Thanks to the blond man treating them as a lasting "healing medicine", he did not kill them.

Although he was covered in bruises, it was not fatal.

"Uncle."

Dana's eyes were red, she was filled with grief for her companion's death and self-blame for not being able to fight back against a strong enemy: "It's because we are incompetent. Not only did we not help, but we became a burden to you, uncle."

Without them, Carl would definitely have an easier time coping.

"never mind."

Carl shook his head:

"Put away Hausman's body. Let's go back to the Raqqa market first. For the next few days... don't come out for the time being."

"Black City is dangerous."

He looked at them and said slowly, "We can't relax just because we have been successful recently. If we meet a master today, we may meet one in the future."

"yes."

The three of them nodded and responded in silence.

Several people were injured, even Carl, but fortunately the journey back was safe and sound.

…………

Fragments of the divine domain.

"Dang..."

Carl dropped the weapon in his hand and walked towards where the medicine was placed.

Huh? "Eh!"

An inexplicable touch made him turn back suddenly.

The rapier that fell on the ground suddenly began to tremble, and wisps of red air floated out of it.

No! It should be sucked out! It was the fragment of the divine domain that was absorbing something from the rapier.

In order to facilitate the refining of potions and the practice of meditation, Carl placed a lot of things here, but nothing like this has ever happened.

As the master of the fragments of the divine domain, Carl suddenly had an epiphany, and immediately waved his hand to summon his own data panel.

Name: Carl (Lord of the Divine Domain Fragment)

Constitution: 0.92 Mental strength: 1.55 Source: 0.7 Occupation: Knight squire, junior wizard apprentice

Everything else was normal. Because of the exotic beast meat and medicine, his physical condition and mental strength were steadily improving.

The source quality that had always been 0 suddenly became 0.7, and more information related to it came to mind.

“Source, the source of all things, the essence of all phenomena.”

Karl murmured, his eyes shining: "As long as there is source essence, you can consume it to increase your strength. Isn't this just adding points?"

"So……"

"How much physical and mental strength can be increased by 0.7 source essence?"

As soon as the thought came to his mind, warm air rushed into his body, and the 0.92 in the physical fitness line on the data panel turned into 0.93.

The source quality, however, is 0.01 less.

"One to one ratio?"

Carl's eyes moved slightly, a chill emerged in his sea of ​​consciousness, and his mental strength directly increased from 1.55 to 1.6.

And the source quality is reduced by 0.1.

"Two to one?"

"Is it possible that mental strength is more special than physical strength?"

Carl frowned, pondered for a moment, and then looked at the physical condition column.

"boom!"

The warm air flow instantly turned into raging waves, and the skin, flesh, bones, and internal organs and blood boiled at this moment.

Constitution: 1!

This is the threshold to becoming a formal knight.

But the airflow did not stop there, and his physical fitness continued to grow stronger.

Physical fitness: 1.1!

Essence: 0.32 "It seems that it is not the special mental power, but the value is below one, and the ratio of Essence increase is one to one."

"Once the value exceeds one, two Essence Elements are required to increase it by one point."

Karl nodded and said, "What a pity!"

"Most of the source essence was absorbed by the fragments of the divine domain, and only a small part was given to me."

good.

Most of the source energy contained in the rapier was consumed by the fragments of the divine domain, and Carl could only use a small part of it.

After the fragments of the divine realm devoured the source material, they also underwent some changes.

Get bigger!

The original area of ​​the divine domain fragment was about thirty to forty square meters.

The space was not small, but after Carl put a lot of sundries in it, it became a bit cramped.

now,

The area has been expanded by five or six square meters, and at first glance it does look much more spacious.

Back to reality.

After losing the blessing of absolute rationality, Carl could no longer hide his excitement. His heart was pounding, his face flushed, and he kept clenching his hands to feel his own strength at the moment.

1.1,

Except for the fact that he has not condensed the seed of life, he is now able to fight against the knight in terms of physical fitness alone.

The improvement in physical fitness also made the originally serious injuries on the body become insignificant.

"Don't get too excited."

Take a deep breath and suppress your restless mood:

"Knights are not only physically strong, but also possess stronger martial arts skills. Some can even release fighting spirit."

"Compared to a formal knight, I am far from being a match."

"but……"

"Condensing the seeds of life should be easier."

There is a method in the breathing method to condense the seed of life. As long as you are physically fit enough, you can try to break through.

According to Carl's speculation, as long as the physical fitness reaches 0.9, it meets the minimum requirements.

However, a breakthrough may succeed or fail. The worse the physical condition, the higher the possibility of failure. Conversely, the stronger the physical condition, the greater the success rate.

Constitution 1.1,

It must be much higher than 0.9.

Moreover, most of the knight's squires would use life potions to break through, and Carl did not intend to make an exception.

After all, if the breakthrough fails, the sequelae will be extremely serious.

With the help of life potions, you can increase the success rate of breakthroughs and save your life when you fail. Why not do it?

Calming himself down, Carl raised the rapier in his hand.

This is a long sword similar to the Western rapier in previous lives. The blade is as thick as a chopstick and the tip is sharp and thin.

Without the blessing of the source essence, it looks no different from before.

"laugh!"

Carl shook his hand and stabbed the rapier into the body of a mouse doing an experiment nearby, piercing it through the heart with ease.

"The sharpness has not changed, but..."

"No more blood sucking!"

Putting away the sword, Carl shook his head regretfully.

In the hands of the blond man, this rapier can heal its own injuries by devouring the blood of others.

now,

It loses this wonderful use.

“Hmm…”

"We can make a cane and hide this sword inside it. It will definitely be a surprise."

Carl put down his rapier and picked up the bruised broadsword, his face showing pain.

This family heirloom weapon is no longer effective.

"It's time to temper it again."

* * * Pit No. 2.

As more and more miners joined in, the negative energy covering the Forgotten City became weaker and weaker, and the blurry city gradually became clearer.

Captain Hal looked at the city below, his eyes narrowed slightly.

I don't know why.

As he got closer and closer to the Forgotten City, a sense of crisis quietly arose in his heart, and it became more and more obvious.

Could it be that...

What scary stuff is in here?

Hal clenched his hands, his expression suddenly solemn: "The Forgotten City holds the secrets of the gods. Now that we have come across it, we must go in and take a look no matter what."

"Headquarters."

At this time, the team leader Barnard hurried over from behind, his face full of ecstasy: "We found several secret passages leading to the Forgotten City under Pit No. 3. I guess they were left by our ancestors."

"oh!"

Hal raised his eyebrows:

"Has anyone entered the Forgotten City before?"

"This..." Bernard was stunned, then shook his head:

"I'm not sure, but those secret passages are not very safe. There are traps and patrolling giant guardians."

"Send someone in to explore the way." Hal said, "When will the slaves arrive?"

"It will be here soon." Bernard said, "Mrs. Die has already bought enough people, and they are sending it over. If it goes fast, it will arrive in seven or eight days."

"Let her do it as soon as possible." Hal said:

"information……"

"It's almost impossible to hide it."

"Yes," Bernard replied.
