My Liver Experience in the World of Cthulhu

Chapter 104 Cunning
Crown turned his head and saw Hans holding up his full medicine basket, and smiled knowingly: "Have gained so much?! It seems that the golden shield in my hand is not enough for you."

"It's just a living thing, but now I have no place to spend the gold shield I have earned."

"There will be opportunities for you to spend money and enjoy it." Crown turned back to Del and said: "You go and do things."

"My lord, please excuse me."

Balu patted Hans on the shoulder: "Old man, when you get rich, you want to invite me to the Nightingale Tavern in Peru Town to have some fun."

"No problem," Old Hans agreed readily.

The two of them turned around and left. Croun reached out and rummaged through the medicine basket and said, "These things are worth at least seven or eight gold shields. During this time, I can only get out and have no money left. Come with me to the priest." Lend me some to you."

"My lord, money is tight. If you can wait a little longer, I'll give it to you on credit."

"No, I still have the credibility to pay as promised."

Crown brought the old medicine collector to Nick's room.

"Boom, boom"

He knocked on the door and shouted: "Father, I'd like to borrow some money from you to help me get around."

"Come in."

Crown opened the door and led Hans into the house.

"Bang", the door was slammed shut.

Hans turned around and saw the priest wearing armor and holding a flail standing behind the door, his eyes instantly shrinking.

Croun turned around and took the medicine basket over and said, "Wait a moment, I'll get you a glass of water."

"Sir, no need. Do you want to discuss something? I'll leave first." Hans stretched out his hand to open the door, but the priest pressed the handle.

Crown placed the medicine basket far away, then he walked back, took out a golden light talisman, and stuck it on Hans' face. The golden light talisman soon lit up with a faint golden light.

"Sir, what do you want to do? If you don't have money, I can give it to you on credit."

After a while, Nick looked at Hans who had no abnormality and said: "Your talisman seems to be of no use, I..."

Before he finished speaking, he saw that the old man was like a wax figure placed in the flames. The flesh and blood in his body melted, leaving behind a snow-white skeleton.

The melted flesh and blood turned into a ball of translucent ooze with a hint of cyan, and the golden light talisman was also sucked into it. Its body was like boiling water, with bloody bubbles constantly popping out.

"Ding-a-ling, ding-a-ling," a crisp ringing sound came from outside.

"It looks like an acidic ooze monster in a heavily polluted area, but the ooze monster can only swallow its prey and melt it in its body. It can change into a human form and can copy the fluctuations of a person's soul. What the hell is this?" Nick He stepped aside with a face full of surprise.

At this time, the skeleton tilted and the skull rolled under the table next to it.

Crown was also confused. He originally thought that this time it would be like hunting the sheephead in the livestock farm, and it would require a big fight. But in the end,
"Huh", he sighed, his eyes even colder.

Seeing the old man turn into a puddle of ooze in front of his eyes, he felt quite resentful.

It was difficult for him to be touched by the death of a stranger, but the two of them had been dealing with each other for more than two months, and they were familiar with each other, and the other party was probably caught in the process of collecting medicine, which made him even more angry.

At this time, the skeleton was also swallowed by the monster. Its body expanded violently like an inflated balloon, changing from the size of a basket to half the size of a car, completely blocking the door.

It suddenly stood up, became the size of a sheet, and swooped forward.

Crown drew his weapon, and a ball of orange-red flames shone in the glass lamp holder in the room. The sharp sword drew 'crosses' in the air, cutting the monster into pieces.

The monster made a sizzling sound, a fishy smell filled the well-sealed space, and gray smoke rose.

Its broken body fell to the ground and quickly closed up. It reunited into a group and retreated to the door, but its size shrank by a circle.The sharp special effect doesn't seem to be working, Kroun thought to himself.

"Deal it quickly", Nick's flail also flashed red light, "attack with elemental skills."

The flail hit the monster's body and was completely submerged in it. When the priest pulled out the weapon, the monster's size shrank again.

Crown held his breath and released the Heart-Cleaning Charm.

Then the weapon in his hand slashed rapidly, and more and more gray smoke filled the room.

Under the fierce blows of the two people, the size of the ooze quickly shrank and stopped moving.

Nick took out a bottle of holy water and poured it on the monster's body. The monster was quickly corroded as if sulfuric acid had been poured on it.

At the same time, a fist-sized hole was revealed under the door.

"Fuck, I got tricked." Nick cursed, immediately opened the door and rushed out.

Crown didn't follow, he pulled the monster out of the room and continued to pour the holy water upwards.

The monster has a certain level of intelligence, and knows how to build plank roads openly and secretly to reach Chen Cang. He feels that only by melting the monster completely with holy water can he feel at ease.

He was not stingy with the holy water, pouring it upward one after another.

Not long after, when the monster was dissolved, only the size of a fist was left, which suddenly jumped up and rushed towards Crown's face.

There really was a backhand, and Croun had a thought in his mind while dodging to the side to pass the monster's flight path.

He was always focused, how could he be attacked by surprise!
Waving the sword in his hand, he did not release the source of life. He wanted to see how the monster's physical damage resistance was.

This ball of soft mud was like the dough in the hands of a noodle maker. It was cut into twelve pieces in the air and fell to the ground with a 'pat, pat' sound.

Crown controlled his strength during the attack, and the slice fell not far away from each other.

The slices didn't know how they found each other, but they quickly came together again.

Crown squinted his eyes and observed carefully.

The ooze monsters began to merge, but at a slow speed. It took seven or eight seconds before they merged together again, and their size did not seem to decrease.

The reassembled monster immediately moved like a fluid, at a speed comparable to that of an adult walking quickly.

Physical damage has a certain effect, but not much. This kind of monster can only be destroyed quickly with elemental damage.

After Crown came to a conclusion, he raised his sword and injected it with the hot source of life.

At this time, Nick came back, and when he saw the moving ooze on the ground, his face suddenly became more gloomy.

He raised the flail and slammed the ooze monster into the soil before Crown's attack came.

When the priest lifted the flail again, a gray mass of scorch was left in the pit.

The ringing disappeared and the air became quiet.

Crown put his raised hand down and said with a smile: "It almost escaped. Is there anything missing?"

Nick shook his head with certainty: "When I came out, the monster had not yet escaped from the training ground, and there was no one nearby. It was impossible to find someone to possess it. Now that the ringing of the alarm bell has disappeared, it should be completely eliminated."

"To be on the safe side, let's give everyone some holy water."

The priest nodded: "I will inform you."
