Even the locals cannot figure out the internal structure of the underground waterway of the island republic. They only know that it was built by their outstanding ancestors when the island republic was still part of the Seven Hills Empire. This great water supply system allows them to get fresh water everywhere even on a small island divided by more than a hundred saltwater rivers. All the waste sewage produced in daily life has disappeared due to the operation of the drainage system.
Their knowledge of the drainage and water supply system was limited to two important gates. Their ancestors told them that when the city was besieged, they must keep these two gates tightly closed to prevent enemies from intruding through the underground waterways. That was all.
If Avicenna hadn't made the gravel and land beneath his feet disappear in order to avoid the siege of Amy and Rurik, he would never have discovered this underground channel.
The place Avicenna entered was a sewer. In this dark, semi-enclosed space, once wastewater is drained down, the sound of gurgling water can be clearly heard throughout the space; an indescribable stench comes one after another in the air, making people sick; and accumulations accumulate under the water. Covered with thick mud, mostly from feces and dead animals and plants, if the skin is accidentally touched, it will soon become itchy and red.
Avicenna held the lamp, walked carefully inside, raised his head slightly, and said to himself to the nothing above:
"Master Apostle of the Xiaoyao School, I have sought the help of teachers and students of the Alchemy School. According to the literature, it takes sixty-six days to make a body. However, the island republic has been besieged. With my own strength, it is impossible to protect this city. For two months. I beg you, the apostle, to come here again and protect this city until the body is completed!"
As Avicenna's voice fell, the mud produced some reactions. Time and time again they were shaped into all kinds of strange human shapes, and time and time again they collapsed on themselves. After many failures, a clay figurine that still looked like a human finally appeared in front of Avicenna, and his muddy eyes suddenly opened.
Avicenna was confused: "Lord Yin Ben Xina? Why did you... this time?"
"Wrong, it's not Yin Ben Sina, it's Ahmed Gulani."
The clay figurine shook its head from side to side, and its stiff movements made people worry that its head would suddenly fall off the body of the clay sculpture. But he stretched out his hand to one side. The palm of his hand, which was originally only a ball, split and deformed with difficulty. After repeated wrong attempts, it finally managed to form five fingers similar to a human hand.
Suddenly, a burst of magic power overflowed from the specious palm, causing a large piece of soil in front of him to disappear.
"Yes, it has barely reached elf-level strength." The clay figurine made a voice, "Although it has been weakened by more than half, it is still much better than Lord Yin Ben Xina anyway."
"That's natural. Our souls don't need too sophisticated containers." Avicenna said, "But when did you learn the art of seance? Why didn't Master Yin Ben Xina come in person?"
"Last time, Lord Yin Ben Xina was slightly injured. This is Lord Gregory's sphere of influence. It was inconvenient for Lord Yin Ben Xina to come in person, so he asked me to come." Ahmet De Gulani said, "In addition, there is also some trouble on the Eastern battlefield. Lord Yin Ben Xina is unable to leave there for the time being."
"But Ahmed Gulani, you probably don't know how to do necromancy, and you are so far away..."
"It was Master Yin Ben Xina who sent me here. Just now, in order to better control my spirit body, he took action to destroy my body."
"Destroyed your body?" Avicenna was shocked. He knew that this was what Ahmed Gulani said euphemistically. To put it bluntly, he was just killed by Yin Ben Sina.
"If we can reshape the body of the King of Kings, then my body can also be reshaped. If we fail, then we don't have to go back alive - this is what Master Yin Ben Xina means."
Avicenna couldn't help but take out a handkerchief and wiped the sweat on his head: "But it's difficult for us alone to defend the island republic for two months. How about we take Paracelsus and leave the island republic directly? If so, there is still a chance..."
"No, Master Yin Ben Xina said, let's do it here. Don't just focus on Paracelsus, he may not be trustworthy. Let all other alchemists join in. If two months is not enough, then three months , three months is not enough, half a year is enough, no matter what those alchemists say, even if it is forced, they must be forced to conduct experiments! Magic varies from person to person, if we don't do this, it will be difficult for us to succeed."
"Half a year?" Avicenna shook his head repeatedly, "If Master Yin Ben Xina doesn't come, it will be difficult for just the two of us to do it for a month!"
"And us."
When Avicenna wasn't paying attention, four more human shapes were shaped out of the mud. They are all the same as the previous clay figurine. They first open their eyes, and then depict the details of each body organ one by one, becoming more and more like a human being.
Avicenna was surprised and delighted. These five, plus himself, made a total of six priests. Except for Yin Ben Xina himself who did not come, all the Xingyue Sect's combat power has gathered here.
"Why are you still standing there? Let's go quickly." The clay figure who called himself Ahmed Gulani urged, "Take us to meet the legendary Paracelsus."
Under the guidance of Avicenna, the group of people groped their way through the dark underground waterways. Since they are made of mud, they carefully avoid water flow all the way, for fear that some part of their limbs will be dissolved by the water. After walking like this for a while, a girl's singing voice came faintly from the dark distance. After advancing for a while, the singing stopped suddenly and turned into voices:
"Little Algernon, are you stealing my bread again? Don't think it's so dark that I can't see it. Your squeaking sound has reached my ears."
"Hey, eat, eat, it's the last half of a slice. That bad guy Avicenna hasn't appeared for more than a month. If he doesn't send food, I will starve to death. You must remember my kindness after eating. , you are not allowed to chew my body after I starve to death, you can go find food somewhere else, remember?"
After a period of silence, the girl's sigh came from the darkness: "It's a pity that in the end, I couldn't grasp the mystery of creation."
Avicenna raised the oil lamp and illuminated the front: a girl slumped on the ground, her left hand was handcuffed to a steel pipe that should not be in the sewer with an iron ring without any gaps. Her hair and face were stained, and the white sheet wrapped around her body had been dyed black.
There was no mouse beside her.
