How can a retired savior be considered retired if his price drops to 40,000?

Chapter 103 Even I, the God of Medicine, am not a serious Caster.
A red torrent spurted out from the feet of Asclepius, who was slightly levitated by the effect of psychic energy, and gathered into a blood-red ball near his raised hand.The deep blood-like liquid washed through the entire battlefield in an illusory way, taking away the pain and wounds of everyone present in an instant.

--Including Plague Marine's.

The Noble Phantasm "Imitation Medicine: Useless Lament of Hades" is an imitation of the "Resurrection Medicine" once made by Asclepius.The reason why they are just "imitation drugs" is because "real drugs" cannot be easily reproduced.The resurrection potions that were actually produced and used in the past used unique and special raw materials, and were successful due to a variety of karma and a large number of almost unreplicable accidental factors.In fact, Asclepius himself did not fully understand the method of making this resurrection potion. Until now, he is still working hard on it every time he appears in the world.

But even "imitation drugs" are still astonishingly effective.Although it cannot revive the dead almost unlimitedly like "real medicine", it is just a "slightly easier to use AED" that needs to meet various conditions - but if it is really regarded as just a AED is a real waste of money.

What Asclepius is pursuing in this medicine is "complete resurrection". Therefore, when it is put into use, the theoretical effect that should be achieved is to "return the treated person to the healthy state he was in before death". Even if the corpse was already extremely ill, decayed, and even turned into withered bones in the grave.The decisive difference between "real medicine" and "imitation medicine" is in the part of "resurrecting the dead", not in the "recovery of health" part.

——That is to say, for the Plague Marines, this medicine also makes them "return to their health".

The "gift" given to them by the Plague Lord is being healed.The lesions on their bodies improved rapidly, the rotten ulcers and broken cracks healed in an instant, the water in the body tissues was quickly reabsorbed and eliminated, and the bodies that were originally so huge that they looked like giants shrank back to normal - even As a result, the armor that had grown on them and integrated with them was peeling off piece by piece.

——Disease and filth are being stripped away from their bodies by counterfeit medicine, along with the supernatural vitality.

"What are you waiting for?! Attack now!" Asclepius shouted to the Ultramarines.

The people who were shocked by this miraculous sight woke up from a dream, and once again picked up the swords, guns, swords and halberds in their hands.Even the Ultramarine who fell near Asclepius because of his injured legs jumped up again after leaving a brief thank you and returned to the battlefield.

The situation reversed in a short period of time. This time, the Ultramarines fought against the weakened Death Guards in a completely safe state. The damage caused by bolters and chainswords finally returned to normal levels.Before the illusory red tide receded, dozens of plague warriors who had been stripped of their blessings had fallen; even after the tide receded, the filth from the garden could not immediately return to the Death Guards - that is to say, This offensive window is not over yet.

Even after the counterfeit medicine drove away the contamination of the evil god and returned to normal consciousness, many Death Guards began to have mental breakdowns because they recalled what they had encountered and what they had done.These people completely lost their will to fight in the center of the battlefield, dropped their weapons and screamed loudly, while the Ultramarines attacked them mercilessly with a hail of angry bullets, bringing their miserable lives to a complete end. .

The enemy lines were in disarray, but only Typhons, Chosen of Nurgle himself, and seven of his guards remained.Because of their status and role, these people are particularly favored by their loving father, at least at this moment.Under the wash of counterfeit drugs, they were also directly protected by the God of Plague, so they avoided the same "tragic" fate as other plague warriors.

But this protection is not free, their gods still need them to stand still.

Typhons swung his scythe forward again with a heavy and anxious heart, and his seven guards gathered in an arc beside and behind him to facilitate mutual support at any time.Now he has completely lost the high-spiritedness that he had when he just landed and killed everyone: the Lord of Flies has no flies, the Lord of Disease cannot spread the disease, and only seven of the brothers who accompanied him in the war are still able to move. , all he can rely on is the war scythe and psychic energy in his hand.

The embarrassed Typhons formed a battle formation with his guards and defended on the spot.Then, Nurgle's Chosen recited an incantation, once again prayed for a blessing from the garden, and spread it to the Ultramarines blocking him, just as he had done countless times before.But this time, his spell had no effect - the cousins ​​in front of him were indeed slightly knocked back by the impact of the spell, but they did not fall down from the rapidly worsening disease as they had done countless times before.

The aftertaste of "counterfeit medicine" allows them to resist the touch of the plague god.

As the Ultramarines roared and charged forward again, Typhons himself shouted loudly and raised his scythe high.He did rely on the blessings of the gods to conquer countless battlefields in the mortal world, but in addition, what should not be forgotten is that while he was the chosen one, he was also a veteran of thousands of battles during the Great Crusade.

The seven guards who had accompanied him across the battlefield since ancient times also raised their war scythes high, and together with their company commander, stepped forward to attack.

——According to the oracle's decree, their mission has changed.All they need to do now is just "stand here."
-
+ Asclepius. +
After realizing something was wrong from the link in the contract, Fujimaru Ritsuka's words finally came too late.Asclepius smiled miserably behind the mask and replied in the same way:

+If you want to scold me, scold me quickly, otherwise you won't have a chance. +
No one on the battlefield noticed it yet, but he knew clearly that his spiritual base itself had been grasped by the sticky hand of the God of Plague.Even though he himself was using magic power to resist, tiny fungi still gradually took root and sprouted around his feet.

"Declaring your name in front of the gods" is also often used as part of sacrificial acts, and is widely used in the "asking gods to cast their gaze" part of various rituals.In order to use the Noble Phantasm, Asclepius not only declared his name to the entire world in front of the Chosen God who was watching Nurgle, but the Noble Phantasm, which is the core of the Heroic Spirit's own experience and legend, is an extremely important indicator of his identity. Good note - this will naturally bring him to the attention of the Plague God.Apollo, as the sun god, was also in charge of epidemics, so his medical role was created later because of his opposition.As the son of Apollo and the "god of medicine", Asclepius also had the aptitude to be the god of disease even if he didn't want to.The probability that the God of Plague will not be interested in him after noticing him is basically zero.

The erosion of the Chaos Gods is the same: as long as you are entangled, you can never be freed.

+What a joke. + Fujimaru Ritsuka sounded a little angry, + You didn’t do anything wrong, why should I scold you? +
+...That is indeed what you would say. +
Asclepius smiled and strode forward, and several short scalpel-like knives appeared out of thin air from his cuffs.On the battlefield in front of us, the afterglow of "imitation medicine" is fading. With the protection of the true god, Typhons breaks out of the battle circle of the Ultramarines with his superb combat skills and the huge attack range of the war sickle among melee weapons - he He came towards Asclepius, who also came towards him.

The long mechanical snake swam in the air, constantly opening its mouth and spraying mist on the battlefield.The Ultramarines who saw this scene wanted to stop Asclepius, but he turned a deaf ear to it.

How could Master Chiron's disciples not know how to fight in close combat?

+Savitarion and Jeanne d'Arc Alter have already gone to support, Asclepius, hold on. +During the conversation, Fujimaru Ritsuka spoke quickly, +The Lord of Plague should not be able to directly project power to the area protected by the temple, even on the periphery.In other words, as long as Typhons is eliminated, things will turn around. +
+I'm already working on it. +Asclepius replied.

He was already close to the attack range of Typhons' war scythe, but both sides were still maintaining cautious restraint for the time being.The servant of the Plague Lord no longer dared to look down upon the "mortal" in front of him. Asclepius could see that the opponent still seemed to be intending to defend even though his weapons obviously had a larger attack range.Typhonse's attention was completely focused on the enemy. When facing a warrior, this strategy is understandable, but-

——A soft buzzing sound came from the top of Typhus's head. The short staff in Asclepius' hand appeared above his head out of thin air at some point, and it was obviously magnified in proportion under the influence of supernatural power. .Its sharp bottom was like a sharp sword, piercing straight from the top of Nurgle's chosen god's head. Typhons naturally wanted to raise his scythe to resist, but the next moment, he felt a warning sign for no reason:
That top-down beep was just to attract his attention, and the real killing move didn't end there.The moment Typhons raised his scythe, he was also aware of something strange happening underground: the long snake that was wandering around the battlefield had sneaked into the ground at some point. When the short staff fell, it also fell from Typhons's body. His feet suddenly jumped out and attacked him from two directions at the same time.

This blow beyond common sense caught the Death Guard Captain off guard.Although he instinctively made an evasive action at the last moment and did not suffer serious injuries, his center of gravity was unstable as a result.Asclepius took the opportunity to rush forward - even as a heroic spirit, without many related legends, he may not be able to compare with Typhonus in terms of weight, strength, and fighting skills.But if the opponent is not prepared for a surprise attack, it is not impossible to achieve considerable results.

The silver light of the scalpel flashed quickly, and the wound caused had a slight golden glow.In one instant, Asclepius accurately severed the tendons on Typhons' legs, and then on his arms at a speed that was difficult for the naked eyes of the Astartes to see.At this time, the long snake emerged from the ground again and coiled around the short staff, and the symbol of the "God of Medicine" floated in the mid-air on the battlefield.

Typhus, who lost his support in both physical and spiritual senses, obeyed gravity and fell to his knees - Nurgle's blessing did not leave him, even if Asclepius succeeded in taking away his ability to move, but after a few After one breath, the supernatural resilience from the Plague God will allow him to resume fighting.His guards are also rushing to support them. In just three seconds, they can break away from the ultramarines and use their war scythes as a loving father to seize the "child" he wants.

But Typhons did not realize that for a skilled doctor like Asclepius, three seconds was enough.

Almost at the same time as he fell to his knees, Typhons howled in anger and pain because of what was happening to him.His guards were unaware of what was causing their Captain so much pain, something unimaginable to the Blessed One.They just waved their scythes at the target mortal as planned, trying to push him away or directly spread the blessing to him, and Asclepius did retreat as quickly as they thought. opened--

——With a series of rotten and smelly black blood, and the heart of Typhons, the Captain of the Death Guard, that was deformed due to disease, and was even beating slowly due to the supernatural vitality.At the same time, a golden talisman was shining brightly in place of the heart.

Under the roar of Nurgle's Chosen, Asclepius laughed almost maniacally in the center of the battlefield with a viciousness that a doctor should not have.He casually threw away the filthy heart, and carelessly used his sleeves stained with rotten blood to pad his palms, and roughly pulled off the beak mask on his face:

"Come on, let's see who falls first?" he said with a smile.

The same black blood was welling up from his throat, staining his lips black.But Asclepius didn't care at all.

　Mi (six o'clock)
　　After watching this episode, I had to turn on the light and turn around.
