Lord of Glory

"You, you, and you. Be more nimble. Go in and see what this priest is up to!" Once Paladin closed the door, Harvey had a gloomy face and instructed the three soldiers thus. It was not for Harvey to wonder. A priest suddenly wants more than 20 prisoners! What does he want to do? Even if Harvey is not suspicious.

But because his good friend Kaleqi had instructed that this Paladin was unpredictable. Do not provoke him. That's why he didn't rush in with his men and point his sword at Paladin and ask why. Only let three subordinates secretly see what he was doing. It is already very respectful. After all, they are not considered friends, and even the value of mutual use of contact is very fragile, and it makes sense to turn the other cheek.

But Harvey waited a full ten long minutes before he felt something was wrong. When he instructed a soldier to sneak in after half an hour. Paladin opened the door. "Captain Harvey, what's wrong with you? Why are you still waiting here? Could it be that you want to come in for a cup of hot tea?" "Father, have you seen my men?"

Harvey realized something was wrong, but he pretended to be calm and asked. But Paladin who responded to him just shook his head hypocritically. Suddenly, a bag of thirty gold coins was thrown to Harvey. He said in an unfathomable tone: "Take it well, captain, there are four more prisoners you gave me. I can't let you be wronged." After finishing speaking, he smiled contemptuously and slammed the wooden door shut. Only Harvey, who was embarrassed, held back for a while, and then growled in a low voice: "Let's go!"

Paladin, who stayed inside, handily dragged the twenty-four unconscious people into the basement. Those four unlucky people's clothes and armor were also pulled off and thrown to the backyard. Once in the basement, the light of the white phosphorus flowers blooming on the piles of corpses next to that shone somewhat eerily in the gloomy basement, and in the midst of this eerie darkness, two crimson eyes suddenly lit up.

A low and feral voice came over. Paladin casually put an unconscious woman on the cold floor, fiercely glared at the monster in the darkness and shouted: "Aberleigh! Hurry up and come over to help me, don't you want to fill your stomach!" Sure enough, hearing Paladin's reprimand, the monster blinked those crimson eyes and its huge body came out from the shadows. It was none other than Aberleigh who had been locked up for a day.

By the time Aberleigh carried all twenty-four people to the basement. Paladin looked at the basement full of piles in front of him, casually pointed to a middle-aged woman with a fat body and said to Aberleigh: "Take it to eat. Don't bring back the bones." Aberleigh immediately let out an excited ooh-ooh sound, he lifted the fat woman onto his shoulders and disappeared into the church in a few steps.

Paladin closed the alchemy door very calmly and began to carve the Philosopher's Stone alchemy formation on the ground once again. Pouring water, spreading soil, lighting fire, blowing wind. When the alchemy door in the basement was opened, Paladin came out once again. In his hand there was an additional Philosopher's Stone as big as a potato! Correspondingly, there were twenty-three more terrifying dry bodies in the basement. Paladin returned to his room and his own alchemy table.

Paladin backhandedly locked the door of the room, took out a scale and placed it on the table. The thumb and index finger of his right hand were pinched together and suddenly opened, and a golden beam of light appeared between the two fingers. Just see Paladin gently slice, the Philosopher's Stone immediately separated in half. Even be able to see from the cut openings inside the vague emergence of human faces. These are the result of flesh and blood and soul being imprisoned.

Ever since, the Paladin at this moment is like a financial manager, who keeps measuring and cutting carefully, so that the two separated Philosopher's Stone can be balanced on the scale. After this, he cut a thumb-sized Philosopher's Stone out of it and put it on the other side. Paladin has already made a plan, and the fusion of light elements will seriously consume his vitality. Then just divide the Philosopher's Stone into two pieces to absorb, one increases life, and the other fuses light elements. Wouldn't it be enough to offset two by two? The extra portion will increase your own life, so you can be prepared.

Satisfied, Paladin swallowed the extra Philosopher's Stone in one gulp. Immediately, the Philosopher's Stone, which looked as solid as a stone, entered his mouth, as if it had suddenly turned into water, and instantly flowed into his stomach, spreading to his limbs and bones. Indescribably comfortable and carefree. When the sky was bright and the sun was shining into the room, the pain of fused light elements still made Paladin miserable, and finally he shook his head and fainted on the ground again.

Still in that dream, Paladin sat in the circle of gluttony, looking at the black baby in the distance. After touching it, he didn't feel any pain anymore. The broken arm where the left hand was missing turned out to be empty and chaotic. Paladin was not only surprised by this, he was even more surprised by the black baby! At this point, babies can no longer be used to describe this thing. As if he had grown up, a pure black boy sat opposite Paladin, with an intriguing smile on his face, and he kept calling: "Feed me, feed me..." "Do you know me? Why did you eat one of my arms?" What's your name? Do you have parents?" "Hmm..." To Paladin's surprise, when he finished these questions with no expected answers, the teenager who kept repeating feed me feed me, suddenly nodded his head. The small hand gradually raised.

Paladin's pupils shrank violently! Because the black boy raised his finger and pointed at Paladin himself, and squeezed out the boy's slightly shrill voice: "You..."

"Hoo hoo hoo..." Paladin suddenly turned over and sat up. Cold sweat soaked his robe. Every time he saw this black monster, Paladin was surrounded by the purest fear. That feeling is really hard to say. But at the next moment, something happened that made Paladin see the light of the clouds and smile happily! Taking a closer look, the whole body is surrounded by as many as thousands of golden light elements!

However, the smile that had just bloomed on Paladin's face didn't last long, and suddenly collapsed again. Because he counted carefully, he suddenly found that although the number of golden elements had increased, there were only 1004! "That's all? This is the Philosopher's Stone for 11 people! If you count 60 light elements, it's at least 1,500!" Paladin's face showed shock and solemnity. Suddenly he realized what he really wanted. Anyone could see the frustration on his face clearly.

"The amount of elements for seven people is 420 pieces. And I was six hundred before. It adds up to just over a thousand. But there are still four people left to come with their share. . 1004...." Paladin suddenly sighed deeply, mixed with an undisguised loss and frustration: "After breaking through the elemental amount of one thousand, an ordinary person's life can only provide one element? It's too harsh, it's simply too harsh!"

Paladin stood up in annoyance, with the frustration of a long and endless road ahead on his face: "This is not asking me, using thousands of humans to refine the Philosopher's Stone! At this rate, to become truly strong, a hundred thousand, a million elemental amounts! Not to mention a diocese, even if I eat up all the people in the Principality of Kasmi, it's not enough!"
