Beside the lake, Han Hu's body was lying on the ground. Bernal and Ellis each held a large sharp-mouthed leather bag.
If you look closely, you will find that there are several strange and twisted runes on the surface of the belt, and there is also a small purple-black crystal embedded in it. This is clearly a rune item.
The two inserted their sharp mouth parts into the two largest wounds on Han Hu's body. A trace of blood stimulated the runes, and then a strange scene appeared.
Without any force, the bright red blood of Hanhu surged strangely into the leather bag from the sharp mouth. The originally dry and suffocated leather bag slowly expanded due to the infusion of blood.
"The damn Locke family not only stole the cold tiger cubs, but also made us miss the time to collect the cold tiger's blood."
Ellis said with a look of hatred on his face.
Because the Locke family suddenly appeared and snatched away the cold tiger cubs, they were unable to collect the blood immediately after the death of the female cold tiger. It is conservatively estimated that at least half of the cold tiger's blood was wasted.
That is the blood of a ferocious blood beast. Even if it is not the blood of the Wind Wolf, the effect after taking it is not as significant as the blood of the Wind Wolf, but it will definitely have more than half the effect. He lost more than half of it in vain. It can be imagined that he Hatred for the Locke family.
"It's a pity indeed!"
Bernal frowned, feeling sorry for the wasted blood of the cold tiger, and even more sorry for the lost cub of the cold tiger.
A cold tiger cub, who would become a fierce blood warrior when he matured, was taken away by the Locke family, which made him really unwilling.
Especially since he specially stayed in Giethoorn for more than half a month for this purpose. Now, all these efforts have been in vain.
After a short while, the two leather bags could no longer suck out the blood from Han Hu's corpse. The two men lifted the leather bags and weighed them.
"I'm afraid there are only a hundred copies in total."
After weighing both leather straps, Bernal frowned and said.
"Damn the Locke family!"
Ellis couldn't help but curse again.
With Han Hu's huge body, all the blood in his body can be added up to at least two hundred parts. Now because of the Locke family, only about one hundred parts of blood have been collected. You can imagine the resentment in his heart. .
"Father, they are back!"
There were a large number of footsteps approaching. The two raised their heads and saw Viscount Fergus and the others returning.
"Gray is here too, okay!"
Bernal breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Gray among the group.
He had really complicated feelings about his half-brother. He was envious of his talent, but he was also unwilling to let him take away his right to inherit the title.
But in general, they are blood-related brothers after all, and he is not vicious enough to hope that something will happen to the other person.
"Hmph, that guy won't die so easily!"
Ellis pouted.
He was more jealous and dissatisfied with Gray. He was jealous of the other person's talent and dissatisfied that the other person had taken away Viscount Fergus's care.
"Well, that's...?"
Suddenly, the two of them exclaimed almost at the same time, looking at the "thing" in Gray's hand in disbelief.
It was a small animal that was all white, with black lines mixed in the white. It was about the size of a cat. If it wasn't the cold tiger cub from before, what was it
The two walked over almost at a trot, and looked at the animal in Gray's hand carefully in surprise. After confirming that it was a cold tiger cub, they couldn't help but look surprised.
"Father, you took back the cold tiger cub?!"
"It was taken back, but it was not taken back by me, but by Gray from Morey Locke."
Viscount Fergus was in a good mood and said with a smile.
"What, Gray took it back?"
Bernal's face was full of surprise, and he looked at Gray blankly.
"What, he took it back?"
Ellis was also full of disbelief. At this moment, he felt that Gray, who had always been disgusting no matter how he looked at him, suddenly became more pleasing to the eye.
"We'll discuss the details later. Take Hanhu's body with us, and we'll leave the Red Leaf Forest immediately and return to the castle."
Viscount Fergus smiled and ordered.
"yes."
Everyone responded with smiles on their faces.
Although there were twists and turns along the way, the result was good. The cold tiger cub that was taken away was regained.
A cavalry team of more than a hundred people, protecting the cold tiger cubs and the cold tiger female body, returned in a mighty manner, and finally arrived at Fergus Castle in the evening.
Along the way, there was no more robbery.
It has been protected by more than a hundred cavalry, and among them are four high-ranking blood warriors, Viscount Fergus and Baron Ricardo. Even two or three fierce blood warriors are not sure to snatch the cold tiger cub from such a powerful lineup. Cub.
Because it was getting late, the four Barons Ricardo left after arriving at the castle and having dinner.
When they left, they were in a very good mood, because each of them was assigned ten portions of Hanhu blood and 50 kilograms of Hanhu flesh and blood.
On the market, a portion of the blood of a ferocious blood beast can generally be sold for about 50 gold coins. Although there will be slight fluctuations due to different types of blood beasts, the overall fluctuation will not be too large. Ten portions of cold tiger blood is already Worth 500 gold coins.
Although the price of Hanhu's blood and flesh is not as good as that of Hanhu's blood, it is no problem to sell it for 2 gold coins per pound. Calculated in this way, they have a total income of 600 gold coins today.
With only one person dispatched, 600 gold coins were earned in one day. This transaction was a good deal no matter how you calculated it.
In the evening, in the Purple Jade Hall.
The rune lamp above the head shed bright yellow light, illuminating the more than 100 square meters of hall like daylight.
Around the circular wooden table, Viscount Fergus, Lady Milan, and the five Gray brothers and sisters were all seated.
But everyone's eyes couldn't help but look at Gray curiously, even Mrs. Milan, Caroline, and Sarah who didn't go to the Red Leaf Forest.
They had already heard about what happened in the Red Leaf Forest, and like Viscount Fergus and others, they were equally curious about how Gray could get the cold tiger cub back.
"Ahem."
Viscount Fergus spoke first.
"Gray, as far as I know, Morey Locke should be a mid-level blood warrior now. How did you snatch the cold tiger cub back from him?"
Gray naturally knew that Viscount Fergus was not asking him about the process of snatching the cold tiger cubs, but what method he used to make up for the gap in strength between him and Morey Locke, and take the cold tiger cubs away. Grab it.
He considered it carefully and then spoke.
"Because I am already a mid-level blood warrior!"
When he snatched Hanhu's cub, he showed his strength as a mid-level blood warrior. The Locke family already knew that his strength reached the level of a mid-level blood warrior, so there was no need to hide the matter of the mid-level blood warrior.
Moreover, he did not intend to keep it secret from Viscount Fergus. The reason why he did not tell Viscount Fergus immediately was because he had not yet figured out what kind of changes had happened to his body and was still hesitating.
Even if what happened today had not happened, he would have told Viscount Fergus about his strength after a while.
As the father of this body, Viscount Fergus will not harm him who occupies this body. Of course, the most important thing is that cultivation requires resources. The lack of resource supply will affect his cultivation progress, which is not worth the gain. .
For example, when his strength reaches the level of a fierce blood warrior, he will need to implant higher-level blood beast bloodlines and higher-level blood magic. However, because Viscount Fergus does not know about it, he cannot provide these resources in time. This will cause his strength to stagnate, which is obviously not beneficial.
As for finding these resources by himself, Gray felt that it was quite difficult. Blood magic was extremely confidential in any family. He did not think that he would be unlucky. He just casually browsed the stalls and got the blood magic suitable for his practice.
"What? Are you already... a mid-level blood warrior?"
"How can it be?"
"Why, how could it be... so fast?"
…
Upon hearing Gray's unexpected and reasonable answer, there was first a long silence in the room, and then chaotic exclamations broke out.
Everyone in the room looked at Gray in disbelief.
Mrs. Milan maintained a look of surprise on her face, losing her usual elegance.
Caroline covered her red lips with her hands in a slightly unladylike manner, expressing the shock in her heart at this moment.
Sarah jumped up in surprise, her eyes showing surprise and joy.
Bernal opened his mouth and looked at Gray blankly, but he actually forgot to close it.
Ellis thought he was hallucinating. Looking around, he saw shocked faces.
Viscount Fergus was the calmest, but his slightly trembling hands revealed his mood at the moment.
After taking several deep breaths and suppressing the shock in his heart, Viscount Fergus looked at Gray and asked with a slightly hesitant expression.
"Gray, are you sure you have really reached the mid-level blood warrior? You are not mistaken?"
In his heart, he really hoped that Gray would really reach the mid-level blood warrior, but he was a little worried that Gray might have made a mistake.
"There should be no mistake."
Gray nodded affirmatively.
"I have now started practicing the blood method for the fourth time, and the power of blood is much stronger than when I was a lower blood warrior."
"Then how many times can you use the power of blood in a row now?"
Viscount Fergus asked hurriedly.
"It can be used about ten times in a row."
Gray replied.
"Ten times? Okay, very good, you are indeed a mid-level blood warrior now!"
Fergus breathed a sigh of relief. He could no longer hide the surprise in his heart and burst into a cheerful smile.
