"Why did you find someone to bring so much snake meat?" Looking at Adier, Dill's curious voice sounded from the side.
He looked at the big bag of snake meat in Adil's hand and looked a little curious as he watched Adil handling it.
Adil put a skinned green-eyed snake on his hand and put it on the grill, then turned back to him and said: "I have eaten the meat of this kind of snake in the wild before and thought it tasted good, so I asked him to
Bring some more."
"Want to try it?" He said with a smile on his face and gestured to Dill beside him.
"Okay." Dill laughed, took a skewer of roasted snake meat from Adier's hand, and took a bite.
Instantly, his eyes lit up and he raised his hand to Adier: "It really tastes good."
The lunch ended quickly.
Adier didn't waste the snake meat. He roasted seven or eight snakes at once and ate them all.
The physical fitness of knight apprentices is far higher than that of ordinary people, but relatively speaking, their food intake is often larger. And when Adil is growing, he needs to eat more nutritious food.
Of course, compared to these, the most important thing is that these snake meats also contain trace amounts of beneficial ingredients. According to chip testing, long-term consumption can also increase some body systems, so naturally they cannot be wasted.
After finishing lunch, Adil walked aside, took out a green snake stone, put it in his mouth, chewed it for a while, and then swallowed it.
Although the green snake stone looks like a stone, it is far less hard than a stone and can be easily broken.
However, the taste is not flattering. It has a strong bitter smell, which will cause people to vomit after a long time, making it difficult to swallow.
Adil frowned and swallowed it while suppressing the nauseating feeling.
After swallowing a piece of snake stone, Adier felt an extremely uncomfortable feeling in his body for a moment. It was weak at first, and then became stronger and stronger, with a faint heat, making him feel as if he was being burned.
burning.
After a while, this feeling slowly subsided, and the original severe discomfort gradually turned into an extreme soreness and numbness, which seemed to have a paralyzing effect.
Adil resisted this feeling, took out another snake stone with his right hand from the medicine bag hanging on his waist, and handed it to his mouth.
Then the familiar feeling emerged again, much stronger than last time.
This process continued for a long time, until the mechanical voice in his mind sounded again, and Adil stopped the process.
"Ding! The body's rejection reaction has reached its limit, and swallowing it again will cause irreversible failure of the body's organs."
Feeling the warning in the chip's voice, Adil stopped and let the chip check his physical condition.
In an instant, the chip in his mind reacted and the body data appeared in front of his eyes.
Compared to four months ago, Adil's attributes at this time were much better. Not only did the peak value of strength and structure exceed 3, but even the original weakest agility reached about 2.9. The overall combat power was several months higher than that of Adir.
It was much higher before.
The reason why we have made such great progress is inseparable from Adil's hard work during this period.
In the past four months, Adil has never slackened in his practice of the Knight Breathing Technique. In addition, in addition to the previous snake stone, Adil has found several other kinds of medicine nearby that can work on him.
The materials all have varying degrees of effects, and this is how he has built up his physical fitness to the current level in a short period of time.
"The snake stone is about to lose its effectiveness."
Feeling the increase in physical fitness, Adier felt helpless.
Among the materials he has used, this kind of snake stone is considered to be the most effective. Even after four months of use, it can still have a certain effect on him.
However, as the body's physical fitness increases, the body's adaptability and tolerance to this kind of snake stone become stronger and stronger, and now the effect is getting weaker and weaker, almost losing its effect.
"According to this trend, it is estimated that if it is used dozens of times, this kind of snake stone will become ineffective."
This thought flashed through Adil's mind.
Because he had just used a large amount of snake stone to stimulate his body, his body was still in a state of weakness and paralysis.
Fortunately, there is a resting camp around here, and there are not only a large number of guards, but also many knight apprentices like Adier, so there is no need to worry about safety during this period.
After standing there for a while, until his physical condition improved slightly, Adil endured the strong discomfort in his body and walked towards the camp behind him.
Walking into it, Adil frowned.
In the center of the camp, more than a dozen corpses were placed there quietly, looking a bit miserable.
Most of these dozen people were ordinary guards, but there were also a few knight apprentices. They were basically familiar faces in Adier's memory. At this time, they fell to the ground quietly, with a linen cloth wrapped around them.
to cover the body.
Around these corpses, no one else made a sound, and the atmosphere seemed quiet and depressing for a while.
"What just happened?"
Adil walked up to Dill who was sitting in the front and looked at his gloomy face: "How come so many people were killed all at once?"
In the front, Dill was stunned when he heard the voice. He turned around and saw Adier before he suddenly realized that the originally gloomy expression on his face became a little normal.
"There is a situation ahead. Aladi and the others were ambushed in front. More than fifty people were all gone. Only a few bodies were found."
Having said this, Dill's face looked a little ugly, and he pointed his finger at the corpses, looking a little excited.
Hearing the news, Adil couldn't help but frown, but his face remained calm: "Have you found out who did it?"
"It's not clear yet, but it is said that the traces at the scene are a bit like the behavior of those orcs. It is possible that some orcs from the front line wandered over and took the opportunity to ambush Aladi and the others." Dill shook his head and said.
"Orcs?" Adil subconsciously muttered to himself, then turned to look at the corpses.
Even though they were covered by a linen cloth, Adil's sharp eyesight and observation ability could still tell how miserable these corpses were.
The leather armor and clothes they were originally wearing were gone, and they were all taken away as trophies. Judging from the exposed corners of individual corpses, these corpses were obviously not complete, and the entire heads of some corpses were mangled with blood and flesh.
, it seems that it was eaten by wild beasts after death.
After being gnawed by wild beasts, all traces that might have been left on the body were basically destroyed, and now we can only rely on some clues to deduce what happened at that time.
The only thing Adil could see was that these corpses all died about five or six days ago, and the time was probably synchronized, and they were killed by the same group of people.
If you want to know more information, you can only know it by getting close to these corpses or even dissecting them yourself.
Adil lowered his head and thought about the possibility of dissection. Dill looked at him and thought he was worried about something. He couldn't help but said: "Adil, there is no need to worry about anything."
"When our people discovered these corpses before, they had already sent people to Lord Boria's castle. I believe someone will come here soon for reinforcements. There is no need to worry about anything."
Having said this, Dill lowered his voice and said somewhat mysteriously: "In addition, I just heard the news. This time there is a possibility that a real Lord Knight will come."
"Knight?" Subconsciously, Adier's heart moved and he couldn't help but turn around and ask: "Is there any definite news? Which adult led the team here?"
"It's not clear yet, but there are only a few adults who are still in the castle." Dill said casually.
"That's true." Adier nodded.
The status of knights is very high in this world. They are not only powerful but also rare in number. Even Count Boria only has a few men, and most of them are sent to the front line to fight against the orcs.
As far as Adil knows, there are only three knights left in the castle. One of them should be leading the team this time.
Thinking of this, Adil's eyes showed faint anticipation.
It has been almost half a year since Adil came to this world since time traveling.
In half a year, although his physical fitness has improved a lot, Adier still has no idea how to activate the life seeds, and he feels that his power is useless.
The Knight's Breathing Technique only has methods to stimulate life force and improve physical fitness, but there is no accurate description of how to actually activate the seeds of life, and there are only some vague records.
Under this situation, Adil urgently needs to find a real knight. Whether he asks the other party directly for advice or observes it through the chip, it should be able to bring him some gains.
With this expectation, days passed quickly.
Seven days later, outside the quiet camp, a long team came from afar and arrived just before noon.
There are about thirty or forty people in this team. They all wear leather armor and hold standard weapons in their hands. The walking queue is also more tidy. They look much more elite than ordinary guards.
The most eye-catching thing is the person at the front of the team.
It was a middle-aged man wearing light black armor, riding a white horse, and wearing a red cloak on his back. With his resolute and majestic face and blond hair, he looked majestic.
With a cold and determined expression on his face, he nodded slightly as he looked at the team greeting him in the camp ahead, and then slowly walked forward with the soldiers behind him.
After they passed by, the team waiting to greet them dared to make some noise.
