Huo Yan looked suspiciously at Lu Chen and said, "What other ideas do you have?"
Lu Chen said lightly, "Originally, I was not in the mood to become your tribe's priest, but in order to return to the north, I have to think of a way, right? In any case, let's see if your Fire God has taken a liking to me. "
"Fire God?" Huo Yan repeated, still somewhat confused. But perhaps because there was still some hope left, he did not immediately go up to take the animal skin, but instead took a few steps back and looked at Lu Chen. Perhaps in his heart, he still hoped that Lu Chen could become the Black Fire Priest.
After all, the hope of the Black Fire Tribe rising again after many years of decline seemed to be gathered on this human who had mysteriously appeared out of nowhere.
Lu Chen took a deep breath and reached out to feel around his chest. A moment later, the Fire God's Staff appeared in his hand.
Standing at the side, Huo Yan was startled, as if he had thought of something. He wanted to say something, but stopped himself. In the end, he stood at the side and watched silently.
Lu Chen ignored him and only closed his eyes, as if adjusting his emotions in preparation.
Atsu, who was at the side, did not seem to care about this. He looked up at the sky, only to see that the sky was gradually darkening. Stars gradually appeared in the clear night sky, twinkling in the distance. It was as if the gods of the heavens were silently watching the vicissitudes of the human world.
"Awooo …"
Suddenly, a mournful howl came from the side, startling Lu Chen and Huo Yan who had been holding their breath. When they turned their heads to look, they saw a huge black wolf straightening its neck and howling at the night sky.
And in the distant sky, stars twinkled, and on the distant horizon, a bright moon was slowly rising. The world was cold and desolate.
The moon was on the horizon, and the wolf was under the moon. In this vast wilderness, it looked like a boundless painting.
…
Lu Chen retracted his gaze and coincidentally saw that Huo Yan had also turned to look at them. The two of them looked at each other and felt an indescribable sense of awkwardness. Fortunately, they were not the type of people to mind such things.
Lu Chen nodded at him and said, "I'll start."
Huo Yan responded, his expression turning serious once again.
Lu Chen took a deep breath, clenched the Vulcan Staff in his hand, and narrowed his eyes. After a moment, he let out a soft shout, and the power of the black flames hidden deep in his body was activated.
The Fire God's Staff reacted almost immediately. The various totems and runic patterns on the staff slowly shone brightly. At the same time, rays of light shot out.
Although it was not the first time he had seen such a scene, when Huo Yan saw the radiance of the Fire God's Staff, his face still revealed an uncontrollable excitement. His lips moved slightly as he muttered something. No one knew what he was thinking about at that moment.
After a moment, the black flames slowly appeared in Lu Chen's eyes. Immediately after, in the deep night, there seemed to be a distant and ancient roar. It was like the night wind blew past, like an ancient song faintly playing.
The black flames suddenly rose up, bursting out from the man's body. They began to burn all over his flesh and skin. His clothes were not damaged, and they danced and swayed wildly. Under the moonlight, he was like a demon in the darkness, crazy and strange.
Huo Yan's entire body shook, his eyes filled with disbelief. His mouth was so wide that he could not close it. At the same time, the beast skin seemed to have received some kind of stimulation. It suddenly expanded and floated in front of Lu Chen, suddenly unfurling.
Lu Chen's strange eyes, which were burning with black flames, looked over. On the beast skin, there were specks of light that constantly flickered and danced. It was like joy, but also like crazy excitement. One by one, it was displayed in front of Lu Chen's eyes.
Lu Chen's finger stretched out in the black flames and slowly moved down. Then, a voice came from the wind and drilled into Huo Yan's ears.
"There really is a record of witchcraft on it, but … it seems to be incomplete."
"That's right, that's right!" Huo Yan said excitedly. "This is only a remnant of a scroll, but there should be some records on it. What is there?"
Lu Chen, who was wrapped in black flames, glanced at the beast skin remnant that was floating in the air. At the same time, he slowly said, "There's not much left. There are only two, no, three types of witchcraft. One is' Bloodthirsty ', one is' Hellfire ', and the last one is … "
Halfway through his sentence, when he was still missing the name of the last witchcraft, Lu Chen's body suddenly trembled. His words were abruptly cut off. Just like that, he became silent and stared fixedly at the beast skin remnant, not saying anything for a long time.
Huo Yan, who was at the side, was so excited that he was grinding his teeth. Seeing Lu Chen suddenly cut off, he couldn't help but ask, "There's still one more, what is that witchcraft?" After a pause, he was a little worried and said, "Why, could it be that you can't understand it? Or that witchcraft is also incomplete? "
"Neither, I can recognize it." Lu Chen's eyes, which were flashing with black flames, were still staring at the beast skin. His voice seemed to have some strange emotions. It was a little more cold, and also seemed to have some deep hatred. There was even a trace of indescribable blankness.
All kinds of emotions that he wanted to say but didn't want to say were intertwined at this moment, causing his expression to look especially complicated.
"These words, I can recognize them all, including the third witchcraft." Lu Chen paused for a while and said, "This is' Blackflame Curse '."
…
"You really can understand this witchcraft scroll!" Huo Yan excitedly waved his fist, his face was completely overjoyed. For a moment, he didn't notice the somewhat strange expression on Lu Chen's face. Then he couldn't help but step forward and said, "I am not mistaken, you are the priest that the Fire God sent to guide our Black Fire tribe."
Lu Chen didn't immediately answer him, but instead closed his eyes. After a while, the black flames surrounding his body slowly weakened and gradually retracted back into his flesh.
…
When Lu Chen opened his eyes again, the black flames had completely disappeared.
The beast skin floating in the air trembled for a moment, then slowly floated down.
Lu Chen stretched out his hand to catch it, then turned around and handed it to Huo Yan. Huo Yan shook his head and said, "This beast skin is originally a sacred inheritance belonging to the priest. It's just that our tribe hasn't had a priest for many years, so it was in my care. Now that you are the priest recognized by the Fire God, this scroll should be given to you. "
Lu Chen was silent for a moment, then he raised the Fire God's Staff in his hand and said, "Including this?"
This time, Huo Yan hesitated for a moment, but very quickly nodded very firmly and said, "Including this Fire God's Staff!"
Lu Chen looked deeply at this barbarian, then nodded and said, "Okay."
…
"Although there are three witchcraft on this scroll, to be honest, I don't think that even if I learn these things, I will be able to bear the hope of the Black Fire tribe's rise by myself." As they continued on their journey, Lu Chen said to Huo Yan.
Huo Yan's face didn't show any signs of surprise, he looked very calm and said, "I know."
Lu Chen was a little surprised. He looked at him and said, "You're actually not anxious?"
Huo Yan smiled, still looking a little helpless. He said, "Back then, the strongest part of our tribe's inheritance was actually left in the hands of our brothers who couldn't return to the ancestral land in the Land of Chaos. What we have now is probably not even ten percent of what we had back then."
Lu Chen nodded and said, "'Bloodlust' is a support spell. After I use it, I can stimulate the power of the Black Fire tribe's warriors and increase their battle power by more than double in a short period of time. But after that, there will be damage to the body. The more potential power that is stimulated, the more serious the damage will be. In the most serious cases, there is a possibility of death."
Huo Yan didn't care about the last sentence. He nodded heavily and said with a face full of excitement, "This is the witchcraft that our tribe has been looking forward to."
Lu Chen looked at him strangely and continued, "The second 'Hellfire' is a powerful spell that directly attacks the enemy. It can engulf and burn an area in a short period of time, but it can't be used for long unless it is supported by powerful spiritual power."
Huo Yan nodded repeatedly.
Lu Chen continued, "As for the third 'Blackflame Curse', this kind of curse can't be used immediately, but it entangles the soul. Those who are hit by it will almost certainly die. It is a very terrifying curse."
Huo Yan made an "oh" sound. It seemed that he didn't care much about the third witchcraft. His mind was probably on how to increase the battle power of the entire Black Fire tribe.
Lu Chen looked at him and wanted to say something, but then he held it in.
"Although it doesn't seem to be much now, with these witchcraft, the battle power of our Black Fire tribe will definitely rise to a new level. At least in the Northern Wilderness, the Thunder Lizard, Divine Wood, and Ghost Fox tribes, who were originally about the same strength as us, will definitely not be our match."
Huo Yan looked very excited, full of anticipation and hope for the future.
Lu Chen thought for a moment and asked him, "Then do you know more witchcraft? The more the merrier. "
"Of course." Huo Yan nodded, but there was a hint of a bitter smile on his face. He said, "But we really only have this little on hand. Even this was preserved by our ancestors with their lives. As for the other small tribes, they don't even have this little heritage. "
At this point, he seemed to have suddenly thought of something and said to Lu Chen, "Originally, our Black Fire tribe was very strong in the area of witchcraft, but most of the inheritance was indeed in the hands of our brothers. You came from the North. When you passed through the Disorienting Lands, did you hear of the Black Fire tribe there? Or perhaps, a tribe similar to our tribe? "
Lu Chen's expression changed slightly. He looked at Huo Yan, only to see Huo Yan looking at him with a face full of enthusiasm and hope.
At that moment, countless figures and scenes flashed through Lu Chen's mind. The soaring flames, the corpses of the dead, and the painful and ferocious memories of the past flashed past one by one.
But after a moment, he smiled at Huo Yan and said calmly, "I've never heard of it."
