dark witches rise

Chapter 13 Scarlet Skull

After the episode, Roja was addicted to cultivation again.

He spends most of the day practicing war elephant swordsmanship.

Every three hours, he would use the certificate of twin souls to optimize the swordsmanship of the war elephant.

It's a pity that with the optimization and perfection of the Zhanxiang swordsmanship time and time again, when the practice efficiency reaches 250% of the original level, it can no longer go any further.

"Perhaps 250 percent is the limit of the knight's swordsmanship, the War Elephant Swordsmanship."

Roja felt a little regretful, but he also took it for granted.

After all, it is impossible to optimize indefinitely.

In addition to practicing Zhanxiang swordsmanship, when the muscles are tired and sore, and when the body is recovering from the medicine, it is used to read books.

He borrowed many books from the witch doctor Barney, and asked his father Derry to help collect books.

This made Roja's accumulation of knowledge more and more profound.

It can be said that Roja is the most knowledgeable person in Silla Town except for the bottomless Barney witch doctor.

However, Roja only memorized the knowledge in the books, and there is still no time to apply the knowledge to practice.

There is a saying that "learning on paper will eventually make you feel shallow, and you will never know that you have to practice it." Only the combination of books and practice can be regarded as the real learning of knowledge.

But now Roja is busy practicing to become stronger, and the practice can only be done later.

In addition to practicing war elephant swordsmanship and reading and learning, there is also meditation on ancient scrolls.

Because Roja has two souls, the recovery speed of mental power is extremely fast.

The mental fatigue that others need three days to eliminate, Roja only needs a few hours.

So in theory, Roja only needs to rest for a few hours to visualize the ancient scrolls once, and he can visualize up to five or six times a day.

But it would be too scary to do that.

It's okay to scare the witch doctor Barney, but I'm afraid that the witch doctor Barney has other thoughts about him.

After all, the word wizard is not a kind word.

And Roja knew very little about Barney witch doctor.

So it's better to be a bit clumsy.

However, three days is too long. After several trials, Roja shortened the time interval for meditating on the ancient scrolls to once every two days.

Barney witch doctor didn't doubt Roja, but was delighted by Roja's outstanding spiritual talent.

"If you can get the ancient meditation scroll, you don't need to practice hiding it."

"However, the ancient meditation scroll seems to be quite precious. I asked Barney witch doctor a few times, but he refused to let it go."

Time passed day by day, and Roja's strength became stronger day by day.

Because of his hard practice of the improved war elephant swordsmanship.

Although he has not yet reached the realm of knights who can unlock the secret, but with the blessing of both blood and war elephant swordsmanship, his strength has been greatly increased, and he can even lift a stone pier weighing [-] kilograms.

And as the number of times he meditated on the ancient scrolls increased, his spirit became stronger.

Today, he has successfully visualized the third meditation rune, and has been able to see the tenth page of the ancient meditation scroll.

Mental power has more than doubled compared to the beginning.

In addition to training, Roja occasionally took time to join the crusade against the wolf plague.

Because the powerful people in Xinluo Town followed Baron Horn to fight against the wolf king, the guards in Xinluo Town were greatly weakened, and the pressure to face the attack of the wolves increased greatly.

Roja participated in the crusade against the wolves.

The first aspect is to protect the residents of Silla Town.

The second aspect is to increase combat experience.

The third aspect is to brush up achievements and prepare for acquiring territories in the future.

Roja's goal is a wizard, and he doesn't care about titles and territories.

But what about his father?

After all, he is not alone in this world, and he still has to consider the feelings of his family.

Practice war elephant swordsmanship, read books, contemplate and meditate on ancient scrolls, crusade against wolves that harass Silla Town...

Every day is so fulfilling.

……

one night.

Roja who was sleeping soundly woke up suddenly.

He felt his eyelids twitch.

The heart seemed to be several times heavier at once, and every beat seemed extremely laborious.

"what happened?"

A feeling of uneasiness enveloped Roja.

Roja, who really couldn't figure out what was going on, put on his coat and went to the top of the building.

Standing on the spacious roof, the humid cold wind blows in front of you.

Roja's face was covered with a thin layer of mist, and his clothes rattled.

Roja looked into the distance with deep blue eyes.

That was the direction of the Yakara Mountains, and it was also the direction where the wolf king was.

In the dark night, the distant mountains are hazy and unreal.

The howling of wolves faintly coming from that direction felt so far away, as if it came from another world.

"Where does my uneasiness come from? Is it..."

"The proof of twin souls!"

Roja, who really couldn't figure it out, used the certificate of twin souls to investigate.

In the depths of the Yakara Mountains hundreds of kilometers away from Silla Town, a surge of blood surged up like a volcanic eruption, dyeing half of the sky red with blood.

The blood energy turned into a vortex with a diameter of several kilometers in the sky and slowly rotated, and a scarlet skull emerged from the depths of the vortex.

In the depths of the skull's eye sockets, two black flames that seemed to be condensed by countless innocent souls were burning fiercely.

As if he had noticed Roja's gaze, the scarlet skull turned slowly and stared at Roja.

"Wow!"

Roja was so frightened that he backed up violently.

It was not until he retreated to the edge of the roof that his body was close to the railing and almost fell, that he barely stopped his body.

Roja was dripping with sweat, his teeth chattering in fear.

Fortunately, the scarlet skull didn't particularly care about Roja.

He just glanced at Xin Luozhen lightly, and then looked away.

Maybe the Scarlet Skull wasn't looking at Roja at all?
Roja didn't dare to continue to spy, and quickly withdrew from the certificate of twin souls.

Roja's heart was beating fast, and he was covered in cold sweat.

"Okay, so scary!"

"What the hell is that?"

In front of the scarlet skull, Roja felt that he was as small as an ant.

At the same time, he vaguely guessed—this wolf disaster is not as simple as it seems!
"Captain Lei Lun and the others who went to hunt down the wolf king..."

The first thing Roja thought of was Captain Lei Lun, the vice-captain of the Silla Town Defense Team.

He and Captain Lei Lun are both teachers and friends, and his battle elephant swordsmanship was taught by Captain Lei Lun.

If it is in Silla Town...

No, it should be said that among the living people in this world, who is the person he cares most about.

The first must have been his biological father, Derry.

Then the second person is undoubtedly Captain Lei Lun.

Now Captain Lei Lun is in a dangerous vortex, life and death are unknown, but Roja can't do anything.

Roja felt deeply powerless.

"I can't even protect my dearest..."

"It would be great if I could become stronger!"

"I want power!"

"strength!"

Roja didn't even sleep, changed his clothes and walked to the small training ground in the backyard of Kaiteri Castle.

Holding the sword in his hand, he began to practice the battle elephant sword technique.

Before holding the sword, his mind was so messy.

But the moment he held the hilt of the sword, Roja's mood became extremely calm.

stab, pick, tease, dial...

With one sword and one stroke, Roja's spirit was concentrated like never before.

As Roja continued to practice, the twelve secret orifices in his body became hotter and hotter, as if 12 yuan of red-hot iron.

puff!puff!puff! ...

When the secret orifice is hot to the limit, like a cracked water pipe, a stream of heat gushes out of the secret orifice.

The heat flows in Roja's body, strengthening Roja's body.

"call--"

Roja who stopped walking wiped the hot sweat from his forehead.

It wasn't until then that he realized something was wrong.

"The secret aperture has been opened?"

"Have I stepped into the realm of knights?"

It turned out that when Roja was practicing the War Elephant Sword Technique just now, because Roja was too engrossed, he didn't even notice the opening of the secret aperture.

"Originally, it took at least five days of hard work to open the secret orifice, but I didn't expect to open it inexplicably under the emotional excitement tonight."

Regarding stepping into the realm of knights, which would make every swordsman in Silla Town extremely excited, and a big event that could be celebrated with a table, Roja's mood was not disturbed.

For the current Roja, he is just a mere knight.

The strength of the knight... is too weak!
