The battle with the pirates ended just now because of Chast's sudden intervention. Except for the fifteen pirates who died of arrow shooting at the beginning, everyone else was very honored to be turned into an ice sculpture by Chast, and none of them survived.

The two archers who obeyed Talos' orders shot and killed five pirates in total, and the soul fire absorbed five souls at the moment when the pirate died.

What's amazing is that the souls of other pirates who died from the arrow shooting of the Black Sea Knight and later died pirates were not absorbed by the soul fire.

This is the biggest breakthrough point for Talos to draw a preliminary conclusion, no doubt.

"In this battle, there are two causes of death for pirates, including Chast's cold winter ice ring and the arrow shooting of the Black Sea Knight." Talos followed Emma to greet Chast's arrival and quickly analyzed, "But only five of them died of arrow shooting were absorbed by me!"

The soul fire that absorbed five souls once again radiated a faint halo outside the bright red flame light, and penetrated into the void. Talos's entire body was indescribable, like the comfort and satisfaction of soaking his body in the hot spring in the cold winter.

If the pirates on the Liberty continue to be subdivided, they can be divided into three comparison groups:

The first group, the pirate whose soul is absorbed by Talos, with five people;

The second group, the pirates who died from arrow shooting of other Black Sea Knights, dozens of people;

The third group, the pirates who were turned into ice sculptures by Chast, were about eighty.

Comparing the first and second groups and digging deeper into the differences between the two, you will soon find that in fact they only have one difference.

The first group of Black Sea Knights responsible for shooting followed Talos' orders, and the second group of Black Sea Knights responsible for shooting followed Emma's orders.

As a result, the pirate souls that followed Talos' orders to shoot the Black Sea Knight were successfully absorbed by the soul fire, while none of them followed Emma's orders.

After comparing with the third group, Talos finally came to a preliminary conclusion: when the cause of the target's death has a direct causal relationship with him, the target's soul will be absorbed by the soul fire.

The conclusion was used to verify the previous case. Ax died in a real-life repair cabin that protected the safety of the sick body (Talos). The first seaman crocodile was killed because the Black Sea Knight did not want it to threaten the safety of Talos. Then the five seaman crocodile died from Talos' direct order, and the man was executed as the Black Sea Knight.

All the twelve souls absorbed since the soul fire is ignited can be explained by this conclusion!

As for other influencing factors, such as the maximum range (distance) of soul fire that can absorb the soul, whether the target strength affects the absorption of soul fire, etc., before Talos sets up more control groups for experiments, the experiment body is consumed and turned into an ice sculpture.

"If the preliminary conclusion is true, it means that the cause of Naga's death just now has no direct causal relationship with me, and the cause of the shipwreck has nothing to do with me. In other words, the other party's target is not me."

"If so, who would his target be?" Talos's eyes swept over the survivor and eventually fell on the girl from the Misrell's house. "Is there a possibility that the other party's target is this girl with the blood of the prophet?"

The chief palace mage Flory had many political enemies in the Naga Kingdom. Moreover, the kingdom is now at a critical period when the eldest princess and the third princess compete for the throne. It is not uncommon for the other princess to be a strong supporter of the other princess to bring disaster to the tribe members.

"So, Taal, are you okay?" A serious voice fell to his ears, pulling Talos back from detective mode back to reality, it was Chast.

Talos shrugged: "It's not bad, I think I didn't have the chance to command four Black Sea Knights before."

As the backbone armed force of the Black Sea, the Black Sea Knights were directly led by the Black Sea lord Sandra, and there were no more than ten people in the entire Black Sea who had inferior command power.

Even as the youngest son of the Black Sea Lord, Talos did not have the authority to command the Black Sea Knights.

However, after he lost his spell casting ability, he accidentally obtained personal protection from four Black Sea Knights.

Chast frowned, not looking satisfied with Talos's answer, and said in an elder-specific tone:

"The breaking of meditation space is a devastating blow and disaster for other mages, you are different. The ancient Cang Whale Bloodline of the Netherworld is one of the most outstanding bloodlines of the Sea Clan. It will make you truly glorious and powerful after experiencing hardships. What's important is that you are still young and have a greater room for improvement than us."

Talos was a little flattered and accepted all Chast's affirmation of him.

He never knew that Chast, the high-level mage, was so confident that he was activate the bloodline of the ancient Cang Whale in the Ming Dynasty, as if his strength could reach the seventh level of the Black Iron the next day after returning to the Black Sea, and then directly activate the bloodline.

To be honest, Talos believes that he can become a great blood knight in the future, not that he is really confident, but that he is indescribable.

According to the survey data released by Eternal Tide a year ago, among the 100 pros of Sainz, there are 50 Bloodline Knights, 30 clergymen, and 20 spellcasters.

It seems that becoming a bloodline is the easiest thing, but the fact is that activating bloodlines has never been related to "easiness".

No one can guarantee that Talos is equally outstanding on the road to Blood Knights while possessing the talent of extraordinary mages.

Talos's confident and free mentality is all based on the identity of the mysterious soul fire and the youngest son of the Black Sea Lord. If he had not had enough retreat and confidence, his mentality would have collapsed long ago if he had been the same as others. After all, the gap between formal professionals and ordinary people is very large.

Moreover, Talos was too far behind others on the road of Bloodline Knight. When he devoted his entire ten years to the mage from the age of seven to seventeen, they chose to exercise martial arts, hone their will, and prepare for the activation of bloodlines.

——He needs to work exponentially to catch up with the Bloodline Knight of the same period!

At this moment, Talos truly established his own beliefs and determination based on Chast's straightforward confidence and faced reality.

Unfortunately, Emma did not give Talos more time to communicate with Chast: "Where is the family mage, why didn't he come with you?"

Chast looked away from Talos, nodded to Quintu, and then fell on Emma, ​​the first heir to the Black Sea Lord, to answer her question:

"I immediately rushed over according to the coordinates when I received a message from the Lord, because I was worried that you would be in danger and keep moving forward at full speed. The facts proved that my worries were not unreasonable. These damn pirates! The family mage was behind me for a while, and it would take about twenty minutes. Don't worry, I will definitely send Taal home safely."
