Chapter 178 Gradually wake up

Gao Wen had to lament the magic and convenience of those healing spells. There is no advanced medical idea in this world, nor does it have a complete understanding of microbial infections, human anatomy, cell biology, etc. For ordinary wound infections, it may cost a person a person's life. But at the same time, those masters of the Holy Light and the Way of Nature can use magic to achieve "treatment" beyond imagination. As long as you can afford the price, a person who only has half his breath can even heal the wound in a few minutes and turn it into danger.

Kant's leader did not have druids, but there were several Holy Light Priests. One of them lived in a small church in the castle for many years. He was the lord's religious consultant and also assumed the responsibility of maintaining the lord's health. With the timely notification of the servants, the Holy Light Priest quickly rushed to Victor Kant's study and used Holy Light technique to save the shaky life of the old viscount.

Gowen stood aside and watched the priest's busyness. The druid potion had replenished Victor Kant's much-needed vitality, and the knight's "blood inspiration" quickly replenished the blood lost by overdrawing this part of its vitality. Now, the healed holy light has been covered on the wound. The priest prayed devoutly while carefully holding the handle of the dagger. Then he shouted the name of the God of Holy Light and quickly pulled out the murder weapon.

The Holy Light immediately motivated and healed the wound quickly, while also conditioning the damaged musculoskeleton inside the wound. During this process, the Holy Light Pastor was always praying to the God of Holy Light to maintain the healing effect on the Viscount.

Gao Wen nodded silently, thinking that he could see the normal style of the Holy Light Pastor. What skills do the priest who uses the Dragon Bones and the Cun Fist Clearing Sword Technique?

The treatment process should last for a short time. The servants were gathering around their masters. Gao Wen looked around and began to check every corner of the study.

No one questioned his actions. Ordinary servants believed that this was the Duke's investigation of the scene of the murder, and the butler Carter, who had been likely to impose obstacles, had become a murderer and fled the place.

Gao Wen's eyes moved in this closed study, his brows frowned slightly.

This is not a place suitable for study. Although it is located on the upper floor of the castle, it has a very bad lighting environment. The narrow and uncomfortable narrow windows of the classical castle are particularly prominent here. There is only one narrow window in the whole room, which makes it unable to bring much light to the room even when the sun is brightest all day long. The magic crystal lamp embedded in the walls has obvious problems: even if all the lights are on, the room is covered with a hazy and dim atmosphere.

No, it may not be that there is a problem with the magic crystal lamp...

Gao Wen's eyes fell on one of the lamps. The light of the lamp was actually very bright, but its light seemed to be bound by some force, so it could not sprinkle the entire room.

The kind and cheerful Viscount Victor usually works in such a weird study?

Gao Wen came to the side of the room. There was a huge bookshelves placed against the wall. A large number of books with exquisite binding and heavy covers were neatly arranged on the bookshelf. Many books even had decorations such as gold and silver on the spines, which were typical characteristics of the aristocratic collection of books.

In Gao Wen's opinion, this is a multifunctional manifestation of multifunctionality that can be used to read when you need knowledge, and when you need self-defense, you can use it to smash people. If the family falls into the house, you can even pry the gold from the book cover as a startup capital to revitalize the family business. In addition to being easily beaten to the face when you lean on the bed at night, these heavy and gorgeous books are simply examples of "knowledge is power and can also be money."

And in fact, most books in this era are so heavy and gorgeous. They are "luxury goods" that only wealthy people can have. Sometimes the number of books in the castle even directly demonstrates the wealth and heritage of a nobleman, even if they themselves may not read it several times in their lifetime.

But Viscount Kant obviously not just collects these books to save face. Most of the covers of books have different degrees of wear and deformation, which is a phenomenon that can only be read frequently. In addition, the covers of some books have even been repaired with glue, leather, and gold and silver foil. This is even more a move that only those who love books will do.

However, Gao Wen's eyes swept through the books and found that all the repair traces seemed to be left behind a long time ago. The gold and silver foil had changed color, and the glued leather was also worn out very much. Moreover, there was no way to see a relatively new book on the entire bookshelf.

It seems that since a certain time, Viscount Kant has no longer been interested in these "ordinary books"?

So what is he reading? The evil magic books left to him by the Eternal Mile Cult?

Gao Wen turned to another small table behind the desk, which was piled with some documents and files that were not available for the time being. Gao Wen's eyes were suddenly attracted by one of the unfolded papers.

There were some accounts recorded on it, as if it had not had time to collect the original information in the account book. The most prominent among the records was the remuneration paid to a certain mercenary team and the deposit for the next action. The specific employment content was written with the words "collect raw materials".

Is this a record of hiring mercenaries to arrest refugees? Evidence?

Gao Wen frowned and was about to approach the paper, but suddenly he heard a small commotion from the servants behind him, and a little extra light shone into the slightly dim study room.

Gao Wen turned around in surprise and saw the Viscountess Lilith Kant standing at the door. This sick lady who was so thin that she seemed to be a shadow was carrying a lantern. Perhaps she had run from the North Tower all the way to the place with the help of the light of the lantern. She widened her eyes and stared blankly at Victor Kant, who was surrounded by everyone, with fear and astonishment on her face.

"What's wrong!?" Lilith exclaimed, his voice intermittently, "Who... can anyone tell me... Victor he is...what's wrong?"

"Madam, please don't panic. Master Viscount is fine," the priest of the Holy Light quickly stood up. "Thanks to the God of the Holy Light, Master Viscount was just a little skin trauma, and was in a coma. Duke Gaowen drank him the potion in time, and with my treatment, he was safe."

While speaking, the Holy Light Priest raised his hand and tried to summon a Holy Light to comfort the frightened lady, but Lilith Kant ignored the priest and staggered to Victor. After checking that the other party was indeed breathing, she breathed a little relieved and looked at Gao Wen: "Thank you... Thank you for saving him."

"I should do it," Gao Wen nodded slightly, then looked at the servants around him, "There are too many people coming in here. Your master needs fresh air. Except for the personal servants, everyone else will withdraw."

Gowen was not the owner of the castle, but no one objected to what he said at this moment. Soon most of the servants left the room. After confirming that the healing spell had taken effect and the Viscount himself no longer needed additional casting, the Holy Light Priest also retreated.

Viscount Kant's wound had healed, and a senior male servant wiped the blood on the Viscount's body, and the latter finally woke up slowly.

His gaze focused for a while before he could see the situation in the room. He first saw Gao Wen, stunned for a moment, and then saw Lilith standing in front of him, and his expression immediately became nervous: "Dear! Why are you here?!"

"I...I heard something happened in the castle..." Lilith Kant seemed a little panicked, "I'll come to see you..."

"I'm fine," Viscount Kant waved his hand with some difficulty, asking the servant to retreat, and then he forced himself to stand up weakly, but the effort failed. Lilith immediately stepped forward and supported him, and he grabbed Lilith's arm with his backhand, "You don't have to worry, but you came here at this time, which made me very worried."

"I...I'm fine," said the Viscountess hurriedly, and nodded quickly to Takamon. "The Duke saved you as soon as possible, and called the priest, my dear, what happened?"

"Thank you for your actions," Victor Kant immediately thanked Gao Wen, frowned and took a breath. The wound was healed, but the pain of the dagger stabbing into his chest seemed to remain between his heart and lungs. "It was Carter, Carter suddenly attacked me, and I was completely confused. He seemed to have become a different person. While stabbing me, he also said some strange words, saying that there were invaders in the castle, and what else should I protect... I am completely confused now!"

Then the viscount seemed to suddenly react: "By the way, where did Carter run away? Did he attack someone else?"

Gao Wen was about to answer when a shadow suddenly condensed into shape in the study, and the amber sound came from the shadow: "He ran away."

The half-elf-like lady appeared, and her body was almost wet with rain. Her long ears shook in the air. She turned to look at Gao Wen: "That old housekeeper is definitely not an ordinary person! I saw him running like flying on the spire of the castle, and his figure disappeared and appeared suddenly. I could not catch up with him with a shadow step. Finally, I chased him to the near the stable behind the castle. He lost trace, and I could not find it at all."

Gao Wen was startled: "A person you can't track down?"

"Yes, he is at least a demigod," Amber said very confidently, "After all, I am the Goddess of the Dark Night..."

Gao Wen pretended not to hear this sentence.

"He ran away, and it might become a threat," Gowan looked at the Viscount and the Viscountess, "I suggest you strengthen the garrison of the castle."

"That's for sure." Viscount Kant nodded vigorously.

Lilith also nodded slightly, but suddenly covered her forehead and her body shook slightly as if she had lost support.

Viscount Kant suddenly looked nervous: "Dear?"

"I...I'm a little dizzy," Lilith covered her forehead, her tone a little painful, "I feel uncomfortable..."

"You have been away from your room for too long!" Viscount Kant said in a serious tone. "You have to go back and rest assured. I will send twice as many guards to guard the North Tower, and as long as I am in a little better condition, I will go and be with you."
