Chapter 118 Danger!
"Blood talent isn't as simple as you think."
Michelle recalled some of her experiences in the Eastern Xia Kingdom and patiently explained, "You should have inquired about the abilities of Blood Talents, right?"
Wang Ye nodded. He had heard of it before. Warriors with the Blood Talent could recirculate their own blood, making their strength and stamina endless. They could also heal their injuries by absorbing blood. On the battlefield, those guys were very troublesome. As long as it wasn't a fatal blow, they could continuously absorb the blood of those around them to restore their strength and heal their injuries.
They even enhance their strength, making them an extraordinary profession born for the battlefield!
"Then why do you think the Imperial government so severely suppresses this talent instead of trying to control it?"
"Huh?" Wang Ye was taken aback. That was indeed a question. With such a talent suited for the battlefield, why didn't the Empire make use of it?
To say it contradicts one's faith is utter nonsense. Take the Rhine Empire, which adheres to the Sun Cult, for example. Although the empire has only one faith and forbids the spread of cults, it tacitly approves of other supernatural abilities, such as shadows. Otherwise, without professions like shadow doctors and necromancers, how would the empire handle its paranormal events on a daily basis? Would everyone truly be purified?
The Demon Hunter is another example. Humans can take the power of demons, so theoretically they are no different from demons, but they are packaged as brave and fearless warriors. Isn't it just because the Demon Hunter talent is useful?
If that's the case, why is the Blood Talent completely banned?
"Because of blasphemy..." Mihir sneered, "The royal families of the seven kingdoms all have special bloodlines that can guarantee that every offspring born will have good extraordinary talents. For example, the golden bloodline of the Rhine Empire is the best embryo for the blazing sun talent. The high priests in the blazing sun cult are all members of the royal family, and the chief judges and prosecutors in the judicial department are also members of the royal family. This is a monopoly business that even the noblest nobles cannot imitate."
"Could it be..." Wang Ye immediately understood.
Bloodline talent... allows one to steal the bloodlines of the noble!
"In the Kingdom of Shire, there is a type of warrior called the Dragonblood Warrior. People in the north should be very familiar with this creature. Although dragons are extinct, many magical beasts still have some remnants in their bodies. Those who frequently hunt magical beasts know that anything carrying even a little dragon blood is extremely dangerous. But for hunters with blood talent, it's a different story."
Wang Ye immediately understood what the other party meant.
Hunters with a talent for blood can gradually accumulate dragon blood from magical beasts. So that's how the Dragonblood Warriors of the Xiaer Kingdom came to be.
"Of course, as far as I know, becoming a Dragonblood Warrior requires a long period of accumulation, as well as a massive amount of resources and luck. To ensure the purity of the dragon blood within the body, without mixing with other blood, and only absorbing dragon blood, training such a warrior is extremely resource-intensive. After all, at lower levels, one must hunt dragonblood beasts while ensuring that other blood is not mixed within the body, which is a huge challenge. So, although it seems like everyone has a chance, in reality, it is still a profession that can only be inherited by some nobles." Michelle sighed softly, "Even in the so-called most free and democratic country, the Xiaer Kingdom, it cannot escape the fate of being monopolized by nobles."
"This world..."

Dragonblood Warrior...
Wang Ye was somewhat tempted. He had heard that as long as one could become a Dragonblood Warrior, one could obtain a title of earl or higher in the Xiaer Kingdom and directly acquire a fief. The Xiaer Kingdom was the strongest country, and if one could become a noble there, he and the players in the black market might really have a place to breathe.
"But you also need to think it through." Michelle looked at the boy who seemed to have his blood boiling and smiled slightly. "This path is not simple. Blood Talent is a being wanted by the Seven Kingdoms, so you must keep it a secret from the public. You must be patient and restrained. Before you become strong enough, you must be patient and repressed. This process will be long and painful, and there is also the possibility that you will not get results." Wang Ye grinned.
Dog Egg is the best ranger, he has always believed that. With her help, he is confident that he can slowly become a true Dragonblood Warrior.
Michelle nodded; he had already seen the answer in the other person's eyes. He then said, "Ask someone else. Time is of the essence. If you haven't decided yet, you can wait until I come back in a month."
The other players dared not delay. In this situation, time was money, and falling behind one step at a time meant falling behind every step at a time. They quickly made their choices.
More than half of them chose to become demon hunter rangers, a profession they often saw in the north. This profession was also the easiest to be recruited by the military. Even unregistered individuals could join the army as lieutenants as long as they were not members of a cult, and had the opportunity to become nobles.
One-third of the people chose the path of the elemental ranger. Not everyone wanted to be on the battlefield, after all, the death rate on the battlefield was too high, and the military merit noble sounded incredibly glorious, but once you were on the battlefield, you couldn't stop. Whenever the noble needed you, you had to respond to the call to fight.
While it sounds prestigious, it's not everyone's ideal choice. Most people prefer a more comfortable life, like being a captain at sea.
The Elemental Ranger identity offers a great chance to earn a ship and become a conqueror of the seas, which is much more interesting than being a military noble. Many players prefer to explore this vast world rather than become a noble and continue to exploit those below them.
A very small number of people chose the Holy Light talent, which is said to guarantee becoming a member of the Church of the Radiant Sun.
Becoming a member grants the opportunity to enter the Ministry of Justice, a path to nobility without the need for war. While the days ahead may be somewhat monotonous, the luxurious lifestyle of this seemingly dull aristocratic life is a choice many choose.
In the end, all sorts of choices were recorded on paper, but only two people chose the Blood Talent.
"Gou Dan...you..." Wang Ye didn't expect that Li Gou Dan would choose to do the same as him.
His original idea was for Gou Dan to choose an elemental ranger to help him in the early stages, and then he could establish himself at sea. Because a long time ago, he had heard Li Gou Dan say that one day he would become a captain, own a big ship of his own, and travel to every country!
"What? So you're allowed to have ambitions?" Li Gou Dan sneered.
Wang Ye remained silent for a moment, then finally nodded: "Okay, let's work together!"
Li Gou Dan's lips curled up slightly, and he snorted coldly, "Just don't mess things up. I'm leaving now. Mr. Bright is still waiting for me."
After Li Gou Dan left, Bright quietly followed behind him. In fact, he had been following Wang Ye ever since he returned to the villa. Michelle's level was high enough, but she probably couldn't see him. As a level 30 spirit, the Corpse Whisperer had a natural ability to hide. The Corpse Whisperer's spirit was more hidden than ordinary evil spirits!
However, being hidden doesn't mean everyone can't see you. The person most likely to see you is the one in the Shadow Hut. There are two key points to the mission: first, you must avoid that guy; second, you must get Li Gou Dan to help you track down Tian Zongzi's location as soon as possible.
As the sun set, Bright was certain that the one should be coming out soon.
I must do it as soon as possible...
The thought had barely formed when a terrifying chill swept over him, and Bright immediately knew that the one had appeared.
And it's right outside the city gate!
"stop...
""
---------------------------------
"Mr. Bright?" Li Gou Dan paused, and just as she was about to turn around, Bright said from behind her, "Don't turn around, don't move, just walk normally towards the North Gate, and slow down."
Li Gou Dan nodded upon hearing this, her expression turning serious. It was the first time she had ever heard Mr. Bright speak in such a serious tone.
"There's a terrifying presence at the North Gate. He'll monitor everyone who goes in and out. You absolutely mustn't arouse his suspicion when you go into the forest. If he does, believe me, dying immediately is the best course of action!"
"This is so weird?" Li Gou Dan's hair stood on end.
"It's much more sinister than you think," Bright said seriously. "I advise you not to try it, and don't take any chances. If you're even a second too late, they have a million ways to make sure you don't die."
"Then... how about we just not take this mission?" Li Gou Dan said with a bitter face.
"It's too late. If Sweet Rice Dumpling doesn't make it back alive tonight, all the players in Holy Stone City will suffer the same fate, at least the players in the Elf faction will suffer the same fate."
"Boss, I feel like you've tricked me?" Li Gou Dan's voice was trembling with tears.
Bright was also very troubled at this time. He did not expect that the person would be lying in ambush at the North Gate before sunset. If it weren't for his strong perception of shadows as a spirit, he probably wouldn't have been able to find him at all.
But he couldn't retreat. It was still dusk, and the enemy could reach the outskirts of the city. Once night fell, given their speed, they would probably find the sweet rice dumplings very quickly. Li Gou Dan had to set off early to have any chance.
Therefore, we must get out of the city gate before sunset!
What's worse, he saw that not far behind him, Eliza's group was also heading towards the North Gate. At this distance, if Li Gou Dan couldn't get through the North Gate smoothly within three minutes, he would run into Eliza and her group!
