"Count Ratness was seriously injured by an assassin while he was seriously ill. He is dying and about to die. He has developed a strong resistance to any alchemical potion and divine magic. No one can help him. The contract requires: After you enter the Arad continent, you can ensure that Count Ratness survives for more than eight hours!
Because there are several sons competing for the title, the empire's envoy will not arrive until eight hours later. If the title is handed over smoothly under his witness, there will be no complications. "
"Contract type: Hired slave hybrid!" (You will still retain your freedom during the mission, but once the mission fails, this contract will be converted into a slave contract, and your life and death will be controlled by others and you will be at their mercy.)
"Zhou Qian left a message: Please help. The contract type is something that the Count Ratness family must request to be added. It is to impose certain restrictions on the healers who come here. We are not deliberately making things difficult for you! Please make a quick decision, because someone is recommending another paladin!"
At this time, the double triangle mark on Du Yuqi's chest flashed, and the prompt appeared again:
An additional privilege for Silver Followers: You can obtain basic information about the offerings (Black Bamboo Bracelet (Reinforced +10)/Small Gold Crystal/Remi’s Assistance).
Black Bamboo Bracelet: Enchanted equipment that can increase movement speed and jumping power, and is greatly strengthened at the same time!
Small golden crystals: Contained within them is a power beyond imagination.
Remi's assistance: Top-level alchemical potion. It is said that when it was being refined, it had already touched the edge of the world's laws, so it has the ability to regenerate severed limbs.
Looking at the three offerings, Du Yuqi took a breath of cold air. He had heard of the fame of the Black Bamboo Bracelet even on Earth. As soon as it appeared in the game at that time, it was in short supply and there was no market for it.
As for the small golden crystals, Du Yuqi had already come into contact with them during his first time traveling through time. However, the small golden crystals placed on the altar now looked a little different from what he had remembered before, but they were basically the same and were still very precious things.
As for the remaining aid from Remi, the four words "regeneration of severed limbs" alone are enough to make it competitive.
At this time, Du Yuqi even regretted that he should not have used up the free opportunity to query detailed information. Now he wanted to obtain accurate information for all three offerings. He hesitated for a while and chose to check the information of the +10 Mozhu bracelet.
Black Bamboo Bracelet: While increasing physical strength and magical defense to a certain extent, it also slightly increases the wearer's movement speed and jumping power.
+10 Additional Attribute: Directly reduce the magic damage caused to you by the enemy.
Note: When strengthening equipment and weapons, a large amount of resources (colorless small crystals/magic gold coins/furnace carbon) are consumed. There is a probability of failure in each strengthening and the strengthening level will decrease (clear). The specific rules are:
Equipment enhancement +1~+3 will not fail. After +4~+7 fails, the original enhancement level of the equipment will be reduced by 1 level. After +8~+10 fails, the equipment enhancement level will be reset to zero. After +11~ fails, the equipment will disappear!
However, each time it is strengthened, the attributes of the weapon/equipment will be improved, and this improvement is linear, which is completely in line with the characteristic that the greater the risk, the greater the benefit.
After seeing the information about the Mozhu bracelet, Du Yuqi was already tempted. He felt that this sacrifice alone was already extremely attractive to him, not to mention the other two equally valuable sacrifices?
Although Du Yuqi was very tempted by the sacrifice and was salivating over it, the "Contract Type: Hired Slave Mixed Type" was like a needle piercing his heart, making him very uncomfortable. He always had an ominous premonition in his heart, which lingered in his heart and could not be resolved for a long time.
Du Yuqi carefully analyzed the situation again. Count Ratnes was first seriously ill and then seriously injured. He probably took a lot of alchemical potions and enjoyed the blessings of divine arts on a regular basis, so now the medicine and divine arts are ineffective.
This situation is normal, because according to Du Yuqi's understanding, alchemical potions and divine arts are not omnipotent. Otherwise, wouldn't all the alchemists, people in the church, and powerful people on the continent of Arad easily live to thousands of years old?
The side effects of alchemical potions are similar to those of drugs on Earth. All medicines are poisonous. If you take too much, toxic substances will precipitate, and there is also drug tolerance. These two things can only be restored after the body has slowly metabolized them. As you age, your metabolic capacity slows down, so the side effects will accumulate more and more, and finally from quantitative change to qualitative change, the alchemical potion will become ineffective or even turn into a poison.
The principle of divine magic is to use the power of faith in gods to accelerate the division and healing of cells at the wound. However, the continuation of human life comes from cell division. Each person is formed from a fertilized egg divided into two, two into four, and four into one. Human metabolism is actually the elimination of aging and dead cells and their replacement with new and newly divided cells.
For example, everyone's hematopoietic stem cells are constantly being renewed. Every 21 days, all the blood cells in your body are renewed. Every 800 days or so, 99 percent of all the cells in everyone's body are renewed, which is equivalent to changing a new person.
It is because cells are in the process of division all the time, so in fact, except for hematopoietic stem cells, the number of cell divisions of each person is limited, and the limit is forty-five to fifty times. The cycle of each division is about eight hundred days. Therefore, even if a person pays attention to health preservation and healthy life since birth, and is lucky enough not to suffer from any genetic defects or mutations and other unpreventable diseases, the maximum lifespan is about one hundred and forty years. Once the division cycle is exhausted, it is the legendary death without illness.
However, every cell division has risks. The more times a cell divides, the greater the risk. When it reaches 30 or 40 times, the probability of instability will double. For example, cancer cells are genetically mutated cells that appear when cells divide. Therefore, the probability of young people getting cancer is not high, but many people get cancer after the age of 40. The so-called last gasp is that cells divide to the limit and then release the last energy together.
Then the question arises, the magic speeds up cell division and wound healing, which actually means artificially catalyzing the cell division cycle, so it is reasonable to say that magic consumes vitality. Therefore, for patients who are already weak and at the end of their life, using magic on them is not saving them, but rather doing more harm than good, and only speeding up the arrival of the last rays of light.
