Tome of Blood

"Aw—!"

The fierce wolf howl resounded through the sky.

In the night, a giant wolf surrounded by black mist, with red eyes and a ferocious appearance, surrounded a bare slope.

Or to be more accurate, their scarlet eyes greedily stared at the petite figure on the slope.

Terrifying coercion emanated from the giant wolves.

With their bloody mouths wide open, corrosive acidic saliva flowed out, and their insane and terrifying appearance was enough to make anyone who saw them shudder.

Surrounded by them, on the soil slope.

The petite figure was unmoved.

She turned around slightly and slowly opened her eyes.

Under the night, the two scarlet pupils emitted a faint red light, which was deeper than the madness of the giant wolf.

She raised her hand slightly, and a black phantom erupted from behind her.

The giant wolves roared and rushed towards her, but in the next second, a ghostly black shadow passed through any of the giant wolves that attacked.

The black and red blood mist bloomed like blooming flowers, and the giant wolf's body and head were separated instantly.

They continued to rush out a few steps by inertia, and then fell to the ground one after another, without any breath.

All this happened in an instant, and the petite figure only slightly raised his hands.

Her eyes fell on the corpses of giant wolves, and there was a hint of satisfaction in the depths of her pupils.

She stretched out her hand and ticked it slightly, and in the next second, the bright red blood seemed to be alive, and flew out from the broken neck of the wolf corpse continuously, gathering towards her.

She gently opened her mouth, and the bright red blood was easily swallowed by her like a sucking waterspout.

But with the loss of blood, the fallen giant wolf corpses shrank and dried up one after another, and finally turned into horrible mummies.

In the night sky, the thick clouds gradually dispersed, revealing the bright moonlight, illuminating the petite figure.

Long blond hair, scarlet eyes, coupled with that charming little face and white dress that is incompatible with the surrounding freezing environment, who is not Charlotte who has inspired the power of the blood?

Feeling the abundant magic power in her body and the feeling of fullness after eating, Charlotte showed a satisfied smile.

She lightly touched her stomach, which was somewhat full, and snapped her fingers lightly, and the faint blue flame exploded between the wolf corpses, erasing all traces in an instant.

After finishing all this, Charlotte nodded in satisfaction, then turned around and jumped, turning into a cloud of black mist and disappearing into the darkness.

In a temporary camp.

The black mist slowly gathered, condensing into the appearance of Charlotte.

She landed steadily, looked at the gradually pale sky, put on the fur coat that Halfdan lent her again, and pointed at the sleepy hunter.

The scarlet light flashed, and the sleep magic on the hunter was lifted.

Soon, Halfdan, who was soundly asleep, yawned in a daze, and slowly opened his eyes.

Seeing the girl roasting by the bonfire, he instantly woke up and let out a strange cry:

"Oh! Damn! Lord Tianqi Ensi, I'm sorry! I fell asleep again!"

"Damn it! It's me who is keeping watch at night!"

Looking at the yelling hunter, Charlotte smiled and said:

"It's okay, it doesn't matter who keeps watch at night, I can't sleep anyway."

"But I should have done it! I'm really sorry! It seems that I'm still too lax! I fell asleep during the night watch in the wild! You know, there are often wild wolves around here! Those scary guys are one by one It can kill us, let alone often act collectively! Even the Apocalypse adults must be careful when they encounter them!"

Halfdan said with self-blame and fear.

But after he finished speaking, looking at the orderly camp and the beast-repelling powder that had not been consumed at all, he was stunned again:

"Huh? Master Tianqi Ensi, last night... still didn't encounter any wandering nocturnal beasts?"

Charlotte nodded, and said as it should be:

"Yeah, last night was another Christmas Eve, no monsters attacked the camp."

Huff looked surprised and scratched his head in doubt:

"Strange! I remember that there should be quite a few desolate beasts on this road...why haven't we encountered any of them in the past few days?"

"I didn't meet you, okay?"

Charlotte asked with a smile.

Halfdan hesitated and shook his head:

"That's not true... After all, it's the return journey, and the energy of the God's Bow is almost consumed. It's safer not to meet wild beasts. It's just... You can't even see the weakest wild rabbit on the way, it's really... ...it's kind of weird."

As he spoke, he said with worry on his face:

"Master Tianqi Ensi, we haven't encountered wild beasts for several days in a row, this must be abnormal!"

"There are a lot of desolate beasts in the northern border, and they often go out to look for food after the snowstorm. It's not necessarily a good thing that they haven't encountered anything for such a long time."

"Master Tianqi Ensi, I suggest that we speed up our pace next. Wild beasts have always been sensitive. I wonder if they have sensed some unknown dangers, so they all stay away from here..."

"For example, some more powerful existences, or some disasters that are brewing."

Halfdan said worriedly.

After hearing what he said, Charlotte smiled and said:

"I have no opinion."

"Then let's pack up our things and go, no matter what monsters or disasters are around here, as long as we return to the tribe, we will be safe."

Halfdan said.

After speaking, he immediately packed up his luggage.

Charlotte had nothing to fix.

She really wanted to help, but Halfdan didn't let her do it, or rather, didn't dare to let her do it.

The title of "Son of Apocalypse" is bigger than she imagined, at least for Halfdan, Charlotte felt that in front of her, this hunter was as humble as a servant.

Without her help, she was happy and at ease, and simply distracted herself to check her status.

It has been a week since she woke up, and except for the snowstorm in the first three days, she and Halfdan embarked on a journey to the northern border tribes after the clearing.

Along the way, Charlotte followed Halfdan on the road during the day, and at night, he would bring down the other half and quietly hunt wild beasts to recover his strength.

She didn't encounter any desolate beasts along the way, naturally because she killed them all, or it could be said that those monsters sensed the danger in advance and fled.

And with the constant killing and devouring, after a few days, Charlotte's strength has also returned to the peak before waking up, only one step away from breaking through to the second level of Silver Moon.

However, what troubled Charlotte was that although her strength had recovered, she still hadn't found a way to return to another era.

She also didn't experience deep sleepiness like before waking up, but remained awake all the time.

As for the holy tome of blood in her consciousness, after so many days of repeated inspections after the recovery of power, Charlotte also found the difference from before she woke up.

On the one hand, the divine power of blood contained in the holy tome of blood has disappeared. Charlotte does not know whether it is "traversing" to this era and exhausting all the divine power, or some other reason. In short... the current She can't feel any divine power.

At the same time, the True Ancestor Liberation, which was originally in the "open state", was also re-sealed. At least in her consciousness, the option of realization it represented turned gray.

On the other hand, the crimson sea of ​​stars that can be launched by the summoning of blood disappeared.

Or to be more precise, the original brilliant sea of ​​stars has turned into a misty world, and even Sebastian and Ulster, who signed a blood contract with Charlotte, have no trace of the stars represented by them.

However, although the stars representing the blood race have disappeared, Charlotte can still feel the vague connection deep in her soul.

She could feel that her connection with the two blood relatives and Niss' contract servant was still there, but it seemed to be disturbed or isolated by something, so that it was difficult for her to contact now.

Charlotte didn't know whether it was the influence of time power or some other reason, but what was certain was that as long as she was in this era, she might not be able to contact her family members through the contract.

The only thing that surprised Charlotte were the believers.

Her believers, mainly from the blood wolf tribe, are still there and can be clearly perceived.

It's just that, similar to the blood family, although she can perceive, she can't use the connection of faith to project power or connect with the other party as usual.

To sum it up, part of the power of the Holy Code of Blood has been sealed.

The cheat was sealed, and Charlotte's sense of security was also greatly reduced.

All she can do now is to increase her strength by devouring the blood power of wild beasts as much as possible, and then try to break through Silver Moon in this era.

After packing their luggage, the two embarked on the journey again, and after going on for three days, Charlotte finally arrived at Halfdan's tribe.

This chapter is from last night, tonight and today, tonight's update may be a little later.

The rhythm is a bit slow, I will improve it appropriately later, and end this plot as quickly and steadily as possible.
