Almighty Alchemist

"ah!!!"

With a loud roar, the boy in the big iron cage tore the sharp-toothed dog in two.

Blood rained all over the sky and fluttered on his body one after another, and that blazing red rippled out endless power in his body.

It finally worked.

At the moment of life and death.

Gong Hao couldn't remember how many times he had experienced the moment of life and death these days. In just eighteen days, it was like fighting eighteen years of war.

Lancelot really did what he said, even in Gong Hao's most dangerous moment, he would not rescue him.

Because this path is his own choice.

It's not that one can comprehend the use of grudge after surviving a near-death.

At the very beginning, fear was like a mountain that overwhelmed everything, and Gong Hao even completely forgot to use grudge to defeat the opponent, but relied on brute force to contend with the opponent. That's how he killed the dire wolf. He crushed the wolf's head with his fists, and the wolf's claws slashed deeply into his lower abdomen.

Lancelot waited in front of the iron cage with the potion.

Before Gong Hao came out by himself, he would never give him medicine.

Practicing martial arts in the alchemy castle is indeed beneficial, and it can be healed immediately after being injured. Although Lancelot complained about this: "A servant is not worth the price of a bottle of recovery potion, if I don't lack a good cook...these are all my private goods."

Gong Hao felt that what he said was against his will, he could even feel that Lancelot liked him, it might be because of his superior arrogance that made him unwilling to admit it. Otherwise, he would not finally agree to teach Gong Hao the use of Dou Qi and give him this good medicine again and again.

And for Lancelot, it was indeed rare for him to see a young man willing to endure such hardships without fear of threats. Once he asked Gong Hao: "Isn't the reason why you practice fighting qi is that you don't want to die at the mouth of a poisonous python? But now you are risking your life to fight these monsters? You must know that each of them is stronger than you, and you win every time with thrills and luck. If one day you fall into a cage and can't get out... I think you might as well not practice, at least you don't have to worry about death for a month."

Gong Hao replied: "Death because of pursuit is of course different from dying passively and helplessly."

Lancelot was very satisfied with his answer, and the force of administering the medicine became a little stronger, causing Gong Hao to grin his teeth in pain.

After killing the dire wolf that time, Gong Hao gradually learned to face fear. As he fought on and on, he began to learn how to remain calm in the heat of battle and how to achieve the greatest victory with the least cost.

The most important thing is how to try to use vindictiveness to deal with the enemy in battle instead of relying on brute force.

Today, before the sharp-toothed dog tore his throat, he finally felt the grudge in his body, which had been disobedient all along, rushing towards his arm according to his instructions. Not only did his hand gain great strength in an instant, but even a faint luster appeared on his arm.

It was this bit of luster that made his skin hard, and the fangs that could pierce even his bones in the end just pierced a big hole in it. At the same time, he grabbed the tusk dog's legs and tore it apart.

Seeing this scene, Lancelot said with satisfaction: "Very well, congratulations, you already have the most basic way to use battle qi. From today on, all you have to do is to cultivate and skillfully use it. As for the others, I won't teach you any more."

At that time, Gong Hao could not hear what Lancelot said. He was completely exhausted, and lying in the cage, he felt that even if he wanted to move a finger, it was difficult for him.

After several days of intensive training, the beautiful, cute, blond boy who was like a doll that all women coveted had gradually disappeared, replaced by a new strong boy.

There was a scar on his handsome face, which was left when he was attacked by the dire wolf.

His whole body, chest, back, and back, were full of bites and scratches from monsters.

There was even a terrifying scar on his throat, where his trachea was almost cut off. . . . . .

However, all the adventures and hard work finally paid off. Now lying on the ground, he could even clearly feel the grudge in his body swimming in his body, recovering his exhausted physical strength.

"One last thing to remind you: what you are facing is actually only the lowest level of monsters. Their intelligence is low, and they rely entirely on instinct to attack. There are almost no other attack methods except pounce and bite. This is the real reason why you can use the weak to defeat the strong... I noticed that you have started to adopt a targeted style of play later on. You know how to observe their actions and make timely dodges. It seems that your parry and evasion training class was not in vain. But advanced monsters have relative wisdom, and they have more attack methods. Some of them can use talent methods Therefore, if you want to deal with the spotted poison python, you still have to be very careful, even though most of its abilities are sealed, it still has a certain amount of wisdom. If you dare to underestimate it, you will still die."

Speaking of this, Lancelot suddenly sighed: "In fact, monsters are always just beasts. No matter how smart a monster is, it is impossible to be smarter than a human. Therefore, only humans are the most terrible opponents. Boy, do it yourself."

With that said, he turned back and entered the cabin.

Looking at the sky leisurely, Gong Hao took a long breath, and a few tears dripped from the corners of his eyes.

A month passed quickly.

No matter how hard the training is, the work cannot be delayed.

Gong Hao did not affect his work because of the hard training at the lakeside this month, he has not forgotten the meaning and purpose of all this.

Fortunately, the existence of vindictiveness is still very useful. You just need to sleep and wake up the next day full of energy.

When it was nearly a month, Lancelot decided in advance not to help Gong Hao get the saliva of the spotted poisonous python, because he was able to subdue the poisonous python as early as the moment Gong Hao mastered the use of battle qi.

However, Gong Hao did not stop practicing because of this. Quite the contrary, he continued to prepare meals for Lancelot every day, and then trained himself in the methods Lancelot taught him. The strongest talent for becoming an excellent warrior is hard work, this is what Lancelot told him, and Gong Hao always sticks to it.

Although Lancelot was unwilling to teach him new things, Gong Hao found that as long as he followed the method taught by Lancelot, at least the fighting energy in his body would become stronger and more refined.

His strength was getting stronger and stronger, and his appetite was getting better and better.

"My scars faded?" Facing the lake today, Gong Hao accidentally looked at his face, and found that the scars on his face were getting lighter and weaker.

"It's nothing unusual. The existence of battle qi not only provides warriors with strong combat power, but also strengthens the body and increases people's recovery ability. You have practiced for almost a month, and the battle qi in your body is taking shape. If you can't even heal this small scar, then don't we warriors have to wait to die as soon as we are injured?"

Another month has passed in the blink of an eye.

Gong Hao sighed.

It has been two months since I came to Purgatory Island.

The days fly by so fast.

Tomorrow... Tomorrow is the day when the Liberty arrives.

Tomorrow, Andrew will bring another group of servants over, and send another group of people away...

Thinking of this, he bowed to Lancelot: "Lord Lancelot, I may have to deliver goods at the port tomorrow, so I can't come here."

"It seems that you are quite busy. You have to manage the flowers and plants in the 13th area, and you have to keep records for the library, and you have to send me a list. If you have nothing to do, you have to do things for other servants, and you have to practice fighting spirit... You still have to go to the port to deliver goods? You really can't stay idle."

Lancelot's tone was full of sarcasm.

"You know that I once worked as a handyman in Baron Harden's mansion. The baron told me that as long as people work hard, there will always be rewards. So I work hard, hoping to make you adults think of me differently."

"It's a very straightforward reason, but not every effort can get the desired result."

"It's better than not working hard and waiting to regret." Gong Hao replied respectfully.

———————————————

When the Liberty entered the port this time, the black-robed mage Erdoris did not come, but the golden-armored warrior Chakle was still accompanying the ship.

After Chakle took the newcomers off the ship, Gong Hao and other servants carried the big boxes containing the puppet warriors onto the ship one by one. These boxes are extremely heavy, and they consume a lot of physical strength for the teenagers. Fortunately, Gong Hao's strength has greatly increased after practicing Dou Qi, so he can lift a box up by himself.

Returning to the Liberty, Gong Hao felt quite emotional.

If possible, he really wanted to give up searching for that secret and leave by boat.

Unfortunately, it's just a dream after all.

"Hey, you lowly servants, hurry up and bring everything up!" a guard yelled at the servants. He turned his head and said to his companion beside him, "I really don't want to stay in this stinking place for a second. I really don't understand how these people survive here."

Gong Hao put down his suitcase, and said to the guard, "My lord."

"What's the matter?" The whining guard glared at Gong Hao.

Gong Hao said politely: "It's like this. Everyone on Purgatory Island will wear a kind of leaf. This kind of leaf has a good smell absorption effect. You know that smell is actually a kind of air particle. Just bring a piece of this kind of leaf, and it can keep you away from the stench for a period of time."

"Is it true?" The guard's eyes widened.

Gong Hao took out a few leaves from his body: "It happens that I have some on me, you can try it."

A guard took the leaf, took a long breath, and shouted, "Oh, my God, I never thought that I could breathe fresh air in the sea of ​​death. The alchemist is really amazing."

Several guards took the leaves one after another.

When Gong Hao came here by boat, he often heard complaints from the guards. They said that the air in the sea of ​​death was suffocating.

This time he came prepared and easily won the favor of the guards.

Gong Hao immediately whispered: "Please keep your voice down, please? These leaves are not easy to get, they are all magic plants, and I happen to be the servant in charge of taking care of these plants, so I can get some. If I let others know, and they all ask me for it... It will make me very embarrassed."

A guard immediately smiled and said, "Okay, I see, little guy, thank you so much. So how long will these leaves last?"

"It lasts for a month at most, and then it dies."

"So can you send us leaves every month?"

"I can try. I came to Purgatory Island two months ago. I remembered you when I was on the Liberty. You are good people and took care of me, so I want to repay you."

Looking after a servant? Is there such a thing? Several guards looked at each other, who knew who did it, but in this case, it would be best.

Gong Hao continued: "Then I will fight for it every month from now on, but I don't know if you are the ones who come every time. You know that I don't want to give them to others, but once the leaves are picked, it is impossible to return them to the tree."

A guard immediately said, "Of course, it's us every time."

"Will no other ship enter Lianhe Island?" Gong Hao's question was justified.

The guard looked around and found that no one was paying attention to them, then said softly: "You know, boy, the existence of Purgatory Island is a big secret of the empire. The best way to keep a secret is as few people know as possible. So except for the people on the Liberty, no one knows about Purgatory Island, and of course no other ships will come here."

Gong Hao lowered his head: "Okay, I understand, thank you sir."

No ship can come to Lian Lian except the Liberty. But Liberty is not responsible for taking people away.

For twenty years, they have been sending people off to the island non-stop for twenty years, but not a single ship has sent people away.

They were on this island, they must be somewhere on the island.

They have always existed...

They must be found!

Gong Hao roared in his heart.

Another guard interrupted Gong Hao's train of thought: "Boy, for the sake of helping us, let me give you some advice. You must have worked hard to survive on Purgatory Island for two months, right? Listen to me, don't listen to the nonsense of those alchemists, and don't be taken to other places by that devil Andrew because of laziness. Work hard, and you have to stand up no matter how hard it is, understand?"

For the sake of their noses, several guards did not hesitate to reveal a little "secret".

"Thank you adults for your advice, I think maybe when you come next time, I will have some other small gifts for you." Gong Hao said hurriedly.

Several guards were overjoyed: "Are you serious? Boy."

"Of course, you have to know that this is Purgatory Island, it's impossible for everything to be strictly guarded." Gong Hao said, looking around, and then said softly: "I heard that some things can be sold for a lot of money."

"If you can get it, we will never treat you badly."

"Thank you, my lord. In fact, I don't have any other requirements. I just hope that the lords can bring some local specialties from their hometown in the future. You must know that there is nothing interesting and delicious on Lianhe Island."

"Okay boy, as a reward for you, what do you want next month? We can bring it for you."

"How about some energy spars? I can do many things with them. But I can't use the spars on the island at will."

"It's a small matter if you'll give us a shipment that satisfies us next month."

"I promise."

"Then we promise."

The Liberty departed, carrying its cargo, and going as it came.

Gong Hao watched the Liberty gradually disappear by the sea, and there was a trace of melancholy, anger, and pain in his eyes.
