After going into the sea, I met the witch lady

Chapter 99 Bathing with Freni? ! (Please subscribe)
  Rotating and twisting, Ryan felt like a small fish being sucked into a whirlpool in the sea, unable to move and forced to follow the current.

After an unknown amount of time, he felt his body relax, and the darkness in front of him receded like a tide.

At the first moment, he looked at the girl who was held tightly in his arms.

Seeing that she was not thrown away during the "spin", Ryan was relieved.

Looking around, Ryan found himself in a strange space.

The stone pillars on the left and right sides are each several meters thick and nearly a hundred meters high, and are filled with complex and magnificent relief carvings.

Looking along the direction where the stone pillars extend, what comes into view is a magnificent and majestic huge temple.

It is like a fortress inhabited by giants. Its specifications and dimensions reach an astonishing level of over a hundred meters.

The top of the temple was not a traditional building roof, but a prostrate stone giant wolf. He lowered his head, and his eyes seemed to span a long time, falling on Ryan and Freni in his arms.

"Well……"

Just as Ryan was observing the situation around him, a soft voice sounded.

Hearing the voice, Ryan lowered his head in surprise and met Miss Witch's slowly opening light blue eyes.

"Lady Freni, you are finally awake."

"Have I... slept for a long time?" The girl who had just woken up still had a hazy look in her eyes, like the clear mist after the rain.

But soon, the fog dissipated, and the girl's eyes regained their clarity.

Before she had time to sort out the large amount of knowledge that appeared in her mind, Phryne felt a strange warmth coming from her thighs and armpits.

"It's not that long, right?"

Ryan replied, and at this time he also realized that the postures of both parties were inappropriate, and quickly carefully placed the girl on the ground.

Miss Witch's body is very light. With Ryan's strength, holding her is like holding a soft ball of flowers, and you can't feel any weight.

Even with the barrier of the dress, Ryan could clearly feel the feeling of his fingers sinking in through the dress.

After landing, Freni did not speak, but stretched out her hand to straighten the somewhat messy fluffy witch hat on her head. The wide brim covered the girl's fair and jade-like face, making it impossible to see the expression on her face: " Mr. Lane, where are we?”

"The Blood Moon Temple, an ancient relic passed down from the era of gods." Ryan replied: "Lady Freni, you are not injured, are you?"

"I'm fine." Freni rubbed her brows. The influx of a lot of knowledge made her mentally tired: "The blood witch pulled me into a special place earlier and told me something. By the way, Ryan Sir, she said she would give you a 'test', are you okay?"

Although Ryan seemed to show no signs of injury, Phryne could not help but feel worried.

"I just fought with a few monsters, the Black Knight, and the twelfth black knight, which consumed some physical strength and spirituality." Ryan waved his hand indifferently.

"Seat Black Knight?" Freni blinked. Surprise first appeared in her light blue eyes, and then there was deep worry. She couldn't help but reach out and hold Ryan's wrist, and the dark blue magic entered his body. After checking it over and confirming that there was indeed no injury, I felt completely relieved.

"It's okay, it's okay."

"The strength of the twelfth-level black knight is absolutely top-notch among the second-level elites. It is difficult for ordinary second-level witches to be his opponents..."

Phryne said softly.

"The twelfth black knight has been eliminated by me." Ryan interjected, facing the girl's astonished eyes, he smiled and said: "Thanks to the [first-order spiritual enhancement crystal] you gave me. After taking it, I’ve made tremendous spiritual progress.”

"..."

Freni was silent for a moment.

She wanted to say that the upper limit of spirituality raised by ten [First-Level Spirituality Enhancement Crystals] was only 33% of that of a first-level extreme professional. There was no way a first-level official professional could defeat a second-level elite professional. And he is also the twelfth black knight at the second level limit.

Taking a closer look at Mr. Lane’s time since he took office until now, it has only been so long...

Her thoughts turned around, but in the end, Freni remained the same as before. She didn't ask anything, but said in a soft voice: "...No matter what, just be fine."

"What happened outside while I was asleep?"

Ryan organized some conversation and told Freni that he was asked to "star" on stage by the Blood Witch, as well as the story of "The Brave Man and the First Witch".

"The hero and the first witch..."

Freni's eyes were dazed for a moment, and only a witch could best understand the situation of the "first witch" back then.

After coming back to her senses, Freni also told Ryan the key points of her conversation with Blood Witch Serena.

Of course, she concealed the key point - the witch's curse pollution.

"Blood Witch, is she going to die?!"

Surprise appeared on Ryan's face. Was the overwhelming terrifying strength of the Blood Witch still just in the weak state before her death? It's hard to imagine how strong she would have been in her prime.

Is this the existence of the fourth-order limit...

After the surprise, Ryan's face also showed a look of surprise. He understood the reason behind the series of things the Blood Witch did, and also understood the reason why she was still fearless in the face of the warning from the "circus leader" - human beings He was about to die, so how could he be afraid of a mere threat?

Shaking his head, Ryan said in a deep voice: "Lady Freni, let's go to the stone palace in front and take a look first."

"Judging from the current situation, the Blood Witch threw us into the 'Blood Moon Temple' and most likely had no intention of harming us." Speaking of this, he laughed at himself:
  "After all, with her strength, if she really wants to go against us, she won't go to such great lengths."

Phryne nodded.

Afterwards, the two walked side by side towards the stone palace not far away.

As he walked, Ryan continued to observe the place.

This is a quite wide space. Judging from the scale of the stone palace seen at the bottom of Mingjin Volcano before, it is unlikely that such an area can be accommodated. In other words, is this place deeper underground? Or is it that the stone temple under the volcano is just a medium, and this is an independent spiritual space?
  Ryan speculated in his mind.

Soon, the two of them arrived at the gate of the stone palace.

As they got closer, they could feel the majesty of the stone palace even more. Standing in front of the dozens of meters high stone door with a slightly open gap, Ryan and Freni were like ants that had strayed into the land of giants.

Ryan took the first step and stood in front of the gap in the stone door, preparing to explore the way first.

Compared with Freni, with the [Gluttony Heart] skill, his "health bar" is not even the slightest bit thicker. Although he has not seen Freni take action after being promoted to the second level, he can judge from her performance at the first level that Miss Witch is obviously a "mage" with "high attack and low defense".

Looking at the back of Ryan who took the first step, Freni paused slightly, but did not make a sound to stop her.

After knowing that Ryan had a record of defeating the [-]th Black Knight, she knew that Ryan was now a powerful swordsman who could stand alone.

Between the two of them, it is indeed the most suitable choice for Ryan to explore the way.

In the dome of the Blood Moon Temple, there is a huge light stone embedded in the wall, which emits light and makes the entire temple as bright as day.

Ryan stepped into it.

He walked very carefully. After all, no one knew whether there would be traps in the Blood Moon Temple.

But until he reached the center of the temple, in front of a pool of blood that was as bright as a ruby, he didn't encounter any traps.

Obviously, this ruin with such harsh conditions for opening has no intention of setting up any more traps to "trap" entrants.

Freni followed Ryan's footsteps and looked at the blood pool. She whispered: "Is this the 'holy blood'? It feels almost the same as ordinary water except for the color, and you can't feel it from above. To the slightest bit of spirituality.”

Ryan did not reply immediately, but looked at the introduction that popped up in gray fonts in front of him.

[Holy Blood: A divine thing, a pure thing that [The Blood King] separated from its origin. After a thousand years, its effect has weakened a lot. Soaking the body in it and performing 'baptism of holy blood' will slowly increase one's own additional spiritual limit (this increase can break through the level limit and does not affect the difficulty of the original spiritual improvement). The specific amount of increase depends on the body's endurance. It's related to rank. Due to the long storage time, the holy blood can only be effective on second-level professionals at most.

Please note that divine objects can only take effect once for anyone. Even the divine objects of other gods cannot have similar effects again. 】

"Holy Blood... [King of Blood]... Is this the name of a god from the era of gods thousands of years ago?"

Ryan's heart was shaken.

Not only because the holy blood comes from the legacy of a god, but more importantly, the effect of this thing is so similar to the [First-order Spiritual Enhancement Crystal] that Freni gave him!

Could it be said that the raw material of [First-order Spiritual Ascension Crystal] is...

It's very scary to think about.

How could the history of the Augustus royal family be so terrifying?
  Ryan couldn't help but feel a little dry.

It can only be said that Freni's thighs are becoming thicker and whiter, and this "soft rice" is becoming more and more delicious...

Shaking his head, Ryan stopped thinking and looked at Miss Witch beside him: "This should be the holy blood."

Freni squatted down at the edge of the blood pool and observed it carefully. After more than ten seconds, she frowned slightly: "There is so much, most likely it is not for drinking directly. Could it be said that it is going to be soaked?"

"You can try it." Although he knew how to use [Holy Blood] through the panel, Ryan couldn't say it directly.

"Then I'll go down and give it a try." Freni nodded slightly and looked at Ryan: "This time, don't steal it from me."

What these words refer to is what happened just now when Ryan took the lead to explore the way.

"Row."

Knowing that [Holy Blood] was harmless, Ryan nodded indifferently.

Seeing this, Freni showed a satisfied smile on her face. Then, she turned around, looked at the pool of blood in front of her, and began to take off her shoes. However, just halfway through taking off her shoes, she suddenly realized a very important problem.

Soaking yourself in a pool of blood, isn't it equivalent to "taking a bath" in front of Mr. Lane? !
  Under the fluffy witch hat, the earlobes covered by the shadows turned a faint red. Freni pursed her lips tightly - the water in the blood pool was so rich that people could not see anything once they entered. In this case, it would not be possible. It’s considered a “bath bath”, right?
  Consoling herself in this way, Freni immediately relaxed a lot and continued to take off her shoes.

The smooth and crystal-clear feet were exposed to the air, and the toes were as smooth as pearls. Freni lightly tapped the surface of the holy blood pool with her toes, and ripples rippled out.

At the same time, as her toes touched the holy blood pool, Freni suddenly felt a trace of extremely pure spirituality pouring into her body. Although there was only a very small amount, it still made her feel her own spirituality. of rise.

“It really can be used by soaking it!”

Freni looked happy.

But soon, she noticed something strange about the holy blood pool.

With her touch, some kind of "program" seemed to be activated, and a large number of bubbles began to appear on the surface of the holy blood pool, and extremely rich spirituality also rose continuously from the blood pool.

"The effect of the holy blood is evaporating?"

Freni looked stunned for a moment, but she quickly reacted. Without thinking too much, she jumped into the pool of holy blood, hoping to absorb as much as possible before the effect of the holy blood evaporated.

Seeing this scene, Ryan hesitated.

The effect of [Holy Blood] cannot be missed. However, Freni has gone down. If he follows, wouldn't it be...

Just when he was hesitating, Freni's voice came from the blood pool:

"Mr. Lane, come down quickly, the effect of the holy blood is disappearing."

The girl's voice was filled with pure anxiety, and there was nothing strange about it.

But her clenched little hands, which were soaked in the pool of holy blood and invisible to outsiders, showed that the girl's mind was not as calm as it appeared.

After hearing Freni's words, Ryan took a deep breath and no longer hesitated.

The effect of [Holy Blood] is very strong, and the panel does not say that its effect will conflict with [First-order Spiritual Enhancement Crystal], which means that the two can be superimposed.

His spiritual foundation at the first level was already exaggerated. If he uses [Holy Blood] to improve it and uses it as a basis to advance to the second level, he himself cannot predict to what extent his spirituality will be improved.

"Whoa..."

The blood splashed slightly, forming water splashes. Ryan's entire body was immersed in the blood, with only one head rising above the water, and two meters in front of him, there was Freni, who also had only her head rising.

Their eyes met, and both of them subconsciously looked away.

As the two people entered, the holy blood pool seemed to have found a "catharsis point". The spirituality that was supposed to "volatile and dissipate" penetrated into the two people's bodies, and even formed two vortexes of blood on the water.

The rich and pure spirituality is washing through the body every minute and every second. Ryan can feel that his spirituality is getting stronger at a speed visible to the naked eye.
