Chapter 52: Count Me In
Seeing Bu Buwang's reaction, Su Xiao slowly walked to the oval building, leaned against the wall next to the door and looked inside.
The sacrificial altar is very empty, about more than three hundred square meters, the whole is circular, there are stone carvings at the edges, and the names are engraved under the stone carvings, although Su Xiao does not recognize these words, but he knows what one of the names means, Wild Hunter Kefilson.
The floor of the altar is paved with a light yellow stone slab, and it is these stone slabs that give the place a sense of security.
In the center there is a gray ashlar, carved with black lines, just looking at it, it makes people feel dizzy, and the spirit seems to be sucked into those lines.
The reason why Bu Bu Wang had that reaction just now was because there was a Taoist figure sitting in the innermost part of the altar, he was wearing black scale armor and holding a scepter, and it was the King of the Day, Erdals, who had cleaned up Bu Bu Wang in the palace to the point of doubting his life.
As if sensing Su Xiao's gaze, the Lord of the Day, Erdars, opened his eyes, because of the scale armor on his face, people couldn't see his appearance clearly.
"The living."
Erdals spoke, but he didn't stand up, just sat on a tall stone chair.
Su Xiao hesitated for a moment, then entered the sacrificial altar through the main entrance, he didn't feel hostility towards the King of Day.
"We ...... I have met, it was you who made Sayeto sit on the throne. ”
The Lord of Day's voice was muffled by the armor, and he let go of the scepter in his hand, and the scepter stood in place.
"Go back, there is no hope here, coexistence is the best way, we are betrayers, betrayers of Dead City."
After saying this, the Lord of the Sun closed his eyes, and the armor on his body gradually turned gray and turned into a stone sculpture.
Obviously, the Lord of the Day has not yet been fully assimilated by Dead City, as he was not a resident of this place in the first place, and only because of the responsibility of the Adgesh bloodline.
From the perspective of the Empire, the Lord of the Day, Urders, was almost a saint, he had ideals in his heart, but in order to keep humanity at peace for three hundred years, he gave up everything and sat on the throne.
[Hint: The Hunter has entered a safe area, the altar of sacrifice.] 】
[Do not actively attack Lord of the Day, Olders, as this will pose a great risk.] 】
[The sacrificial altar has been activated, and the hunter can use the Dark Star Stone in the center to improve his innate ability, which is a technology left over from the Motia Kingdom and is extremely rare. 】
[Each time you activate the Dark Star Stone, you need to consume 5% of the source of darkness, each talent can be increased up to 4 times, and the number of times it has been increased is 0/8, and the increase strength is determined according to the talent potential. 】
……
Sure that there was no danger to the sacrificial altar, Su Xiao came to the Dark Star Stone, which was the ashlar covered with black lines, this thing was one meter high, it seemed to be stone, but it was actually the core of a certain star.
Eminem and Veroni both entered the altar, only Bubuwang was still a little stunned, and it hesitated for a while before it trembled into the altar.
Click~
The stone carved King of the Day opened one eye, and the frightened Bu Buwang hurriedly ran to Su Xiao's side, clinging to Su Xiao, and it looked at the King of the Day's gaze clearly, don't suffer Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu is wrong.
With the hardest eyes, he expressed the most cowardly meaning, which is what Bu Buwang can do.
Su Xiao didn't pay attention to Bu Buwang's 'friendly' exchange with the Lord of the Day, he raised his hand and pressed it on the Dark Star Stone, and a stream of black energy appeared out of thin air and submerged into the Dark Star Stone.
You have consumed 5% of the Source of Darkness. 】
[Please select the desired upgrade talent, Soul Eater (S Rank)/Blood Beast (SSS Rank).] 】
As soon as Su Xiao chose to promote the Soul Eater, the sudden sharp pain caused him to lose his strength all over his body, and after stabilizing his body, he sat cross-legged in front of the Dark Star Stone.
Su Xiao's feeling now was very similar to when he first awakened the Spirit Eater talent, something in his body seemed to be broken down inch by inch, becoming stronger and then coming together.
The severe pain made the time longer, and I don't know how long it took for Su Xiao, who was covered in cold sweat, to come back to his senses.
"Whew~"
Su Xiao breathed a long sigh of relief, the green tendons on his neck flared up, after he checked his innate ability, the corners of his eyes jumped, not that the improvement effect was not good, but it was very good, but the feeling just now, he still had to experience it three times, no, he obtained a total of 27.9% of the source of darkness, that is, he could improve the soul eater four times, and the remaining source of darkness could also improve the blood beast once.
After hesitating for a moment, Su Xiao's hand pressed on the Dark Star Stone again......
Two hours later, Su Xiao's gaze looked straight ahead, and it took him a few seconds before he came back to his senses, during which he was thinking about one thing, that is, the relatively mild talent of the 'Soul Eater' had such an experience, so what would it be like to improve the Blood Beast?
After improving the Soul Eater four times in a row, Su Xiao could intuitively feel the change in this innate ability, although this was not a second awakening talent, but it was also a small awakening.
Soul Eater
Category: Killing Talent (Awakened once)
Level: S (the highest level of the first awakening)
Talent Effect (Passive): After killing the target, it will permanently capture 1~50 mana points (the maximum increase is 20 points), and restore the same value of mana and health (e.g., after killing an enemy, it will permanently increase 50 mana points and health).
Note: Each world token can permanently increase mana by up to 400 (up to a maximum of 200 points), and if the cap mana is reached, the Soul Eater will be fully activated, and the recovery effect after killing an enemy will be increased by 50%.
……
Soul Eater's strength is doubled, and if the battle is intense, it increases the mana by 400 per world, and the regeneration effect is increased by nearly half.
Su Xiao was a little looking forward to what would happen after the second awakening of the Spirit Eater, the awakening talent and the permanent enhancement talent were different, the former was a change in nature, and the latter was to increase the existing strength.
After the break, Su Xiao's hand pressed on the Dark Star Stone again, this time he wanted to improve the innate ability of the Blood Beast.
Rumble!
The blood qi erupted with Su Xiao as the central point, blowing Bu Buwang's hair, Bu Buwang did not react, it had long been used to it.
Bu Buwang didn't react, Veroni was different, she subconsciously took a few steps back, her pupils gradually contracted, she was looking at Su Xiao with shocked eyes, and the thought in her heart was: "What kind of person did I enter the Dead City with, have I lived enough." ”
The blood qi visible to the naked eye filled the sacrificial altar, and even spread out of the window, forming a bloody beast above the sacrificial altar, looking up to the sky and roaring.
……
On the outskirts of Dead City, near the Ringing River, on the roof of a church, the old god stick covered in blood was lying on the roof, and near him, there was a corpse, a little girl with black hair, with tattered wounds all over her body.
The old god's blood-stained fingers moved, and he slowly sat up, the skin on his face a little gray, and even cracked.
"Have you already arrived at the center, and I'm going to ...... too? As soon as possible. ”
The old god stood up and looked behind him to see the corpses of the inhabitants of Dead City.
With a click, the long-handled knife in the old god's hand shortened, and the jagged blade was full of blood and minced flesh.
The old god stick with a saw knife in one hand and a metal book in the other jumped from the roof, and on the book, all the monsters he had hunted, and on the last page, it was actually himself, the mad hunter Ken Rahan.
……
Nearly half an hour later, inside the sacrificial altar, Su Xiao, who was full of blood, stood up, and seeing his appearance, Veroni felt a little bad.
"Otherwise, let's run first, he seems to be a little wrong."
"Wang~ (You think too much)."
Bu Buwang tilted his head, don't say it's Su Xiao in this state, even if it's Su Xiao who has just returned from the ancient battlefield and has been completely eroded by blood and qi, it has seen it all, that's what it's called terrifying.
"Next destination, the Temple of Birth."
Su Xiao exhaled blood in his mouth, he had been near the Birth Hall before, but he didn't go in, because the most terrifying inhabitant of Dead City was there, it was the Black King Adgesh who had been completely assimilated.
And now, Su Xiao is ready to slaughter the former king, he has found all the places he can find, and the last piece of the Black King suit is either obtained in the Birth Hall or in the Supreme Sanctuary.
"Kukulin, if you go to the Nativity Palace, count me in."
An old man in a long black and brown leather coat, mottled with blood stains on the leather coat, leaned against the front door, and there was a saw knife standing at his feet, the skin on his face was slightly cracked, and his hair was full of gray inches, showing a fierce and bloodthirsty appearance.
"It's ...... It's handsome. “
Veroni grunted at the sight of this old god stick, and suddenly, she felt like she was the most salted fish.
