In the center of the battlefield, a dark red mist enveloped all nearby creatures.

The crusaders who had originally surrounded Rhodes fell to the side after coming into contact with this dark red mist, and Rhodes even suspected that if they didn't use the blade in their hands to support their bodies, they would even fall directly to the ground.

The same was true for the crossbowmen in the rear, as the crossbowmen's bodies were not fully wrapped in heavy armor like the Crusaders, and Rhodes could see their reactions intuitively.

Rhodes noticed that the crossbowmen came into contact with the red mist, revealing a tiny red dot on their outer skin. The unbearable crossbowman, throwing the crossbow machine aside, kept scratching at the red dots.

Under the scratching of these crossbowmen, the tiny red dots immediately cracked, and a similar burst of red mist was released again, spreading to the surrounding area, and even more places on their bodies appeared with such red dots. The more they scratched, the more they couldn't alleviate the abnormalities on their bodies.

This dark red mist was the source of this anomaly. And the source of the dark red mist is naturally inseparable from Rhodes.

It all started with a crossbow bolt that Rod was wounded in many places when he was pinning down the crusaders and crossbowmen, and he couldn't dodge all the bolts that came in.

One of these crossbow arrows that hit Rhodes hit the pustule in his left shoulder with precision, causing it to burst.

At that time, Rod didn't feel anything unusual from the pus, and he didn't even feel the pain, until the red mist spread, and Rod didn't notice that something was wrong.

When he found that the red mist that caused the abnormality was in his left shoulder, Rod was deeply surprised, he never thought that the pustule on his body not long ago would have such an effect.

Sensing the abnormality on his body, Rod immediately checked the information in the system log, hoping to get an answer from it.

Although he didn't understand what was going on, Rhodes knew that the creation of the red mist and pustules was related to the inheritance mission he had accepted before, as well as the existence of the gluttonous contract.

…………

"Due to the influence of external forces, the contract trait [Plague of Plague] has been activated......"

"You have learned a unique skill [Blood Plague]."

"[Blood Plague]: Consume the epidemic pus, release a cloud of blood, all creatures that come into contact with the blood cloud, a large amount of blood rash will appear on the surface of the body, causing severe itching, and when the blood rash breaks, an additional blood cloud will be released. Creatures affected by the Blood Plague will gradually reduce their Constitution by 3 over a period of 5 natural days. Your size will determine the Blight Level, current level: Lv2. ”

…………

The information from the system log undoubtedly let Rod know what kind of ability he had gained at this time.

Now, Rhodes seems to have finally understood the effect of the pustule that appeared on his body as he grew in size.

According to the system, it should be called the pustule of the blight, which is an important medium used to release the blight. In the original contract trait [Plague of Plague], there was also a hint about this ability.

According to the contract trait, the blight released by the blight pustule appears to be random, and at first, Rhodes cannot choose the right blight on his own, and only after the initial release can Rhodes choose the same blight again.

At this time, the pustule of the epidemic is released, which is called the "blood plague" by the system.

Judging from the performance of nearby creatures, the effect of [Blood Plague] is mainly reflected in weakening the enemy's combat ability, using the itchy blood rash to distract the enemy in battle, so that it is impossible to fight with all its strength, and cannot directly cause effective damage to the enemy.

In addition, when Rhodes accepted the inheritance of the ancient demon, he also obtained a new ability [Plague Master], he can directly activate the [Blood Plague] in the body of other creatures, and without waiting for 5 natural days, he can directly and permanently weaken the enemy's 3 points of constitution attributes.

The existence of [Epidemic Rule] also allows Rhodes' own body to not be eroded by the [Blood Plague]. If you follow the initial prompt of [Plague of Plague], as Rhodes grows in size, his own body will gradually festering under the effect of the plague.

For ordinary humans, the effectiveness of the blood plague is acceptable, but for those who are strong-willed, or have no flesh and blood on their bodies, and whose skin is not sensitive, the power of the blood plague still has limitations.

Shaking his head, Rhodes understood that the characteristic of [Plague of Plagues] also contained many powerful plagues, and as his size increased, these unique abilities would eventually be fully displayed in front of his eyes.

Even though the [Blood Plague] still has many limitations, its existence is enough to get Rhodes out of his current predicament.

With the spread of the dark red mist, the nearby humans lost their ability to fight, and even the high-level swordsman stopped at this moment, unwilling to continue approaching.

Ignoring the nearby humans, through the previous inspection, Rhodes found that in the trial, even if he killed other creatures, he could not gain any experience points, but the injuries on his body would not disappear even if he was out of the trial.

Upon discovering this, Rhodes immediately lost interest in the humans on the battlefield and turned his attention to the group of trapped demons.

"What are you waiting for? Follow me. Looking at the leader of the demons, the human who was almost burned to death, Rhodes said in a deep voice.

With that, Rhodes casually picked up a sword blade from a dead crusader, and then left in the direction of the dense forest.

The human woman pursed her lips, looked at the dark yellow skin, and single-handedly saved the powerful demon of all the demons in the vicinity, as well as the red mist that shrouded him, and finally made a decision in her heart: "Follow him." ”

At her command, the nearby demons took action and quickly followed in the direction of Rhodes.

In the process, these abyssal demons were also contaminated with that dark red mist, but the red spots on the surface of their bodies were not obvious.

Observing the effect of the blood plague, Rhodes couldn't help but shake his head at this moment.

Perhaps due to the lack of body size, Rhodes' current [Blood Plague] level is only at the level of Lv2, and it cannot play any role for demons with special physiques.

After discovering this, Rod secretly had the idea of increasing his body size so that he could get a stronger epidemic. For Rod, who has a gluttonous contract, the best way to increase his size is to eat other creatures.

In the illusion, no matter what Rhodes ates, it will not help his body shape. Rhodes had to complete the trial mission as soon as possible, return to hell, and then find a way to find a way from the other demons.
