Rancid, filthy, dark.

Although the voodoo bomb caused fire attribute damage, after the fire and smoke dissipated, the only impression left on Chu Ge was that.

"Hint: The host gains life drain and restores 6.2 health!"

If it was an alien beast in its heyday, the damage of the voodoo bomb might not be enough to seriously injure it, but now?

The benefits of Chu Ge's previous attack on the shoulder blades of the alien beast finally came to the fore, and after that dark green fire flashed, the right hand of the alienated beast was directly exploded, and even the wound had been burned into a scorched black!

Although the skin had been burned by Harvey's flames before, there was no real danger to the alien beasts, but now that Chu Ge was in front of him, it was already a different scene.

Large swaths of the alien beast's body had been completely carbonized, and as it struggled in pain, those skins fell as if burned out of soot, and the skin on its cheeks turned into powdery shards, revealing gums like rotten wood!

The end of the crossbow!

Although there was still more than half of his health left, Chu Ge still consumed the second secondary recovery herb, and after completing the accumulation of the Silver Casting Sword Technique, he rushed to the Alien Beast, slashing it away with a sword with the sound of breaking the wind, and the Alien Beast also howled and launched a rebellion!

The last revolt.

******

[Lapis Lazuli passive ability takes effect, SP+45]

[Heart of Navin Moore successfully captures Wandering Soul*1, Soul Strength is Level 1]

"Hint: Host Active Ability [Nightmare Marker] proficiency increased!"

"Hint: Emily the Alien in the manor has been successfully killed by the host, and the goal of the continuous mission (step 2) has been completed, please find Add to settle the task reward!"

Looking at the alien beast lying on the ground and losing its vitality, Chu Ge's face did not show a tired expression, but his hands hung down weakly, and he threw the heavy sword on the ground with a loose finger.

Although the alien beast in the seriously injured state could not pose any threat to his life, it still made him waste a lot of effort, and now his hands and wrists have a faint purple and blue color, you can imagine what kind of pressure Harvey was under when he was entangled with the alien beast before!

"Shouldn't advanced tasks be on the agenda......?"

Chu Ge shook his head, took out the blood gem in the pouch, and observed it carefully.

During the final battle with the Alien Beast just now, he deliberately found an opportunity to take the Blood Gem from Harvey's corpse and re-attach it to himself.

I don't know if it's his own delusion, Chu Ge always felt that after killing the alien beast, there was a little more blood sealed in the blood gem.

"Can a second-order peak creature only provide 45 SP...... Although Harvey has made a lot of efforts, the gap between the second and third orders is really big. ”

It is worth mentioning that when Chu Ge collected souls before, he was not able to obtain SP from which servants, so his remaining total SP value is only 50 points.

After glancing at the proficiency of his various skills, Chu Ge thought for a moment, did not use it immediately, and walked towards Harvey's corpse.

Judging by the sight in front of him alone, even he could hardly tell which creature it belonged to.

Although the torso was protected by the black chain mail, Harvey's limbs had completely disappeared, leaving only a few pitch-black sticks nearby, and even the head that had been slurred by the alien beast had turned into a black mark on the ground.

Because of their close proximity, Harvey's corpse was inevitably affected by the voodoo bomb, the blood flowing from it clotted into a hard mass in an instant, and the limbs severed by the alien beast were burned beyond recognition in the firelight.

Either way, any player will only be left with a maximum of one item of value (usually the most valuable one) after death, the rest will become permanently damaged, and the player's gold will be converted into a high-value expensive item (the player's gold can be stored in the Mark of Noah in a digitized form).

If I wasn't mistaken, the chain mail that was still on Harvey's torso was what he left behind.

Of course, the premise is that he does not mistake the identity of the other party.

[Feuerbach's Gift (Bloodline Binding)]

【Origin: Midgarh City】

[Mass: 1.9Kg.] 】

[Material: Active black gold, steel, green slime tissue, purified blood.] 】

[Equipment Rarity: Silver.] 】

[Equipment Type: Armor (Half-Body)]

[Usage Condition: Strength greater than 3.] 】

[Durability: 21/70.] 】

[Max Defense Increase: 13 points.] 】

[In the process of casting, Feuerbach, a famous craftsman in Midgar City, used the latest technology to successfully combine slime tissue and active black gold, although the result did not reach the imagined appearance, this equipment still has some magical effects. 】

[Additional feature: Self-healing.] As long as it is placed in water that can be exposed to sunlight, this chain mail will slowly repair itself. 】

[Passive Skill: Hidden Shelter (Unusable).] 】

[Action Skill: Activate Armor (Unusable)] 】

[Only the immediate family members of the original holder are eligible to activate both abilities.] 】

"Did you add your own blood when you forged, it looks like these two skills should be very powerful...... It's a pity. ”

Chu Ge smiled bitterly and put the chain mail back into the storage space.

Although it is unclear what the specific effects of [Hidden Shelter] and [Activated Armor] are, the words "Active Black Gold" appear in the forging material of this chain mail.

It is a dark gold-level material, and Chu Ge also used it to forge powerful equipment in his previous life, although it cannot greatly improve the basic attributes of equipment (attack power/defense power), but it can be used as a carrier medium for some high-level abilities, so those two skills should not be bad.

However, for Chu Ge, the only thing that really comes in handy is the good defense bonus, if you give it to other players, it is conservatively estimated that it can be sold for around 300 gold coins, which is only worth the lowest kind of silver equipment.

If conditions permit, maybe Chu Ge will melt down this piece of chain mail and refine the active black gold inside.

After putting away the chain mail, he continued to search carefully around the corpse, and soon found a new harvest.

[Ruby (Common): Valuables, you can get 80 gold coins (general) by exchanging them directly to Noah, and there will be different price fluctuations in different regions. 】

[Sapphire (Common): A valuable, you can get 150 gold coins (not universal) by exchanging them directly to Noah, and there will be different price fluctuations in different regions. 】

Scattered Gold Coins (Universal)*14.

"Now I finally don't have to worry about the orc witch doctor's arrears...... I don't know if he treats my baby well. ”

After putting away the gold coins, Chu Ge rummaged through the corpse of the alien beast for a while, and only after there was really nothing to gain, did he rush in the direction where Alyssa had left.

"What the hell happened to her......"

*******

At some point, the moonlight had already spilled out of the dark clouds.

Three hundred meters away from the scene of the alien beast's wreathing, Alyssa collapsed in front of the small building where she lived, but she did not show any injuries, but curled up like a baby and fell asleep on the ground, her expression very peaceful.

In Chu Ge's eyes, the starlight and moonlight in the sky intersected, turning into a soul-washing brilliance shining on Alyssa's body, and the girl's slender body also seemed to have gained some kind of mysterious power, absorbing these rays of brilliance into her body.

After receiving the light of brilliance, a faint mist also formed around Alyssa's body, and the weeds nearby began to grow slowly at a speed visible to the naked eye, and even a small cornflower bloomed between the gaps in the road.

"It's ......"

Even in the Orlanka Continent, this kind of abnormal scene is rare, Chu Ge frowned slightly, and cautiously approached Alyssa.

Just as he entered the mist, the mist suddenly began to churn, pouring into his body like a clear spring, and the air seemed to become fresh in an instant, and even the scars on his body from the previous battle were slowly recovering!

"The cyan vines are really related to that guy!"

Seeing the cyan light pattern on Alyssa's wrist like a bracelet, a trace of murderous intent flashed in Chu Ge's eyes, but he quickly calmed down,

"Awakening at such times...... Should it be said that people are not as good as heaven? ”

He smiled bitterly, didn't move Alyssa, just sat on the ground and waited quietly, and the mist didn't stop surging, and continued to flow into his body.

When his health and source energy levels were restored to full levels, the speed at which the mist poured into his body decreased considerably, but a small part of it was still absorbed by his skin.

After more than half an hour, the changes in Alyssa's body finally stopped, the moonlight was no longer dazzling, the mist slowly dispersed, and the air lost its freshness just now.

"Hint: The host's body is nourished by the healing of life, the maximum health is +5, the maximum source energy is +5, and the base defense is +2."

In Noah's prompt sound, Alyssa gradually woke up, and when she saw Chu Ge sitting next to her, she blinked and was startled with sleepy eyes, and sat up immediately with a red face.

"What time is it? How did you end up here? What happened? ”

After quickly recalling the previous incident, Alyssa finally reacted and quickly asked Chu Ge.

Although she was a little anxious, there was not much worry in her expression, since Chu Ge could sit here safely and soundly, then the crisis must have been resolved.

Chu Ge immediately replied:

"It's been about forty minutes since that monster attacked us, and you haven't been back until the battle is over, so I'm a little worried and I'm looking for it, and Mr. Harvey ......"

Seeing Chu Ge's expression, a sense of foreboding suddenly rose in Alyssa's heart, and as soon as she opened her mouth, she found that her voice became very hoarse, and she even struggled to speak:

"Mr. Harvey...... Mr. Harvey, what's wrong with him? ”

Chu Ge turned his face to the side and said very regretfully:

"To protect me, and to keep the other servants on the manor safe, he and the monster perished......"

"What......?"

Alyssa's expression instantly became hollow.

*******

The riots continued all night.

While Chu Ge waited for Alyssa to wake up, there were already servants who had calmed down to inform the second-in-command of the manor, that is, Mr. Jack, who had just returned tonight.

The reason why Hannah didn't celebrate with Chu Ge in the same place when there was a bonfire was because she went to look for Jack. The accident caused by the Alien Beast occurred in just over ten minutes after she left.

Led by Jack, the servants bravely returned to the celebration point in front of the mansion, and then saw the mess.

Finding that many of his friends who had worked with him had died on the spot, Hannah fainted on the spot as soon as his face turned pale, and Jack's face was so heavy that he could wring out water, and he beckoned for someone to start cleaning up while asking Petra to be informed.

Alyssa has not shown up since she returned to the small building, and with her character, it is estimated that she has fallen into deep self-blame, while Chu Ge left the manor very simply and came to live in an inn near Eddie's house.

It is not more pleasant to simply complete the task and not to carry out any aftermath work.

On the second day, Chu Ge went to the stone and bone shop early in the morning and handed over the sapphire as a mortgage payment to the orc witch doctor, but the old orc felt that this gem was not worth so many gold coins, so he shook his head and refused, so Chu Ge could only exchange it with Noah and then deliver it to the other party.

Although I really wanted to continue to buy some useful things here, without Noah's discount, the price of the items on the bill was instantly staggeringly high, and even a bottle of concentrated viscous fuel cost 170 gold coins, and Chu Ge had to leave with his own things.

When he returned to the hotel, Eddie still showed no signs of returning, and in order to save time, Chu Ge began to gather news for the next operation.

His next target was the news of the special reward, the fifth of the seven incredible events in the village of Nibelheim, a hundred miles southeast of Midgard, the strange screams of an old mansion in the middle of nowhere.

"Well, I remember that Noah's hint at that time was that the danger factor was C+ or above, and S+ or something didn't need to be considered, as for B-level or even close to A-level......"

"It's really curious!"

Although he was mentally prepared, when inquiring about the information of Nibelheim Village, Chu Ge still encountered great difficulties, only a very few people had heard of this village, and among those who had heard of it, very few really knew useful information.

on Shining Plaza.

"You said that place...... I remember there was a fire five years ago, and I don't know if anyone lived there. ”

An elderly coachman took the copper coin handed by Chu Ge and said recalling.

"Fire? Is something going on? Chu Ge asked.

The old coachman shook his head and said:

"I don't know about this, I just know that the fire seems to be quite serious, and it seems that there are not many survivors."

"That's ......"

Chu Ge was thoughtful, although the information in the other party's words was only half a claw, it was already the most news he had heard so far.

He said goodbye to the old coachman and walked on to the next carriage.

"Was it a fire five years ago......"

Chu Ge couldn't help but raise his head and looked at the statue of Isis the Great standing in the center of Glorious Square.

"Isn't it the year the emperor was assassinated, and is there any connection between the two?"

He smiled and shook his head, laughing at the out-of-the-box nature of his own thinking.

"But it was a year of many disasters...... he sighed with emotion, and Ino's memories were opened little by little.

"The tragedy of Silva's Winter Veil...... I'm finally going to meet you in the royal capital, and I really hope that we won't part ways like in my previous life. ”

Recalling the glorious and upright figure in his previous life, Chu Ge couldn't help but feel a little distracted.

"However, since you have chosen to be on the side of Hererys, you will have to go that far no matter what."
