"What did you get someone to bring so much snake meat for?" Looking at Adil, Dill's curious voice sounded from the side.
He looked at the large bag of snake meat in Adil's hand and watched Adil process it there, looking a little curious.
Adil inserted a peeled Green-eyed Snake in his hand and put it on the grill, then turned to him and said, "I used to eat this kind of snake meat in the wild and thought it tasted good, so I got someone to bring more."
"Would you like to try it?" He smiled and gestured to Dill next to him.
"Okay." Dill laughed and took a skewer of roasted snake meat from Adil's hand and took a bite.
In an instant, his eyes lit up and he raised his hand to Adil. "It really tastes good."
The lunch was over quickly.
Adil didn't waste the snake meat. He roasted seven or eight of them at once and ate them all.
The physical fitness of a knight apprentice was far superior to that of an ordinary person, but relatively speaking, their appetite was often larger. Moreover, Adil was now growing and needed to eat more nutritious food.
Of course, compared to these, the most important thing was that these snake meat also contained trace amounts of beneficial ingredients. According to the chip's detection, long-term consumption could also increase some physical strength, so naturally, it couldn't be wasted.
After lunch, Adil walked to the side, took out a green snake stone, put it in his mouth, chewed for a while, and swallowed it directly.
Although the green snake stone was like a stone, it was far less hard than a stone and could be easily bitten.
However, the taste was not flattering. With a strong bitter smell, it would cause people to vomit after a long time, and it was difficult to swallow.
Adil frowned, resisted the nausea and swallowed it.
After swallowing a piece of snake stone, in an instant, an extremely uncomfortable feeling rose in Adil's body. At first, it was weak, but then it became stronger and stronger, with a faint heat, making him feel as if he was being burned by fire.
After a while, this feeling slowly subsided, and the originally intense discomfort gradually turned into a kind of extreme soreness that seemed to have a paralyzing effect.
Adil resisted this feeling and took out another Snake Stone from the medicine bag hanging on his waist with his right hand and put it in his mouth.
Then, the familiar feeling appeared again, and it was much stronger than before.
This process continued for a long time until the mechanical voice rang in his mind again. Only then did Adil stop the process.
"Ding! The main body's rejection reaction has reached its limit. Swallowing it again will lead to irreversible organ failure. "
Sensing the warning in the A.I. Chip's voice, Adil stopped and allowed the A.I. Chip to examine his body's condition.
In an instant, the A.I. Chip in his mind reacted, and his body's data appeared before his eyes.
Name: Adil Farcus. Strength: 2.4 (3.1) Agility: 2.3 (2.9) Constitution: 2.5 (3) Status: Weak, organs slightly damaged … …
Compared to 4 months ago, Adil's current attributes were much more beautiful. Not only did the peak values of his strength and vitality exceed 3, even his originally weakest attribute, agility, had reached around 2.9. His overall battle prowess was much higher than it was a few months ago.
The reason why he could have such a huge improvement was inseparable from Adil's hard work during this period of time.
In these 4 months, Adil had never slacked off in his Knights' breathing technique training. In addition, other than the Snake Stone from before, Adil had found quite a few other materials that could be of use to him in the vicinity. All of them had different degrees of effects, which was why his body's attributes had reached its current level in such a short period of time.
"The Snake Stone is about to lose its effect as well."
Feeling the increase in his body's attributes, Adil felt a little helpless.
Out of all the materials that he had used before, the Snake Stone could be considered as the one with the best effect. Even after using it for 4 months, it was still able to have a certain effect on him.
However, along with the increase in his body's attributes, his body's adaptability and tolerance towards the Snake Stone was also getting stronger and stronger. Right now, the effect was getting weaker and weaker, to the point that it was about to lose its effect.
"According to this trend, after a few tens of times, the Snake Stone will lose its effect."
This thought flashed through Adil's mind.
Because he had just used a large amount of Snake Stone to stimulate his body, his body was still in a weak and numb state.
Fortunately, there was a resting camp in the surroundings. Not only were there a large amount of guards, there were also many Knight apprentices like Adil. Therefore, there was no need to worry about his safety during this period of time.
After standing at the same place for a while and waiting for his body's condition to slightly improve, Adil endured the strong feeling of discomfort in his body and walked towards the camp behind him.
Walking into the camp, Adil's brows wrinkled.
At the center of the camp, a dozen or so corpses were placed there in Silence, their appearances looked a bit miserable.
Most of these people were ordinary guards, but there were also a few Knight apprentices. They were all familiar faces from Adil's memory. At this moment, they were lying quietly on the ground, with a linen cloth draped over their bodies to cover their corpses.
Around these corpses, no one else made a sound. The atmosphere was quiet and depressing for a while.
"What happened just now?"
Adil walked to the side of Deere, who was sitting in front of him, and looked at his somewhat gloomy face. "Why did so many people die all of a sudden?"
In front, Deere was stunned when he heard the voice. When he turned around and saw Adil, his gloomy face became a little more normal.
"There was a situation in front. Aradi and the others were ambushed in front. More than 50 people were all dead, and only a few corpses were found."
Speaking of this, Deere's face was a little ugly. He pointed at the corpses, looking a little emotional.
Hearing this news, Adil couldn't help but frown, but he still maintained a calm expression on his face. "Did you find out who did it?"
"It's not too clear yet, but it is said that looking at the traces at the scene, it is a bit like the style of the orcs. Maybe some orcs from the frontline wandered over and took the opportunity to ambush Aradi and the others." Deere shook his head and said.
"Orcs?" Adil subconsciously muttered to himself, then turned to look at the corpses.
Although there was a piece of linen covering them, with Adil's keen eyesight and observation ability, he could still see the miserable state of these corpses.
The leather armor and clothes that they were originally wearing were all taken away as spoils of war. Judging from the exposed corners of the corpses, these corpses were obviously not very complete. Some of the corpses' entire heads looked like they were eaten by wild beasts after death.
After being eaten by wild beasts, all kinds of traces that might have been left on the corpses were basically destroyed. Now, he could only speculate about the situation at that time based on some clues.
The only thing that Adil could see was that these corpses died about five or six days ago, and the time of death was about the same. They were killed by the same group of people.
If he wanted to know more information, he could only get close to these corpses or even dissect them himself.
Adil lowered his head to think about the possibility of dissecting the corpses. Deere looked at him and thought that he was worried about something, so he couldn't help but say, "Adil, there is no need to worry about anything."
"When our people found these corpses, we had already sent people to Sir Poria's castle. I believe there will be reinforcements soon. There is no need to worry at all."
Speaking until here, Deere lowered his voice and said mysteriously, "Also, I just heard the news that this time there is likely to be a real knight coming."
"Knight?" Subconsciously, Adil's heart moved. He couldn't help but turn around and ask, "Is there any definite news? Which lord will be leading the team? "
"I'm not sure yet, but there are only a few lords left in the castle right now." Deere said casually.
"That's true." Adil nodded.
Knights had a very high status in this world. Not only were they powerful, but they were also very few in number. Even Count Poria only had a few subordinates. Most of them had been sent to the frontlines to fight against the orcs.
As far as Adil knew, there were only three knights left in the castle. This time, it should be one of them leading the team.
Thinking of this, Adil's eyes showed a faint look of anticipation.
It had been almost half a year since Adil had transmigrated to this world.
In this half a year, even though his physical fitness had improved a lot, Adil still had no idea how to activate the Seed of Life. He felt like he had power but nowhere to use it.
The Knights' breathing technique only had methods to stimulate one's life force and improve one's physical fitness, but there was no accurate description of how to activate the Seed of Life.
In this situation, Adil urgently needed to find a real knight. Whether it was directly asking the other party for guidance or observing through the chip, he should be able to gain something.
With this kind of anticipation, a few days passed.
Seven days later, outside the quiet camp, a long group of people came from afar, arriving close to noon.
There were about 30 to 40 people in this team, all of them wearing leather armor and holding standard weapons in their hands. The formation they walked in was also more neat and tidy. They walked in a neat formation, looking much more elite than ordinary guards.
The most eye-catching one was the person at the front of the group.
It was a middle-aged man wearing light black armor. He rode a white horse and had a red cloak draped over his back. Coupled with his resolute and mighty face and golden hair, he looked mighty and extraordinary.
His expression was cold and resolute as he looked at the group in front of the camp and nodded slightly. He then slowly walked forward with the soldiers behind him.
