Chapter 614: The Back Hand (Chapter 2)
At the moment, there are still an hour or two before the agreed time, which is much earlier, but Ye Tian doesn't mind if he arrives in advance.
Metis was quite embarrassed, and a little better than a beggar, and was tossed very badly.
But sometimes chance is like this, if you don't do your best to keep taking the ninety-nine steps, others are willing to give you the opportunity to take the hundredth step, you can't grasp it, and she doesn't know if Metis has a grudge in her heart.
There is no best, but there is ...... What's the use? She hoped that she had better not have it, otherwise, this little life that she had picked up for nothing would be lost; what was the grudge? It was nothing more than that she had "forcibly seized" the [yellowed ancient books] and made her suffer enough.
But to be honest, what did this [Yellowed Ancient Books] mean to her Metis?She dared to say that if it weren't for Ye Tian, with her strength, with the unworthy power of the [Holy Land Cathedral] now, she wanted to activate these twenty-three regions?
It's tantamount to a pipe dream.
That "Lord Pope" can't last more than a year and a half, and if Metis can't get his hands on the holy object they discussed this time, he'll be doomed.
To put it bluntly, Ye Tian doesn't ask her to be grateful to herself, but at least don't be stupid enough to look for death, right!?
A special purification ability, plus the [Holy Land Cathedral] holy weapon that cannot be moved temporarily, put together, the value of its investment is not low, maybe in the future...... And where she can be used.
This is one of the reasons why Ye Tian doesn't want to kill her for now, and the other thing is that she is not sure if the opening of the [Tower] is foolproof, so as to keep Metis, who knows the inside story farther than her, in case of emergency.
The height of the Baizhang bridge, Ye Tian can easily climb it, but Metis can't, take a look, in order to save some effort, she directly grabbed Metis, a moment of effort, then a few vertical leaps, landed on the other side of the Baizhang guardrail.
The moment he landed, Ye Tian walked straight forward, and Metis took a deep breath when he saw this, and then followed——!!
Subconsciously saved up the ghost drawing talisman of the peach tree sheet in his pocket.
At first, she didn't understand how "Ye" could give her such a thing, and let her cross several areas alone, but as time passed, thinking of "Ye's" unscrupulousness, she chose to trust, she had already been stupid once, and almost put her own life into it; this time, she didn't fully trust, but she decided to gamble once, bet - her own value!
Tearing open the crack in her hand, blood spilled and fell on the thin piece of wood, and then the moment the chip released a faint wave that enveloped her, she spat out two mouthfuls of saliva mixed with blood, took a breath, and stepped into the dry and thorny isolation zone.
And it turned out – she was right.
When she walked out of the dry thorns and arrived at another area, she couldn't believe it, and said to herself: Is this the magic spell of the East? It can actually cover her breath...... You know, even if she had the means, it would only last ten minutes, but she noticed the thin piece of wood...... There is also a strong energy blockade.
And yet the most amazing thing is yet to come.
How scary is Castlevania at night?
Even the "Pope" who can have fifth-order abilities in a short period of time is very terrifying in retrospect, those terrifying things that only exist in the "activated" area can be put aside for the time being, after she steps into the unarrived area, she can't touch it, but the hundreds of millions of vampire bats that can "bury" the four areas are absolutely capable of tearing apart in an instant-when her abilities were not imprisoned in her heyday! Even the powerhouses of the fifth order may not be able to last too long.
Seeing that scene that covered the sky and the sun, she was so frightened that she almost hid in the church, but she was not reconciled, if she entered, unless she waited until the arrival of the seven days, the area would not be activated, and the church would be empty, not to mention people, not even the key! She was equivalent to giving up the right to enter the tower, how could she be willing!? She hid at the door of the church with hope.
I didn't expect ...... The fluctuations unleashed by this "thin piece of wood" still made hundreds of millions of vampire bats ignore her, and in an instant, the image of that "leaf" in her mind became tall and mysterious......
It was because of this that she was able to reach the castle district smoothly.
In the process, when she passed by the center of a certain area, she didn't even notice the guardian ancient beast, and she took the opportunity to seize a "gold leaf key", as for the activation area, she couldn't do it, she had to force the ancient beast back, and the formation switch in the activation area was at the feet of the guardian ancient beast. This thing can be called an "amazing treasure", but "Ye" was casually thrown to her.
That indifferent look was obviously nothing to her...... Thinking of this, she couldn't help but have complicated feelings.
Soon she realized something else: she had been told from them from beginning to end that the power of "Ye" was in the middle of the fourth order, but how could this be? she must be hidden, but what was her true power?
Is it the pinnacle of the fourth order? or, in the true sense of the word, the fifth order!? Thinking of this, her breathing couldn't help but become short, once this thought appeared in her mind, it was like grass and trees taking root in her heart, taking root and sprouting, and she could never be pulled out again!
There is even more fear in my heart, a fear with no end in sight......
Like a tide, it instantly drowned out the negative emotions such as unwillingness, resentment, and viciousness that arose after she was deprived of the [Yellowed Ancient Books] in her heart, and then recalled the indifferent dead man's gaze like an ice cellar before she left, and she planned to calculate her in her heart, and then find the courage to find an opportunity to confront it, just ...... Little by little, it is worn out!
In the same way, she soon realized that perhaps "Ye" was deliberate, and at night, none of the areas she was walking in were activated, otherwise she would probably be uncomfortable, which was also extremely complicated for her.
In an instant, they were under the tower.
Ye Tian could sense that along the way, this "Lord Metis" was often distracted, but as long as she was not stupid enough to touch a terrifying existence, she didn't care, she was so stimulated that she wandered...... Purely normal?
The twenty-seven areas on the stele are completely illuminated.
Everything is ready, only the east wind is owed.
Then, when opening the [Tower], as Ye Qian expected, the [Yellowed Ancient Books] and the Tower had a great traction, and it was indeed the key item to open the Tower, which was smooth at first, but when the process of communication between the Yellowed Ancient Books and the Tower was not satisfactory, and the difficulty was very high - the expected horror incident occurred!
Not only the cries of the alien bats in the eaves of the various layers of the [Tower], but also the castle area, there was also a disturbance...... Those sleeping horrors are showing signs of awakening! Even Metis is aware of it.
Thinking back to the "everything" she vaguely saw along the way, she felt a chill from the bottom of her heart, like a man's back.
These ghosts, even if they don't revive right away, the terrifying arrogance they erupt with is already terrifying, and ...... They all had a hunch in their hearts, I am afraid that it will not be long before these terrible "dead things" will be killed!
But at this time, the communication between the [Yellowed Ancient Books] and the [Tower] was not yet halfway, and the last point representing the tower on the stele had just shone a little light, and there was still a long distance from the side of it!
I'm afraid it will take another hour or two to complete, but those terrifying existences don't need such a long time at all, once the tower activation process starts, they can be fully active, but now they are just silent "too long", and they have not completely broken free from the last layer of "rules", once the power is fully awakened, the last layer of rules will be scratched by them!
After more than ten minutes, Ye Tian was still anxious at first, but soon calmed down, remained silent, staring at the stone tablet, but her divine sense was aware of every moment of Metis's actions, her expression, and constantly rubbing the scars and flesh of her palms, and the slight "tangled" that flickered in her eyes from time to time between the stinging pains, she realized that this woman should have a trick.
Yes, she was not in a hurry.
In about twenty minutes, when the first sharp and cruel "roar" sounded in the castle area, a terrifying aura swept over like a tide...... Metis was already frowning impatiently, she glanced at the side of the clouds and the breeze was gently leaning, and the calm and unfluctuating expression made her breath short.
She finally closed her eyes, and when she opened them, she took a knife from the "Ring" and tore open the pants on her thigh, directly ripping off a piece of flesh that was different from the other skin colors, and a small "scepter" was hidden inside.
At first, she was lucky enough to think that she didn't need this key/scepter from the [Yellowed Ancient Books] to open the tower, and she could keep a hand, but at this time, she was almost forced to the extreme, and she had to be willing to hand over this insight.
Metis gritted his teeth and handed it over to Ye Tian, without bargaining with this "Ye" to negotiate a deal, she was already shocked by her calmness, she realized a point, even if those monsters ran out, "Ye" didn't have to worry, with her strength, not to mention counter-killing, it was feasible to leave the castle area and hide in the church area, but she couldn't.
She must climb to the top of the Tower and enter the Island of the Gods——!!
And the deal? no...... That will only become a poison that will hasten her death! The other party has already gotten what she wants, and if she were replaced by her, she would never leave "Ye" a way to live, after all, she knew that the other party was terrible.
And the other party—as if waiting for her to compromise herself—took a deep breath.
Sure enough, she was right that she didn't erase Metis and brought her over - the opening of the [Tower] actually needed another thing, which was in her hand, and the moment she took it, Ye Tian's face was expressionless, but his eyes were extremely cold.
To be honest, if she hadn't been cautious, if a sword had killed her at that time and taken away her ring, I'm afraid she would be the one who would be difficult to ride a tiger now. But in the end, she had a little murderous intent in her heart, yes, she glanced at Metis coldly and warned her, "You should be glad that you handed it over a minute early, otherwise, you will ...... Tomorrow's sun will never be seen again. ”
A minute!?Metis froze.
And the consequences were just as Ye Tian said, in a minute, in a corner of the castle area, a terrifying roar was shocking, and then, a black shadow killed directly, the piercing sound was dizzying, and its surging power fluctuations were even more desperate - fortunately, when it was killed, the key had already merged into the [Yellowing Ancient Scripture], and it had changed.
And the communication with [Tower] is unprecedentedly compatible——!!
Eventually, when the ghost thing fell into the range of the [Tower], the stele fluctuated, and the moment the "leaf" stepped in, Metis also jumped in with a heart that was about to explode, and when she landed in a dark house with only a faint light coming from behind her, the ghost behind her roared, reflecting on the ancient stone slab on which she stepped on......!
She turned around in horror and looked from the inside out, the [Tower] stele was already transparent, she guessed.
And she saw it clearly.
The demonic thing caught her eye, maggots scurrying around on her rotten face, and a bat-like wing flapping behind her, two fangs sticking out, and blood-red eyes, just like that, on the [Tower] stone tablet.
Even if she couldn't feel the pressure anymore, she knew that if she was a minute late, as Ye said, Ye might not care, but she—would definitely die at the hands of this ancient vampire!
Compared to her panic, "Ye" had already taken a calm step, and she could only take a quick deep breath, forcibly calm down, and follow "Ye's" steps towards the tower.
Unlike Metis, who has blackened eyes and carries the [Yellowed Ancient Books] that have also been partially activated, there is not much difference between the outside world in front of him, and the light is generally okay, of course, the divine sense is not limited, but it doesn't matter.
Half a day later, they stepped into the top of the tower.
Sure enough, there was a dry fifth-order old woman waiting, when she saw someone coming, she was not surprised, her eyes were blank, but a big battle was unavoidable, this time, without the two-tailed white fox to shoot, Ye Tianle finally found the existence of the "fifth order" to practice.
This battle is a day and a night, of course, this is Ye Tian after groping for the strength of the battle, intentionally, to familiarize himself, and soon found that this is actually a "puppet";
If it weren't for the lack of time, she would probably have planned to beat her for another seven days and seven nights.
After having a good time, she killed the "puppet" and got the key to open the "Island of the Gods" from the puppet.
As soon as he entered the Island of the Gods, Ye Tian noticed the abnormal movement of the dantian in his body, and at the same time, the [yellowed ancient book] in his hand was revealed, and it was at this time that Metis finally told the origin of this ancient book-the Book of Priests.
Only the "Purify" ability can control her, and her trip to the Island of the Gods, in addition to finding a solution to the survival of the "Pope", is to come in to find the inheritance of the "Book of Priests";
In the end, Ye Tian returned the [Book of Priests] to Metis, but when it was overjoyed, Ye Tian deprived the "key/scepter" in the [Book of Priests] and told her to return it to her...... Yes, but she has to make a deal with her...... After saying that, a chilling smile appeared on her face again.
……
Just when Ye Tian's mind was still flashing the situation of the Island of the Gods, as soon as he stepped into the border of Xinjiang in Kyushu, he suddenly became serious, his eyes flickered, and a danger slammed into his heart......
