When Regnar woke up, what came into view was the face of an uncle who was about forty years old.
I have to say that although he and Soram are both uncles, the man in front of him looks many times better than Soram's fat-headed appearance.
This is probably the most handsome man Regnar has ever seen, with clear-cut mouth corners, a high nose bridge, the slightest wrinkles left by the vicissitudes of life, and a sparkling wisdom.
The radiant eyes, when combined together, create a face that is enough to make 90% of women scream.
"Uncle, where am I?" Regnar rubbed his temples and stood up. He carefully recalled the scene before coma, the tragic death of Silenos, the attack of the orcs, Vera's capture, Kordak These scenes of serious injury haunted Regnar's mind again like a nightmare.
After recalling everything, Regnar's heart tightened again. How is Kordak doing now
"Uncle, how is my boss... the tallest and strongest man doing now?" Regnar asked anxiously, but suddenly he saw the slender ears of the uncle in front of him, and then he realized that this was an elf.
"Damn it, I forgot that the elves don't understand!" Regnar couldn't wait any longer and was about to get up and go outside to look for Vera and Kordak.
"Don't worry, child, your body is very weak now." The elf's voice was rich and deep, very magnetic, but these are not important. What is important is that he speaks standard common language!
"Do you know Common Language?" Regnar turned around and asked in surprise.
"Of course, I have lived in the human world before." The elf smiled.
"Then do you know the situation of my two companions? How are they? Can you take me to see them?" Regnar asked anxiously.
"Don't worry, your companion's life is not in danger, and the girl named Vera has woken up, but before taking you to see them, I want to ask you a few questions." Elon said slowly.
"Then... Okay, please ask." After hearing that their lives were not in danger, Regnar finally breathed a sigh of relief. He secretly suppressed the anxiety in his heart and prepared to answer patiently. After all, they were asking for help from the elves now, so it was better for him to appear respectful.
"Tell me your name, your identity, and the purpose of coming here." Elon said, looking at the young man in front of him.
"My name is Regnar. I am a mercenary living in Falling Star City. We accepted a mission to get rid of the red-blooded bears in the forest. Later, on the way back from completing the mission, we encountered an attack by orcs. For this reason, my companion He was seriously injured. Because it is too far away from the town, we can only seek help from the elves." Regnar tried his best to briefly describe the original story of the matter, and then asked tentatively: "My companion... how is he? Already?"
"So that's it... My child, your companion is not in particularly good condition right now, but don't worry, at least his life is not in danger today."
When it was mentioned that Kordak's condition was not very good, Regner's expression changed on the spot, so Elon quickly offered words of comfort. He did not doubt what Regnar said, because before Regnar woke up, he had cast a detection lie on Regnar, and the magic had already told him that the boy in front of him was not lying.
"Why did you say there was no life-threatening danger today?" Regner quickly discovered the problem in Elon's words.
"You'd better come with me." Elon sighed, and then led Regna out of the room.
Most of the elves' rooms were built on towering trees. When Regnar walked out of the room, he couldn't help but be amazed by the sight in front of him.
Elon was not surprised by Regner's performance. He waited patiently for Regner to appreciate the scenery in front of him.
Whether it was the magic beam hanging on the tree for lighting or the exquisite attic suspended in mid-air, Regnar, who came into contact with elves for the first time, felt excited and novel. But not long after, Regnar's heart was quickly occupied by Kordak's injury. He smiled apologetically at Elon, and then signaled that he could move on.
"It's beautiful, it's really beautiful here." Regnar praised.
"Thank you for your compliment, child." Elon smiled. The Yege clan has existed in this forest for thousands of years. Regnar is by no means the first human to come here, so Elon's praise for humans is not the same. Not surprised.
When Regner came to where Kordak was, Vera had been waiting here for nearly an hour.
When the two of them met the elf at noon, they collapsed due to a mental breakdown. Now it was evening. They didn't know how Kordak persisted this afternoon. Maybe the elf had already treated him
Kordak's situation was not much different from last night. He was equally bruised and dying, but the miraculously was that he was still alive.
"I think you may be a little curious about why he has been successful for so long." Elon said slowly while looking at Kordak.
Although this is not a nice thing to say, it has to be said that even Regnar and Vera find it incredible that Kordak can live for so long. This cannot be explained by physical strength at all.
"Do you know the reason?" Regnar asked. He also felt that Kordak's situation was not normal.
"Yes, as far as I know, your friend should have taken some kind of medicine." Elon said.
"Some kind of potion?" Vera thought for a moment, and then said with some disbelief: "Is it the Sinking of the Moon?!"
Elon nodded and replied: "Yes, it should be the Fall of the Moon."
"Impossible! I clearly saw him smashing the bottle of medicine. How could he drink it? Impossible, absolutely impossible." Vera immediately became excited after receiving the affirmative answer.
"Sister Vera, Mr. Elon, what are you talking about? What is Sunken Moon? Boss, what did he drink?" Regnar was confused, but he could already feel it from Vera's expression. Something is wrong.
"..." Vera looked at the confused Regna, but didn't know what to say.
"Let me explain it." Elon saw Vera's excitement. He sighed and explained slowly: "The Sunken Moon is an alchemical potion. Legend has it that it was created by a human alchemist thousands of years ago. .I think as human beings, I think you know that your own race has short life, physical fragility and many other weaknesses.
To this end, humans have also created many ways to compensate for these weaknesses. Some of you humans who are familiar with magic will turn themselves into undead lichs to gain a longer life, some will temper their bodies to make qualitative changes in life itself, but some humans will steal it through alchemical potions. The specialties of other races and using them to their advantage.
The most successful among them is the famous alchemical potion Dragon Essence Potion. It extracts the power of dragons from the dragon crystal through alchemical technology. Humans who drink it will gain a longer life than normal, and some people will even gain the ability to release dragon language magic through this bottle of potion.
Although the effect is remarkable, because each bottle of potion requires an entire piece of dragon crystal to make, the cost is too high, so this potion is very rare.
But the Dragon Essence Potion inspired other alchemists, and the production idea of Sunken Moon was very similar to it. However, its raw material is not dragon crystal, but..." Elon paused and said, "Werewolf blood! "
Regnar's heart skipped a beat. Although he had never seen a werewolf, he had heard many legends about this creature, and every time he heard these legends, they would be accompanied by a large number of bloody, violent and cruel descriptions.
Therefore, even though Elon did not elaborate on the role of the Sunken Moon, Regner immediately felt something bad when he heard the werewolf blood.
"That was the reward for a mission two years ago..." Vera also adjusted her emotions and then explained: "At that time, we accepted a commission from an alchemist. After completing the mission, he not only paid us a sufficient commission, but also We have a bottle of The Sunken Moon.
We didn't know what this bottle of medicine did before, but after asking around, we finally figured it out. I was frightened at the time and immediately asked Kordak to throw it away. Kordak disagreed at first, and later destroyed it at the strong request of Silenos and me. I just didn't expect that he actually lied to us and kept this bottle of medicine until now. "
"Then what exactly does this bottle of medicine do?" Regnar took a deep breath and asked in a low voice.
"The Sinking of the Moon is made of werewolf blood as the main material. It allows humans to gain certain werewolf abilities after taking it.
Specifically, it is the extraordinary recovery ability, and as you can see, your companions did not die despite being so seriously injured. This is the role of the sinking of the moon. The werewolf's blood inspired all the potential power of his life, allowing him to persist until now.
However, while the werewolf blood brings resilience to humans, it also gives humans another werewolf trait. That is Full Moon Violence. Humans who take Moon Sinking will become uncontrollably mad at the full moon. He will lose almost all his sanity and become a butcher who only knows fighting and killing. He will kill even those closest to him without hesitation.
Therefore, although humans who take Moonfall will not completely turn into werewolves, they are not much different from werewolves.
And this is why this alchemical potion is named the Sunken Moon - even a pure-hearted person, a person who never forgets to pray at night, will inevitably transform into a wolf on a full-moon night when aconite blooms. Elon said softly.
