"Mmm... um, the taste is ok..." The teeth easily crushed the leaves and rhizomes. From the chewing sound of "Kazkaz", a sap with a strong plant fragrance filled the mouth.
"Unique flavor, crisp and a little sweet." When the whole herb was greedily swallowed by Roy, the esophagus and stomach returned another special taste - the sweetness of blood.
The aftertaste is long, lingering on the lips and tongue.
Roy frowned, his fingers wiped off the juice overflowing from the corners of his mouth, and he saw a dazzling blood red, like human blood, with a slight warmth.
He frowned.
"How does it feel to swallow a life?"
He closed his eyes and carefully felt the changes in his body. A strange heat flow flashed through his limbs and disappeared in an instant.
There is a little more in the body, but not enough to make a difference.
However, when he turned his attention to the personal template, the attributes and occupation were the same as before, and there was a row of faint green handwriting in the skill template, which kept flickering and would disappear at any time.
New capabilities on the horizon
"The amount of food is not enough, and the new ability cannot be stabilized?" Roy confirmed this guess, and it took five ounces directly to make a change.
Then eat some more!
He made up his mind that he could not monopolize the benefits, leaving half of the herbs to Leto.
So he stretched out his hand and grabbed it, pulling the second weeping blood of the sun out of the soil.
Seeing this, the witcher didn't stop him, but raised his eyebrows, leaned against the wall with his arms around his chest, and looked like he was watching a good show.
Two, three, four, five—when half the blood of the sun remains in the soil.
Roy stopped eating. He squatted on the cold ground to maintain a meditation posture and felt the changes in his body.
His heroic eyebrows and tightly pursed lips trembled involuntarily. The digested blood of the sun radiated a huge amount of heat. The heat spread from his stomach to his whole body, like a stove, which baked him covered with blood scabs. The face, neck, and forearms with exposed leather armor became extremely rosy.
This scalding heat even rushed into the brain, carrying the majestic information contained in the blood vessels, and turned it into a series of strange characters composed of straight lines, curves, and dots.
There are thousands of characters in his mind, and he must have never learned any of them - most of them are unfamiliar and obscure, with simple shapes and full of a primitive flavor.
Only a small number of characters are similar to the common script of the North, which he studied at the House of Edsburgh Cadel.
Rather, the Nordic language was derived from this small number of quirky characters.
He was in a strange state for an unknown amount of time.
When all the unfamiliar characters are presented one by one in his mind, the pronunciation, writing, and meaning are all drawn into his blood and soul, and will never be forgotten.
He has mastered a language.
Archaic
Roy woke up from the strong physical changes, and his intuition confirmed his thoughts.
The extra language in my mind is the language used by the elves, the ancient language.
"But why does eating the blood of the sun allow me to master the language of the elf?"
His attention turned to the personal template, and he suddenly froze.
"You have swallowed a lot of blood from the sun... You have acquired the racial talent of the Elves of Ain El, and you have mastered the ancient language through blood memory."
You have unlocked skills:
The elegance of the wind (passive curing): The elves have elegant appearance and posture, and their movements are as keen as a cheetah, Charisma +1, Agility +1.
Charisma 5→6
Agility 5.1→6.1
…
It is unimaginable that the blood of the sun has actually changed his bloodline.
"So I'm no longer a pure human being."
As a traveler, he is not obsessed with a certain bloodline, and he is not afraid of becoming a witcher, let alone an ancient elves
Elves are elves, at least not like dwarves or goblins, and the difference in appearance is too big. Also gave him two free attributes.
He flipped through the handwriting in the template again, and the elf blood he obtained did not come from the Ain Sidi elf from the Witcher world, but the Ain El elf from another world.
The relationship between the two elves is very complicated.
But he knows one thing - Ciri, the son of luck in the witcher world, can travel through time and space at will with the ancient blood in his body, and the source of the ancient blood is the ancient blood of Ain El.
So is it possible to get a glimpse of the mysteries of time and space through this half-hearted Ain El bloodline
He shook his head and laughed, he was delusional. There is definitely no drama at this stage... It can only be regarded as a thought.
Lesso has been leaning against the wall to keep an eye on the boy with closed eyes. In just five minutes, the other party's appearance and temperament have undergone some subtle changes - the skin on the slightly darkened face has become delicate and shiny, even a dirty blood scab can not Completely covered up, the original oval auricle seems to have grown upward, and it appears to be a little more pointed than ordinary people. If you don't look carefully, you can't see it.
When he opened his eyes, his black eyes became deeper and brighter than stars.
Compared with before, his appearance and temperament have become more conspicuous.
"Little devil, how do you feel?"
"Very good!" The boy jumped up, stretched his hands and feet, and did a front flip easily in the secret room. "The body has become more flexible and the balance ability has been strengthened. By the way, I also learned the ancient language."
"Ancient language?" The witcher looked up and down. "You didn't realize that after swallowing the blood of the sun, your appearance has also changed?"
"Where are you referring to?" Roy touched his cheek, nose, eyes, and mouth, but he couldn't feel any change, so he had to look in the mirror.
"The contours of the facial features are more distinct, and the top of the ears are pointed. This is the typical appearance of a quarter elf." After Lesso finished speaking, a sudden flash of surprise flashed in his eyes, "So it is... The blood of the sun is really a cross-age. A great invention, it can change races and bloodlines, so that human beings have the blood of elves."
The demon hunter's tone was slightly sarcastic,
"The rule of elves has been subverted by humans, but a plant that assimilates humans is cultivated? What is this, if you can't beat it, you will become your own? But the blood of the sun cannot be cultivated in large quantities, and their attempts can only end in failure."
"As for your ancient saying, it should be inherited from the bloodline. Most of the quarter elves in history are not nameless people." "Little devil, maybe you can become a big man in the future."
Quarter-elves, as the name suggests, have either a human parent or a half-elves, or both.
Compared with half-elves, quarter-elves have more human blood in their bodies, so they do not have such obvious elf appearance characteristics, and can integrate well into human society.
Only particularly extreme racists would see them as inhuman racial discrimination.
The sorceress Yennefer/Yennefer of Fangerborg, the Faer guest who once bloodshed the northern kingdom, and Vernon Ryan, the leader of the Edsberg Revolutionary Army, are all quarter elves.
"Big man? Don't joke with me, there are so many unnamed quarter elves!" Roy is most afraid of - "Will it affect the grass trial?"
"Don't worry, such a little bloodline is not a big problem, it won't affect the green grass trial, and there are many benefits," Leso said, "Only by bloodline, your life expectancy will be greatly increased, if there are no accidents or terminal illnesses , at least one hundred, twenty or thirty years old."
What is this, a mixed-race advantage
"Since it's good," Roy thought for a while, "you should eat the remaining five plants. The two elixir prescriptions have been lost, so it's useless to keep them. Even if they can be refined by chance, witcher You can't use it either, it's better to eat the herbs directly."
In one or two hundred years, the appearance of witchers will not change much, and they will remain in their 30s or 40s. Most of them will not even live that long and will die in battle, so the Wanling Beauty Pill is not very useful.
The witcher's resistance to poison is also strong enough, and the universal antidote is not worth it.
After hesitating for a while, Leto finally stretched out his sinister hand to the screaming plant, and the whole nursery was in a mess.
Unexpectedly, after eating all four plants, there was no change at all, unlike Roy who could feel an obvious heat flow even after eating one.
The blood of the sun had no effect on him.
"Could it be the reason for the mutation?" The boy thought.
Demon hunters have experienced grass trials, organs and genetic mutations, and are actually no longer human.
"Maybe the conversion effect of the blood of the sun can only work on humans."
The witcher also realized this, gave up swallowing the last remaining blood of the sun, and let the boy put it in the storage space for preservation.
"If the elf mage comes back and finds that his hard work has vanished, will he be pissed to death?" Roy put the witcher's arm over his shoulders and supported him to move forward with difficulty.
"You think too much. The magic power on the mural has not been strengthened for more than ten years, and it is extremely weak. I am afraid that 'he' has suffered an accident." The witcher sighed.
The elf warlock took great pains to create such a secret room, but made a wedding dress for others. Is this God's will
…
Blood of the Sun also seems to have caused some hidden changes.
During the rest of the day, Roy followed the actions that he repeated hundreds of times, relaxed his body, restrained his mind, closed his eyes, squatted on the ground, put on the secret handprint of the witcher, and entered a state of meditation.
The first meditation after the bloodline change was different from the previous shallow meditation to restore physical energy, but a deeper meditation that came into contact with the essence of the world more naturally.
His spirit escaped into a world of pure darkness, and the incomparable freshness reminded him of the state when he first entered meditation.
The air around him was thick like water waves, binding his spirit and making him unable to move an inch.
However, a ray of light suddenly lit up in the darkness, and it was a shaky flame in the distance.
It only needs to take a breath and it will go out, but it is extremely tenacious, pregnant with a terrifying explosion and anxiety, getting stronger and closer.
Then there are yellow light spots, which give people a sense of solidity and stability, representing the soil and the earth; cyan and light light spots, light and naughty, represent wind and air; blue light spots, full of moisture and vitality Vitality represents water.
The four elements, earth, fire, water, and wind, approached him in clusters.
If his spirit has tentacles, it must be reaching out to capture these elements greedily at this time.
However, the naughty elements seemed to be just playing tricks on him. They circled around him, and after a sniff, most of them disappeared into the darkness.
"Do not-"
Roy's heart trembled, and he almost woke up from the state of meditation. He could only grab the life-saving straw, a trace of the four thin elements that still lingered around him.
He could clearly feel the temptation of the element, and he danced lightly around him for a while, as if he wanted to communicate with him, but he was hesitant to speak, a little shy and timid.
"Leave!"
Roy screamed hoarsely in his heart, but they seemed to be frightened, and instantly disappeared into the darkness and disappeared.
Although they are extremely nostalgic and reluctant to part, they are still like sand, slipping through the fingers.
"Damn!" Roy pulled away from meditation, his face full of unwillingness and regret, "It's almost obvious that the elements can be left behind!"
But he has a strong intuition, and he just needs to keep repeating his meditation and trying, and one day he will be able to connect with the elements.
Maybe he will be able to unlock the magic without using the grass trial!
"It's finally improved..." To a certain extent, the blood of the sun has indeed improved his magical talent. It used to be completely insulated, but now it has a little meaning.
