Survival in the game world begins with Biochemical 2

Chapter 605: Servis: My basement is pretty big...

Kalia Castle.

This castle, which once belonged to the Kalia royal family, is no longer what it once was.

If you want to go up along the road from the entrance of the castle, you must first break through the lower part of the castle that is crawling with finger worms, then pass through the upper part of the castle where wolves and goblin knights are stationed, and finally defeat the phantom of the Royal Guard Knight Loretta that appears at the royal moon-watching place, before you can reach the Three Sisters Tower where Lani is.

The Three Sisters Towers, as the name suggests, are three magician towers built together. The central one belongs to Lani, the northern one is called Rena Magician Tower, and the southern one is the residence of magic professor Servais.

Because Kara had passed through the Kalia Castle and met Lani a long time ago, she naturally lit up the blessing here.

It's a good thing that you can save yourself from running such a long distance. Not only does it save trouble, but also, even for Mr. Li, the image of the finger worm has nothing to do with the world of the living.

However, although Kara could also be sent to the blessing in the Lani Magician Tower, Li You finally chose to go to the royal moon-watching place first, and then go to the Magician Tower. After all, they are only in a cooperative relationship with Lani now, and it is not good to send it directly to the family.

The royal moon-viewing area has the same circular pool as the one at the Double Moon Knights, which is also the standard configuration of the Kalia royal family. Li You and his party teleported here, walked out of the moon-viewing area, and headed towards the Lani Magician Tower.

At the same time, inside the magician's tower.

On the second floor of the tower, which is also where the blessing is, three of Lani's subjects, half-wolf Blaze, military advisor Iggy, and magic professor Servais, are meeting here.

In addition to Blaze, Iggy and Servais also appeared here in the form of magical images.

Professor Servais of Magic was wearing an outfit similar to that of a high-level wizard's robe, but he was wearing a large hat with a huge brim on his head. His face was completely blocked by a silver mask, and the mouth of the mask was sewn with gold thread, which made him look a little weird.

The magic professors are a group of people who serve the royal family of Kalia. The big hat with the trajectory of stars painted under the brim originates from the royal stargazers. The sealing mask is what Radagon required the professors to wear after he became the husband of the Full Moon Queen, meaning that nothing related to him should be disclosed.

At this moment, the three of them were discussing something.

Iggy spoke first: "They will be here soon. According to Lady Ranee's instructions, we need to treat them with respect."

Servis was obviously dissatisfied. "It's just a betrayed Faded One and a bunch of mediocre heroes following her. Is it worth all of us to go out like this? I still have magic research to do."

Blaze warned, "Be careful with your words! Servais. The betrayal has been proven to be a misunderstanding, and they are..."

Iggy suddenly interrupted Blaze and said, "I know you are unhappy, Servais, but this is Lady Lani's order. Moreover, those two are not ordinary heroes and faders. They have defeated many demigods and the warriors of Lady Lenara, the Queen of the Full Moon."

"Okay, then I'll cooperate with you to finish this stupid play, and then I'll go and do my own thing. After this, don't bother me for a while."

After that, Servais complained in a low but still audible voice: "Really, without Lani, the rest of the people will only cause trouble."

Blaze was obviously a little dissatisfied with his attitude, but Iggy made a gesture to calm Blaze down, and then said, "Save those meaningless words, they are already here."

Without him saying anything, Blaze had already smelled the scent of outsiders approaching the magician's tower. He looked at Iggy, and Iggy nodded to him. So Blaze went downstairs to the magician's tower, and sure enough, he saw Li You and his group already there.

"It's Blaze, long time no see." Seeing Blaze coming out, Li You nodded to him. Blaze also bowed slightly and greeted them.

"Li You, and... Kara, and everyone else, it's been a long time since we last met. Please come in." They also learned Kara's real name from Lani.

Kara didn't react much, and nodded to him in a friendly manner: "Long time no see."

Although there were some misunderstandings between the two sides before, such as Blaze being beaten by Leda and others, the misunderstandings have been resolved and Blaze will not resent Kara.

Blaze welcomed the group into the magic tower. They came to the second floor, and the magical images of Servais and Iggy also looked at them.

Iggy also greeted Li You and Kara. Servais looked at Kara and Li You and his group, whom he had never seen before, with some nonchalantness.

But after just taking a few glances, he was suddenly startled, and his originally lazy body instantly stood up straight.

“This power…!?”

Li You was talking to Iggy at this time: "As you can see, I have found the person. According to the agreement between me and Lani, I am here to return the secret treasure of the Eternal City. Is Lani up there now?"

Iggy replied: "Mrs. Lani is indeed in the tower, but I'm sorry, Mr. Li You, we can't let you get close to her."

Li You was also stunned: "Why?"

Iggy replied, "Your timing is not very good. Lady Ranee is now... sleeping. Before she fell asleep, she had instructed no one to disturb her, and did not specify who could be an exception. If you were a subject of Lady Ranee and had retrieved the treasure for her, then it would be fine, but you are not. Therefore, for Lady Ranee's safety, we cannot let you go up."

Li You immediately understood what he meant. In the game, Lani would often fall into a deep sleep, perhaps because the doll's body was not compatible with her spirit. However, in the game, as long as the player got the secret treasure of the Eternal City, Lani would automatically wake up when he returned.

But now it seems that there are no such coincidences in the real world.

Li You also knew Iggy and Blaze's personalities. They were simply stubborn when it came to protecting their masters. So Li You didn't intend to waste time arguing with them and said, "If that's the case, I'll come back later."

Since Lani was still sleeping, Li You didn't plan to leave the Secret Treasure Hunting Finger Knife here. Not to mention that the favorability gained by doing so might not be enough, the key point was that if Lani got the knife, she would go to kill the two fingers alone.

Of course, these two fingers are not the same as those two fingers. There are more than one pair of fingers. Theoretically, the two fingers are the messengers of the Supreme Will. The one in the round table hall is responsible for guiding the faded ones. And Lani, who was a god in the past, also has her own corresponding pair of fingers. In terms of setting, Michaela and Marenia also have their own two fingers.

Because she killed her own body and abandoned her original destiny, Lani and her two fingers became enemies and have been attacking each other for many years. This is why Lani needs the hunting finger knife to kill the two fingers and start her own destiny.

But this time is different from the game. It is not convenient for Li You or Kara to go and pick up Lani. After all, a lot of conditions have to be met.

And if he let Lani go alone, Li You was really afraid that when he came back next time, the news he would hear would be: Lady Lani died in the fight with Shuangzhi.

So he took the hunting finger knife with him. At worst, he would come back next time when Lani woke up.

Iggy bowed his head to him and said, "I'm very sorry to trouble you to make this trip. But Lady Lani has instructed us to provide as much help as possible if you come again, so if there is anything we can do, please feel free to ask."

Li You thought for a moment and said, "For the time being, there is nothing I need your help with, um..."

At this moment, Servais next to him suddenly said, "If that's the case, let me teach them some magic."

Li You and his companions, as well as Iggy and Blazer, all looked at Servais. Li You, Kara, and Iggy all had similar reactions: What are you trying to do?

Didn't Li You know what kind of person Servis was? He was a traitor with evil intentions. He stayed under Ranie's command because he had some intentions towards her. He would hide away whenever possible and never stepped forward. How could he take the initiative to teach magic?
Just by thinking this simply, Li You understood that this bastard Servis was definitely up to something bad.

In the game, Servis has a secret hobby. He will use special potions to turn people he likes into puppets and keep them around him to "appreciate their beauty." If you complete his side quest, he will also regard you as a comrade and share his puppet inventory with you.

In a hidden basement in a ruin near the Three Sisters Tower, players can find many puppets of Servis. Even in the innermost secret room, there is a female magician puppet, and that puppet is the new body that Teacher Seren can inhabit.

So Li You originally planned to contact Servais, but he didn't expect that he didn't even need to take the initiative to find him, Servais came to him on his own.

Seeing Servis rubbing his hands like a fly, Li You understood that this guy was suddenly so enthusiastic. He might have set his eyes on the people around him and was planning to turn one of them into a puppet.

Realizing this, Li You had already sentenced him to death in his heart.

Tbh, you dare to attack my people? You can't even think about it!
In the game, Servis's quest is to turn other NPCs into puppets. If you go to the end, he will even be bold enough to attack his master, Lani.

He will ask the protagonist to help find a special material, Starlight Amber, and then use it to make a potion that can turn a demigod into a puppet.

However, the potion was finally made, but unfortunately it had no effect on Lani. If the player really fed the potion to Lani, she would kill him on the spot and turn hostile to him, while Servais would kill Lani directly after she discovered the truth.

Of course, let’s not talk about the fate of this idiot for now. His potion can really turn a living person into a puppet. As for the potion for the demigod, it might not be useless, but because Lani prepared it in advance, or the puppet’s body is in special condition.

When he was exploring the Shadow Land before and just learned of Michaela's true plan, Li You had considered whether he should come back to find Servais to customize a potion and feed it to Michaela.

But soon he knew that Michaela had entered the Shadow Tower and was about to become a god, so he naturally did not waste time and energy preparing for these things.

As for now, it should be said that Li You is still somewhat interested in Servis' potion, not to mention Teacher Se Lian's health problems.

So since Servis had already leaned close to his face, Li You would not refuse and continued speaking along with his words: "Is that so? That's good. Are you really willing to teach me magic?"

Servis continued to rub his hands. "Of course. You can tell at a glance that you are a genius in magic. Come to the magician's tower in the south to find me. I will be waiting for you there."

After that, the magic image of Servis disappeared. Iggy and Blaze looked at Li You, and Iggy reminded him, "Mr. Li You, regarding Servis' proposal..."

Li You waved his hand: "Don't worry, I know what's going on." Kara also said: "Master Iggy, don't worry, Master is not that easy to be deceived, and I am here for you."

Iggy nodded when he saw this: "Okay, if there's anything else we can do, just ask. If you need help in the battle, Blaze can also help you a little." Blaze stood up straight and gave a soldier's salute: "Stand by at all times."

"I understand." After bidding farewell to the two, Li You and his party left the Lani Magician Tower and headed towards the Servis Magician Tower in the south.

On the way, Kara asked Li You: "Master, do you remember what I said, that guy is very cunning? He is not trustworthy."

V also spoke up: "It's clear from the looks of it that that guy has bad intentions. He might be planning to plot against us."

Li You said, "Don't worry, I know that. He has bad intentions. But unfortunately, I know all about Servis's intelligence. He is too young to play tricks on me."

As they were talking, the group had already arrived at the Servis Magician Tower, and Servis was waiting for them on the first floor.

"Hey, you're here?" He greeted him enthusiastically as soon as he opened his mouth, making Li You a little uncomfortable.

No, aren't you a venomous, sinister, and trouble-averse person in the game? It was only after the protagonist, the Fader, became your comrade that your attitude toward him improved. What's wrong now?
"Servis." Kara looked at him, and this time she didn't even nod. Her attitude was not friendly. Servis did the same. He looked at her, sighed lightly, and didn't say much.

Instead, he said to Li You: "You must be the hero chosen by Lady Lani. You are indeed a handsome man, extraordinary!"

"I know, you must be a little confused as to why I am so enthusiastic about you. To be honest, my saying that I would teach you magic is indeed an excuse. In fact, I see your potential."

Li You was also stunned: You guessed what I was going to say, but why do your lines sound a little familiar to me?
Servis continued, "Listen to me. Your true potential lies not in magic, but in... the art of puppetry!"

Li You: "?"

Are you going to reveal your secrets so directly?

Servis was still rubbing his hands. "Do you know anything about puppets? Just like ashes that have power, puppets can recreate the appearance of their masters before they died, allowing them to fight for us, and even... do more."

"The most important thing is that they don't have their own consciousness and will only obey your orders completely. They are perfect children!"

He was so straightforward that Li You was almost at a loss for words before he said, "I have heard of puppets, but why are you telling me this? What do you mean I have a talent for puppetry?"

"I have been researching puppets for many years, and have always wanted to make a breakthrough, but I am still one step away," said Servais. "The puppets I created cannot be controlled by me at will, just like living people."

"According to my research, to perfectly control a puppet, one needs a special physique. This physique is one in a million, but as long as it is combined with my secret medicine, the master can drive the puppet as if it were his own body and become the king of puppets!"

As he spoke, he suddenly turned to Li You: "And you have that special physique!"

Li You: "???"

Did I go to the wrong set? ? When did I get to the next door Xiuxian studio?

Kara, who was standing by, was hammering with his left hand and his right hand at the time: "Oh, I've seen this plot in novels! What follows is a classic story of apprenticeship, the master and the apprentice becoming enemies, and finally the apprentice taking over..."

Of course, she said this in a mental link.

"Go away." Li You's expression almost couldn't hold back. What the hell did you see?
"...That's not right. Could it be that this is why you accepted me as your master?"

Kara (turning her head): The scenery in the magician's tower is so beautiful.

Li You: (Dan)
You better remember this!

Servis saw that Li You didn't react for a long time and thought that he was shocked by his words, so he added: "Of course, your current physical condition is not activated, so you don't feel anything. To successfully activate your physical condition, you need to take my specially prepared amber potion. In this way, you can become the real puppet king and drive all my puppets at will!"

Li You said that you just said this line...wait!
He suddenly realized something. Drinking potion to activate the Puppet King's physique was just nonsense. How could he not know what the amber potion was good for?

But, Servais was trying to trick him into drinking the potion?
Li You's pupils immediately trembled: Servais, you, with your thick eyebrows and big eyes, are targeting me instead of the people around me?
Just as he thought of this, he saw Servais approach him, patted his shoulder, smiled strangely and said, "Boy, you have a good figure. Pretty strong, right?"

Li You felt a chill at that moment.

"Fuck! Nantong!"

Thinking of what Servais always said, "Appreciate his beauty", Li You felt fear again after a long time...

General Latan, who shouted in his heart "I must survive" on the Weeping Dunes, must have had the same fear.

Li You subconsciously took a step back.

Damn it, although I am indeed good-looking, all the girls who have been attracted to my body in the past have been girls, and I have never met any in Nantong!
Li You's reaction surprised Servais, who began to reflect on whether he was too obvious. So he coughed and said, "Sorry, I was too anxious. Your physique is really rare. I'm the first one I've met in so many years, so I was a little excited. Don't blame me."

"In short, if you want to successfully open this physique, then please help me find the amber starlight, and I will be able to refine the amber potion and make you the puppet king. At that time, I can give you all the puppets I have collected over the years, so that you can meet the Elden Ring and become the king of the new era!"

"Okay, okay, I understand." Li You suppressed the discomfort in his heart and nodded in agreement, "I will go find Amber Starlight for you."

Anyway, get the potion first.

Servis was happy now: "Very good, then in exchange, you can choose a puppet from me first, so that you can experience the convenience of puppets in advance."

As Servis said this, he "generously" showed off his inventory, but in fact, just like in the game, he now only let Li You choose one from the two puppets.

One of the two puppets was a man wearing a pot hood and only a loincloth, the Pot Man. The other was a woman wearing a witch's robe.

When Kara saw the puppet, she was stunned: "...What is this?"

"You haven't reacted yet?" Servais sneered at the situation. "As expected, you have no talent. When we were fighting against General Shatterstar, the finger witch, Serolina, who was always releasing and restoring for you, was the puppet I sent!"

Kara was silent.

Li You looked at her reaction and said to Servais, "I understand. Then give me Serolina's puppet. I just happen to be in need of a recovery person."

When facing him, Servais' attitude became much better: "No problem, take it." He also added: "You have to treat her well, these puppets are my beloved children."

Upon hearing this, Li You felt a chill from head to toe again.

Finally, Li You said goodbye to the enthusiastic Servais and fled from his magic tower.

On the way back, V smiled and said, "I never thought you had the physique to attract men. That guy named Servis obviously has his eyes on you, right?"

Aggie also nodded: "That's what I saw. His explanation is obviously made up."

Li You couldn't help but hold his forehead: "Stop talking, let me be quiet."

Yuzu said, "...I hate him. I'm going to tear that guy apart."

Li You: "Don't do that yet. Not to mention that he is still useful, this guy is still nominally a subject of Lani. Don't kill him now... and there is no use in killing him. Servais' body is just a puppet."

Everyone: "!!"

Normally, Kara would definitely speak about this matter, but at this moment, she just looked at the puppet of Serolina in her hand, immersed in her own thoughts.

When the puppet is in storage state, it is similar to ashes, storing the soul characteristics in a small box, so it can be easily held in Kara's hand or put into the magic pocket.

Seeing Li You coming, she said, "I'm sorry, Master. It's just... Serolina saved me twice in the battle against Latan. If it weren't for her recovery, we might not have been able to hold on until the victory. But I didn't expect that she had been turned into a puppet by Servais a long time ago."

Li You said, "I understand that you are feeling very complicated, but you don't have to think too much. It is indeed Serolina who is helping you. She is in your hands now. It is impossible to recover from the puppet state, so just cherish her."

Kara nodded. She was still very strong, so she calmed down immediately and naturally continued the topic that V and Edge had just discussed: "Come to think of it, Servais does seem to have that kind of interest. Look, there's a naked man in his puppet?"

The veins on Li You's forehead jumped: "………Just shut up, let's end this topic!"

Except for Youzi, Kara and the other two were all smiling happily, only Li You's face was so dark that it seemed as if his bloodline characteristics were exposed.

The topic was temporarily put to rest until the group was teleported through the blessing and arrived at the Dickas elevator.

Looking at the magnificent elevator in front of him, Li You motioned for Kara to take out the talisman: "Let's go, it's time to head to the Yatan Plateau."
