Chapter 93: Refining the Dragon-Slaying Pill

  The highest official residence of McDonald's, on the sixth morning.

  Looking at those battered bodies, Chen Le and Aegres couldn't help but fall into confusion. Why did the Holy Light Knights attack them?

  Aegys carefully examined each member of the guard and found nothing that would betray the Radiant Church. Moreover, they repeatedly confirmed that this group had not committed any acts that disrespected the Radiant Church.

  The affairs of the Radiant Church weighed on Aegon like a stone, this massive entity that nominally owned less land than any of the Four Kingdoms but undoubtedly had enormous influence. Half of the people in the Ironfire Alliance believed in the Radiant God.

  Although it has been thousands of years since the God of Light last performed a miracle, his prestige on the mainland is still not to be underestimated.

  Aikes looked at Chen Le with a headache and asked: "Master Arthur, what should we do!"

  Chen Le gave Olan the medicine and lifted his head, saying: "Look at what you want to do! According to the rumors I've heard about the Holy Light Knights, although they are ruthless, their targets are all things that have been judged as heretics by the Church of Light. This time, Olan was attacked, it's really too suspicious!"

  Eggs let out a sigh, he knew about these situations too, but the current situation was really not easy to handle. He believed that if this message were to be spread, then the defensive system of McPhee's castle might collapse instantly.

  "Agus, let's seal off the news for now. After we eliminate the threat of this demon beast, we'll deal with the Holy Light Knights."

  "Ai Ge Si nodded and said: "Alright, Master Ya Se, you configure the dragon-slaying potion first. The threat of the green dragon is too great! If we don't have the dragon-slaying potion, we won't even have a tiny bit of chance to win."

  Chen Le walked towards the door and said: "Is there an alchemy room around here?"

  Aiges nodded and said, "Yes, there is one, in the single-story building 10 meters to the left below. But inside, there's only a pill furnace and a set of pill-making tools, everything else has been moved to the temporary pill-making point under the city wall."

  Chen Le took a glance at the eastern city wall where dust was rising continuously towards the sky and said, "I'm going, Aegrys. I suggest you go to the eastern city wall too, the demonic beasts are attacking again!"

  Aiges nodded and said: "Alright, Master Arthur, I'll go first. Madi, take your people to protect Master Arthur while he refines the medicine!"

  "Right!" shouted Maddie.

  Chen Le patted Maddie on the shoulder and said, "You look like you've got some soldier in you now."

  Chen Le arrived at this dusty alchemy room and looked around the environment with a helpless expression, feeling that he needed to clean it up.

  Soon, the cleanup was done. Chen Le sat down beside the alchemy cauldron and began to think about the steps of alchemy.

  The actual level of the Dragon Slayer potion is a Master-level medicine, and among those known so far, only Chen Le can configure this kind of medicine. Therefore, Chen Le must be good at refining it, or else if he can't even refine it well, then Mai Pu Si Castle will fall, and his own ending won't be any better.

  " Ignite!" Chen Le said in a low voice, while guiding his spiritual energy into the bottom of the alchemy cauldron.

  "Whoosh!" Flames rose, Chen Le began to think about the order of medicine refining, then quietly meditated, waiting for the alchemy furnace to reach a scorching state.

  After a while, the alchemy furnace turned bright red all over, and Chen Le took out the resentful spirit crystal and threw it in.

  "Let me out! Let me out!" The vengeful spirits wailed, originally thinking that breaking through this cage would bring freedom, but the alchemy cauldron had become a new cage, and one that carried out death sentences.

  The vengeful spirits let out a blood-curdling scream, and Chen Le immediately felt the piercing shriek. He sealed off his hearing and muttered to himself: "Sorry, everyone, in order for more people to survive, I can only sacrifice you!"

  "No! Let me out! We've all paid so much, why still torture us!"

  Chen Le's expressionless face guided the spiritual force to decompose the vengeful spirit crystal, but his heart was bleeding.

  In a forest east of McPhee's Castle, a huge green creature flew next to a white creature.

  "Bitch! I just received the notification, the Elder Council agreed to our attack, but they won't send us any reinforcements!" The Green Dragon's nostrils flared with anger, his voice was like a thunderclap, making those ninth-level and below magical beasts tremble with fear.

  The white creature was that strange Bimon, who looked like he had just woken up. He scratched his own foot and said: "Longmei, are we going to continue playing or attack immediately? The evil eyes you brought from underground aren't many. Of course, if you don't want to fight, just say so, I'd still like to sleep a bit more."

  The green dragon smiled, his eyes narrowing into a slit: "Beach, you continue to sleep, I want to play again. I just like to see the desperate expressions of those who think they are human, now give them hope, and then send a large army to break through!"

  Bimonthly named Beach lay down again, waving his hand and saying: "Go go! If there's anything at the time, come find me."

  "Alright, alright! You sleep!"

  Suddenly, Long Yan felt a chill and his wings and legs seemed to lose strength in an instant. He lost his balance and fell to the ground, with cold sweat pouring down like rain.

  Beach heard the huge sound and said dazedly: "Longmo! What are you doing? It's so loud!"

  Long wanted to speak, but his own throat couldn't make a sound either.

  Beach heard Long Mei didn't respond and immediately felt something was off. He hastily got up and looked in the direction of the sound.

  "Ryūmin! Ryūmin! What's wrong with you!" Pichi shouted, grabbing Ryūmin's body. "Do you want me to take you to the elder?"

  Long Yan felt that he could make a sound, and he said with difficulty: "No need! However, we have to do something now. I feel that there is something threatening me being born, Bi Qi, let's launch an all-out attack on the human fortress first, suppress the humans, and then we'll go find that thing that threatens me."

  Beachy nodded and then shouted loudly: "All monsters listen! Get ready to attack with all your might, and you must break through the human turtle shell today!"

  "Roar!"

  －－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－

  On the eastern city wall, soldiers had just finished repairing the artillery and catapults. They sat down to catch their breath in the air thick with the smell of blood.

  "Captain! When can we finish this battle?" a young-looking soldier asked the mustachioed soldier beside him.

  The mustachioed soldier picked up a bottle of wine and said, "It should be soon, huh, who knows? This time the monster attack can be said to be the largest-scale monster attack since the establishment of McPhee's Castle. Counting the days, it has already been three weeks!"

  The young recruit looked at the cracks on the ground like a spider web and said: "Captain, do you think we can survive this battle?"

  The big-bearded, large-mouthed one poured himself a pot of wine and said: "New recruit! If you often think like this, then you're really not far from death. If you still have the energy for such idle thoughts, I suggest you take a look at how other old soldiers do things, learn from them."

  The young recruit nodded and lay down on the ground, gazing up at the azure sky. He raised his hand to shield his eyes from the dazzling sunlight, then began to recall the people back in his hometown.

  "Ina! I will definitely come back! The day I return is the day I marry you!"

  "Mom! I'm sure you must be very happy now that I can finally earn money for our family!"

  "Dad!......"

  "Bang!" A flame stone exploded beside him. Thanks to his timely defense, he didn't suffer any injuries.

  "The monsters are attacking again! There are a lot of them! Requesting special forces support!"

  The new recruit looked at the endless monsters and suddenly felt that today might be his last day.
