dark witches rise

5 - My blood

In fact, Roja is not concerned about the life and death of the three defense team members.

It's just that the death of an acquaintance reminded him of a feeling——

fear!

He is afraid.

The thing that frightened him was death.

And he could think of one and only one way to get rid of his fear.

That is--

strength!

If it's strong enough, how can it get hurt?
If it is strong enough, how can it die?
He wants to obtain a powerful force that can ignore all dangers and will never be threatened by death!
Both Roja and Captain Lei Lun nervously looked at the closed room in front of them.

Similar actions, but completely different inner thoughts.

I don't know how long I waited.

The door creaked open, and Barney, the witch doctor with a tired face, walked out of the room slowly.

"How are they?" Captain Lei Lun asked hastily.

"Wage's left leg is crippled. Butch's body may not be able to do heavy work in the future. David looks the most injured, but in fact it's just a skin trauma. He can recover after a month or two of rest." Barney Wu said the doctor.

Hearing that the three were not dead, Captain Lei Lun breathed a sigh of relief.

"Can I go in and see them?"

"Ah."

After receiving the promise from the witch doctor Barney, Captain Lei Lun walked quickly into the ward.

Captain Leilun's words of concern and the weak responses of the injured team members soon came from the room.

Only Roja and Barney witch doctor are left behind.

Barney witch doctor nodded slightly to Roja, "I know why you are here, come with me."

Roja followed Barney witch doctor and walked into the hall of Barney's medical hall.

The wall directly in front of the hall was hollowed out and there were small drawers, each containing different herbs.

The witch doctor Barney didn't stay in the hall, and went straight to a small door on the far left side of the hall.

It was a wooden door made of several thin wooden boards, and it seemed to have many gaps.

With the opening of the wooden door, a dark and lightless passage was revealed.

A gust of wind gushed out from the passage, blowing Roja's body could not help but shrink.

"Master Barney, inside is..."

However, before Roja finished speaking, he found that the figure of the witch doctor Barney had disappeared into the depths of the passage.

Roja raised his foot and was about to walk in.

Suddenly, a dog barking came from behind.

Roja turned his head and found a black dog barking at him, as if warning him, as if afraid of him.

The noon sun slanted across the eaves and shone on Roja's body, but the supposedly warm sunshine made Roja feel a little chilly.

Roja had an ominous premonition in his heart.

But he wants power more!
Roja followed the back of the witch doctor Barney and quickly entered the passage, and the wooden door behind him closed silently.

The only light source was lost, and the entire passage became extremely dark.

Roja could only follow the footsteps of Barney witch doctor.

Hey, hey, hey...

The sound of crisp footsteps echoed in the narrow passage.

I don't know if it's an illusion, but Roja actually vaguely heard the weird laughter of "hee hee".

"Maybe it's just an illusion."

Roja comforted himself while speeding up his pace.

When he reached the end of the passage, Roja's clothes were soaked with sweat.

At the end of the passage, there is a sealed room with six walls of less than five square meters.

There is no window in this room, but there are small holes the size of chopsticks on the wall near the ceiling.

Sunlight turned into beams of light through the small holes and shot into the room, and fine dust floated in the beams of light.

Being irradiated by these beams of light, Roja felt as cold as if he was shot by the aimed infrared rays of a sniper rifle.

In order to conceal the fear in his heart, Roja carefully observed the room with the faint light.

The room was empty, except for Roja and Barney witch doctor.

However, every wall is engraved with dark red ancient patterns.

"Aren't those lines drawn with blood?"

The moment these thoughts surfaced, Roja actually heard the sound of running water, and a strong smell of blood poured into his nostrils.

The surrounding walls were leaking.

The leak is still blood!
"what!"

Roja couldn't help but exclaimed.

Run away!
Roja, who was about to pull Witch Doctor Barney out of this room, found Witch Doctor Barney smiling at him with his hands behind his back.

"what happened?"

"Something's wrong..."

Roja felt the throbbing of his temples, and there were bursts of tingling pain from the depths of his brain.

Roja, who covered his forehead with his hands and took a few steps back, suddenly closed his eyes.

"what--"

"call--"

After taking a few deep breaths.

When Roja opened his eyes again, the blood disappeared.

The place where he was was just an ordinary dark room.

It's just that whenever he carefully looked at the lines on the wall of the room, there would always be overlapping phantoms in his eyes, as if he was drunk.

Roja could only force himself to no longer observe the room, and no longer think about unnecessary things.

He looked straight at the witch doctor Barney, and asked the question that had been lingering in his mind for half a month.

"Mr. Barney, why did you bring me to this room? Is it about the blood in my body?"

After half a month of reading and investigation, Roja already knew the essence of those wriggling bloodshot threads in his body.

That is the awakening of the blood that can only be achieved after stepping into the realm of the great knight!
Those bloodshots are the blood vessels in his body!
only--

How could he have blood?

Isn't blood a special physique that only nobles possess?

His father's family was an ordinary commoner who was born in the surrounding villages and towns of Silla Town for five consecutive generations, and had nothing to do with the nobles at all.

The only person who could bring him blood, the only one he could think of was his mother.

His mother is a disaster victim who fled from other places.

He inherited his father Derry's looks.

Neither handsome nor handsome, walking on the street can perfectly mix with passerby A.

However, this ordinary face is not completely ordinary, and it will give people a feeling of "this person is a good person and can be trusted".

When his father Derry started his business, he relied on this ordinary but trustworthy face.

He looks like his father, and his eyes follow his mother.

Roja has pupils similar to those of his biological mother.

A pair of pure and beautiful eyes like sapphires.

People in this world have a variety of hair colors and skin colors. Just walking on the streets of Silla Town, you can see red-haired, white-haired, blond, and brown-haired people everywhere.

There are not many people with heterochromatic pupils, but those with sapphire pupils.

Roja only knew two people since he was a child, one was his mother and the other was himself.

The witch doctor Barney specially found him and brought him to this almost sealed room to talk, which must have something to do with his bloodline and his mother's life experience.

"Could it be that my mother came from a certain big family?" Roja looked forward to Barney's answer.

Barney witch doctor gently stroked the sparse white beard on his chin.

"What does this have to do with your mother?"

"I've awakened the blood that only nobles have?"

"We humans have inherited the blood of the demon god. Those who awaken the blood can have powerful power beyond the limit of the human body, but how many thousands of years ago did the demon god exist? Today's human beings, except for a very few special families, the nobles and civilians There was no difference in blood levels."

"Yes, is it?"

"The reason why most of the awakened bloodlines become great knights are nobles is simply because they can get better training, better teachers, and better resources. The probability of becoming a great knight is far greater than that of ordinary people."

Roja felt that what Barney witch doctor said made sense.

If we really want to go back to the source, which person's ancestors were not nobles?
And unless the nobles have intermarried within the clan for generations, the blood has been diluted so much that it can no longer be diluted after tens of thousands of years from the age of gods to the present.

In other words, his bloodline is not special at all compared to other people.
