Chapter 211 Injury

Chapter 211: Injury

When Roning arrived at Black Earth Town, Riedal was lying on the bed, sleeping. This knight, known for his short orange hair and robust stature, now had a face as pale as paper, devoid of his usual heroic spirit.

Although his left arm was bandaged, the bandage was still stained with blood. Ten days had passed and the wound was still bleeding.

No wonder Riedal was exhausted later and even needed someone to carry him when walking.

Roning gently lifted the man's arm and untied the bandage.

Tom was right, the wound on his arm was indeed showing signs of festering.

"Under normal circumstances, an injury like this would have already begun to heal."

This puncture wound had not damaged the bone. Given the Silver Knight's powerful recovery ability, it would not be a problem under normal circumstances.

Although Ronin's movements were gentle, they still woke Riedal.

"My lord, you are here."

He tried to sit up, but his right arm was too weak to support him.

"Lie down, stay still."

Roning patted the other man's hand and took out a healing spell scroll and used it.

A gentle light shone on the wound, but there seemed to be no sign of change.

What on earth did the other party use to inflict such an injury? Roning looked closer and noticed that the wound was slightly black. "Could it be that the other party's sword was coated with poison?"

"It's probably not poison."

Riedal denied it, "I feel like it's a special kind of fighting spirit that can corrode my flesh and blood, and prevent my fighting spirit from stimulating the healing of my flesh and blood."

As the injured party, Riedal was very clear about his condition.

When Roning heard this, he thought of Lu Lans's injuries. The other party's whole body was also corroded by a special energy and could not be healed for a long time.

"When you use your fighting spirit to stimulate the wound, will that special fighting spirit devour your fighting spirit and become stronger?"

He couldn't help but ask.

If Riedal was also affected by the Soul-Devouring Surge, it would be troublesome.

"No."

Riedal denied again, "It won't consume my fighting spirit. To be precise, it has imprisoned the flesh near my wound, turning it into a special stone that fighting spirit cannot penetrate."

Simply put, it's like insulation.

Roning secretly breathed a sigh of relief. As long as it wasn't the Soul-Devouring Surge, it would be a blessing in disguise.

"Where is the wound on your chest?" Roning lifted the blanket and took a look.

"The wound on my chest was similar to the wound on my arm at first, but it got better on the third day. Now it has healed as my fighting spirit was able to pass through it."

Roning saw that the 20-centimeter-long wound near the abdomen had already scabbed over.

It was strange that one wound could heal while another could not.

Why are there so many strange things in that valley?

"Sir, I guess it's their strength that caused the two injuries to be different."

Riedal had analyzed it carefully a few days before his return.

"The wound on my chest was caused by the bronze knight, and the puncture wound on my left arm was caused by the silver knight. They have different strengths."

"Also, wound depth may be a key factor."

Roning nodded. What the other party said made sense.

The stronger the strength, the more potent the special fighting spirit will be;

The deeper the wound, the more of the opponent's fighting spirit will invade the flesh, and the more serious the injury will be.

So until now, there had been no improvement in the injury on Riedal's arm.

"My Lord, I suspect... in addition to the Silver level, there are beings of the same level, or even higher level, in that cave."

"Because during the battle..."

Riedal, who had been talking, suddenly began breathing heavier and looked even more tired.

"We'll discuss the analysis after you recover. Now you should rest!"

While Roning stopped the other man from talking, he asked Tom to bring a new bandage to re-bandage the wound.

"George has gone to Swamp Town to inform Elrond, and he will probably be here tonight."

As the only great physician in Wubei Territory and a magician of light attribute, this difficult matter could only be handled and studied by Elrond.

Fortunately, although Riedal was weak, his injuries had not worsened to the point where they were irreparable.

Considering that the abdominal wound suddenly improved, perhaps the left arm injury could also improve eventually.

I just don't know how long he can hold on.

Roning bandaged the wound and then led his men out of the room.

"Wharton, Dandy, you two stay here and notify me if anything happens."

"Yes, sir!"

"Tom, go ask the cook at Black Earth Village to make some barley porridge tonight, and also some broth or something easy to eat."

"I'll go right away!"

After arranging the care of Riedal, Roning rode on his Cloud-Stepping Horse to the north of Black Earth Town for an inspection.

It was hard for him to believe that there was such a strange place behind his territory.

Judging from Tom and Riedal's description, that group of people were obviously of different identities from Joffrey, Jenny, and others.

Moreover, even if the other party has bronze, silver, or even gold-level players, it is unlikely they are the power of escaped nobles.

The key is that they can't be killed...

"It's not that they can't be killed."

Roning frowned, recalling that Riedal's Explosive Flame Slash blew one of them into pieces.

He was keenly aware that the power of the Explosive Flame Slash could not directly blast a person into pieces, and there must be something worth pondering.

"The sword couldn't kill him, but he was blown into powder by the fighting skills."

"Could it be that their bodies are very special, and when a huge amount of external fighting spirit invades their bodies, they will self-destruct?"

This situation of turning into powder is very similar to an explosion from the inside out, so Roning made this analysis.

"Do you want to go to this mysterious valley?"

Roning returned to Black Earth Town and asked Tom to gather a team of infantry here to strengthen patrols in the north, especially at night.

During this period, he was also thinking about how to deal with the mysterious valley.

Of course, we have to go. We can't leave such an unsettling factor in our territory.

The threat posed by these beings is much greater than that posed by Warcraft.

All Roning had to think about was when to go.

Today, Wubei's high-end combat power includes two silver knights, a chief magician, and Roning himself, a bronze knight and a great magician.

In addition, he also had a sixth-level Fire Dragon Swallowing the Sky spell scroll in his hand, which was enough to repel a Golden Knight.

Roning was confident enough to investigate such high-end combat power.

However, to be on the safe side, he decided to wait for more than ten days.

On the one hand, he had to wait for Riedal's injuries to heal, and on the other hand, in a dozen days or so, he would be able to accumulate enough attribute points to become a silver knight and chief magician in one fell swoop.

At that time, he would feel more confident in his exploration.

Time passed slowly, and in the middle of the night, the sound of horse hooves echoed through the quiet Heitu Town.

But then Elrond came riding into the town on his warhorse, holding a torch.

Following behind him were George, Jenny, and Kurami.

Riedal's injury was a big deal. They came here to visit him and to see if Roning had any missions to assign to them.
