dark witches rise

Chapter 12

early morning.

The sky in the Far East is shining with a thousand zhangs.

When the sun still embraced the pipa and half covered the face, Silla Town had woken up from its lethargy.

On the street in the distance, there was the sound of shouting for breakfast.

Members of the garrison wearing leather armor were running along Silla Town in the morning.

The maids in Kaiteri Castle also got up early to buy vegetables, sweep the floor, and cook breakfast.

The busy maids noticed Roja who was training in the training ground.

"Master Roja woke up really early."

"Master Roja is completely unlike other rich second generations who only know how to eat, drink and have fun. He will definitely become a powerful knight in the future."

"I don't know if Master Roja needs a girl who warms the bed?"

Many maids looked at Roja blushing.

Roja, who had practiced for a whole night, was sweating from his body, and it had been repeated countless times.

If it wasn't for the awakened bloodline, it would be impossible for Roja to continue practicing for so long.

Roja put the long sword back on the weapon rack, feeling a little weak in his hands.

Not just his hands, but his whole body was weakening.

This is a sign of physical overdraft.

"Too excited, is it too long to practice at once?"

Roja smiled wryly and shook his head.

"However, it is not without gains, especially the use of three soul certificates to improve the War Elephant Sword Technique, which has increased the training efficiency of the War Elephant Sword Technique by a full 40.00%."

"I am confident that within half a year, I will be able to step into the realm of knights."

Half a year can be said to be long or short, but compared to the previous three to five years of hard work to step into the knight realm, it is much faster.

After washing.

After changing his clothes, Roja came to the restaurant for breakfast.

At the dining table that can accommodate more than ten people at the same time, four people are already seated.

They are his father, Derry, his stepmother, Sirin, and his half-brother, Rick, and sister, Lily.

Everyone else's breakfast is white and milk, but Roja's place has a whole roast chicken and large pieces of steak.

People who practice martial arts already eat a lot, not to mention that Roja practiced hard last night.

After Roya finished his breakfast, the maid brought a plate of steaming, freshly brewed medicinal soup.

Roja took the medicinal soup and was about to drink it.

Suddenly he found that the medicinal soup this time was slightly different from the previous ones.

There is actually a bloody little snake covered with vines in the medicinal soup—Snake Blood Vine!
Blood snake vine is similar to Cordyceps sinensis. It is a special medicinal material formed by the coexistence of blood snake and snake vine in a parasitic relationship.

The function is to replenish blood, which is very useful for the cultivation of knights.

The downside is that it's very expensive!
A snake blood vine needs seventy or eighty gold coins!

You should know that for an ordinary family of three, if you save a little, you only need three or five gold coins a year.

One Snakeblood Vine is enough for a family of three to live for 20 years.

Even in the Kateli medicine store, the snake blood vine can be regarded as the top treasure.

The maid did not dare and was not qualified to use such a precious material as the Snake Blood Vine.

Then the only possibility is-

"Father, this is?" Roja looked up at Derry.

"Yesterday, steward Jason took away only ordinary medicinal materials. I still have a lot of good things in my collection." Derry laughed.

"I didn't mean that, the snake blood vine didn't..." Roja asked.

"It's Baron Horne's fiftieth birthday gift, right?" Derry interrupted Roja, "Since Roja wants to take the path of knighthood, how can I not support you?"

"I have collected a total of twelve snake blood vines, you can use them to your heart's content."

"Don't feel like it's a waste, all you need to do is get stronger, get stronger, and get stronger again!"

"Become stronger than anyone else!"

After Roja and Derry looked at each other for a few seconds, they nodded deeply and said, "I will, father."

then--

"Father, do you have any other medicinal materials similar to the snake blood vine? If you don't have any at home, you can ask someone to borrow it." Roja asked.

"You..." Derry was speechless immediately, "You really don't know how to be polite at all."

How could Roja be polite?

You must know that this can increase the speed of becoming stronger!

He had forgotten that he could use medicinal materials to speed up his cultivation, so he estimated that it would take half a year to enter the knight realm.

But now with the assistance of various medicinal materials, his cultivation speed will be further accelerated.

He will become stronger at an unimaginable speed!
Roja picked up the medicinal soup made from the snake blood vine and drank it in one gulp.

"Gollum."

It doesn't feel special when you enter.

When the medicinal soup reached the stomach, it ignited with a bang and turned into a furnace that burned blazingly.

Roja's body was burning under the heat, and his skin was completely red.

But Roja didn't feel uncomfortable at all, instead he felt extremely comfortable.

……

Roja lay naked on the bed.

Beside the bed, several masseurs used potions to massage Roja's body.

Under the effect of the potion, under the effect of the snake blood vine that he just drank, Roja felt his whole body warm.

The fatigue brought about by a night of hard work on the swordsmanship of the war elephant is quickly dissipating.

Originally, it was necessary to rest for a day or two before continuing to practice after recuperating the body, but now it only takes an hour or two.

Roja squinted his eyes, thinking while enjoying the massage.

"What should I do next?"

"Study? Or continue to practice war elephant swordsmanship? Or go to Barney witch doctor to visualize and meditate on ancient scrolls?"

"As for the book, I can read it anytime, there is no rush now."

"If you think about it..."

"Since the witch doctor Barney said three days later, let's do it in three days. If you perform too well, it may cause unnecessary trouble."

"Sure enough, do you still want to continue practicing the battle elephant swordsmanship?"

In the following days, Roja's body and mind were immersed in the practice of the war elephant swordsmanship.

Has blood to strengthen the body.

There are various medicines to eliminate fatigue and restore blood.

With the certificate of twin souls, he improved and perfected the swordsmanship of war elephants.

Roja's strength is improving every day, and he is taking a big step towards the knight realm every day.

……

Five days later.

Led by Lord Horn Okoman, the mayor of Silla Town, the team to crusade against the Wolf King set off.

On the day of departure, the streets were crowded with people.

People were watching the team wearing black armor and holding the bear banner of the Okoman family crest as they walked out of Silla Town slowly.

The tall man at the head is particularly conspicuous.

I saw Baron Horn riding a steed at the front of the team, carrying an epee with a blade 1.5 meters wide on his back.

Just looking at it from a distance, you can feel the heavy majesty coming from Baron Horn.

Half a body behind Baron Horn is the strongest knight in Silla Town, the captain of the garrison, and the most proud son of Baron Horn—Luke Okoman.

Luke held his head high, his eyes revealing the excitement of the upcoming battle with a powerful enemy.

The others followed behind them in an orderly manner.

Like a sharp sword, a group of hundreds of people passed through the gate of Xinluo Town and stabbed into the distance.

Seeing that this line gathered the strongest fighting army in Silla Town, the people shouted excitedly.

"Long live Lord Baron Horne—"

"Long live Master Luke—"

People have waited too long for this day.

In the past half a month, the plague of wolves has spread, one village after another has fallen, and even two towns with barons in charge have fallen.

The haze that the wolf disaster may come at any time enveloped the entire Xinluo Town, and despair spread in the hearts of everyone in Xinluo Town.

After a long wait, it finally arrived.

Wait until the day when Baron Horn attacks and kills the wolf king!
"With two senior knights, Baron Horn and Master Luke, is it easy to hunt and kill the mere wolf king?"

"That's right, there are also Captain Raylan, Knight Bob, and the well-known hunter Duff who also has the strength of a knight who came to support him. He also brought more than a dozen quasi-knights and hundreds of swordsmen. It will definitely succeed!"

"The days of worrying and being afraid every day are finally coming to an end."

Contrary to those elated people, Roja's expression was extremely serious.

This battle against the wolf king is as those people said, it will definitely be won.

But winning doesn't mean coming back alive.

How many people in this group can come back alive safe and sound?
He looked at Captain Lei Lun who was leaving with the team, and Roja prayed silently in his heart, "You must come back alive!"
