Chapter 34: The Arrow and the Weakness
Go back to your room.
I closed the door and didn't come back for a few days, and a fine layer of dust fell on the tables and chairs.
After a brief wipe with a towel, Ron sat down at the table and took out a bunch of loose things from his waist and placed them on top.
A bulging black money bag, a black arrowhead, a small and delicate carving knife, and a few silver marbles of unknown use.
He looked at the things that were placed in order, and first picked up a silver marble and looked at it.
The marbles were hard, as if they were some kind of metal, each the size of a fingernail, and when they were rubbed gently, some tiny red powder fell from them.
"Huh?" Ron was slightly stunned when he saw what had fallen on the table. "And the coating?poison?"
He cautiously put down the marbles and looked at his fingers, which were also stained with some powder.
I put it on the tip of my nose and smelled it, and there was a faint fishy smell, as if it was the smell of blood.
"It doesn't seem to be poison, is it a secret weapon?" Ron frowned. "Strange stuff. ”
Unable to figure out what the marbles were for a moment, he turned his gaze to the purse.
After opening, in addition to a few gold coins, there was actually a wooden statue and a black sign outside.
The statue does not look finished, only the upper part of the person is carved.
Ron could see that it was a woman, with long shawl hair, tight leather armor, and a smile on her face that still had a cold feeling.
"Huh, isn't this the woman named Penny from before? I said how familiar it was. He blinked. "Could it be that the man has a crush on this woman?"
Thinking of the man's anger at the time, I thought that this speculation might be true.
Shaking his head and putting the statue down, Ron picked up the black plaque, which clearly carved a black bird, and on the back was a series of unknown symbols.
Suddenly, he remembered something and pulled out another wooden sign from his waist.
After a little comparison, Ron found that the two wooden signs were the same except for the different text symbols on the back.
"Is it the logo of the organization, the Black Bird?" he said, playing with two wooden cards, thoughtful. "Maybe I can figure out what kind of organization this is. ”
After putting the two wooden cards away, Ron skimmed over the carving knife and looked at the black arrow at the end.
There is nothing special about the bare arrowheads, and there are still some signs of wear and tear on the three sides of the bloodletting, but the black coating is a little strange.
After thinking about it, he picked up the carving knife next to him and gently scraped the coating on the outside of the arrow.
'Hiss'
In the subtle sound, the place where the arrow was scraped revealed its essential metallic luster, and a thin curved line above it was also exposed to Ron's vision.
"Huh?"
Seeing the appearance of the lines, Ron scratched a few more times in a row, and suddenly the black coating on the arrows faded.
Only then did he realize that the entire arrow was densely covered with such curved lines.
"What the hell is this?" Ron wondered.
These dense lines seem to have no rules, like a child's essay, but he feels that it is not so simple.
After all, who would have the heart to draw so many lines on an ordinary arrow, and also cover it with something.
With a deep groan, Ron carefully picked up the arrow, thinking about it when he took a closer look.
Suddenly, a warm sensation came from the finger holding the arrow, and in a few moments it turned into a blazing burn.
This made him throw it away quickly.
'Bang!'
'Hiss'
The arrow fell on the tabletop, and suddenly a wisp of green smoke came out, and it actually left a black mark on the tabletop, like a soldering iron.
"This is!?"
Seeing the marks on the table, Ron's eyes widened and he felt incredible.
However, the burning heat on the arrow only lasted for a short moment, and then it returned to its original state, except that the clear curved lines on it faintly faded.
Remembering the strange situation just now, Ron carefully touched the arrow with his carving knife, but there was no reaction.
However, when he touched it with his hand, the heat flow above appeared at a rapid speed.
"It seems that this thing only reacts to the flesh, so it's no wonder that it needs to be coated, otherwise it will hurt itself if you are not careful. ”
Guessing in his heart, Ron took out a piece of cloth to wrap the arrowhead, and when he picked it up again, he couldn't feel the heat anymore.
"This arrow dissipates heat very quickly and the temperature is high, if it hits someone, it is even stronger than ordinary poisoned arrows, my archery skills are not very good, but it can be used as a hidden weapon. ”
He vaguely felt that if he was shot by this kind of arrow, he would not be able to bear it even if he had super resilience.
Aside from the dual-sword skills that have been hidden, Ron can use this thing as a powerful hole card.
Playing with the isolated arrows, Ron's eyes showed a complicated look.
"This is the mysterious power of this world, and it is really amazing. ”
He didn't know about these magical things, and other people didn't know about them, but they were all very new things to him.
Thinking of this, Ron put away those marbles as well, since an arrow is so powerful, these things may also have an unknown magical effect.
Perhaps because of his excitement, his chest tightened, and he coughed unconsciously.
"Ahem"
Although I didn't vomit blood this time, I still felt a little uncomfortable in my body.
Covering his chest, Ron looked at the attributes under his eyes.
'Attributes: Strength 2.2 (1.4), Agility 2.0 (1.6), Constitution 2.2 (0.7), Intelligence 1.4. Condition: Weak. ’
"Oh, my fitness has increased again, but," he frowned. "The physique of 0.7 has declined so badly, it seems that this injury is really not light, I don't know how many days it will take to fully recover. ”
It was the weakest he'd ever been.
If Nick comes to trouble him at this time, he can't avoid it.
So, what worries Ron the most at the moment is the weird big bird, and he doesn't know if the bird has revealed his identity to the remaining two.
If it is revealed, it may be annoying.
