"Lord Cross, are you alright?"

"Don't come near me! Cross scolded Gawain, who tried to get close to him, but the latter was frightened by the tough tone and stopped coming closer.

The pain in my legs did not abate, but intensified.

Cross gritted his teeth and sat up in pain, and he lifted the black robe that covered his legs, and an amazing scene unfolded before his eyes.

The calves of his legs were all covered in blood, and the bloodshot was still slowly squirming, which was a terrifying scene. Even Gawain was so frightened by this scene that he sat on the ground.

Bloodline backlash!

Close immediately knew what was causing the pain, and he took out a magic potion and dripped it onto his legs.

The moment the blue magic potion touched the blood, it was engulfed, and the pain was much less.

Completely suppressing this backlash consumed a quarter of the mana potion, and this result made Cross worried.

Ever since he saw the letter at the Necromancer's residence, Cross had only thought about returning to his hometown, and the sooner he returned, the better he could stop the conspiracy of endless reincarnation. Therefore, he did not agree with Gawain's dangerous and time-consuming anti-hometown plan, which in his opinion was nothing more than Gawain's selfish desires.

But after being attacked by the bloodline, his mind changed.

He realized that as Crane's adopted son, there was no need to pay too much for Klein. Moreover, he has been away from his hometown for 12 years, and he does not have any support from any forces in Klein, and even an operation such as exposing the conspiracy of endless reincarnation cannot be carried out normally.

What's more, the bloodline has been activated, and the backlash of the bloodline will always accompany him, 5 bottles of magic potions will not last long, once these potions are used up and no new magic potions are found, then, what awaits him is death.

Of course, Cross didn't want to go to such an endgame, he didn't want to die.

He was well aware that a person's search for a magic potion would be very restrictive, but if he had a power, the result would be completely different. The forces can use multiple resources to find the magic potion in the shortest possible time, and even secretly create the magic potion, if they can really make the magic potion by themselves, then Cross no longer has to worry about the bloodline backlash.

Thinking of this, Cross couldn't help but smile evilly.

And Gao Wen in front of him has not yet recovered from his fright, "Pavilion...... Excellency...... You ......"

Cross glanced at Gawain, smiled, and said, "Since I went to the Military Academy, my body has had some symptoms, just now, the phenomenon is called hemagglutination, once it happens, the blood clotting site will produce severe pain, but the symptoms can be eliminated with medicine. ”

"Is it contagious!?"

"No, if it was contagious, I would have been expelled from the academy a long time ago, I just told you not to come near me, I just didn't want you to see the disgusting symptoms. ”

After listening to Cross's explanation, Gawain returned to his original state, sat up straight, and said, "Your Excellency Cross, you are really ill-fated. ”

"Gawain, it's too early for you to say this, let's wait until we cross the Dusk Mountains to Copperhill Town. ”

Gawain smiled.

Seeing that Gawain had accepted the setting of hemocoagulation, Cross couldn't help but sigh for his on-the-spot adaptability and Gawain's naivety: Hemaglotting, there is still a place for use in the future.

Then, the two of them took torches and swords and entered the Dusk Mountains.

......

It was late at night, and the two of them found an open space to spend the night after walking for a while.

At this time, Gawain suddenly asked, "Lord Cross, can I ask you a question?"

"Asked. ”

"Why are you here?"

Cross was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect Gawain to ask such a question, and his mind began to spin at high speed:

Could it be that the news of his assassination has spread throughout the Klein Territory?

This is impossible, and if this is the case, then Endless Reincarnation simply cannot use its own body to control the Klein Collar.

Then, Gawain's question was superficial, and he certainly couldn't understand why Cross, who was studying at the Imperial Military Academy, appeared in this place.

"I was assassinated, but I escaped, and I had to make a detour. Cross casually made up a reason, he knew that a lie must be short, and the shorter the lie, the less flawed it is.

Hearing this answer, Gawain looked at Cross with wide eyes, his eyes full of surprise.

Gawain knew that although Cross was two years younger than himself, Cross had shown calmness and calmness beyond his years since he was a child, so after Cross killed three enemy soldiers before, Gawain was not overly surprised, at most he just admired Cross's skills.

But now, Cross actually recounted the assassination in a very ordinary tone, and the image of Cross instantly became tall in Gawain's heart, and at this moment, he suddenly believed the rumors that had been circulating in Klein's territory recently.

"Lord Cross, are you aware of the rumors about you in Klein Collar lately?"

Cross shook his head.

"It is rumored that Your Excellency is the most suitable lord for the Crane Territory, and only Your Excellency can restore the glory of the Crane Territory. ”

Cross smiled casually, he immediately understood that these rumors were just a trick of endless reincarnation, and he smiled and said, "You don't even believe the rumors, do you?"

"I believe it. ”

Gawain's firm answer surprised Cross a little, and he was slightly interested in this selfish coward.

"Your Excellency, do you know why I'm going to escape from the Castle of Paradise and return to Copperhill?" Gawain continued.

"That's what I want to ask you, Gawain. If it is just an ordinary deserter, it will not be prepared in advance to designate an escape route. ”

"Your Excellency, did you know that the current lord of Crane Collar is your uncle, Joey Crane. ”

"No wonder there is such a mess in the Klein Territory, it turns out that Joey usurped power. ”

"Damn Joey! He transferred me to the Castle of Nothing, and reduced me from a noble court swordsman to an ordinary guard! You understand me, don't you? ”

Cross smiled silently, he knew that the so-called divine punishment or something was just an excuse for Gawain to cover up his selfish desires.

As for Joey, he obviously won't target Gawain alone. As a close confidant of the old earl, Gawain was only one of the victims of Joey's usurpation of power.

It's just that this uncle of his is too impatient, which will lead to the emergence of rebels in Klein, but Cross knows very well that this so-called rebel is actually Joey, and the rebels are also the notoriety that Joey gave them.

Cross was eager to learn about the rebels, but Gawain didn't know anything about them. Now, all he knew was that Klein was in chaos.

However, this mess is exactly what Cross needs.
