The bumpy back of the horse, the noisy crash of armor, the gasping of horses, the chirping of birds in the woods, and the tapping of horses, all kinds of sounds faintly reached Alan's ears, and his vague consciousness became more and more clear.

The whole body seemed to be full of wounds, very painful, Alan wanted to struggle to get up in a daze, but he touched the "injury" on his body, and couldn't help but tremble.

"Are you awake?" a gentle and steady voice appeared next to his ears, very familiar.

"Jacob's voice?" the thought crossed Alan's mind. He wanted to open his eyes, but there seemed to be a weight on his eyelids, and no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't open them.

"Don't move, you've got a lot of internal injuries. As he spoke, the owner of the voice patted Allen's upward back, and the pain appeared instantly, allowing Alan to understand that what he said was true.

"Why am I hurt?" the question puzzled Allen, but then he remembered what had happened to him, the strange sounds, the endless black mist, and the faint roar in the coma, all proving that something terrible had happened to him.

"Hell, what's going on?"

He cursed secretly.

As the horse jolted, he was almost conscious, but the pervasive pain in his body made him want to pass out again. However, this state did not last long, and as soon as he was able to use his fingers, he immediately released himself with a minor treatment.

The warm white light crept into the body along the surface of the body, and the pain that emanated from the inside out was relieved a lot, but it still could not be eradicated like a stubborn disease.

The ability to treat minor injuries is not as light as its name, and the injuries suffered by the human body can basically be affected, but the injuries in the body no longer seem to be in the range of minor injuries, and there is no great effect at all if it is released once.

But fortunately, Eren can be released indefinitely.

One after another, milky white light bloomed on his body, and gradually, a layer of white fluorescence enveloped his whole body, and at this time, Jacob was carrying him, and he could see this abnormality when he lowered his head slightly.

"Your spells are so handy. Seeing that Alan was already able to move a lot under the white light, Jacob said with envy.

"The power of the apocalypse is not bad, either. Alan muttered in response, and he struggled to look up and look around, and found that they were walking on a forest path at this time, a little familiar, as if they had met a group of adventurers here?

"Are we going back to Samuel?" he asked instead, using the teleportation technique, because it would make his voice much clearer.

"That's right," Jacob said, "but it turned out to be good, and Graves looked injured and now unconscious, but it didn't look like his life was in danger." ”

"I don't think he's just getting hurt. Remembering the pair of dark eyes he saw before he fell unconscious, Alan felt a little palpitating.

He didn't know much about the specifics, but those eyes made a deep impression on him, so he added, "You'd better be careful, he...."

He stopped abruptly before he finished speaking, and Jacob frowned, "What's wrong with him?"

"I'll be talking to you later. Alan, who was lying on horseback, responded absentmindedly, his head bowed, so that people could not see his expression clearly.

As the horse jolted, his body swayed with it, but in the corner where no one noticed, his eyes were fixed on his left wrist, which was now filled with a thick black!

Black is as pure as ink, and it doesn't flicker at the six corners of the six-pointed star, it just exists quietly. There was also no trembling, which is why Eren didn't notice it immediately when he woke up.

"This is..."The situation was a bit familiar, and Alan was at a loss.

"What's going on again? Why is this black bounty on the six-pointed star?"

The last time he faced this situation, he was completely confused, and it was only after a series of encounters that he began to wonder if it was a black gift that appeared from the hexagram absorbing foreign power.

How did it come about this time?

Thinking of some vague impressions that he had faintly felt before, Alan thought thoughtfully.

"Someone is doing something to me again?"

Thinking of this, he hurriedly checked his body, but he didn't find anything special, not even the spots that appeared last time, which made him even more puzzled: "What the hell is going on?"

No one answered him, and in the end, Alan could only suppress the question for the time being.

Although the hexagram had been fully charged at this time, Alan did not choose to turn it on immediately, because he was in a hurry now, and it was difficult for him not to be affected by the bumps, although no one could detect it except him after the gift appeared, but the influence of the outside world still existed.

"Did you notice anything unusual?" Constantly unleashing healing techniques on himself, although it could not cure the pain in his body, it no longer affected his movements, and Alan was thus freed from Jacob's care and mounted his own horse.

"There's nothing out of the ordinary, except that you're in a coma. Jacob looked at him suspiciously: "How did you pass out?"

"I said because of him, do you believe it?" Alan pointed to the Bachelor behind Jacob.

The coma of the university scholar is even more serious than Allen, maybe he is too old to toss, or it may be that the injuries he suffered are much stronger than Allen, in short, Allen woke up for a long time, and he didn't see him move at all.

"I'm tempted to say I don't believe it, but it doesn't seem like there's anything else possible. ”

"Who is that idol? do you know?" said Allen, changing the subject.

"I don't know, there are no documents left in the era of trolls, so we don't know anything about their former civilization. ”

“......”

Talking incessantly, they silently hurried on their way, and finally came to a halt on a high slope.

At this time, it was dark, but it was not far from Samuel, if you had been in a hurry, you would have been able to reach Samuel in the second half of the night, but it was impossible for Samuel to be open at that time, Jacob calculated the time, and finally stopped here.

Anyway, this operation has basically achieved its goal, and the rest can only wait for the scholar to wake up.

It's just that when the scholar will wake up, no one is sure.

Eren tried to cast a healing spell on him, but as soon as the light of the spell touched him, it was reflected by a strange magic - it can only be said that Eren used healing instead of attacking, otherwise he would have suffered a little under this sudden rebound.

"He had to wake up on his own. ”

Alan shook his head, though curious about how the self-bouncing magic of the scholar worked, he was even more curious about the fact that he was drawing the black bounty.

"Last time, it was that kind of ever-changing aura, I don't know what it will be this time?" he secretly looked forward to, leaning against the pile of camps, glancing at the crowd around the campfire, and then closed his eyes as if he were sleeping.

Gift extraction does not require him to actually open his eyes, and he can actually "see" clearly when he closes his eyes, so his behavior does not affect anything at all.

The black color detached from the six-pointed star like smoke, and strangely turned into six lines, which Alan had never seen before, but could clearly understand the meaning!

【Venom of Phoenix】

[Phoenix's Cunning]

【Phoenix's Winding】

【Shadow of Phoenix】

【Phoenix's Concealment】

【Phoenix's Fury】

The six lines of tadpole writing floated silently for a moment, then entangled and condensed with each other, turning into a black sphere.

Like last time, this time there was no way to let Alan choose independently, he was already a little mentally prepared for this, so he didn't hesitate much, he went deep into it, and directly came to a random selection.

The ball was agitated, and a special touch continued to come from his hand, and finally, the rest of the black dissipated, and a line of tadpole words remained in his hand like a snake, and turned into black mist and pounced on Allen.

Experienced it once, so he didn't hide from anything, with the black mist instilled, the words [Phoenix's cunning] faintly came to mind, this name made Alan a little confused, but he didn't wait to taste it carefully, a strange voice appeared in his ears in vain.

"Hello, little thing. ”

He hurriedly opened his eyes, but what he saw was an empty space and no one.

"Who's talking!?"

"I'm below you, little thing!" the slightly arrogant voice reappeared, but Alan looked down and saw a snake!
