Chapter 25: Goal, Vatican!
When the Chinese team returned to Count Dracula's castle, they found that the dark clouds that had been permeating the castle were gone, and the coercion that enveloped everyone when they entered the castle seemed to have disappeared, as if the soul of the entire castle had been sucked away at once, and Dracula was the soul of this castle!
"Captain, something seems wrong." Xu Fan couldn't help but ask.
"There's no Dracula in the castle, go down and take a look." Xi Cheng walked to the main seat of the hall, slapped the seat with one hand, and the bottom of the hall cracked, and the Chinese team and the others entered the inside of the ancient castle like last time.
"These weapons are still there." Gu Yuekai couldn't help but babble as he looked at the weapons and equipment on the staircase wall, and there was a hint of envy in his eyes.
"These things have been sealed or cursed by Count Dracula, don't take them down, otherwise the gains will outweigh the losses." Xu Fan reminded him, "At the beginning, Count Dracula only allowed us to choose, and naturally he had his own plans, if he didn't allow others to take it, he didn't lift the seals and curses on the weapons and equipment, if anyone dared to take it, the end would definitely be extremely miserable." ”
Gu Yuekai hurriedly shook his hands and signaled that he would not touch them.
The group descended the ladder and entered the Rotunda, where in the center of the Hall sat Frankenstein, who was pouring himself brandy, his cheeks flushed and his mouth steaming with wine.
Hearing the sound of the Chinese team coming, Frankenstein raised his head, caught Gu Yuekai in a drunken daze, and then sighed in a tone of hatred: "It's a pity, it's a pity, obviously the bloodline transplant operation was also successful, and that werewolf is still a noble werewolf royal family with the blood of the wolf king who was personally captured by Count Dracula, how come you can only play the level of a low-level werewolf, it's too tyrannical, it's a pity." ”
Frankenstein's words made Gu Yuekai blush, he actually knew that he had a lot of room for development after he became a wolf. However, he found that once he used too much force, he would lose his mind, and when he was able to maintain his sanity, he could only mobilize a small part of the force, so it would become the current embarrassing state of not being up or down.
"What about the Draculas?" Xi Cheng asked Frankenstein.
"He's gone to hell, he's gone to find his woman." Frankenstein didn't want to hide anything, and he didn't need to hide anything, so he directly and generously told Count Dracula's whereabouts.
"Went to hell? Isn't it still 44 days before the teleportation circle of Hell can be successfully connected? Xi Cheng asked rhetorically.
"Well, theoretically, yes, but after 44 days, the hell side can be connected to the human world, and the existence of hell will be able to enter the human world through this teleportation circle. But in fact, since the establishment of the magic circle, the existence of the human world can already enter hell from the human world, hehe, understand? Frankenstein drank another glass of brandy.
"Count Dracula went to hell to find Elizabeth?" This time it was Xu Fan who asked the question.
"Yes, four hundred years ago, Satan imprisoned the soul of Elizabeth, who died by suicide, well, you know, according to Christian teaching, suicide is considered a great sin. Because your life and everything is given by God, you cannot end your life with your own will, because it is a blasphemy against God. Therefore, the soul of a person who commits suicide cannot enter heaven, but can only fall into hell. And Satan took control of Elizabeth's soul because of this, forcing Count Dracula to make a deal with him, so that Count Dracula would set up a teleportation circle for him to communicate with hell on earth. Satan promises that hell and the earth will be completely united. It was the moment when Elizabeth's soul returned to earth and was resurrected. ”
"That'...... Count, why is he? Xu Fan couldn't understand that as long as he waited for another 44 days, why should he go to hell again, it was an absolute risk.
"Huh. Kid, how old have you lived? How old have you been? How could a haughty man like Count Dracula, who had been deceived and fooled by God, be willingly manipulated and controlled by a Satan who was almost equal to God? Frankenstein snorted disdainfully.
"You mean Count Dracula is going to hell to save Elizabeth's soul himself?" Xi Cheng's face suddenly became ugly, because once Count Dracula had any accident in hell, it would mean that the Chinese team's mission would fail, and all of them would be wiped out by the main god.
If Count Dracula is still in the world and in the castle, the Chinese team believes that with the strength of themselves and others and the strong strength of Count Dracula, if they defend the castle, even if the Holy See goes out to attack here with all its might, their side will not be afraid of the slightest, but Count Dracula went directly to hell, there are all kinds of powerful existences in hell, not to mention that there is Satan who is almost as powerful and omnipotent as God, and Satan in hell is equivalent to God in heaven, and their strength can be fully exerted. There are no longer many restrictions on the amount of power that can be projected into the world.
It can be said that Count Dracula is a powerful existence in the world, because there are very few people in the world who can threaten his existence, but in hell, there are still many, many more fierce and powerful beings than Count Dracula.
"Yes, however, Count Dracula has also made a lot of preparations, and this preparation has been done for nearly four hundred years, and because of your arrival, Count Dracula's preparations in the past 400 years have become even more sufficient." Frankenstein seems to be really getting drunk, his mind is shaking, and he will go straight to sleep at any moment.
"Me?" Xi Cheng felt calculated in his heart again, this damn Count Dracula, it seemed that he could easily calculate others at every step.
"Yes, most of Count Dracula's blood and vampire power are on your body, and no matter how powerful Satan is, he can only watch the world through vague induction, just like God is omnipotent, he has to rely on the power of the Holy See to be able to implement his will in the world, their own control over the world can actually be said to be very low, you now have a strong Count Dracula's breath, and even you are more like Dracula than Dracula now, Therefore, when Satan's gaze sweeps over the world, when he perceives you, he will think that Count Dracula is still on earth, and he will not realize that the real Count Dracula has gone to hell to his lair. ”
Frankenstein coughed hard, and then he fell asleep on the table.
"I see." Xu Fan came to his senses.
"In this way, it is impossible for me to even go to hell to help Dracula, because once my breath disappears in the world, it means that Satan knows that Dracula is no longer in the world, and at the same time, it will bring great danger to Count Dracula in hell." Xi Cheng said heavily.
"Captain, what should we do next? If Count Dracula has an accident in Hell in 44 days, we will also be finished. Xu Fan said worriedly.
"Do what you want, Dracula is in hell, we can't do anything about him, we can't go to hell to protect him, whether he is dead or alive, we can't do anything, but, at least, he is not dead now, we have not been erased by the Lord God, we can't just spend the next 44 days in this castle in fear." Xi Cheng asked rhetorically.
"The captain means, we ......"
"Isn't there still a side quest, let's go and complete the side quest to earn bonus points and bonus items, whether Count Dracula is dead or alive, whether we will be obliterated by the main god, we don't need to keep this uncontrollable fear in our hearts, it's better to find something we can do now to complete." Xi Cheng looked at everyone in the Chinese squad and ordered: "Target, Vatican!" Regardless of whether we can complete this task and return to the main god space this time, as long as we are alive, there is no reason to give up, there is no Dracula in the castle, and there is no need for our Chinese team to continue to guard here, the Vatican is our next goal! ”
"It doesn't matter if it's dead or alive, but even if Count Dracula had an accident in hell and we were wiped out by the Lord God, we can at least see what the most mysterious center of the Holy See is like before we die, and at least before we die, we can kill happily." Yao Wu said as he gently stroked the chain knife hanging from his waist, and the chain knife let out a trembling sound, as if echoing Yao Wu's words.
"Ha Luha, too, no matter if he can return to the main god space alive, I will at least have a chance to go to the Vatican for free sightseeing." Gu Yuekai nervously patted his palm, this person has always been very optimistic and open-minded.
"Then I really want to see if the Western Holy Arts are powerful, or if my Eastern Dao is stronger, I really want to try it." Xu Fan also became a little nervous.
"I ...... I'm not going. Wu Ji's voice sounded around everyone.
"It's okay if you don't go, it should be safe in this castle." Xi Cheng glanced at Wu Ji and said, he thought that Wu Ji was afraid of going to the Vatican to fight, but this was also normal, Wu Ji was just a newcomer who entered this time, and he only had a forward cloak, even if he went to the Vatican, he couldn't help much, so it was better to stay here.
As if reading everyone's gaze, Wu Ji waved his hand a little anxiously and said, "No...... No...... It's not what you think, I found that there are a lot of books and magic scrolls in the Bloodline script here, I can stay and print these Bloodline magic translations and rubbing, and then ......"
When Wu Ji said this, he found that his teammates looked at him as if they had seen a monster.
And Xi Cheng's eyes seemed to be lit with excitement all of a sudden—blood magic! (To be continued......)
