Gang Yan wanted to retain Wiltok, but could not give a specific reason. Wiltok did not think much and immediately rejected his proposal and returned to the Adventurer's House Hotel alone.
During this visit to the Taku Tribe and the Hemer Tribe's life sacrifice, Wiltok gained something unexpected. He mobilized the inner potential of his life and actively restored part of his physical strength. The energy activation talent did not count. This was his ability in itself. Now he just thinks about it again.
That’s all.
The synchronization of "knowledge puzzle" and self-will, triggering extraordinary spirituality, is what Vertok is particularly interested in.
The last synchronization happened accidentally, and Wiltok could never find the feeling he had at that time. Although he used "Knowledge Puzzle" that night to carefully recall all the details of the synchronization, due to the lack of comparison, he could not extract the details that caused the synchronization.
key information.
With the experience of the last time, this synchronization is particularly valuable. Wiltok is so eager that he can't wait to go to bed and think about it immediately, compare the details of the two synchronizations, and determine what they have in common. However, the "knowledge puzzle" is related to whether he can
Recovering his memory and finding himself is also a secret that he cannot tell anyone.
Since the secret ceremony hosted by Gang Yan can cause Vertok to synchronize the "knowledge puzzle", Vertok felt that if he stayed in the Temple of the Earth Mother to review his memories, Gang Yan might be aware of it. In addition, Gang Yan inexplicably hoped
He stayed in the Temple of the Earth Mother, which deepened Wiltok's doubts.
Just in time, Boss Bottom sent someone to find him, and Wiltok left the Tower Cave, the settlement of the Hemer tribe.
As soon as he returned to the hotel, Bottom came to the door. When he saw Wiltok, he smiled and asked: "Haha, Wiltok, how do you feel about participating in the Life Festival?"
Wiltok blinked and said: "Xinna almost killed Sisi. John was picked by her first, but no one chose me."
Bartome was startled and sighed: "Most of the Hemo female warriors lacked sense when they participated in the life sacrifice. Especially some young female warriors will pay a heavy price for their recklessness. However, the Taku tribe will usually intervene.
, to control the number of deaths within three. In fact, Xinna will choose Gang Yan as her spouse this time, and no one dares to compete with her. But this time Gang Yan clashed with the famous Golden Oak Dragoon, and he and another
Several adult Taku tribe members decided not to participate in this year's life festival. Xinna had no choice but to choose John, which angered Xixi."
Wiltok frowned and asked: "Why did the Taku tribe not participate in this year's life festival due to the conflict with the dragoons?"
Bottom shook his head and said: "Taku and Hemo are already hostile to the dragon-veined half-elves. The dragon cavalry has always been used by the alliance to intimidate Tako and Hemo's powerful force. Only when both sides meet with restraint can they live in peace.
Thing. Since there is a conflict between the Gangyan leaders and the dragon cavalry from the famous Golden Oak family, the Taku clan will definitely be on guard."
Wiltok nodded thoughtfully, suddenly stared at the hotel owner with a cautious look, and asked: "If the dragoons fight with Gangyan and the others, who should we help?"
Bottom particularly liked Wiltok's use of the word "we". He smiled happily: "Of course we are helping Steel Rock fight the Dragoons."
Wiltok showed a satisfied smile and nodded: "I also think we should help Gangyan." He paused and then said: "I hate Hurant."
Boss Bottom fell silent for a moment and sighed: "I'm looking for you just to talk to you about the famous Golden Oak Dragoons."
"Vell, tell the truth, do you have any impression of the famous Golden Oak family?" Bottom asked with a serious expression.
Wiltok thought about it carefully, shook his head blankly and said, "I don't remember."
His answer was also what Bottom expected. The hotel owner nodded and said thoughtfully: "The famous Golden Oak family has a long history and a huge power. They pioneered the career path of oak guard. Originally, Tawu, Hemo and others
The tribes are active in remote border areas, and famous families have taken root in Highland City. If people from famous families come to the border stronghold and cause friction with the Earth Mother Temple, the branch president of the Adventure Union like me should come forward to coordinate and avoid escalating the conflict between the two parties. However, Xiulan
The dragoons led by Te actually pointed the finger at me? After thinking about it, I'm afraid the reason lies with you."
Wiltok said with obvious anger: "I don't know why he wanted to arrest me? Did I really know that wolf-herding girl Bertina before? In fact, I am quite familiar with the name Bertina...
"
Bottom waved his hand and said: "The Wolf Shepherd Girl is just an excuse used by Hulant to catch you. If you are really the companion of the Wolf Shepherd Girl, how did Hulant know about it? We assume that he knows that you and the Wolf Shepherd Girl have an affair.
Relationship, based on the terrifying strength of that female bandit, Hurant should secretly monitor you and seek support from the alliance to avoid alerting the snake, instead of exposing your identity in public with great fanfare. Because he must first make sure that Bertina is not nearby,
Otherwise, wouldn't he be seeking his own death? A discerning person would know at a glance that he is deliberately framed against you."
Wiltok smiled relievedly and said, "You make sense."
The hotel owner continued: "For whatever reason, Hurant has targeted you. To be honest, Will, your appearance is too eye-catching and you can easily be targeted by bad people... Dr. Cole has a way to change your appearance.
Do you want to learn?"
Vertok's eyes shone and he said without hesitation: "How to change your appearance? Of course I want to learn it... How much do I have to pay him before he will teach me?"
Bottom coughed and said in a hushed tone: "The tuition fee must be paid. However, didn't you promise me before that you would hand over the Origin Blood Mystery to the Adventurer's House? Look, the one in your hand is
The money is pitiful... I mean, I will give you a large amount of wealth in exchange for your Origin Blood Mystery. I will also let Cole teach you how to disguise yourself for free."
Wiltok said seriously: "It's a secret method, not a secret ritual."
"What? Oh, yes, yes, it's the Origin Blood Secret Technique, the Origin Blood Secret Technique." Bottom's old face smiled like a flower.
After Wiltok lowered his head and considered for a moment, he happily agreed. For some reason, he also wanted to see what changes would happen to other half-elves when they practiced the Secret of Origin Blood. As for practicing the Secret of Origin Blood, there were certain risks, he
Not that I really care.
If you have to find a reason, the feedback that "Knowledge Puzzle" just gave to Wiltok is that comparison is very important, and only through sufficient comparison can the effectiveness of the secret method continue to be improved.
Boss Bottom's smile became brighter and brighter. He stood up from his chair and said, "We can slowly discuss the price of the Origin Blood Secret Technique. In short, I won't let you suffer. It's not too early now, so I won't bother you."
You rest and go back first. Tomorrow, take some time to go to the pharmacy and find Cole. He will teach you how to disguise yourself."
"Okay, please leave quickly, I want to rest." Wiltok drove the hotel owner out of his room and slammed the door.
The next morning, Wiltok got up from bed, feeling a little depressed. He had been practicing the secret form of the golden toad all night, and he was in good spirits. Unfortunately, although he had made some gains by looking back at his memory, he could not
Master the method to synchronize the "knowledge puzzle" with your own will.
Obviously, only two synchronization experiences are not enough. He needs more synchronization experiences, and he can no longer focus on blacksmithing, or participate in the life ritual of the Hemo tribe. Synchronization must be triggered in other ways before he can conclude that
A proven method.
To put it simply, there is not enough material for the synchronization test. In the future, Wiltok can only try his luck as to whether there will be a chance to enter the wonderful synchronization state again.
He got dressed, went downstairs to wash up, had another hearty breakfast, said hello to Aunt Sarah, then quietly left the back door of the hotel and went to the pharmacy alone to find Dr. Cole.
Cole knew in advance that Wiltok was coming. He did not sleep in late today. He got up early and took three half-elf maids with him to lead Wiltok into a small room in the front hall.
"Vell, you sit on the chair first, and I'll let you see a treasure." Cole said mysteriously, turned around and took a flat wooden box from a maid's hand, and showed the contents to Vertok.
.
They were several translucent films. Wiltok touched them with his fingers curiously and felt that the material of the film was like some kind of colloid.
"This is a shaping mask, made from the inner membrane of Fitch's cuttlefish. It is breathable, lightweight, and has strong adhesion. It can change your appearance, just like the skin that grows on your face, without affecting
It won't deform or fall off even if you rub it with your hands or wash it with water."
Wiltok couldn't help but worry and asked: "Then if I use this kind of thing, can I restore my appearance in the future?"
Cole laughed and said: "Don't worry, this mask is a consumable. It will fall off naturally in about four or five months. The process is like a skin disease that causes automatic shedding. Or, use a special
Once you wash it off with the medicine, it will dissolve quickly, and the medicine will never hurt your skin."
As he said that, Cole looked at Wiltok's face carefully, shook his head and said: "The proportions of your facial features are almost impeccable, especially your eyebrows, which are long and straight, and the difference from the thick eyebrows most common among half-elves is too obvious.
Well, we need to spend some time to plant two rows of fake eyebrows on the shaping mask to make your eyebrows thicker and thicker. In this way, your facial features will be different."
"Now, take off all your clothes..."
Vertok looked at Cole and his three half-elf maids warily, and shouted: "Why do you want me to take off my clothes?"
Dr. Cole explained with a look of astonishment: "You are very tall and well-proportioned. This is also an obvious appearance feature, but it cannot be changed. Fortunately, there are tall half-elves. For example, highland half-elves.
They are all tall and well-proportioned. The offspring of Taku tribe and half-elf women are also tall. I am going to disguise you as a border citizen with Taku tribe blood in your body. There are also many such mixed half-elves in the border strongholds.
.The problem is, their skin is all brown, and your skin is fair and smooth..."
"I've mixed a potion that can change your skin texture and apply it to you five times a day, about twenty times. Your skin will become rougher and your skin color will turn brown. This potion is still effective. In the future,
As long as you apply it every ten days or so, I guarantee that no one will be able to see your previous skin color."
"If you don't take off your clothes, how can we apply the medicine on you?" Dr. Cole spread his hands and said.
He suddenly thought of something, turned around and saw three beautiful half-elf maids snickering, and suddenly said: "Okay, I will let them go out first, and I will help you apply it."
Wiltok felt a chill and shook his head repeatedly: "Give me the potion and I will apply it myself. You all can get out!"
Cole handed over the potion and was forced out of the room by Wiltok. He did not forget to warn through the wooden door: "Vil, apply it all over your body. If it is inconvenient for you, let us help you!"
Wiltok has trained his body to the point where it is both strong and soft. It can be as solid as a rock or as soft as a bone. A simple matter such as applying potion on himself is not difficult at all.
The change of appearance must be done secretly. Wiltok stayed in the pharmacy for the past two days, learning the art of disguise from Dr. Cole while carefully sorting out the secret method of origin blood.
In fact, the source blood secret method is divided into four levels, and each level is a step-by-step relationship. The first level is the simplest foundation and is suitable for four or five-year-old children to practice. Only when the first level source blood secret method is effective can it be practiced
Practice the second-level Origin Blood Secret Technique. At this time, the child should be about ten years old. It will take another three to five years to practice the third-level Origin Blood Secret Technique.
Only when cultivators have perfected the third-level source blood, and then take the source blood potion will it cause a qualitative change in life and gain the talent of life tenacity. But this is also the most dangerous process. If you directly practice the third-level source blood secret method, there is no need to take potions.
, practitioners are basically doing self-mutilation.
As for the fourth-level source-blood secret method, it is called the Original Method of All Things. It is the watershed of the entire set of source-blood secret methods, represents a new starting point, and has a broad future.
Vertok spent three days teaching the first to third-level secrets of Origin Blood to the hotel owner who sneaked over every night. Bottom copied it carefully, and regarded the manuscript as a treasure, and then quietly
Leaving the pharmacy. No one knows where he will hide the manuscript of the Secret of Origin Blood.
On the night of the fourth day, Dr. Cole finally finished the shaping mask. Under the witness of Bottom, he carefully placed a thin layer of the mask on Wiltok's face.
"Perfect..." Dr. Cole looked at Wiltok's new face and said with satisfaction.
"It's like he's a different person!" Boss Bottom exclaimed and walked around Wiltok several times.
"...Not as beautiful as before." The half-elf maid Britney pouted and muttered in a low voice.
Vertok touched his face, and the strange feeling on his fingertips was not obvious. He walked to the mirror and saw in the mirror a handsome young man with thick eyebrows, big eyes, and light brown skin.
"Yes, he looks several years older." He rubbed his smooth chin and nodded in approval.
"Well, the descendants of the Taku clan and half-elves don't grow beards either." Dr. Cole said with a smile: "Your new identity has been arranged. A mixed-race borderer from the Disa Alliance, he is 24 years old this year, and his grandfather is a certain
The Taku clan, his father is also a mixed-race borderer, and his mother is Tess, the half-elf waitress at the Black Cat Hotel in Niujiao Town... The waitress Tess at the Black Cat Hotel in Niujiao Town is all real. Tess's son Sigurt is a tall man.
He was a young adventurer who had never met his bastard father. His bastard father probably didn’t know that a waitress had given birth to a son for him. When Sigurt was fourteen years old, Tess, who had raised him up, died of illness.
.Sigert started wandering around with a small adventure group."
Bottom said: "The reason why we know so clearly is that five years ago, Sigurt and the small adventure group came to Braun Town to make a living. Sigurt always likes to shave cleanly and meet people.
Just bragging that he is a half-blood of Taku, but actually he is trying to take advantage of the waitress without spending any money. He and his asshole father must be of good character."
"Later, the small adventure group went out on an adventure and never returned to the adventurer's home. They left some things at the hotel, including a complete set of identification documents for the adventure group. We found their remains in the wild again, and it looked like
They encountered barbarian plunderers and were defeated by the enemy. They all died in battle. Their bodies were buried on the spot by us, and no one knew about them anymore. Because we planned to use their identities at that time and did not publicize the adventure.
The regiment has perished."
Bottom took out two old animal skin paper documents, placed them in front of Wiltok, and said solemnly: "This one is Sigert's adventurer status document. And this one is the industrial document of a plantation.
.The plantation is located in the western suburbs of Blue Stone Town under the jurisdiction of Beibang, Luoye City. It has been managed by our people... From now on, the plantation will belong to you. I will give you another 10,000 gold pagodas, you can do it anytime
You can come to me to withdraw money."
Wiltok picked up the adventurer's identity document, looked at it, shook his head and said, "I don't like the name Sigurt."
Bottom and Cole looked at each other and said thoughtfully: "I can change your name for you. You just need to remember Sigurt's origins. We have also sent people to investigate some of his affairs in Niujiao Town.
, I’ll tell you later. Tell me what name you want to call me.”
Vertok's eyes were blank, and he said in a daze: "Victor... I like this name. From now on, I will be called Victor."
"Victor?" Bottom shrugged and said indifferently: "This is a very common name... Wiltok is more like the name of a highland half-elf."
While they were talking here, the angrily voice of Vice Captain Huck came from the front hall door, "Suzanne, where is Bottom? Is Bottom here?"
Bottom quickly walked out of the room and yelled at Huck: "It's already dark. Are you yelling because you're afraid that others won't know I'm here?"
Huck saw Vertok behind Bottom and stammered: "Vertok? How did you become like this?"
Dr. Cole's expression froze, and he asked with wide eyes: "You can recognize this...?"
"Isn't this nonsense?" Huck raised his hand to gesture to Wiltok's height, and said angrily: "Apart from him, would you let anyone else come to your lair?"
Wiltok said seriously: "I am Victor. Remember, you have to call me Victor from now on and don't reveal my identity."
Bottom shook his head repeatedly, as if he was dissatisfied with Huck's rashness, and asked: "What's the matter with you running over so impatiently?"
The deputy captain of the Braun Town Guard was immediately alert and said: "The life sacrifice at the Earth Mother Temple ended early, and John and the others were kicked out."
"Oh? This year's Life Festival ended a bit early, only four days..."
"No! Head, the Hemo tribe in the Earth Mother Temple and several underage Taku tribes are all gone! Just now, they forced open the back door of the town and ran away en masse. I don't know where they are going, and I don't know where they are going.
I wonder why they left the town so late? Lord Gangyan said that you should go find him and he will explain to you..."
Bottom's face turned pale, his lips kept trembling, and he murmured: "It's over, something big must have happened..."
