Doomsday Code

Chapter 729 Lich's Treasure

After putting the ring down, Chen Cheng no longer felt the excitement he had just felt when he saw a mountain of gold. Instead, his mood became heavy.

Because it was very obvious that he had found three space rings when he touched the corpse this time. When did this kind of treasure become cabbage on the street?

Before, I was shocked by the super giant magic and thought that this was a world of immortal cultivation where everyone had a space ring.

Now that he had calmed down, the more Chen Cheng thought about it, the more unsure he became.

But even though he had no idea, he still had to continue checking.

After picking up the second space ring, refining it and opening it, Chen Cheng found that the contents inside were as rich as ever, as expected.

There is no mountain of gold here, but there are piles of various magic crystals in twos and threes. At the same time, in the center of the ring space, there are various strange magic potions refined by the lich.

I don’t know if this lich knows that his mental state may sometimes have problems, because all the bottles and jars here are labeled.

Here are monster specimens used for lich experiments, as well as some precious potions and natural treasures.

At the same time, there is also the useless elixir of immortality that he developed.

The uselessness here does not mean that this potion cannot prolong human life, but that after prolonging life, it will turn people into irrational monsters.

The lich also carefully attached a lot of experimental notes left over from his experimental research.

Only then did Chen Cheng confirm that the guy he killed was not an alchemist, but a lich.

Lich is an extremely ancient word.

Before the rise of the human race, the name used by the human race to refer to the first group of people who pursued supernatural powers was "witches".

A lich is a wizard who is even more unscrupulous than a witch.

They act in a treacherous way and don't like to get close to people. They like to hide in the mountains and forests to find wild monsters and spirits to conduct their experiments.

However, witches and liches as a whole are not considered to be extremely evil to humans. They initially gained power in order to protect their own people.

Later, the lich wanted to use the witch's methods to achieve the goal of immortality.

Just like the records Chen Cheng saw in this ring, the Lich's experimental subjects were all forest goblins and monsters.

Of course, this doesn't mean that this guy is a good person. He also recorded the experiences of some greedy nobles who were deceived by him into buying his untested potions in order to prolong their lives, and then turned into monsters.

It can be said that the biggest difference between him and alchemists is that he will not use humans for experiments unless it is necessary.

This is also the way for the lich to survive.

So far, although there are fewer and fewer liches, they have never become part of the army that shouts and kills like alchemists.

However, this time the lich's behavior clearly crossed the line, and Chen Cheng did not find any record of this action in his experimental notes.

The only connection is that he conducted his last blood purification experiment before the beast tide started, but the items for this experiment were not in this ring.

The final results of the experiment were not recorded.

His consciousness exited the ring space. He decided to wait for an opportunity to copy the things inside and hand them over to Adolf and the others.

Although this lich deserves to be damned, some of his potion experiments are indeed very useful.

For example, there is a magic potion called Tempering Liquid. At first, Chen Cheng really thought that he saw the Tempering Liquid from the world of immortal cultivation.

However, after reading the lich's description of the experiment with the quenching fluid, I realized that this thing should have been invented by the lich himself in order to strengthen his physique, and it was not some quenching fluid passed down from the world of immortal cultivation.

The magic potion used in this quenching fluid is not very precious. If it can be reproduced, then after the army is reformed in the future, this quenching fluid can be used to improve the physical fitness of soldiers.

For example, his new students can be rewarded with the opportunity to temper their bodies with this body-tempering liquid after reaching senior grades or ranking in the top few in exams.

This would greatly improve their physical fitness, and they would not be like the students in his previous life, who had powerful brains but weak bodies.

"The gains this time are really big. If there are no other worries, then it would be a real win."

Chen Cheng put down the ring and looked at the last red space ring.

I just hope that there is nothing weird inside this last one, otherwise he will be really upset to death.

Refine the ring and let your consciousness penetrate into it.

I thought I would see piles of things, but after a quick look around, all I saw were a few lonely boxes.

After a careful inspection, not missing any clues, Chen Cheng's consciousness then looked at several wooden boxes placed in the space.

He could feel that the things in these boxes were the treasures that the lich truly cherished.

Taking out one of the smallest boxes, Chen Cheng looked at the rustic wooden box on the table but did not open it immediately.

Instead, he held the box and looked inside it.

"There's no identifying pattern on the box, and the lock is just a simple iron lock."

Chen Cheng put the box down and muttered.

Then he thought about it and went to the yard outside the house with the box.

The moonlight shone down, illuminating the yard. The footsteps of patrolling soldiers could be heard outside the yard.

He placed the box on the stone table in the yard, and then Chen Cheng took out some mithril powder from his space bag and began to carve a shielding and protective magic array in the yard.

Draw the last magic pattern, place the box in the center of the magic array, and then take out the magic crystal to activate the magic array.

Then Chen Cheng summoned the suit, and then took the dragon horn sword and chopped down the iron lock of the box.

The iron lock was cut off as easily as tofu, and the box did not explode.

Then he reached out and used the dragon horn sword to open the box.

After waiting for a while and not finding anything wrong, Chen Cheng dared to step forward.

Stepping into the magic circle, Chen Cheng looked into the box, and then saw a liquid that looked like gold but not gold, and like water but not water flowing in the box.

The inner wall of the box was covered with dense secret golden runes. These runes were still glowing, tightly binding the thing in the box.

Although he didn't know what was inside, the first time Chen Cheng saw it, he felt a strong sense of hunger in his mind.

It was as if he hadn't eaten for ten years and wanted to eat the whole thing in the box straight away.

Just as he stretched out his hand, Squidward, who had been hiding in the space bag containing the dead fish, moved.

His tentacle stretched out from the space bag and pricked his thigh like a needle.

The pain was so severe that Chen Cheng almost went to see his grandmother, but it was also the pain that woke Chen Cheng up.

Then Chen Cheng immediately closed the lid of the box.

After closing it, the feeling of hunger disappeared instantly, and Chen Cheng, with sweat on his forehead, put the box back into the ring.

He reached out and patted the space bag on his waist and said:

"Thanks, Squidward."

But Squidward still pretended to be dead and did not answer Chen Cheng.
