Volume 1: The Curtain of the Night, Chapter 12: Soul Bloodline (Part 2)
Xia Zuo didn't hear Fred's whispering, only to see him take the transparent test tube given by Fred, hold the dagger, and lightly cut a cut on his arm without hesitation.
Drops of dark red blood dripped down Xia Zuo's arm and fell into the transparent test tube.
"There's nothing strange about my blood being this color, isn't it?" Xia Zuo seemed to think of something suddenly, and then asked Fred.
After all, he was also curious if the blood of the soul descendants was like this.
"Pretty much. Fred looked away from the dagger in Xia Zuo's hand, looked at Xia Zuo's blood, smiled slightly, and gave an ambiguous answer, which was not answered clearly.
Immediately afterwards, when there was half a tube of Xia Zuo's blood in the transparent test tube, Xia Zuo tore off a piece of cloth on his body, skillfully wrapped around the wound, and stopped the bleeding.
"It's really a simple and rough treatment, although this is no problem at all for the soul descendant, anyway, the soul descendant's body self-healing ability is very strong. Fred smiled.
"yes, if I didn't have this ability, I'm afraid I don't know how many times I'd die. Xia Zuo couldn't help but smile, "So what are you going to do next?"
"Give me the tube. Fred said.
Xia Zuo handed the transparent test tube containing half a tube of blood to Fred, and Fred took the test tube, a faint light rose from the bottom of his eyes, and then shook the test tube slightly.
"Wait a little longer, there will be some strange changes in this half-tube of blood later...... Then I can know what your soul lineage looks like. Fred laughed, then somehow took out a small test tube rack from his body and placed the test tubes on the shelf.
"Now we can talk about something else. ”
For example...... Your dagger. Fred paused, looked at the dagger, and spoke.
"Oh yes!" Xia Zuo seemed to suddenly understand what Fred meant, "You know this dagger, it can directly hurt those ghosts, so is it some special weapon?"
"A special weapon...... That's right. Fred reached out to Xia Zuo for the dagger, and Xia Zuo hesitated slightly, but finally handed the dagger to Fred.
Fred's hand gently stroked the surface of the dagger, the surface of the dagger was very smooth, and he looked at it carefully, then shook his head and returned the dagger to Xia Zuo, who looked a little nervous.
"I can be sure, though, that I don't recognize this soul weapon. Fred thought for a moment, then replied to Xia Zuo.
"Soul weapons?" Xia Zuo asked.
"To put it simply, it's a weapon that contains soul matter. Fred said.
"This soul weapon is different from ordinary weapons, it can directly affect soul creatures, even if it is used by ordinary people, ordinary people can even kill soul creatures with this weapon. ”
"Soul weapons usually need to go through a particularly complex process to be produced, and to get a soul weapon, especially a more delicate and high-quality soul weapon, it often requires the power of a soul craftsman, and a soul craftsman is a rare profession even in the current era, which is one of the reasons why powerful soul weapons are scarce. ”
"And your soul dagger, to be honest, this is not a very powerful and precious soul weapon just from the dagger, after all, the dagger can do too few things, and it can usually only be used for melee defense. ”
"The quality belongs to the kind that can be mass-produced by the Soul Descent Council and then distributed to the soul hunters underneath. ”
"Uh...... That means that my dagger is actually a standard mass-produced product for soul hunters of the soul descendants?" Xia Zuo was slightly frustrated, after all, it was a valuable item given to Xia Zuo by the hunter's uncle, and Xia Zuo was inevitably a little uncomfortable when Fred said this.
"It's not wrong to say that the quality is equivalent to mass production. Fred laughed, "It's just ...... There is something very special about this dagger. ”
"What?" asked Xia Zuo curiously.
"It should be quite old, maybe ordinary people can't see it, but this dagger is at least eighty years old, no, it may be a soul weapon made ninety years ago, or it may be even older. ”
"Antique?" Xia Zuo snorted involuntarily, "Then it's still in such good condition." ”
In Xia Zuo's impression, the first time he saw this dagger should be seven or eight years ago, that was when he first met the old hunter, so many years later, this dagger is still as good as new, I didn't expect that it has not only gone through these seven or eight years, but also may have another ninety years of history.
"For soul weapons, it's normal to have this shelf life, okay. Fred glanced at Xia Zuo.
"If you go back about a hundred years, it was the Third Age: The Age of Balances had just begun, and in your ordinary people's opinion, it was the beginning of the Lingyin Age of the Hengli Calendar, a new era that had not yet developed. At that time, soul weapons were still a rare item for ordinary soul descendants, and the council did not have soul descendant craftsmen that could be organized in a unified manner, nor did they have the technology to mass-produce ordinary soul weapons. ”
"At that time, if you can get a soul weapon, even if it is a soul dagger, it will be very valuable. ”
"Eighty or ninety years have passed, and although the quality of this soul dagger is average for the soul descendants of this era, its value is still self-evident. I think there will be a lot of people who will be willing to collect this old antique. ”
"In addition, being able to possess such an antique soul dagger is enough to prove that the identity of the owner must be unusual. ”
"So where did you get this soul dagger? I originally thought you were a wild soul descendant who had left the soul descendant society, but I didn't expect you to suddenly take out such a soul weapon. ”
"That's not right. Fred frowned slightly, as if thinking about something.
How could a wild soul descendant who had escaped from the soul descendant society have such a precious soul weapon?
"Wait a minute, but I remember that the uncle who gave me this dagger is not that old......" Xia Zuo suddenly thought of something and asked out loud.
"The aging rate of the Soul Descendant is very slow...... Fred couldn't help but hold his forehead, "It seems that you really lack the knowledge of the Soul Descendant. In addition, even if it wasn't the 'uncle' you said personally got it back then, being able to get this dagger and give it to you without mercy is enough to prove that the identity of the 'uncle' in your mouth is not simple. ”
"I didn't expect you to live with such an uncle who is actually a soul descendant, and he actually didn't teach you the relevant knowledge of the soul descendant, this is really curious, who is he and what is his real purpose......" The corners of Fred's mouth rose, it seemed that he was always interested in these unknown and strange things.
"Alright, that's all for that. Fred stopped thinking at the right time, as the captain Arnos said, as the vice-captain of the team, although he will always be distracted by some interesting things, he still maintains a sense as a vice-captain, and knows how to stop at the right time.
"I think we'll have a lot of time to address these issues in the future, and it's more important to address this ghost attack. Fred smiled.
"In order to solve this problem, I hope you had better awaken the appropriate extraordinary ability with tracking function. ”
"Now let's see what level your soul bloodline is. ”
Fred looked over there, and at the same time shifted Xia Zuo's attention back to the small test tube rack.
I saw that the only transparent test tube containing blood on the test tube rack had some changes compared to before.
Xia Zuo's blood, which was originally in the transparent test tube, seemed to have disappeared at this time, and in its place, a small mysterious solid crystal appeared.
This small solid crystal is transparent and colorless, oozing a faint glow.
Xia Zuo was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect that his blood would actually turn into the solid crystal he is now.
Fred, who was on the side, was also suddenly stunned, and came back to his senses after a while.
"Colorless level soul blood?"
"There's something wrong with that. ”
Fred suddenly frowned.
