Chapter 94 Let’s start, Ancient Blood
“Win?”
Belmont smiled.
The "people" around him also laughed.
"What do you want to win? Card games?"
Li Nuo: "Everything."
Then he emphasized: "Everything you can think of with your brain, I will win."
The laughter got louder.
But Belmont's face froze, and his red eyes under the brim of his hat were a little dull. He said: "Actually, there are some things you just speculated about that I don't understand. For example, you said that the Mirror Master passed the matter to the elders. ."
"Do you want me to give you an outline now?" Li Nuo put down a Sunny Day card, took a deep breath, and said, "It's okay if we check it out. I'm stuck on time anyway." Belmont
Drama He laughed sadistically: "Then should I take action now?"
Li Nuo shrugged: "Of course, I won't lie to you, but Master Mirror will not let you take action."
Belmont: "What do you mean?"
Li Nuo said He said in a very casual and leisurely tone: "We have to satisfy the devil's taste. If someone destroys interesting things that may happen, do you think what punishment the referee will give to the saboteur?" His words were like a knife, inserted into everyone
. Heart, stop all laughter.
"You can try." Li Nuo put down a card: "It's your turn." "
Haha, damn... you bastard..." Belmont realized that he seemed to be manipulated. If he didn't take action, the other party might be bluffing. , if he takes action, if Mirror Master really takes action, it will be a good outcome for him to exit the script safely.
So now, Li Nuo has the final say on when to take action and when to start the next round of the game.
Li Nuo: "There's no need to say more about the old city where the Mirror Master was behind the scenes and guided the Shadow Elders to ingest the invisible Yadan?"
Belmont: "I didn't expect you to know that too."
Li Nuo didn't answer. The information was what Chabai got in that meeting with the Eternal Fire, and it was also part of what the Mirror Master acknowledged.
When he saw Belmont playing a hero card, he looked at his hand in panic, and while thinking about what card to play, he said: "At the beginning, Mirror Master and I signed a contract. I think you should know it without me saying it." Right."
"Ancient Blood." Belmont could guess it, because the Shadow Elder also asked them to find the Ancient Blood.
Li Nuo said: "However, Master Mirror likes to play word games. In other words, what he wants to see this time is not what trouble the word game will bring to me, but what will happen if he imposes the agreement with me on others." The ending? Everyone has a misunderstanding about Mirror Master, thinking that he is a devil who likes to gamble with contracts. In fact, it is just a way for him to play with others. He destroyed a country and let a child slaughter the elves. What kind of gambling treaty, but a naked conflict of interest."
Belmont: "Just like now?"
Li Nuo found a weather card and put it on the table: "There must have been many players in this world. Mirror Master can read it. If the player wants to kill the Shadow Elder, it can naturally be inferred that the player's mission target is the elder. So if you were a fun person or a player with a console, what would you do?" Belmont: "...
"
Li Nuo: "Let them compete for the same thing, there should be a lot of fun."
Belmont was silent, and then said: "No, there is a problem with balance." "
That would be interesting." Li Nuo said: "And A lunatic and a weakling, what kind of balance can we talk about? Just like the relationship between the devil and the brave, the two are not of equal strength from the beginning." There was no sound at
this moment.
Only balls of rage that wanted to tear people to pieces burned in the air.
Belmont raised his head: "Haha... you mean, we are from the Demon King's Army?"
Li Nuo said calmly: "The initiator of this game at the beginning was the Mirror Master, and the operators are us and the Shadow Chief. After all, you are all pawns."
He said and put on a siege deck to directly attack the weaknesses of the Scoia'tael deck.
Belmont hesitated: "You make me a little unhappy."
"Ha... So it turns out that I have spent a long time thinking about these things, and the ultimate goal is to make you unhappy?" Li Nuo said: "Then let me put it another way, Mirror Master We are Party A, Elder Shadow and I are Party B, and everyone is Party C." "
..." Belmont: "No more trouble, I'll give you one last chance. My deck has already lost. If you choose to give up now If you don’t play and it is judged that I win, then it is still according to the agreement. I will give you a chance to commit suicide, and you will become a member of my team. According to your performance, I will give you the best resources."
Li Nuo stared with dead eyes and said: "I believe you are willing to let me become a team member, but what about resources... I don't believe how much you will give me. Besides, you have stayed in a world with average resources for so long and have not taken in them. The amount of resources is enough to share with others, right?"
Belmont: "..."
Li Nuo: "And your [Shilipo Sword God Card] doesn't have much time left to use, otherwise what you should do now is If you want to attack me during this period, or find a reason to stay away from Kevir immediately, stay away from the center of this incident, stay away from danger, and just keep developing, and you are eager to recruit a plague god like me into the team, it means you have already taken enough. It doesn't matter if you try to arrest me with what you can get. Doesn't this expose the fact that you are not far from leaving the script?"
A voice came from behind Belmont: "Fuck..."
"It seems like I was right..." Li Nuo said with a smile: "Of course, I chose today for personal reasons. After all, if it were a little later... you might get stuck and confront me directly in Keville City before leaving. Let's do it."
Belmont didn't know whether to speak anymore... He felt that as long as he said something, the other party would be able to derive a comprehensive answer based on one point.
Li Nuo was not in a hurry to finish the game.
The main reason he had been chatting with Belmont was... he needed to keep talking to keep his mind off of what he had to do later.
The card game with Belmont is the first level of the game, and the opponent is the player.
The second level will be the Mirror Master.
"Belmont, kill him." Someone said: "Don't believe him."
"Kill him."
"Kill him quickly."
Belmont listened to the voices of his teammates, and his mind began to gradually become confused.
He glanced around and saw an old man wearing a top hat standing behind Li Nuo. His face was vicissitudes of life, but his eyes were fierce and powerful, and his pupils were as dark as an abyss with no end.
The old man pointed his finger on Li Nuo's head.
His complexion was not good at all.
He is absorbing Li Nuo's thinking, but he has gained nothing.
He is the mirror master.
Belmont knew what the other party meant, and he also knew that everything Li Nuo said was not just speculation.
But it's true.
Before the real game begins, before Li Nuo makes a decision.
Mirror Master doesn't allow anyone else to let the story sink into boredom.
"You all shut up." Belmont said. He looked at Li Nuo and thought of bad memories: "I lost in a script, so I know very well that you can't pose a real threat to me now, ha... There is an extremely rare type of player in the 'Endless Corridor'. They have a special ability called [Identity]... If you meet that type of person one day, you will lose miserably." Li Nuo was stunned
.
Cha Bai scratched his chin.
Li Nuo wants to say...there are two here.
"What ability?" he asked.
"I won't tell you." Belmont shrugged his shoulders.
"Boring." Li Nuo lowered his head, and then he said, "How about we talk about the script of Castlevania?"
At this moment.
Li Nuo's ears moved, and he heard a cheerful singing voice in the distance.
Everyone also looked towards the place where the sound came from.
As the singing grew louder and louder.
Li Nuo put the last card on the table.
"I won, Mr. Belmont."
[Completed branch: Gwent Winner]
[Rewards: 5 Keystones of Glory, 2 Ashes of Bone Marrow, and the weather card "Acid Rain"]
The game officially begins.
But everyone was attracted by a burst of magical singing.
Welcome~Come
next time~
Our store has discounts every day~
Welcome~
Come next time~
Bleeding sale~
Welcome~
Come next time~
Hey, super special price~
Welcome~
Come next time~
Today is also a happy day!
...
In the distance...
a blue car was driving quickly.
"What the hell..."
"What is that..."
Everyone was attracted by the increasingly louder magical BGM.
"Damn it!" Only Belmont was not attracted. He no longer held back, and his whole body changed in an instant!
His two fangs grew longer, the redness of his pupils spread to his entire eyes, his face became extremely pale, and several cracks appeared on his neck. The cracks suddenly opened, and the eyeballs inside protruded from his neck and rotated disorderly.
Belmont is not a vampire in the traditional sense of "The Witcher". The eyes on his neck represent that he has been contaminated by blood.
When he waved his arm, a black, ribbon-like whip flashed quickly and hit Li Nuo's cheek!
Li Nuo immediately launched a "serious retreat".
Then I saw him involuntarily crossing his arms to his chest... He calmly took two steps back, and his body shook like an AI program. The two actions were completed in an instant, and he just avoided Bell. A close-range whip that Monte can barely dodge!
Belmont was dumbfounded as he watched the cracks being pulled out of the ground.
He looked again at Li Nuo, who had his arms crossed and a calm expression on his face.
"Are you fucking kidding me?"
"Hahaha!" Li Nuo laughed crazily and said shamelessly: "I can shoot myself 8868 meters away from a fart!" At
the same time, Cha Bai read: "A d'yaebl aép arse! (Get into the devil's ass)"
As soon as he finished speaking, the teleportation spell was activated!
An amber vertical elliptical space door was opened in front of Cha Bai.
Because of Marjie's entrance, Li Nuo's arms crossed and retreat, and Cha Bai's sudden teleportation spell, all the vampires did not have the same target, causing Cha Bai to enter the teleportation gate as quickly as possible.
Someone shouted: "A woman has escaped!"
Before they could finish speaking, a scene that none of them expected happened. The location where Cha Bai teleported... was on the table where the "Ancient Blood Spell" was placed!
"It's really fake."
Cha Bai just took one look and knew that everything on it was fake.
But at that moment, claws and bullets overwhelmed her.
Belmont believes that one can kill one.
The sorceress who can teleport magic circles is the most troublesome.
But he didn't notice that Li Nuo activated the upgrade system when Cha Bai's voice came, upgraded [Very Amateur Stealing] by two levels, and used [Professional Stealing] on Belmont who had attracted his attention.
He took out [The Spell of Ancient Blood] from the six slots of Belmont's backpack.
[Ancient blood activation spell: Dubhenn haern am glndeal, morc'h am fhean aiesin]
[Type: Skill]
[Effect: Teleportation magic that can be used in special scripts]
[Usage requirement: Spiritual power value 30]
[Brief description: Demon hunter Ciri was worried that one day there would be another disaster in the world, so she and a sage figured out how to unlock the ancient blood, and left part of his own blood to be kept by the sorceress Triss of the Holy See. 】
In the script, the safest place is always the player's backpack grid.
Most people would think so.
Except for thieves.
Suddenly, a burst of fire broke out with Chabai as the center, and a heat wave swept around, knocking off tables and chairs, and letting red light burst out from the floating mist. At this moment, there were shouts, groans, and roars, and a sudden flame flashed. The sparks extinguished were eventually followed by screams.
Then, she rushed towards Li Nuo almost unscathed!
These vampires were shocked and stunned, and they showed strange expressions.
They would never have imagined that a player who has not yet reached level 25 would have a physical value of 170!
Because this player's real name is YoRHa No. 2 Type B/E.
Li Nuo had already taken advantage of the chaos and ran backwards. He caught Cha Bai and used Cha Bai's weight to jump back!
As the magical BGM suddenly increased in volume, Marjie pedaled the car wildly before the two fell to the ground, making them fall steadily onto the back rack of the sales truck!
Chabai was lying on the rear frame, with his legs still outside the car, and immediately said again: "A d'yaebl aép arse! (Get into the devil's ass)" A portal appeared in front of the car
.
The sales cart passed through the space corridor and landed on the steps of a tall building.
"It's still the old city!" Marger shouted, looking at the red sky.
"Sorry... the portal consumes too much magic power, and I'm not skilled in using it..." Cha Bai looked very weak, Li Nuo immediately took out the ether and inserted the needle into her arm.
Infused with blue potion.
Cha Bai regained her magic power.
The car bumped on the steps.
Li Nuo said: "If you slow down... I'm going to take off Belmont's underwear." "
Hmph... I just had ladies in the car, and I have to transport them to a safe location."
" Brother Ma...can I scold you?"
"How can a knight's road be unaccompanied by a lady!" Marger's armor made a creaking sound, but his pedaling speed was not slow at all, and the car came quickly. On level ground.
Li Nuo took out a piece of paper with [Ancient Blood Spell] written on it from his arms and handed it to Cha Bai, and then said: "Cha Bai... use the empty ether syringe to draw some of your blood..." "What are you going to do
? "Cha Bai asked as he inserted the needle into his thigh and drew out a lot of blood...
Li Nuo took the needle and said, "Of course it's to blend the [Ancient Blood]." Cha Bai:
"Huh?"
Li Nuo : "Give me the [Ancient Blood]."
When Chabai took out the frozen bottle containing the Ancient Blood, a gust of wind blew... The Mirror Master was already sitting on the edge of the car basket opposite them.
Mirror Master said: "Miss Yuan Warlock, you have two choices, give me the blood and let me mix it, with a 100% success rate, or trust your Mr. Demon Hunter, but you can't see success from my eyes. " Hey
... you have made a bet with me!" Marjie suddenly shouted.
Master Mirror laughed and said, "So I didn't take the [Ancient Blood] directly."
"Bet?" Cha Bai was stunned.
Master Mirror became interested: "By the way, you haven't talked to this lady yet."
...
Master Mirror originally said: Find the spell to unlock the ancient blood, give the ancient blood to me, and I will give it to you. You reconcile. He told the order.
But he did not say whether he would voluntarily hand over the [Ancient Blood] to him, or whether he would directly take the [Ancient Blood].
This is a word game, giving you part of the truth and creating part of the loopholes that can be manipulated.
So...
Marger kept calling the Mirror Master this morning.
The devil couldn't bear the loneliness and appeared in his room.
Marjie came up and knelt down to the Mirror Master first.
Mirror Master: "You don't have to kneel to me."
Marger: "This is called respect. I want to make a bet with you."
In the game "The Witcher", a professor named Shashilak found a way to defeat the Mirror Master The only way: Odim (Mirror Master) is a gambler by nature, and as long as a bet is proposed, he is likely to agree.
The protagonist Geralt did use the gamble to expel the Mirror Master.
Although it only lasted a few hundred years.
But it is indeed possible to defeat Mirror Master through his own gambling.
It's just that Marger didn't want to do it.
Because the price is too high.
Mirror Master: "It's very tempting, but do you still think I had the same state of mind before I was expelled by Geralt?"
Marger: "Humph... So I want to change the things I bet on."
He took out two gold coins: "A small gamble is pleasant, but a big gamble is harmful to the body. What I bet is that Li Nuo can solve the problem of neutralizing the ancient blood on his own. If I lose, I will give you two gold coins, or give you an eyeball." , if I win, you give me the correct spell of Ancient Blood and give me two gold coins." ... "
So
, I signed a bet with Mr. Ma." Mirror Master said.
Cha Bai was confused, his eyes widened under his goggles, and he was a little at a loss.
"...Mr. Ronald (Mirror Master) keeps his promise, so he will definitely watch how I neutralize the ancient blood, right?" Li Nuo said.
"Thank you for the compliment, but I'm very curious, because I don't see you succeeding in your future." Mirror Master frowned: "But I don't see you failing either."
Li Nuo's memory came to a few days ago .
He was learning alchemy from Maggie that day.
After learning the decomposition technology, he asked Maggie: "Your Majesty Queen, does the ancient blood really need to be blended if it is to be injected into the human body for use?" "You don't need to call me Your
Majesty Queen... I feel like I am a pervert." Maggie complained. After a sound, he said: "The blood of the ancients... why do you ask this?"
Li Nuo said: "Curious."
Maggie touched her pointed chin, curled her lips and said: "Of course it needs to be reconciled, but ordinary methods will not work... ..."
Li Nuo: "Elaborate."
"Ancient blood is special blood. It comes from an ancient family. If it is injected into the body of an unsuitable person, there will be an immediate rejection reaction, unless..." Maggie hesitated, Said: "You use something that breaks the rules of magic and blood to neutralize its own special characteristics and make it soft."
Li Nuo: "Can you speak human language?"
"Neutralization is healing, idiot. Maggie glanced at him and said, "In other words, you have to find a way to cure the rejection of the ancient blood."
Back to the present.
Li Nuo inserted the injection containing Chabai's "blood" into the glass bottle containing [Ancient Blood] and mixed the two together.
Mirror Master said: Blood Healing and Source Warlock are the key factors in using Ancient Blood.
Yes...it's still a word play...
this sentence will make people think that how the Origin Warlock uses the blood healing of Bloodborne Curse is the key to using the ancient blood.
But in fact, the correct answer is how to use the source warlock's blood as blood therapy.
The innate energy of the Source Warlock was the key to activating the ancient blood, but something was also needed that could step outside the rules and violently neutralize the rejection in the blood.
Li Nuo took out the blood medicine of "Endless Corridor".
Just like the law of cause and effect item [Fetching Leather Bag], a blood medicine that can help players instantly restore their vitality no matter how injured they are. It is also a law of cause and effect item. Its characteristics are within the rules but are higher than the rules.
In other words, its internal component is HP, which is the purest blood therapy.
However, the above is Li Nuo's own assumption.
No fidelity.
He injected the crimson blood medicine in the injection into the bottle mixed with Chabai blood and ancient blood, and then sucked it out.
Then Li Nuo saw the blood medicine and a new panel popped up:
[Ancient Blood (Blended Version)]
[Quality: Epic]
[Effect: Gives a short-lived ability that can be used to travel through time and space]
[Brief description: Although it is adjusted to a state that can be used by outsiders, it is still highly toxic. It is actually a failure, but those who can resist the poison can do it. Try it]
Li Nuo glared with dead eyes and complained: "Is this considered a failure or a success..."
On the other side, Master Mirror carefully observed the blood medicine in Li Nuo's hand.
A piece of unreadable text reflected on his pupils. Those words were actually garbled data from the "Endless Corridor".
He couldn't read it.
Mirror Master's mentality of watching others have fun is lost.
Because Li Nuo was doing something that he couldn't see through at all, but it was in compliance with the rules.
"You really surprised me." Mirror Master exclaimed in disbelief: "I hope you can successfully bring back what you promised."
He finished.
Mirror Master disappeared into the car.
"What's going on Li Nuo! Why don't you use Mirror Master to blend the ancient blood?" Cha Bai shouted anxiously.
Li Nuo said: "He will put something into the blood that can curse us, such as some kind of 'invisible adan' in Bloodborne Curse. The Shadow Elder and the vampires in the old city are the best examples."
Marger Suddenly shouted: "There are strange black spots approaching on the right!"
They turned their heads and saw winged vampires flying in the air under the red sky.
Among them, Belmont's figure is particularly clear. He is extremely fast and expands in a circle every time he blinks.
Li Nuo immediately shouted: "Cha Bai, teach me the spell to unlock the ancient blood."
Cha Bai nodded lightly, and she asked no more questions.
The two have a "special friend" relationship and can pass on skills that the other can learn.
[Player 5950 is transmitting to you "How to use the Ancient Blood Spell"]
[This skill does not require mastering elemental abilities, has no attribute requirements, and can be learned] [
Do you accept it? ]
"Yes."
[Transferring skills - 10% - 15% -]
"Here it comes! Hold on tight!" Marjie twisted the handlebar and increased the pedaling speed to the highest level!
The sales car ran wildly on the uneven roads in the old city.
The wheels kicked up gravel and dust everywhere!
Among those chasing enemies are players who have become vampires, holding micro rushes from the future in their hands.
Bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang!
The bullet hit the outer shell of the blue iron tricycle, causing a series of cracks and cracks. Marger made a face with a smile and proudly stuck out his tongue: "I'll kill you!" The next moment, the front of the car hit a mane-covered man
. The flesh and blood of Mao's beast was torn apart, allowing the vampire players behind to shoot as they pleased. Marger just pedaled the tricycle and flew away with sand and dust.
[Transmission - 55% - 60% -]
Li Nuo waved his cane and turned it into a whip blade to sweep away the long-haired monster rushing from the side. The old city was filled with various alienated creatures, and they were all under the control of vampires.
Not far behind the car, Belmont was approaching quickly.
Li Nuo: "Hurry up..."
Chabai shook his head, covered his flying white hair and said, "Just let me use [Ancient Blood]."
[Transmission - 75% - 80 %——]
Li Nuo said: "First, extracting one's own blood and injecting it back into one's body is too outrageous. I'm worried about irreparable side effects. Second, this thing is toxic. At least I can't. There is a [Remnant Blood Man] as a trump card, and as a demon hunter, I am immune to poison, so the success rate will be higher if I come!" At this moment,
an alienated werewolf monster rushed out from the side, Marger A sharp turn, hitting the vampire who had been lingering here.
boom!
Marger immediately tried to grab the steering wheel to prevent the vehicle from turning and rolling over.
Cha Bai in the back row was thrown up directly, and Li Nuo was busy catching her.
at the same time.
Belmont turned into a black light and approached from behind.
Marjie shouted: "Miss Chabai, teleportation spell!"
Chabai bit his lip: "I can't use a high-cost spell now...it is very likely that we will be teleported into the wall."
Tsk!
At this moment, Li Nuo brandished the whip blade and collided with Belmont's black whip!
Silver and black, two blurry shadows sparkled the moment they touched!
Sonic booms, collisions, flying sand, all things produced in a state of rapidity are mixed together at this time.
Cha Bai chanted a spell and used fireballs to assist Li Nuo, forcing Belmont to crash into a building.
[Transmission - 100%]
[Learned "How to use the ancient blood spell"]
Li Nuo immediately injected the blended ancient blood into his arm!
[Toxicity 50%]
[Within the tolerance range]
"Very good!" Li Nuo gritted his teeth, and the method of using the skill was transmitted to his mind, and then he shouted loudly: "Dubhenn haern am glndeal, morc'h am fhean aiesin (my gaze will penetrate the darkness, my light will disperse the shadows)!"
At this time, Belmont rushed out of the building and caught the speeding sales cart.
He has entered the most excited state. The face under the felt hat is as ferocious as a demon, the skin has almost turned transparent, the blood vessels wandering between the muscles are shining with blue spots, and the inner eye of the curse is swimming in the chest. Come on, there is even a huge eyeball that has pierced the coat and protruded from the shoulder.
Li Nuo was dumbfounded. Is this elder brother a vampire or a tyrant...
Belmont's eyes shone with a glimmer of light, like a precursor to accumulating energy. At the same time, he murmured: "You are too dangerous... you must be destroyed..."
However, the words were not spoken. Falling, the surrounding air temperature suddenly dropped sharply, and the low temperature seemed to slow down the passage of time... A
blue light spot exploded with Li Nuo as the center. This light like hope began to spread like morning light, illuminating hundreds of surrounding areas in an instant. rice.
Li Nuo activated [Inner Potential] and used [Advanced Black Blood]'s ability to expel vampires, letting the blood mist spurt from his pores to expel Belmont.
[The space-time tunnel is opening]
He grabbed Chabai's arm and Marjie's shoulder.
[You can choose a new parallel world, it may be the future or the past]
Belmont stared at them, his red eyes rendered white by the strong blue light.
He could only watch as Li Nuo, the three of them, and the sales car entered a space crack that shone with white light.
Belmont flashed over. If he could go to other dimensions, he would want to go!
If you can go to the future, it represents unlimited firepower resources!
But the black blood mist on Li Nuo blocked him.
At the last moment of entering the space rift, Li Nuo pointed at him and said: "Then... maybe we can meet again soon." [
Entered the space rift]
[Heading to a new location]
