Blood tax

Chapter 509 Uprising Army

Griffith!

Galadia's spirituality is touched.There is a strange feeling, as if touching, hugging, tearing him...

She panicked, waking up from her drowsy exhaustion.

"Potion science, or alchemy, is the knowledge leading to the analysis, separation and recombination of matter. The origin of alchemy is to turn metal into gold, or to pursue the secret medicine of eternal life? No, this does not understand The essence of alchemy."

Professor Thalorian, who came to visit Canaan, held a lecture in the courtyard of the terrace, explaining the theoretical outlook of Potion Science.

Galadia fell asleep for a while just now.The night of hiding, vigilance, and terror had drained her energy, leaving no time to escape and even concentrating became difficult.

Neferti was absent from the lecture.The audience here are all young elves and nobles, as well as senior scholars.With impeccable seriousness, they stared at the formula written by the professor.However, if you pay attention, or throw a cup on the ground, you will find that they can jump up immediately and surround Galadia.

"Humph~"

Miss Elf snorted lightly, and ran her fingers across the hem of her skirt.The mithril table knife was just under the skirt, and was tied to her leg with a hair band. The cold and hard touch on her skin made her twist subconsciously.

Not far away, Professor Salorian was still immersed in his knowledge.

The mystery of Canaan stirs up every now and then.When the mystical breath reaches its climax, the elves will leave the nebula temple, leaving Galadia and Neferti to the dangerous night.When the danger passed, the dignitaries and scholars gathered again to continue their grand plan.

Tonight, Sequence 4 Sovereign "Rule of Law" Provis, Sequence 4 Stargazer "Star Imprisonment" Galilei, and Sequence 4 Demon Hunter "Guardian of Order" Edina Lightblade have arrived successively.They were the three elves and demigods who sat with Lady Aviana on the High Council of the Arcane Council.

Counting Lord Salorian who came to visit, there are five demigods here.

Elders, Chosen, Scholars, and Knights also came.The big shots are almost all there, they are gathered together, it can't be a dance...Galadea is dissatisfied and helplessly braced herself, staring at the formula written by the professor.

The theory and practice of the identification and refining of magic materials and the preparation of potions, referred to as alchemy or potions, no one is more authoritative than His Excellency Salorian.In recent years, the elves' enthusiasm for this knowledge has obviously reached a higher level.

Galadia also knew that Griffith had a "Potion Preparation Notes". The author of the notes was Salorian when he was young.The two had privately read together.

That idiot must have come here, right?He'll be killed... Galadia was trembling with nervousness.Dreams and fantasies have a unique meaning in mysticism, and can even be equivalent to perception.If Griffith really sneaked into Canaan, what awaits him will be a net-like siege and interception.

Canaan will never let go of the Seal of the Chosen One who came to his door.

Galadia was thinking about it uncontrollably, and the more she thought about it, the more frightened she became, until she heard the professor say:

"Potion science is the way to elevate creatures to be equal to gods. Those mediocre people who are full of money and immortality in their minds, and ordinary people who linger in past achievements, will never be able to touch the realm of ultimate creatures.

"If we say that the spell leads to the composition and origin of psionic energy.

"Then, what Potions pursues is a pure carrier.

"Which path is the evolution of the ultimate creature? I think you can try each of them, but creatures have limits.

"Flesh and blood have limits, there is not much room for growth,
"Psychic energy without a carrier cannot be maintained on the material plane for a long time;
"What is God?
"Let us remember, the flesh of psionics, the psionicization of flesh and blood..."

Ah, what...?Galadia woke up with a jerk.Her mind seemed to be empty for a while, and she heard some incredible words in a haze.

Professor, are you serious?Do you all hear what Salorian is saying?

Galadia shuddered from the bottom of her heart, but the audience around her were unmoved, as if they hadn't heard anything just now.

"Good evening," Edina Lightblade, the guardian of order, appeared beside her: "Master Salorian, your lecture may have to come to an end temporarily. Miss Villanoy, the elders have arrived, please do not let My lords have been waiting for a long time."

"Time flies," the Magic Supreme said to the Huntress with a smile, "I hope everyone listened to what I said just now."

Everyone set off immediately, and walked to the meeting place of the temple accompanied by the world's most powerful huntress.

Tonight there will be a special session of the Canaanite Senate, complete with a weapons demonstration and a dance.For a whole night, all the activities were done inside the Nebula Temple.

Despite her imprisonment, Galadia remains one of the highest elves.No one can exclude a shining elf from the caucus.

The noble Speaker of the Canaanite Senate, Provis the "Rule of Law" presided over today's meeting.

"First thing, please His Excellency Tarkin Yamon introduce the current progress."

All the elves looked over, even the elves who were listening in the corridor, serving as guards and attendants held their breath.

"The current progress is," Tarkin said calmly, "we are about to obtain the first artifact fragment."

That's all, Tarkin didn't say another word, no time estimate, and no explanation about the artifact fragment.

"Young clansman, you are as precious as the oracle," Lord Provis nodded with a slight smile, "Then, please, Sir Stanislaus Paulus, explain the second matter on behalf of the army and the archbishop. .

"How's the situation at Bayeran?"

The majestic elf general stood up and greeted all the senate and nobles.

"If your Excellency the Speaker is referring to the progress of the artifact," General Paulus replied, "up to now, if mankind has not obtained the first artifact fragment—the Diamond of Life, it should not be far away."

"Shh-!"

Crowds of senators shouted in disappointment.They are all the most noble among the elves, and at this moment they completely disregarded their manners, patting their seats in boredom and anxiety.

"The war on the Confederacy and Bayeran..." the general raised his voice.This topic immediately revived the spirits present.

"Roland's army has set off. They have assembled [-] troops to besiege Turan Castle. A larger and better equipped army is threatening Xia Miyang, but the direction and true intention of the attack have not yet been ascertained. A decisive battle A battle of meanings could break out at any moment.

"Their God's Hand, according to the information that has been obtained, Aaron is deployed in Homonwarts, Erza Valkyrie went to the Southern Province to pursue the Kingslayer, and the third place...

"Griffith de Ravenel is active in Sebasto. We also found that he appeared near Canaan. According to the judgment of the Military Intelligence Bureau, this is the pre-war reconnaissance of the Bayeran army. Based on this judgment, Ravenel is likely to be the principal commander of the battle."

Galadia's heart was pounding.

The elders at the meeting began to whisper, and it was as if a large group of silkworms had drilled out of the meeting place, chewing on the mulberry leaves and making dense and low rustling sounds.

"As expected, their god's hands were restrained."

"No one can get in our way."

"It's too late, we have time."

"They couldn't find it, we blocked all the exits."

"Must speed up..."

The elves didn't know what they were talking about, and their expressions were sometimes anxious and sometimes relaxed.However, quite a few gazes cautiously turned towards Galadia's direction, and then quickly dodged away.

"Silence!" Speaker Provis slammed his hammer hard, "Silence! For the sake of the truth, please be decent. We haven't reached the discussion stage yet, and Canaan is not finished yet!"

Immediately afterwards, Tyrell Fourstar reported:
"My lords, the untouchables have formed a rebel army. The number of attacks has increased several times in recent days, and a larger-scale attack is brewing."

"They don't have many sealed items, and Beyonders are not strong, they rely on those ridiculous gunpowder weapons..."

After the meeting got into details and debates on proposals, Galadia temporarily withdrew along with the demigods.They are members of the Supreme Council of the Senate. There is no need to spend time on trivial matters. Before the final vote, the proposal will be submitted for their review and comment, and then returned to the elders.

Lady Aviana Sylph also attended the Supreme Council, which calmed Galadia a little.

Edina Shining Blade asked, "Are you sure Naira is dead?"

Provis replied, "Nella von Kiemansha is [-] percent certain dead. His sister, Neferti, is under our protection."

"Salorian is here, why is he at this time..." Edina asked quickly.

"Don't worry, he is our ally," Galilei, the Star Prisoner, interrupted the huntress' worries. "His relationship with Canaan, and our ultimate appeal, are beyond your imagination."

"My lords," Ms. Aviana asked softly, "Who can tell me why, on the eve of the golden age of Canaan, the half-elves and humans who have promised to serve us will do everything Against us?"

"Allow me to correct your wording, ma'am," said Provis, "they are untouchables, creatures without citizenship.

"In order to solve the immediate problem, I have authorized Tyrell Xingxing to organize a team of white death to wipe out the rebels in the city. Each of them is very powerful and can perfectly resist counterattacks such as bows and muskets. Kill thousands of people in a short time..."

He said that he was thirsty, he hooked his fingers, and a waiter immediately brought drinks.

"Let Bai Yelan fight, let the blood flow like a river, and when the dust settles, they will wake up and realize that they are nothing more than..."

The Speaker's words suddenly froze.

Looking at the documents, Galadia raised her head and saw Provis staring at the waiter beside her.His face was filled with disbelief, and he murmured:
"You are……"

The waiter wearing a maid skirt raised the hem of her skirt and bowed to everyone present:

"Humanity."

The lifted skirt reveals slender legs, and a few black straight tubes are tightly tied by the belt.The moment the hem of the skirt was lifted, the rope at one end of the straight tube was ignited and sparks burst out.

Galadia felt her shoulders suddenly pulled back.

"boom!"

An earth-shattering loud noise hit the eardrums as if it wanted to destroy everything.However, the loud noise did not come from the maid.

Together with the dynamite strapped to her leg, she was compressed into a bright flame, getting smaller and smaller, and finally disappeared between Provis's fingers.

The assassin and the explosion disappeared, but the roar and vibration continued one after another, as if the entire temple was shaking.Galadia fell to the ground unsteadily, and heard a familiar voice——

Dense, like the whistling of tearing cloth.

It was a volley of hundreds of arrows, roars and wailing intertwined with each other.The sound of dense footsteps, as well as the collision of metal, approached like a tide.

"Stand up and get out of here." Ms. Aviana took Galadia's hand and pulled her up.

"What happened? What happened?"

……

A strong hand grabbed Griffith's arm and pulled him out of the water.

"Look at you," the man said with a smile, "the majestic lord, was chased by some old women and jumped into the sewer!"

"cut."

Griffith tapped on the helmet so that the poured water would escape.He was wearing heavy armor, and he was reluctant to throw away all the equipment. He had just had a good drink.

His joker lifted his hood to reveal long ears and deep blue eyes full of laughter.

"Halandir is here to report, Lord Blood Lord."

The half-elf ranger Haranduel took a bag of dry gunpowder as he spoke, and handed it to Griffith:
"It's a coincidence that you come early and don't come in! You go, we will open the entrance to the temple and attract the attention of the demigod."

"You? Who? Why?"

"Rebels," Haranduil glanced at his companions who kept passing by, raised his hand and pointed at the temple, "You are not the only one who is saving the world!"
