Chapter 44: Sunset Town-Land-Bloodthorn
"Troll Sacrifice?"
Jon's face changed, and he couldn't help but blurt out.
"It's not certain yet, but there's definitely a troll squad coming in!"
Frowning and glancing at the ordinary mercenary behind him, he found that the other party did not show horror or fear, Kelreth nodded with satisfaction, and took out a thick wooden spear nearly three meters long from the space ring, the spearhead was pure red, although I don't know what kind of pigment it was dyed, but every time the middle-level mage saw it, he had the illusion that it was infected with blood, and the remaining spear body patterns were engraved with a lot of patterns, but it looked like just a look.
Carefully taking the spear, Jon glanced at Kelrith in shock, although this spear looks wooden, but the moment the middle-level warrior holds it, he senses the specific weight, it should be about eighty pounds, even the middle-level berserk has a feeling of heaviness when he holds it with one hand, and Kelrith, as a mage, didn't have a trace of difficulty on his face just now when he held it with both hands.
Immediately seeing Kyris looking at him with a smile, Jon pulled the corners of his mouth, came back to his senses, and focused his eyes on the spear in his hand, and was also attracted by the scarlet spearhead for the first time, and after looking at it for a long time, he looked at the lines on the spear again, and then waved it left and right with one hand a few times, and the anger on his body poured into the spear at the same time, but it didn't seem to have any effect.
"Mountain!"
Jon looked back at the strong man behind him and handed the spear over.
"Look at it!"
The strong man skillfully took the spear, easily turned it upside down, and then carefully looked at the lines of the spear body, but only glanced at the blood-red spearhead.
It took more than ten minutes for the strong man to retract his scanning gaze, grab the spear with one hand, and after taking a few steps back, a sharp sudden, the spear in his right hand instantly turned into a black line, and instantly crossed an oak tree at the edge of the clearing, leaving a terrifying hole in the tree, and nailed to an oak tree behind.
After throwing out the spear, the strong man's breath was obviously paused, and his face became more and more pale.
One of the members of the Rock Squad consciously ran into the woods, and after a while ran with a spear on his shoulder, but by the time they got to Kelryth, the strong man was too weak to sit.
"Head, it's indeed a bloodthorn spear!" the frail brawny man who needed help to get up whispered to Jon.
With a slightly cold face, the mercenary captain took the spear in both hands, nodded at the strong man, and walked up to Kelrith and said.
"My lord, this is probably the Bloodthorn Hunter of the Trolls who wields the Bloodthorn Spear. ”
"What about him?"
The middle-level mage looked at the strong man and wondered, the spear shot just now was already quite powerful, especially in terms of speed, almost breaking through Kelris's mental power perception.
"My lord, with my current strength, if I shoot at most, I will fall into a period of weakness for three or four days. In the face of Kyleus's question, Jon did not answer, but looked at the weak and strong man behind him, and the other party also consciously took over the conversation and explained to the intermediate mage.
"Is this a special projectile, or is it because of the spear itself?" asked, as the mid-level mage looked at the Bloodthorn Spear.
"Both, the spear is a more common weapon for the trolls of Zumashal, after so many years of encirclement and suppression, the secret techniques used by the trolls for the spear have been discovered by our humans, but this secret technique not only has high requirements for the spear, but only the spear made by the troll is barely up to standard..."
After a few words in a row, the strong man began to sit on the ground panting again.
The middle-level mage frowned slightly, took out a dead wood puppet, stuffed it into an oak tree, and summoned a huge puppet three meters high, and the oak puppet walked in front of the strong man, sat cross-legged, and held the strong man with both hands.
With a stiff face, he was held in the arms of the deadwood puppet, and he was stunned for a long time before the strong man came back to his senses, looked at Kyris gratefully, and continued.
"And this set of secret techniques is purely based on physical consumption, not suitable for humans at all, even if a third-order warrior throws an ordinary spear two or three times at most, he will be exhausted and completely lose his combat power, and the effect of throwing is always much worse than when the troll throws it. ”
"Is it a normal spear, so what's so special about this Bloodthorn Spear?" asked Kelses, touching the carvings on the Bloodthorn Spear.
"The Bloodthorn Spear is the elite of Zumashal Trolls, the standard weapon of the Bloodthorn Hunter, in addition to the higher hardness and weight, the spearhead is actually smeared with the blood of a bloodsucking worm, as long as it touches the blood, it will spontaneously suck and refine and assimilate, which is the same as the head of the Bloodthorn Spear should have only a little bit of red..."
After a pause, the strong man spread out his right hand, and the palm of his hand was blood-red, and continued.
"As for the pattern on the spear, we still haven't figured out how it works, but we know that when you throw this spear with the Troll Throwing Secret Technique, if you don't have enough stamina to support the entire throw, the spear will automatically suck the blood of the thrower. ”
"Is it a power system completely built on the terrifying constitution of trolls?"
Glancing at the palm of the other's hand, Kelrith muttered to himself, as supernatural creatures with an average height of three meters away, the constitution of trolls has always been their greatest strength, and Kelrith even suspected that the rank system he had established with human data was not suitable for trolls at all.
"So, do you know this thing?"
The mid-level mage stretched out his hand, and a 3D image appeared on the palm of his hand, which was a rough cylindrical stone, and there were many patterns engraved on the stone, although it was confused, but it could vaguely be seen that dragon eagles, giant bears, lynxes and other beasts could be seen.
The stone had been discovered by the townsman Uther earlier.
He was not originally a member of the outcasts, but had been displaced after the town was established, so he was not very familiar with the people in the town, and the houses were built in the middle of nowhere, almost next to the oak forest.
Although he looks thinner, but his body is not bad, Uther has lived by hunting after he has lived, and on the way to chase a deer, he found this clearing and the stone totem in the center of the clearing, although he didn't understand what it was, but he felt a little weird and finally told old Louis about the situation, this time it was the seventh day that Kelrith came to Sunset Town, and Louis, who had become his butler, was also keenly aware of the unusualness, and then told Kelrith.
And it was really because of the appearance of this totem that the mid-level mage had to recruit the Rock Squad to assist.
"My lord, although I have heard of the existence of the Troll Sacrifice, I have only heard of it..."The strong man stared at the totem for a long time before shaking his head and said.
"My lord, troll sacrifices rarely appear outside Zumashal, and this may just be a simple sacrificial act!" Jon watched as the strong man observed the image, and then explained.
"Let's hope..."
Frowning and looking at the oak tree that had been pierced by the spear through a big hole, Kelreth said lightly, after speaking, put away the spear, and the dead wood puppet led the immobile strong man, and slowly walked back to Sunset Town in a group, and finally stopped in front of his three-story "old mansion".
Giving Jon a look, Kyris walked in with Kiel, and behind him, the mercenary captain gave a few commands to the two mercenaries behind him, keeping up with the pace of the two.
And in the oak forest, not far from the clearing, with the distance of the people of Kelris, an exceptionally thick branch of an oak tree suddenly moved, a slender figure jumped down, after landing on the ground, his legs were slightly bent, bent forward, the original height of three meters, the two shrank to more than two meters, the figure looked around, turned his head, and ran up in the oak forest, but after running for more than twenty minutes, he came to the same clearing.
The clearing was much larger than what Kelreth had found, and it was also very clean, but in the center stood a five-meter-high stone totem, surrounded by a dozen green-skinned trolls in the distance, all staring at the only troll in cloth sitting next to the totem.
"Elder, those humans are gone again!"
When the figure arrived in the clearing, it was also a green-skinned troll, slowing down when it entered the clearing, and finally stopped next to the group of trolls on the periphery, prostrate on the ground.
"I see. ”
The troll elder opened his eyes, touched the totem pole beside him, and said hoarsely.
"Winter is coming, my chance..."
