An arcane guardian stepped forward and stripped off his leather armor and tunics, revealing bronzed skin and muscular muscles. A little red light lit up in the depths of his hazel eyes, which expanded rapidly, and soon invaded his eyes, the green tendons of his whole body burst out, the swollen muscles lingered with a sense of strength like substance, and the bronzed skin gradually reddened, and the momentum of the whole person looked extremely fierce.

Victor suddenly stood up from the couch, having heard the Mercury Agents and Alchemy Militia describe the Blood Guardians and Shadow Warriors of the Kamen Brotherhood. The real Blood Guard, he saw it with his own eyes for the first time, and he was still alive.

The other highnesses were surprised and curious at most when they saw this scene, but Victor was able to spy on the bloodline changes of the blood guard through the insight talent, and deduce the bloodline forging method of the bloodthirsty talent.

Such an opportunity is precious.

Victor stepped forward quickly, quietly bringing the Blood Guard of the Barcelius family into the blind area that had reached 4.3 meters, his face showing just the right amount of surprise, his eyes blazing, and amazement.

Randall's performance did not arouse Oroxia's suspicions, and she was secretly complacent, introducing, "The Shadow Priest Organization has many achievements, including the Blood Boiling Potion. Of course, the Shadow Priest, who invented the Boiling Blood Elixir, hid from the Inquisition and handed over the recipe to the High Lord of the Borui Kingdom. They also spread the blood boiling potion to the kingdoms through the Borui people. ”

"I'm afraid Lord Borui didn't think that the Boiling Blood Elixir was just the beginning of the Shadow Priest's escape from the slavery of the Inquisition. ”

Oroxia paused, then continued, "We also found the Blood Boiling Elixir to work very well, and were about to negotiate with Borui about purchasing the potion formula, when Shadow Priest approached us. Not only did they provide the recipe for the Blood Boiling Elixir, but they also came up with a Blood Guardian with a bloodthirsty talent. ”

"It turns out that the Boiling Blood Elixir is just a simplified Boiling Blood Potion. Warriors with excellent physical fitness can master bloodthirsty abilities by taking bloodthirsty potions, and then take some special means to master bloodthirsty abilities and become extraordinary - blood guards. ”

"Potions?"

Victor was distracted, and while gaining insight into the laws of the Blood Guard's internal movements, he eagerly asked, "The Barcelius family is sure that the Shadow Priest has recreated the potions of the Chosen Era?"

"Hmm. Oroxia nodded and said, "Isn't the truth right in front of you?"

With that, she raised her hand to stop the Blood Guard from continuing to remain bloodthirsty. The Blood Guard took a few deep breaths, the blood in his eyes quickly dimmed, and his skin and muscles gradually returned to normal, he picked up the clothes on the ground, put them back on, and silently stepped aside.

Victor quietly returned to the couch, and after a moment of silence, he spoke: "The Shadow Priest planned this war to make more lords aware of the importance of the Blood Boiling Elixir, and then launched the Blood Guardian in due time, so as to win the support of the worldly forces, so as to come to the front of the stage from behind the scenes. They chose the Barcelius family to work with?"

Oroksia gave him a deep look and said, "I now believe that something has gone wrong in the Giant Wood Forest...... The Shadow Priest also chose the Kingdom of Gombis as a partner to work with. They made it a condition to exchange the method of boiling blood potion for us a way to meet with His Highness Randall. ”

"It's impossible for us to agree to formally intervene for you and the Shadow Priest to have a meeting within the Barcelius family, which would be tantamount to choosing to support the Shadow Priest against the Inquisition. We don't know what Gombis's attitude is to this, and if it gets too involved, it will fall into your hands. ”

"But we are really reluctant to give up the cultivation methods of the Boiling Blood Potion and the Blood Guard, so we have adopted a compromise countermeasure and informed the Shadow Council of His Highness Randall's whereabouts and let them talk to you themselves. ”

"Actually, the Shadow Priests can find you on their own, they just need an attitude from the Barcelius family to support them. There is a precedent for the Barcelius family, and presumably His Highness Randall will be more receptive to their proposal. ”

"We're only willing to provide vague information, and the Shadow Priest is certainly not satisfied. Regarding the cooperation of the Blood Guards, they deliberately put up many obstacles for us. ”

Speaking of this, Oroxia sighed slightly, quite regretful. The Barcelius family has initially mastered the cultivation method of the Blood Guard, but the higher-end Shadow Warrior plan has completely died. First, the Shadow Warriors need to use the Paladin Crystal, and second, the Shadow Priests who tried to stand on their own feet may have been purged by the Inquisition. In the future, even if there is a shadow warrior, it will be the shadow warrior of the Radiant Knights.

She cleaned up her mood and said with a smile: "Cousin Victor, I have said everything I should say, the Barcelius family has shown their sincerity. Well, in the Giant Wood Forest......"

Victor waved his hand and said with a playful smile, "Even if the Shadow Priest has a way to find me, it is a fact that you have revealed my whereabouts. Are you sure you want to know what's going on in the Giant Wood Forest?"

"Okay!" Orokthea nodded very simply, got up gracefully, and said solemnly: "Your Highness, this matter has been revealed, is it okay?"

During this meeting, Orooksia said a lot of secrets, and could not express two meanings. First, the Shadow Priests are devout members of the El Cult who consider themselves clergy and will not violate the rules of the Radiant Code to murder a legendary guardian of humanity. As for whether this was the case, the Barcelius family only revealed Victor's whereabouts to the Shadow Priest based on their own judgment, but they did not attempt to harm Victor. Second, the Barcelius family only had an exchange of interests with the Shadow Priest, and they were not prepared to help the Shadow Priest fight against the Inquisition, let alone a master-slave relationship.

In short, whatever Victor encounters in the Giant Wood Forest has nothing to do with the Barcelius family.

The reason given by Oroksia was very reluctant, even a scoundrel. But if this matter is not revealed, there is no need to talk about the cooperation in the future.

The most important thing is that the Barcelius family is now fighting against the theocracy of the church, and Victor, as the secular lord, is it really appropriate to trouble them at this time?

Victor thought for a while, frowned and shook his head: "What you said is secret, I can't verify it for the time being. As for the sincerity of the Baselius family...... How do I know that this so-called 'Blood Guard' is not a wizard of House Barcelius?"

Orokthea followed Victor's gaze to the other arcane guardian and bowed his head slightly.

The arcane guardian stepped forward, took off his armor, and demonstrated his bloodlust abilities. Victor took the opportunity to get up and circle around the arcane guards, looking curiously and amazed.

This time the insight was more nuanced and deeper, and the surging air currents surrounded the Blood Guard, and Victor's eyes were dark and golden, shining brightly.

Seeing this, Oroccia frowned and snorted coldly, "Enough......!

The Blood Guard forcibly interrupted the bloodthirsty state that had just been adjusted, his legs and feet went limp, and he walked to the back weakly.

was recognized, what is the legendary knight...... Victor returned to his seat as if nothing had happened, and Oroxia was looking at him with a smirk.

Under normal conditions, insight can only observe the coordinated operation of the Blood Guard's internal latent and external forces. While walking in the Void, Victor was able to gain insight into the target's elemental workings, but that had no effect on the Bloodthirsty talent. With the coordinated operation of internal and external forces alone, Victor is not enough to directly grasp the mystery of bloodthirsty talent, and also needs to deduce it in combination with the theory of the secret method of the soul and bloodline.

Victor referred to the alchemy soldier's talent for active adaptation, and worked with Master Tofowen for a long time before he got out the root talent of the mind warrior. The gap between passive and active talents is the watershed for Psychic warriors to move from low-level to mid-level, and only those who take this step are called transcendentals.

It's difficult, and it's not without precedent. Turnans can simulate bloodline talents such as bloodthirsty, berserk, and madness, the throat cutter killed by Victor has developed his own vibrational combat skills, which can be regarded as half-finished active talents, and the berserk guards trained by Toferwen have the ability to go berserk on their own, but their IQ is limited compared to that of the bear goblins.

The bloodthirsty talent of the Blood Guardian can be said to be the most classic case.

It's a pity that Orokshia didn't give Victor more time to observe. He only has a general direction for his bloodthirsty talent.

It is better to have a harvest than no gain, and Victor can expand the number of experimenters and design a bloodthirsty talent forging method.

Of course, there will be victims in doing so, but the point is that the active bloodthirsty talent may be related to the source power envisioned by Victor. This can't tolerate moral cleanliness, not to mention that Victor's own two life experiences are experiments, so it's a big deal to select a group of death row inmates to participate in the source force test.

Orokxia, not knowing what was going on in Victor's mind, smiled confidently, "The Shadow Priest did something earth-shattering without the knowledge of the Inquisition, single-handedly destroying the Centaur Khanate. Terstir only doubted that Trigovar would take the place of the First Paladin Family, and the first thing Howard did to promote to Legend was to settle accounts with Trigoval. I think the Inquisition was ordered by Tystiel to purge the Shadow Priests of the Rebels and the Shadow Council wizards. Trigoval used this to show Téstiel his heart. ”

"The Shadow Priest who connected with our Barcelius family should be finished, but we got what we wanted. Those Shadow Priests may have wanted to use the Blood Guardian's cultivation method in exchange for the support of Gambis, but this is not possible now. ”

Victor took a moment to ask, "What does the Barcelius family want from me?"

"Cooperation. Oroxia raised her voice slightly, neither eagerly nor sluggishly, and said, "You can't get bloodthirsty potions and blood guardian cultivation methods from the hands of the Radiant Knights. I am willing to provide these technologies to Gombis...... However, the Kite Keep had to exchange the training methods of the Arcane Guardians, and the two sides cooperated in the bloodthirsty potion and the Blood Guard. ”

Orokthea took a fancy to the alchemy militia, thinking that they were arcane guardians cultivated by the Kite Castle. Despite Tofowen's low profile, the reputation of the Kite Castle Pharmacy spread throughout the kingdoms. Who in the major families didn't know that the Kite Castle secretly raised wizards, and the arcane guards and potions they cultivated were so good.

Victor replied in a modest manner: "Regarding cooperation, we will contact you when I return to Gambis." ”

"As it should be. Orooksia nodded in satisfaction and asked, "So...... Is the misunderstanding in the Giant Wood Forest revealed?"

Victor smiled: "It has nothing to do with the Barcelius family in the first place. ”

“...... That's good. Oroxia clapped her hands and said with a smile, "We don't expect Cousin Victor and Sylvia to publicly support the Barcelius family, but I want Gombis to remain neutral." ”

The neutrality of the Swordmaster of Fury and the Spirit Knight is the greatest support for the Barcelius family, and no one would think that these two highnesses will stand on the side of the theocracy of the Church. And the Barcelius family obviously didn't intend to meet with the church bayonets, Victor and Sylvia really supported them, and it was difficult for Barcelius to retreat.

Victor nodded appreciatively, and asked with a straight face, "Is Barcelius really ready for a showdown with the Knights of Radiance?"

"I don't want to ...... Not at all. Orokxiaa shook her head and said with a wry smile: "The Sassan Empire is now dominated by a leader, and if Barcelius does nothing, he will only lose his supporters." ”

Victor was silent for a moment, and then suddenly asked, "I'm curious, why didn't the Shadow Priest come to me directly, but through the channels of the Barcelius family?"

Oroxia blinked her eyes and asked with a puzzled expression, "What does Cousin Victor want to say?"

Victor said with a deep gaze: "You said earlier that the Pope's line once controlled the Pantheon, and the Pantheon was the predecessor of the Shadow Priest...... So is the rebel in the Shadow Priest a strong support in the church Nakhtigar?"

Orokthea nodded, "It won't be the Knights of Radiance and the Inquisition anyway...... Both the Bright Guards of Nakhtigar and the Cardinal are suspicious. I also think Nakhtigarh is the most likely, given that there are many bishops in the College of Cardinals who are loyal to the Knights of Radiance. ”

Victor said with an indifferent expression: "Nachtigarh has a holiday with the August family, if he is the backer of the Shadow Priest, the rebels of the Shadow Priest really dare not contact me directly. ”

"Nakhtigarh and Pastor Shadow are not necessarily in a master-slave relationship. ”

"How?"

Oroxia chuckled, "If you were Nakhtigar, would you let the Shadow Priest come to the forefront?"

"Of course not. Victor replied without hesitation. The leaders of either side do not want to see new political forces emerging.

"If Nakhtigar is behind the Shadow Priests, they have nothing to gain in this war, and Nakhtigar himself has even given up chasing down the lone centaur Great Khan. None of this makes sense, does it?"

Victor was silent for a moment, then nodded in agreement with Oroxia's judgment. By all indications, Nakhtigarh did not have a deep relationship with the Shadow Priest. Suppose Nakhtigar suspects that the Shadow Priest has set up a scheme to trick him into Victor and Roland's side under the bait of killing the Centaur Great Khan, then it makes sense that he would give up his divine grace and prestige and choose to retreat.

It all comes down to a lack of trust.

Victor clenched his fist and clubbed his forehead, hesitated for a long time, and finally asked, "It is said that the legendary knight can sense the fall of the Golden Knight through the elemental sea...... Your Highness, you are a Legendary-level Knight of the Raging Waves...... Roland, has she really fallen?"

Oroxia looked at Victor, her eyes were deep, she was silent for a while, she stood up and walked towards the door, and said without looking back: "Your question is too reckless, if you want to ask, you should also go to Sylvia." ”

The Legendary Knight of the Raging Waves left the lounge with the Arcane Guard, and Victor couldn't help but sigh.

Sylvia must have gone to the savannah, and showed her power beyond the Sanctuary, disturbing the water elemental sea, obscuring the moonlight, and allowing the freezing rain to fall early.

Compared to a golden-rank female knight of the Angry Waves, the Water Elemental Sea reacted to Sylvia so strongly that Orokshia couldn't sense if Roland had fallen.
