Chapter 10 Dragon's Blood
"Magic is the truth of the world. The more magic you master, the clearer your understanding of the truth, and the more taboos and unknowns you see..."
"If a magician does not have strong self-control, becomes curious about the mysterious unknown and untouchable taboos, and puts it into action, his thinking and will will be distorted by terror..."
"Even if you can restrain your desires, you still cannot avoid the risk of falling into madness."
"In this case, faith will undoubtedly strengthen our will and protect our minds from terror..."
While driving, Veronica warned Wayne not to get carried away. His journey to magic has just begun and there are still many things to pay attention to.
Perhaps it was because Wayne gained magic power and became an insider, and everyone no longer had the same relationship as strangers before, so Veronica's attitude towards Wayne became a little friendlier.
Not much, just some.
The reason was that diary. The female college student was taught a harsh lesson, and she couldn't help but gnash her teeth every time she thought about it.
————
The blue car drove on the highway at an average speed of fifty kilometers per hour. In this era without navigation, it was undoubtedly painful for novice drivers.
It was true that Veronica could drive, but she had never been on this road before. She fumbled her way forward according to road signs and maps. During this period, she took wrong turns several times and wasted a lot of time.
The car turned like a turtle, and the lightning capture plan ended in failure as soon as it was implemented. Tonight, the group will spend the night in the small town of Kafuno.
Approaching a small town, the vehicle stopped on the side of the road. Several people ate to replenish energy and adjust their status in order to deal with the possibility of a sneak attack by the Death Walker.
Wayne took out the love potato lunch box that William prepared for him, squatted on the roadside and ate it. In the car, he ate a lot of compressed biscuits, which were made of cooked oats, flour, jam, and margarine. They had a great texture. Very bad, the more I eat, the thirstier I become.
In this way, potatoes are not so disgusting.
Veronica leaned against the car, holding a sandwich and eating it in small bites. She looked very elegant when eating. Even if there was no dining table, there were still a lot of table manners to follow.
In stark contrast, it was not Wayne but William, who showed off a large bag of chocolates and flirted with Veronica while eating them.
What's so delicious about sandwiches? Chocolate and beautiful girls are a dream combination!
Veronica was so angry that it was obvious that she was hungry for chocolate, but in order to stay in shape and avoid excessive sugar intake, she had to suppress her desire for desserts.
"Veronica, this thing tastes much better than a sandwich!"
William stuck his head and grinned at Veronica, his teeth were covered with dark chocolate, and his breathing was sweet.
If you don't seek death, you won't die. Veronica was aroused. She smiled at William, put down the sandwich in her hand calmly, took out the silk scarf and wiped her mouth.
William frowned, turned around and ran away without saying a word.
Before he could even take two steps, he was knocked down by a flying kick from the charging Veronica. He was groaning and begging for mercy from the pain of another ankle lock.
William is two meters tall, with big arms, round waist and muscular body, as strong as a bear. He is a golden-haired strongman who weighs more than 200 kilograms. Veronica is 1.7 meters tall barefoot, with fair skin, thin waist and long legs, and weighs less than half of William.
As a result, every time William flirted with someone, he was violently suppressed by Veronica. She was a weak woman with both speed and strength.
"I was wrong, I was wrong, Veronica, let go, my leg is going to be broken!"
"Hmph, do you dare to do it next time?"
"I dare you next time."
"..."
“Ahhhh————”
Wayne finished eating the love bento, compressed biscuits and canned food and continued eating. While eating, he watched William commit suicide and said happily: "Veronica is so amazing, is this also magic?"
"No, Veronica's magic is sealed by a curse, and she cannot cast powerful magic. She can only rely on some simple magic props to fight the enemy. The reason why she can suppress William is all due to her physical fitness." Monica stepped on Catwalk came to Wayne, licked his paws and began to wash his face. Monica avoided the sight of several people and ate alone in the car without being allowed to look at her. Wayne suspected that she had secretly hidden small dried fish.
"physical fitness?!"
Wayne asked in surprise: "Are you sure it's not a magic effect? How did she exercise? Look at her arms and legs, there are no muscles?"
"She has dragon blood."
"Dragon...blood?"
Wayne struggled to swallow the compressed biscuit in his mouth, and the image of a fire-breathing dragon appeared in his mind, and he held his breath: "Is there a dragon in this world?"
What a dangerous world. Yesterday it was a magician, today it is a dragon. Tomorrow, will there be an angel blowing the doomsday trumpet?
"No."
"Where can the dragon blood come from without the dragon?"
"Inherited from her mother."
"Her mother is a dragon?" Wayne was shocked. It turned out that his father-in-law was a dragon knight.
"It's human."
"..."
Wayne: (￣俣)
Listen to your words, just like listening to your words, you can leave them here and here!
Wayne rolled his eyes wildly and said angrily: "The last time I heard such constructive remarks was the last time. You know, scientific research shows that every minute people waste is equivalent to wasting sixty seconds. "
The few people rested on the spot for an hour, and then the blue car set off again. According to the mark on the map, they were still thirty kilometers away from the small town of Kafuno.
The woods on both sides of the road gradually became denser, because it was the end of winter and early spring had not yet arrived. Except for the fir trees that were not affected by the season, there was little green in the barren woods. Thick fallen leaves buried half of the tree trunks, and there was a smell in the air. The smell of natural decay.
This time, Wayne was driving.
Veronica sat in the back seat, holding Monica in her arms and arranging a new identity. She and William were siblings, Monica still played the role of a harmless pet cat, and Wayne was the driver, passing by the small town of Kafuno to rest for a night. , and will leave tomorrow morning after refueling.
In Veronica's plan, Blood Mike can be caught tonight, the curse can be broken in the early morning, and the car will be driven away at dawn.
Any plan is perfect before it is implemented, and Wayne is not optimistic about it. For example, Veronica's previous lightning capture operation plan failed because she didn't know the way.
As a newcomer, Wayne had no say. Seeing that William and Monica both approved of the plan, he didn't say much.
Rumble————
A bright light flashed, followed by a huge roar, and gloomy thunderclouds descended from the sky at some point, and the entire earth was shrouded in darkness.
"I was shocked. Why did it thunder suddenly?"
Wayne narrowed his eyes slightly. The moment the lightning broke out, the world in his eyes suddenly blurred. Fortunately, he observed civilized traffic rules and kept his hands on the steering wheel at all times, so he could stabilize the front of the car and avoid hitting a tree.
Snap!
A gray and translucent hand lifted up the hood, the deformed palm leaving dazzling black and red bloodstains...
Judging from the posture, there is a Piao under the car, and he is about to climb up and grab the steering wheel!
Wayne's eyes suddenly shrank, he cursed the owner of the car dealership in his heart, and his breathing became rapid.
Damn it, you said that for the Queen's sake, this car doesn't have a soul ring attached to it!
