dark witches rise

Chapter 19 Millennium Bronze Root

Holding the torch, Luke led Roja to the depths of Okoman Castle.

Da da da……

The two walked in a narrow passage and walked down the stairs to the bottom.

The air that has not been circulated for many years is so dull.

Walking deep underground, Roja, who drank too much and took off his coat, felt a little cold.

Arrived.

The two came to the deepest room in the ground.

There are small closed iron doors on the walls around the room, like safes.

No need for Luke to introduce Roja, he would have guessed that this is the room specially used by the Okoman family to store treasures.

Is it really okay to bring him here as an outsider?

Luke, who was drunk, didn't think much of it at all.

Luke stood in front of a thick iron door and took out a bunch of keys from his pocket.

Seeing Luke shaking his hands, holding the key and poking at the keyhole for a while, but he couldn't get in after poking for a long time, Roja was anxious.

When Roja was so anxious that he wanted to go up to help.

click.

The iron gate opened.

Luke took out a half-meter-long box from behind the door and handed it to Roja.

"Here you... become stronger..."

After speaking a few words intermittently, Luke slumped on the ground against the wall.

Tilting his head, he passed out drunk.

Roja gently stroked the box made of top-grade fragrant mahogany in his hand, feeling heavy.

Just smelling the fragrance from the wooden box, Roja felt that his wine was half awake.

"Just this box is worth dozens of gold coins, right?"

"What exactly is in it?"

Roja couldn't wait to open the box.

Inside the box was something wrapped in golden silk cloth.

Roja carefully opened the golden silk cloth, looking at the exposed golden object, Roja's mouth couldn't help opening.

"what?"

"It turned out to be a thousand-year-old bronze root?"

In this magnificent fantasy world, in addition to the extraordinary existence of knights, monsters and wizards, there are also many medicinal herbs with strange medicinal effects.

Some medicinal materials can restore blood energy, relieve fatigue, and speed up cultivation, such as Snakeblood Vine.

Some medicinal materials can stimulate potential, strengthen physique, and increase vitality, such as the thousand-year-old bronze root in front of you.

Roja's fingers lightly slid across the bronze-like tree roots, feeling cold and cold.

The thousand-year-old copper root has metallic light and touch, but Roja can feel the surging vitality from the depth of the thousand-year-old bronze root.

"It is said that the thousand-year-old copper root can make quasi-knights advance to knights, let junior knights reach the peak of knights, and increase the probability of strong knights at the peak of knights entering the realm of great knights."

"It is the treasure that every knight dreams of."

"Once it appears in the market, the price can reach tens of thousands of gold coins, and there is no market for it. If you have money, you can't buy it."

For a family of three, they only need three or five gold coins a year to be fed and clothed.

The Baron Oakman family that ruled Silla Town was the most powerful and richest family nearby, with an annual income of just over a thousand gold coins.

And the thousand-year-old copper root is worth tens of thousands of gold coins!
"This kind of treasure is treasured by certain big families, and it's not even seen on the market."

"Occasionally appearing in the auction house, there will definitely be an uproar. Everyone knows about it, but I haven't heard of it."

"So it should be Luke's father, the former Baron Horn of Okoman, who bought it from a big family at a high price, in order to use it for Luke to break through the great knight."

Although Luke has stepped into the realm of a great knight, this does not mean that the thousand-year-old bronze root is useless.

The role of the thousand-year-old bronze root to increase vitality, strengthen physique, and enhance defense is still effective for great knights.

If Luke eats the thousand-year-old bronze root, his strength will definitely improve in a short time.

Roja stared deeply at Luke who was lying on the ground and passed out drunk.

"You are really drunk!"

Take him to the secret room of Okoman Castle that outsiders must never enter.

Give him the extremely expensive thousand-year-old bronze root.

Is this something that humans can do?
At least the rough Luke he knew would never do such a thing!

"When he sobers up tomorrow, he will regret it, right?"

"But you gave it to me personally, and I can't return it to you."

"So I accepted it."

The thousand-year-old copper root can make Roja, who has just stepped into the initial stage of knighthood, jump to the peak of knighthood, and it can save Roja at least a year of hard training.

How could he give up?

Holding the box containing the thousand-year-old bronze root, he helped Luke leave the secret room.

When coming out of the secret passage, Roja was surprised to find a charming figure standing at the entrance of the secret passage.

Mrs. Xi Ni, who was already charming and charming, had a pair of eyes that were red and swollen from crying, and that pale and haggard face, because of excessive grief.

In addition, Mrs. Xi Ni's status as a widow in her early 40s of her husband who just died...

Roja, who was at a hot-blooded age and drank too much, couldn't help but stare at Mrs. Xi Ni, his body was hot.

After only watching for a few seconds, Roja quickly reacted.

"Hello, Mrs. Xi Ni." Roja suppressed the evil thoughts in his heart, and greeted respectfully.

Mrs. Xi Ni did not answer Roja's greeting.

As if she didn't hear it, she kept looking at the drunk Luke.

After looking at it for a long time, I looked at Roja.

But it's not looking at Roja, but looking at the red incense wood box in Roja's hand.

As Luke's mother, the wife of the former Baron Okoman, she naturally knew what was in that box.

"That is?"

Mrs. Sydney narrowed her eyes and parted her lips.

The strength of Roja's hand holding the box suddenly increased.

"The enemy is now, Lord Luke gave me something in order to make me stronger as soon as possible." Roja replied.

Roja didn't lie to Mrs. Xi Ni, because he knew he couldn't.

If Mrs. Xi Ni wanted him to return the thousand-year-old bronze root, he could only reason with her.

He will never give up easily with the thousand-year-old bronze root!

Madam Xi Ni believed Roja's words.

Because although she left the hall to rest soon after the meeting, the people she arranged have been taking care of Roja and Luke who were drinking.

It wasn't until Luke took Roja to the secret room below that the servants woke up Mrs. Sydney after feeling bad, and then Mrs. Sydney came quickly.

Unfortunately, it is still a step behind.

Luke actually gave Roja the thousand-year-old bronze root.

She knew very well how much her husband, Baron Horn, had paid for this thousand-year-old bronze root!

Yu Gong, in order to resist the wolf disaster, it seems reasonable to give Roja the thousand-year-old bronze root to strengthen his strength.

But why didn't Luke eat it himself?
Mrs. Sydney believes that when Luke sobers up tomorrow, he will regret his decision tonight.

So Roja should be asked to return the Millennium Bronze Root?
Seeing Roja's firm eyes, Mrs. Xi Ni had a headache.

Doing so will definitely make Roja feel resentful, right?

The Okoman family has already sacrificed too much in this wolf disaster. If they set up another talented and powerful enemy, life will be very difficult in the future.

Even if Luke is a great knight.

Ugh……

Mrs. Xi Ni sighed softly in her heart and chose to give in.

"Roya, don't forget the Okoman family's cultivation of you." Mrs. Xi Ni said in a deep voice.

"I will never forget this kindness!" Roja was overjoyed to find that Mrs. Xi Ni did not make things difficult for him.

If Mrs. Xi Ni asked him to return the thousand-year-old bronze root, it would be really difficult for him to do so.

After all, the thousand-year-old bronze root belonged to someone else, and Roja had a conscience that could not bear it.

Reasoning with Mrs. Sydney?

To put it bluntly, it is coercion and temptation, telling the other party how powerful and talented he is, it is best to make friends with him now, otherwise he will stand on the opposite side of the Okoman family in the future, and the Okoman family will definitely not have a good time.

Now there is no need to rob, no need to talk about "reason", which saves Roja a lot of effort.

At the same time, he couldn't help admiring Mrs. Xi Ni.

For other women, there is a high probability that they would not be so aware of the general situation.
