Because of some scruples about the pursuit and revenge of the ogres, Wu Ming and Karitan immediately led the team to retreat a certain distance after they met, hid, and quietly waited for the ogre army to disperse.
That copycat army was a union of many tribes, barely relying on the prestige of ogre wizards. Now that the wizards have fallen and there is no leader, and the food in the vicinity is gradually decreasing, the contradictions will inevitably become more prominent. Sooner or later.
After all, ogres are not warm-hearted guys. In their eyes, all creatures standing on two feet can be regarded as food!
…
"Carita, look at these..."
Beside the fire, Wu Ming handed over the booty he had looted from the wizard to Carita.
"The wizard's relic?"
Carita's eyes lit up, and she couldn't wait to identify it.
"This is a powder made from the teeth and flesh of a beast. It is a material for casting spells!"
She first took out a black bottle, opened it, smelled it, and made a conclusion.
Seeing this scene, Wu Ming was a little speechless. If it was poison, wouldn't this woman be finished immediately
But thinking that Karita is also an expert in this field, she should have been prepared, so she watched quietly.
Facts have proved that most of the things on this wizard are spell-casting materials and medicinal materials extracted from beasts or plants.
However, there is also a bottle of blood-red potion. According to Carita's judgment, the power of witchcraft is added to it, which can improve the recovery ability and speed of an ogre. Of course, it should also be applicable to humans. The effect is similar to that of holy oil baptism. quite.
But even Ava, who is the most courageous, dare not try anything when he sees the blood-red color.
"Master... Fortunately, you have already killed this wizard!"
Karitan said in a relaxed tone: "Otherwise, after mastering this technique, this ogre wizard will definitely be able to continuously create ogre warriors!"
Even Jack couldn't help but feel his scalp tingle when he thought of the scene of a large number of ogres charging with the strength of knights.
"Master, you saved the entire Fengying Plain!"
Beatrice looked at Wu Ming with admiration.
"It's a pity that there are no medals, flowers and honors..."
Wu Ming smiled and took the medicine bottle.
In this world, any potion with special effects must be related to mysticism.
It's like holy oil for knights, which requires blue blood, but the potion prepared by ogre wizard, although the material is more common than holy oil, but it needs to use spells in the production!
This requirement alone is enough to exclude ninety-nine percent of the pharmacists in the entire Seer continent from the gate.
"Wow!"
Immediately, Karitan opened the last earthen jar, her eyes lit up, and she exclaimed: "Black blood leech powder! Such a big jar?"
She looked at the black powder as if she saw piles of gold.
"Is this powder so hard to come by?"
Wu Ming asked.
"My lord... This powder must be obtained by baking from a very rare leech. After complicated procedures, even my family can only get a small bottle. It has been ten years of hard work..."
Karitan looked complicated: "This big pot is probably the accumulation of all the ogre tribes for hundreds of years!"
"What's the use of that?"
"It increases the success rate of many potions, and..."
Karitan bit her lips: "It is also necessary to perform certain voodoo spells. There is a secret ritual among us witches. Maybe I can pass it and break through my own limit..."
Karitan is just an ordinary person who has the knowledge of witches, but has not inherited the abilities of witches. Breaking through the limit naturally obtains the power of witches and becomes a spellcaster.
"Very well, you didn't lie to me!"
Wu Ming's eyes flickered.
Caritan looked at Beatrice and Ava who were ready to go, and smiled wryly in her heart.
She had known for a long time that this lord had a unique ability to distinguish lies, not to mention that she was just a woman with no strength at this time, so what could she use to resist
Poisoned? I'm afraid that before she made a small move, the lord's long sword had already cut her neck open.
Besides, through these years of observation, she also knew that the lord, although not a good person, was not a bad guy, at least compared to other nobles, he still paid much attention to his promises.
"Now, it is my trophy, what price are you willing to pay to get it?"
Wu Ming looked at Carita with interest.
"everything!"
The descendant of the witch took a deep breath and replied in a heavy tone.
"everything?"
Wu Ming seemed a little puzzled: "This is too general!"
"I am willing to swear the witch's blood oath to serve you and your family for a hundred years. You not only own my body, but also my soul, my master!"
Carita knelt down on one knee and said in a strange tone.
"a hundred years?"
Wu Ming glanced at Karitan playfully, and when she was feeling uneasy, he smiled calmly and said, "Okay! You can swear now!"
After getting his permission, Carita seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, then took out a golden dagger, cut her own wrist, and painted a strange and complicated mark on her forehead with blood.
"I swear by my blood, I will be loyal to my master, use my knowledge and strength to serve him, and not violate any reasonable request, until the time limit comes!"
She murmured, and handed the dagger to Wu Ming: "Please leave a mark on your servant and complete the entire ceremony!"
From the beginning of the ceremony, Beatrice and the others felt a chill.
Even though there was a raging fire burning beside them, for them, it was as if they suddenly came into the ice and snow without any clothes on. The trembling and chill that came from their souls made each of them almost hold their breath. Breathing, quietly watching the two people on the field.
"Carita, is that your real name?"
Holding the golden dagger in his hand, Wu Ming suddenly asked with a smile.
Although this woman still kept a hand in the contract, it was enough for him.
Moreover, based on the nature of his soul, even if the witch leaves room, it is hard to say which one will be cheaper in the end.
"This is my real name. If I break my oath, my soul will fall into the Nine Hells and be burned by fire forever."
Carita said solemnly.
"In the name of William Wallace, I accept you as my servant, you pledge your allegiance to me, I protect you, and give you advanced reliance!"
Wu Ming said softly, and tapped the center of the mark on Karitan's forehead with a dagger.
Click!
In the next moment, Karitan was trembling and a little absent-minded.
Through the channel of the oath, she felt that her soul was instantly connected with an indescribable and radiant existence.
The power of the other party is so strong that she can't give birth to any thoughts of resistance at all. The nature of inequality makes the leeway and tricks she left in the contract immediately grasped by the other party, completely shifting to the great The presence.
If the other party is a devil, I am afraid that through this contract, her soul can be harvested now!
"My master!"
Karitan's voice trembled, and all the illusions disappeared. She looked at the young master in front of her, but saluted with the most solemn gesture.
"This can of black blood leech powder is all yours!"
Wu Ming waved his hand. He has always been very generous to the servants he has completely subdued: "If you are promoted, how long will it take?"
Carita held the earthen pot and thought about it again: "About a hundred days or so!"
"That's too long, you'd better wait until we return to the territory before you perform the ceremony!"
Wu Ming frowned and made a decision.
"Starting tomorrow, we will go all out to explore the Eagle's Nest Mountains!"
…
Under the Eagle's Nest Mountains.
The previous ogre city had been completely abandoned, and a large number of wooden walls had collapsed, with traces of battle and fire on them.
When Wu Ming and his party came here, their faces were filled with amazement.
"A barracks of ogres?"
Ava exclaimed: "If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I would have thought I was dreaming!"
"An ogre is an ogre! Once they lose the leadership of the wizard, they are no different from a pack of beasts, no! They are worse than beasts!"
Beatrice looked at the pile of ashes and the thrown bones beside her, with a nauseous look on her face.
"It seems that there were indeed many firefights among them, and the losers were unlucky enough to be the food of the victors... After destroying everything they could see, they scattered all over the wilderness together..."
Seeing this scene, Jack heaved a sigh of relief.
Knowing that although the people of the wilderness and innocent travelers will still suffer from ogres, the terrible future of a large army attacking the city has been completely prevented.
"Now, even if there are still sporadic ogres wandering in the Eagle's Nest Mountains, they will not be our opponents..."
Wu Ming looked at the towering mountains, but his eyes were full of heat: "Start searching for the ruins with all your strength!"
The legendary gift from the five ancient kings, the treasure against the giant snake, the power of all peoples.
He has waited too long for this extraordinary seed.
Today, when the Fengying Plain is about to fall into chaos, it is even more important to obtain a strong support.
The whole world has been divided for too long and has been in chaos for too long.
Once it can be unified, how much benefit will the acquired luck and force bring to the deity
There is also the giant snake that created the world and is about to destroy it in the prophecy.
What kind of personality and power should it possess to create such an incredible cosmic core in the world of Searle
It is precisely because of this infinite universe, infinite possibilities, and infinite splendor that it attracts him to pursue, transcend, and finally obtain eternity!
