Chapter 791: Holy Blood

Chapter 791: Chapter 791: Holy Blood

The shooting pain in his wrist could not be eliminated by blocking my the nerves.

This pain originated from the “Holy Sword”.

This indicates that the count’s post-acquired Holy Sword ability has been transferred to Han Dong to some extent.

Generally speaking, knights breaking the breed outside the city, mostly use the chaotic aura within them to break the breed skin.

The influence and inheritance of power usually do not exceed 30%.

But what Han Dong absorbed was a “Mature Body-Demon”, and he also deliberately retained the Count’s consciousness, with the special compatibility of the Faceless Skull, naturally it was different.

After adapting to the pain in his wrist.

Han Dong, wrapped in a bird’s beak coat, used a disguise to make a middle-aged man’s voice.

“Back then, if it weren’t for Olivia stabbing that detestable blood descendant with the ‘Holy Sword’, I wouldn’t have survived…

If I was stronger then, maybe we all could have survived.”

The words were filled with regret and self-blame, showing his acting talent to the fullest.

This statement directly led Master Buckle to sigh and slowly express his inner feelings:

“My elder sister’s talent and strength were above mine.

Under the circumstances where the ‘Holy Sword’ is almost ineffective for humans, my older sister achieved the ninth place in the ‘Knight Competition’ with pure swordsmanship.

Furthermore, my sister’s ‘Holy Sword’ is also the most unique…

Hearing the statement of the master of the house, Han Dong was slightly puzzled.

It seemed as if the ‘Holy Sword’ itself wasn’t a mix of swordsmanship and sacred magic, but a special ability mixed in the bloodline.

Seeing his chance, Han Dong continued to ask:

“Isn’t the ‘Holy Sword’ a combination of sacred properties and swordsmanship?”

“No.

Every direct or indirect member of our Hall family has an ancient bloodline flowing in their bodies, which is an indelible curse and a blessing that helps us survive in the Eternal Night.”

At this point.

Not only Han Dong, but even Captain Shaia showed an interested look.

“Bloodline in the Fate Space?”

“One could say that, the family has chosen to keep the matter of the bloodline secret… but, since Captain Shaia will be sent off as the ‘Fourth General’ tomorrow, and you are my sister’s comrade in arms, I will not hide it.

The origin of ‘Blood of the Holy Sword’ is our family’s ancestor, the first vice captain of the Holy Knights Group, [Fisker Hall].

According to the documents left by our ancestors, the ancestor was initially self-cultivating sacred sword techniques. After becoming a formal knight, he entered a ‘Large World’ that accommodated more than a dozen fate teams at the same time.

There, because of violating a taboo, he fell into a forbidden area called the [Tomb of the Holy Messenger].

He bypassed the layers of mechanisms, executed the white monster in the tomb.

At the bottom of the tomb, he found a special secret room.

The wall is filled with ancient text, and a neatly sealed coffin contains a corpse that had been dead for hundreds of years, yet still remains fresh.

Because the ancient text on the tomb wall is mostly missing.

The origin of the body is unknown.

It could roughly be read that if you want to leave the tomb, you must choose one person to perform the ‘Blood Transfusion Ritual’, using the ancient device in the secret room to inject all the blood in the body into the individual.

The risk is unknown.

It is also unknown if a consciousness takeover will occur due to the blood transfusion.

Considering the peculiar Holy aura in the tomb, and a variety of Holy-related terms, the ancestor who possessed sacred properties at that time was also the best candidate.

Unable to escape the tomb, the ancestor stood out decisively without worrying about the consequences.

Successful blood transfusion.

After the ancestor returned to the Holy City, his strength increased dramatically in a short time, and even became the vice captain after ten years.

Although it looks glamorous to outsiders, we in the family know very well… the ‘Holy Blood’ that existed in the ancestor’s body was actually a never-ending curse.

The council who knew the facts also issued a ban on our family, forbidding us from spreading such bloodline to the outside world, and only allowing in-family development.”

‘Blood Transfusion’

With the keyword given, the mystery is solved.

It may be because the count has sucked the female knight’s blood, or perhaps the female knight gathered the most powerful Holy Sword at the last moment, stabbed into the count’s body, and directly merged the ‘Holy Blood’ into the count’s fresh blood and body.

The master of the house continued:

“This kind of blood brings us nothing but endless agony.

If we fail to kill the evil within a certain period, the Holy Blood will stimulate our senses, causing severe pain all over our bodies… This means that members of our family have no other choice but to embark on the road of the knight, engaging in never-ending battles with demons.

Also, not all descendants’ bodies can bear the[Holy Blood].

‘Child mortality’ is a common occurrence in our family.”

At this point in the explanation of the family head,

The Count’s consciousness within Han Dong jumped out again: “Che… this Count doesn’t have these side effects, but rather, the influx of Holy Blood allowed this Count to break free from the ‘original owner’s’ absolute control on a conscious level.

Ultimately, it’s still because their understanding and control of the blood is not enough.”

Han Dong immediately followed up with, “Then why did you pierce your own wrist with a cross, sealing this ability? It must have been very painful, wasn’t it?”

“…Get out!”

Han Dong now needed to consider this.

The so-called Holy Blood and Holy Sword indeed, can bring a boost in strength and be largely targeted at the demons beyond the city walls. Still, Han Dong didn’t want to shoulder an unremovable burden because of this.

“I’ll take a look first.”

At the bottom level of the family crypt.

In a sealed tomb room, he saw a stone coffin labeled with「Olivia Hall」.

The Count inside Han Dong’s body was already sensing something intensely, constantly urging Han Dong to ‘get on with it’.

“Those family members with a high purity of[Blood of the Sacred Sword]flowing in them do not experience any decay after death.. my sister was one of them.”

As the family head stood in front of the coffin, his eyes moist… scenes of his sister taking care of him back in the day immediately resurfaced.

At that moment, a drop of fresh blood secretly invaded the back of his neck.

Captain Shaia used a ‘blood controlling’ technique causing this elite knight to completely lose consciousness.

“Nicholas, start your business.”

“Is… is this really okay?” Han Dong was a morally upright person. He couldn’t do such a thing as disrespecting a corpse without the family’s consent.

“Listening to their description, it’s clear that the Hall family has fallen into some unknown blood curse.

If my senses are not wrong, the[Olivia Hall]buried here as a corpse has not really died, her soul is still trapped in the blood.

What you need to do is to help her free… This is a good thing.

Besides, I also want to see what will happen next… bringing you here in the middle of the night has interrupted the precious time of this group leader, hurry up and get to work.”

“Alright.”

In fact, Han Dong himself was somewhat impatient.

The pain in his wrist had reached its limit.

When pulling out the coffin, a golden-haired female corpse, almost identical to a living person appeared before Han Dong’s eyes. The blood inside her body was flowing normally.

“Miss Jane…” For some reason, Han Dong suddenly thought of an old friend.

At that moment.

Under the urge of the Count and driven by consciousness, Han Dong slowly placed his right wrist on it.

For a while.

The blood flowing in the female corpse’s body, like threads, slowly drilled out from the pores, gathering towards Han Dong’s right wrist… slowly engraving the ‘Red Cross’.

The[volume]of Holy Blood seemed to be a little insufficient.

Seeing this scene.

Captain Shaia had a smirk on her face, “If you want to do a good thing, you should do it thoroughly. Let me help you.”

With a wave of her hand,

All the coffins in the crypt of the Hall family were moved out.

The holy blood flowing in all corpses, all gathered around.

Those corpses, drained of some components of Holy Blood, surprisingly showed a relieved smile, turning into dry corpses in a short time.

“[Holy Blood]injection detected, ‘Right Arm – Ghoul Arm (G Virus Modification)’ is evolving…”

This Holy Blood flowing from his right wrist couldn’t quickly take over his body as usual.

Instead, it appeared to be in a ‘suppressed’ state, confined in the right arm.

The one suppressing these blood fragments was Han Dong’s Faceless Skull.
