former can form a special force field after Li Yu opens his mouth. People who hear his voice will be influenced by it and will choose to believe it involuntarily. If they are ordinary people with weak resistance, no matter how outrageous Li Yu's words are, they will still listen to him.
The latter allows him to act as a practitioner of other sequences. For example, the nine pills he swallowed can only act as an appearance and do not possess real power, unless he continues to swallow pills for assistance. Then the effect will far exceed the previous one and he can achieve perfect acting.
To put it bluntly, it is exactly these eight words "spreading evil words to confuse the people" and "playing tricks".
And the next moment, he used it directly.
The effectiveness of [Furnace Refining Soup] is truly amazing.
The more than a thousand people who were attracted to buy the drink returned to normal and reacted after drinking it.
This soup is effective but only lasts for one day.
What happens after that day?
Who knows when help will come for Hallownest, or if it will come at all?
So these people did not leave, but surrounded Li Yu, asking him to continue to boil more furnace refining soup.
At the same time, they tacitly blocked the news.
More than a thousand people gathered, including some inferior practitioners. With the courage of the crowd, they only asked Li Yu to lower the price at first.
Later, when the commotion started, some ignorant people started shouting that it should be free, otherwise they would demolish Li Yu's house and kill him.
Such rapid changes!
Li Yu saw it with his own eyes and was shocked.
Fortunately, he was not too surprised. It was normal in Wanfu City.
This is human nature. I believe that even in the Three Kingdoms, if it were really doomsday, the residents would not be much better off.
However, now that Li Yu has been promoted to a "alchemist", he naturally has no interest in continuing to sell the body-refining soup, even though he can make a lot of money from it.
But he already knew it now!
When you are at sequence seven or below, money is still of great use.
Anything higher is useless.
The higher the sequence, the more terrifying the power, and the secret medicine formula cannot be bought with money.
"It's a bit out of control to make such a big fuss. We can't sell soup anymore."
"That's it."
After making up his mind, Li Yu took action immediately.
His face turned visibly pale, and the aura he exuded was extremely weak. He spoke at the same time:
"My fellow neighbors, it's not that I don't want to make medicine for you, it's just that I can't do it."
"These medicines have used up all my spiritual energy. I have used up all my forbidden magic. It will take at least two or three days to recover, and at most half a month. How about you wait for me a little longer?"
"During this period, no information about me can be leaked."
"Everyone, please disperse."
Li Yu's disguise and his evasive remarks were not very clever.
Normally, few people would listen.
But at this moment, a strange scene happened: the more than a thousand ordinary people in the neighborhood agreed with a smile when they heard what he said, and then dispersed obediently. The remaining second-rate practitioners did not hold on for too long, and after hearing the last sentence, they all completely accepted Li Yu's words and followed him away.
A serious trouble that could have cost one's life was easily resolved by Li Yu, and on the surface, there was nothing unusual about it.
It's really weird and misleading.
Afterwards, Li Yu glanced at the shield from afar, as well as the lively crowd of onlookers outside Tianjifang.
He frowned slightly, then turned back to the house and dragged Hongdou directly to the alchemy room.
On the way, he shouted:
"Come on, come on, evaluate your combat power for me again."
"Can you kill me easily this time?"
……
When night fell again in Tianjifang, the door of the alchemy room in the butcher shop opened again.
Li Yu walked out with a satisfied look on his face. Behind him, in the scarlet steam with a strange fragrance, was a mechanical maid who was slowly putting away her chainsaw sword.
The subsequent assessment report came out of her mouth:
"Based on the battle results and the information provided by the master, when the master does not take the elixir to assist, Hongdou must exhaust his spiritual energy and enter a high-intensity fighting mode to barely kill the master... If the master takes the elixir, Hongdou will be killed by the master... As a mechanical body, Hongdou is immune to other abilities that the master is more proficient in, and has an over 50% deviation in his estimate of the master's combat power..."
"Hongdou suggests that the master stock up on as many related elixirs as possible. The richer the variety and the higher the level, the stronger the master's combat power will be."
"At the same time, the master has the second special skill [God-playing]. It is recommended that the master reduce the frequency of using it... Every time this skill is used, the chance of the master being noticed and killed by the unknown true god will increase."
"As for the new path sequence that the master will practice, according to its characteristic requirements, if he goes to the three countries of Qian, Li, and Jing, which are ruled by the six major orthodox sects, the efficiency will drop by 30% to 60%. If he stays in Wanfu City, the time to be promoted to the next sequence can be greatly shortened..."
Obviously, Hongdou's evolution and transformation were very obvious. This time, in addition to the battle conclusion, she also gave some additional training suggestions.
When Li Yu heard this, he felt that every one of them was very useful.
Even though he really wanted to leave Wanfu City!
But he also knew that the alchemist sequence was indeed progressing the fastest in a dangerous and complex place like Wanfu City.
"Let's take a step and see."
"There is still a big problem at hand. I don't know how [Holy Nest] will deal with Tianjifang."
"There are tens of thousands of people here, many of them practitioners, and there are also forces like the Rouge Society that are slightly inferior to the Three Saints Gang... For the overlord of District 1, this is a major asset that cannot be lost."
"Normally, they shouldn't just ignore it. The question is, can Hallownest detoxify once and for all?"
"If we delay it beyond tonight, I'm afraid there will be mass deaths."
It was just that Li Yu stood in the yard, looking up at the shield and deducing what would happen next.
The "rescue" he had expected came suddenly.
Ten huge steam airships with scarlet paint and a large and obvious Hallownest logo flew over from a distance.
There was constant roar along the way.
Even a fool could tell that the overlord of the southern region, Holy Nest, was finally going to rescue Tianjifang. The people who had watched the excitement during the day and dispersed, gathered outside the shield again.
Soon, ten airships arrived above the shield, and a gap appeared in the dome of the shield.
One after another, mechanical creations like "cannonballs" broke away from the bottom of the huge airship and smashed directly into Tianjifang.
This scene!
It scared a lot of people.
The people inside and outside the town all had horrible thoughts in their minds: "What is Holy Nest trying to do? They want to bombard Tianjifang with artillery fire. There is no way to detoxify, so they just kill all the people. Is Holy Nest crazy?"
Fortunately, the next moment, the sound of warning alerts rang out inside and outside Tianjifang.
"Attention all residents of Tianjifang! Please stay at home and don't move around. There is no need to panic."
"Holy Nest is releasing an antidote that will completely decompose the blood rust virus in all the citizens at once, leaving no sequelae."
"It's just the detoxification process, there will be some bearable pain."
"After half an incense stick, the shield will be cancelled."
"Repeat it! Please Tianjifang..."
As the announcement began to repeat.
All the bombs that fell to the ground exploded with bangs.
But, it has no power.
It just released a large amount of pale green smoke with a hissing sound, as if it had life, quickly filling the entire Tianjifang.
The old streets are naturally also covered.
As the green mist filled the butcher shop, Li Yu first smelled a sour smell like aged vinegar, followed by a faint corrosive smell. The blood rust virus, which was already rare in his body, was instantly decomposed and destroyed by the green mist.
The concentration of viruses in the air was dropping rapidly, and even the floating rust particles became larger and coarser, turning into "green copper sand" visible to the naked eye and falling down.
For a moment, green copper rain began to fall in Tianjifang.
The scene looks both strange and has a special beauty.
"Hmm? Is this really a permanent antidote?"
"Holy Nest, this is a bloody expense."
"I don't know what the ingredients are, but the effect is much better than my furnace refining medicine."
While Li Yu asked the question, he also turned to look at Hongdou.
With the mechanical maid's current intelligence, she should be able to respond immediately and analyze the composition of the tragic green mist.
But at this moment, what Li Yu saw was an extremely "vivid" look of surprise and surprise suddenly appearing on the maid's face.
What she said was not the answer Li Yu expected, but a strong warning without any reason:
"Owner!"
"An unknown danger has occurred. The source is a mechanical secret box that is suspected to be produced by the Tiangong Sect."
"It is speculated that the antidote released by the [Holy Nest] organization is a special biological key to this secret box. It will open automatically once it is touched."
"Drip drip!"
"A high-intensity danger has been detected, which will threaten the life of the owner..."
Before these mechanical sounds died down, Hongdou had already returned to the main house.
Li Yu followed closely behind. As soon as he entered the house, he saw Hongdou taking out the mechanical secret box that was temporarily hidden at the bottom of the box because the key could not be unlocked.
At this moment, this box is seamless, flawless, extremely exquisite and mysterious.
It was glowing red and opening on its own with a "clicking" sound.
But before Li Yu saw what was stored inside, he heard a terrifying announcement that frightened him to death:
"The biological key has been contacted and is being opened."
"Didi didi...!"
"Wrong location, wrong time, wrong person contacted... Starting the self-destruction program of [Small Tiangong Nuclear Bomb]..."
