Chapter 230 Medicine
Is the use of that finger a signal? Mr. K came so quickly? Or maybe he happened to be watching me nearby? Lumian's spirit tightened, and the fatigue after the battle seemed to have subsided a lot.
This gave him a new understanding of Mr. K's strength and added a little fear.
Retracting his gaze, Lumian picked up the "Fallen Mercury" first.
Its silver-black blade left several scars from burning and corrosion, which made Lumian wonder if it could still last until the end of the year.
After putting away the "Fallen Mercury", Lumian began to check the blood package and dissolved most of the two corpses.
They show visible signs of candlelight, slumped on the ground, and can give everyone who witnesses nightmares for a long time.
The clothing of the two corpses was highly corroded, as was most of the items on their bodies, including Haman's poisoned dagger and Castina's favorite axe.
Less affected were several specially made iron-colored medicine bottles with a metallic luster, although their surfaces showed obvious signs of corrosion, but they had not yet affected the liquid inside.
Lumian observed and found that there were four types of potion bottles, distinguished by the patterns etched on the bottle body: one was a tree, one was suspected to be a bear's face, one was spring water, and the other was a scorpion.
Harman and Castina each brought one bottle, leaving a total of eight bottles.
After Lumian gathered them together, he walked to the strange scythe that "Black Scorpion" Roger had just used, it was dark, sharp, and evil, neither as small as the wheat harvester's kind, easy to carry, and not as exaggerated as the giant scythe, unable to bring shock, only half a person tall.
As soon as Lumian touched the scythe with his right palm wearing black gloves, he felt that it extended out of illusory spikes, drilled into his flesh and blood, and sucked life little by little, cold and ruthless.
He quickly withdrew his right palm and found that life was no longer passing slowly.
I don't know if it's a magical item or an extraordinary weapon similar to "Fallen Mercury"...... How should this be taken away? Lumian fell into deep thought.
At this time, Franka has completed the arrangement and began channeling.
Lumian walked back to the body of "Black Scorpion" Roger with the eight potion bottles, and said to Franka through the "Spiritual Wall":
"Ask about the function of these things, and how to take away that scythe."
Franka nodded, looked at Roger's face that stood out in the last makeup mirror, and asked:
"What are the functions of the potion bottles on Haman and Castina, and how to identify them?"
Roger, who was pale, replied blankly and confusedly:
"The tree pattern is a 'bark potion' that makes your skin and muscles as tough as trees.
"The bear face pattern is a 'Fury Elixir' that allows you to burst out with power beyond normal.
"The spring water pattern is a 'healing potion' that can heal most traumas, make serious injuries lighter, and make minor injuries disappear.
"The scorpion pattern is 'scorpion venom', which is mainly applied to weapons, which can cause arrhythmias, breathing paralysis, and death in people who are harmed by it."
It's quite useful...... Franka secretly praised.
Her hidden blade needed such a bottle of "scorpion venom".
Franka continued to ask:
"How do you usually carry that sickle?"
"I have a larger wooden box in my study, quickly put it in it and you can take it away." Roger replied with a pale face and a cold expression.
Franka asked:
"Is that scythe a magical item or an extraordinary weapon, and what is its ability?"
"It's called 'Harvest Sacrifice', it's a weapon infected by the breath of gifts, with the characteristic of 'sharpness', and as long as it leaves a wound on the target and is stained with the corresponding blood, it can continue to suck the opponent's life." "Black Scorpion" Roger described the situation of the scythe in a daze.
Franka accurately grasped the time and turned the topic to more important things:
"Have you ever seen 'Mrs. Moon'? How do you usually keep in touch?"
Roger's pale and painful face became a little more vivid:
"I saw 'Lady Moon' in a wilderness, no, now it's 'Lady Moon', she sat in a unique carriage pulled by two devils, wearing a veil, which made me feel very sacred and maternal.
"Usually she came to me and asked me to suddenly enter that wilderness and give me orders.
"She gave me a green seed to place in the statue's abdominal cavity, which I could use to make emergency contacts if I was in danger.
"I don't need that seed now, as long as I recite her name completely, I can get her reply."
Can you respond to your honorific name? This character is a bit high...... Franka didn't ask what the honorific name of "Ms. Yue" was, for fear of being sensed by the other party.
She could guess what the answer was, but still asked a little curiously:
"Just now, why didn't you ask for help from 'Ms. Yue'?"
"Black Scorpion" Roger replied blankly:
"I can win."
You haven't come back to your senses before you die? Franka said with a "tsk":
"Why do you support Huge. Artois."
"It was 'Ms. Moon' who asked us to help him get elected." Roger replied with empty eyes, "She said, Huge. Artois is an enlightened enough person."
Enough enlightened people...... What does it mean? Franca found it difficult to understand this assessment.
When Franka was psychic "Black Scorpion" Roger, Lumian did not wait by his side, he walked into the study with the face that belonged to Arsay, and simply rummaged through valuable items.
He tried to open the door of the safe with half a piece of wire he carried with him, but failed.
He found only a wooden box suitable for the evil scythe in the study, and took it down the stairs to the basement with an open door.
It was very clean here, except for the stone platform where the statue was suspectedly placed.
Lumian searched for a while, and with the "hunter's" ability to observe the environment, he found a secret door.
There was a heavy sound of friction, he pushed open the secret door, and found that there was a corridor behind him, flanked by iron fences were cells surrounded by iron fences, and there were dozens or hundreds of people crowded in the cells, most of them looked like homeless people, as well as well-dressed gentlemen, young ladies and suspected lost children.
At this time, nearly a third of the captives were lying on the ground, their skin shriveled and dull, like skeletons better than humans.
They were no longer breathing, completely incontinent, and the stench filled the private prison.
Lumian's gaze swept over the trembling humans, and saw many sinister and eerie symbols on the ground beneath their feet, the walls behind them, and the iron fence in front of them.
No wonder the "sorcerer" is so strong on his home field...... Lumian suddenly realized.
Not only is it assisted by the "Magic Circle" full of revenants, but it can also draw other people's lives to replenish itself at any time!
Lumian held the wooden box with one arm, pulled out the revolver again, and pulled the trigger against the door of one of the cells.
With a bang, the iron lock was broken and fell to the ground.
After replenishing the revolver with ammunition, Lumian didn't even look at the imprisoned people, and moved forward step by step, destroying the iron locks of the rest of the cells in turn.
He then inserted the revolver back into his armpit gun pouch, turned his body, and left here, leaving behind a group of dazed and numb survivors.
When Lumian returned to the first floor, Franka had just finished channeling and lifted the "spiritual wall".
"Is there anything to gain?" Franka asked casually.
Lumian pointed to the wooden box sandwiched under his left arm:
"It should be used to hold that scythe. I couldn't open the safe. The servants here may have escaped to the second floor, or they might have gone to the garden in the back, but I didn't run into them."
"Don't worry about them, as believers in evil gods, once they lose their protection, they will be eliminated quickly, and we have made enough disguise to not be recognized by them." Franka nodded and said, "Go and pack the 'Harvest Festival', we will leave here now, yes, that scythe is called 'Harvest Festival'."
It didn't take long for Lumian to return to the body of Roger "Black Scorpion" with the scythe and handed the wooden box to Franka.
Then, he squatted down, tore off the bottom of his pajamas, and crumpled it into a ball, staining the blood here.
"What are you going to do?" Franka asked curiously.
Lumian did not look up, and replied succinctly:
"Some tips for the official extraordinary."
After saying that, he returned to the living room with a blood-stained cloth and wrote the words of Intis in messy strokes on the wall next to the statue of a woman with soft features:
"Great Mother".
After completing this matter, Lumian discarded the cloth and walked towards the door.
"Why is it a bit provocative......" Franka sighed and turned her body.
Behind her, clusters of black flames emerged, rising upwards, burning all kinds of traces and remnants of the dead spirits left by the two of them.
Immediately afterwards, Franca threw fluorescent powder, recited the "Invisibility" spell, and disappeared into the foyer area with a wooden box.
Lumian immediately pushed open the door and swaggered out of 126 Market Avenue.
He didn't close the door, letting the scene inside appear in front of passers-by:
Under the yellowish light of the gas wall lamp, a corpse lay against the foyer, surrounded by blood.
Lumian crossed the market avenue, constantly changing direction and returning to the alley where he had changed his clothes and disguised himself.
He simply cleaned up the makeup on his face and changed into his original clothes, no longer giving people the feeling that he was Arsai.
In the next second, Franka appeared wearing a hood and a black robe, took the "Ring of Punishment" from Lumian, and put it back in his purse.
The "witch" glanced at Arsai, a member of the Stinger Gang who was still in a coma, and said to Lumian, who was about to leave:
"Don't you deal with him?
"He knew that Ciel had stunned him, and the person who killed 'Black Scorpion' Roger was disguised as him."
Lumian didn't answer, he directly pulled out his revolver, turned his body halfway, and pulled the trigger on Arsai, who was wearing a blue and white striped shirt.
With two shots, the Stinger gang member trusted by Roger "Black Scorpion" was shot in the chest and lost his life.
Seeing that Lumian didn't care about anything and did whatever he proposed, Franka secretly shook her head, dealing with the remnants of the spirit body and the traces in the alley.
Then, she disappeared again, left here with Lumian, and returned to the second floor of the Breeze Ballroom by climbing the exterior wall.
When Lumian washed off the excess black on his hair with a special agent from Rentas, he really turned back into Charles. Dubois's appearance, Franka asked with a smile:
"Do you want this sickle? If not, I will sell it and divide the money I receive equally.
"Your 'provocateur' magic potion should be almost digested, and you have to prepare money and materials for promotion."
