"My name is Feiqi, and I am the patriarch of the Dragonscale Tribe, and we found you on the river beach while we were fetching water. You only had one breath left, and you didn't expect to survive. The old knight smiled and smeared herbs on him, and then said in surprise, "The wound heals so quickly, it seems that your fighting spirit is very high." ”

As we all know, the higher the level of a knight's fighting spirit, the stronger the physical recovery.

When Herman got up, the flesh and blood on his back were blurred, and the wound was deep and bone-seeing, and Feige thought that he would not survive, but he didn't expect that the wound had begun to scab over in just five days. Naturally, he didn't think it was because of the herbs he had picked.

"You're joking, my strength is not worth mentioning." Herman changed the subject and asked, "You say I've been in a coma for five days?" ”

Feiqi nodded: "Five whole days." ”

(It's not a long time, Hawkins and they are still in Mountain Flame City, it's too late.) However, I am not in a good state right now, and I am afraid that I will not be able to deal with those dark creatures when I am alone, and I don't know if there is a caravan to Mountain Flame City. ）

Remembering his previous experience of fighting those dark monsters, Herman didn't think that with his current body, he could go to Mountain Flame City intact.

The injuries to the back are only trivial, and even more serious are the internal organs that have been injured by the great force, and these areas recover very slowly.

"I just heard Hope say that this place is called Dark Crystal City, may I ask which hermit is ruling the city-state?" Herman asked cautiously.

Feige scooped him up from the Gloomy River, and by looking at his clothes, he knew that Herman was not from the neighborhood. Not surprised by this question, he replied after a moment of silence: "The name of Gloomy Crystal City was passed down by the adults who lived in the city on the top of the mountain, and the tribes under our mountain generally called this Black Dragon Mountain, and the legend is that it is because the city-state is blessed by the Black Dragon. ”

"Dragons?"

Herman felt strange, the dragon clan had been extinct on the continent for thousands of years, but he didn't expect that there were still dragons here.

Fei Qi stopped his movements and said with a solemn expression: "The dragon has a spirit, he has sheltered the city-state for thousands of years, he is a well-deserved master here, the Dragon Temple, as the servant of the dragon god, dominates the area of the three thousand miles of Dark Crystal City, and the coal and stone we illuminate must be exchanged for the mine controlled by the Dragon Temple." ”

"Temple?"

Fei Qi nodded: "The temple serves the dragon god who protects the city-state, and the priests have mastered the power of the dragon god, and my fighting spirit was learned in the temple, but unfortunately I was not talented enough to enter the dragon servant army, and I came back to protect the tribe after three years of cultivation in the temple." ”

Under the old knight's explanation, Herman gradually understood where he was.

This area is called Gloomy Crystal City, and the surrounding area is thousands of miles away from indigenous people who believe in dragon gods. The dragon god is the only belief here, and the people who control the city-state are the priests of the dragon temple and the dragon servants under the temple.

According to Feiqi's description, the priest is a wizard, and the dragon servant army is a knight, and the dragon servant army is maintained at about three hundred people all year round, and the strength is not weak.

As for the nearby city-state, the nearest one is also three thousand miles away, and it is a force called Djinn City.

As for Castlevania City and Mountain Flame City, Fei Qi didn't mention a word, obviously, it must be more than three thousand miles away from Dark Spirit City.

Herman suspected that he had been in the river for more than a day to end up in a place like Castlevania, which he had never heard of.

Although swimming up the river is the best option, teenagers who don't know how to swim naturally want to avoid any rivers and lakes.

"Patriarch, it's not good, Harry was attacked by the Winged Serpent when he came back, please go to the rescue immediately." A man from the Dragonscale Tribe barged in, flustered.

"Winged Serpent!"

Feiqi's expression changed, and he immediately put down the herbs and ran out in a hurry.

Herman turned his head to look at Hope, who was guarding the side, and asked, "Little one, is your grandfather already the strongest person in your family?" ”

Hope nodded proudly: "Yes, a lot of prey in the tribe was hunted by grandpa, and he even hunted a magical beast before!" But my dad was also a powerful knight, and my grandfather said he would be able to surpass him in a few years. ”

Herman smiled, "Your grandfather is amazing. ”

"Hey, hey."

Looking at Hope's proud expression, Herman didn't say much.

He was relieved to hear that the Dragonscale Tribe had at least two people close to the high-level vortex knights, although the winged snake was strong, it couldn't help the two high-level vortex knights. Or is it just a winged snake, this kind of monster has fleshy wings but can't fly, can't drill holes, can only live in the jungle, it's relatively easy to deal with, if it encounters thorns and black winds, even if it's him, the chance of escaping is not great.

After chatting with Hope for a while, it wasn't long before Herman heard the jumbled footsteps and cheerful talking.

(Seems to be solved.) The boy raised an eyebrow.

Then I saw Feiqi and a thin mid-level whirlpool knight walking in, although the two of them were slightly pale, but their faces couldn't stop rejoicing, behind them, a group of people carried a gray and white python corpse of about ten meters, and someone else carried a pair of pink meat wings, also with a happy face.

This surprised him a little, he thought it would be good for the two of them to get out of the way, but he didn't expect to be able to solve the winged snake.

"I can finally eat meat."

Hope cheered, and immediately gathered around, and the other children also had green eyes, and they gathered around the stinking snake without the slightest fear.

Feige waved the children away, and the body of the winged snake was taken down and disposed of.

When eating snake meat and drinking snake soup at night, the faces of the people of the dragon scale tribe rarely appeared, numbness and exhaustion were diluted, and the smile revealed a thick happiness.

Herman glanced at Feige and his son Harry, even if they were knights, they were also thin and weak, not to mention that compared to him, even the city defenses of Castlevania could not be compared, so they had a general understanding of the lives of ordinary people in the underworld.

For the next few days, he lived in the Dragonscale Tribe.

Feige did not inquire about his origins, nor did he intend to drive him away, and the rest of the people may have been instructed by Feige to treat Herman as a transparent person, and Herman was happy to recuperate from his injuries and take a good rest by the way.

Herman walked out of the cave and was faced with a clearing in front of it, surrounded by a high stone wall at the edge, which was effective against the attacks of fierce beasts and some low-level magical beasts, and also gave them time to react in the event of an enemy attack.

Everything was dim and blurry in the dim light, but the Feige father and son and some young men still practiced their martial arts skills in this environment.

Behind the cave is the Gloomy Crystal City, where the Dragon Temple is located. It was at the foot of the mountain, and Herman couldn't see the city, but he wondered if the flames of Gloomy City were a little too dim.

Since coming to the underworld, he has passed through five city-states, which, no matter how they set fire, must be able to see the road within a radius of ten miles from the city-state, and as for the volcano, everywhere should be as bright as day.

And here in Gloom Crystal City, he could only see a small flame on the top of the mountain, and the light could not cover the foot of the mountain at all, let alone ten miles away.

"There's something wrong with this city-state." Herman muttered.

Flames are extremely important in the dark world, and how far the flames can cover determines the area and population of this city-state, and a city-state like Gloom City, which cannot even be illuminated by the volcano itself, is doomed to perdition.

But what he didn't understand was why the wizards and knights of the Dragon Temple didn't take action?

"Big brother, what do you think of my grandfather and father compared to you?" Maybe it was because he had just eaten meat two days ago, and Hope was in a good mood, pestering Herman to ask this and that.

Herman looked at the serious wrestling appearance of the two Feiqi father and son in the dark, and said with a smile: "They must be amazing." ”

Hope was a little incredulous, and pouted, "But grandpa said you are very good." ”

Herman smiled, rubbed the little one's head, and said, "That's Grandpa Feige lifting me." If you think about it, aren't they better than me when they protect the whole tribe so that you can grow up healthy? Don't forget that I was rescued by Grandpa Feiqi! ”

Hope was proud, tilted his head high and said, "That seems to be the case." ”

"Sure—you have to work hard, to become a knight and protect your people."

"Uh-huh!"

Hope nodded vigorously, looking ahead with a look of longing.

At this time, the fight between Feige and his son also attracted Herman's attention, and he couldn't help but step forward and said with a smile: "Uncle Harry, are you interested in playing with two hands?" ”

The two stopped, and Harry hesitated, "You have injuries, can you do it?" ”

The young man smiled slightly: "It's okay. ”

Harry looked at Feige, and when he saw his father nodding, he had no worries, and put on a posture and said, "That's it." ”

"Please ask the uncle to do his best."

The gentleness in the young man's eyes disappeared, and the smile disappeared in an instant, and in an instant, the whole person rushed over like a cheetah.

Seeing this, Harry also lost his temper, and lowered his waist with his hands on his chest, and when Herman rushed into his arms, he grabbed Herman by the shoulder with one hand and his waist with the other, trying to throw Herman out and hold him to the ground.

But unexpectedly, even with all his might, Harry couldn't move Herman, and the other party's feet were as if they had roots.

Seeing this, Harry could only turn his grip into a palm, trying to push the boy away, and then punched.

Herman had just wanted Harry to know what he was capable of, and after giving him a dismissal, he stepped back.

Harry found an opportunity and threw a punch with all his might, but Herman did not dodge or dodge, and raised his hand to block his punch.

In the next second, the young man's eyes were shocked.

"This kid, bluffing!"

Herman's posture really scared him before, and Harry didn't want to be embarrassed in front of his people, so he punched with all his might, but seeing that the other party couldn't even dodge, he couldn't help but regret it. You must know that his punch contains a trace of "concussion" skills, and even his father doesn't dare to take it hard.

"Call you kid just made a lot of nonsense, and now you're suffering."

He estimated that Herman would at least break his arm if the punch continued.

Feige was also a little disappointed.

But just when Harry thought that Herman was going to roll on the ground in pain, he saw Herman retract his mind, put down his left arm with bared teeth, and hooked his right hand at him: "Go on." ”

Feige's eyes were immediately replaced by surprise, and Harry's face turned red, and he continued to attack without saying a word.

After a few more rounds like this, Herman was hit by an unknown number of punches, and each time he looked like he was dying of pain and was about to fall, but he persevered for a long time. It wasn't until more than ten minutes later that Harry's strength was exhausted, and Herman seized the opportunity to fall down directly, waving his hand and saying: "Admit defeat and admit defeat, you can't beat uncle." ”

The rest of the clan couldn't help but cheer for Harry, and Hope also ran to his father excitedly, looking proud.

(Big brother really didn't lie to me!) ）

But only Feige and Harry knew that Herman was far superior to them. The father and son couldn't help but be a little angry, and they couldn't understand why Herman was teasing them like this.

At this time, he saw Herman walking up to the two of them, and asked the two of them with a solemn expression: "Patriarch Feiqi, I want to learn the power skills you and Uncle just had, what conditions do you need to agree?" ”

When Feiqi and his son heard this, they suddenly realized. The reason why this boy wants to compete with Harry is because he wants to learn the power technique?

Feige said: "It's just the most common 'concussion' technique, and it's nothing to teach you, and you don't need any conditions. Just let me ask more, with your level of vindictiveness, shouldn't you know this kind of basic thing? ”

"Basics?"

Herman looked stunned, how could such a clever power technique be a basic thing?

This kind of concussion that can directly act on the body is simply a lethal weapon for those knights who have not cultivated the viscera-level fighting qi containment method, even if your skin is tough and your bones are hard, the internal organs are as fragile as ordinary people, once you are hit by the power of the concussion, you will immediately turn into a pile of minced meat.

If Herman can learn this technique, the invincibility of the same rank is by no means a lie, and it is because of him that he has lowered his posture so much.

Seeing this look, Fei Qi knew that Herman had indeed not been exposed to these, and although he was puzzled, he still did not ask, but agreed.

"Since you want to learn, you can fight us for the past two days, the real skills come from fighting."

After a pause, he smiled again and said, "But you have to suppress your strength appropriately." ”

Herman's face turned red, and it turned out that the other party also saw that he had just released water.
