Monarch of Evernight: The mystery of one, three and five
bsp;When he was still dozens of meters away from where Qianye was staying, the wild wolf slowed down and kept growling lowly in his throat, seeming to be hesitant. However, the usually green and faint wolf's eyes were now dark red, and his aura was much more violent, obviously affected by the Iron Curtain.
After all, the wild wolf could not resist the bloodthirst and hunger, and suddenly rushed towards Qianye!
An unexpected incident suddenly occurred, and dozens of almost invisible blood lines suddenly shot out from Qianye's body, instantly piercing it. The blood lines closed as soon as they appeared, but only the tip of one of them was a little bright red. This wild wolf was obviously very lacking in vitality.
With a plop, the wild wolf fell to the ground and never moved again.
There were dozens of corpses of ferocious beasts around Qianye, lying in a somewhat weird circle, and there were countless poisonous snakes, scorpions and the like. Except for Qianye, there was no life in this forest grassland.
I don’t know how much time passed, but Qianye finally moved and slowly opened his eyes.
He stared blankly at the small patch of dark gray sky revealed at the top of the forest. His mind went blank, but his perceptions spread out in all directions like flowing water, and in an instant he took in all the surrounding scenery within a hundred meters.
Qianye's eyes were as blue as water waves, deeper than before. When the true vision was opened, the world in his eyes changed again, switching to the level of manifesting the Force. But this time I saw a lot more things than before, the distribution and flow of the Force were richer and more delicate, and there seemed to be something else in the sky that I couldn't see clearly.
Qianye tried hard to figure out what those empty shadows were, but his eyesight seemed to be at its limit, and the harder he tried, the blurrier it became.
After being in a daze for a while, Qianye suddenly had a thought in his mind: "Why did I fall asleep?"
He was startled and suddenly woke up completely. He immediately sat up and looked around again. He was startled by the densely packed corpses of beasts and poisonous insects around him. The deaths of these things were obviously related to him. Qianye calmed down and then looked inside to check his body.
Next to the heart, the blood core is floating quietly, and it takes a long time for it to pulse. There are no traces of the wounds suffered last time, and several runes are swimming in and out of the blood core like swimming fish, completely unrestricted.
Qianye is familiar with the ability runes of bloodline concealment and pupil control, and there are two new runes. As soon as his consciousness came into contact, he immediately understood the abilities represented by the two runes. One of them is True Sight, which is now even more powerful. The other rune is very special. It is completely integrated with the blood core and is indistinguishable from each other.
The ability represented by this rune is called Vitality Plunder, which is the innate ability Qianye gained when he was promoted to Blood Viscount.
Once the vitality plunder is activated, it will shoot out hundreds of invisible bloodshot fibers, automatically attack all surrounding creatures, and take the vitality essence back into the body to make up for itself.
This is a powerful ability that integrates offense and defense. Qianye had already seen its power when it was first activated. Even an ordinary viscount could not stop the concentrated shooting of multiple blood lines. In the future, as Qianye's power continues to grow, the number, power and coverage of the blood lines will continue to increase.
Vitality plunder is a powerful tool in group battles, but it is not without limitations. Once used, the blood core needs at least one day to rest before it can accumulate enough energy to activate again. On the other hand, vitality plunder does not distinguish between friend and foe. It must not be activated when one of your own is around, otherwise it will kill both friend and foe.
Now Qianye knows how the corpses of these ferocious beasts and poisonous insects are produced around him. Most of the bloodline talents of the dark race are extremely aggressive, and the weak can eat the strong everywhere. The tyranny and ferocity of the vitality plunder is probably rare in the entire Yongye camp. This is the power that a top bloodline should have.
Qianye stood up and slowly moved his body. After sleeping for many days, his body was like a rusty machine, and even the simplest movements were a bit jerky. However, after a little movement, Qianye immediately discovered that there was volcanic power lurking in every cell of his body, and it would explode at the slightest thought.
He tried to take a step, but almost fell down, and subconsciously reached out to hold on to a big tree next to him. However, the tree seemed to be completely rotten, and it collapsed immediately after being supported by Qianye.
Qianye was startled and felt that the movements of his body and limbs were extremely uncoordinated. He then understood that after the blood core was activated, his body transformation was truly completed. It was useless to be anxious at this moment. He simply opened his stance and practiced military fighting skills in the forest clearing.
After being beaten with fists and kicks, Qianye's body was finally able to move a little, at least it was no longer awkward to even stand and walk. He simply practiced military fighting skills over and over again to adapt to his new body.
After dozens of times, Qianye finally felt that he had roughly mastered his body. He took out Dongyue again and repeatedly practiced basic sword skills. After a few hours, Qianye was completely accustomed to it.
Qianye took out the Force sundial to determine the direction and time, and decided to continue rushing to the original destination. Although it may have been several days now, and it was probably too late to get there, but at least he wanted to see the results. He always felt that something was wrong with the whole thing.
A distance of hundreds of kilometers, no matter how complex the terrain is, is only a day or two for Qianye now. One day later, Qianye arrived at the predetermined location.
The gathering place for the cargo team was also a hidden valley. When Qianye appeared outside the valley, he only saw a mess, with corpses all over the ground, and no one alive.
Although he already knew the result, when he saw it with his own eyes, Qianye still felt angry in his heart. To his surprise, the scene had not been cleared or destroyed. It could be seen that the caravan gathered in the valley exceeded a hundred heavy trucks, and the **** force numbered at least several hundred people, and they were well-equipped. But now the caravan personnel and **** mercenaries have all turned into corpses.
Qianye did not see many signs of fierce fighting inside and outside the valley. Most of the caravan members and mercenary warriors fell down with shock on their faces, unable to even resist.
Qianye frowned and walked through the battlefield. His eyes fell on the corpse of a mercenary. This man seemed to have been a strong man in life, but his face also showed the shock and pain of the moment before his death.
Qianye walked over and inspected the mercenary's body. All the Force nodes on his body still had some Force reactions remaining, and he should have been a ninth-level warrior before his death. Such a person would still be a baron even if placed on the side of the dark race, and could barely stand on the side of the upper nobles. This man should be the leader of the **** team, but judging from the expression on his face, he was extremely frightened and shocked before he died.
What could make a veteran so moved on the battlefield?
Qianye cut open his clothes and inspected them, but found no wounds on the surface of his body. He pondered for a moment, activated the Eye of True Vision, and faintly saw signs of the gathering of dark force in the mercenary's heart.
Qianye swung the short knife and cut open his chest. As a result, he only saw a ball of flesh in the heart area. The organ seemed to have been ground with great force and was broken into pieces.
This kind of power Qianye's heartbeat speeds up slightly. This kind of power is very similar to his pupil control. It penetrates the surface protection of the body and directly attacks the most important organs such as the heart or blood core. However, the power of being able to crush the heart of a ninth-level warrior directly into pulp is much stronger than Qianye's control.
Qianye checked a few more corpses and found that almost all warriors above level eight died of a crushed heart.
After checking the body, Qianye’s eyes fell on the truck again, and he suddenly discovered where the strangeness he had been feeling since entering the valley came from. A large number of intact load-carrying trucks were thrown there. These were good goods that were rarely seen in Yongye. There was no reason to throw them away, unless they were afraid of troublesome modifications and being recognized in the future.
In fact, there are many gray channels hidden in the shadows in Yongye. In the face of such a large sum of money, a little trouble is nothing at all. Besides, the truck can be dispensed with, so why don’t the goods on the truck move?
Qianye jumped onto a truck, reached out to lift a cargo box, opened the lid, and found that it was filled with black stones. Black stone is the most common fuel and the most abundant mineral in the Evernight Continent. It is so common that even ordinary civilians can afford it. Few people are willing to mine smaller mineral veins.
Black stone mines are mined in the upper continent mainly for the associated black crystals and other associated rare mineral deposits.
This freight fleet is luxuriously equipped from heavy trucks to escorts. How can it transport black stones? Qianye turned over the cargo box and poured all the black stones inside to the ground. He didn't see anything special. This box contains black stone.
Qianye opened a few more cargo boxes, and they were all filled with black stones. There was no need to look at the rest. They were definitely filled with black stones, so they were thrown here together with the cargo and the truck.
Qianye looked around and silently estimated the size of the cargo convoy. Using Song Yinnian's cargo convoy as a reference, he found that about half of the combined caravan was filled with black stones. Then at least Ningyuan Heavy Industry's losses on the books have been reduced by half.
At this point, Qianye also realized that something was wrong. Song Zining has always been meticulous in his work. Since there are so many black stones in it, it means that this is probably a trap he set for someone. It's just that the proportion of this bait is heavy enough. Apart from anything else, Song Yinian's cargo team carried genuine force guns.
Who is Song Zining going to deal with, and who can quietly break the hearts of so many masters?
Yetong's figure suddenly appeared in Qianye's heart, but he immediately suppressed it instinctively. He could only tell that Ye Tong came from the Monroe clan from the emblem on her body, but he knew nothing else and didn't want to know.
There were no familiar faces among the corpses at the scene, and Song Yinnian's cargo team was not among them. However, as long as he was not too stupid, he would not come to this meeting point to die again. But since Song Yinian already knew that something was wrong, he should also inform his colleagues. Looking at the scene here, it seems to have no effect at all.
Qianye still had many doubts in his heart, but before meeting Song Zining, they had no answers for the time being.
After a while, he had explored the entire battlefield and was ready to leave. This matter was too involved. It was known that not only the Monro clan of the vampire clan was involved, but also the empire and descendants were also involved. Qianye didn't know where Song Zining was now, and felt vaguely uneasy.
Not far away, there was a sound of arguing ahead, and two groups of people were confronting each other.
There are about dozens of people on one side, and their clothes are mixed. It can be seen that they are a mixture of the Song Dynasty war team, the mercenary group and the expeditionary force. The other side was relatively simple, with only a dozen or so people, all from the White Clan team.
