As an NPC, having a lot of skills is quite reasonable, right?

As expected, an accident occurred. On his way back, Moen took a wrong turn and found himself in a huge hot lake.

Moen's heart skipped a beat; there was no doubt that something extraordinary was going on in this scene.

He immediately returned the way he came, and the moment he returned to the passage, he caught a glimpse of a huge island in the center of the hot lake move slightly. It was the wild boss of the Sulfur Cave, [Lord of Boiling - Molten Throat].

Fortunately, Moen reacted quickly, otherwise he would have been stopped.

After a series of close calls, Moen finally returned to the manor, where Elwin had already converted a makeshift operating room in the basement.

Moen placed the temperature-controlled container holding the herbs on the table and opened the lid.

A scorching wave of heat surged out instantly; even after leaving the hot spring, the Molten Lotus still carried terrifying fire elemental energy.

"This medicinal herb can perfectly solve the problem of ice element in Lily's body." Elwin observed the quality of the Molten Lotus.

"But Lily's constitution is too fragile. If this level of medicine is introduced directly, her meridians will be instantly burned to ashes by the fire element."

"We need an extremely cold medium, preferably a mutated, lord-level biological skeleton that is skilled in using ice-based skills."

"We can grind it into powder and use it as a neutralizing agent."

After speaking, Erwin turned his gaze to Moen, a hint of expectation in his eyes.

Moen's lips twitched.

I shouldn't have let Elwin see the snow mammoth ivory when we moved, and I shouldn't have lent it to her after she begged for 10 minutes.

When Moen brought it back, he noticed that the tip of the ivory was flattened. He went over to question Alvin, and sure enough, she had rubbed off a bit for research.

"What's the difference between your description and naming names?"

Despite his complaints, Moen didn't hesitate at all as he took out the snow mammoth tusk from his backpack.

Alvin's eyes lit up, and he even swallowed hard, disregarding his image.

She quickly took the ivory, used the alchemy table's cutting tool to cut off a small piece, then ground it into powder with a grinding tool, and mixed the bone powder with the petals of the molten lotus according to the proportions in the book.

Pink petals and ivory powder, along with some auxiliary herbs, are boiled together in a crucible, eventually merging into a small pool of purplish-gold liquid.

After filling the bottle with the medicine, Green looked at his daughter, who was lying on the stone platform with weak breathing: "Lily, just bear with it."

The medicine entered my throat in just one second.

"Ah!!" Lily, who was unconscious, suddenly let out a painful scream.

Her skin would heat up rapidly one moment and then form a thick layer of frost the next.

Two completely opposite forces clashed wildly within her body, causing the blood that had just seeped from her skin to evaporate or freeze.

"No! The conflict is too intense!" Elwin's expression changed drastically. He placed his hands on Lily's head and tried to channel his magic, but to little avail.

"Her meridians are too thin to withstand the conflict between these two forces. The book you showed me didn't explain how to deal with this situation."

Seeing Lily's breath rapidly fading, Green collapsed to the ground in despair, tears streaming down his face.

"Make way." Moen squeezed in and placed one hand on Lily's forehead.

【Bloodstained Frost Robe】Activated.

This time, Moen did not use it as a skill, but instead used the magic flow path granted by the skill to precisely mobilize the icy magic and slowly channel it into Lily's body.

As energy surged in, Moen's magic almost instantly suppressed the rampaging ordinary ice elements within Lily's body.

The raging ice element within Lily's body became docile and began to merge orderly with the fire element brought by the herbs, following the path guided by Moen.

The elemental conflict was resolved, but the crisis was not over.

The impact just now consumed too much of Lily's life force, and her life force is still slowly disappearing.

In Moen's status bar, the duration of the Lie Limit was down to only 1 second, and the side effects were about to kick in.

All attributes reduced by 80%

"Now!"

If the conditions are met, Moen casts [Adversity Baptism].

The basement was flooded with blinding white light.

A surge of life energy flowed wildly from Moen's palm into Lily's lifeless body.

Lily's withered life force was rekindled, and her damaged blood vessels healed rapidly in the light.

A few seconds later, the light faded, and both of Moen's trump cards went into cooldown. But looking at the little girl on the stone platform, he smiled with relief.

"worth."

Lily's originally dry and yellow hair has now turned completely into a snow-white color.

Her breathing was steady and strong, and she was no longer weak as before.

"Lily! Lily!"

Green rushed to the stone platform to check on his daughter. Seeing that she was safe and sound, he instinctively turned around and wanted to kneel down and kowtow to Moen.

Just as his knees bent, he remembered Moen's earlier words, "Stand up straight," and abruptly stopped in mid-air.

So the middle-aged man made a comical squatting motion, wiping away tears as he did so, saying, "Thank you... thank you, my benefactor..."

Moen paid no attention to Green's comical performance; his gaze fell on Lily's trembling eyelashes as the little girl slowly opened her eyes.

Her left eye remained black, but her right eye had turned into a deep, clear ice blue.

Her face, now refreshed and radiant, coupled with her indifferent expression, bore a striking resemblance to Arya.

"Lily?" Green called out cautiously.

Lily turned her head and looked at her father, whose face was streaked with tears. The frost in her eyes melted a little, and she gave a faint smile: "I feel great now, Dad."

Then, her gaze shifted to Moen standing to the side, and that aloof feeling vanished instantly.

She jumped off the stone platform and grabbed Moen's leg, pressing her cheek tightly against Moen's waist.

"Ahem!" Moen raised his hands to show his innocence and cast a questioning look at Elwin.

Elwin observed the two closely for a while and concluded, "It must have been a magical resonance."

"Just now you forcibly took over her body with your own magic and helped her reshape her circuits."

"The frost magic flowing through her body now bears your mark. To her, you are not only her savior, but also a family member of the same origin."

Seeing Moen's somewhat speechless expression, Elwin added:

"That's a good thing. I can sense that your ice magic is quite powerful. If Lily uses this magic in combination with her physique, she will definitely have a bright future, at least reaching the level of a sage."

The sage Elwin was referring to was that if Lily joined the Star Pattern Academy, she would at least become a mage with a celestial-level skill.

Green watched as his daughter clung to Moen, and instead of stopping her, he smiled broadly.

In his simple logic, the closer his daughter was to her benefactor, the safer she would be in the family, and the more secure her future would be.

Moen looked at the silver-haired, heterochromatic-eyed little girl beside him, feeling both helpless and amused.

That evening, in the lobby on the first floor.

The Blackberry Farm has regained its lively atmosphere after a long time.

Previously, Alvin had confidently declared that she would demonstrate the nutritious alchemical meal she had secretly learned at the Starweave Academy's dining hall, but the result was so strangely colored that it looked like poison, so Moen forbade her from entering the kitchen.

Since Green arrived, he has been in charge of the kitchen.

"It must be said that this alchemist's culinary skills are absolutely masterful; he made simple roasted lamb chops and mushroom soup incredibly fragrant."

A man surnamed Mo, who wished to remain anonymous, commented as follows.

Alvin was nestled on the sofa near the fireplace, engrossed in reading the "Fragment of the Magic Circulation Guide" that Moen had brought back.

"Following Mr. Moen was definitely the right decision! This book isn't even available at the academy!"

Alvin was glad he made the choice, while Moen leaned against the kitchen doorway without any regard for his image, secretly eating a freshly baked lamb chop.

"Wow, Green, your cooking is amazing!"

Behind him, a small figure followed closely.

Moen took a bite of the lamb chop and casually tore off a piece of meat from somewhere else and stuffed it into her mouth.

Lily obediently opened her mouth and ate, her heterochromatic eyes filled with satisfaction, her cheeks puffed out like a little hamster eating.

Although her demeanor has become colder, her sensible and obedient nature remains unchanged.

Looking at Lily now, Moen felt like he liked her even more.

Of course, it's the kind of affection elders have for younger generations.

This was just an ordinary evening at Blackberry Farm.
