14 Massacre (1/2)
Yun Gu POV
After the fight, Me, Yun Che and Su Ling'er were mentally exhausted about what Lucius told us about the equal exchange that Lucius proposed. If I'm totally serious with you the Knowledge that Lucius show me was superb.
In this new form of medicine, the doctors became specialist and they study, research and advance in the field that they choose. This new fields of medicine are so profound that is really marvelous. They don't use the conventional way of touch the patient, they don't leave a loose end. They peform varios tests, and the results are then interpreted with the knowledge of thousands if not millions of other tests in the past. They completely reaserch the human body to the last part, no mather if they were bonnes, veins, organs, everything. Even I was shocked when I readed that all our bodies are formed by very basic compounds named proteins. The combination of these form a base that is transmited from parents to children. According to this, the secret to the different bloodlines that exist in the different species that they inhabit this world is recorded in something that they call DNA. The very basis of life in a world.
This literally made my studies advance at an astonishing speed. The heavenly Medicine Manual that I was having trouble to understand suddenly become much clear, all my doubts were answered and I realize that the human mind is in no way inferior to a god. Lucius told me that this knowledge is the culmination of millions upon millions of people that their only desire was the advancement of human life; they don't wanted to be tied by the gods or devils and be subjects to their wishes for all eternity, no! They wanted to be the masters of their fate, they wanted to discover all the unknowns that exist in this universe, and they literally killed the gods and devils that were in their path, the path to humans becoming the masters of destiny itself.
The thought of that made my mind to become more active; something that we humans don't understand was simply adjudged to the wishes of the gods. But these humans take god by the balls and decided to understand the unknown. Their most famous phrase is ”If something is unknown is because we didn't have researched yet”. This phrase made my blood boil, how is that we that are also humans became so foolish in comparison with the humans that Lucius spoke. I'm very ashamed for our ineptitude and traditions that only the most powerful have the right to achieve something. The other humans are better in every way than us and that is something that the only felling that I have right now is shame, pure shame.
But with this I think that we will advance, no matter how many years it take me to accomplish this I will do it for the sake of the persons in this world.
Lucius POV
Lucius was resting in a tree admiring the night sky together with him Mordred in her armor was looking at the same thing, the two children were sleeping in a provisional camp that they did to rest after they left the place in that the corps of the sect members of the Soaring Celestial Sword Sect lies.
Mordred was looking to these foreign stars for the first time so she was enthralled admiring the night sky. After admiring the stars she put her helmet aside and was looking to Lucius that was observing the night. She decided to ask him what will be their plans.
”Lucius what will be doing now that we encountered people?” (Mordred)
The voice of Mordred brings him back to reality. He cast his eyes in the face of Mordred. The pale light that was emitting the fire in the camp, make the Mordred look gorgeous; her face has two emeralds for eyes that were reflecting the light, her lips were a pink red color that was inviting him to give her a very long kiss, her small nose was the cherry on top of a cake. The fact that she doesn't put any kind of makeup makes her more perfect. Her beauty is all natural.
Mordred saw how Lucius was looking at her and she involuntary blushed but she never low her eyes in avoidance he kept staring at him with pride, the pride that a lion have for being the King.
The two were staring at each other for a long time. Neither willing to deflect their eyes from the other, after a lot of time latter Lucius spoke without looking away from the eyes of Mordred.
”We will rest first, later I will ask Yun Gu about our deal, if he accepts we take them to the Illusory Demon Realm in there we will continue our journey, exploring and finding new treasures and collecting information about the places that could contain ores, herbs, jades etc. remember that Grial told us to collect a lot of materials, and thanks to the energy expended in the Noble Phantasm Throne of Heroes, he right know is in a slumber. He told us that his energy will be recovered after 1 year and that the comet was put inside the Gate of Babylon, after all the comet is formed from a lot of precious metals and ores.” (Lucius)
”So you are saying that right now we don't have anything to do?”(Mordred)
”Exactly, but that will only last a few hours more. When we start again our journey we will have a lot of things to do and the most we will battle a lot of beings. I'm sure that you want to fight legendary beings like a dragon or a phoenix so you will not be bored” Lucius say that to a visible excited Mordred to fight to her hearts content.
When the two of us was looking at each other we heard the rattle in the tent that Yun Gu was resting, He parted the curtain open and was making his way to Lucius. His eyes are red from reading a lot and his breathing more rapidly. With a kind of excitement in his faces he looked at the two that were looking at each other but the most shocking was looking to the face of his companion. Yun Gu thought that his companion was a man but no, his companion was a woman and a very beautiful one at that.
”What is the matter Yun Gu?” I asked Yun Gu what is his business at this late of the day, Mordred and I were in our staring contest and neither of us was willing to admit defeat.
Yun Gu heard Lucius speak but he observed that he wasn't moving away his gaze from his companion and thought 'She is his girlfriend?' throwing those thoughts aside he started to tell him his decision.
”I accept your deal. I will exchange the Sky Poison Pearl for all the knowledge that you have about medicine and others fields” When I heard that I looked to him right away and Mordred cheered in victory.
”Yeah I win!” Mordred screamed and make a guts pose; realizing what she did, she blushed once more and to occult her embarrassing she put her helmet back.
”Sorry about that but we were having a little of fun, jajajajaja, so you accepted. I thought that you will need more time to make the decision but all is good” (Lucius)
”Yeah I was having a lot of thoughts about what you show me in those scrolls. I never knew that existed a place that the humans in there became so powerful by researching the unknown. They discovered everything by themselves, and that is a great accomplish. With the few scrolls about medicine I started to advance in my own studies again. The bottleneck that I was in these few years was shattered and right now, can say with condifence that this is really an equal exchange. So thank you for giving me the opportunity to be better in medicine.” (Yun Gu)
”Don't worry, as I said this knowledge needs to be shared, so you better start to make a plan because you will be a lot of work to do.” I responded to Yun Gu and we started to share more things about this continent, who were the powerhouses, how big is the continent, exchange our thoughts in the field of alchemy etc., etc. etc.
The next morning the children started to awake and do the cores like fold the tent, gather water, etc. at noon we started our journey again and were traveling at fast speed when Yun Gu asked me something.
”Lucius how old are you and what realm is your strength” (Yun Gu)
”My age is 14 years old the same as my companion, and our strength is 1st level of Sovereign Realm and my companion 10th level of Sovereign Realm.”
Yun Gu was visible shocked hearing that a person of only 14 years is in the 1st level of Sovereign Realm and that his companion… 'Ugh, comparing the talents of people is really frustrating.'
We started to reach an open space large enough to summon Charles Patricius. When we were near enough I stoped and indicates to the rest to step back, Mordred seeing what I was doing couldn't help to ask.
”What will you summon?” (Mordred)
”Charles Patricius” I responded as a matter of fact. Mordred noded and tells the others to move to the back and she positioned in a place that she can respond to any eventuality.
[A/N: I was listening the song Before Dawn from Fate Apocrypha extended version in the summoning of Charles Patricius.]
I started to circulate my energy from all my body and channeling it to my core. In there a floating fortress, a Mini-world, a Phantasmal Divine Beast and a Black Spear were orbiting my core, continuing to channel my energy in the core I decided to link the floating island in my inner world to the reality itself.
Yun Gu, Yun Che and Su Ling were watching me closely, like some kind of awesome thing will happen. His expectations were absolutely right.
I finished linking Charles Patricius and saying its true name to summon it after that I open my arms wide and clasped them saying:
”Our Transient Glory: APPEAR! CHARLES PATRICIUS!”
When i finished, the world obeyed my words. Charles Patricius that was in my inner world was materializing in front of us.
An frotress of about 1 km2 was in front of us, above the island 4 buildings begin to assemble istselfs, brick by brick the four buildings, gardens, fountains, a small pound and a black fence was appearing before our eyes. The island started to hover in the air thanks to the 8 fusion reactors fueled by solar crystals, rutilated quartz crystals that burn mercury as fuel.In the center of the garden Vimana was making her appearance in all her splendor.
I extend my profound energy to carry us all to the front gates of Charles Patricius, when we entered what greeted us was a building in Victorian architecture with blue gray bricks and black roof. Stained glass was covering in every window in the buildings. The buildings are the Mansion, a Chapel, the armory and a shed. There is a granary in the rear of the fortress,the gardens are decorated with exotic flora, in the pond fishes of diferent colors were swimming merrily. Don't let fool you the majestic view of the fortress because this is surrounded with laser guns, rail guns, magical canons and a barrier strong enough to stop the attack of 10 Divine Tribulation Practitioners. The wepons can wipeout practitiones in the Divine Tribulation Realm.
Yun Gu, Yun Che and Su Ling have their mouths so open that you can put my sword in them, their eyes are so big that you don't believe that have chinese racial factions. It was very comical.
”So… what you think? A beautiful place to stay am I correct?” (Lucius)
Mordred was unfazed, comparing Charles Patricius with The city of the Throne of Heroes is absolutely impossible. The Throne of Heroes is like one million times more bigger and grandeur that this place but the others only recovered after I call them.
