My Liver Experience in the World of Cthulhu
Chapter 489: Make things more difficult for yourself
At midnight, the grand banquet ended. After the music ended and the crowd dispersed, Moya Castle returned to peace.
The warehouse was piled with gifts. Elisa happily opened the gifts with the maid. For her, this was a rare enjoyment.
Just like opening a blind box, you never know when a small surprise will appear.
Andy reminded:
"Madam, it's almost twelve o'clock. You should go back and rest."
"It's so fast, happy times are always short," Elisa put down the gift in her hand and ordered:
"Andy, you will be responsible for counting the gifts tomorrow, and then give me the book."
"Okay," the maid agreed and led the hostess away.
Elisa returned to the bedroom and found her husband standing in front of the French window, staring at the endless starry sky.
"Today's training ended so early," she walked to the other side, stretched out her head and bent slightly.
"Today's training ended so early," she walked to the other side, stretched out her head and bent slightly to observe the other's expression, "Are you worried about something?"
Crown hugged her gently from behind, told her about his conversation with Flanders, and then said:
"I wonder if the policies implemented before were wrong. Shattrath City provides a comfortable environment, and even a few crises were easily overcome.
Under the protection of the Silver Dawn, the people living here have lost their sense of crisis. You must know that outside the range of the Holy Light, there are gray fogs and countless monsters and minions of evil gods.
The continuous increase in population is not a good thing. Sooner or later, we will have a food crisis, and we must find a way to reduce the population."
"You finally realized this problem. I wanted to mention it to you after the church was established."
Eliza turned her face to the side and reached out to touch her husband's face:
"From my experience, if you treat people too well in the early stage, once you are not so good to them, people will stand up and oppose you.
But you are a god, you should show compassion to people, that's right, so let me be the villain.
I plan to wait until I succeed the throne of the Pope to reorganize a force. This force will be composed of members of other families and extraordinary people from ordinary people. Their mission is to assist the Silver Dawn in clearing monsters in the wild.
I will build a number of outposts near the edge of the holy light range outside the city to provide the first warning line for the city. The newly established troops are the main force of the outposts.
In this way, we can use monsters to consume the population and improve the combat effectiveness of the troops."
She paused and continued:
"When the troops are established, they will definitely be obstructed by many people, or they will not work hard. At that time, I will use thundering means to rectify them and let everyone know who is the master here."
Her plain words have already determined the life and death of many people.
"Let go and go," Clown understood that kindness does not command the army and justice does not command the money. The more critical the situation is, the more a leader with a strong hand is needed. His previous approach was too soft.
Fortunately, this is a world where great power belongs to oneself. Otherwise, if a group of people who are hypocritical appeared in the territory, the power might have been lost.
Two months passed in a flash, and Clown was staying in the alchemy laboratory and concentrating on refining potions. This was a potion prepared for Black Cat to increase the chance of advancing to the fifth level.
He combined his unparalleled knowledge of herbal medicine and proposed a new theory. He did thousands of experiments, and today was the closest to success.
The situation in Shattrath City was very good during this period, and Rivigaz also brought good news. Andre agreed to the transaction proposal and would exchange various resources for potions.
Clown was not surprised by this. This was a win-win situation, and normal people would not object.
Compared with the stability here, other parishes were not so lucky. Many cities were constantly attacked by beast tides, and suffered heavy casualties.
But this is not entirely a bad thing, at least the food crisis is not so obvious.
During this period, Clown turned a deaf ear to the outside world, and his mind was used to practice the power of the field, breathing method, and improved potions. Occasionally, he would take time to make holy light naaru.
Although his proficiency improved very slowly, he persisted and there would be a day of perfection.
He felt that he was very lucky, at least he could still see his progress, even if it was very slight.
According to the Moon Goddess, she herself had not made any progress for thousands of years, which was really miserable.
He guessed that he only needed to advance the holy light field and two breathing methods to the next level to enter the eighth level. Although he didn't know whether the guess was accurate, at least there was a goal now.
He didn't dare to imagine whether he would go crazy if he didn't make any progress for thousands of years. Maybe not. If he didn't make any progress, he might soon change his interest.
According to the Moon Goddess, the gods can use the kingdom of God as a "spaceship" to explore the spirit world, so even if they enter the spirit world in the future, they would not be afraid of having nothing to do.
As Clown thought, he watched the potion reaction on the lab table. When the potion in the beaker gradually changed from azure to emerald green, he immediately took the beaker down.
The physical fitness of the god was not afraid of the high temperature of the beaker at all. His hands suddenly became crystal clear like white jade, and the Taiyin Law was transmitted from the palm of his hand into the beaker.
Using the Taiyin Law to rapidly cool down the potion can keep more activity in the potion. This activity is very important. It can temporarily increase the vitality of the black cat to make up for the damage to the source of life caused by the magic circle during the advancement.
This potion is a customized product, a special potion tailored for the physique of the black cat. After taking it, the black cat will also strengthen its own compatibility with the Taiyin Law.
The potion cooled down, and it was as green as the deep lake water in the summer forest. The light and shadow flickered, as if there were stars floating in it.
Clown nodded slightly. The potion was transparent in color and had a faint cold fragrance. From the perspective of color and smell, it was fine.
He stretched out his hand and placed it above the beaker. A drop of potion flew out of the water and flew under his palm. As his hand turned, it fell on his index finger.
This drop of potion was like mercury, very textured. He put his finger to his mouth, licked it with his tongue, and carefully distinguished the taste.
A little bit of coldness spread from the tip of the tongue, and a little bitterness began to spread in the mouth.
Clown closed his eyes slightly and tasted the medicinal properties carefully. Even if it was a poison, this dose would not even cause him abdominal pain.
The potion gradually took effect. He could feel that the Taiyin law in his body began to become active. Although the feeling was very weak, he still smiled and opened his eyes. The potion worked, and the hard work of the past two months was not in vain.
The potion was only of the fifth level, so it had little effect on him, but for the fourth-level black cat, it was a strong medicine.
Next, he only needed to calculate the dosage carefully to prepare for the advancement of the black cat.
He sealed the potion, and then a group of small robots flew out of the Fire Cube and skillfully organized the experimental table.
Clown believed that the soul control technique, which was originally designed for combat, was the skill that improved his quality of life the most.
The various metals swallowed by the Fire Cube have their own uses. The main body of the cube is not outstanding in intelligence, but it is a supercomputer that can handle various logical thread work at the same time.
Now the metal it swallowed can form a "Transformer" with a height of 30 meters. Although the mass of the metal it swallowed has reached the limit, the thickness of the metal essence on the surface of the golem is increasing day by day.
Clown personally tested that when the thickness of the metal essence reaches more than three millimeters, it can temporarily defend against the seventh-level law attack.
The thickness of the alloy armor on his body is five millimeters. Although it loses some flexibility, it brings higher defense and fault tolerance.
With full armor, he could take a ten-second bath under the evil flame attack of the evil god who destroyed St. Peter's Cathedral.
Clown stopped in front of the door and summoned a golden wall.
[Holy Light Domain (Tai Chi): 1029895/2000000; Level 1]
[Flame Dragon Breath: 476357/500000; Level 3]
[Silver Dragon Howling Moon: 473926/500000; Level 3]
Although he has never slacked off, his proficiency is still growing slowly, which makes him, who is used to rapid progress, a little uncomfortable.
After Black Cat completes the advancement, he plans to go to the Kingdom of Ribia to see if he can find the evil god who occupies the former site of Lantimat Cathedral. He wants to try whether killing the evil god can increase his skill proficiency.
When Clown walked out of the main castle, he saw the stars in the sky falling and the dawn moon setting in the west.
He walked to the study and saw Anti and several servants standing at the door in a somewhat listless manner. Seeing him coming, the maid immediately knelt down:
"Your Majesty, the lady is reviewing the documents, do you need to go in?"
Seeing him nod, Anti gently pushed the door open.
Crown stepped in, and the door was gently closed again, almost without making a sound.
"Another sleepless night?"
He approached the desk and pulled a chair to sit down.
He glanced at it, and when he saw the doctrines and Bibles of various churches on the table, his face couldn't help but blush. He, a god, was indeed relaxed and comfortable, because those tedious but necessary matters were thrown to the pope of the new church.
"Aren't you the same?!"
Eliza stretched her waist with her face sideways, and smiled brightly:
"The time for the establishment of the church is getting closer and closer. Now all the regulations are formulated, and it will be much easier at that time."
Being able to control a church is equivalent to controlling the fate of believers. The taste of power makes her intoxicated.
She had already arranged the candidates for the main positions in the church in her mind. As long as the church was established, it would be able to operate normally soon. Now, what she was most worried about was the missionary work.
The news that her husband had advanced to the level of a god had spread in the kingdom for several months. She didn't know how many responses there would be in other regions after the new church was established.
After all, her husband was from the Church of the Lord of Fire. Even if other parishes did not take sides, they could not start a war at the beginning.
If the negotiation and wrangling stage was entered, it would take a lot of time, which was not what she wanted to see.
Now the wind and snow outside were still strong, and it was inconvenient to contact the outside world. She could not get the most first-hand information, which always made her feel uneasy.
She repeated her concerns, and then said:
"We must integrate the Farouk Kingdom. I am worried that even if we release the news that the Lord of Fire can no longer come back, a large number of fanatical believers are unwilling to believe it.
These believers who are loyal to the gods are also needed, so it is best not to use extreme measures, but if things reach a stalemate, extraordinary measures will have to be taken.
If it really comes to that, the former partners will turn against each other, which may accelerate the spread of evil gods in the human world."
Klauen understood that the last sentence was what his wife was really worried about, and he said:
"I will let Luther announce the fact that the Lord of Fire can no longer be contacted."
Eliza shook her head slightly and said:
"The facts are not that important. If some people want to bargain with us for more benefits, they may even spread the gossip that the Saxon family is controlled by you."
Crown frowned slightly:
"They dare to play so exciting? Who gave them the courage?"
"Looking at your resume, have you ever had a dark history of slaughtering civilian believers?
During the reign of Osman Druk, the cultists attacked the Church, and you turned the tide. In the end, you returned the power to the Saxon family.
In the eyes of some people, this is not mercy but weakness. You had the hope of becoming the new pope of the Church of the Lord of Fire."
Eliza paused and said:
"In a sense, you drove away the evil god who destroyed the city of Bly, which made it more difficult for our church to expand.
Fortunately, the heavy snow this year prompted the monsters that had been growing wildly for a year to attack the city, and Shattrath was not attacked at all, which can be used as a bright spot for publicity."
If there is a powerful enemy outside, it will inevitably lead to internal unity, but when the external danger is hidden, the fragile internal unity will also collapse.
Clown grinned. It was really stupid to increase the intensity of the game by himself.
"Thank you for your hard work. I'm too lazy to think about these twists and turns. You can do whatever you want. If you need my cooperation, tell me."
He was not interested in the struggle for power. In his heart, the highest principle was still to improve his own extraordinary path.
He could defeat ten skills with one force. There were a lot of wisdom outside, but he could break them with one punch. If things were too complicated, he would just cut through the mess with a knife.
At this moment, he couldn't help but think of a sentence, a knight broke the ban with force, and of course he would kill with a sharp weapon.
He said "um" and said:
"I plan to let Baster complete the advancement in the next few days, and then go out.
With two sixth-level dragons, two fifth-level tamed beasts, and six holy light naaru, the safety of Shattrath City is guaranteed to a certain extent.
By the way, how are you practicing the combined attack secret technique?"
The combined attack secret technique requires at least a fifth-level extraordinary person as the core. After his wife's advancement, all silver-level members of the Silver Dawn were recruited to practice.
"I'm already very skilled. How dare I slack off on something that can save my life!
However, when I want to launch an attack, the burden on my body is too great, and launching five or six attacks at most is the limit.
Only when there are a few more fifth-order nodes in the combined attack secret array to help me share the pressure, then the secret technique will have a certain degree of practicality, and only then can I compete with the evil god for a short time."
Klauen nodded:
"When you become the Pope, immediately start to train Nick and others to advance. I have already refined the Storm Sea Potion."
He stood up and stretched out his hand:
"Let's go, go back and rest for a while, don't get tired."
Holding their hands together, the two walked out hugging each other.
