Elemental earth is not just any ordinary soil outside. It is a special substance close to the essence of earth elements and exists almost only naturally in the elemental planes, elemental creatures, and some magical minerals.
The ancient earthen spirits, the ancestors of dwarves, are almost composed of this pure substance.
Understood. This formula is to use the physical mechanism of dwarves to resist poison. It's really simple and crude.
According to Jess's memory, elemental earth can only be obtained with a small probability by killing living earth elementals. And these elements roam in some extremely dangerous places. With his ability, he doesn't need to think about looking for it himself.
When playing the game, Jess once made his first pot of gold in the early version by making elemental whetstones with elemental earth. Even in the game world where there are terrifying warriors everywhere who can single-handedly fight young dragons, the price of elemental earth is also quite expensive.
After flipping through a few pages back and forth, this book doesn't introduce the acquisition method and price of elemental earth in this world. He can only go to "Alchemist's Needs" and ask.
Entering the store, this time Ruth is not here. The person watching the store is a young blonde girl.
"Hello, what can I do for you?"
Jess asked, "Are you, Maria Lumir?"
The girl said, "It's me. Mother is out. I'm helping watch the store. I remember your voice. You are the herbalist, right?"
"Yes." Jess slightly relaxed. If Ruth were here, she might guess that he was poisoned by corpse poison. At that time, she might even make sarcastic remarks.
"I want to know the price of elemental earth."
"Elemental earth?" The girl opened her mouth in surprise and said, "You... Do you want to place an order? I can tell my mother and ask her to write a letter to Dalaran or Lordaeron and ask if the alchemists there have any in stock and plan to sell... It may take about two or three months. I can't give you a definite date."
Jess had a very familiar feeling, which was the feeling he had when he listened to the owner of Duncan's Tailoring Shop talk about how that 7-gold-coin dress came about.
He was no longer very interested in the price of elemental earth. After all, the activity cost of writing a letter, contacting alchemists in several cities, and then waiting for several months had far exceeded his imagination.
"No need." Jess waved his hand. Just as he was about to leave, he turned around again.
"Do you know any good way to remove corpse poison?"
"Remove corpse poison?" Maria said, "You can go to the Cathedral of Light and ask."
Yes... Why not go find a priest?
Jess suddenly felt like a fool. After thanking her, he rushed out of the alchemy room.
Just after noon, walking quickly on the street by the Stormwind Canal. Although the sky was a bit gloomy, Jess still felt as if everything had a layer of halo around it.
Perhaps it was because of the waves on the surface of the canal. Perhaps after learning about the symptoms of corpse poison, he began to pay more attention to these unusual feelings.
Now he began to feel uncomfortable all over. It seemed that he would soon turn into a zombie. Thinking about this, his legs and feet began to become uncoordinated.
The sunlight became more and more dazzling. The sun shining on his body made his skin hurt. Was he about to turn into a vampire on the spot? Creating the San'layn race more than ten years in advance...
Would walking fast accelerate the spread of venom throughout the body? Jess remembered hearing that if one is poisoned by a snake, one cannot engage in intense activities, otherwise one will die faster.
Thinking like this, the things in front of him seemed even more blurred.
The church square was originally in the northernmost part of Stormwind City. After surrounding expansions and renovations, the city expanded a bit to the north. Currently, the church square has become the city center and is surrounded by a large number of construction sites.
During the war, the cathedral served as a shelter for refugees for a long time. Now, many citizens whose homes have not been fully rebuilt still live on the church square.
Even though the Cathedral of Light has not been fully rebuilt yet, with scaffolds and ladders still densely stacked on the tall towers and white walls, it is still magnificent enough.
While admiring the majestic stature of the cathedral all the way and crossing the newly built canal bridge, before seeing the gate of the church square, Jess was stopped by a guard.
"The king and queen are visiting the sick and suffering refugees in the church square. No idlers are allowed to enter."
"I'm also sick." Jess said, "And it's very serious... I need the help of a priest."
"What's wrong?"
"I'm poisoned. It might be corpse poison."
The guard lifted Jess's chin and took a look at his neck.
"I can't tell what it is, but you do seem a bit off... You can go in, but don't go to the square. People there won't let you in either. Some priests are taking care of patients in that building on the left. You can try your luck."
"Thank you so much."
After Jess was let through, he originally wanted to go straight to the small building pointed out by the guard. But he suddenly became curious about what the still-teenage King Varian Wrynn looked like.
When passing the entrance of the church square, he glanced inside and saw rows of guards and nobles in expensive clothes blocking the entrance.
Behind the crowd, the blue-background lion flag was slowly moving. From time to time, cheers and praises could be heard. That was probably where the king was, but nothing could be seen here.
Several guards blocking the street stared at Jess who was looking around inside. Jess didn't dare to stay any longer and had to go to the building.
It's such a pity that I couldn't see the king.
Jess felt like he had a bit of a star-chasing mentality. But after crossing over, without giving any golden fingers or powerful bloodlines, are people not even allowed to chase stars?
Entering the small building where the guard said temporary patients and citizens were placed, there were many patients waiting to see a doctor. Many priests were surrounded. A tall man who didn't know if he was a paladin or a guard was maintaining order, but it didn't seem to be very effective.
Just as a female priest had finished talking to an injured person who was being supported by others, Jess directly squeezed over.
"Hello... Priest, do you have time?"
"Sure, what can I do for you?"
Jess remembered his experience of seeing a doctor in a public hospital before crossing over. Facing a large number of all kinds of patients with all kinds of strange questions, it was really not easy for the doctor to stay calm.
And the priests here are even more exaggerated. After saying that, she actually showed a smile to Jess. Although this smile was accompanied by fatigue and sweat stains and only lasted for a moment before disappearing.
"I think I'm poisoned by corpse poison..."
"Corpse poison? Are you sure, sir? Where did you go that might have made you poisoned by corpse poison? Getting poisoned by corpse poison probably requires being attacked by ghouls..."
"I went to the cemetery and cut my hand."
The priest looked down suspiciously, rolled up Jess's sleeve and looked at the veins on Jess's neck and arms. There was a slight glimmer in her eyes.
"Come with me."
