Chapter 40: The body is broken and transformed again
Behind them, a group of Northern Barbarian cavalry, led by their commander, charged towards the enemy with unstoppable momentum.
With their own commander in front, they will be fine. Maybe they can pick up the enemy's heads and get a wave of rewards.
But then a scene occurred that confused them all.
Their leader rushed forward.
He was hacked to death with a knife!
What should they do?
Still rushing or not?
Almost everyone had only one idea, and that was to turn around and run away.
Anyone who continues to charge forward now will be a fool. The commanders of the third grade Houtian have been hacked to death with one knife. I hope they can take a few more blows.
So all the remaining Northern Barbarian cavalry made the same move, tightening the reins together, choosing to rein in the cliff, and then come back to the shore again.
But they unexpectedly underestimated the speed of their charge.
Li Dao knew one thing when he was learning to get a driver's license in his previous life, that is, you must wear your seat belt when you brake suddenly when the speed is too fast.
What if there are no seat belts?
Then just wait to fly out.
At the moment, none of these Northern Barbarian cavalry were wearing seat belts, so most of them simply staged a catastrophe.
Li Dao saw what these people were thinking.
But how could he give up when it came to the meat on his lips.
Without hesitation, he picked up the black iron sword and rushed forward to kill the northern barbarian cavalry.
The knife slashed across, and blood splattered everywhere.
[Kill four enemies and obtain attributes: 0.75]
Two knives passed by, and the remaining limbs flew around.
[Kill six enemies and obtain attributes: 1.12]
Three swords passed by, and the head fell to the ground.
[Kill enemies...]
In the midst of the killing, Li Dao only heard the system prompts ringing in his ears.
Finally, after a stick of incense.
The chaotic long street became quiet.
There were only corpses everywhere, and no Northern Barbarian cavalry could escape.
"Save me...I...I don't want to die!"
At this time, a hand full of blood stretched out from the pile of corpses, and a Northern Barbarian cavalryman struggled and groaned with two legs and one arm cut off.
A sting!
Li Dao killed him with a single blow without mercy.
There is no need to leave room for dealing with these people.
In this way, a group of Northern Barbarian cavalry fell into Li Dao's hands.
There were corpses and body parts scattered dozens of meters around him, which was extremely bloody and terrifying.
"call."
Li Dao breathed a sigh of relief and slowly calmed down the restless heart in his chest.
This time he really did a great job killing more than a hundred people, and each one of them provided him with at least 0.1 or more attributes.
"panel."
[Master: Li Dao]
[Physique: 96.89]
[Available attributes: 29.14]
Li Dao felt happy when he looked at the column of available attributes.
This wave harvested nearly thirty attribute points in one go, which was almost equivalent to one-third of his overall attributes.
More importantly, with this wave of attributes, his physical strength can reach one hundred.
"Master."
At this time, Jiu'er's cry brought Li Dao back to his senses.
He raised his head and looked up, only to find that Jiu'er had gotten off the carriage at some point and came to his side, looking at him with concern.
Looking at the chaotic and disgusting corpses around him, Li Dao couldn't help but ask, "Aren't you afraid, girl?"
"afraid of what?"
"These bodies."
Jiu'er lowered her head and glanced at the corpses around her, then suddenly kicked one of the corpses. There was really no fear on her face. She said bluntly, "I'm not afraid of them. I'm more afraid of you getting hurt, Master."
After saying that, she couldn't help but start groping Li Dao.
"Master, let me check if you are injured."
"Stop, stop, stop, I'm not hurt."
"I don't believe it. Look, you are covered in blood."
"None of that is mine."
This scene seemed a bit weird, especially since both of them were standing among the corpses.
If the corpse could move, they probably wanted to get up and lie down somewhere else at this moment, and definitely didn't want to lie under the eyes of this man and woman.
A few minutes later.
After some inspections to confirm that his young master was fine, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Suddenly, a sporadic sound of footsteps reached their ears.
Looking back, I saw a group of disheveled women walking over together.
Plop!
All the women fell to their knees on the ground.
"Thank you, benefactor."
One of the women said this and kowtowed.
Like Jiu'er, they were not afraid at all when facing the corpses here.
But the difference was that Jiu'er ignored these corpses because he only had his young master in his heart.
And these women were completely filled with hatred in their hearts. They were not afraid of these corpses. Instead, they wanted to eat these people alive.
These are the people who killed their relatives and destroyed their homes.
Looking at these women, Li Dao felt pity in his heart.
But that's the reality.
This place is too close to the eastern border of Daqian. It is now mid-autumn and the weather is getting colder. Therefore, there has been constant friction between Daqian and many tribes on the border of Beiman recently.
Almost every day, some small armies from the Northern Barbarian Dynasty would sneak into Daqian territory to create chaos and plunder supplies.
This is a friction between countries. Ordinary civilians have no control over it, so they can only accept their fate.
And so far, everything he has done is to avoid accepting his fate like these people.
...
In the afternoon, near dusk.
Li Dao did not leave, but took Jiu'er to live in Taoyuan Village for one night.
On the one hand, it is to prevent and see if there are any remaining soldiers from the Northern Barbarians.
On the other hand, I want to temporarily give these innocent women a sense of security.
All the men in the village are dead, and now they can only temporarily regard Li Dao as their spiritual sustenance.
He sat on a chair at the entrance of a courtyard and watched the remaining women in Taoyuan Village packing their things.
At first he wanted to help, but the women refused.
In their words, there is no way to repay the kindness of saving lives and the kindness of revenge, so how can they be willing to let their benefactors work.
Seeing that the women were very persistent, Li Dao didn't force it.
At the same time, he also saw clearly that women in this era are different from modern women in previous generations.
Faced with the bloody remains of corpses, they could clean them up without changing their expressions.
Faced with the recent family tragedy and the pain of losing their loved ones, they gritted their teeth and continued to live, without giving up hope of survival.
In short, these women look weak on the surface, but they are terrifyingly strong on the inside.
"Master, it's time to eat."
Beside, Jiu'er suddenly brought a bowl of sumptuous food.
Li Dao took a look and saw that it was very rich, "Where did this meal come from?"
Jiu'er smiled and said, "Sister Liu made it specially for you to thank you for being your benefactor."
Li Dao shook his head and took it anyway, "If it doesn't happen next time, it will be deducted from your monthly payment."
Jiu'er's pretty face suddenly became embarrassed.
The time soon came to night.
Because of the encounter during the day, the women specially found a relatively large courtyard in the village for Li Dao to live in the master bedroom, while they crowded into several other guest rooms together.
Although they didn't show much while working during the day, their hearts were still full of fear.
Living in the same courtyard as Li Dao, their benefactor, can give them some psychological comfort.
After everyone is asleep.
Li Dao stood up suddenly in the darkness.
Glancing at the fragrant wine sleeping on the other bed, he quietly opened the door and walked out of the room, arriving alone in the courtyard.
After making sure there was no one around, he said silently, "Panel."
[Master: Li Dao]
[Physique: 96.89]
[Available attributes: 29.14]
After a brief glance, he muttered to himself again, "Add more."
Suddenly, all the available attribute points on the panel were added to the body.
[Master: Li Dao]
[Physique: 126.03 (can transform)]
[Available attributes: 0]
When he saw the changes on the panel, Li Dao secretly thought, 'Sure enough'.
The previously suspected metamorphosis occurred again.
After dozens of breaths.
When the heat of strengthening the body faded away, Li Dao focused on the three words "transformable".
"I don't know which body function will complete the transformation this time."
With this curiosity, Li Dao decisively clicked on the three words "transformable" on the panel with his mind.
The next second, a familiar tearing feeling occurred in his body.
But what was different from the last time was that Li Dao's expression this time was not as ferocious as before, probably because he had already experienced such pain.
Moreover, perhaps because his increased physical strength gave him full control over his body, this time he first discovered that a certain function in his body was changing.
"Is this... blood?"
In Li Dao's perception, a similar phenomenon occurred in his body as when his body was strengthened.
However, when his body was strengthened, there was an unknown heat flow provided by the system.
But this time he could find that his blood was undergoing some changes in his body.
He endured the severe pain in his body and lowered his head. Sure enough, he found that all the veins on his body had appeared, and the blood in them was constantly flowing.
And he discovered that with the flow of blood in his body, some red substances were squeezed out of his pores, just like the last time his skin metamorphosed and shed a layer of skin, but this time it was replaced by blood.
If he guessed correctly, these red substances should be the waste blood that has been replaced.
As time went by, more and more red substances appeared on Li Dao's body, and eventually a layer of blood scab gradually formed and became firm on the skin.
Finally, the blood transformation may have been completed, and the tearing feeling in his body began to slowly disappear.
After the tearing feeling completely disappeared, Li Dao tried to move.
Click!
After the crisp sound, fine cracks appeared on the blood scab on his body.
Li Dao squeezed it casually, and all the blood scabs in his palm turned into dust and fell to the ground.
Under his control, his body shook slightly, and all the blood scabs fell off and fell to the ground, as if a cicada was shedding its shell, which was particularly magical.
"I don't know what effects blood transformation can bring."
The skin transformation makes him immune to many injuries. It is already abnormal. Needless to say, the importance of blood to a person should bring him some surprises.
For now, the first thing to do is to get some of your own blood.
This moment put Li Dao in a difficult position, as his transformed skin continued to strengthen as his body continued to strengthen.
Now that his physique has exceeded 100, he is a little doubtful whether the few innate warriors who fought against him can break his skin if they fight against him again.
He picked up the black iron sword that he had brought out just now and put it on his finger.
One drop...isn't enough.
Three-point force...isn't enough either.
Five points...
Finally, after using up almost half of his strength, he managed to cut the sharp edge of the black iron knife close to his skin.
Although it's only a shallow amount, it should be enough to squeeze out the blood.
at the same time.
Li Dao's keen sense of smell detected a strange fragrance.
His eyes fell directly on the blood seeping out from under the skin. If there was no problem with his sense of smell, these scents were emanating from the blood on his fingers.
Could it be that after the blood transformation, his blood evolved into perfume?
Li Dao shook this thought out of his mind. Apart from this, his blood must have other effects.
But at the moment, he doesn't know how to test the efficacy of his transformed blood.
"Chirp."
At this time, a voice attracted Li Dao's attention.
He lowered his head and saw a big black mouse taking advantage of the night to do bad things, sniffing around at his feet.
Suddenly, the big black mouse seemed to smell something.
Li Dao could see the big black mouse's eyes lit up even in the dark night.
He saw that the big black mouse was about to crawl up his leg. He subconsciously stepped on the tail of the big black mouse to stop him.
Although he is not afraid of mice, if this thing crawls on him, it will be a bit alien to humans.
"Squeak!"
In itself, given the nature of a mouse, if someone steps on its tail, it will most likely struggle to escape in panic.
But the mouse at Li Dao's feet did not panic. It was still thinking of ways to climb onto Li Dao, as if there was something in Li Dao that it craved.
Li Dao soon noticed this strange phenomenon in the mice.
Is it possible...
He looked down at the drop of fragrant blood on his fingertips.
At present, the only thing on his body that might attract this mouse is this drop of blood.
Otherwise, this mouse could still fall in love with him across races.
"How about giving it a try?"
He just wanted to test the effect of his own blood after transformation. At the moment, there was no 'white mouse' coming to his door, although this 'white mouse' looked a bit dark.
Li Daobian didn't mind that the big black rat was dirty, so he picked it up with his hands.
After all, the environment in the death row camp was much dirtier than this little thing.
If this thing had appeared at that time, everyone would have rushed to get it. After all, it was also a piece of meat, so how could they despise it as dirty.
It was also before the system appeared that he was unable to catch mice, otherwise he would have been eaten alive based on his situation at the time.
After holding the mouse in his hand, he tentatively handed over the finger with his own blood.
Perhaps because he felt something, the mouse wrinkled its nose and suddenly started struggling wildly in his hand, stretching its neck toward the bloody finger.
If Li Dao hadn't held it tightly with his hands, it would have flown out long ago.
Li Dao exerted slight force with his fingers, and he opened the mouse's mouth directly.
Put your bloody finger on the mouse's mouth and squeeze it gently, and the drop of blood will fall into the mouse's mouth.
Then he let go of the mouse and placed it on the stone table nearby.
After being put down, the mouse did not flee in a hurry, but lay quietly on the spot.
After waiting for a while, Li Dao frowned slightly.
Could it be that the transformed blood really just smells good and has no other effect?
Just when Li Dao had this idea, he suddenly noticed that the mouse was moving.
"Squeak!"
I saw a cry coming from the mouse's mouth, and suddenly it began to roll over on the stone table, twitching from time to time, and it looked very painful.
Li Dao frowned and kept staring at the mouse.
After a dozen breaths, his eyes narrowed.
The mouse suddenly stopped struggling, and a magical scene appeared.
The size of the mouse actually began to swell, and its limbs and tail became thicker, as if the whole thing had mutated.
What surprised Li Dao even more was that he actually noticed an inexplicable sense of closeness from a mouse.
