Chapter 1118 The truth about ‘drinking blood’

Zhou Xu returned to Black Moon City, and after arranging the construction projects of the border fortress and railway, he turned his attention to the work piled up in front of him.

This time he has not been away for long. He led the army at the beginning of spring. Now that he is back in Black Moon City, the season has not officially entered summer yet, so the accumulated work is far from over. It wasn't much, and he quickly dealt with it.

It was a new day. Except for those important documents that needed to be reviewed in person, Zhou Xu basically handed over the processing of other documents to Huo Qubing and Li Bowen.

After all, he has more important things to do in the next period of time, which is to study the enchantment of the blood-drinking sword!

Currently, he is the only one who is qualified for this job. In comparison, Huo Qubing can actually handle all the work documents. Zhou Xu knows this better than anyone else, but some things involve too much and must be handled by him. Just make a decision.

In this way, Zhou Xu quickly adjusted his working mode and generously handed over the processing power to Huo Qubing.

What this move represents is huge trust.

Huo Qubing, who knew this, was flattered. Counting the kindness given to him in the early days, Huo Qubing's loyalty has now reached ninety-five points, making him a true diehard. This also made Zhou Xu completely lost. concern.

As for Li Bowen, as a three-star level internal affairs talent with matching talents, his position in Qinzheng Palace from the very beginning was to help Huo Qubing share the work pressure, and was mainly responsible for handling some relatively simple matters. document.

Don't think this job is easy. In fact, among the documents sent every day, less than 10% are really difficult to handle, or even just a few. If it weren't for Li Bowen to help Huo Qubing share the work pressure, according to Huo Qubing's body and bones, he would be affected by his talent. , once overworked, his physical fitness will plummet and he will soon be exhausted.

Considering this, Zhou Xu also attached great importance to Li Bowen.

Fortunately, Li Bowen has not let him down in these years. Now Slowly, his loyalty has reached eighty-five points, which also allowed him to completely gain Zhou Xu's trust.

After arranging all these things, Zhou Xu quickly started research on the blood-drinking sword.

Different from the original 'Basic Weapon Blessing' that could be spread at will and allowed to be 'copied', the level of this enchantment mantra is obviously higher, so it also has a defense mechanism.

This forced Zhou Xu to sort out the knowledge reserves in his mind. This part of the inherited wisdom he had obtained before was included.

At that time, he was busy improving the triggering problem of fire enchantment, so he only glanced at other content.

After that, he was busy with the Northeast War. He was far from digesting such a huge amount of knowledge.

[Take this opportunity to digest all the knowledge of ‘programming’. 】

This whole process took more time than Zhou Xu expected.

This knowledge is equivalent to a book as thick as a dictionary. If you just want to read it carefully, you will need to spend a lot of time.

The only fortunate thing during this period is probably that all this knowledge has been organized in an extremely easy-to-understand manner, making it easy for Zhou Xu to understand it now.

But even so, it took Zhou Xu almost half a month to finally digest this part of the content.

Leaning on the recliner in his dormitory, with obvious overuse of his brain, Zhou Xu felt a sharp pain in his temples on both sides!

This forced him to rest for another day before he officially started researching the blood-drinking sword.

This research has just begun, and Zhou Xu can't help but admire that his efforts in the previous half month were not in vain.

At this time, he just took a general look, and then compared it with the knowledge in his mind. He was basically sure that the defense mechanism of this mantra was not very clever, and it was a relatively crude method.

This also makes it easy for him to crack. After easily overcoming the obstacles of the defense mechanism, a complete enchantment structure suddenly appeared in front of him.

The complexity did not exceed his initial expectations, and it was within the scope of his current capabilities. This made Zhou Xu slightly relieved.

Thanks to the digestion and absorption of that knowledge, Zhou Xu was able to analyze these enchantment mantras with twice the result with half the effort.

In the process, he quickly discovered that among the mantras that constituted this enchantment, there were many combinations of mantras that he was familiar with.

For example, 'slowly absorbing natural energy', 'toughness', and 'sharpness' are all blessing effects included in the 'basic weapon blessing'.

Of course, these three effects are all applicable to any weapon, and they are very effective.

Now that these three effects were discovered in the enchantment of this blood-drinking sword, Zhou Xu did not feel any surprise.

Based on the premise that 'Basic Weapon Blessing' is the most basic weapon enchantment effect, any other weapon-type enchantment may be an improved and upgraded version of this enchantment.

It is the same as the fire enchantment he improved on the basis of this enchantment effect.

This is undoubtedly a good thing for Zhou Xu. These familiar mantra structures can save him a lot of time and energy, and then he quickly focuses his attention on the new mantra combination of drinking Blood on.

It’s different from when I added ‘Fire Attack’ to ‘Basic Weapon Blessing’.

If you describe the operations you did before as simple addition and subtraction, then in this enchantment mantra, the relationship between the effect of 'drinking blood' and other mantra effects is equivalent to multiplication and division. .

In this enchantment mantra, 'blood drinking' has its own independent mechanism.

This set of mechanisms is independent of other enchantment effects, but at the same time it maintains a smooth cyclic connection with the entire enchantment mantra, ensuring that the effects do not interfere with each other and can work at the same time.

Similar examples have been mentioned in the knowledge. Zhou Xu cannot be regarded as completely unfamiliar with this structure.

However, compared with pure written knowledge, this first practical operation was obviously not as simple as it was said. It took Zhou Xu a lot of effort to study and understand that part of the mantra.

[It turns out that the so-called ‘blood drinking’ is actually absorbing the energy contained in the target’s blood through a special mantra...]

Everything in this world contains energy, even a blade of grass on the roadside has it, and it naturally exists in the human body. The main difference lies in the amount of energy.

These energies are distributed throughout the body, and of course are also contained in the blood.

During an attack, when the blade sees blood, it will absorb the energy contained in the opponent's blood. This is the truth of 'blood drinking'.

This is essentially similar to the Wood Elf Mage's 'energy absorption'.

It’s just that ‘energy absorption’ has a wider scope of application, but this mantra is limited to absorbing the energy contained in blood, which is why it has the name ‘blood drinking’.
