Lord of War

The sun at noon in winter should be the most warming moment of the day, but today is destined to be unable to make people feel this kind of warmth.

Even if the blazing flames have completely turned into a mountain fire, almost completely igniting most of the mountain forest, this heat wave from the outside body temperature still cannot dispel the chill rising from the heart.

Singon, at this time, has been completely dominated by fear.

He is a follower belonging to the Aite family.

Of course, it is not the kind of old man who has been in the Aite family for a long time, but a young man who was spotted at the martial arts festival and obtained the olive branch of the Aite family—compared to the several people that the Aite family currently supports. The next gold powerhouse, he is only twenty-seven or eight years old, so he can be regarded as a standout among the crowd. Assessed from the perspective of potential, he has a great possibility to step into the realm of high-level gold before the age of forty, but this is probably the limit of his life.

But in a second-class kingdom, the existence of a high-ranking gold powerhouse still has a high status.

Following the other strong members of the Aite family to participate in this conspiracy against the Duke of the Void this time, Xin Geen was quite excited at the beginning. Because he had gone to the mansion of the Duke of the Void to visit the rumored duke before, hoping to work under his command, but in the end, let alone seeing the duke, he was not even qualified to step into his mansion. Singorn has always resented this.

So when his team finally caught up with the fleeing Sean and Cecilia at noon, he was filled with ecstasy. He couldn't wait to see the look of despair on the Duke of the Void, and then he could arrogantly laugh at how stupid it was for the other party to ignore his own effectiveness.

but.

His ignorant and childish fantasy lasted for less than a minute before it was completely shattered in front of the cruel reality.

How strong Sean and Cecilia are, Black Eagle, Northon, and the guest of the Sebarox family have already experienced last night-the result of two deaths and one injury, this time At that time, he had already appeared in the studies of many nobles who participated in this conspiracy. For these nobles, even if they wanted to recall these subordinates at this time, it was completely impossible, because when they sent out these family followers, all the command power had already fallen to the Finnstein family. In the hands of the Finnstein family, there is no way they would return these powerful people when the Finnstein family suffered such a heavy loss.

Therefore, after Xin Geen's team launched the first attack with sneak attack tactics, they did not gain a huge advantage as imagined. Instead, in the first round of attack, they lost a companion—— It was directly resolved by Xiao En with his astonishing reaction speed at the moment of launching the sneak attack. After that, Singen and the other three, who had only two companions left, were completely at a disadvantage.

And this kind of stalemate was completely defeated by the cruel reality one minute after the two sides played against each other, and was already on the verge of collapse.

...

Sean pulled the Dark Lord from the chest of an enemy. His attack was still as fierce as before. This sword directly pierced into the heart of the next gold powerhouse, killing it completely—but it didn't shatter his heart with a grudge attack, but with a magic attack. Yin Xuemei's method of absorbing essence and blood killed him.

So when Xiao En pulled out his sword, the black blade was still as smooth as before, and it wasn't stained with even a trace of blood.

However, the corpse whose essence and blood had been drained turned into an ugly corpse like a mummy, and slowly fell to the ground in front of Xiao En.

Cecilia, who was next to him, added a flower of flame in a very timely manner, completely igniting the corpse, and removing these unnecessary traces for Sean. Although Cecilia didn't know why Sean suddenly had such an attack method similar to that of a vampire, she knew very well that such a way of absorbing blood essence was not allowed in the human world, which was why the vampires The surface of the earth will become heretical creatures second only to demons and devils.

Sean glanced at Singen, the only survivor of the team that raided him, and then twitched his lips slightly: "You guys really picked the wrong time to show up."

"You...you are... blood race..."

"I'm human." Sean shrugged his shoulders with a calm expression, and didn't care about the panic on Singen's face. "It's just that I have mastered an attack technique similar to blood race. This technique was originally my It's quite repulsive... At least I don't want to use it unless it's necessary. But unfortunately, the current situation is exactly when it's necessary. If you show up an hour or two later and give me more time to recover, then I actually don’t need to use this method.”

Extracting blood essence is a method used by the blood race to strengthen themselves and quickly recover their physical strength and injuries.

And the blood-sucking effect provided by the magic seal. Blood Charm to Xiao En, in this real world, happens to be this kind of recovery technique of the vampire. In fact, when Sean used this ability on Northon for the first time last night, he had already realized the trouble this ability would bring him. However, it has to be admitted that, in a situation where exhaustion is relatively easy, this ability has become Sean's only hole card that can carry out wars of attrition and long-term battles.

However, after absorbing the blood essence of two low-ranking gold powerhouses, Sean also discovered a problem, that is, the degree of blood essence and blood recovery provided by these two low-ranking gold powerhouses is far inferior to yesterday's. Late Northon. After evaluating it in his heart with Xiao En's understanding ability, he found that the blood essence of almost five low-ranking gold powerhouses could be equivalent to the blood essence of one high-ranking gold powerhouse.

However, the recovery of a high-ranking gold powerhouse is extremely impressive. The blood essence absorbed from Northon yesterday allowed Xiao En to recover almost to the state of his heyday. If it weren't for the physical recovery provided by Northon's blood essence, Sean would never have been a match for the Black Hawk. Based on this guess, Xiao En felt that if the level of the magic seal and blood charm was raised, it might be able to activate new special abilities.

Slightly moving his wrist, Sean walked towards Singen step by step.

Every time he took a step forward, Singen's expression became even uglier. He desperately wanted to retreat, but for some reason, his hands and feet seemed to be filled with lead and became extremely heavy. Just moving back a little bit would almost exhaust all the strength in his whole body.

"I remember you." Sean looked at Singen, and suddenly said, "Your name is Singen... right? I remember that you seemed to have gone to the Duke's mansion to see you before."

"Yes, yes... Your Excellency the Duke." Singon was stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly said as if hugging a life-saving straw, "My Excellency, I really don't know who the Sebarox family wants to deal with. It's you! If I knew it was you, then no matter what, I wouldn't dare to participate in this battle!"

Sean smiled noncommittally about Singen's words, and then continued: "Do you know why I rejected you at the beginning?"

Singen was still a little dazed, but he shook his head honestly: "No... I don't know."

"The lower level gold is your limit. You will never be able to step into the upper level gold in this life, let alone the sanctuary." Xiao En said calmly, with the expression on his face still indifferent, "Perhaps others will think that you are young now It is the lower-rank gold, who is a promising person, but they don't know enough about you.... To become a high-rank gold powerhouse, you don't have to be young, you have to have enough courage, action and will , and you don’t have all of these things.”

Hearing Xiao En's words, Xin Geen's face flushed red, obviously very dissatisfied. However, because of this sudden surge of qi and blood, it was rare for Singen to suddenly recover some strength. This recovery of strength and the temporary offset of fear made him feel a little unbelievable, but he still stood up quickly . But what he did next still made Sean shake his head, because Xin Geen didn't think about fighting Sean, but turned around and ran away as soon as he was able to act.

How could a person like this who was completely destroyed by fear and didn't even have the courage to resist become a high-ranking gold powerhouse?

After shaking his head slightly, Sean didn't show any mercy—even if someone like this was let go, it wouldn't have much impact on Sean, but unfortunately, the other party had already seen Sean cast the magic seal. Blood Charm , in order to prevent the other party from talking nonsense and causing unnecessary trouble to himself, so Sean will never let this person go.

But when Sean swung his sword to attack, and was about to kill the opponent completely with one sword, suddenly there was a black shadow rushing towards Sean.

Judging from the aura emanating from this black shadow, Sean immediately knew that this person was a high-ranking gold powerhouse. Although the two sides hadn't formally fought each other, such a strong and almost substantive atmosphere let Xiao En know that this person's strength would never be inferior to Northon's.

Under such circumstances, Sean naturally didn't dare to continue chasing and killing Singen, so he could only turn around and wave his sword to block the sudden blow from the black shadow.

After the weapons of the Black King and Sombra collided with each other, a wave of air suddenly burst out around Xiao En and Sombra. The strong air flow was like a tenth-level typhoon, and it actually burned a few tens of meters away. The burning flames were almost extinguished by blowing.

But Xiao En, under this hasty confrontation, took a few steps back before finally letting go of the huge force from the other party, and barely stabilized his figure. (to be continued)【】
