Chapter 258 Bloodline Ascension
Feige's play in front of Zariel wasn't flawless, and he knew it, but it would be nice to be able to fool around for a while. Using the "Loyal Fork in the Road Demon" and "Ambitious Plan Asmodeirs" to confuse Zariel's thinking, her eyes have been stuck on the arrogant top-level strategy, so there is a space for the little demon to sneak underneath. Zariel didn't sign any contract with Feige, and even forgot to ask what his name was, which already overjoyed Feige.
The undead were still wandering around, but there was much less of the sound of fighting around, and it was estimated that none of the adventurers who came in from the previous wave made it out alive, which greatly slowed down the speed at which the back waves crashed to death on the same beach. Without the amateur activities of fighting the living, the movements of the undead became sluggish, and most of the skeletons stood quietly in the streets, like guards, like sculptures. They scan their surroundings with cold eyes, and when there is any disturbance, they immediately gather to check.
Skeletons, zombies, and ghouls crawling on all fours on the ground and walls, although they have taken over the streets and squares, their detection abilities are limited, and they are nothing more than ordinary sight and hearing, which can be deceived with stealth and silence spells. The more troublesome are ghosts, shadow monsters, and haunting ghosts, which rely on direct sensing of living things. Even with stealth and silence, living creatures are like bright torches to their eyes. Only walls, floors, and flowing water can reduce their sensitivity to light, but the safest thing is to spot them early and distance themselves.
It's hard to do that in the city, and the adventurer teams are just losing to the ghost's detection abilities. Feige also threw a spell of the undead into the urn, covering himself with greater light, so that he could reach the den of maggots. It was an enclosed building, with an all-bronze vaulted hall shrouded in a dark and deep pit in the center, and the smell of decay and decay lingered in the air.
This is the place where the devils will be punished for their final punishment, and it is also a recycling station dedicated to the disposal of corpses. The six bronze statues of the Deep Hell Purgatory posed in a monstrous and menacing manner, distributed in symmetrical positions around the round pit. They carry barbed whips, serrated swords, tridents, maces, earth-splitting hammers, and axes, and the bloody heads of various creatures on their chests and waists. From the entrance to the entrance to the maggot's den, there was a black mark like asphalt. But it's not asphalt, it's a unique coating that has been formed over time by the blood that has dripped or been spilled on the ground over the years.
It's not a good place even for the devil. As soon as you walk in, fear will follow you and begin to eat away at the pride, superiority, and courage that belong to the devil. Hell gives the devil all sorts of advantages, great strength, tough bodies, ferocious spells, and strange racial abilities - but in the Maggot's Den, Hell takes it all back. The closer he got to the central pit, the more Fitch felt like a mortal rather than a demon.
"Fortunately, I found my mortal body before, and now I don't feel uncomfortable. Feige stood on the edge of the pit for a while, and he used the Eagle Eye Meditation technique to see the bottom of the pit. It was so disgusting that it was filled with flesh and blood, and Feige didn't want to relay it or keep it in his memory. He only knew that all the devils who fell would sooner or later become part of the matter in the pit, releasing their soul power in the gradual dissolution, and then the spirit coins would appear from the empty hands of the six Hellpurgatory statues around them.
Feige didn't want to turn into a spirit coin. He cautiously circled the edge of the pit, and found no "hidden soul gems" in Zareel, but he found that the corrupting aura here was actually a good thing to deal with the undead.
People often confuse the qualities of evil creatures such as demons and the undead, and they all call them "corruption." But in reality, the devil is corrupt, and the essence of the undead is "death". The withering and decay performed by the undead is actually a means used to achieve "death", which is actually the same as the skeleton soldier picking up a knife to kill people. The Devil's Corruption is meant to transform all other traits in the direction of the Devil, even the death of the undead.
The Bone Demon, which has the common physical characteristics of both insects and skeletons, is actually the effect of corrupting the power of the undead and acting on the devil. The Bone Demon is not an undead, it is still alive, with a heartbeat, blood, and desires, but it is somewhat undead in spirit and the way it thinks about things.
The Maggot's Den is one of the places where the corrupting power of Hell is most concentrated, and it can also have an effect on the undead, so the undead will subconsciously avoid it, and the heavy bronze walls will also block the vision of the ghosts. So Feige sat under the bronze statue of the Deep-Hell Purgatory, as close as possible to the pit of Corruption, and took the time to rest here.
The first, of course, is to look at the "Make Incognito to a Specific Creature" spell. Zariel taught the spell to Fitch in the Hell Rune, but with the experience he had accumulated over the years, combined with Zariel's background, Fitch quickly saw through the essence of the spell: it was a spell based on the Celestial Rune, and Hell was just a modified version.
"She was observing the bloody battle when she was still a Blazing Sky Divine Servant, and she must have used the Celestial Word at the time. ”
Feige had a similar experience to Zariel, having converted the Celestial Divine Runes into Hell Runes when he created the Undead Urn Spell, and he was now reversing the process. He then compares the two spells and discovers that they essentially use mana to activate their own bloodline power and adjust it to be close to the target creature type first, using this as a template to influence invisibility.
The Devil's ability to detect – represented by the Lust Demon – is always able to see through illusions, including stealth and false imagery, and this ability is imprinted in the bloodline of the Desire. The stealth to the devil is actually specifically for real vision. After using this spell on the Lust, the Lust will still be able to see with both eyes, but her true vision will not work.
Can be applied to a single detection ability of a certain group of organisms at a time. The most threatening thing about the devil and the demon is the real vision, so it is solved by the spell together, and then mixed with ordinary invisibility techniques, the stealth of the devil is completed. Feige doesn't need to be invisible to the devil, what is urgent is actually to be invisible to the necromancy, and the preferred target is, of course, the ghost.
"Skeletons and zombies can't see through ordinary stealth in the first place, and they can only try to surround me with their scent and the command of ghosts. The ghost can see the light that belongs to the living thing, and this is the most dangerous thing. Well...... The spell needs to be tweaked a bit. ”
The spell itself leaves room for changes to its ability to scout against various creatures, so this change was made quickly. "The next step is to activate the power of the bloodline, and this invisibility can only work if the strength of the bloodline is not much different from the target. If you want to deceive the Hellpurgatory, you do need the level of the Blazing Divine Servant, but my target is a ghost, so it shouldn't be that difficult, right?"
Feige's lust demon fell from the saints, is this considered "noble blood"? Zariel said very vaguely, she has been belittling the "bloodline" of the current lord Bayer, but Bayer is still a deep hell purgatory, how should its bloodline be calculated?
There is indeed a difference between the desires and demons formed by the fall of different angels, but if they are not activated by the methods in the "Painted Leather Book", they cannot be revealed. Feige believes that Zariel knew about the Painted Leather Book, after all, she was transformed into a demon by Asmodeirs and then arranged to become a lord, which is likely to be an important part of the demon king's experiment with the demon back then. As long as the rituals in the "Painted Leather Book" are used, the more powerful the original angel is, the more lust forms can be formed at the beginning, which is undoubtedly a great advantage.
Maybe there is something similar in the Deep Hell Purgatory, but there is definitely no Deep Hell Purgatory who has progressed step by step from the Bad Demon, so Bayer will have the saying that "the blood is inferior". This is why Bayer did not kill Zariel, but spared her life and extracted "noble blood" from her.
"Greed!" Feige pinched his nose. He felt that Bayer's way was too troublesome, and as long as Zariel lived, she would have a comeback one day, especially since she was also the lord of the first layer of hell who was personally shaped and promoted by the Demon King. "Maybe Bayer's greed comes from its deep inferiority complex, which is why it changed its bloody strategy to all-out defense for the sake of the false name of winning and undefeated? Hmm...... Whatever, I care about what the bloody war does. ”
Feige learns to be "invisible to the undead (devils/demons and other creatures)" and naturally wants to go out and try it. He dodged the skeletons on the ground, walked on the rooftop, and turned on his invisibility spell to appear in front of the ghost. The spell was effective, but the power of the "bloodline" that Feiqi could inspire was a little insufficient, and the ghosts within thirty meters would still see him. Fortunately, the opponent only had a reconnaissance distance of thirty meters, and with the obstruction of the corners of the wall, it was not difficult for Feige to escape.
"No, it doesn't work as well as it could have done with ghosts, so wouldn't it be useless to face stronger enemies?" Feige dropped an undead into the urn, collected a wave of evil aura, got rid of the undead, and retreated to the maggot's den. "It may be really necessary to raise the bloodline. ”
He had to wonder if Zariel had set a trap in it, but he thought about it and felt that it was not possible. Imagine that after being imprisoned, drawing blood, and tortured for so long, finally came to a helper that could be used, did you still want to kill him? Fei Qi used the knowledge of the contract demon to look at it for a long time, but he didn't find any evidence from the blood vial that there might be something like a soul contract. However, to be on the safe side, he decided to sneak back to the "shelter" again, which was not far away anyway.
This time, the corpse of the contract demon at the door had been cleaned up, and the traces of red gold and blood were nowhere to be seen. Feige waited for a while, but no one came in or out, so he used "stealth to the devil" to open the door again and enter.
There was a lot of fireworks in the room, which was the same as the hellish aura emitted by the Hell Purgatory, so this time it was a Hell Purgatory who replaced the Contract Demon? Fortunately, it was gone, which can be seen from the change in the medicine bottle. Fei Qi didn't dare to waste any more time, and hurried to look at the entire pharmaceutical process in the alchemy laboratory again.
The "Pure Essence Incense" counteracts the effects of hell, and Bayer then uses a number of techniques to process it to form an injection against Zariel. Extrapolating from the nature of the materials used in the alchemy process, coupled with the study of the injection with detection spells, Feige probably understood Bayer's thinking.
This is an extract that targets Zariel's Blazing Celestial Servant bloodline. The combination of pure good essence and some substances that are harmful to the devil produces an effect similar to downgrading and reversing corruption, thus restoring Zariel's angelic bloodline to a certain extent.
Bayer is a deep hell purgatory, and Zariel is a giant empowered one-man demon. It's ridiculous for the Hellpurgatory to get bloodline from the Lust Demon, but it's not the same for the Blazing Celestial Servant. Based on this judgment, Feige believed that the final extract, that is, the red-gold blood, was safe, and that he happened to have the lustful form of a "female angel" to carry the bloodline of the Blazing Divine Servant.
"That's it!" Feige didn't touch anything in the alchemy studio, and secretly left again, hiding in the hall of the maggot's den. He first used the Hell's Favor to speed up the recovery of the Blackwing Lust Demon form, ensuring one more life, and then transformed into a female angel with two white wings.
"Hmm...... It seems that the figure is better than that of Shani...... Wait! what am I thinking!" Feige patted his cheek vigorously, quickly concentrating. "Enhanced, enhanced! Use the bloodline to strengthen, wouldn't it be better if you used the enhancement ritual?"
By inputting mana, the Pit Excalibur can provide divine thunder, plus a magic matrix and a simple auxiliary circle, Feiqi can preside over the enhancement ceremony. He (she) thought about it carefully, Zariel's red and gold blood was the bloodline of the Blazing Heavenly Divine Servant, and at most it was mixed with some pure goodness and evil substances that were harmful to the devil, although it could not be said to be absolutely sacred, but at least it was not evil, and there was no conflict with the enhancement ritual of the goddess. And the spatial effects here are all blocked, so I'm not afraid of attracting punishment from the heavenly realm. If Hell is dissatisfied, the Hell's favor in the evil aura can also be settled.
Once he figured it out, Fitch got to work. When the mana turns to produce thunder, and the thunder strikes him or her again, the familiar pain of the augmentation ritual manifests itself again. Feige had transferred the griffin's bloodline abilities to himself, but that body was later abandoned, so it was still a "first time".
The entire ritual ran smoothly, but Zariel's red-gold blood didn't move. The transformed thunderbolt struck on it, and the droplets seemed to resist spells, still remaining in their original form. Fei Qi relied on the understanding of the multiple enhancement rituals, and felt that there was a need for a medium to release the red gold blood in order to allow the mana of the ritual to penetrate through.
"Raw soup turns into raw food!" Feige poured red gold blood into Zariel's blood vial. As he expected, as soon as the rounded red gold blood droplets entered, they immediately turned into blood streaks and spread out, penetrating evenly and mixing together. Immediately afterward, the Enhancement Ritual absorbed all of the contents of the blood vial, and then turned into a golden lightning bolt that struck Feiqi's body.
It was hundreds of thunderbolts that stormed away Feige's original body and reshaped it at the same time. The aura of hell's corruption moved closer to him, and Feige immediately cast an evil aura to fight it. The Corrupt breath drained some of the Infernal goodwill so that Feige's Enhancement Ritual wouldn't be disturbed.
The primitive physical qualities of the Lust Demon far surpassed that of humans, so it didn't take much time for the ritual to be completed. Feige (female) has grown taller, her eyes are like topaz, her skin has turned pale gold, and she is made of metal. What was originally a pair of white wings is now a three-pair pair. In appearance, he or she is a blazing god, but he or she does not have the slightest divine aura. The terrifying aura of evil pressed against Feiqi like a mountain, heavy, majestic, and indestructible.
"Only the form?" Fei Qi tried, his strength, speed, and toughness in this form have greatly improved, and the flight speed of the three pairs of wings has also become faster, but none of the divine abilities of the Blazing Sky Divine Servant have been obtained. "That's right, it's pure delusion to directly become a blazing god, even if it is the multi-form of the desire demon, it can't accommodate the form of a good creature. ”
However, as long as Fei Qi puts away the evil aura and then uses divine magic, he can also disguise the divine power. This kind of disguise is of little use in hell, but it is not the same in mortal world. Moreover, the strength of Feiqi's bloodline in the state of the white-winged female body has indeed increased, and the "stealth to the undead" spell can already be achieved without being detected when standing in front of the ghost. He just had to be careful not to crash directly into the necromancer now, it would be invisible.
"Hehe, it doesn't seem to be a big problem to survive to the end. What's next?" Feige laughed happily.
