Chapter 262: The Price
A black shadow spread along the outer wall of the tavern, like a black creeper creeping creeping up the window on the second floor.
The shadow window slowly seeped into the room, the fire of the fireplace in the room was still burning, and the black shadow slowly swam along the crack in the corner of the wall to the side of the bed.
In the light of the fireplace, the blood-toothed marks on the eyebrows of the sleeping man lying on the bed were clearly visible.
The black shadow condensed into a sharp black thorn beside the bed, slowly approaching the sleeping figure, and after getting close to a completely unavoidable distance, the black thorn stabbed down on the bloody tooth mark aimed at the center of the eyebrows.
The black needle pierced through the center of the eyebrow, and without encountering any resistance, directly pinned the sleeping man to the bed.
The black shadow looked at the figure stabbed by the black needle and was a little stunned.
How is there no blood?
As soon as the thought came to mind, the room suddenly smelled of blood.
Holding the black stinger, the black shadow reacted suddenly, and the black shadow quickly retracted in the direction of the window.
The smell of blood in the room was even stronger.
The shadow followed the path it had come, leaving the room through the window, then leaving the tavern and fleeing into the depths of the night.
Until there was no light around the corner, a man dressed in black waited here, and the black shadow condensed into an emaciated figure.
"How's it going?" asked the man in black in a low voice.
"No, the other party has been prepared, I may have been discovered. The black shadow said with some surprise, the sudden smell of blood in the room made him feel creepy.
"You ......" The man in black was about to reprimand the black shadow, but suddenly a frightened expression appeared on his face.
"What's wrong?" the black shadow also shuddered, and he subconsciously turned around, but he didn't see the imaginary enemy, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.
I was almost taken aback.
When he looked at the man in black again, he found that the horror on the other party's face had turned into despair. Immediately afterward, he saw that the other party was holding a scarlet dagger in his hand, and stabbed it into his heart.
The black shadow was full of astonishment, as if he didn't know why the other party was doing this, he subconsciously tried to raise his hand to block, but found that he had the same scarlet dagger in his hand at some point.
The scarlet dagger dragged his raised right hand and stabbed the other man's heart as well.
Poof!
The sound of two daggers stabbing into their bodies came from the dark alley, and the two of them looked at the scarlet dagger in their chests in horror and despair.
It doesn't seem to know why it suddenly turned out to be like this.
The moment the scarlet dagger stabbed the heart, it suddenly trembled, and the force of violent shaking directly shook the two hearts into a pile of rotten minced meat.
A dark red mist floated out of the black alley and slowly drifted towards the room of the Shadow Moon Tavern.
After a long time, several figures shrouded in black robes quietly came to the dark alley.
"What's going on?" asked a black-robed man in a low voice.
The other black-robed man hesitated for a moment and said, "It looks like there was an internal strife, and then they all died together." ”
"Idiot. The black-robed man scolded.
"Take all the corpses with me. ”
"The Blood Sacrifice is about to begin, we must eradicate all the unstable factors, otherwise the Lord will not be able to spare you!"
The black-robed man hurried out of the alley with the corpse, leaving not even a trace of blood, leaving only an empty darkness.
The night passed quietly, and when the sun rose, the city of the Long Wind came alive again.
When Ron reached the hall, the tavernkeeper and the bard stared at him with wide eyes and doubtful eyes.
After Ron and Moses sat down, Ron suddenly said, "Two breakfasts." ”
"Go ahead and get ready. Kuta suddenly stood up and walked inside, for their physical strength, they would not even feel tired without sleeping at night, but the strange scene last night that they couldn't understand made them deeply puzzled, but they couldn't find any excuse to ask.
The bard hesitated for a moment, then shouted "Bring me breakfast too", and then came to Ron's table.
"I don't mind having one more person. ”
"Whatever you want. Ron leaned back in his chair a little lazily, as if his sleepiness hadn't gone away.
"The other day, I met a couple of young men who claimed to be from the Bloodfang Tribe, and they seemed to be looking for someone?" asked the bard tentatively.
"Well, I sent it out. Ron nodded a little noncommittally, but thought in his heart that he hadn't reported much hope in the first place, and those young people seemed to be quite attentive to a random thing.
"Who are those two people they are looking for?" the bard continued.
"Two friends. ”
Ron's tone was not salty or light, and the bard could not guess his thoughts at all, and after a moment, he said slowly, "I think I've seen one of them." ”
Ron paused, glancing at the bard, as if wondering if he was lying.
"In the Mountain of Blood!" the bard suddenly said something that surprised Ron.
"News about him, it may not be long before it reaches the Changfeng tribe. ”
"That person calls himself Blood Crow, his strength is very strong, and he has defeated several powerful Golden Scale Divine Envoys of the Blood Holy Mountain one after another with his mortal body, and even alarmed the His Highness above the Blood Holy Mountain, and was recruited into the Temple, I heard that he has become the fifth Nine-Scale Divine General of the Blood Holy Mountain!"
Ron's brows gradually furrowed, the other party should be the Grand Duke of Blood, he was not surprised that the Grand Duke of Blood was able to defeat the Golden Scale God, in fact, before Olina disappeared, the Grand Duke of Blood had already advanced to the third order of wizards, and with his strength, he was also considered strong in this world.
Ron is strange that he can accept the divine power to become a divine envoy, after inexplicably becoming the divine envoy of the Blood Fang tribe, Ron is already quite familiar with the divine power given by this Quetzalcoatl statue, this power is actually very domineering, from the time of those divine envoys, the residual divine power will be known from the new condensation of the silver scales of the gods, whether it is the Blood Fang Sain, or the Fire Devouring God Envoys, they seem to control the divine power, their bodies are actually dominated by these divine powers, not that they are dominating the divine power.
This is the price to pay for being an oracle in this world, above others.
If it weren't for the Void Egg that shocked the divine power in his body, Ron wouldn't have dared to absorb too much of this divine silver scale, lest he be seized of the control of his body by the divine power.
The strength of the Blood Grand Duke may be able to control the divine power of a few divine silver scales, but it is definitely not able to control the divine power of nine golden scales.
Ron didn't believe that the Blood Grand Duke kidnapped Olina in order to become a puppet of divine powers.
