chapter eight

"What kind of poison is it?" Although this was not good news, Shania still asked calmly, "Is it going to attack soon?"

"Don't worry. Judging from the onset time of this poison, the person who poisoned it did not want to kill us immediately." Cohen waved his hand to signal Shania to stop talking. Gradually, between Cohen and Duke Swice,

Under his gaze, a drop of black sweat appeared on Shania's forehead, but it did not flow down, but solidified on the skin, shining brightly under the light.

"Do you think there's anything unusual?" Duke Swice was very worried, but in order to comfort Shania, he couldn't show this worry in his words. In order to show his concern, he could only reach out and hold Shania while speaking.

Miss Ya's hand, since he came of age, the Duke has never taken the initiative to hold the hand of a person of the opposite sex.

"Abnormal? Does fear count?" Her hand was held by the Duke, and she felt the warmth in the other person's hand. Shania's originally firm will disappeared inexplicably at a very fast speed, and her heart became worried, and her eyes were filled with worry.

There were still some tears in it.

"Is this your true temperament, Miss? It would be nice to be so gentle and approachable earlier." Cohen pulled out a dagger, carefully removed the drop of black sweat from Shania's forehead, and studied it carefully, "

People! Only when things happen, you will find something important to yourself or worth cherishing. Is this fool with black eyes the person you cherish? "

"I want you to take care of it!" Shania retorted stubbornly, "Aside from making fun of others, what else can you do?"

"I can also save people!" Cohen took out a lot of bottles and jars from his arms, found a bottle of medicinal powder, carefully poured a little into the black sweat beads, and slowly mixed it, "You two

Ah! Do you want to send someone to plead with me?"

"I don't want it! I would rather be poisoned than beg you." Shania continued stubbornly, "The result of begging you will definitely be worse than being poisoned."

"Why do you judge me like this? I rarely want to save people with such sincerity." Cohen stopped what he was doing and raised his head at Duke Swice, "This young master is not the kind of nobleman you think of.

, there is absolutely no so-called gentlemanly demeanor in my body. If you want me to help, you must ask me."

"I beg you." Duke Swice held Xenia's hand tightly and said to Cohen: "Please help Ms. Xenia detoxify."

"Okay! Since you are so sincere, you owe me once." Cohen whistled for a long time, quickly wiped the black sweat on the dagger blade, then packed up the things on the table and put them in his arms.

"You hold her and come with me." "Why... weren't you just preparing to detoxify?" Duke Swice was a little unable to react.

"Why, did I tell you that I was making preparations for detoxification?" Cohen took off the saber from his back, "I just saw that the venom is relatively rare, so I mixed it for myself... Let's go! Time waits for no one,

Stop dawdling."

Duke Sivis was furious, but he had no choice but to pick up Xenia and follow him. At this moment, a strange feeling suddenly arose in his heart: the man in black walking in front,

It is very possible that he can defeat himself in any matter. He doesn't even need to think about the strategy to deal with himself. He can just pick up a good strategy. Such a character is simply a rare treasure in the Demon Alliance. If he can

Defeating Korn Kedar will become easier if you stay with him.

On the other side, the guard captain Tiantian, from the moment he knew that Miss Senia was poisoned, launched an intense operation to extract a confession. When Cohen and others walked out of the yard, Tiantian was using his typical military methods to explain to the mayor.

For some things, including the care and supervision of the little samurai, the mayor was forced to swallow more than a dozen bottles of poison, which made his legs weak from fear.

When he reached the town square, Cohen raised his hand to signal the people behind him to stop, and walked forward alone. There was no light in the square, and under the dim starlight, eight black warriors holding scimitars faced him.

When Cohen came over, they were dressed the same, had the same weapons, and even the steps they took and the expressions on their faces were exactly the same.

"It's late at night and the light is not good. If you wear black clothes and wander around, you will get beaten." Cohen stopped and the white shadow on his shoulder flew up into the night sky. "The poison is good, do you have any more? Let's discuss it and share it with me."

use."

"That poison is very precious, I'm afraid you can't afford it." An old man wearing a white robe appeared behind the warrior.

"Didn't you understand what I said?" Cohen smiled slightly. "I said you should use some of it, but there is no money left!"

"Don't change the subject. What's the deep grudge between you and the vampires? Why do you keep killing my people?" The old man raised a piece of white feather in his hand and his tone became obviously tough. "You must have left this behind on purpose!"

A total of ten people are missing. In addition to the three you killed and the five maimed, where are the other two?" At this time, Cohen looked at the other party - a tall and thin figure with a face like this.

With a skull-like face and a body that is about to fall apart if he moves, this half-dead old man is used to playing tricks.

"Do you want to know? In exchange for poison and antidote." Cohen took a few steps forward, "In that case, maybe I will spare your life."

"I have already said that this poison is very precious, and the antidote is only available to the leader of our clan. If you want the antidote, you have to follow me." The old man raised his hand, "If you attack the vampire clan during the day, you should also be attacked at night.

Awareness of the vampire attack!"

At the old man's signal, the eight warriors rushed forward at the same time and surrounded Cohen. Their movements were quick and neat.

Cohen pursed his lips and slowly held the handle of the knife. The old man gave an order, and all the warriors took action at the same time. A continuous blade of light flashed in the dark night sky, and rushed toward Cohen from all directions like a raging wave. At the same time,

, a large, rapidly rotating ice crystal appeared above Cohen's head!

"Blood clan killing array?" Duke Swice was startled. He put Miss Senia in Heaven's hands and swept forward while drawing his sword. Just as the Duke was thinking about selecting the target, during the continuous offensive of the warriors,

A faint blue light appeared. The light drew a dazzling circle in the sky and then disappeared. Then there was a sharp and weak sound of breaking through the air.

A warrior stepped back with only half of his scimitar, his left hand tightly covering his neck. Before he could even take ten steps back, a few streaks of blood mist sprayed out from between his fingers. By the time he fell, the blood had already

A large area of ​​the ground was stained red.

"Ask me again, where is the antidote?" Cohen stood quietly among the warriors, his sword in its sheath, as if he had done nothing, only the corners of his black cloak were slowly fluttering in the night wind.

"It's in the hands of the leader of our clan! However, you should take care of yourself first!" The old man's heart trembled and he waved his withered hands in front of his chest. The large ice crystal on Cohen's head shook violently and pressed down on his head.

.But at about an arm's length from Cohen's head, the ice crystals not only stopped rotating, but also slowly gathered into several groups around Cohen. No matter how hard the old man tried, the ice crystals still did not follow his will - using sharp edges and corners.

Tear Cohen to pieces.

Cohen has seized control of the opponent's magic in a short period of time!

Seeing that the old man's actions were blocked, several warriors hurriedly took action, but were blocked by ice crystals that "surrendered to the enemy". One of them who rushed forward died heroically. The swirling ice crystals turned him into a gorgeous blood flower, making him

Their bodies are spread across every corner of the square.

"You...you robbed me of my magic!" The old man's fingers were trembling, "You thief, robber!"

All the ice crystals fell to the ground, and another smile appeared on Cohen's lips. His body was flashing continuously, like a phantom of nothingness. The blue light appeared again, continuously, in the night.

One after another, almost perfect arcs are drawn in the middle. Every time Cohen's figure passes by a black warrior, a bright red blood flower will explode on that warrior's body. The seventh blood flower has just bloomed.

At that moment, Cohen's left hand pinched the old man's neck.

"Antidote." Although it is a straightforward threat, Cohen's voice is full of emotion. Even if he is holding a person who wants to commit suicide in his hand, he will be filled with sympathy after hearing this sentence.

The desire to live.

"At the patriarch's place..." Before the old man could finish his words, Cohen crushed his throat neatly.

Although it was not that he had never killed someone before, hearing the crisp sound of bones breaking under such circumstances still made the Duke and Heaven shiver in their hearts. Fortunately, Miss Xenia had already fallen asleep and did not experience such a terrible thing.

One scene.

"It seems that he really has no antidote." After searching the old man's body and reading the few scrolls he found carefully, Cohen turned to the Duke and said: "Prepare the carriage! Let's go see the leader of the Blood Clan.

.”

"Are you sure that this poison won't... attack before we find the blood clan leader?" Duke Swice paused, "We don't know where the blood clan leader is."

"Don't worry, since it's something I promised, of course I will do it." Cohen used a dagger to prick an incision on Shania's finger, squeezed out the blood and looked at the color, "I happen to know where the patriarch is. We

There’s enough time.”

"I just want to remind you that this thing can only succeed." Duke Swice stared at Cohen, "Heaven, prepare the carriage."

In less than a quarter of an hour, two carriages had already carried several people out of Viper Town, heading deep into the dividing line between gods and demons overnight.

Miss Senia has been sleeping deeply. She is wrapped in a quilt, and her little face has a coquettish blush. Although she knows it is sick, she looks very ugly against the white skin. Duke Swice has been holding her hand.

, in his concerned gaze, the previous worry had gradually faded away, replaced by a strange calmness.

It was already raining lightly outside the car window. Under the light of the car, the raindrops were particularly conspicuous. Cohen first fell asleep for a while, then tapped the window frame with his fingers in boredom, turning his head to look at the Duke from time to time.

and Miss Shania.

"You've been feeling uncomfortable since just now. Don't you like the rain?" Duke Swice said to Cohen, but his eyes stayed on Shania's face. "She likes rain very much. Remember

When it rained on the way here, she was so happy that she didn’t even need rain gear, like a child.”

"Why did you suddenly say this to me? I am not a good conversation partner for you. I will ridicule you." Cohen looked out the window and replied lazily, "This lady was poisoned because of me.

, you must hate me in your heart now, just say it clearly. Don’t worry if you have too many debts, I don’t care if one more person hates me.”

"Although it seems to be your fault, living in this strange world, who can know in advance what will happen next? Besides, I believe that Xenia will get through this difficulty." Siwes said bitterly.

Xiaoxiao said, "For me, being poisoned or assassinated is something I may encounter every day and every moment. I try my best to keep myself alone, just because I don't want to involve unnecessary people. Unexpectedly, I still haven't escaped."

…”

"Are you nervous about Shania?" Cohen turned around, "If you like her, you can marry her after this thing is over."

"We're just ordinary friends for the time being... We haven't reached that stage yet, and in my current situation, it's not my turn to decide on the wedding. As long as I talk to Miss XX for a few more words, there will definitely be some kind of

With the interference of forces, I will never be able to have a relationship with pure emotions." Siwes shook his head and looked away from Xenia's face, "You who are far away from the aristocratic circle may not be able to understand my feelings.

But that’s what it is.”

While speaking, the Duke looked at Cohen, but Cohen clearly saw Miss Senia's eyebrows twitching.

"Are you reminding me of your status?" Seeing that Shania was poisoned and still eavesdropped on other people's conversations, Cohen couldn't help but feel funny, "If you can't even retain this right, what else can you do as a noble?

It’s better to go to the countryside and farm.”

"Will farming in the countryside bring good results? Will you be happy if you have a loved one and then be trampled on with the loved one?" Siwes asked, "In your wandering life in the past few years, apart from working for

What else have you gained besides the reputation of being a crazy wolf? Have you really gotten what you wanted?"

"I have freedom. Of course, it depends on how you understand the meaning of freedom. I work hard for the things I cherish, and I am also saving some things. I think it is reasonable to pay some price." Cohen smiled,

"From your tone, you are also a person who is not satisfied with the status quo."

"What you said has a deeper meaning. You are also a very sensible person. How come you have the nickname Crazy Wolf?" Swice changed the topic, "Why do you have trouble with the vampires?"

"During the civil strife in Campo, it was the Blood Clan that massacred the Gutai family. Although I don't like this surname or the name, since I use this name, I have an obligation to avenge the Gutai family." Lying is for Cohen.

It is simply a special skill. He replied calmly, "As for the nickname Crazy Wolf, in fact I don't like it either, but when I am angry, you will understand everything."

"Really?" Duke Swice raised his brows, "I would like to take a look."

"There are plenty of opportunities." Cohen chuckled, "Tell something else, don't dwell on these boring topics."

"good."

"Don't you think your appearance is too feminine? I have many kinds of special accessories here that can make you more manly. Do you want some? The price is negotiable..."

"I refuse to discuss this."

"Or I can teach you how to draw patterns on your face, very powerful ones..."

"I think two black eye sockets are enough..." (To be continued)
