Chapter 181: Randy's Choice
"The more you escape, the more it shows that you care in your heart! You care about that failure, which shows that there is still a trace of desire in your heart! Become strong, and then the desire for revenge! In that case, please accept this drop of blood! With its help, with the help of it, at a small price, you can get infinite power unimaginable to ordinary people! Not to mention a mere magic sword, as long as you pay enough compensation, even the demigods who live in seclusion all over the continent can be trampled under your feet!"
In a drowsy state, the old, wilted cloaked man from memory reappeared in front of Randy Reinhardt, and handed him the vial of dark red plasma again.
Only this time, when Randy Reinhardt reached out to take it, a crystal white palm suddenly stretched out from the side, snatched the glass bottle and smashed it!
"No!"
Randy Reinhardt frantically threw himself to the ground, trying to reach out to save it, but the blood eerily seeped and evaporated, leaving a dark shadow in the shape of a dragon on the ground. Suddenly a fierce wind rose up and knocked him to the ground. A hoarse dragon roar was heard, and a half-virtual black dragon rose from the ground, waving its wings and rushing into the sky, but in the blink of an eye, it swooped down and roared at him with its huge mouth open. And the mysterious old man who gave him blood had long since disappeared without a trace at this time.
Randy tried to dodge, but found that his limbs were completely immobile, and he could only cry out in horror, "Ahhhhh
At this moment, the plain hand that had taken away the blood vial just now stretched out again, and the five-finger fingertip stars swayed, flying out twenty-five silver meteors of different sizes. As soon as these meteors flew out, they intertwined and swirled, turning into a silver net, and the black dragon shadow was solid. The other bare hand followed by a shooting star, and pulled it hard, and the silver net quickly tightened and shrunk, squeezing the black dragon shadow into a cloud of black smoke with a "bang".
Randy gasped for breath in shock, and it took him a while to calm down, and he looked down at the two beautiful jade hands that could be called works of art, and finally saw the appearance of the mysterious rescuer: "It's you! Wendy Campbell!"
Wendy smiled but didn't answer, and slowly approached Randy, reaching out a hand to caress his cheek.
Randy vows: This is definitely the warmest moment of his life. At one point, the warmth of the palm of that hand was even slightly better than that of her mother, who died of illness shortly after giving birth to him. He was very greedy for this warmth and softness that went straight to the depths of his heart, and slowly closed his eyes. However, at this moment, a sharp pain unexpectedly occupied his heart, making him can't help but cry out!
"Ahh
Randy opened his eyes and found himself lying in a quiet room deep in the Priesthood's Academy, where everything he had seen was gone. No, there's one thing, or one person that's still there—Wendy Campbell. The blonde girl, who he knew and was unfamiliar with, stood quietly beside him, a small hand that glowed silver over his chest.
"Yes, you saved me——?
Wendy heard his cry of pain, and took her hand away with a cold snort: "You have indeed received the power of the Immortal Soul!"
Randy looked down at the wound and found that there was only a shallow thin line left on his chest, so he slowly got up with his hands propped up, "Immortal Soul? What is that? Why does it sound familiar?"
Wendy soaked her bloodstained hands in a basin of water and cleaned them: "At the beginning of the universe, the vast space was filled with chaos and nothingness, and there was only the Pillar of Eternity. One day, long later, the Pillar of Eternity split in two, giving birth to the one god Amon at one end and the false god Annu at the other! As long as the time comes, it will be able to sacrifice half of Yuzhou to bring the false god Anu back to the world! And all you get is a drop of blood from one of the countless containers of the Immortal Soul!"
Randy quickly grasped the point: "Countless containers! If each container has such great power, then! What about the Lost Continent?! Humans simply can't be the opponent of those containers!"
Wendy smiled when she heard this, and that innocent and beautiful smile made Randy's heart skip a beat: "Ronin said that although you are arrogant and unreasonable on the surface, you are actually not bad in nature, just a big child with a strong personality and a desire for strength!
"That stinky boy knows a lot!" Randy muttered quietly, not denying it.
Indeed, in the eyes of outsiders, Randy Reinhardt is more often regarded as an outlier among the aristocracy, in addition to the name of "genius Randy". Arrogance is not a weakness worth criticizing, because his strength is enough to support that arrogance. And the fox friends and dog friends around her are a kind of norm in the upper class society of the Morrowind Kingdom to "follow the strong and follow the strong". Randy only sees them as subordinates. Want to be friends with his "genius Randy", those people are not qualified enough!
The only thing Randy Reinhardt cares about, and has always been pursuing, is what Ronin calls "power"! He longs for more and stronger power, and explores the world from a higher perspective. So when he heard Luo Ning's evaluation at first glance, he not only did not reject it, but faintly gave birth to a kind of joy that was understood.
"Hey, there's a question for you, please answer me seriously!" Wendy turned, holding a silver cup with half a glass of water in both hands.
"Please!"
"You were born into an aristocratic family, and you have extraordinary gifts and a close brother. Why are you so attached to power, and what kind of desires are driving you forward?"
"Desire?"
Randy's eyes were slightly closed, his gaze slightly misty, and he fell into a complex state of thoughts intertwined with memories and dreams: "How strong can I become? Legendary warriors, demigods, or even more distant and mysterious beings? I have always longed for and searched for that answer! The day I became an intermediate warrior, I found that the answer at that time did not satisfy me. The day I became a high-level warrior, the answer at that time was still not unsatisfactory to me!And the day Xia Xue also got the terrifying power, I thought I had found the answer, but I was wrong! Actually, I am quite grateful to your brother,"
Randy shook his head self-deprecatingly, the smile on his face was not bitter, but relieved: "He made me understand one thing: the answer I am seeking will not be answered until the day when my life and soul come to an end at the same time and I leave this world completely! Everything before this is just an excuse for me to be lazy or give up! So as long as I am alive, I will always maintain this attachment, and my thirst for power will never stop!"
Wendy didn't expect the aristocratic boy to say such words, and was stunned for a moment before passing the wine glass: "In that case, then drink it! He may not make you stand taller, but he can make you go further!"
