Chapter 1051 Drow Poison
Joan does not lack strong and deadly toxins, but lacks this kind of "control"-based toxins.
Sometimes he doesn't want to poison someone to death immediately, but wants to catch him alive, hoping that "Grumpy Brother" will fall into a state of incapacity, lie down obediently and make no trouble, and let him manipulate him.
In such occasions, "drow poison" is more suitable than those poisonous poisons that seal the throat when they see blood.
Especially after the attenuation treatment, it is equivalent to a powerful sleeping agent when used together with other slow-release solvents, and generally does not cause fatal consequences.
If he had obtained this bottle of "drow toxin" earlier, he wouldn't have wasted a third-level spell slot to hypnotize the spider Arnold just now - just give him a small dose of "drow toxin" to make him He sleeps all day.
Of course, the "drow poison" and the sleeping pills derived from it can be used as the material for the "poison attack" spell.
In this case, "Poison Strike" appears to have the same function as "Deep Sleep", but in fact, the internal sleeping principles are completely different, and the applicable occasions are also different.
"Deep sleep" is a magic control spell, suitable for dealing with creatures with strong physique but simple mind and weak will, such as "ogre" and the like.
"Poison Strike" is a necromancy spell, combined with "Drow Poison", the applicable crowd is exactly the opposite of "Deep Sleep".
For example, a devout ascetic monk has a very strong mental will, and it is difficult to break through the will defense line if he casts "deep sleep" on him.
But if you switch to "Poison Strike" + "Drow Poison", your body is not strong enough, your resistance to toxins is poor, and no matter how strong your will is, it will be useless, and it is not negotiable to be directly overwhelmed by poison.
Apart from poison, spell-casting materials, family crest, a bag of odd gems and gold and silver coins, the drow warlock had nothing else of value on him, but Joan was not disappointed—after all, he still had a body!
Joan has been coveting the "Warlock's Blood" which contains the bloodlines of the dark elves. Of course, he will not be polite. He showed the largest needle and started working!
"I'm sorry, although you are dead, I still have to trouble you to dedicate your life to the cause of scientific research again."
"Dark elves" belong to a subspecies of elves, biologically classified as "supernatural humanoids", and are relatively closely related to humans.
If Joan uses the drow warlock's blood to prepare the "awakening potion" and injects himself, it is a "quasi-homologous enhancement", which is relatively safe.
The strength of this warlock is mediocre, only level 6, which is the same as Joan's mage level.
Joan didn't expect to decipher any unknown spells from his blood, what he valued was only his drow blood, and the genealogy of the ancestors behind him.
Using this man's blood, Joan can forcibly obtain drow blood and build a bridge through which he may gain the blood power of mixed drow creatures in the future - such as "spider elves".
Joan drew a large tube full of blood from the fresh corpse of the drow warlock, and stored it together with the blood sample of Arnold the spider into a special "blue ice blood storage box".
After draining the last drop of use value from the drow warlock, Joan stood up with satisfaction and returned to his companions.
At this point the fighting in the mountains was over.
The drows left behind a dozen corpses and retreated in a panic.
On Joan's side, except for the giant worm summoned by Joan himself, most of them fulfilled the mission of "cannon fodder" and died tragically under the sword of the dark elf.
Angel unfolded a scroll, cast a spell to build a "shelter hut" on the spot, and invited everyone to enter the house to rest.
After a fierce melee, everyone was exhausted and needed a safe base to rest their breath.
There are a total of three members in the team who are good at healing wounds and stopping bleeding. Needless to say, the priest Lowry and the paladin Audrey, although Holden is an arcane spellcaster, he can also cast low-level healing spells.
Bard is such a "one-size-fits-all" profession. He knows a little about all skills and can move wherever he needs it.
Audrey observed the team's injuries, and called her younger brother to help her treat the wounded. At the same time, she also suggested that Lowry should ignore other things and concentrate on helping Arnold lift the "curse of spider formation".
The others suffered only flesh wounds, and with her and Holden's abilities, it was not difficult to heal them, but the curse suffered by Arnold, neither of them could do anything about it, so they could only hire Lowry, the professional with the strongest medical ability in the team. The pastor tried it.
Lowry quickly checked Arnold's physical condition, and then announced the bad news to everyone.
"I'm sorry to disappoint everyone. The normal magic to remove the curse cannot make Arnold return to his original state. I'm afraid you have to use 'Barrier Breaking' or 'Ruby Reversal Ray' to completely remove the 'Spider Curse'."
"Remove Curse" is just a third-level magical spell, usually used to clear the effect of low-level curses. As for "Spidering Curse", judging from the magic power level, it is likely to be a spell as high as level 6, which is far beyond the third level. "Remove Curse" healing ability.
The "Barrier Breaking" and "Ruby Reversal Ray" mentioned by Lowry are more effective in removing curses. However, the former is a 5-level spell, and the latter is a 6-level spell. level spells.
Everyone looked at each other, and the hut fell into silence.
In the end, Mr. Pastor was the first to break the silence.
"I've sedated Arnold, and a few extra hours of sleep won't do him any harm."
"The drows may launch new attacks at any time. It is very unsafe here. I plan to take Arnold directly to Midgard University and ask my mentor to help him eliminate the 'curse of spider'."
"Angel, Ryan, do you want to go back with me?"
Angel and Ryan looked at each other first, and then looked at Joan at the same time.
Joan saw their thoughts and nodded slightly.
Angel understood, and said to Lowry, "We'll go back with you."
"Okay, pack up, we'll leave right away."
Lowry thought for a while, then turned to look at Joan.
"Joan, what are your plans next?"
"Hyrule, Audrey, Holden, and I will go to the 'Blood Tundra' to visit an old friend. After you leave, we will also teleport there directly. We don't plan to stay here for a long time."
Joan briefly introduced the scheduled itinerary of his team.
In such a dangerous place, no one had any intention of staying for a long time. After a brief goodbye, the two teams gathered into a pile and prepared to transfer collectively.
"Wait first!"
As soon as Lowry unfolded the "Teleportation Scroll", his face suddenly changed, and he raised his hand to signal Joan not to cast spells yet.
"Something is wrong! The 'Teleportation' cannot be activated normally... This area is blocked by spells!"
