Starting with Blood Healing to become an Ancient God

Strangely, no one cared about the missing people; everyone was captivated by the mystery and noise of the place, and everyone wanted to soar to great heights here.

Those who come here don't care about the lives of others; they only care about their own reputation and money.

It was precisely because of these people who valued money over their lives that Arkham, which had always lagged behind and moved at a slow pace, began to develop rapidly and greatly boosted the work enthusiasm of the locals.

After all, these Arkham locals don't want to be seen by outsiders as a bunch of lazy bums who only know how to reap the benefits of others' labor. This would not only tarnish the reputation of Arkham, but could also bring shame to the great mayor!

As a result, Arkham rapidly developed, absorbing talents and resources from all walks of life at a pace that brought new changes every day.

…………

May 15, 1931, Monday, sunny.

As soon as he got up in the morning, Los stretched comfortably, turned around and drew back the curtains. The soft, bright sunlight shone in, making Los feel warm all over.

Mid-May is almost the best time of year in Arkham, with daytime temperatures stabilizing at around 20 degrees Celsius, making it pleasantly mild.

"What a beautiful day!" Los looked out through the huge floor-to-ceiling window, a look of contentment on his face.

Los's residence has now been moved from its previous remote location next to Arkham Sanatorium to a picturesque hill at the junction of the central and eastern districts.

Surrounded by trees, filled with birdsong and fragrant flowers, the neat stone-paved road leads directly to the main road along the gentle hillside, and the entire hill is Los's yard.

At the top of the gentle hillside, Los built the grand villa he had always dreamed of.

The entire villa covers an area of ​​800 square meters and has four floors, with the first and second floors being a duplex structure.

The entire villa was still constructed using Longyang steel, and was built by Los, Shoggoth, and Lilith themselves. It can be said that every brick and tile was created by the two of them.

The entire villa presents a neat and clean gray-white color, with some silver and gold decorations in the middle, making it look very simple and elegant.

The villa doesn't have much space; apart from the dining room and kitchen, the first floor is just a huge living room.

There is a swimming pool behind the living room, a green lawn in front, and a solid wood porch outside, which looks full of natural style.

The living room on the inside has a floor and ceiling height of eight meters, and is decorated with a huge and complex chandelier, highlighting its grandeur.

The furniture also maintains a very simple and elegant style, with black, white, gray, and a small amount of yellow and blue forming the overall tone of the room.

The entire second floor has ten guest rooms for entertaining guests.

The huge third floor has nothing but a huge bedroom that is a full 200 square meters, a huge study and a walk-in closet.

The fourth floor is the attic, with the entire roof made of transparent glass, where you can clearly see the starry sky outside.

When Los moved into this perfect villa, he was so excited that he didn't sleep for three days. He looked at this and that, feeling extremely happy and excited. Everything was new and exciting, and he liked everything so much.

After all, this was the wonderful life that Los had always longed for.

Today, Los's room is one of the highest points in the entire Arkham. From here, one can clearly overlook the East Wing, the Central Wing, the North Wing, and the Port Wing, and even see the hills of the French Riviera.

Without a sound, Lilith hugged Los from behind.

Feeling that huge, erect thing pressing against his back, Los said with a look of enjoyment, "This is the perfect life I've always wanted!"

Chapter 0359 Four Quiet Months

After breakfast, Los lay lazily on the sofa and said, "This is so comfortable. I wish I could lie here forever without having to move."

Hearing this, Lilith laughed and said, "Then there are too few people here. Master, why don't you bring Minnie over too? She's been so busy lately that she looks a bit haggard. I feel like her breasts have gotten smaller."

“She needs your touch right now,” Lilith said seductively.

After listening, Los looked at Lilith with a strange expression. This girl seemed to have been trying to stuff Minnie into her bed so that she could enjoy watching Los tidy up Minnie.

Lilith, of course, knew that Los had already seen through her thoughts, and her face flushed with excitement as she said, "That's going to be very exciting!"

Los, lounging like a slouch, stared at the ceiling and imagined the scene, finding it quite thrilling.

“Yes, this idea can be put on the agenda, but Minnie seems to be quite busy lately,” Los said.

Lilith nodded and said, "The port started operating a week ago, and she's been there keeping an eye on things. Perhaps you praised her a little too much last week, which is why she's so excited now, like she's on steroids, and she's in a state of constant euphoria."

Los recalled that last week, when the port was completed, he had given special praise to Minnie in front of everyone for her work over the past four months.

Because she has prevented sixty enemy attacks on the port and twenty-three spies from infiltrating the port in the past four months, and personally dealt with a large number of attacking clans, she has made a great contribution to the timely delivery of the port.

Recalling Minnie's state at the time, Ross noticed that her eyes were sparkling with tears, and she was extremely excited, even trembling.

Lilith continued, "In a few days, Minnie will be less busy, so it'll be a good opportunity for her to keep you company. Consider it the greatest reward for her!"

Los didn't refuse after hearing this, and sat up slightly to ask, "Has the military not taken any action yet?"

Lilith shook her head: "No, they seem to have completely gone into hiding, making almost no move."

"Something's definitely up to no good if things aren't going well. Tell Sheena to be extra careful."

The past four months have been remarkably peaceful. The military seems to have vanished, causing Los Angeles no trouble whatsoever, and not even sending a single spy.

Los, of course, didn't hold back. Since you've given me time to develop, I'll develop with all my might.

With the assistance of Shoggoth, Arkham's Extraordinary Creature Containment Facility is now fully constructed, and all the contained objects have been moved inside.

Meanwhile, the Arkham Blood Therapy Research Institute has also been completed, located directly opposite the Arkham Sanatorium.

The institute is still led by Murthy, and its staff has been greatly expanded, now numbering seventy researchers.

Due to the unique nature of the research, although these seventy people are all top-notch medical professionals, they each have their own unique pasts.

The progress these people made under Morsi's leadership was nothing short of miraculous.

On the other hand, the Ur researchers led by Zak also spent a month in Arkham.

During this month, he and Mursi deeply integrated blood healing techniques with the Ur people's flesh and blood technology, complementing each other. Even the ten Ur people tried the wonders of blood healing techniques.

And then... they were overrun.

They were shocked to discover that the blood healing technique that Los had now mastered was the ultimate goal that their flesh and blood technology had always wanted to achieve.

Upon receiving this information, Zack and his team became completely engrossed in it and began researching it day and night.

Their knowledge base was naturally far superior to that of Murthy and his contemporaries. During the month of research, they constantly learned from, taught, and drew inspiration from each other.

This directly raised the overall level of blood therapy by a significant margin.

Today, blood therapy not only has powerful effects, but it has also devoured the technology tree of flesh and blood technology, enabling inorganic matter to directly gain life through blood.

Blood therapy can even precisely push back the evolution of a species by several eras.

At the same time, both sides gained a more detailed understanding of the use and principles of blood therapy, as well as a deeper exploration of the blood and special properties of various animals.

They even discovered that blood therapy could cure some of the Ur people's unique and incurable diseases, which delighted Zack and the others and further confirmed that their decision to join them was the right one.

Along with the development of blood therapy, various byproducts derived from it also emerged.

Examples include temporary enhancers, special flesh-and-blood bullets, flesh-and-blood nails to help secure steel on construction sites, and even tobacco mixed with special blood.

Of course, the most widespread type is blood wine.

Today, blood wine from Arkham is truly in short supply, because only Arkham can produce authentic blood wine, so the entire Empire's supply of blood wine comes from Arkham.

Although Los used Shoggoth to build six Bloodbrew factories on the outskirts of Arkham, it was still a drop in the ocean.

This has even led to the emergence of blood wine merchants who specialize in snatching up orders for blood wine here.

As long as you manage to grab just one bottle, you can reap terrifying profits dozens of times over.

This is why the entire Arkham government made a fortune.

In just four months, the Arkham government earned a staggering 120 million Rosa coins from blood therapy, blood wine, and other related products.

It is precisely because of such a huge amount of money that Arkham, this beast, can keep moving forward.

In addition to the expenses of various large projects, there are also many other businesses that the Arkham government is spending money on, such as street renovations, sewer repairs, water pipe repairs, electrical circuit repairs, and the addition of movie theaters.

“Thanks to Murthy and Zach for developing such a convenient commercial blood therapy technique, otherwise we really wouldn’t have enough money,” Los sighed.

Even with such high profits, the Arkham government's finances remain very tight because the city is developing rapidly and there are simply too many places where money is needed.

At the same time, for the development of individual businesses, the banking system still needs to operate, and you still need to provide loans to business owners, etc.

This has kept Los constantly busy for the past few months.

Fortunately, with the commissioning of shipbuilding and port a week ago, the Arkham government finally had some revenue other than blood therapy.

And these revenues increased as the number of ships gradually increased!

“Mayor, news from Charles is that Butler Carrington has reappeared. Although he is still loitering around Dunwich, the area he is loitering around has obviously expanded.”

“His current range of wandering is about twice what it was five months ago.”

Los sat up and stroked his chin: "This shows that the other world's encroachment on space is gradually increasing. It's time to go and see what's going on."

Chapter 0360 The Conditions for Lilith to Become a Demigod

In the past month, Los rarely ventured out of his large villa, only to find several people who looked like reporters taking pictures of the beautiful street scenes of the East End with the latest cameras.

The East District has transformed from its former backwardness and decay. It has recently adopted the latest technology from Arkham, making it look clean and efficient.

All the streets here are wide, four-way roads, made of concrete, and already have the rudiments of modern highways.

Neat low elm trees line both sides of the road, while a well-maintained sidewalk runs along the other side.

Every ten meters along the wide sidewalk, a verdant willow tree sways gently in the breeze, creating a serene and tranquil atmosphere throughout the street.

On both sides of the street, there are neat residential areas.

All the buildings in the community are neatly arranged seven stories high.

The entire building uses a gray and light yellow color scheme, and as a whole, it looks like a series of very neat and beautiful giant cuboids.

The spacing between them is meticulously designed, exactly the same, and both sides are completely symmetrical, making it look very comfortable and natural.

Just a quick plug: this is the reading app I've been using lately. It has a huge library of books, a wide selection, and fast updates!

At that moment, these young people were by a bridge, taking pictures of the weeping willows and buildings on both sides of the river through the trickling water.

"My goodness, this place is so beautiful!" The young people were very excited as they looked at the results in the camera.

Thanks to Los's efforts, camera technology has now entered the color era.

This technology is not widespread and is only used on a small scale in Arkham.

"My God! What kind of camera is this? How did you do that?" another young man asked in astonishment.

The young man leading the group laughed and said, "I borrowed this from my friend, who lives in Arkham and works at a movie theater. That's how he got the chance to try out this groundbreaking new camera!"

"My God! It's actually colorful, and you can even see it! That's amazing!" Another young man exclaimed in shock.
