Banner of the Evil God
Chapter 66
In the dense woods, chaotic sounds continued to sound.
In the last moment, there was the sound of trees breaking, in the next moment, there was the sound of metal colliding, and in the next moment, there was a loud collision, followed by the sound of water splashing.
In the dim light, three figures, one big and two small, were fighting fiercely.
The big one was naturally the terrifying giant snake, and the small ones were Lei and Steele.
Lei was the main fighter, and Steele was just an assistant.
Steele rushed back immediately after sensing the battle in the forest below. She tried hard to help, but soon found that with her martial arts, she could not help in the battle between Lei and the giant snake, but would even hinder them.
So she retreated to the second best, kept a relatively safe distance, and used her innate spellcasting ability to assist.
As a semi-holy spirit who failed to complete the transformation, she could cast a lot of innate spell abilities. Although there were few direct attacks, there were many that could be used for assistance - it was a coincidence that what she needed now was exactly the auxiliary spell.
Lei, who was assisted by Steele's spell, was immediately invigorated and his fighting power soared. He rejected Sui Xiong's suggestion of "I'll help" who was awakened, and swung his gun and sword like two balls of white light, fighting the giant snake evenly.
As time went on, Lei gradually gained the upper hand.
He found that although the giant snake was huge, powerful, and had a foul defense, its wisdom was not high.
Low wisdom means poor fighting skills. Lei gradually grasped the fighting habits of the giant snake with his rich experience accumulated from hundreds of battles. When the "rhythm" of the battle was completely under his control, the outcome of the battle was no longer suspenseful.
Of course, even so, it was very difficult to kill the giant snake. Lei fought hard for a long time, and finally killed the giant snake when dusk fell.
With a final wail, the giant snake's huge body collapsed on the ground and finally stopped moving. At this time, Lei was exhausted and even stood a little unsteady. Even Steele, who was just assisting in casting spells, was exhausted. She flapped her wings weakly and could not even fly.
"Thank you for your hard work." Sui Xiong cast a spell to freeze the corpse of the giant snake along with its blood to preserve these precious materials as much as possible. They were the spoils of war that Lei and Steele had fought hard for almost an afternoon. They were priceless, but they were definitely very rare.
"What are you going to do with this thing?" he asked. "Should I store it in the storage space I opened up first, and then sell it when we get to the Secret Tower Federation?"
"Whatever you want to do with it." Lei said weakly, "I need to find a place to camp first. I feel like my bones are about to fall apart."
"Me too." Steele rested for a while, took a few breaths, and finally recovered a little strength. He flapped his wings and flew up. "There is a stone mountain a little further ahead. Although it is not high, it is bare and has no grass, and there are no wild animals occupying it. For us, it is the best camping site."
Hearing that he could finally sleep on solid ground, Lei, who was originally exhausted, suddenly regained his spirits. He used his spear as a crutch and staggered to climb onto another floating disc - this disc was originally used by Sui Xiong to test the duration of his spells. Because the distance was a bit far, it was not destroyed in the battle. It came in handy at this moment.
"It's great to be able to rest!" Steele lamented, flying slowly in the air, leading the way.
Fortunately, the distance was not far. After about ten minutes, they arrived at the barren stone mountain.
The stones on this mountain are quite hard and the top of the mountain is very smooth, which can be regarded as a good camping site. However, in everyone's current state, it is really not suitable to camp in the wild, so Sui Xiong flipped through the information and found a spell commonly used by travelers, "Shelter Hut", and cast it.
The spell of Shelter Hut can create a hut out of thin air, with a bed, a fire, and simple toiletries in the hut. For travelers who are away from home, it is indeed a very convenient spell.
But the shortcomings of this spell are also obvious. First of all, it is a fictional creation. Sleeping in it cannot get a real "full rest" because it is an area isolated from the air, and effective prayers cannot be made in it. This means that neither the mage nor the priest can restore their spellcasting ability by resting in the shelter hut.
If this problem is still secondary, then another problem is a bit worse.
When you are in the shelter hut, you can't see the situation outside.
Moreover... this seemingly solid house, apart from being able to block the wind and rain, has basically no defense at all. A few wild wolves could have damaged it.
What does this mean? It means that resting in the shelter is completely defenseless!
Resting in the wild without defense is the same as seeking death!
So unless it is absolutely necessary, adventurers will not use this spell to help them rest. Even if they have to use it, they must arrange for people to take turns to guard outside to avoid being caught by monsters or enemies and dying in confusion.
Of course, there are also advanced spells that solve these problems. For example, there is a spell called "Sacred Residence", which can create a stone chamber with considerable defense and in which prayers can be completed.
However, it is exclusive to certain gods with the priesthood of "travel". Except for priests authorized by them, even Sui Xiong, who is also a god, cannot use it.
Among the mage's spells, there is a "mage villa", which not only provides a high level of food and accommodation, but also has several golems to guard it, and there are even maids inside.
However, that spell is very secretive, and even the God of Salvation only knows of its existence, but knows nothing about its principles. Maybe no one in the main plane knows how to use it...
"I will keep vigil tonight, so you can have a good sleep." Sui Xiong said to Lei and Steele, who had not yet regained their energy. "Sleep peacefully, I'm here with you."
The Lord God personally keeps vigil at night, so of course it is extremely safe. Although Lei and Steele were a little embarrassed and embarrassed, they finally accepted his kindness and went into the house to rest because they were too tired.
The two of them took a shower, ate and drank, then fell on the bed and fell into a deep sleep.
They were really exhausted today.
Sui Xiong was standing outside, his body shook, and he turned into a giant floating jellyfish that was larger than the shelter hut. It stopped above the house and watched the surroundings vigilantly.
He released a little bit of his momentum and dispersed in all directions. He only heard the sound of chickens flying and dogs jumping in the darkness. I don't know how many monsters, big and small, fled like flying. No one dared to stay nearby. .
After getting rid of these things that might threaten Ray and Steele, he relaxed and immersed himself in research again.
This time, the object of his research was the giant snake.
This snake has little intelligence and no magical abilities. It seems to be just an ordinary low-level venomous snake. I don't know how it grew to such a big size. It's really puzzling.
How long did it live to grow to such a big size?
Everything in the world has a lifespan, and snakes are no exception. There seems to be no legend about "turning into a spirit or a demon" in this world. Those who can live forever are either powerful enough to withstand the passage of time, or have noble blood and extraordinary talents.
However, this snake is neither strong enough nor has any noble bloodline, so what is the secret of its longevity?
Sui Xiong was very curious about this.
He is not a careless shopkeeper. He also wants to contribute more to the construction of churches and holy places - believers work hard and the gods enjoy the fruits. He does not agree with this custom.
After some consideration, he felt that as a senior intellectual, he should make contributions through intelligence rather than strength. It's just...he hasn't found a clue yet on how to contribute through his talents.
The planned holy place will be built in the cold north. Even if he can rely on his power to open up farmland, he will be self-sufficient. It is unrealistic to expect the surplus food to be sold. Mining, logging, quarrying, etc., it would be too cruel for believers to work hard to make money in the freezing cold. For example, in manufacturing, a place where transportation is not very convenient is unlikely to make a fortune from manufacturing. As for the service industry...hehe...hehehehe...don't make such silly jokes, please!
If you want to arrange a property for the Holy Land that is enough to support the believers and still have enough money to run the church, you must take into account several points: first, the work required for this property should not be done outdoors, otherwise people will freeze to death; second, this It is best not to use too many raw materials required for the industry, otherwise no matter whether it is collected or purchased, it will not be reliable; thirdly, it is best for this industry to be as exclusive as possible, so that others cannot copy it even if they are envious... I just thought of it for the moment. These, the rest will be added later.
These three items alone made him frown and unable to think of any reliable ideas. Although he is powerful and has a lot of information from the gods and knowledge from another technologically prosperous world in his mind, it is still too difficult to find a suitable industry based on these!
After all - before time travel, he was just an art school student who was good at painting, not a god-level engineering student who was familiar with various material formulas, mechanical drawings, and technological processes!
But now, he had an idea.
When it comes to what is most popular among wealthy people in this world, it is definitely "health and longevity". Although there is a situation in this world where people can go to the Kingdom of God after death, the threshold for entering the Kingdom of God is too high. I believe that most wealthy people will not be able to find a Kingdom of God that is willing to accept them. But if they are asked to be like the poor and go to the underworld after death and do whatever they want, they will definitely not be willing to do so.
So in this case, if we can introduce a life-extending potion with few side effects and good effects, we can definitely make a lot of money. Not to mention feeding the believers in a mere holy land, even if we feed a church with power throughout the entire continent, we can definitely make a lot of money. Absolutely no problem!
And the hope of obtaining this medicine lies in this giant snake that came to die on its own...
