Sword of Daybreaker

Chapter 237: Gradually wake up

Views:

Gao Wen had to lament the magic and convenience of those healing spells. This world does not have advanced medical thinking, nor does it have a complete understanding of microbial infection, human anatomy, cell biology, etc. For ordinary people, ordinary wound infections It is possible to kill a person, but at the same time, those masters of the holy light and the way of nature can use magic to achieve "healing" beyond imagination. As long as they can afford the price, only half of one person will be left People who have a good breath can even let the wound heal after a few minutes and turn the corner.

There are no druids in Kantland, but there are several priests of the Holy Light, one of whom lives in the small church in the castle all the year round. He is the religious advisor of the lord, and at the same time bears the responsibility of maintaining the health of the lord. With timely notification, the holy light priest quickly rushed to Victor Kant's study and used the holy light technique to save the old viscount's crumbling life.

Gao Wen stood aside, watching the pastor's busyness. The druid potion has replenished the much-needed vitality for Victor Kant, and the knight's "Blood Inspiration" quickly replenished the viscount's lost blood by overdrafting this part of the vitality. Now, the holy light of healing has already Covered on the wound, the priest prayed devoutly while carefully holding the handle of the dagger, and then he chanted the name of the God of Holy Light, and quickly pulled out the weapon.

The Holy Light immediately agitated, healed the wound quickly, and at the same time adjusted the damaged muscles and bones inside the wound. During this process, the Holy Light Priest kept praying to the God of Holy Light to maintain the healing effect on the Viscount. interruption.

Gao Wen nodded silently, thinking that he could be regarded as seeing a priest of Holy Light with a normal painting style. Where did the priests who use the dragon-raising bone-setting technique and the one-inch fist clearing technique come from

The treatment process should last for a short while. The servants were gathering around his master. Gawain looked around and began to check every corner of the study on his own.

No one questioned his actions. The ordinary servants believed that the Duke was inspecting the scene of the murder, while the housekeeper Carter, who might have obstructed him, had turned into a murderer and fled the place.

Gao Wen's eyes moved in this closed study room, his brows were slightly frowned.

This is not a place suitable for a study room. Although it is located on a higher floor of the castle, it has a rather poor lighting environment. The narrow and uncomfortable narrow windows of classical castles are particularly prominent here. There is only one narrow window in the entire room. There are no windows, which makes it unable to bring much light into the room even when the sun is the brightest throughout the day, and the magic spar lamps embedded on the walls obviously have some problems: even if all the lights are on, the room is shrouded in darkness. A hazy and dim atmosphere.

No, it's not necessarily a problem with the magic spar lamp...

Gao Wen's eyes fell on one of the lamps. The light of that lamp was actually very bright, but its light seemed to be bound by some force, so it couldn't fill the whole room.

That kind and cheerful Viscount Victor usually works in such a weird study

Gao Wen came to one side of the room. There was a huge bookshelf next to the wall. A large number of beautifully bound books with thick covers were neatly arranged on the bookshelf. Many of the spines of the books were even inlaid with gold and silver. Ornaments, typical of aristocratic collections.

In Gao Wen's view, this is a multi-functional embodiment. It can be used when knowledge is needed, and it can be used to smash people when self-defense is needed. When the family is in trouble, it can even pry the gold off the book cover as start-up capital to revive the family. In addition to being easily slapped on the face and paralyzed when lying on the bed at night, these heavy and gorgeous books are simply a model of "knowledge is power and money at the same time".

And in fact, most of the books in this era are so heavy and gorgeous. They are "luxury goods" that only rich people can have. Sometimes the number of books in the castle even directly shows the wealth and background of a nobleman. I may not read it a few times in my life.

But Viscount Kant is obviously not just collecting these books to save face. Most of the covers of the books are worn and deformed to varying degrees. Glue, leather, gold and silver foil repair traces, this is what a book lover would do.

It's just that Gao Wen glanced over a book, and found that all the repair marks seemed to be left a long time ago, the gold and silver foils had changed color, and the glued leather was also severely worn. And there was not even a newer book on the entire bookshelf.

It seems that after a certain time, the Viscount Kant was no longer interested in these "ordinary books"

So what is he doing? The magic tome left to him by the Eternal Rest Sect

Gawain turned to another small table behind the desk. There were some temporarily unused documents and files piled up on this table. Gawain's eyes were suddenly attracted by one of the unfolded papers.

Some account transactions were roughly recorded on it, which seemed to be the original data that had not yet been included in the account book, and the most conspicuous among the several records were the remuneration paid to a certain mercenary team and the deposit for the next operation. On the specific employment content, the words "collect raw materials" are written.

Is this the record of mercenary catching refugees? evidence

Gawain frowned, and was about to approach the paper, when he suddenly heard a small commotion from the servants behind him, and a little extra light shone into the slightly dimly lit study room.

Gawain looked back in surprise, and saw Viscountess Lilith Conde standing at the door. This frail lady who was as thin as a shadow was carrying a lantern. She probably used the light of this lantern to walk all the way from the North Tower. She ran here; her eyes widened, she stared blankly at Victor Kant surrounded by the crowd, her face was full of fear and astonishment.

"What's wrong!?" Lilith exclaimed, her voice broken, "Who... who can tell me... Victor is... what's wrong?"

"Madam, Madam, please don't panic, Master Viscount is fine," the priest of Shengguang quickly stood up, "Thank you for the God of Holy Light's care, Master Viscount just suffered some skin trauma, plus convulsions and coma, Gao Duke Wen gave him the potion in time, and with my treatment, he is already safe."

While talking, the Holy Light priest raised his hand and tried to summon a holy light to appease the terrified lady, but Lilith Kant ignored the priest and ran quickly to Victor's side. After checking that the other party was still breathing, she breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Gao Wen: "Thank you... Thank you for saving him."

"I should do it," Gawain nodded slightly, and then looked at the servants around him, "There are too many people squeezing in here. Your master needs fresh air. Except for the personal servants, everyone else should leave."

Gawain was not the owner of the castle, but no one objected to what he said at this moment, and soon most of the servants left the room, and after confirming that the healing spell had taken effect and that the viscount himself no longer needed to cast additional spells After that, the Holy Light priest also withdrew.

Viscount Kant's wound had healed, and a senior servant wiped the blood on the Viscount's body, and the latter finally woke up slowly.

It took him a long time to focus his eyes on the situation in the room. He first saw Gao Wen, and was stunned for a moment, then saw Lilith standing in front of him, and his expression immediately became tense: "Honey! You Why are you here?!"

"I... I heard that something happened in the castle..." Lilith Kant seemed a little flustered, "I came to see you..."

"I'm fine," Viscount Kant waved his hand with some difficulty, causing the servant to back down, and then tried to stand up weakly, but the effort failed. Lilith immediately stepped forward to support him, and he turned back Grabbing Lilith's arm, "You don't have to worry, but you are running here at this time, which makes me very worried."

"I... I'm fine," the Viscountess said hurriedly, and quickly nodded to Gawain, "The Duke saved you immediately, and even called the pastor, my dear, what happened?"

"Thank you for your shot," Victor Kant immediately thanked Gao Wen, frowned and slowly took a breath. The wound has healed, but the pain from the dagger piercing into his chest still seems to remain between his heart and lungs, "Yes Carter, Carter suddenly attacked me, I was completely dumbfounded, he seemed to be a different person, he stabbed me, and said some weird things, saying that there were intruders in the castle, what else should I protect... It's stupid!"

Immediately afterwards, the viscount seemed to react suddenly: "By the way, where did Carter go? Did he attack others?"

Just as Gao Wen was about to answer, a shadow suddenly formed in the study, and Amber's voice came from the shadow: "He ran away."

The half-elf lady appeared, her body was almost soaked by the rain, her long ears trembled in the air, and she turned to look at Gawain: "That old butler is definitely not an ordinary person! I saw him in the castle He ran like flying on the steeple of the castle, the figure disappeared and appeared again, I couldn't catch up with him with the shadow step, and finally I chased him to the stables behind the castle, where he disappeared, I was completely Can't find it."

Gawain was taken aback: "Someone you can't even track down?"

"Yeah, at least he's a demigod," Amber said very confidently, "After all, I'm the Goddess of the Night Goddess..."

Gao Wen pretended not to hear this sentence.

"He ran away, and I'm afraid he will become a threat," Gawain looked at the Viscount and Viscountess, "I suggest you strengthen the defense of the castle."

"That's for sure." Viscount Kant nodded vigorously.

And Lilith also nodded slightly, but suddenly covered her forehead, and her body shook slightly as if she had lost support.

Viscount Kant suddenly looked nervous: "My dear?"

"I... I'm a little dizzy," Lilith covered her forehead with a slightly painful tone, "I'm not feeling well..."

"You have been away from your room for too long!" Viscount Kant said in a serious tone, "You have to go back to rest quickly, don't worry, I will send twice as many guards to guard the north tower, and as long as I am a little better, I will go there to meet you." You are together."

"Okay... okay," Lilith Kant stood up unsteadily, obediently obeying her husband's arrangement, and then she picked up the lantern next to her, and slowly walked towards the door of the study.
