Chapter 81: Test 2

Suddenly, Ron remembered the identification information that Slug had said.

According to Slug, the Witch's Blood has developed a connection to him, and it is this connection that has caused him to be involved in various events of bad luck.

But from now on, it seems that this connection also allowed him to acquire the special ability of the Witch's Blood.

"If it's really because of my connection to the witch's blood," Ron looked up at the woman who was almost close to him, his thoughts wandering, and he faintly grasped some important information. "So, is this woman the blood of a witch?"

He lowered his head again, his eyes looking at the dense red thread connected to this woman on his body.

These red lines reflected the hues of the scarlet grassland, and there was a hazy sense of flickering light and darkness, and if he hadn't seen it by chance, he might not have found it by now.

"Since the effect on my body is all because of this woman, what is the nature of this thing for me?and, what is the state of the other people who have obtained the blood of this witch, and will they all die like that girl in the end?"

As a sacred relic of the ancient empire of Stent thousands of years ago, the background of the Witch's Blood must be more than that.

However, although the empire was very powerful, it was too short-lived, and there was no trace of ordinary historical records at all, and with Ron's current status, he did not have the ability to find out, so he still needed to ask Slug now, and could only hope that the appraiser who had served in the city guard had information that could be verified.

'Hiss'

As he pondered things, the familiar whisper sounded in his ears again, and Ron knew it was a prelude to getting out of the hallucination.

Sure enough, after a while, his vision began to become hazy.

When he came back to his senses again, he was still sitting upright in the chair, and Julia on the other side didn't know whether she was tired or afraid, and she fell asleep on the table half-ly.

Without deliberately alarming her, Ron just stared at the young woman calmly, and in his mind, a fragmented picture was rapidly reconstructing.

Some of these images are still and some are cinematic, but the protagonists of these images are Julia herself.

From these memories, Ron gradually understood the general story of Julia.

This woman was sold into the Black Knife Society as a slave since she was a child, but as she grew up, her bloodline ability awakened, and she gradually broke away from the status of a slave and became an official member of the Black Knife Society.

Usually wander around various taverns or lively areas.,Defraud money with the natural ability of the demon woman's bloodline.。

However, because of her previous slave status, her life in the Black Knife Society was not easy, and she would be punished in various ways if the charm failed, and of course, she was often bullied by the Black Knife Society.

It can be said that most of the memories of Julia in Ron's mind are images of being bullied in various ways.

After looking at the poor woman for a moment, Ron glanced under his neck.

The withered arm of the witch's blood was fully visible at this time for no reason, and it seemed to be plump again compared to the previous appearance.

A faint line of green tendons is clearly visible on the arm.

"At the moment, it seems that the seductive talent of the witch's blood can indeed stimulate and deepen the connection between me and the witch's blood, so that I can gain the ability to read the memories of others, but if I guess correctly, the bad luck that accompanies this ability will also be more serious."

Although reading memories seemed very powerful, Ron still had a feeling that the gains outweighed the losses.

You know, bad luck is such a thing, maybe it will kill him at any time.

"Maybe in the future, as the connection between the witch's blood and me deepens, I will gain more powerful abilities, but after all, these abilities are only because of the witch's blood, not my own strength, and there are serious sequelae, if I don't solve the accompanying bad luck, the witch's blood is just a life-threatening burden for me."

Ron carefully analyzed the pros and cons, and soon made a decision in his mind.

"For now, let's stay put, wait for Slug's message, or who knows what will happen. ”

As for Julia in front of her, she herself has the ability to seduce the blood of witches, and I don't know what role it will be in the future.

However, now that he knows the details of Julia, he is not afraid that she will disappear completely.

And, perhaps, because of her acquaintance with Ron, her life in the Black Knife Society might be better.

After all, Ron represents the City Guard behind him, and the relationship with an organization like the Black Knives is like that of a cat and a mouse.

With everything in front of him settled, Ron took one last look out the window at the already dark sky, then turned to leave the hotel......

Two months later.

Located on a small road outside the city of Soros, in the afternoon.

Under a slightly overcast sky, a group of cavalrymen in silver armor swept by.

There was a deafening sound of horses' hooves, kicking up large clouds of smoke and dust.

At the foreground was a young woman wearing a silver bust with a grim face.

She carried a very exaggerated silver knight's spear behind her back, and a heavy sword hanging from her waist, combined with her thin body, there was a feeling of disobedience.

The woman's face looked very gloomy, and she kept urging the horses under her to speed up, and the woods on either side were a little blurred because of the extreme speed.

Half an hour later.

As the team progressed, the surrounding woods grew thicker and denser, and the tall dark green trees seemed to obscure the sky from the path.

Running in this environment, there is a faint sense of depression.

As the procession passed through a fork in the path, a large black stone monument stood abruptly.

The stele is clearly engraved with several letters in the Cortic language, which means 'Andas Forbidden Forest'.

The team did not stop, and ran directly past the stone monument towards the forest.

After another ten minutes, the trail faded away, and in the distance, a gray-brown tent appeared in the team's field of vision, what appeared to be a camp.

Outside the camp is a thick fence surrounded by tree trunks, and two tall belvedere towers stand out on either side of the fence.

The cavalry team went directly through the fence gate and went inside.

Inside the camp stood dozens of soldiers in silver armor, seemingly waiting specifically for the arrival of the team.

As soon as the team entered the camp, a tall man at least two meters tall quickly greeted him.

The man was wearing a black full-body armor, two battle axes of the same black hanging from his waist, and his face without a helmet was covered with tiny scars, one of which even passed directly from his left eye, and his temperament looked very vicious.

When he saw the cold face of the woman at the head, the man immediately bowed solemnly and said loudly.

"Natalie-sama, you're finally here!"

Without waiting for the horse to come to a complete stop, Natalie simply rolled over and jumped down, waving her hand.

"Don't talk nonsense, Gru, tell me what the situation is, how many people are sacrificed in total?"

"Yes, my lord, we were suddenly attacked by three four-winged snake lizards in the camp this morning, ten brothers were killed on the spot by the acid of the snake lizard, and three were seriously injured because of the damage, and they were sent to the city for treatment at noon. ”

"Ten people" Natalie swept across the camp with a gloomy face, and there were obvious black-gray marks on some of the ground and buildings, and a faint sour smell emanated from there. "The four-winged snake lizard is a mutated creature with a strong sense of territory, and basically it will not leave its territory too far, why did it come to our camp?"

"My lord," Gru said in a slightly lowered voice. "Our men dissuaded a small group of Phantom Sword people the other day, I suspect it was them"

"Phantom Sword?" Natalie was stunned and looked up. "The poachers who often hunt for their own deaths? Do they have the guts??"

"According to the information we have received, the person in charge of the Phantom Sword had in-depth contact with the Rost Chamber of Commerce half a month ago, and it seems that he has completely attached himself to the Rost family. Gru said in a deep voice. "And, after the last time we dissuaded the Phantom Sword, they don't seem to know when they lurked in the Forbidden Forest again, and we spotted them on patrol last night, and they still have the slime and eggshells of snake lizard eggs. ”

As he spoke, he motioned to a soldier next to him, and soon, the soldier brought over a palm-sized piece of white eggshell.

Taking the eggshell, Natalie put it between her nose and sniffed it, frowning for a moment.

"It's the egg of the four-winged snake lizard, so the Phantom Sword has really joined the Rost family?"

Gru nodded in confirmation.

"Yes, I have already verified the information. ”

"The Rost family!, these guys who only know money!?" said Natalie, squeezing the egg in her hand into pieces, her voice unusually cold. "If you think you're the second largest family, you're really a decoration for our city guards!?or, for their own benefit, they want the entire city of Soros to be buried together??

"My lord, what are we going to do now!?" Gru said through gritted teeth. "Ten brothers can't just die in vain!"

"Don't worry, I'll give them an explanation!" Vitaly glanced at the remaining black-and-gray marks on the ground, then turned on her horse and asked Gru coldly. "I remember it's not far from one of Phantom Sword's strongholds, right!?"

"Yes, my lord," Gru was stunned for a moment, then saw Vitaly's face. "Do you want to?"

"That's right! Now that someone has forgotten the incident of forty years ago, I will let him remember it a little more deeply. Vitaly pulled out her sword from her waist with a thud. "And the city guard hasn't been trained in blood for a long time, and it just so happened that the Rost family gave me this opportunity!!"

Turning around, she raised the heavy sword in her hand and said loudly.

"Everyone, get ready to fight!

"Yes!"

Seeing the response, Vitaly pulled the reins of her horse and ran towards the outside of the camp first.

The rest followed.

Ron mingled in the group, his face unusually calm.

He also knows a lot about the entanglement between the city guard and the power of several major families in Soros City, even if there are big contradictions and no small contradictions, but this time the matter seems to have become too serious.

However, none of this had anything to do with him, and the reason why he came here was just because of Vitalie's orders.
