Sitting in the corner of the tavern, the aboriginal elder called Lar had an excited look on his face.
However, he didn't notice that one of the natives beside him had a slight change in expression as he listened to his story. After that, his expression changed slightly.
Only then did he become excited.
They did not stay in the tavern for too long. After leaving 2 people here to guard the place, Lar and the others walked out.
He led the rest of the people outside, seemingly preparing to call for reinforcements.
"Have they already left?"
On the other side, Adil sensed that the spiritual imprint he had left was getting further and further away, but he did not care too much.
He walked to Saul's room.
Within Saul's room, Yana was sitting on a wooden chair and panting heavily, seeming very tired.
Perhaps because she was getting close to the source of the curse, or perhaps because the seal that Adil set up was about to disappear, the frequency at which the curse was acting up was increasing.
The frequency at which the woman's curse flared up was increasing. Now, it was happening several times a day.
On her forehead, the black mark had already become extremely obvious, and it had already begun to spread downwards.
It extended down to the girl's neck.
"How is it?"
After walking into the room and seeing how weak Yana was, Adil frowned and asked Saul.
"I feel … very uncomfortable."
Beside Saul, Yana's face was pale, and her body was trembling slightly as she spoke in a weak voice.
She felt extremely uncomfortable.
Beside her, Saul's expression was silent as he hugged his child with one arm and held onto Yana's hand with the other.
He tried to give her some warmth.
He stood in front of Yana and roughly checked the condition of her body. Adil took out a few bottles of potions and had her drink them.
Then, he had her lie on the wooden bed.
After drinking the potions, the black curse on her body started to fade, and a purple bloodline power started to activate.
Instinctively, it worked with the seal that was left on her body and suppressed the black curse.
Not long after, the black mark on her neck was suppressed, and she no longer felt so uncomfortable. She hugged herself.
Hugging her child, she fell asleep on the wooden bed.
Looking at this scene, Saul heaved a sigh of relief and looked at Adil gratefully.
"Let's go out and talk. Don't disturb their rest."
Standing in the room, Adil glanced at Yana and her daughter lying on the wooden bed and spoke softly. Then, he took the lead.
He walked out of the room.
Behind him, Saul carefully closed the wooden door and followed him out.
"Her condition is very bad."
Walking out of the door, Adil looked at the scenery in the distance and said, "You should be able to feel it.
As you get closer to the source of the curse, the curse in your body will become active. "
Standing next to Adil and listening to Adil, Saul didn't say anything. He just silently removed the bandage from his forehead.
Come down.
He took out the cloth that had been covering his forehead. On his forehead, a black mark could be clearly seen.
The shape of a snake could be vaguely seen on it.
"As expected, the curse on your body is about to break out."
Looking at the black mark on Saul's forehead, Adil wasn't surprised. He just said in Silence, "He can still maintain stability.
Really? "
"There won't be any problems in a short period of time."
Saul shook his head and then bitterly laughed, "But once I return to my hometown, I might not be able to say for sure.
The time will probably be shorter and shorter. "
"Yana's condition is getting worse and worse."
Adil calmly said, "It's not too late to send her back now."
"She didn't agree."
Saul bitterly laughed and shook his head, "She said that if we succeed, it doesn't matter whether she goes or not. But if we fail, she wants to die with me in my hometown.
But if we fail, she also wants to die with me in my hometown.
In fact, at this point, we have long since given up hope of surviving. "
He said, "I just hope that our child won't follow our old path. It's best if she can live her life peacefully."
”
"Don't worry."
Adil raised his head and gazed into the distance, "She's my student. No matter what, I will take good care of her.
。”
If everything goes well this time, you will be able to personally watch her grow up. "
"I hope so."
Saul shook his head and bitterly smiled.
They chatted for a while before splitting up and returning to their respective rooms.
The next day, when the sky had just brightened, they once again set off and continued their journey.
They hired a spacious carriage in a local town and had a few guides who were familiar with the surrounding terrain.
They set off.
They spent the next few days on the road, all the way until noon on a certain day.
At noon, they stopped to rest in a patch of black soil, preparing to continue their journey after lunch.
In the distance, a few figures began to appear. They were dressed differently and were riding horses, but they were even more ferocious.
They were smaller creatures and quickly ran into the distance.
Behind them were some dark-skinned natives. There seemed to be dozens of them, and they were chasing after them.
。
"It's the Crassus!"
Beside Adil and the others, the guide let out a cry of surprise when he saw the few people who were being chased.
There seemed to be fear in his eyes.
As for Saul and Yana, they simultaneously raised their heads and looked into the distance with expressions of shock on their faces.
"What's going on?" Seeing the figure in the distance, Saul slowly stood up, one hand gripping the longsword at his waist.
He calmly asked, "What's going on?"
"It's the Snake Witch chasing after the Crassus."
Seeing Saul's expression, the guide explained with a look of fear in his eyes, "Sir, these two groups are not good people.
He's not a good person. We should hide as soon as possible! "
"I'm afraid it's too late."
Adil lightly shook his head and said calmly.
In the distance, the natives had evidently discovered Adil and the others. They split up into ten or so groups and headed towards Adil.
Come.
Looking at the natives walking over, the guide's expression changed, becoming ashen.
。
But when he looked at Adil beside him and Saul, who had a cold expression on his face, he stood up with trembling legs.
He walked towards the natives and prepared to negotiate with them.
He shouted into the distance in the local dialect, trying to negotiate with the other party.
However, looking at Adil and the others, the natives evidently had no intentions of negotiating.
As the director shouted, he rushed forward.
Looking at this scene, Adil's expression was calm and did not seem to have any reaction, but the guide's face was ashen.
Saul stood up and glanced at Adil. Seeing that Adil wasn't moving, he pulled out his hand.
He raised his sword and walked towards the aboriginals.
Seeing this scene, the natives had savage smiles on their faces. However, when they saw the sword in Saul's hand, their eyes widened.
It was bright.
The longsword in Saul's hand was a gift from Adil. The whole body was made of the best alchemy materials.
It was extremely precious, making the eyes of these natives who could only use simple and crude weapons shine.
As for Saul, who was charging at them with the longsword, he was just courting death in their eyes.
In this desert where knights and sorcerers didn't exist, there were very few people who could face a dozen native warriors alone.
Unfortunately, Thor was one of them.
A purple light streaked across the sky, accompanied by a scream.
Under the dumbfounded gazes of the few aborigines, Saul's eyes had a hint of purple in them as he held a long silver sword in his hand.
He brandished his silver sword, and a purple sword light exploded, killing the natives who were charging at the front.
This was the power of Saul's bloodline. At this moment, it was highly displayed in battle, giving him the strength comparable to a knight.
Great power.
"This … he is a Crassus!!"
The natives at the back immediately reacted. This person in front of them was the same as the natives they had been chasing before.
He was a Crassus.
The tyranny in their hearts instantly disappeared. However, at the next moment, they looked at each other and continued charging forward.
Opponents.
"Those are our clansmen?"
In the distance, the Crassus who were being chased by the natives stopped when they saw this scene. They seemed a little hesitant.
"What should we do now?"
They all looked at the middle-aged man in the middle, as if asking for his opinion.
The middle-aged man was wrapped in a black robe, and there were two scars on his hardened face. However, his eyes were very pale.
His eyes were sharp. He only thought for a moment before he said without hesitation, "Let's kill our way back!"
Hearing his words, the rest of them did not hesitate and picked up their weapons, urging the mounts in front of them to leave.
He charged forward.
On the other side, Saul's performance continued.
He wielded a sword in one hand and a shield that he had taken from a native in the other. He charged about and smashed his way through the crowd.
Several people fell to the ground.
This kind of terrifying combat strength caused all the natives present to be dumbfounded. They almost didn't dare to believe their eyes.
"This power …"
Among the natives, a middle-aged man with a cold expression and only one eye was shocked when he saw Saul's performance from afar.
"Not only did this Crassus not become weak in the Serpent God's territory, but he can still maintain such great power.
Volume. "
"Didn't Lars say he found a Crassus' direct descendant a few days ago? I'm afraid it's this guy.
Behind them, a sinister voice sounded.
Behind the one-eyed man, a man whose entire body was wrapped in bandages and only his face could be seen walked over from behind and looked at the man.
Seeing Saul's performance, a fearful expression appeared on his face.
He looked at the one-eyed man and asked, "What do we do now?"
"I'm afraid we can only leave this time."
Looking at Saul in the distance, the one-eyed man hesitated for a moment and said, "This Crassus is too powerful.
If it's just the two of us, I'm afraid it'll be a little dangerous. "
"Great, Lars will be here in a few days. When he arrives, we can go together."
He looked at his companion and said.
After a while, looking at Saul and the others in the distance, they quickly left, having no intention of staying.
"Lord Saul!!"
On the other side, a surprised and joyful voice sounded.
The Crassus who had been chased earlier stood beside Saul. The face of the middle-aged man who was leading the group was pale.
The middle-aged man who led the group had a surprised expression on his face, as if he did not expect to see Saul here.
"You are?"
Saul was surprised to be called by the middle-aged man. Then, he raised his head and looked at the middle-aged man seriously.
The middle-aged man in front of him was very tall. He wore a black leather armor and held a short knife in his hand.
His muscles looked very sturdy, and one could tell at a glance that he was a powerful warrior.
"You are Uncle Cecil …"
Looking at the person in front of him, Saul seemed to have thought of something and finally said this name.
On the other side, when the middle-aged man heard Saul say this name, an excited expression appeared on his face.
He strode forward and knelt down on one knee in front of Sol, performing an ancient etiquette.
"You guys, come here!"
Cecil seemed to have thought of something, and shouted to the others behind him, "This is Master Sol, our Carat.
The next successor of the Su Clan! "
Hearing Syl's words, those people's expressions changed. They hurriedly stepped forward and, just like Syl, performed an ancient bow.
Etiquette.
"Get up."
Seeing them like this, Saul smiled bitterly. "We've already reached this point. Our past identities have reached this point.
What's the use now? "
"Come with me."
He looked at the people in front of him and said, then quickly walked to the other side.
"These are your clansmen?"
Walking up to Adil, Adil looked at Saul and asked.
"Yes."
A puzzled expression appeared on Sol's face. "They are indeed my people, and one of them used to be me.
My bodyguard. "
"But I don't know how they escaped the curse."
He looked at Adil and asked in confusion.
He knew very well how difficult it was to deal with a curse.
Before he met Adil, there was only one way for him to avoid the curse, and that was to keep moving away from the curse to weaken it.
。
But even so, as time passed, the curse that had taken root in the depths of his bloodline would continue to erupt.
It could more or less delay time.
Since these people were Saul's clansmen, they naturally had curses in their bodies. They were not far away from the source of the curse.
Under normal circumstances, the curse should have broken out long ago.
Adil was also very curious about this question, but he didn't ask immediately. Instead, he asked Saul to explain
Instead, he had Saul settle them down before asking.
"According to the elders, the curse is actually a leak of the demon king's power."
That night, in the tent, the middle-aged man called Syl gave a bitter smile, his eyes seeming to be somewhat fearful.
There seemed to be some fear in his voice. "Back then, when the curse broke out, the entire sacrificial ground was affected."
