Farming with Entries: From Lord to Emperor-Chapter 609 - 298: The Meaning of a Knight

...

...

In Avril's personal studio.

Under the effect of the anesthesia potion, Durant slowly closed his eyes, lying quietly on the long table, with his arms bound and fixed to the table.

This anesthesia potion is made from ordinary herbs and is not considered a rare potion.

Under Luo De's modern thinking guidance, it has long become a standard item for the territory's medical department.

Perhaps Durant was too nervous, or maybe his physique was too robust, as it took him four bottles to fall into a deep sleep.

In fact, with Durant's willpower and endurance, he might have been able to endure without the anesthesia potion.

After all, the key step in fitting the skeletal prosthesis only required the runic transplant onto Durant's wrist.

The connection of the skeletal prosthesis and wrist uses leather straps, not sewn like actual undead modifications.

Nonetheless, since this was Avril's first time doing such a procedure, she specially called Luna and You Lai to help.

At this moment, the three of them stood solemnly and attentively by Durant's side.

"Luna, please start."

Luna nodded, took a deep breath, picked up a specially made sharp knife, and let the blade heat over the flame for a moment.

Then she carefully gripped the handle, her gaze locked on Durant's severed wrist.

The stump was wrapped in thick scars, the flesh contracted into a blunt round shape, the skin darkened, with coarse calluses from years of wear.

Luna was a bit nervous, but her rich experience kept her hand steady as a rock, without the slightest tremor.

She gently sliced open the flesh on Durant's severed wrist, and fresh blood instantly seeped out.

"All the outer skin needs to be peeled off, for the healthiest tissue."

Avril reminded.

Luna nodded and focused on attending to Durant's wrist.

In his sleep, Durant frowned, clearly feeling some discomfort.

But the anesthesia potion was still strong, and Durant did not wake up.

The bloody scent filled the room, and Durant's severed wrist quickly turned a bright red.

Seeing that it was about right, Avril opened a box from a nearby small table and took out a palm-sized beast hide rune.

Avril concentrated, holding the beast hide in her hands, and began to chant a spell in a low voice.

Luna and You Lai watched Avril, not daring to make a sound, fearing to disturb her.

As the spell continued, Avril's voice became ethereal, and the rune on the beast hide began to glow red.

The rune's edges also had strange patterns, slowly slithering like snakes along the rune's pathways, mysterious and eerie.

Seeing this, Avril carefully held the beast hide rune, bent down, and pressed it onto Durant's vibrant red wrist!

The moment the beast hide contacted the flesh, a hissing sound was heard, as if a hot iron had touched ice water, and even black smoke rose!

"Ugh!"

Durant let out a muffled groan with closed eyes, his body curling up like a spring!

Seeing this, Luna immediately stepped forward to hold down his shoulder, and softly soothed him.

Durant seemed to understand something and gradually returned to a lying position.

Only the tightly knit brows and clenched jaw showed that he was enduring great pain.

At this point, the rune's glow intensified, gradually piercing through the beast hide's cover.

Sweat started to bead on Avril's forehead, her hand pressing on the beast hide trembled slightly. 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮

The spell continued as the air in the room grew more blood-scented and sticky.

In the next moment, the beast hide began to wither rapidly, the once supple leather becoming dry and brittle, soon crumbling like leaves baked for countless years, scattering into dust.

However, the runes on the beast hide did not disappear, etched entirely into Durant's fresh red flesh.

At the instant the beast hide completely vanished, Durant's originally healthy pink skin on his wrist began to grow dark.

Signs of decay spread outward from the wound's center, rapidly spreading like a plague!

Durant let out another moan of pain!

His body began to twitch involuntarily, as if undergoing immense pain.

Avril knew this was the remnant decaying energy corroding Durant's flesh!

"You Lai! Quickly!"

At Avril's command, You Lai swiftly pulled the stopper from a glass bottle in her hand, pouring its contents over Durant's wrist!

A strong salty smell immediately filled the room as the purple liquid enveloped his wrist completely!

As soon as the liquid touched the decayed tissue, the gray-black rotten flesh quickly turned back to normal!

What You Lai used was the Strong Life Potion!

The purple liquid was like the sweet dew of spring, nourishing Durant's wrist, new flesh regenerating visibly, becoming full and healthy.

Durant's pained moans gradually subsided, his breathing became smooth, and his brows relaxed.

Once the flesh on Durant's wrist was fully restored, the rune's red glow also faded, transforming into tattoo-like patterns on the skin's surface.

Seeing this, Avril breathed a sigh of relief, a tired but relieved smile on her face.

"Did we succeed?" Luna carefully asked.

"It seems so."

Avril looked at the sleeping Durant again, "Once he wakes up and tries it on, we'll know."

...

...

In the Lord's Hall.

Luo De sat in the main seat, with Senda on his left, together waiting for the outcome of Durant's "surgery."
