The four empires of the Myers Continent all had a metaphor. Regarding the Cloud Flow people's metaphor, everyone agreed that they were like their porcelain.
Porcelain was hard, sometimes even harder than metal, but it was too fragile. If a child threw it on the ground, the porcelain that wouldn't be worn out for thousands of years would shatter into pieces.
This was the Cloud Flow people. Don't be fooled by their appearance. As long as you had the strength of a child, you could defeat them.
God knew how long it would take to withdraw the remaining 600,000 troops. However, the Cloud Flow people had clearly lost any intention of staying. Rex even sent spies to the new city on the shore to gather information.
Most of the Cloud Flow troops were newly recruited, and the organization was completely chaotic.
The cautious Rex only heard on the third day that the Magic Shooter had left. At this time, there were still more than 300,000 soldiers left by the Cloud Flow people. The big ships had all left, and what was left were high-speed warships that couldn't hold many people. These warships were narrow in shape, extremely fast, and equipped with a lot of heavy weapons. They really couldn't hold too many soldiers.
Therefore, the Cloud Flow people simply cut down trees and made raft-like boats.
Rex was afraid that it was a trap set by the Cloud Flow people, or that the level-9 Magic Shooter hadn't left at all, but was hiding in the dark. Therefore, he simply didn't attack.
The Wing Skeleton had the same idea, but he kept sending low-level undead to harass them, knowing that such a good opportunity didn't come often. At the same time, the mechanical undead also went to harass them.
The mechanical undead was almost self-repairing, so it didn't use the cloning spell anymore. After following the Wing Skeleton, its food and drink were severely restricted. If the Wing Skeleton didn't allow it, it absolutely couldn't devour undead, not even the remains of the undead. However, every time it attacked, as long as it could turn the enemy into undead, the Wing Skeleton would allow it to devour half.
Salin trained in the Magic Tower for another three days before leaving.
On the seventh floor of the Magic Tower, Eleanor's body was still placed in the Mage's crystal coffin. The seventh floor had already become a forbidden area. Except for Stephanie, no one else was allowed to enter.
Stephanie didn't sleep for three days and three nights in a row. She didn't even consider that Salin had occupied the top floor of her Magic Tower. The top floor of the Magic Tower was the Mage's living room, which was very important. But for Stephanie, the most important thing at this stage was to find out the difference between elves and humans.
A Magician's Crystal Coffin didn't need to be looked after much. All they had to do was change their Magic Cores and Magic Potions regularly.
Stephanie spent most of her time analyzing Eleanor. On the opposite side of the crystal coffin was the 3D alchemy platform that she had reconstructed. Hundreds of crystal bottles were filled with the biological specimens that she had taken from Eleanor's body.
There were too many wounds on Eileen's body, so a small puppet was needed to enter the crystal coffin and perform the surgery. And all of this was carried out in the Restoration Water. The Crystal Coffin was filled with liquid. The Restoration Water was mixed with a Level 7 Demonic Liquid to ensure Eleanor's vitality.
The smallest puppet was only half the size of a palm. Their hands and feet were sharp scalpels that could cut away rotten flesh or repair areas that needed to be repaired. They also needed to cut out lines to facilitate the regeneration of muscles.
There was a group of mages called magic pharmacists, who took pleasure in treating human diseases.
Stephanie wasn't a magic pharmacist, but her set of small puppets was a piece of equipment above the Saint level. These things were originally prepared for Emperor Chanak. Back then, Stephanie had fantasized that one day, the strongest man in Qin Yin, would lie in the crystal coffin and receive her treatment.
But that man was dead. No matter how strong he was, he wouldn't be able to withstand the attacks of so many experts. Lying in the crystal coffin now was an elf.
Researching in the name of healing was a very normal thing for mages. Salin could only turn a blind eye to it. It would take at least three to five months to cure Eleanor's wounds. Mages weren't omnipotent. Even mages couldn't do anything about such injuries.
The one who recovered the fastest was Sue. The attack of the angel from the divine kingdom only grazed him. With the protection of his armor, the damage he suffered was something a silver sword saint could take.
The one who was more seriously injured was Trish. His horns were broken, and his strength had regressed from a Grand Demon to a demon. He wasn't even as good as when he first met Salin.
Trish lay there in frustration. Stephanie didn't allow him to leave, because demons were also good research materials.
If he was a summoned creature belonging to Salin, the result would definitely not be like this. Trish wasn't allowed to transform into a human. His eight-meter-tall body curled up there looked extremely miserable.
When Salin came to the sixth floor of the Magic Tower, Sue had already left. He couldn't bear to see Trish like this. The drop in strength was a huge blow to a Grand Demon.
"Trish, what's your real name?" Salin walked to Trish's side and sat down.
Trish's dejected expression suddenly became lively. Salin's question gave him some hope.
Only Neris knew his real name. A demon's real name wouldn't be told to anyone. Neris knew because Neris was his master.
Trish was dejected again. He was Neris' slave. Salin wouldn't let him follow him.
"I'm very grateful that you helped Eleanor. Tell me your name, Trish. Although I can't make Neris release you from the contract, I can give you partial freedom. In the future, you can also call me Lord. "
"But … I'm no longer a Grand Demon."
"Many people in the temple, when they first followed me, were still white-robed Mages, or even ordinary swordsmen. Trish, it's much easier to recover power on the Myers Continent than in the Demonic Plane. If you want to become a Grand Demon again, I'll give you a chance. "
Trish turned over and crawled on the ground, his huge head reaching Salin's waist.
"My name is …" Trish's eyes turned and searched the magic circle. He was afraid that his name would be heard by other Mages, and that would be terrible. A demon's mental strength was strong, but their souls were not as good as humans'. If someone knew his name, they could even curse him, and the effect was obvious. A powerful existence could even make him surrender just by saying his name.
Salin understood. There was indeed a magic circle for eavesdropping in this six-story Magic Tower. Salin couldn't use magic to block it, so he simply put his ear next to Trish's mouth and listened to Trish condense his voice into a thin line and send it into his ear.
Salin maintained this position for half a minute before Trish finished repeating his name.
"Okay, Trish." Salin took out a scroll and put it in front of Trish. This wasn't a follower's contract, but a simple obedience contract. This contract wasn't very binding. Trish could disobey Salin's orders when he was out of Salin's sight without suffering the backlash of the contract.
"Master, can I call you that now?"
"Yes, Trish, I will ask Master Stephanie to cure you as soon as possible." Salin said, and hurriedly went down the Magic Tower to find Rex.
The palace was destroyed, and Rex didn't continue to live in the Magic Tower because she had to deal with government affairs, reporting officials, and nobles. If she entered the ruins every time, it would greatly affect her mood.
Rex's temporary residence was a building complex near the Magic Tower in the north of the city. This was originally a small fortress outside the ancient city of Great Liang, and Rex had transformed it into a temporary palace.
The dragon slayer army was stationed around the palace, and the two hundred bodyguards that Salin brought with him lived in the palace. These two hundred people were extremely lucky, none of them were injured or killed in battle.
Salin didn't bring many people, and there were only a dozen or so Mages behind him. There were also the guards of these Mages. Salin came to Rex's temporary residence, and he walked straight in. The guards were all familiar people, and those who protected Rex's residence were the Swordsmen with the Elven Alchemy Crossbows.
"Trish, I'm out."
"Oh, Salin …" Rex saw Salin, and the fatigue on his face disappeared.
"I'm done!" Salin pointed at his Demonic God Suit, and told Rex that he had successfully unsealed it. The difficulty of the seal set by Joey was very high, but as long as Salin reached the intermediate level of a level-seven Mage, he could slowly unseal it. If he was a standard level-eight Mage, he could unseal the first layer of the seal of the Demonic God Suit in a few hours.
"Unfortunately, the intelligence said that the damned guy left. You still don't know, right?"
"I heard." Salin smiled bitterly. Originally, he was in a hurry to unseal the suit in order to fight against that level-nine Magic Shooter. Only a level-eight Endless Night could trap him for a moment, and then shoot him to death with the badge.
"So, the war is temporarily over?"
"The war with the Cloud Flow people is temporarily over, but the war with the Vatican has just begun. Salin, the Vatican is trying to assassinate you and me. I've already given the order to launch a bloody attack.
Salin wasn't a real noble. Hearing this term, he was stunned at first, and then he realized what a bloody attack meant.
"Trish, since you've already decided, I will support you." Although Salin didn't really like this decision, he still answered firmly.
"There's no need this time. We're no match for the Vatican in a direct confrontation. The people I sent are all assassins. Since they came to assassinate me, they will get the same revenge. "
"Then …"
"Salin, go back to Metatlin City first."
"What?" Salin looked at Rex, not knowing what she meant.
"Leave Eleanor to me, or Master Stephanie will continue to exploit you. Nicholas and Winged Skeleton will go back with you. It's April now. If we don't go to the Frozen Sea soon, we'll have to starve this year, "Rex said to Salin with a smile. Actually, she knew that the most important thing for Salin to do when he returned was to see Sicar.
