dark witches rise

Chapter 10 The Secret of Barney the Witch Doctor

Gulu gulu...

Deep underground in Barney's Medical Center, there is a medicine pool filled with many rare monsters and rare medicinal materials.

On the surface of the boiling medicinal pool, a small figure lay.

It's Dora!

Dora was lying in the boiling pool, her skin looking horribly pale as if there was no blood.

Her hair, which was tied into chopstick-thick braids during the day, was now completely spread out, undulating like algae in the water.

All the tight clothes that I usually wear are gone.

Without even a trace of body...

It is not a coveted graceful body, but a rotten body with bones and internal organs visible.

Barney, the witch doctor with pale hair and beard, stood beside the medicine pool, with seven sealed ceramic jars placed beside him.

Roya got up and came to the window.

…

Only those whose strength exceeds 500 kilograms can become a quasi-knight.

Following the order from Witch Doctor Barney, Dora in the medicine pool suddenly opened her eyes.

Everything that can relieve mental fatigue is an extremely precious and rare treasure.

"I can't sleep anyway, why don't you go to the study and read?"

Faced with Dora's concern, Witch Doctor Barney waved his hand and said, "It's an old problem, don't worry."

And only when you can lift a stone pier weighing 800 kilograms can you be considered a true knight.

The head has rotted away, and maggots can be seen squirming in the rotting flesh.

One hundred kilograms, two hundred kilograms, three hundred kilograms... until the heaviest one thousand kilograms.

I saw a five-headed snake bleeding and swimming in the boiling medicine pool.

And how to eliminate mental fatigue?

A thick, sickly green mist is released from the bulge on the toad's skin.

Then, Witch Doctor Barney opened another small jar, which contained bloodworm larvae.

As for high-level knights, they can lift stone piers weighing one thousand kilograms.

Whenever those bloodworms opened their mouths and bit off a piece of meat from Dora's body, Dora's ever-changing expression would be slightly distorted by pain.

Barney the Witch Doctor knew what his granddaughter was thinking.

Luo Ya, who was already asleep, suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes were round and bright.

A knight's strength is closely related to his strength.

There is a row of stone piers placed in the training ground.

Witch doctor Barney threw the three-legged toad into the potion with an expressionless expression.

Dora came out of the medicine pool and stood in front of Barney the witch doctor with open arms.

Those bloodshot eyes stared blankly at the ceiling.

Next to the training ground are a row of weapon racks with various weapons, as well as stone piers for strength training.

Witch doctor Barney opened the seven jars one by one and threw all the contents into the medicine pool.

So I can only take a good rest and wait for my spirit to recover naturally.

"Ha ha--"

But what makes people feel weird is that the two rotten eyes on the head are still moving, as if they are still alive.

"Um."

"Didn't Witch Doctor Barney say that visualizing and meditating on ancient scrolls consumes a lot of mental energy?"

Splitting, picking, stabbing, slashing... the basic movements of swordsmanship were continuously performed by Luo Ya, and each sword could make a crisp sound of breaking through the air.

The curtains billowed and rustled in the evening breeze.

"Huh..." Witch Doctor Barney wiped the sweat from his forehead, "It's done."

After Luo Ya put the sword aside, he stood in front of the 700 kilogram stone pier.

The evening breeze blew into the room through the windows that were not closed tightly.

The stone piers are arranged in order from light to heavy.

Roja picked a long sword from the weapons shelf.

Just like exercising can tire your body, meditating on scrolls can tire your mind.

After putting the bloodworm cubs into Dora's body one by one.

And because his mental power had become stronger, he felt that his brain was very clear and he couldn't sleep at all.

"it's time."

"That's it."

There were a total of eighteen bloodworms, and it took Witch Doctor Barney more than two hours to get them all out.

Roja looked at the night scene outside the window.

The moment he grasped the hilt of the sword, Roja felt as if he hadn't held a sword in decades, and a feeling that was both familiar and unfamiliar came to his heart.

Witch doctor Barney took out a small jar the size of a palm and used tweezers to carefully take out the blood worms from Dora's body one by one.

Next, Witch Doctor Barney opened the second ceramic jar.

Roja laughed, held his sword and sprinted to the center of the training ground.

Luo Ya shook his hand, and a sword flower bloomed in mid-air.

After warming up with basic swordsmanship, Roja carried the sword and came to the stone pier for strength training.

Roja felt as if he had slept for three days and three nights, and his energy was as good as ever.

The eyes that stared at the witch doctor Barney were filled with hatred.

Witch doctor Barney squinted at the ceiling, and his deep pupils seemed to see something nostalgic through the ceiling.

He opened the first jar and took out a toad with three legs.

Only when the strength exceeds 200 kilograms can one be considered a swordsman, but not a knight yet.

Because he has been practicing swordsmanship since he was a child, Roja is much stronger than ordinary people.

"How can studying be as enjoyable as playing swordsmanship?"

A red translucent venomous snake with five heads hovers in the jar.

Unexpectedly, Luo Ya only slept for a few hours and his mental fatigue was completely gone.

The three-legged toad croaked.

The moon, obscured by thick clouds, gave off a dim light.

The amount of strength is an important factor in measuring a person's strength.

The difference is that physical fatigue can be eliminated by applying ointments and eating and drinking medicines.

It is impossible to have it in a remote place like Silla Town.

Luo Ya put on loose black training clothes, quietly left the room and came to the training ground.

People who can lift a stone pier of one or two hundred kilograms can only be regarded as ordinary people with a little training.

Half an hour passed.

After Dora put on her clothes, she looked at Witch Doctor Barney quietly with a puzzled expression on her face.

Under the dim moonlight, the shadows of flowers, plants and trees were looming on the ground.

Witch doctor Bani slashed each of the five-headed snakes' necks with a knife and threw them into the medicine pool.

"Are you wondering why I accepted Luo Ya as my student?"

The cool evening breeze blew the hair on his forehead.

"Quack, quack, quack..."

Then Witch Doctor Barney opened the third jar.

Through Dora's rotting body, you can see the beating heart inside, as well as the blood worms eating Dora's body one by one.

The boiling medicine pool gradually returned to calm.

It takes three days for mental recovery, so the next meditation practice can be done after three days.

at night.

"I have an intuition that he will be a great help to you on your journey as a wizard...ahem!"

That's where the guards of the Kateri family are trained.

Suddenly, Roja's eyes fell on a small training ground located in the backyard of Kaitri Castle.

There is a head in the jar.

Witch doctor Barney suddenly covered his mouth and coughed violently, and dark red blood spilled from his fingers.

Remembering that he hadn't wielded a sword for a long time, Roja's heart suddenly felt hot.

But that was only before.

Because he was poisoned by the poisonous snake, he lay in the hospital bed for many days and struggled between life and death for a long time. His body was much thinner than before.

The training clothes that used to be close-fitting and could perfectly outline the contours of muscles are now as loose as pajamas.

Although his body size has become smaller, his strength has not changed at all. It is better to say that due to the awakening of his bloodline, his strength is stronger than before.
