The bone of sin domain is king

Chapter 93 No.20 Scene Nine. Confirmed Conclusion

Fiona's Alchemy Hut, located in the commercial district west of the city, is not yet open for business, but the half-open door leaked a little breeze, the wind chime rang, and a female voice came from the house.

"what is this?"

Fiona had just woken up, and her shop was not supposed to open until the evening. For Fiona, night was her domain, but she could not refuse the guests who came today.

When the hot-bodied woman rubbed her sleepy eyes and opened the door for Rosen, she suddenly felt refreshed.

Not only because the bottle of Charming Fragrance that Rosen brought her was sold that night and sold for a good price, but also because Rosen must be accompanied by troubles of all sizes.

For example, what's in the bottle on the table right now.

Inside the transparent glass bottle are deep purple worms. These worms are as thick as fingers and have no eyes. Their bodies reflect the candlelight and they are crawling towards the mouth of the bottle.

This is the seal insect that Rosen previously collected in the sewer.

He concealed his breath and came here from the cemetery in order to further confirm his conjecture.

"Printworm."

Not caring whether the other party would ask him how he knew the name, Rosen directly told Fiona the names of these bugs.

"Wait, wait, is this the printworm?"

It seems that although Fiona has never seen a real worm, she still has a certain amount of knowledge about these worms. When she heard Rosen's words, she immediately widened her eyes.

"Goddess, where did you get these bugs?"

"Tell me what you know."

Rosen did not answer Fiona's question, but continued to ask for information from her mouth.

"Do you know the 'price of power'?"

Fiona hesitated for a moment before asking slowly.

"Looks like a potion that enhances strength?"

Rosen asked questions knowingly and tried to act stupid.

"Yes, this kind of medicine can forcibly increase a person's strength in a short period of time, but the side effects are also quite obvious. Most people will die suddenly within a few days to a week after taking the medicine. As early as many years ago, It was listed as a banned drug by the Holy Church and the Rainbow Tower."

Fiona said, taking another look at the wriggling worm in the bottle.

"The formula of the potion 'The Price of Power' has been strictly blocked, and most people have no way of accessing it, but according to some vague records, the extract of the printworm is the core material of this potion."

"Are these bugs so powerful?"

Rosen has determined in his mind that the people who breed these bugs and those who spread the fake "holy water" should be accomplices. In other words, the cultists have infiltrated the high-level forces of the Holy Church in Byronville.

"Erosion bugs are divided into mothers and larvae. The ones in these bottles should all be larvae. The larvae have a short life and need to devour energy to survive. The mother can enter a dormant state and can remain motionless for decades without any problem."

As Fiona said, she took a thick and quaint book from the shelf, opened it to one of its pages, and handed it to Rosen.

The textual research and sketches on the printing worm were written in cursive script on the yellowed paper. Rosen glanced at it and was attracted by some of the descriptions.

"The mother's printworm can breed larvae and disperse them. The larvae instinctively seek out hosts to parasitize, provide basic power to the host so that it can find more prey, and then the larvae absorb the strength and divide to spread farther."

Fiona describes in succinct terms the ecological cycle of the printworm, an unimaginable life form.

"Among them, a large part of the power absorbed by the larvae will be supplied to the mother body through some special means. The mother body uses this method to continuously become stronger. Legend has it that in ancient times, someone encountered a gold-level seal insect. I'm afraid it's an old guy that existed from a long time ago."

"Wait a minute, you said that the power absorbed by the larvae will be transferred to the mother, then will a potion like 'The Price of Power' have the same effect?"

Thinking of the information that someone would die suddenly after taking such a potion, Rosen made a bold guess.

"This"

Fiona was silent. Such an idea was not recorded in the book, but according to the way of survival of the seal bugs, the transmission of this power does not depend on life. Perhaps it is also true for leaches.

Seeing that Fiona didn't deny it, Rosen fell into thinking.

I am afraid that the purpose of the cultists in creating the "Price of Power" and this less effective fake "holy water" is not only to seduce others into corruption, but also to rely on these things to spread the larvae of the Seal Erosion Worm openly.

The sewer must be a place similar to a petri dish, which is used to produce a large number of printing worms to make potions and "holy water". These potions can not only strengthen the strength of cultists and their henchmen, but also send power to the mother, and the mother, It is estimated that it is in the hands of the leader of the cult in this area.

This is like the cloud computing network of Rosen's last life. All the creatures connected through the printing worm gather their power to the cloud, that is, the matrix, and the cultists who control the matrix can use these powers to their heart's content. Now, almost Most of Byron Wiss City has become a "battery" for the cultists, supplying them with energy.

This is a situation that makes people shudder just thinking about it.

"Have you ever drank the holy water in the church?"

Rosen calmed down and looked at Fiona again.

"No, no, I don't go out often, so I didn't tinker with that thing, what's wrong?"

This change of subject made Fiona a little uneasy. She didn't go to buy holy water, but she thought it was impossible for Rosen to suddenly bring up this topic. There must be some kind of connection between the two.

"It's nothing, it's best not to drink that."

Rosen shook his head, and when he was about to put away the bottle containing the seal worms, a shrill wail came from the distance.

It was a high-pitched roar like a howling wolf, sending chills down the spine, like the deepest nightmare.

"Then, what is that?"

Fiona had never heard such a roar before, her heart skipped a beat, and she unconsciously broke out in cold sweat.

"I don't know, but it's definitely not a good thing."

A bad premonition welled up in his heart, Rosen put away his things, walked towards the door, and said to Fiona at the same time.

"If you don't want to die too badly, you'd better stay at home."

"what!"

A trace of panic flashed in Fiona's eyes. She looked outside the door and found nothing.

There was another howl, this time closer, and, after the leading one, more scattered howls sounded, accompanied by the sound of something breaking.

Rosen became alert, he put his hand lightly on the hilt of the big sword, and then pushed open the door.

Then, Rosen saw a horrifying scene.

A tall monster with a body covered with slippery tentacles was gnawing at a woman's abdomen. There were two or three others wandering not far away, seemingly looking for prey.

This was an extremely curious scene. Rosen had never seen a similar scene in his previous life or this life. He felt the surroundings become dark, and Rosen raised his head.

In the sky, the dazzling sun has long disappeared, leaving only a moon hanging high.

A bloody moon.
