"It doesn't matter, they are all my confidantes, there will be no problem. Besides, didn't they all hear the news just now, what's the point of worrying about these now?"
"Um, well then, the three of you, please follow me."
Recter led Lilia and others around the general's mansion, as if they were following a certain pattern. Finally, they came to an unremarkable stone house, surrounded by few people, only two A tall soldier in his thirties and forties, wearing a guard uniform, stood guard in front of the door.
The strength of these two people is not bad. In Wei Lisi's opinion, although they are not as good as Hua, they are much higher than Recter. They are probably sky-level fighters. It seems that Layton is among them.
"Major General, who are they?"
Both of them seemed to be taciturn, but one of them reached out to stop the young general in white armor who was leading the way, and glanced at the three women with a slightly vigilant look. It seems that even if Rector led the way, they could not completely relax their vigilance .
"The identity of the nobleman from the capital has been confirmed."
Hearing what General Layton's son said, the two soldiers looked at each other without any unnecessary movements, just nodded, and then stood on both sides without speaking.
"Please, Your Highness."
Rector seemed to be accustomed to this, and smiled at Lilia apologetically, then pushed open the door and stepped into the ordinary stone house, followed by Lilia and the others.
As soon as he entered the room, a strong smell of medicine mixed with a decadent smell rushed towards his face. The delicate and precious princess couldn't help covering her nose. It's a little awkward.
As for Willis and Hua, as a special race, the former has a high tolerance to harsh conditions such as smell and environment, while the latter is a senior adventurer who has fought through life and death trials again and again. This kind of small battle is natural. Even the facial expressions don't change much.
"Father, how are you feeling?"
Rector quickly came to the room, next to the old man lying on the bed, while feeling his pulse, he carefully watched the latter's expression. Although he didn't say anything, he could see that the boy was still very worried about his father's condition. .
"You are General Layton? For the first time, how did you...become like this?"
Her Royal Highness's exclamation sounded in the room.
Chapter 19: Chapter 19: Blessings from Heaven
Lilia came up to the old man and looked at him with sunken facial features, rough and wrinkled skin, and scrawny appearance, her face was full of disbelief.
You know, this is a strong man who is at the peak of the sky and will become a legend. It stands to reason that even on the eve of dying of old age, he would not become so embarrassed.
Layton seemed to be unable to speak anymore, he barely looked at the three young girls with cloudy eyes, and when he noticed the fine clothes and crown on Lilia's body, a gleam of excitement obviously flashed in his eyes.
"Marshal... Father, he was attacked by an assassin half a month ago. We are very ashamed. We don't know how the other party bypassed the heavily guarded city lord's mansion and found his father's study... Although the other party's martial arts skills are not higher than father's. How much, but the ability is quite strange. During the battle, the man stabbed his father with a short blade at the cost of serious injuries, and then escaped..."
Rector explained somewhat dejectedly, and pointed to a not-so-deep wound on the right side of Layton's shoulder that was tied with gauze.
"The knife was undoubtedly smeared with poison. Although my father didn't show any obvious changes at the time, he began to weaken and shrink in the next few days. We tried various methods, and doctors, priests, and healing magic were all helpless. , can only rely on drugs to temporarily delay the speed of weakening, but..."
But the effect will definitely not be very good. After all, everyone can see what Layton looks like now.
"Assassins...why do assassins suddenly appear at such a time...could it be..."
Lilia bit her nails with a gloomy expression and kept making click-click sounds. She felt that she had received too much impact today, and she couldn't even care about maintaining the princess's demeanor.
"Sister Hua, do you know the source of this poison?"
In desperation, Miss Wang could only turn to the legendary adventurer around her for help. After all, the latter was well-informed and might have a clue.
Hua stared at Layton twice, as if recalling, but soon she lowered her head, "Sorry, Your Highness, I have never heard of any kind of poison that can continuously weaken people in this way, but not kill immediately. "
"Gee..."
"What about Miss Willis, do you know this kind of poison?"
Lilia looked unwilling, obviously she thought that Layton could still be rescued, and did not give up the treatment.
That is naturally impossible, Wei Lisi has only been in this world for a few days.
"I don't know either."
"Tsk..."
Just as the room fell into a somewhat dead silence, Miss Priest suddenly gasped and spoke the second half of the sentence.
"However, if it's just to save the old man, it's very simple."
"Really! / What did you say!?"
Two excited exclamations sounded at the same time, Lilia was relatively restrained, but the expression of Rector could be said to be ecstatic.
"Please help me... No, please, please save my father! No matter what you want as a price, our Wanhe Fortress can promise you!!"
"Well, don't talk so much, young man."
Leaning sideways to avoid Rector who was subconsciously trying to grab her arm due to excitement, Wei Lisi smiled slightly and turned to look at Her Royal Highness beside her.
"Of course I can save him, and I don't need any reward, because this is a very meaningful attempt for me, but now I am Lilia's guard, and the employer doesn't say anything, so I dare not make a move at will~"
"Ah? It's none of my business...Wait, Willis!"
At first, she was stunned for a moment, and then Miss Wang's delicate face suddenly turned bright red, and she gave Wei Lisi a vicious look, she was so charming, it made her heart beat faster, and even Wei Lisi, who was deliberately teasing her, was stunned for a moment.
"You're still making fun of me at this time... that's alright! Well, my guard Wei Lisi, can you please help rescue General Layton? Both I and Wanhe Fortress need him very much."
"Hee hee...Understood~"
Satisfied, Wei Lisi put away her playful thoughts, restrained her expression, and walked slowly to the side of the weak and dying old man. She first comforted Rector, who seemed quite nervous, with her eyes, and then injected a golden streamer into him from the air. Inside Layton.
"Intelligence detection."
For a moment, the light that seemed to circulate in the body once again sprang up from under the skin, lingering between the young girl's white and tender fingers, and slowly spun.
She was checking the physical condition of the patient in front of her. After all, there were many things that could not be seen with the eyes alone.
In fact, from the moment she first entered this room, Wei Lisi felt a very strange energy lingering around Layton, like a gangrene attached to the bone, concealed and full of obvious malice, not what Rector said at all poison.
It's not that that guy is lying, he probably doesn't know the pathology and the reason, otherwise he wouldn't choose to use medicine to treat Layton.
After investigating the old man's physical condition with the general skill [Intelligence Detection], Willis was even more sure of this.
What caused Layton to fall into weakness was a special energy, to be precise, it should be called a curse.
In [Fantasy World], there are quite a few undead and dark magics that can cause similar states, but the detection skills did not give a specific name for the state just now, that is to say, this is a kind of ability of the world itself, Wei Wei Liz decided to simply name it [Curse of Weakness] for the time being.
This [Curse of Weakness] is like a virus parasitic in the human body, constantly devouring the spirit of the creature. The reason why the medicine can slow down its deterioration is actually equivalent to putting more food into the other party, making it need Spending more time eating is just a temporary solution, not the root cause, and it will lead to more serious problems in the future.
It's normal for healing magic and doctors to be helpless about it, but Wei Lisi couldn't understand why the priests couldn't do anything about it?
Shouldn't the clergy be their natural enemies for such evil things?
I can smell the stench coming out from far away.
"Hmm... As for the treatment method, let's try that first."
Still not taking out her weapon, Wei Lisi sat on the chair beside the bed, closed her eyes, clasped her hands together, and prayed.
"A blessing from heaven."
hum.......
The girl's plain white robe was slightly agitated by the energy, and a holy and warm golden light radiated from her whole body.
The light scattered around and illuminated the entire stone house. Even Lilia and the others, who were far away, suddenly felt comfortable and clear-headed, and all the minor ailments accumulated in the body disappeared.
"This……."
The three onlookers looked at each other, and they all saw the surprise in each other's eyes. It's just that the overflowing energy has such a miraculous effect. If it's in the treatment center...
As if echoing the thoughts in their hearts, in the next moment, the far end of the sky seemed to have received some kind of call, and a bright and huge beam of light projected from the sky, directly crossing the barrier of the house, drawing a line with Willis as the leader. In the center is a huge light circle with a diameter of more than one meter, and the old man beside her is also enveloped in it.
It was all golden everywhere, and in a trance, Lilia and the others seemed to see angels dancing gracefully around the black-haired girl, and hymns wafting in their ears, but when they looked closely, they could only find the girl sitting in the light. Holy figure.
Countless pure energies condensed into solid light spots, which were continuously absorbed by Layton's old and shriveled body. Straits of black energy were squeezed out from his body, and the strong holy energy in the air instantly extinguished it and dissipated it, leaving only A faint shriek of unwillingness.
When all the black air was emptied, the old man's thin figure was like a blown balloon. Under the injection of light, he visibly swelled up to the naked eye, becoming tall and strong, his skin gradually became firmer after removing wrinkles, and his dry short hair was half black and white. It also turned lush and shiny, and was re-dyed back to black.
The divine light from the sky lasted for nearly a quarter of an hour, until the noisy and excited shouts began to sound from the outside, and the light gradually dissipated, revealing Wei Lisi who was still sitting with her eyes closed, and the almost completely changed person. General Layton.
Chapter 20: Chapter 20: Shadows and Undercurrents
"Hmmmm...it seems to be a success."
After Wei Lisi finished her skills, she opened her eyes and looked at the patient on the bed. Although she had changed a lot, she could still tell from his appearance that he was the same person as the old guy before.
After healed, Layton looked seventy-eight percent similar to Rector, but the whole person was more resolute and mature, with a Chinese character face full of vicissitudes, with the unique charm and majesty of an old man. The girl must be dizzy.
It's a pity that Wei Lisi has no interest in men~
At this time, the old general who had been guarding the border for decades was staring at the smiling Willis as if he had seen a ghost, and occasionally looked down at his body, as if The brain can't accept this for a while...
"A miracle... this is a real miracle... what an honor... you, who are you?"
"Just call me Wei Lisi. I'm just a traveler out of interest. Currently, for some reason, I'm temporarily serving as Princess Lilia's guard... Maybe so?"
"Prince's...guard?"
Layton still wanted to say something, but the excited little Rector had already rushed over and hugged him forcefully.
"Father! That's great.....Thanks to the ancestors.....Thanks to the goddess...It's great, it's really great!"
The young general in white armor stared at the old man who had completely recovered to his original appearance, even younger and taller, and tears flowed out uncontrollably.
He turned his head and wanted to express his gratitude to Wei Lisi, but he seemed to be afraid of offending the "God Envoy" who summoned the miracle, and he seemed a little at a loss.
Not paying attention to these things, Wei Lisi just got out of the way, and stood by the side, recalling the feeling of using the skill this time.
Sure enough, the effect of [Blessing from Heaven] in the real world has also become different from before. No, the effect has not changed, it should be said that it has been supplemented, and it is more perfect and reasonable.
This skill can only be tapped at lv80 in the Holy Light skill tree. Not only does it require a lot of healing skills, but it also has some harsh requirements.
If you use a simple classification, [Blessing from Heaven] is equivalent to a 9th-level magic, the effect is to keep yourself in a high-speed full recovery state for a long time, and clear all abnormal effects.
The so-called full recovery, in the game, actually refers to hp, mp, and usually unimportant stamina values, plus at most an sp value that will only appear after lv100.
But in reality, it seems that it has really become a complete recovery in various senses. Willis can feel that Layton's muscles, internal organs, blood, and spirit have all been repaired by leaps and bounds, and the effect of the debilitating curse is also the same. Cleared as expected.
Besides, what should I say...
[Blessing from Heaven] is actually a very funny skill in [Fantasy World].
Don't look at the shocking scene just now illuminated by the beam of light, but this thing actually has its own tracking for the duration. What does it mean? If you fight with this skill, it will be like a stage spotlight on the top of your head Chasing and flashing non-stop, especially in the dark night....
The most embarrassing thing is that this is obviously a single-target skill that can only be used on itself, but the range is three meters in diameter. Any unit within this range can enjoy the same full recovery effect.
Yes, there is no distinction between the enemy and the enemy.
When Wei Lisi clicked on this skill, she was really shocked, but considering that the recovery effect of this thing is really good, and it is also one of the precursors of the ultimate mystery of the light system, in the end, it was not washed away at any cost. preserved until now.
"I always feel that the movement outside is a bit loud... Forget it, it has nothing to do with me anyway."
The noise outside the stone house became louder and louder. Before Wei Lisi had time to say anything, Lilia rushed over, grabbed her sleeves and ran out.
"Come with me!"
"Hey, hey, what are you doing? Don't pull my clothes, hey!"
"Hush! Keep your voice down!!"
.....................
The capital of the United Kingdom of Mankind, the City of Courage.
In the noble and luxurious bedroom, a man in fine clothes was frolicking with two beautiful girls, playing some kind of unspeakable game. At a certain moment, his complexion changed.
"Suddenly something happened, you go back first."
"Huh?~"
The two girls looked quite puzzled, with resentment almost overflowing from their faces, but they didn't dare to disobey the man's wishes, so they could only quickly get dressed, climbed off the bed, and left through the side door.
"What's the matter, disturb me at this time, you are also a man, you should understand that I am very angry now, it is better to have something important.
The man sat on the bed alone, stuffed a piece of fruit into his mouth to relieve his emotions, as if he was talking to the air.
"Layton's curse has been undone, and the opponent's methods are very clever, and I haven't been able to trace back any information."
A low voice echoed in the palace, echoing in all directions.
"….waste."
The man's leisurely tone suddenly became cold.
"Sorry, we made a mistake this time."
