Chapter 813: Bubtney vs. Caesar
Fortress on the Black Earth Plain, fourth floor, Quartermaster's apartments.
— Is this really normal? Nicholas Caesar's excited and slightly sly voice rang out.
— Su Xiao was sitting in front of a table that had dozens of test tubes and various utensils placed on it.
— Woof, " said Bubtney, sitting next to Su Xiao and looking at Nicholas Caesar.
This time, Su Xiao came to see Nicholas himself. Under normal circumstances, Su Xiao wouldn't have had too much contact with this goblin because he was too abnormal and his favorability was unstable, however, with Bubtni's appearance as an assistant, Su Xiao had a way to negotiate with Nicholas, and Bubtni played a major role in the negotiations.
When Nicholas first realized what had happened, he was speechless, but after some interaction, he unexpectedly discovered that this dog was very interesting.
Bubtny was on the same level of cultivation as Nicholas, and the fact that Su Xiao was currently sitting in front of a table with all the equipment already spoke volumes about Bubtny's persuasive abilities.
After a" fair " duel between Nicholas and Bubtney, they eventually became "friends". Coupled with Su Xiao's help, Nicholas was obviously baffled by this man-dog duo.
— Are you sure you got it right?" Is there some kind of energy in his blood? I feel like it's more like a living thing...
Although Nicholas allowed Su Xiao to touch his favorite table with things dear to his heart, the really expensive things he naturally cleared away before doing so.
— I'm not sure, but with your level of alchemy knowledge, you won't be able to touch this area for another ten years or so, "Su Xiao replied as he looked at Carlos' blood.
After Bubtney "arranged" for him to examine Carlos 'blood, Su Xiao got a rough idea of Carlos' situation.
Of course, the fact that the princess of the night elves issued an ultimatum to Nicholas played an important role in this " agreement».
In fact, Nicholas simply had no other choice.
If it was someone else who was in Su Xiao's shoes, Nicholas certainly wouldn't have revealed this fact. If the enemy found out about Carlos 'condition, it would be a huge tragedy, but Su Xiao's alchemy level was higher than Nicholas', which gave him a glimmer of hope.
After all, given his current level, there was no way he could have cured Carlos.
But Nicholas had to take that risk, because if he didn't do something, he would die, and if he could help, he would get a huge amount of resources to study alchemy.
And Nicholas knew perfectly well that Carlos didn't have much time left, given the ultimatum, but he didn't expect the fortress to need to be retaken. This blocked his escape routes, and the night elf princess had marked him this morning, so he definitely wouldn't be able to escape even if he really wanted to.
And so, just an hour after setting up the tag, Su Xiao comes to him with Bubtni, and after some hints and Bubtni's interference, they finally conclude the contract.
According to Nicholas, the legion's commander, Carlos, was already on his deathbed and will be able to live for no more than 3 months.
An unknown energy was destroying Carlos ' body. This energy has been in Carlos ' body since he was a child. As Carlos grew older, this unknown energy became fiercer and fiercer.
At the very beginning, this unknown energy made Carlos ' body stronger, stronger, and more resilient, plus it allowed him to gain a very strong perception. This made the young Carlos believe that she was his gift from above.
However, the white streak didn't last long. As Carlos grew stronger, the unknown energy in his body became fiercer and fiercer, and eventually, it stopped obeying him.
After realizing this, Carlos immediately went to a hidden organization like the alchemist association to make inquiries. As a result, other than the fact that this energy was constantly absorbing his life force, he was unable to find out anything.
Oh, and he was also told that with each passing day, this energy would consume more of his strength and eventually kill him.
After that, Carlos killed the alchemist who told him all this, because he wanted to remove this energy from his body.
Carlos kept this information a secret until he accidentally met Nicholas Caesar. Then Carlos was already 35 years old.
After this meeting, he began to provide Nicholas with all the necessary resources, and in return, he had to find ways to treat this energy.
However, Nicholas ' abilities were severely limited. At most, he could only suppress this energy.
Carlos didn't know anything about alchemy, so Nicholas exaggerated his role and even told him once that without him, Carlos would have died long ago.
Of course, Carlos wasn't stupid. He knew that Nicholas wasn't very good at alchemy, and he knew that relying on him was useless. The lessons he had learned in his youth were still vivid in his mind.
If earlier Carlos had tried to control the unknown energy in his body and transform it into his own, now he was trying his best to remove that energy from his body.
But Carlos ' condition continued to worsen. This energy was present in Carlos ' blood and muscles, making it almost impossible to remove it, at least not in such a short time.
----
In Nicholas's room.
Su Xiao looked at Nicholas. He wanted to find out what this unknown energy was, but first, he needed fresh blood from Carlos.
— This... Can you just come up with a couple of theories? Or will you calculate different options in your brain? "Nicholas obviously didn't want to take blood from Carlos.
Right now, Carlos ' blood was actually filled with an unknown energy. For the most part, there was no longer blood in his body, but only this strange energy, and the blood that was now in Nicholas's test tube had been removed by him a long time ago.
— Stop talking nonsense, Mumble, and bite him.
Bubtney got up quickly and bit Nicholas's leg.
— Ah~, " Nicholas cried out and quickly stepped back. "Vicious dog, we're friends, but you actually bit me, you, you, you... Several tooth marks appeared on Nicholas's pale green leg, and the finger that was pointing at Bubtney was shaking with anger.
This technique was developed a long time ago. Using this technique, any of his opponents became dumber.
Bubtney didn't care about Nicholas ' favor and didn't need access to the exchange shop, so he could safely speak out against him and even bite him.
When he came face to face with Bubtney, Nicholas felt helpless. In terms of strength, he couldn't beat Bubtni, and as for his status... His opponent was an impudent dog, plus he still wanted to learn alchemy from Su Xiao.
Bubtney was just the perfect creature to suppress Nicholas.
— Are you sure you can find a way out? If you can really solve this problem, I won't mind giving you some good stuff from my stock, of course, if you can solve Carlos ' problem on my behalf, I'll just say that you, with my guidance and help, were able to create a cure for Carlos.
Nicholas was Nicholas. Faced with this kind of crisis, he still didn't forget about himself and his wallet.
— Something good? Just as Su Xiao said that, a notification from Heaven appeared in front of him.
[Notification: Hunter has launched a special mission with the help of a special story character, Nicholas Caesar.]
And he spent the next few seconds studying the most embarrassing mission in history.
