Short Chapter 19.50: Reversing the Suction Vortex (Part I)
·
For some reason, you and the vampire enter into a question-and-answer session, unaware that these questions are so important to her.
You replied that you don't have a wife, and what does it matter if you have or don't have her?
The vampire looked at the large group of people behind you and said indifferently, "I hate Xiaosan." I don't mind killing one more scumbag who betrayed his wife before he went up in smoke. ”
Why do you bite your tongue? It hurts.
Because she was confused, she thought you were her husband - the vampire, after a simple perfunctory gesture, bent her finger and repeated the second question she had asked earlier.
I don't understand, is there any difference in whether or not she has a safe place?
"Hehe......" The vampire kept his posture still, and sneered like a paralyzed face, "Okay, okay, to be honest, I'm very uncomfortable right now, can I make the conversation flow better? You know I'm a vampire but you still want to save me, you don't plan to cure me and then send me off, right? Where do I live until you use it? I'm a real noble lady, I can't live in this kind of civilian area. I don't have the luxury of having many servants, but at least let me live in a little castle full of roses, neat and shaded, and look at me, look! With such a large window, the beautiful lady whom you have worked so hard to save will turn to ashes to-morrow. ”
...... Castle?
Also roses?
Are you picking up a vampire or a grandma? What's wrong with the people around here, why do they take the title of nobility so seriously?
Here's your answer:
To her castle or mansion, there is no need to count on. However, as a new baron, the construction of his own luxurious mansion has already begun. Again, this mansion is your own, but don't mind a "useful" vampire lodge.
Of course, the reality is...... There were no new mansions at all. She didn't know, anyway, she believed that a new baron was going to build his own mansion, which was very credible.
"You say, 'Stay'?" the vampire turned sideways and stared at you, "Well, calm down, men who like to hug vampires aren't all over the streets, since you're not coveting my body and beauty...... I'm in a bad mood, so let's talk about the ugly things ahead. What the hell are you going to ask me to do?"
Since she mentioned the word "save," she was not planning to commit suicide.
Why bask in the sun?
"Hahaha!" the vampire was stunned, and suddenly laughed, his demeanor was very awkward, as if a beautiful woman had just started to practice smiling today, "I understand, you think I am planning to commit suicide? ”
"I, Lady Edward, a four-hundred-year-old high-ranking vampire, have been silently acting as a patron saint in the Silent Rain Swamp Territory since I gained complete freedom since the death of my master, killing robbers and protecting Ning, and have not actively added any of the lower vampires. Life is not happy at all, but at least it is peaceful. About twenty years ago, I picked up a little boy and fell in love with each other, and I cherish this hard-earned love...... Alas, now that I think about it, I am not "loved" at all, but at least "loved". In short, under my protection, he took part in several battles of the marquis's army, and made a remarkable feats that could not be ignored, and won the title of baron. If a civilian with no foundation is promoted, of course, the territory will not be very good, that is, the "Silent Rain Swamp Territory" where we have been living. I am very content, and I can still feel the beauty of life after death. However, he didn't think so. ”
"He found a mistress, while I'm away!"
"For twenty years, he has known my weaknesses inside out. He ruthlessly announced that he was going to divorce me—I would not sign it! He also framed me for all kinds of crimes, injured me, and expelled me from the territory! The heart that no longer beat even trembled with shock, and the man he had known for twenty years had completely changed in twenty days. I was so mad that I lost consciousness and was in a state of sleepwalking until now. On weekdays, I rarely eat, so my physique is relatively weak, and I can't withstand such a big vicious stimulus. ”
she
It tells the story as if it were someone else.
Raising her chin, she arrogantly urged, it's time for you to answer.
You replied truthfully that the Adventurer's Guild was in trouble, and you were looking for ways to increase your combat power or break through. A dying vampire in a talent market full of food all around probably has a way to coexist peacefully, so you take a gamble and get her back.
"Huh?" The vampire was stunned, looking at the many mercenaries and the "Rainbow Shadow" spellcasters behind you, and couldn't help but ask, "How much trouble are you getting into?" Let me clarify two points first: first, I am not anyone's subordinate, never will be, and anyone who wants to control me will end up with no bones left, so keep it in mind. Second, you didn't sell me some great favor to save my life, at most you were a helper, and even a little nosy. I'm not going to die for you, no vampire will do that, absolutely. ”
She promised, fend off the enemy first, and talk about the rest later.
Fierdine and Adele hid behind the crowd and whispered, "It's not a life-saving grace, that is, she still plans to kill herself, right?" ”
"I'm negotiating with your master, quiet! There was a rustling sound, and the vampire rubbed his two fingernails against each other and glared at the two receptionists.
As if seeing your displeasure, the vampire explained, "Don't worry, I'm strong. For example, I can kill all the people in this room, maybe the time will be a little slow, ten minutes......?
Hathaway tugged at your sleeve and asked with her eyes: It really doesn't matter, is it, the bet is so big?
You touch Hathaway's head, reassuring her.
This kind of thing is not very credible, and it still needs to be seen to be believing. Aside from the true and false statements you've heard, there's not much to be sure of - even when unconscious and in a near-death state, vampires don't bite indiscriminately, the Silent Rain Swamp Collar isn't very far away, there have never been any rumors of vampires, it's either too strong to leave any living witnesses or haven't created a low-level vampire servant, it's always possible to escape from the ropes but it's slow to do so, and it claims to kill everyone in the room without taking revenge for the wound on the thigh. In your opinion, there are only two possible reasons why this vampire lady keeps her body still:
First, she doesn't want to provoke you to go to war.
Second, she doesn't want to scare you, just like Max Usley when she's worried about scaring away cute kittens and puppies.
You answer truthfully, the smell of blood outside is due to the killing of three Haiqiang Sect's Dark Shepherds, and a newly bought Harpy Banshee is eating quite cruelly. Hearing this, the vampire fell into deep thought.
She was a little moved: "Why would you allow it, monster, to shred the remains of the human race here?"
You were speechless for a moment. With the rapid growth of the guild staff, the guild leader will not be able to control every detail, and by the time you return, the Harpy will already be eating the remains. Maybe it's because you don't feel guilty about killing enemies, maybe it's because you've tacitly allowed Harpy to eat minced enemy flesh, or maybe the Harpy has Harpy's badge...... Perhaps this is a warm boiled frog effect that allows acquiescence to escalate. Despite the low percentage, the number of members of the evil faction in the guild does continue to increase.
"If I convert your enemies into low-level vampires, will you think I'm increasing my combat power, or will I feel disgusted?" the vampire stared into your eyes and asked word by word, "Has anyone said that you ...... Weird?"
"No, I don't mean your words and actions. It's no wonder that the living Terrans are the most distinct race in the world, and I don't think it's surprising that there are two people who are exactly the same, and that the more powerful they are, the more they deviate from the norm - and there are people who marry vampires. I don't mean words and deeds, but ......"
"Your ......"
“......”
She eventually gave up and continued.
Following her gaze, you can't help but look back. She's not looking behind you, she's staring somewhere in your body...... Somewhere deeper.
What does picky eating mean, you ask?
"I can only drink the blood of male human nobles, and the rest cannot be accepted. I ate too little, causing the vampire to become less and less traitable, and I continued to ...... for a hundred years Well, nothing. ”
Here's how you answered the most important question she asked:
I don't know.
But there's a hunch that you can help her find it—and the vampire believes it, after all, the Adventurer's Guild is a place where force and intelligence come together.
In fact, it is impossible to find. I only know the name, and there are so many duplicate names, that it is impossible to find the whole kingdom upside down. In short, leave her combat power to resist the blockade of the whole territory first.
Finally, you ask her, where is the coffin and the original burial soil? As soon as you finished speaking, a group of people behind you immediately reached out in a panic to cover your mouth!
How?
He seemed to sigh softly: "The original tomb soil has long disappeared with the death of my master, and you can't control me." The coffin had been burned by her husband. Let your servants go buy the best coffins, the kind that will be extremely comfortable, and I will sleep only on carved mahogany, velvet cotton upholstery. She held out three fingers and emphasized, "Three days." It will take me three days to get used to the new coffin at the earliest, otherwise I won't be able to heal myself and not be able to recover my spell slot. If you don't want to save me in vain, prepare for me the best aristocratic male human blood, as well as an absolutely quiet and well-lit room. ”
Finally, you confirm to her that by "slut" you mean before......
"Of course, that damn slut named "Moon Sha", or "Mu Enshan"! Are you out of your mind? If I can find her one day, I'll turn her into a vampire, and then put her on a cross, let the sun burn off one of her arms and legs every day, and finally leave her upper body tied to the mast heading to the east!"
With a hideous and terrifying countenance, she bared her fangs.
All right
Let her calm down alone, you have evacuated most of the people, except for the "rainbow shadows". It's not that you don't want to retreat, it's that the dark circles don't trust this pale lady. Silver is a soft metal that is not suitable for making weapons, and she is currently the only one who carries a silver dagger with her.
Ahh You ran to the training ground on the second floor, came to the big tie-up "Lanton", and asked the old mage what to do now?
Nodding, the old mage mage muttered to himself: "It's a good acquaintance, and the old man can't leave Lan Dun alone." I just checked, and his ability to absorb spells is "interesting", twisting the magic web into a fierce vortex with his lower abdomen as the center, devouring all spells that come close. This principle of operation is very similar to the "forbidden device" of our "Heraran Arcane Society", so I have a corollary. ”
"I, the back-row instructor, and you, the three of them scattered around him as they cast spells on Landon. Note that it must be a guided spell and then reverse it by striking it clockwise into his "absorbing vortex...... At least soften its frantic rapids, which would ease the load on Langdon. ”
"First, I use level 9, she uses level 6, you use level 3, then I use level 8, she uses level 5, and so on, gradually easing his suction vortex. Note that this method is based on the principle of the priest's level 4 magic "mana infusion", so we can only cast three types: "Protection", "Prophecy", and "Spell". Are you ready?"
No
...... No.
You embarrassed to explain that you had run out of spell slots, and the old mage looked disdainful, muttering that this creature would really be ...... Alas.
Helplessly, Annette also ran out of spell slots because she copied scrolls. Eventually, you push Tong Eun forward.
Tong En stared at Lan Dun who was struggling with pain, not knowing whether he had confidence or no confidence. At the urging of the old mage, a ritual to try to reverse the vortex of suction began hastily.
There are three rounds of healing, and for the first time, which system spell did Tong En cast? You don't have much time to think.
A, Protective system
B, Prophecy
C, spell system
It was only after the incident that the old mage came to the conclusion that the "protection system" would help restore Landon's skills and expertise, the "prophecy system" would help restore Landon's memories before he was killed, and the "spell system" would help Landon maintain his extraordinary physical strength.
