Chapter 104 Dragonborn Bloodline (Second Change)
Jerusalem.

Princess Sibilla hugged her son, reciting in a low voice to the newly added thick booklet in her hand. On the cover, there was a middle-aged man with two swords on his back, a full head of white hair, and a stern expression.

This is a fantasy novel that has become popular in Jerusalem recently.

"Behind Fan Helsing, there are two swords. The steel sword kills traitors, and the silver sword kills evil spirits. People fear and need them. While calling them mutant bastards, they cannot do without their help..."

Sibylla's gentle voice tells the tale of the legendary witcher.

Little Baldwin listened intently, curled up in his mother's arms, motionless.

"Let's be here today."

"Mother, is this over?"

Little Baldwin was a little disappointed.

Sibyl raised his face and said seriously: "This is just entertainment, don't indulge in it. You must always remember that you are the future heir of the Kingdom of Jerusalem."

Little Baldwin said with some fascination: "It would be great if I could become a witcher, even if I live in a wet swamp, with swamp water ghosts and woodland witches."

"The witcher's seal, crossbow, silver sword, and his strong physique and fierce swordsmanship—Mother, this is really interesting."

He fluttered a little excitedly.

The life of a witcher living in the open air in the novel fascinated him a little. He couldn't imagine the pain of hunger and cold, but thought it was cool and chic.

Being born into the royal family is both luck and misfortune.

As the sole heir of Baldwin IV, he is always in the vortex of political struggle.

The gazes projected from the dark corners, with ulterior motives and malicious intentions, are too numerous to enumerate.

In these years, the number of times he walked out of the palace can be counted on the fingers.

Princess Sibilla showed a trace of sternness on her face: "Born into the royal family, one shoulders a sacred mission, just like the only heir to the Kingdom of Sintra, Princess Ciri described in the novel."

"But didn't Princess Ciri also travel around with Van Helsing?"

"You can understand this as the knight who saved the last royal princess, Princess Ciri, will eventually regain her due authority in the future, and rule the kingdom as a woman."

Sibylah looked solemn, and she said as it should: "Jerusalem will always belong to our Baldwin family."

But where is my Van Helsing?
In the empty desert.

The Jerusalem Knights in blue burqas surrounded the king and moved forward slowly.

Baldwin IV smiled and handed the book Lothar personally gave him to relieve boredom to Baron Godfrey who was sitting opposite him.

"Mr. Godfrey, if you have free time, you can read this novel."

Godfrey was a little surprised: "Is this the one that Baron Lothar gave you?"

"Indeed, besides entertainment, I also saw a lot of novel things here. Perhaps, it can subtly change people's views."

Just as there are a thousand Hamlets in the eyes of a thousand people.

What he saw in the book "The Demon Hunter" written by Lothar was a governance philosophy similar to his own.

Vendetta will only deepen the contradictions among ethnic groups.

Isn't the discrimination suffered by non-human beings just like the pagans who are never regarded as human beings in many aristocratic territories in the Kingdom of Jerusalem?
If the Kingdom of Jerusalem was just a colonial regime where a minority ruled the majority, it would sooner or later be eaten away by the increasingly powerful Zoroastrian forces.

Because overseas, compared with the huge number of pagans, Christians and Franks are a minority. It is impossible for them to kill all the pagans and completely change the race of this land.

The gap between the Saracens and the Franks is not as great as that between the Indians and the Anzas.

Only by allowing those pagans to board the table of sharing benefits can this kingdom be maintained for a long time.

In this regard, the Iberian Umayyad (Wumayyad) dynasty seems to have done better.

In that country, the Jews who were originally outsiders had a status similar to that of the Zoroastrians. They would naturally pay blood to protect their hard-won living space.

in the tavern.

The bard played the lute and, with a charming exotic accent, recited the song written especially for the prologue in the Witcher novel——White Wolf and Lilac.

"Well sung, The Irishman of Munster, what a poignant love story, but what I want to know, who is the White Wolf?"

"Of course it's the great demon hunter Van Helsing. This is the hottest story in Jerusalem recently. According to legend, Van Helsing is the reincarnation of the Archangel Gabriel..."

"Oh Father, this is a blasphemy against holy angels."

Someone curled his lips and said, "What is blasphemy, you'll know it just by looking at it. Demon hunters practice justice, punish rape and eliminate evil, and they are much more humane than the holy angels that priests talk about."

There was a scolding battle in the tavern.

The pious believe that this novel is a blasphemy against the gods, and some people think that a fantasy novel with a superficial background should not be too harsh. Some people simply think that if God can really uphold justice, it is more worthy than the clay and wood sculptures on the wall. Revered?
In a theologically rich Jerusalem, such debates are inevitable.

This made Archbishop William, who was already in a state of desperation and worried about how to explain the loss of the sacred relic, even worse.

Princess Isabella rubbed the center of her brows wearily. Her brother's imperial conquest, in the eyes of many, would be the last swan song of his talented brother in his ruling career.

Although Jerusalem has almost been evacuated.

But the remaining nobles are still connecting in private, and Princess Isabella and Princess Sibilla, who have the right to inherit the throne, naturally become the vortex of all this.

"The love between Van Helsing and Yennefer is really exciting."

"If only I could have powerful magic power like Yennefer, I can open a portal wherever I want to go-I haven't seen my family for three years."

The whisperings of the maids disturbed her.

"What are you talking about? What Van Helsing, Yennefer, and the old-fashioned story described in which legendary novel?"

"I warn you, don't disturb my lunch break!"

She said with disdain.

But in the afternoon, when she attended an aristocratic banquet, she found that almost everyone was talking about this novel.

When she was a majestic princess, but she couldn't even get in the conversation, she made up her mind that after returning to the palace, she must invite a literate tutor to read The Demon Hunter for her.

Lothar didn't know that before he left, he ordered the printing workshop to release the novel "The Witcher" in small batches, which had already become popular in Jerusalem.

Or it was as early as Lothar expected.

Compared with knight novels, the content is richer and more colorful, and the magnificent fantasy world described in it, which most people can't imagine, fascinates the general public who are poor in spiritual food.

Even the extravagant nobles are often willing to squeeze out part of the time wasted on the bed to listen to this novel.

At this moment, Lothar was slumped on the ground with some exhaustion.

Killing God Crocodile allowed him to successfully raise his level, but this exhaustion was not due to physical strength, but more to the mental weakness caused by harnessing the huge blood magic power.

[Your level has been improved. 】

The system beeps continuously.

Killing God Crocodile gave him an extremely rich amount of experience. From the original four levels, he was directly promoted to three levels, reaching level six, with more than half of the experience bar, and a total of nine attribute points.

You have completed the milestone [God Slaying Act], and you will get a talent lottery that focuses on improving your personal abilities. In this lottery, you will get a guaranteed minimum quality of epic level.

The notification sound of the system completing the milestone, telling him the fact that God Crocodile is dead, finally eased the tension in his mind.

Without the slightest hesitation, he directly chose the lottery draw.

Although the crocodile god is dead, the power he borrowed from Fringila has also been exhausted. This sense of powerlessness makes him feel extremely insecure after experiencing powerful power just now.

A golden light shone in the narrow chamber.

Lothar's eyes lit up, except for the time when Prajna came, this was the first time he saw the golden brilliance in the lottery in the system!
They flowed in the air like fish, and finally, they chose Lothar, who was sitting in the secret room in front of the crocodile god's broken sculpture, as the target, and quickly gathered.

You have acquired a legendary talent.

Bloodline of Dragonborn: The bloodline of ancient Dragonborn flows in your body. The bloodline has been passed down from generation to generation. It was already extremely thin, but in your generation, it has regained its vitality.

Your all stats are increased by 20.00%.

Your health and regeneration will be greatly improved.

Your resistance to witchcraft and curses will get a [-]% bonus.

You will be immune to most diseases.

You are 90.00% less likely to have offspring.

Increase your lifespan by 100 years.

When you complete the eliteization of individuals, your talent dragonborn will be advanced to [True Dragon Body].

Lothar was silent for a moment, and said in a hey voice: "There is no dragon girl in the system, so I became a little dragon?"

In the darkness, he opened his eyes, and a golden light flashed in his pupils. The 20.00% increase had limited effect on him with low attributes.

But this feeling like a reborn body still made him feel that the whole world has become a little different in his senses.

The most obvious thing is that he obtained [Dark Vision], even in a dark secret room, he can still see clearly.

"It's a pity that when I can upgrade to the level of elite, I won't know the year of the monkey."

The upgrade of the retinue can rely on krypton gold, but the upgrade of his body cannot.

Although he, who is against the three-star retinue, has a full level of only 55, but if he wants to rely on conventional means to upgrade, it may take decades
Or, just let yourself be the executioner, and get rid of all the prisoners after winning the next war, right?
Or, by studying the Black Death and spreading the disease to the heathen cities, tens of thousands of people will naturally die.

As soon as Lothar came up with this idea, there was a burst of horror in his heart.

wrong!

Something is wrong!
How did I come up with such an anti-human idea?
Or, does the change in blood really affect one's spirit?
