Without informing anyone, Xiaoyudian and Kai sneaked out of the Undercity. Of course, Xiaoyudian did not forget to leave a letter when she left.
The letter was found by the maid who came in first to clean up. She didn't find anyone guarding the wounded. She let out a scream as soon as she came in, awakening countless necromancers who had already healed their injuries. The next moment, the letter was It fell into her hands and set it on Ron's desk.
As expected, Ron was furious as soon as he got the letter. Xiaoyudian and Kay left without saying goodbye and affected his deployment. Lost.
The most terrible thing is that the letter did not mention why they left, which made Ron feel uneasy.
He was pacing up and down the room irritably. Juliana, Kadina and others were in his office. Everyone frowned urgently, looking preoccupied.
"Little Yudian really doesn't know what's important. What time is it now? It's a time of war. Everyone's heads fell to the ground by accident. What did she think it was? A game?" Ron almost growled. The meaningless letter was shattered into countless fragments in his hands.
Basara was also standing in the crowd, tears of grievance rolled in her eyes, she was indeed partly responsible for the little rain, as a sister.
"Ron, I hope you'd better calm down!" Kadina said comfortingly, and then she turned to Bashala, "Bashala, you really don't know where Xiaoyudian took Kay?"
"I don't know, and she didn't tell me!" Basara shook her head and said aggrievedly, her voice was choked with sadness and anxiety.
Ron couldn't bear to look at Basara's expression, but he was still ashen-faced and refused to relax.
Kadina comforted Bashala for a while, calmed down her emotions, and asked, "What did you say in Xiao Yudian's letter?"
"Nothing!" Ron shook his head, "Just take Kay out to do some errands, and come back as soon as the errands are done!"
"Do something..." Kadina pondered for a moment, then said after thinking, "Maybe it's not as bad as you think! They should be back soon after finishing their work!"
"I hope so!" Ron sighed. "I also believe that Xiaoyudian didn't take Kai away for no reason. She should know what it means..."
The matter of the Holy Legion has been hanging over Ron's mind like a shadow, making him almost out of breath. Their army did not go far, but stationed in the nearest city, and they will launch an attack at some point, maybe today , maybe tomorrow, maybe... now!
Ron thought about it quickly in his heart, and stood up with a "shua—"
The departure of a strong person in the sanctuary, what some caring people will think of, although what they think is not true, it will have a great impact on morale.
Ron continued, "Fortunately, we have three sanctuary powerhouses in the dark city, which is enough to make the Holy See dare not act rashly..."
"... I believe that our combined forces of the Scourge Church and the Kingdom of Ebia will surely win the final victory..."
…
On the northeast side of the Holy Roman Empire is a province called "Stansfield". As the territory of the Barrow family of the pharmacist family, it is located here. Of course, just a small piece of land is enough to make people The Barrow family lived a luxurious life. In the Holy Roman Empire, the Barrow family was one of the nobles and made special contributions to the empire.
The Patriarch of the Barrow family, that is, Xiao Yudian's father, even enjoys the title of nobleman.
There are two major pharmacist families in the Holy Roman Empire. In addition to the Barrow family, the other is the Neind family. In order to compete for the benefits of the pharmacy, the two families have been fighting openly and secretly. By the generation of Xiao Yudian's father, Liang Zi has formed a deep and deep relationship. deep.
Both families have launched their flagship products. One is the Neind family, which is based on replica life potions, and the other is Barrow, which is famous in the mainland for its "antidote potion", "acceleration potion" and "dispelling potion". Family, of course, apart from the famous life potion, the Barrow family doesn't have it.
In the eyes of outsiders, the behavior of buying life potion from a plane store, infiltrating it with water and selling it has no technical content, but the Barrow family doesn't think so.
Pharmacy is a subject that is extremely complicated and contains profound mysteries. Although it is easy for the Neind family to do it, the Barrow family cannot do it. They dream of getting the formula for the Barrow family to seep water into the life potion. The elemental composition of the potion is extremely stable. Even a tiny bit of impurities may invalidate the entire bottle of life potion. The formula for seeping water in it was also researched by the Neinde family with great effort. Hundreds of millions of money were spent in it. count.
Although the curative effect has been reduced, the number of life potions has increased, which has brought a lot of wealth to the Neind family. He regards this formula as a family heirloom, and has never shown it to outsiders. The Baro family racked their brains and failed. have to.
In the generation of Xiaoyudian's father, the conflict between the Neind family and the Baro family has almost become public. The two families have conflicts and fights, and even send strong men to kill each other's territory. This is almost the same as leading the army to attack. For this reason, Charles XXVII of the Holy Roman Empire was very troubled. He was upset when he saw the representatives of the two families, and he had to deal with it.
In the end, Charles XXVII persuaded the two sides to give up.
However, Xiao Yudian's father is a genius. He has already demonstrated a very high talent for pharmacists at a young age, and he is valued by the Barrow family. However, he obviously has no interest in fighting with the Neind family. In the research of medicine, this also laid the root of disaster for the subsequent changes.
The Neind family has long noticed that this young man who became the head of the family has continuously sent spies to spy on the news, and even installed strong men in the Baro family. Many strong men serving the Baro family are actually Neind The members of the family, but Xiao Yudian's father didn't notice, he was immersed in researching medicine.
When he succeeded in researching the stamina potion, he was discovered by the spies sent by the Neinde family and secretly reported to their patriarch. The patriarch was overjoyed and immediately took action against the Baro family. Dozens of division-level powerhouses, master-level The strong man rushed to the Baro family, cooperated with the spies who had been ambushing inside, and defeated the Baro family in one fell swoop. Xiaoyudian's father fled in a panic, but it was too late. He was killed by the strong man sent by the Neinde family. Death, and several of Xiao Yudian's older brothers were also killed.
That night, the corpses of the Barrow family were strewn all over the field, the flames shot into the sky, screams and begging for mercy were heard endlessly, and the wealth of the Barrow family for hundreds of years was reduced to a mass of ashes in the raging fire.
In the end, only Xiao Yudian disguised herself as a little beggar and escaped. Since she was a girl, the Neind family didn't pay much attention to it, but when they learned that she had taken away the formula of the stamina potion, they really paid attention to it. They sent someone to look for them, but they were made a fuss by Ron in the city of Asinaris, and she took the opportunity to flee to the Roland Empire, which made the Neind family regretful. Later, when they learned that she fled to the Orc Empire, the Neind family immediately contacted her. Moran, catch Xiaoyudian, before Moran handed over, Xiaoyudian met Ron again, and the deal between the Neind family and Moran failed.
An abandoned manor, with ruins and broken tiles everywhere, and traces of being blackened by the fire everywhere, it is not difficult to imagine how luxurious this place was before the fire.
Xiao Yudian stood in front of a wall that had been pushed down, gently stroking the cracks on it, her face was full of sadness, and she remained silent for a long time.
"Xiaoyudian, this is your home..." Kay asked, looking around in amazement.
"Yes, this is my home..." Xiaoyu nodded, she stood up, her slender body trembling in the cold wind, her long eyelashes dripping with tears, "Unfortunately, it is no longer there …”
"I'm sorry!" Kai's face was full of apology, he looked around carefully, and then said, "Xiaoyudian, is the formula for the life potion left by your father here?"
"If they haven't found it, it should be here!" Xiao Yudian wiped away her tears and nodded, "Let's start looking now!"
The two of them rummaged through the ruins of the Barrow family, not letting go of even the tiniest crack.
However, even as strong as Kay, he did not expect that every move of the two of them would fall into the eyes of others.
Watch the guards!
This is a special magic item, which has the function of stabilizing the body. Once outsiders invade, it will send an alarm to their masters, and at the same time monitor the surrounding area. The questions and answers of Kay and Xiao Yudian are all heard. Clearly.
"Life potion formula? The Barrow family actually has a life potion formula..." An old woman who was in charge of monitoring the Barrow family was also the master of the watch guard. Her eyes immediately lit up when she heard the conversation between the two.
This old woman is from the Neyinde family. At this moment, she is not in the territory of the Baro family, but the Neyinde family, which is a hundred kilometers away. She learned everything about this place through monitoring the guards.
"No, I have to tell the Patriarch immediately!" The old woman laughed, and a gleam flashed in her cloudy eyes, "Hehe, I have made great achievements again, I wonder how the Patriarch will reward me?"
As she spoke, she walked quickly to the master's study.
"What? You said that the Barrow family actually has a life potion formula?"
Maddox, the current head of the Neind family, is an old man in his sixties. He has a fat body, black hair, and no wrinkles on his pampered face. Although he is in his sixties, he looks like a He was almost middle-aged, and he was too shocked to speak when he heard the old woman's report.
"Judy, are you sure you heard correctly?" Maddox said, his face full of disbelief.
"Yes, my lord, I swear!" said the old woman named Judy, holding up her finger, "because I found Miss Rosie of the Barrow family, and a very young boy, they are in the ruins of the Barrow family In search of the recipe for the potion of life left by her father... ”
"Then what are you waiting for?" Maddox's eyes lit up when he heard this, "Since what Miss Rosie said is probably correct, if she really has the formula of the life potion in her hand, plus the formula of her stamina potion, it's not a gift. Is it the wealth that comes from your door? Haha, our Neind family is about to prosper... "
"Congratulations, Master Patriarch!" Judy said with a slight smile, with a sly look on her face.
"Gather all the strong members of the family immediately, and then go to the Barrow family..." Mark Doss waved his hand excitedly, "Haha, the life potion formula... The Barrow family still has this thing, I can't wait for a moment! Hurry up! Come on, don't let them get away!"
