"City of Waiting", Alchemy Laboratory.

Holding a green clipboard, Strunm talks energetically about his experiment: "That's it! When I was developing the 'Corpse Oil Lubricating Fluid', I developed the 'Roaring Detonator' because of an error in the experiment! ”

Looking at the wall that had been blown out of a gap, Qingyi was speechless. He had to look at the tube of reddish-yellow grease in his hand, which was sticking to the inner wall of the test tube, and there were several blood streaks mixed in it.

"In addition to the maintenance of siege equipment, the 'corpse oil lubricant' can also be used to repair equipment!" Speaking of this, Strunm pursed his lips and seemed to be very unhappy: "It's cheap that uneducated dwarf again, this thing is the most suitable for him!" ”

(Xue Duo: "I'm still curious about why you can study lubricants to develop explosives.") ”）

"I've done comparative experiments. I've found that when more corpse oil is added, the viscosity of the liquid increases, which creates another substance called 'grease mucus'. Using it as a binder will increase the life of the building by ten years. In addition, it seems to be able to be used to make traps, so that people caught in the trap cannot move. Stram said, pulling out another tube of grease. Dead gas has a catalytic effect on it, and if it is in a place where there is no dead air, the viscosity is not so good. ”

"This thing is very useful to Master Patra, and maybe it can be used widely among the Bone Blade Assassins as well."

Qingyi chatted with Strunm for a few more words and left the laboratory.

Everything is different. When I stand in front of my subordinates again, I always fantasize about them standing on a high place and performing cruel experiments on themselves. This is another meaning of loneliness, but Qingyi will no longer be confused. As long as you become stronger and become a strong person that no one can reach, then you can stop all the small ones who are ready to move, and everyone will continue to be their subordinates with peace of mind. Qingyi thinks so and does so.

Getting stronger...... If you are strong, you don't need to be afraid of anything, and you don't need to scruple about anything. In "Qiankun", only the strong can have the last laugh.

"Daddy!"

Qingyi turned his head and found that it was Suo'er.

Suo'er was dressed a little differently than she had at the beginning. When Qingyi first saw her, she had a cute doll head and a bright red bow tied to the left of her bangs, which was very conspicuous; Now she doesn't have that childish bow, her hair has grown a lot, hanging down to her shoulders, and her bangs are pulled to the left in a nineteen minute. Her sapphire eyes became more and more exciting, and her eyelashes grew ridiculously. She was still dressed in a small black dress with lace, and her shoulders were floppy and floppy; The lower body is a pair of black and white striped stockings just above the knee and a pair of black high-heeled round-toe boots. Around her neck hung the priceless gem "The Clouds of Saramonroe", and the purple gem in turn set off the little princess like an angel.

"You've grown a little taller." Qingyi smiled.

"Dad, it's been a long time since you've told me a bedtime story." Suo'er stood two meters in front of Qingyi, as if she didn't dare to approach Qingyi.

"That's because I've been busy lately......"

"But, Dad rarely hugs me anymore, does he?" Su'er lowered her head and muttered.

When Qingyi heard this, he immediately stepped forward and hugged Suo'er: "Who said that, look, didn't I hug you?" ～”

"Dad, I'm so scared...... I'm so afraid you'll ignore me! Suo'er cried and buried her face in Qingyi's arms: "Why don't you take Suo'er to fight!" Is Suo'er useless? Woohoo, woohoo......"

"I don't take you to fight because I'm afraid you'll get hurt." Qingyi secretly felt funny, and patted Suo'er on the back so that she wouldn't cry. "You are my baby, if there is any accident in the battle, won't it make me feel distressed to death?"

Su'er raised her little face and sobbed, "Really? ”

Qingyi held the other party's face and said seriously: "Of course it's true!" Dad will lie to you! Suo'er is the most useful, both obedient and cute, everyone rushes to ask for it! ”

"Of course!" Suo'er burst into tears and smiled, and kissed Qingyi on the cheek: "I like dad the most!" ”

After sending the little trouble away, Qingyi came to the library and began to look for materials. Although Frankie's current state is bad, it is by no means useless, and maybe there are books that can help?

Although the library is still empty, after several replenishments of books (loot from successive battles and gratuitous assistance from the blood elves), the books have filled the shelves on the first floor, and they are finally in good shape.

Architecture...... Alchemy...... World History ...... Wrong wrong. Qingyi muttered as she rummaged through the bookshelves. He was dazzled and annoyed by the variety of titles.

"Your Majesty, is there anything I can do to help you?" A polite voice came from the side. It was a skeleton dressed in a rudimentary cloth robe, his bones white, shiny and unstained, giving it a rather clean, untidy feel, which was very rare - most necromantic creatures would not pay attention to appearance. The fire of his soul is also very stable, like a long-lasting lamp. There was no ornamentation on his robe, just a plain crimson purple. Of course, his soul fire is only at an intermediate level, and in terms of soul strength alone, it is not very noticeable.

"You are? ......In Qingyi's impression, he had never seen this skeleton.

"I'm your subordinate, Brian."

————————————————————————————————————

Necromancer Brian (Brain): An intermediate-level NPC. It was originally a very ordinary skeleton soldier, but it obtained the skill [Read] during a [Necromantic Enchantment], which opened the door to wisdom. Because of his love of knowledge, he gave himself a name. Never noticed.,It's a person with a weak sense of existence.。

Seeing this attribute, Qingyi finally remembered who the other party was.

During the attack on Isengard, Qingyi refines the skeletons at all costs so that all the skeletons gain low-level skills, and one of the skeletons actually gets a cumbersome [Read]. Qingyi left the skeleton soldier in the library and ignored it ever since. And last time, the old manager Jont reported to Qingyi that "the skeleton in the library is advanced to the intermediate level", but Qingyi was busy preparing for the war and had no time to pay attention to it. There were so many things that he couldn't keep busy alone, and he left several things behind.

Brian (character archetype: group friends, the deceased, twilight, thank you for your continued support), is the lucky guy who climbed from low to mid, and is also Qingyi's new subordinate!

"Hmm...... I'm looking for information about souls. What if a necromantic creature hadn't dissipated to the point of dissipation, but had never been able to light a soul fire? Qingyi thought for a moment and asked.

"If it's not in the mutation period, it's definitely very traumatized. Necromantic creatures (mid to low-level) do not feel physical pain, but they are quite mentally acute. Once you suffer irreparable mental damage, it is like human brain death; Necromantic creatures that have lost their spiritual imprint may still have the characteristics of life, but in fact they have dissipated, leaving only their bodies and soul origins. Brian didn't disappoint Qingyi, and he had a large amount of academic materials at his fingertips. He raised his arm and pointed to the wall lamp: "This is also known as the 'blank soul'. In the sea of bones, this impersonal soul fire is everywhere, like a wall lamp in a library. ”

"I can't let Frankie be a wall lamp." Qingyi said coldly, the darkness in his eyes surging.

"Oh? So you are talking about His Excellency Frankie, who is indeed a great man worthy of respect. I have every reason to believe that Lord Frankie is in the Mutation Period, as his soul is so strong that the Spirit Brand should not be destroyed, unless the damage is inflicted by a Heroic Combat Professional, and the damage is used with a special move. ”

"Good, you guessed it all." Qingyi's face was even more unsightly.

"I'm sorry, Your Majesty, but I'm just telling the truth."

"It's okay, please continue."

"The reason why His Excellency Frankie has not become a blank soul until now is because he has an iron will and is constantly fighting against himself. Once he can't hold on, he loses himself irreversibly; But if he persists, he will be able to rekindle the fire of his soul and restore his health. This is a battle on the level of consciousness, and no one else can help at all, and if there is anyone who can help, it will only be you, Your Majesty. ”

"Me?"

"Your Excellency Frankie's soul and body are born from you. You are the one-in-a-kind Necromantic King, and every bone in your body contains great power. If you dig deeper, you may be able to find a way to help His Excellency Frankie. [Soul Replacement] is the key. ”

"That's a good suggestion. Well? ……”

After talking to Brian for a long time, Qingyi finally noticed: this guy is very different from his cognition! Although a mid-level necromantic NPC already has intelligence, it is really unprecedented for someone like Brian to be able to talk freely! This made Qingyi have to face up to this new subordinate. The other party calmly faced the king, and was not deterred by the majesty at all.

After a long time, Qingyi said: "I'm going to hold a monthly meeting in the council hall later, you can come along, you can get acquainted with your new colleagues." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty."

This simple answer made Qingyi couldn't help but look at him a few more times. In the "City of Waiting", not everyone has the opportunity to enter the chamber of the City Lord's Mansion, which symbolizes honor and status. If I changed to other necromantic creatures, I was afraid that I would be grateful and trembling, but Brian's attitude was very flattering.

Isn't that special...... What presence is weak? In my heart, your existence is unique. Qingyi thought to himself and left the library.
