Chapter 4: guess

It took a while, maybe ten minutes, maybe half an hour.

The intense burning heat had blurred Gray's impression of time. The scalding heat rising from his stomach slowly disappeared, and Gray's body temperature slowly returned to normal.

At this time, his whole body was soaked with sweat, his hair was stuck together with sweat, and his clothes and pants were wet, as if he had been fished out of the water.

At the same time, he felt very tired, as if he had experienced a fierce battle, and every muscle in his body was full of fatigue.

On the contrary, he felt that his strength seemed to have become much stronger. The most obvious feeling was that when he clenched his hands tightly, he no longer felt as empty as before, but felt full of strength.

Also, he felt very hungry now, as if he could eat a whole pig.

Picking up a brass-colored bell with a handle on the coffee table next to him, Gray shook it a few times. Barbara, wearing a black and white maid uniform, opened the door and walked into the bedroom.

As Gray's exclusive maid, apart from taking care of Gray, she is not usually responsible for the daily affairs of the castle. Therefore, she had been staying outside the bedroom just now. When she heard Gray ringing the bell, she immediately opened the door and walked in.

"Master Gray, what are your orders... Ah, what's wrong with you? I, I... I'll ask the pharmacist to come here!"

Seeing Gray who was sweating profusely, Barbara was shocked. She immediately wanted to run to find someone to notify the pharmacist. As a maid who specializes in taking care of Gray's daily life, if something happens to Gray, she will definitely be severely punished and may even be imprisoned. Directly killed with a stick.

In the aristocratic territory, the nobles have the power to kill and seize the lives of civilians.

"No, there's nothing wrong with me. I'm just sweating a little after taking the blood of the blood beast. Just ask someone to prepare bath water for me!"

Gray quickly spoke up to stop him. Although he didn't know the reason for his current change, it was obviously best not to let too many people know, especially Viscount Fergus and others.

"Really no need?"

When Gray stopped her, Barbara still had worry on her face.

"Well, it's probably because my body hasn't fully recovered yet, and I took blood from the blood beast, so I sweat a lot. I just need someone to prepare bath water for me."

Gray stood up and moved his body, indicating that he was fine. Thinking of his inexplicably hungry stomach, he added another sentence.

"Also, ask the kitchen to prepare another breakfast for me. I'm not full."

"Yes, I'll go right away."

Seeing that Gray was indeed fine and still had a good appetite, Barbara breathed a sigh of relief and hurried away.

After a while, she came back, holding a tray in her hand. In the tray, there were three slices of honey bread, a large piece of ham, and a glass of milky white milk.

"Master Gray, bath water is already being prepared in the bathroom. You should be able to go there after your meal."

A folding dining table was set up from the room, Barbara placed the food on the dining table and said to Gray.

During the time when Gray was injured, he had been eating in his bedroom, so there was always a folding dining table in the bedroom.

"knew."

Sitting at the dining table, Gray picked up the knife and silver fork and started eating eagerly. His stomach was empty, as if he had been hungry for several days, which made him really uncomfortable.

He had obviously just finished breakfast less than two hours ago, and now he was hungry again. There was no doubt that this must be one of the "sequelae" of the sudden change.

Barely maintaining his elegance, Gray swept a large piece of ham, three pieces of honey bread, and a glass of milk into his stomach. Gray felt that he was only half full. In order to avoid acting too abnormally, he did not let Barbara come back. He went to get it in the kitchen and went to the bathroom instead.

After taking a hot bath, changing into dry clothes, and putting on his combat uniform, Gray went straight to the training ground. He was eager to know how much his physical fitness had improved "after the mutation."

Because it was almost noon and there was no one else in the training ground, Gray directly started practicing the blood method "Wind Wolf".

Squat halfway with your feet apart, lean forward and bend your body, stretch out your hands, palms down, like a wolf waiting for prey...

Creeping.

lap.

Bite.

Look up to the sky.

More than half an hour later, he practiced the four postures of "Wind Wolf" in sequence.

Then he did not stop practicing like he had done a few days ago, but started a new round of practice. In the end, he stopped breathing heavily only after completing the first posture of crawling.

After taking the towel handed over by the maid Barbara, Gray wiped his sweat and sat on the stone bench in the pavilion, with a hint of joy in his eyes that could barely be concealed.

There is no doubt that his physical fitness has improved significantly.

With the physical strength of a low-level blood warrior who practices the power of bleeding, he can probably practice it twice in a row at one time.

Due to the disappearance of his blood power and the deterioration of his physical fitness, he could barely persist in practicing for the past few days, but now he can hold on to it once and in one posture. Obviously, his physical fitness has undergone significant changes. promote.

"This blood beast blood is really a good thing. You can actually see such a big improvement after taking it just once. Based on this increase, the time it takes me to be promoted to a low-level blood warrior should be greatly shortened."

"Well, let's not say whether there will be such a big improvement next time when I take the blood beast's blood, but the effect of taking the blood beast's blood this time is too significant..."

Thinking of this, Gray couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

The original owner of the body has taken Wind Wolf's blood twice. Although both times of taking it have improved to a certain extent, the effect is definitely not as significant as it is now. One improvement can have such a large range, and the span is so large that even It can no longer be described as remarkable.

"Is it because this body is no longer a low-level blood warrior?"

"No, that's not right. If it were for this reason, it would have been impossible for the two nominal brothers and one sister of this body to take two full years to be promoted to the lower level of blood warriors."

Gray thought about the reason why he was no longer a low-level blood warrior and was physically weak, but he immediately denied it.

The original owner of this body did not have blood beast blood resources before becoming a low-level blood warrior, but the two brothers and one sister born from Viscount Fergus's first wife did have this resource.

But even so, it still took the three of them about two years to upgrade their strength to a lower-level blood warrior. It is precisely for this reason that the original owner of a body that has been promoted to a lower-level blood warrior in one year will be valued by Viscount Fergus. , received in the Viscount's castle.

"Is it because of the qualifications of this body? No, that's not right. No matter how good the qualifications are, it is impossible to improve so much just by taking the blood of a blood beast once."

"The power of blood suddenly disappeared, and then you got such a big improvement just by taking the blood of a blood beast once. Both things can be said to be extremely weird. Are these two things related in some way?"

This made Gray associate it with the sudden disappearance of the power of blood.

In his estimation, the most likely possibility is that some strange and unknown change occurred when he took possession of this body, and it was this change that prompted the current phenomenon.

"Judging from what happened to me, this change may have improved my absorption efficiency of the beneficial components in the blood of the blood wolf."

"No, maybe it's not just the improvement in absorption efficiency. I'm afraid there are other changes. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been hungry again not long after breakfast."

Thinking of his suddenly extremely hungry stomach, Gray felt that the changes in his body were not just an improvement in absorption efficiency, otherwise, his stomach would not have become hungry.

"The body becomes hungry because of insufficient energy supply. The reason why the energy supply is insufficient is because the body's tissues and cells consume a large amount of nutrients in a short period of time, and most of these nutrients consumed in large quantities should be used to improve our health. physical fitness.”

"Speaking of it, I just exercised and now I feel hungry again. How could I become hungry so fast? My blood power has not disappeared, but I need a lot of nutrition to recover, right? No, this conclusion is a bit forced."

Gray once again denied his speculation.

"Before taking blood wolf blood, my food intake was average, and I did not have an urgent need for a large amount of food. Obviously, this craving for large amounts of food only appeared after taking blood wolf blood."

"Speaking of which, the blood of the blood wolf has not been processed in any way. It is considered an active biological tissue. I won't get some kind of change at the biological level by swallowing the blood of the blood wolf, right?"

Although judging from his previous life experience, even if he ate raw food, he would be infected with parasites at most, and he would never allow himself to undergo some kind of biological change.

But this world is not at all the world that can be measured by common sense in the previous life. At least the existence of the Blood Warrior who possesses strange powers is not what the previous life had.

In addition, there is a precedent that taking blood essence can be implanted in blood vessels, so it is not impossible that some kind of biological changes will occur.

"What kind of change is this kind of change at the biological level? It feels like I am undergoing a rapid transformation now, and my body needs a lot of nutritional supplements."

Gray's frown relaxed. He wanted to figure out the changes in his body. I'm afraid he could only draw a complete conclusion through observation in the next few days.

However, although it is unclear what kind of change this change is, there is no doubt that this change is beneficial to him, at least his strength has been greatly improved.
