Chapter 41: The Reappearance of the Bloodline
The northern region is about fifty kilometers away from the territory of Darkstone City.
The vine river meanders here, flanked by cliffs. On the cliffs, there are mostly all kinds of hanging coffins and tombs.
At this time, the night was deep and silent. Occasionally, a waterfowl or two will fly by.
In a tomb, a black afterimage flashed.
Then, a blood man with reddish eyes, a black blood windbreaker, and pointed ears quietly appeared here.
"During this period of cultivation, I have finally grown to the middle stage of the second order."
"I have to say that the blood of those human beings is really fertile and delicious. After absorbing the blood of a few thousand more humans, then I can completely advance to the third rank. ”
Thinking of this, the blood man couldn't help but laugh.
"Qingyu, Qingyu, you sealed me back then, and now? Although my strength has fallen to the lowest point, I have broken the seal, and you have rotted and turned to dust, hahaha......"
Thinking of this, the blood man laughed again, and the laughter was wanton and free, so that the surrounding waterfowl that inhabited here couldn't help but wake up and scream.
"Although you are strong, you can't withstand the withering of time. And our bloodline has a much, much longer lifespan than you humans. ”
"Back then, you sealed me in order to prevent me from sucking you humans, and now, I have broken the seal and come out, and I will devour, absorb and digest all the humans in this area. Hey, hey, hey......"
As he spoke, the blood man smiled coldly.
"Wait, I will kill all of you humans to avenge the seal for more than a thousand years."
As soon as the words fell, the blood man leaped forward, and had already turned into a bat, flying away at such a fast speed that it was like lightning.
…………
On this day, it was mid-noon.
Eighteen potion furnaces inside the stone tower are refining potions.
Gune, on the other hand, sat on one side, rubbing a withered yellow walnut-sized wooden source core in his hand.
This wooden source core was the only treasure that Gune had opened from the twelve triple source pattern treasure chests.
However, to Gune's pity, he didn't know what this wooden source core was.
No matter how much he manipulated the wood element with the source power, the mind, or even the ancient ne, he could not detect the slightest trace of the inside of this wood source core.
The invisible surface cut off all means of investigation.
Obviously, this is a mysterious treasure that Gune's current means are simply out of reach.
"Something like wood, and I'm a wood elementalist. In the future, if you look at some more wooden treasures, you will eventually find out what this wooden source core is. Gune thought to himself.
"Lord Castle, something big has happened, and the blood clan has reappeared." At this moment, a sudden hurried voice sounded outside the door, it was Darwin's voice.
"Again?" Gune's expression couldn't help but move slightly.
After Darwin's explanation, Goune learned what had happened.
During this time, the people dispersed the blood according to the method described by Gune. For more than ten days in a row, the blood clan did not appear. Everyone thought the blood was gone.
Who would have expected that last night. The Bloodline reappeared.
"Overnight, in the territory of the 'Water Teng Castle' on the north side, there were more than 120 people sucked into dry corpses by the blood clan."
"More than one hundred and twenty people, all washed into dried corpses?" Goune's expression moved.
"Yes, more than 120 people, just a little more." Darwin affirmed.
"It seems that the strength of that blood clan has made a breakthrough!" Gune said secretly.
"However, in this way, after capturing that blood clan, the benefits are even more beneficial."
Then Goune looked at Darwin, "How are all the things I asked you to prepare during this time?" ”
"It's all ready." Darwin said respectfully.
"Good." Gune nodded slightly.
During this time, although Gu Ne practiced alchemy, he did not do less to prepare for the blood clan.
Although Gune has now learned two powerful spells, Gune still has many other preparations. After all, a high-level bloodline bloodline, that's not easy to deal with.
"Tell the people that no one is allowed to approach the castle tonight, no matter what happens there. Violators should be beheaded. After thinking about it for a while, Gune said very cautiously.
"Yes." Darwin nodded in response.
During this time, Darwin was in charge of the entire fortress, and under its operation, the entire fortress seemed to be monolithic, and no one dared not obey his orders.
"As long as you dare to come, then tonight will be the day of your fall." On the way to the castle, Gune said secretly in his heart.
In order to deal with that blood clan specifically, Gune has put a lot of effort into it. During this time, a lot of the gold coins earned by Gune were invested. However, for safety, Gune also needs to carefully check and prepare.
The news of the reappearance of the Blood Clan soon swept through the entire castle around Darkstone City.
All of a sudden, everyone was in danger.
Even before night falls, when the sun has just set, there are already a large number of castle towns, where a raging fire is lit.
The blood clan is one of the "dark races" that humans came into contact with relatively early.
It is fast, powerful, has the ability to suck blood, can transform into a bat, and is afraid of the sun's rays. These iconic features make it easy to remember the Bloodline.
At the same time, the strength of the blood clan has had many disasters in the history of mankind. Make human memory deeper.
Of course, the most frightening thing for humans is the "first embrace" of the blood clan.
Bloodlines can use the "First Possession" to transform humans into their own low-level kindreds, that is, low-level bloods. The Bloodline, on the other hand, has a lifespan that is unimaginable to humans.
In the Middle Ages, at that time, the human world was far less vast than it is now. At that time, the aristocracy, in order to have a longer life. There were even many nobles who were willing to give up their human identities and become slaves of the Bloodline.
I have to say that it was a very dark time.
It's a pity that the realm of human beings is not a dark world after all.
Whenever the sun rose, those blood clans would crouch in the dark coffin, sleeping and waiting, only then would they understand that the Hanshenjia Continent is alternate between day and night, unlike the dark world, which is eternally dark.
At the same time, it is precisely because of the sunlight that the human world has not been occupied by the blood clans.
Today, humanity is getting stronger.
With the invasion of alien races, human beings have begun to enlighten in all aspects of mechanical use, scientific knowledge, source force system, and order sequence.
At the same time, he also realized that although the Bloods are powerful, they are only one of the dark races, and they are much more powerful than the Bloodlines.
The order sequence of the source pattern era, the development of steampunk. Obviously, "steam" and "source pattern" coexist, and "science" and "order" coexist.
It was undoubtedly a wonderful time, and Gune enjoyed all that it had to offer.
The tide of the times is surging and advancing, just like a steam train, pulling the black gold coal dug out from the depths of the mine, strong and full of hope.
In the era of this wave, an inconspicuous wave blooms leisurely, and the time it blooms is tonight.
