Chapter 123: Awakening and Harvest

"Are you awake yet?" Olgarok turned to ask the guard.

"It's the third day, Lord Chief, but the human still hasn't woken up." The guard bowed slightly and answered loudly.

"If this continues, he may not be able to catch up with his companions who rescued him... and the little girl." Olga Rock murmured. He thought about it and finally made a decision: "Send my order and send Lei Gena was brought to the altar of ancestors, and I want to establish a spiritual connection with him again.”

"Yes! Chief." The guard replied, but just as he was about to leave, another guard ran over: "Chief! That human is awake!"

"Finally woke up!" Olgar Rock breathed a sigh of relief.

Regnar looked at the orc guard on standby. He originally wanted this guy to bring him some food, but when he said the words, he realized that he didn't know orc language.

"Ah, on the importance of mastering foreign languages..." Regnar looked up to the sky and sighed, but just when he felt helpless, a magnetic female voice rang in his mind: "!... %¥#%# @#"

"???" Regnar was stunned for a long time, and then said as if talking to himself: "What do you mean?"

"Orc language, give me some food." Garona's voice rang again: "Remember to call me teacher in the future. Also, you don't need to speak out when you talk to me, just think about it in your mind. I can receive it. arrive."

"Uh... good teacher." Regnar thought silently, and then ordered to the orc: "!... %¥#@#"

The orc guard turned to look at Regna in confusion. Regna nodded and repeated it again. After confirming that the human was asking for food in Orc language, the guard nodded to him and walked out.

After the orc guards left, Regnar began to check his physical condition.

"No need to look, we have reached level fourteen now." Garona said lazily.

"Wow!" Regnar was very excited. He reached level three in such a short period of time. It seemed that he had benefited a lot from inheriting Garona's power this time. He clenched his fist slightly, feeling the feeling of power rushing through his body.

"Okay, these are just drizzle. The attribute ability you inherited from me is the key." Garona was very unimpressed by Regna's useless appearance:

"Hmph, you are really lucky, you have inherited my ability. Tell me, how are you going to repay the teacher?"

"Hehehehehe..." If there was anyone else in this room, they would have found Regnar grinning like an idiot and giggling alone.

"Of course I will provide more souls to the teacher so that you can escape the danger of annihilation." Regnar's voice was unabashedly flattering. He picked up his own Devouring Light and thought silently: "Just use it to kill people." What?"

"That's right." Garona said: "This Soul Eater has disappeared in the Eastern Continent for hundreds of years. I didn't expect that it would fall into your hands. This sword can absorb the fragments of their souls while killing the enemy. I have now become the sword spirit of this sword, and the soul fragments it absorbs can naturally be supplied to me."

"So... this sword can be considered to have self-awareness now?" Regnar looked at Tun Guang curiously.

In Garona's introduction, the Light Swallowing Sword was originally called Soul Eater, and it was previously a secondary artifact-level weapon. It was originally the weapon of Wenlingnington, the famous human assassin in the Eastern Continent hundreds of years ago, but then Wenlingnington suddenly disappeared in the Eastern Continent, and this weapon also disappeared with the disappearance of its owner.

As a secondary artifact, Soul Eater naturally does not only have the magical effect of devouring soul fragments. But at that time, Wen Lingtong was very famous in the Eastern Continent, and no one had the courage to inquire about the other effects of Soul Eater. Therefore, everything about this sword is still a mystery.

After hundreds of years of abandonment, the soul fragments contained in the Soul-Eating Sword, which was renamed Swallowing Light, have long since dissipated. At present, it only retains the ability to swallow soul fragments. As for other magical effects, I am afraid that they will not appear until Regnar collects enough soul fragments.

If we make a comparison, the difference between the strength of Yan Guang and the former Soul Devourer is like the difference in strength between Regner and Villes. But Devouring Light also has its own advantages. Just like Regnar has the shadow dancer ability compared to Verles, the advantage of Devouring Light compared to Devouring Soul is that he now has his own sword spirit, and it is also a very terrifying one. Sword Spirit, her name is Garona.

Garona injected her incomplete soul into Devouring Light, saving her soul at the cost of becoming a sword spirit, thus escaping the danger of annihilation. But without timely replenishment, Garona's soul will also die. The ability to swallow light and absorb soul fragments solves this problem very well. Therefore, not only did Regnar benefit greatly from the inheritance of power from Garona, but Garona also escaped the disaster of annihilation with the help of her disciples. The two helped each other and made a win-win deal.

"Of course, I am a sword spirit, so the self-consciousness of swallowing light is me, Garona, but don't act like your master, otherwise I want you to look good!" Garona's threat seemed a bit pale and empty, even though she was once a famous person. She was a holy assassin for a while, but now she only has a broken soul left. It is very difficult to threaten Regnar who has both soul and body. It can be said that Garona has already bet everything on Regnar. If this kid becomes ungrateful and turns his back on him, Garona will have no choice.

"Of course, of course, how can a disciple be such an ungrateful villain? Teacher, just watch! Don't worry, I will treat it like a family heirloom when I don't need to swallow it all, and I will burn incense every day!" Lei Gena's chest was beating loudly, but he didn't lie. He had received a lot of benefits from Garona, and now was the time to repay him. Regner's code of conduct has always been to repay kindness and repay revenge.

"Humph, that's about the same, but there's no need to support me. This method is useless at all. It's better to give me two more soul fragments." Garona also breathed a sigh of relief after hearing Regna's assurance. , it was finally worth it that I had tested him for so long. It seemed that this boy was really stupid. Under such circumstances, it was most appropriate to accept him as his apprentice.

"Hey, teacher, I will do whatever you say to me as a disciple!" Regnar agreed without hesitation.

At this time, the orcs also brought food back. Considering that Regnar hadn't eaten much in the past three days, the honest orc guard went directly to the kitchen and called two cooks. They immediately lit a fire in Regnar's room and prepared to roast a lamb for Regnar.

"How considerate!" Regnar drooled as he looked at the roasted half-cooked lamb. He was almost going crazy with hunger, so he was afraid that the guards would not bring enough food, but he did not expect that the guards were very considerate.

After a while, the cook cut off the roasted part and brought it to Regnar.

Regnar, who was so hungry that he was dizzy, didn't care about etiquette at this time, and looked at the fragrant barbecue and grabbed it. As soon as the cook served it, Regner had already finished eating, but fortunately, the two orc cooks were both chefs carefully selected by the empire for Olga Roque. The two of them moved very quickly. Regnar had just finished one plate when the second plate of barbecue was brought up.

Just when Regnar was enjoying his meal, Olga Rock rushed over. The guard and the cook quickly stood at attention and saluted.

"Do your own thing and don't worry about me." The great chief waved his hand and said in orc language, and then said to Regnar: "You finally woke up."

"What?" Regnar was stunned: "Did I sleep for a long time?"

"Three days," Olgarok said.

"What!?" Regnar almost jumped up: "Doesn't that mean that the full moon night is approaching?"

"It's enough time for you to go back." Olga Rock said, "Also, the little blue-haired girl who was traveling with you has already gone back."

"What?!" Regnar jumped up: "You mean Annie? Aren't you going to keep him as a hostage? How could you let her go?"

"She convinced me." Olga Rock shrugged: "She said that the other little girl is equally important to you, and it is enough to keep her as a hostage. So, she doesn't want to stay here anymore. , so he left."

"This woman!" Regnar was furious again. He felt that Annelotte was probably returning to the guild this time. How could she be so noble as to be willing to be a hostage here? Leaving the ignorant Enelise behind, she just ran back. hateful! You should have listened to the boss a long time ago and shouldn't have believed her!

Regnar regretted in his heart that it was because he was infatuated with Annelotte's beauty that he believed in her so unreservedly. Now it seems that Annelotte doesn't care about this team at all. She abandoned everyone and sought asylum from the guild alone. After all, Regnar himself has taken all the blame, and now even if she goes back, the Secret Eyes will not embarrass her.

Olgar Rock didn't know what Regna was thinking, but he just asked: "How is it? Have you inherited the power of Garona's heart?"

Regnar frowned and clenched his fist, then nodded: "Okay, I have reached level 14 now. After exploding all my strength, I should be able to fight Horadik."

"Very good." Olga Rock said with satisfaction: "Then will you continue to fulfill your original agreement? I may not be able to stop you now, but at least I still have the little girl in my hands. If you choose to escape, then this The little girl’s life would be at risk.”

"You don't need to remind me about this matter!" Regnar, who felt he had been betrayed by Annelotte, was in a bad mood at this time. He said coldly: "I will definitely bring you Horadric's head in a few days. Come back, but you must ensure the safety of Inelise. Otherwise, the next thing I want to take is your head!"

Olgar Rock was neither angry nor indifferent to Regnar's threat. He just nodded: "Of course I will guarantee this. Time is running out. You should prepare it as soon as possible. I am not too anxious about Horadik's head." , but your companions may not be able to wait that long."

"Of course I will worry." After Regnar said that, he ignored Olgar Rock and just replenished his energy, but his heart seemed to have fallen into an ice cave.

Could it be that these two years and more of friendship are really not important to you at all
