Blood Stamp (2)

smart.

As I quietly knocked on the door, as promised, a gloomy butler appeared and greeted Rokhan. And soon Baron Truell came down. It looked like he had put his sick daughter to sleep.

“It looks like you have better skills than you think because you have prepared what I said. After all, you are a crossroad defender! If so, I’ll ask you one more thing. Take the ingredients you’ve gathered so far and go to Tritika. Give him these and he’ll make something for you. You can bring it to me.”

[Restoration of Baron Truell’s Little Daughter 3] [Quest]

Baron Truell has asked you for help to save his young daughter. Deliver the cursed troll’s blood, hot sheep’s blood, and thick sheepskin to Shaman Tritika and get one item.

-Completion condition: Deliver the goods to Shaman Tritika

-Reward: 10 gold

“Leave it to me.”

With a courageous reply, Lokan received a box containing all three items he had given him. And he was also secretly told about the place where the shaman Tritika was.

‘Baby, you’re playing tricks.’

Baron Truell had a reason for being so cautious. It was because the shaman Tritika was a ‘goblin’.

Goblins, along with orcs, undead, and trolls, are a race of the Black Dragonflight that confronts the Golden Lion camp. In other words, it is no different than the main enemy of humans.

No matter how much they try to save their young daughter, even if it is not harmful to the camp of the Golden Lion, it could be a problem if known. I hadn’t seen it, so most of them would have listened to it thinking it was a story.

But it wasn’t Lokan.

‘What does it take to save a young daughter? It’s all bullshit.’

Because he knew the whole story.

First of all, Baron Truell had no children.

Little Daughter Clearly, there was a child sleeping in the upper room, but she was not Baron Truell’s daughter.

She was rather a kidnapped child. It is also very tasty food.

‘Why didn’t I think of it then?’

Actually, there were hints. The fact that the baron only sees people at ‘night’ was a very visible hint. Everyone was blinded by the large amount of gold that was the quest reward, so they couldn’t see it properly.

vampire.

Baron Truell’s true identity was a vampire. And the girl who had been kidnapped and disguised as her daughter had “special blood” flowing. Because she was none other than a ‘high elf’.

Among the elves, they have a very noble bloodline. Just by drinking that blood, vampires can expect great growth.

And the quest that Baron Truell gave to users was a kind of pre-work to dilute her too sacred blood.

Otherwise, the moment the high elf’s blood runs down her esophagus, she’ll melt his five intestines and flesh.

If it was a vampire that was already strong enough, it was too greedy to aim for a high elf at the level of Baron Truell.

‘It was a valley of mist.’Lokan, who changed his expression the moment he left Truell’s villa, moved according to his instructions. He began moving rapidly towards the Valley of the Mist, where the goblin shaman Tritika was said to be.

Unlike Baron Truell, you can meet him during the day, but he wants to end it as quickly as possible.

[Mist-Eating Hyena][Lv 115]

Kuh hun!

But the road was not smooth. As the name suggests, the Valley of Fog was a thick foggy area with a short visibility, and there were monsters ranging from 110 to 120 levels in it.

‘It’s annoying.’

If you look at their stats, attack power, and defense, they’re no match for Lokan, but the fog obscured their vision, and the number was quite large, so I was able to hold onto my ankles quite a bit.

“Rush of Destruction!”

Because of that, Rokhan pushed him with his body. Whether it is ten or twenty, they want to move with ease and then wipe them all away at one point.

off!

Of course, those caught in the middle of it also stretched out as they were, but Lokan was not very satisfied.

Lokan loves Berserkers more than anyone or any other class, but the only disappointment was that he couldn’t have fun in Da-il.

He might get better with his choices later on, but for now he’s had no choice but to feel uncomfortable.

That’s why I’m worried about being overtaken by the lead group who will start group hunting.

‘Wait, is there really no way’

A question popped into Rokhan’s mind as he repeated the charge and slaughter. The thought he had taken for granted began to ripple.

‘perhaps… … .’

At the same time, one idea passed. Maybe a pretty interesting picture will come out.

He continued the idea and hurried inside.

“Stop it.”

And after a while, Tritika, the goblin shaman, appeared at the edge of the Valley of Mist.

“No surprise. It was not fortune-telling that someone would come.”

Tritika looked like a typical shaman. She was ignorant as she held a shabby but venerable wooden wand and draped her robe dangling from her lavish trinkets.

And as if she knew that Lokan was coming, she greeted us with a bright smile.

“Baron Truell has sent me here.”

Rokhan didn’t even want to set the blade. The battle ax he was holding was tied behind his back and he grabbed the material box he had brought with both hands and handed it to him.

“Ugh, just like I said. Wait a minute.”

Having received the box completely, he spread the sheep’s skin on what appeared to be a workbench, applied some medicine, and performed a light magic spell. Then the parchment, which was a single sheet, began to stick to one large sheet.

It was a sight that could only be described as magic.

And what he took out was a brush. I wanted to take out a thick brush, so I first dipped in plenty of hot sheep’s blood and drew something on the parchment. Then it’s the blood of the cursed troll.

Thick drops of sweat were forming on Tritika’s forehead, which was sequentially writing certain patterns and characters using two kinds of blood.

This is because the very work of drawing patterns and characters is a magic. Thanks to this, he was exposed defenseless, but Lokan waited patiently. May the spell be completed.

What Lokan was really trying to get through this quest was neither experience nor money, but this, [Blood Imprint].

“Okay, it’s done. Take it now.”

[Blood Imprint] [Rare] [Quest]

A tattoo-like engraving of blood is engraved on the body to imbue the body with a strong vampire energy.

– Activates [Blood Imprint] effect when used

It was an item that would further strengthen the power of the vampire Truel.

Of course, when you take it, he says that this is not enough and asks him to bring other ingredients to stain the high elf’s blood, but Lokan had no intention of agreeing to it.

If you listen to the guy’s request until your feet sweat, you’ll end up with a few bucks, but in that case, it’s more profitable to intercept his.

[You have used Blood Stamp.][You have permanently acquired ‘Life Absorb on Hit (3%)’][Engraving cannot be enhanced or deleted.][The maximum number of engravings that can be acquired is determined according to the type.][Current number of imprints: 1/5]

Because of that, Rokhan immediately used the blood imprint that Tritika had given him to himself. Since the engraving cannot be erased, it was necessary to choose carefully, but there was no reason for Rokhan to hesitate. Although it was a bit disappointing to get the ‘Imprint of Life’ he was originally trying to get, he had already obtained more than expected titles and had acquired the ability to replace it.

‘Because the engraving that absorbs life is more precious.’

Anyway, it was a long time later that the engraving system started to be used properly, and among them, the ‘life force absorption’ ability is very precious.

In particular, the ability to absorb as much as 3% of attack power was at a level that was difficult to find even later. Moreover, it occupied only one engraving slot.

Since it is a quest item, the level is set high, but Lokan gulps it down without conveying it.

After it was known that someone accidentally used this in a previous life, Condor came forward and downgraded it to 1%. Those who had already obtained it had no choice but to do so.

“Come on, you… … !”

Tritica, who had worked so hard to create the blood imprint, had a puzzled expression on her face, but it seemed that he who foretold the future didn’t know either. Today is going to be his ancestral day.

spatula.

After confirming that the blood engraving was working properly, Lokan immediately decapitated him.

He had already lost a lot of strength to use his great magic, so he couldn’t even resist.

In an instant, the vitality ran out, and an item called [Tritica’s Neck] entered the inventory.

“This is a hundred times better than earning a penny.”Lokan immediately returned to the Crossroads using the Return Scroll.

He thought about returning from some more hunting, but at least he wasn’t here. He would rather have fought one-on-one, because he was also a spectator on the battlefield where visibility was not possible due to the fog as it is now.

But he didn’t go straight to the garrison. Because if he showed Tritika’s neck to Malkin, he would go after Baron Truell right away.

Killing Baron Truell and reclaiming the kidnapped high elves is a must, but it’s midnight. He had no reason to create an advantageous situation for the enemy.

Knowing Malkin’s hasty personality, he turned to the shopping district instead of the garrison.

‘You are doing a good job.’

Once, Lokan stopped by his own shop. Few people have stopped by yet, but he was trying to check the products that entered and left the vending machine.

And he confirmed that there was a larger amount of gyro pole leather than he had expected. Yes, it was a little less than thirty, but to get this number, it was said that at least fifty had been caught.

If only the tricks were followed, it seemed that the treatment of 500 animals could be sufficiently achieved in six to seven days instead of ten days.

‘Was it medicine?’

And potions and herbs were sold quite a bit. The price was almost double the market price, but seeing that a lot of quantity was missing, it seemed that the hunting speed was increased while holding on to the potion foot.

‘If you have enough money, it’s the fastest.’

It wasn’t a recommended way to buy time as money, but it wasn’t too bad considering the benefits of getting out early.

It wasn’t exhausted enough to replenish the items yet, so Lokan just checked and went out. He went to the Berserkers Guild to implement what he had envisioned.

Fourth Combination Skill.

to make it

“Force and charge, a solid body, and… … Please give me the Twist Attack skill book.”

At first glance, it was a combination that did not match well. However, he paid the price and received the skill book, Lokan had a playful expression on his face like a mischievous person.

“Creating Combination Skills.”

[Please specify an action clip or skill book for the desired skill combination.]

Lokan, who took out his weapon for a while and made an action clip, finished the skill combination with an excited voice.

“Register action clips. Force, solid body, charge, twist attack.”

[Combination is possible.][Please see the expected usage of the combination skill and click the Combination Complete button.][When the combination is completed, the skill book disappears and the combination skill is automatically acquired.]

I was very satisfied with the appearance and explanation on the screen. I don’t know what it would be like to actually use it, but it seemed to be able to solve my problems neatly.

“Combination complete!”

[Please specify the name of the combination skill.]

Lokan shouted the name of the fourth combination skill with a pounding heart.

“Wheel Wind!”
