“Drag them out.”

Jiang Li was staring at the flowers on the surface of the long robes in shock.

The Armored Troll was a creature with extremely tenacious vitality.

For humans, fatal injuries could usually be healed in a short period of time on these monsters.

As long as the core of the armor was not shattered, it was very difficult to kill them. More than half of the important organs had to be destroyed.

But now, a seemingly harmless flower had easily taken their lives.

Moreover, the description of the flowers was very similar to the antidote mentioned by Namur.

This flower definitely had a special effect.

Just as he was thinking, a rumbling sound came from the luxurious room.

Jiang Li looked left and right. There was no one else nearby. Could that fellow be calling him?

He was a little hesitant. The disguise on his body was actually only a layer of skin.

It might be fine if he was a distance away. If he was too close, Jiang Li was not sure if he could fool the other party’s eyes.

“Drag them away!”

Viscount Gallonron was currently in a fit of anger. When he saw Jiang Li at the door and did not dare enter, he wanted to send another sacrificial flower to kill him.

However, if he killed this guy, there would be another dirty corpse in his room.

In the end, he still did not attack. He only flicked his sleeve, and a wave of air carried the five corpses as it smashed towards Jiang Li.

Jiang Li suppressed his instinct to resist and allowed himself to be blasted flying by the wave of air. He collided with the wall and stopped when he and the five corpses were blown to the end of the corridor.

The door of Viscount Gallonron’s room closed again with a bang.

Jiang Li flipped over and sat up. The skin of the Armored Troll on the surface wriggled. He retracted the black scale armor that was sandwiched in the middle.

Fortunately, the other party did not really attack. Otherwise, even if the black scale armor blocked the attack, it would definitely be discovered by the other party.

After putting the five corpses with flowers into the coffin, he got up and quickly left.

The food that had been tampered with was naturally Jiang Li’s doing.

The two jars delivered here happened to contain his seed puppets.

Through the jar, he catalyzed the seed inside in advance, making it extremely invasive.

He originally wanted to trick this viscount.

In the end, he still discovered it. This method indeed could not work on powerful creatures.

Fortunately, he was not the unlucky one. He happened to obtain this flower that would bloom after absorbing the blood.

Jiang Li found an empty corner in the fortress and took out one of them.

[Name: Sacrificial Flower]

[Type: Plant]

[Age: Blossomed]

[Reproduction Method: Self Reproduction]

[Root Structure: Siphon]

[Source of Nutrition: Special Blood, Moonlight]

[Description: A magical flower that is thought to be able to communicate with the gods.]

Was this thing called a sacrificial flower?

Jiang Li casually took out a Demon Core realm snake demon from the coffin.

Then, he took the sacrificial flower and stabbed it into the heart of the snake’s waist.

The stem of this flower was extremely hard and sharp. Even though the snake demon’s skin was tough, it was still easily pierced through.

However, a similar scene did not appear.

Although the snake had its heart pierced and was wriggling in pain, the blood in its body was not sucked away by this sacrificial flower.

It did not look like it was anything serious. It was no different from being pricked by an ordinary steel needle.

The flower was bright red and not full. It should be able to continue drawing blood.

However, this sacrificial flower did not seem to be effective against ordinary snake demons.

Jiang Li had never seen an Armored Troll use such flowers to deal with human cultivators.

Could it be that the effect of this flower was only targeted at the Armored Trolls?

There were countless examples of mutual augmentation and suppression in the cultivation world, so it was not strange for such a situation to occur.

However, Jiang Li was a little surprised. These Armored Trolls actually carried special plants that targeted their race.

Was it to use it as a method to punish his subordinates and consolidate his rule?

In the appraisal skill, it was also written that this flower was believed to be able to communicate with gods. There should be some elements of faith mixed in it.

If they could grow them in bulk as weapons, it might be able to change the situation of the human camp greatly.

He poured the Nine Nether spiritual qi into the flower in an attempt to accelerate its reproduction.

However, the Nine Nether spiritual qi that had always been successful lost its effect on this flower.

The sacrificial flower had indeed changed.

A new flower grew from the straight stem.

However, when the blood color on the flower petal completely receded, no matter how Jiang Li urged his spiritual qi, it could no longer grow. Moreover, it directly withered to its original state.

The blood of an Armored Troll was only enough to breed another sacrificial flower. It was quite difficult to cultivate such a delicate plant.

At the very least, they would not be able to grow them on a large scale in the short term.

“Big Brother, what are you doing here with the sacrificial flower?”

The sudden voice made Jiang Li’s hair stand on end.

He hurriedly looked in the direction of the voice. It turned out that a hidden door had opened on the stone wall at some point. A head had emerged from the secret door and was looking at him curiously.

It was a short Troll about 1.5 meters tall.

From her clothes, hairstyle, and voice, she should be a female Troll.

However, the other party’s armor was clearly painted with a bright color.

This short Troll was actually a noble.

“Is that food in your hand? Can you give it to me?”

The short Troll looked at the jar in Jiang Li’s hand.

The other party could enter and leave the fortress freely. Her face was painted with the pattern of a Troll noble. Moreover, this jar contained a puppet. Jiang Li thought for a moment and did not refuse.

“Of course, please enjoy.”

Jiang Li made a respectful gesture and leaned in to observe the other party.

He suspected that this short Troll, who was only 1.5 meters tall, might be a hidden expert.

“Then can you help me move it over more? My room is right ahead.”

She was very polite. She was simply different from the other Armored Trolls.

“At your service, my lady.”

The female Troll pushed open the secret door on the stone wall and let Jiang Li in.

Then, she walked in front while Jiang Li followed behind.

This secret passage seemed to be specially designed for her. In the group of Armored Trolls more than two meters tall, the secret passage was only 1.7 to 1.8 meters tall.

Jiang Li, who had entered, could only move forward with his back hunched.

Soon, they arrived at another room that was not luxurious but was very clean.

However, to Jiang Li’s surprise, this room was filled with beds, and there were 19 human children lying on them?

“Please put him on this bed.”

The short female Troll asked Jiang Li to open the remaining jar in his hand. Then, she placed the seeded puppet on the last bed for a total of twenty.

Jiang Li looked at the room again. Sure enough, there were still 19 jars placed there.

This little girl-like Troll did not eat them. The scene in this room was different from the Trolls he knew.

“Lady, what are you doing?” Jiang Li pretended to be respectful and expressed his doubts appropriately.

“My name is Gallonfran. Big Brother, just call me Fran.”

“As nobles, even if we don’t eat, we can still maintain our sanity.”

Gallonfran knew very well what Jiang Li was puzzled about.

Her casual words allowed Jiang Li to obtain a lot of information.

Noble Trolls could maintain their rationality by not eating. In other words, non-noble Trolls would lose their rationality if they did not eat enough Nourishment.

This matched the situation he had seen previously. It was probably an important reason why the Armored Troll had persisted in attacking the Azure Cloud Continent for a thousand years.

However, if that was the case, Gallonron was consuming children simply because he wanted to.

“Miss Fran, don’t you want to eat them? Why do you want them to lie here?”

This Troll was unexpectedly easy-going. Jiang Li tried to get more information from her.

“I don’t plan to eat them. I’m a vegetarian by belief.”

Jiang Li was stunned. Could it be that this short and harmless-looking Armored Troll was the rare kind of ‘human-loving demon’ that only appeared when the population was large enough?

She did not eat these children. In order to protect them, she even kept them in her room?

No, wait.

If that was the case, why did all these children look unconscious?

Moreover, the feeling they gave Jiang Li was a little strange. He even smelled some unusual scents.

After glancing around, he saw that there were a few large cabinets in this clean room. However, what was placed on them were not clothes or belongings, but a large number of bottles and jars containing strange liquid.

Gallonfran did not explain and walked over. Jiang Li had just taken out the jar and placed it beside the puppet on the bed.

Swoosh!

Jiang Li’s eyes narrowed.

She actually cut open the puppet’s chest and took out the heart with extreme proficiency.

Then, she took out the heart of an Armored Troll from a vessel soaked in solution and quickly stitched it up on the puppet.

The cold heart did not react but she did not panic. She picked up a glass needle and injected some liquid into the heart. The heart actually beat again.

The corners of Jiang Li’s eyes twitched involuntarily. She actually… had a needle!?

She tore off a strand of her long hair, then the silver needles in her hand danced as she sewed up the chest of the puppet.

Ignoring everything else, the suturing technique could at least throw the medical cultivators of the Great Mountain Alliance far behind.

Jiang Li cursed himself for being naive. How could there be good people in a group of Armored Trolls?

This young lady looked harmless and spoke very politely. She did not eat human brains, but she would leave her food behind for human experiments!

Human experiments were actually not rare in the cultivation world.

Many rogue cultivators could open their own black market and change the limbs of demon beasts for others.

However, their standards were clearly far inferior to this person.

“Come on, hang in there.”

She was actually still by the bed encouraging the spiritual root puppet that had changed its heart.

Jiang Li looked at the strange scene and thought of something.

He walked to the side and opened the blanket on the other bed.

However, the scene he saw, no matter how tenacious Jiang Li’s mental consciousness was, was still strongly affected and shocked.

If this was another world, his ‘Sanity’ value would drop drastically.

The head of a child exposed beyond the blanket was still alright, but under the blanket, there was only a palm.

There was nothing else. The palm of an Armored Troll was connected to the neck.

Fortunately, the pair of eyes that he used were not his. In any case, he could not keep these eyes later.

He lifted the next blanket. The feet of this experimental body had been replaced by the claws of the Armored Troll.

The wound had completely healed. The Armored Troll’s tissues were constantly corroding the child’s body. Now, he looked like a half-human half-demon.

After removing the other blankets, without exception, a few of the organs in these children were replaced.

What was this Armored Troll doing? Was she playing a puzzle game?

“Miss Fran, can you tell me what you’re doing?”

Fran thoughtfully covered the boy in Bed 20 with a blanket. She looked up and looked at Jiang Li curiously.

She did not directly answer Jiang Li’s question, but spoke with a calm tone.

“Big Brother, you should be a human, right?”

As soon as she finished speaking, in an instant, Jiang Li had already arrived in front of her.

His palm grabbed the front of Fran’s armor. As long as there was any abnormality, he would immediately crush the core of the armor and destroy it, causing this strange person to die.

“You’re indeed a human. Your skin doesn’t look too fresh anymore.”

“But don’t worry, no one else will come to my room. I won’t tell anyone.”

There was no fear in the eyes that leaked out of Fran’s fingers. She was still sizing up Jiang Li, who was controlling her.

Her voice was calm and polite as usual. She did not care about her life at all.

Jiang Li did not relax, because once the other party sounded the alarm, he would be attacked by all the Trolls on the island.

Especially that guy who was at least on the same level as the Myriad Slaughter Sect Master.

Although Jiang Li was no longer the same as before after breaking through, it was impossible for him to be a match for a big shot of that level. Whether he could escape from the other party was a problem.

However, he did not kill the other party immediately. This Armored Troll was very different.

“Big Brother, do you want to know what we are? I can tell you. I just want a few drops of dragon blood.”

Seeing that Jiang Li did not move, Fran continued.

Moreover, what made Jiang Li even more fearful was that not only had the other party noticed that he was a human, she was actually able to notice that he had dragon blood in his body.

This Armored Troll, called Gallonfran, had terrifyingly sharp eyes. Or rather, what was terrifying was her knowledge.

However, what she said did indeed arouse Jiang Li’s curiosity.

This Armored Troll, who could probably be called a ‘strange doctor’, had probably played with countless fellow humans and had analyzed their bodies thoroughly.

The Dragon Imprisoning Lock flew out and tied up the slender Troll. He then opened his palm.

“Forget about the dragon blood. I can give this piece of flesh as a substitute.”

It was impossible for Jiang Li to give his blood to such a crazy doctor in the cultivation world.

However, judging from the other party’s expression, using her life to threaten her was most likely useless.

He took out a piece of Asura’s flesh from the coffin and shook it in front of the other party.

Fran’s eyes were instantly attracted to this piece of flesh that she had never seen before.

This unknown material was extremely attractive to her.

“Alright, I accept it.”

“Then, Miss Fran, please enlighten me.”
