Chapter 116: Book of Kungu, the fifth level of hell!



"Let's go and take a look inside the village."

Levi waved to Knight Kader and Bray.

Knight Kader was stunned for a moment before nodding quickly.

Then he realized something was wrong, he was the captain.

Why should we listen to Bai Lang, a foreigner?

But then I remembered the other party's brutal look as he tore the snow leopard apart with his bare hands.

He still hasn't calmed down yet.

"It turns out that the Snow Demon can be killed this way."

Bray stroked his chin and said what Knight Kader wanted to say.

Levi was walking on his own. He just showed off a little bit of his skills just now, and it seemed that the two people in front of him were scared silly.

"You are not here to earn the bounty, but to hone your skills," Knight Kader said with a wry smile.

Levi didn't answer, which was considered as his consent.

Knight Kader followed Levi silently.

The man in front of him was obviously not a real wandering knight.

It is impossible for such a strong man to appear among the wandering knights.

It is even more impossible that there is someone so rich that can use so much mithril to forge a long sword.

Judging from the move the other party just showed, he must be a great knight without a doubt. No wonder I felt that he was no simple man at first sight.

The sturdy man in iron armor next to him should also be a great knight, and he is also the guard of the White Wolf!

In this situation! Knight Kader could not think of any other possibility except that the disciple of a great noble was out for training.

Levi, Knight Kader and Bray searched the village but found no other snow monsters, only the bodies of those people.

"This is the consequence of disobeying orders. If it weren't for Lord White Wolf's powerful strength, even we would be implicated in danger." Knight Cardel sighed and patted Levi's ass calmly.

Eventually, they returned to the team.

Knight Kader told the others that the few people who had just gone to the snow monster's lair to hunt the snow monster on their own had all died.

This immediately calmed the restless hearts of others.

The subsequent actions went much more smoothly.

In the evening of the next day, Levi and his team finally arrived at Ice Valley City.

Outside of Ice Valley City, corpses can be seen everywhere.

These seem to be what was left over by the snow demon.

Knight Kader had a heavy expression on his face as he led a group of people quietly into the city.

Levi also followed him into the city.

Skeletons covered with frost can be seen everywhere in the city, which looks like a scene of hell on earth.

"Is there anyone alive here?" Levi's heart was slightly moved.

Although these people had nothing to do with me, I couldn't help but feel indescribable when I saw so many corpses frozen on the roadside.

If before the return of the demon tide, ordinary people in this world could still barely survive under the exploitation of the nobles.

After the return of the demon tide, it became a problem for ordinary people to survive.

Levi was aware of the movements around him. He ignored the large group and quietly left with the Demon Shark.

During the next period of time, he planned to hunt snow monsters near Ice Valley City. After achieving his goal, he would return to Ice and Snow King City and take the Wild Dog Knights to the Icicle Islands.

Kader looked at the white wolf leaving and wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't dare to speak.

With White Wolf in this city, he actually felt an inexplicable sense of security.

"Captain, that man acted on his own!"

A wandering knight looked at Levi who was leaving with dissatisfaction and muttered.

Bray and Knight Kader both looked at him as if he were a fool.

"If you have a mithril weapon made of almost pure mithril like him, and you can tear snow monsters apart with your bare hands, trample snow leopards with your feet, and slaughter more than a dozen snow monsters by yourself, you can also act alone. I don't mind. I hope you can hunt more snow monsters to save the people of our kingdom."

Knight Kader sneered.

After hearing this, the man dared not say anything more.

"Isn't it just because he has a pure mithril weapon? Give me a pure mithril weapon and I can also kill the snow monster." Someone said dissatisfiedly.

Knight Kader ignored these people.

There are too many self-righteous people in this world.

That white wolf and the sturdy man beside him are most likely powerful knights.

Paired with a high-purity mithril sword, as long as you are not surrounded by hundreds of snow monsters at the same time.

There is really no danger in this city.

Of course, we can't be so absolute.

After all, it was Ice Valley City before the snow demon disaster appeared.

As one of the top ten largest cities in the kingdom, it has a permanent population of 100,000.

This was once the city of Duke Lanyu, a great noble of the Kingdom of Eternal Night.

In the first year after the Snow Demon disaster, Ice Valley City became one of the sources of the birth of the Snow Demon.

According to preliminary estimates, one tenth of the city’s residents, or 10,000 people, turned into snow monsters.

Tens of thousands of snow monsters spread out from Ice Valley City, sweeping across the surrounding cities and territories.

In just a few years, only one in ten residents were left alive in Ice Valley City.

Relying on the support of the kingdom, the surviving soldiers and civilians barely fought against the snow monster entrenched in Ice Valley City.

Most of the deaths were probably not direct deaths caused by the snow monster, but indirect deaths caused by hunger, disease, and chaos.

Although wandering knights and the kingdom's military have hunted many snow monsters over the years, a conservative estimate is that there are still thousands of snow monsters in Ice Valley City.

Once the number of snow monsters exceeds one hundred, even a great knight would be in danger of his life if surrounded by them!

After all, the snow demon is not an ordinary person. It is an immortal, fearless, and terrifying undead spirit that only knows how to kill!

Of course, in this Ice Valley City, the most terrifying thing is not these thousands of ordinary snow monsters.

What is truly terrifying are those special and powerful snow monsters that roam around Blue Feather Castle in the center of the city.

These snow monsters, when they were alive, were once retainers and knights under the Duke of Blue Feather, soldiers of the Blue Feather Guard, etc. After they turned into snow monsters, they still lingered around Blue Feather Castle, guarding this ancient castle.

Deep in the ancient castle, the former ruler of this city, the well-known nobleman of the kingdom, the Duke of Blue Feather who possessed the strength of a top knight, also turned into a snow monster.

Some people have seen the Duke of Blue Feather sitting on the throne from afar. After turning into a snow demon, he seemed to be even more powerful and terrifying, with a never-extinguished blue flame all over his body. He would also ride a skeleton warhorse and patrol the castle, like a nightmare knight returning from hell!

Therefore, Blue Feather Castle became a restricted area of ​​the city.

No one dared to go in and find out what was going on. Not even the great knight dared to enter.

However, Kader’s goal this time was not to wipe out the snow monsters, but mainly to transfer a group of survivors.

"I hope that person is okay. He must not go to Blue Feather Castle." Knight Kader murmured in his heart.

Levi and the demon shark swam on the street.

His advanced vibration perception was fully activated and he was on full alert. Although he was powerful, this was the lair of the snow demon and he was not invincible, so he still had to pay attention to safety.

Some survivors who were hiding in some houses poked their heads out, and when they saw the knights coming, they ran out.

An old man came out tremblingly. He was skinny and no one knew how he survived in this city.

"Master Knight, are you here to save us? The Queen sent you, right?" the old man asked expectantly.

"A rescue team is coming. You just need to wait here for them to rescue you." Levi said.

He was busy hunting the snow monster and had no energy or obligation to save these people.

But he could point out a clear way out for these people. It would only take a little effort.

"Okay... Thank you, my dear knight. Please be careful. The closer you get to the city center, the more snow monsters there are." The old man warned and hid back in his own shelter.

For most ordinary people, the survival rate of staying in the city is much higher than leaving the city.

Levi sighed. If possible, he would like to save these people.

But he is powerless.

"But if I hunt snow monsters, it can be considered as saving people. Let's kill more snow monsters."

Levi thought to himself.

Suddenly, Levi looked at his left hand, and his advanced vibration perception detected that there was something lurking in the alley on the left hand side in front of him.

Levi thought it was a snow demon at first.

It wasn't until he passed by that he realized it was a person.

Levi had an impression of him. He seemed to be a mid-level knight among the group of people who set out this time.

When this man saw that his ambush had been discovered, he attacked Levi without saying a word.

The long sword chopped down, but was blocked by the demon shark's body.

Click.

The Demon Shark's huge black palms directly broke the inferior sword.

Then, the Demon Shark punched the man in the chest, and he flew backwards and fell into a pile of debris.

Levi walked over and looked at the mid-level knight.

"Who sent you?" he asked.

The mid-level knight was stunned.

After he heard from Knight Kader that White Wolf had a pure mithril sword, he became blinded by greed and became interested.

He also thought that the reason why the White Wolf was able to kill the Snow Monster was because of the power of the pure Mithril sword.

So he followed without believing in evil. Relying on his familiarity with Ice Valley City, he hid in advance, hoping to kill Levi by surprise through a sneak attack and seize Levi's mithril sword.

Now, he deeply regretted it, and fear filled his heart.

The next moment, his head was separated and he died with his eyes open.

Levi touched the corpse skillfully.

"Three undead cores."

"Sixty gold coins."

"Hey, what is this?"

Levi took out a thick booklet from the body of this mid-level knight.

The cover of the booklet was torn off, so Levi couldn't tell what was inside. However, after he flipped through some of the contents, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise.

The name of the manual is "The Book of Kungu".

According to the manual, Kungu was a master of medicine and medical skills in the Gaia Empire hundreds of years ago. He made those knowledgeable people in the church pale in comparison.

The Gaia Empire is a country far away from the Emerald Kingdom. No one knows how this mid-level knight got this book.

The "Book of Kungu" records a variety of basic medical knowledge, pharmaceutical knowledge, many drug illustrations, and many pharmaceutical secret recipes.

These medicines are not the poisons shown in the inheritance diagram of the Human-Faced Spider's Breathing Technique, but real medicines used for medical treatment. What shocked Levi the most was that this master had actually cracked the secret recipes of many "holy medicines" mastered by the church.

Levi took a quick look and found that there were hundreds of prescriptions recorded in the "Book of Kungu", including several recipes of "holy medicine". These prescriptions were effective for many diseases, including some common diseases of people in this world.

Finally, the owner of this manual mentioned that due to the suppression of the Church of the Earth, he had to hide his medical skills and pharmaceutical knowledge.

The Church of the Earth is the state religion of the Gaia Empire. It believes in the "Mother of the Earth". It is said that this deity has a close connection with the "Father of Heaven".

"This master named Kun Gu is really knowledgeable. Many of the prescriptions he mentioned are of great value. They are truly worth a thousand gold. It's a pity that with the existence of the church, it is destined to not be popularized."

"Most prescriptions are useless to me. With my great knight's physique, although I am not immune to all diseases, I will not get common typhoid fever and other diseases."

"These prescriptions for treating external injuries are of great use to me. I can make some in the future and keep them with me just in case."

Among those holy medicine formulas was the one that Levi bought for Fred, called "Holy Blood Potion".

It can quickly heal some major internal organ and bone injuries and accelerate wound healing, comparable to the "Black Jade Ointment" in martial arts novels.

Levi discovered that there was a material he had seen before in the formula of the Holy Blood Potion.

"Blood of the Earth Dragon Beast."

"The Earth Dragon Beast is really miserable. Its entire body has been developed."

Levi mourned for Earthdramon and memorized the recipe in his mind.

If he had the chance, he would make himself some holy blood potion.

He didn't plan to make money by selling drugs, as that would simply be stealing money from the church and would make him easy to target.

Moreover, he has craftsman-level forging and he is not short of money.

He makes medicine purely for his own use.

Levi found a safe place and let the magic shark protect him while he read the booklet with great interest.

It was already early morning the next day when I finished watching it.

He found himself on the proficiency panel.

The pharmaceutical skills had been stuck at level three for a long time.

Unconsciously, I have reached the fourth level.

In addition, there is a new skill.

Levi——

Pharmaceuticals: Tier 4 (346/20000)

Medical Skills: Level 2 (33/5000)

"The fourth level of the medicine-making skill is not the limit, and the fourth level has no special effects."

Levi looked at the skills, his heart calm.

As for life skills, he just grinds for experience.

But now it seems that the potential of pharmaceutical skills is much greater than he imagined.

"It seems that wizards also need to make medicine. Part of the daily work of wizard apprentices is to assist their mentors in making medicine. If I lay a good foundation for making medicine now, it will be much easier for me to become a wizard in the future."

As for medical skills, Levi just left it to chance.

He had no intention of saving lives and healing the wounded. Given his physical condition, the medical skills of ordinary people would probably be useless to him.

After putting the booklet away with satisfaction, Levi appeared on the street with the Magic Shark.

This "Book of Kungu" can be considered an unexpected gain.

From the tone of this Master Kungu, Levi always felt that this master seemed to know something about wizards, maybe he was a wizard apprentice or wizard himself. With the knowledge and wisdom of ordinary people in this era, it is still difficult to master so many prescriptions, know so many medicinal materials, or even crack the formula of the church's holy medicine.

In the next few days, Levi did not go deeper into the city.

He had done his homework before coming here. There were a lot of snow monsters in the center of the city, especially in the Blue Feather Castle in the center of the city, which was like a forbidden area.

Every time Levi approached the Blue Feather Castle, his spider sense would give him a warning, and the standing hairs on his body would tell Levi that there were unknown dangers in the Blue Feather Castle.

Although this level of danger is not as great as when facing the Fist of the Empire, it is stronger than the Evil Water Fairy.

You know, Levi is now a great knight.

That Blue Feather Castle still brings such a great sense of danger.

That means the castle is not simple at all.

However, the snow monsters on the edge of the city alone are enough for Levi to hunt.

He possesses the strength of a great knight, his equipment is invincible, and he has the help of the magic shark. As long as he is not besieged by hundreds of snow monsters, he is fearless.

Levi's hunting efficiency is dozens of times higher than that of others.

Those ordinary snow monsters are basically no match for Levi.

He didn't even need Frostmourne. Relying on the black energy and armor, plus his own brute force, he could hold down the snow monster, forcibly open its skull, and take out the Frost Heart.

No matter how frantically the snow monsters attacked Levi, they couldn't break his defense.

On the first day, Levi hunted more than a hundred snow monsters on the edge of the city. He immediately completed one-tenth of the goal of a thousand undead cores he set when he came.

On the second day, he only killed sixty snow monsters on the edge of the city because it was becoming increasingly difficult to find snow monsters in the marginal areas.

By the third day, the number was even smaller.

Levi could only go deeper and deeper. Under his clutches, the number of snow monsters in this city was visibly decreasing.

However, as he went deeper, the snow monsters Levi encountered became stronger and stronger. In the beginning, he could kill one with one sword, but later it took a lot of effort to kill one.

These snow monsters should have had the strength of knights' squires when they were alive. Their tolerance to mithril was higher than Levi imagined, which made him frown.

The difficulty of dealing with the snow monster was beyond his imagination.

This is only a quasi-knight-level snow demon. If it is a full-fledged knight-level snow demon, it would be even more troublesome to kill.

But in general, for Levi, as long as it is not a snow demon at the level of a great knight, whether it is a formal knight or a quasi-knight, there is no risk, it is just a matter of efficiency.

With his unlimited supply of Undead Cores, the Demon Shark fought endlessly, and his proficiency in the Seal of Hell soared rapidly.

In order to quickly gain proficiency, Levi often let the Demon Shark do the fighting and did not participate in the battle himself.

And so, ten days later.

Levi's proficiency in the Seal of Hell was directly raised to the fifth level.

Levi——

Seal of Hell: Level 5 (1/30000)

“Isn’t that the limit?”

Today, the Seal of Hell can summon five living dead at the same time.

In addition to the two summoning slots for the Demon Shark and the Demon Mountain, there are three more summoning slots.

However, Levi doesn’t have a corpse of the grand knight level, so it is empty for the time being.

Five great knight-level zombies are already incredibly powerful.

But this is not the limit of the Seal of Hell, which aroused Levi's curiosity.

"Come on, show me your limits!"
