Sailing at Sea: The Breath of the Day at the Start

"Don't go there, something seems unusual there."

But the group glared at Ron and ignored him. The third brother even looked down on Ron's words. He had already arrived in the vicinity.

27, Shadow of Bloodlust

A moment later, everyone heard a terrified scream. The third brother stumbled back and shouted.

“There seems to be blood there, a large pool of blood that doesn’t look like it came from one person.”

Everyone stared at the third brother in astonishment.

"Did you see clearly? Is that really blood?"

The third brother nodded and said.

“Yes, I saw it clearly. It was definitely blood, and a large pool of it. It looked like it would take a lot of blood to reach that amount, but I didn’t see any bodies.”

Those men immediately drew their long swords and headed in that direction.

Ron said.

"If there is any danger, please untie me first. If someone kills me, you will not get this money."

The group exchanged glances, then left the third brother there.

"Keep a close eye on them and don't let them escape."

The others then rushed to that location.

The third brother looked very young and inexperienced; he also looked nervously at Ron and the girl.

"Don't try anything funny, or I won't be polite to you."

Ron smiled faintly.

"Of course, we don't have any tricks up our sleeves, but those guys might be in danger."

Having just seen such a large pool of blood and smelled such a strong stench of blood, the third brother was still in shock. He said nervously.

Do you know what those things are? And why they turned out that way?

Ron shook his head and said.

"I can't determine what it is right now, but I can't imagine how terrifying it is."

Then he looked at the girl.

"Could it be a curse?"

The girl shook her head and said.

“Absolutely not. If it were a curse, I would have sensed their power long ago, but I haven’t felt anything different there until now.”

Just then, several screams suddenly rang out from ahead, followed by an unusually strong smell of blood wafting over.

The third brother's face turned pale instantly.

Ron immediately became serious and said loudly.

"Let me go, I need to go check what's going on."

The third brother seemed hesitant. After all, his companions had repeatedly warned him before they left that he had to stay and keep an eye on Ron. If he let Ron and the others go, he would probably be punished by his brothers again.

Just then, several screams rang out from not far away, and then a figure stumbled and ran towards them. But just as he was about to reach them, he was suddenly split in two by a strange force.

In an instant, his body was thrown around, and a large amount of blood poured onto the ground, leaving a large pool of blood.

Seeing this scene, he felt suffocated. When he realized that the person lying on the ground was his companion, his face turned ashen, and he said in a terrified voice.

"Who is that?"

Ron said loudly.

"Let me go right now, or we'll both be dead."

The third brother hurriedly untied Ron, who then untied the ropes binding the girl. The two of them then rushed in that direction.

The third brother followed behind them, looking ahead with some fear. He desperately didn't want to see what was happening in front of him, but soon the scene filled his eyes.

The ground was littered with corpses, and the bloodstains had almost turned the area into a stream. The strong stench of blood made him want to vomit.

Nothing could compare to the visual impact before his eyes. In that instant, the third brother's legs went weak, and he knelt down on the ground.

"What exactly is going on? What happened to them?"

The third brother muttered to himself, unsure of what to think for a moment.

Ron said loudly.

"Get out of here immediately, don't linger."

He then pulled up the third brother and rushed quickly in another direction. However, at that moment, the smell of blood suddenly condensed, and the blood on the ground quickly gathered, forming a human figure.

Ron suddenly felt a powerful aura behind him. He realized that the other party had finally revealed its true form, but he couldn't turn around now.

He could sense a very strange aura behind him, and if he turned around, he was likely to be severely injured by the other party.

The third brother said in a terrified voice.

"What the hell is that?"

Ron said.

"I once heard a rumor that something called a Blood Demon would form in places with a lot of blood. It is not a living being, but is made of pure energy."

But the Blood Demon loves blood. Wherever there is blood, there is a possibility of its presence. That thing just now might have been it.

The girl said.

"I had indeed heard of such a demon before, but I didn't pay any attention to it at the time. I never thought I would actually run into him now."

Blood is the Blood Demon's food, and also its method of attack.

So after a moment, Ron and the girl smelled an even stronger stench of blood. The smell of blood spread around them, and Ron could soon feel that the scent was almost penetrating his heart. This smell could infect a person's mind.

Ron felt a murderous aura almost rising within him at that moment.

The girl sensed the aura emanating from Ron and spoke loudly.

"Quickly calm down and don't let this force affect you."

Ron tried to calm himself down, but he could feel that energy frantically entering his body, eventually infecting his state of mind. At that moment, Ron felt as if he had become particularly fond of killing.

Moreover, when he smelled the blood, he could even sense that it was emitting a fragrance.

"No, I feel like something's not right with me."

Ron said in a low voice.

His face turned very pale. Although he was still on his way, he had to stop.

The girl's expression changed slightly, and she said.

"Don't stop, let's keep going."

But Ron could no longer take a step. He felt the blood flowing in his chest, and then he realized that something was wrong with him.

The third brother looked at Ron, whose face was now flushed and whose eyes were glowing red. It was clear that he had been infected by that aura. He began to mutter incantations.

Ron couldn't understand what he was saying, but he could feel the killing intent emanating from him. In that brief moment of delay, the blood-red shadow appeared in front of them.

28. Blood Demon Realm

The Blood Demon caught up with them, and Ron sensed the terrifying aura emanating from it. It wasn't just the smell of blood; it also carried the scent of death.

Ron could sense that the Blood Demon had been deliberately placed here, and the real culprit was not the Blood Demon but someone else, because the other person had the strongest smell of blood on them.

However, that energy was not obvious, and the energy that Ron sensed seemed to be very different from that of the Blood Demon.

Ron whispered his guess to the girl, who frowned deeply.

"So what exactly is going on? Who is behind all this?"

Ron said.

"They must want to kill us, but we don't know why they would do that."

The blood demon was gradually approaching them. Ron, who was holding energy in his hand, released it as the blood demon got closer.

The Blood Demon seemed to be infected by the other party's energy, and he retreated rapidly, but the energy he released had now infected Ron's state of mind.

In that instant, Ron felt unusually agitated. So the energy he released also contained a trace of violent power.

The girl quickly sensed the energy emanating from Ron's injury, and she knew not to be affected by his power. Ron knew this, but at this point, he couldn't suppress his breakdown.

Blood Demon was quickly hit by Ron's attack. He retreated rapidly and slammed heavily into the wall, creating a deep crater in the sturdy wall.

Ron appeared in front of the Blood Demon in an instant. The Blood Demon struggled frantically, trying to attack Ron, but Ron's single impact sent the Blood Demon crashing into the ground.

The blood demon tried desperately to crawl out, but Ron stomped it to pieces. In that brief moment, the attack Ron unleashed far exceeded his own strength.

The third brother and the girl were stunned. They never expected Ron to be able to unleash such an attack. The third brother said to the girl somewhat nervously.

Has he always been like this?
