Chapter 19: The Compensation of Julius
"Zombie hunter?"
Julius and Yoko were stunned, but fortunately, both of them were descendants of ancient ability families, and they had checked many materials in the church and understood that "zombies" were a special kind of dark monsters in China, similar to vampires, and were called "Oriental vampires".
A strong man of the church, because of the absorption of the "Dominus" mark, belongs to Dracula's "dominant power", Xia Noya, who has not aged or died for more than 100 years, once encountered "zombies" in the Castlevania battle against Dracula in 1862.
That zombie left a deep impression on Xia Noya, and even the Dominus nuclear explosion that could destroy Dracula's body could not completely destroy it, and in the end, he could only use the "Sealing Evil" spell to barely seal the zombie wearing the official uniform of the Qing Dynasty and jumping in battle.
Later, Xia Noya left a record of zombies, and both Julius and Yoko saw that record.
With the etiquette of a vampire hunter, Julius leaned over to let Lin Meng into the house, closed the door and said, "Forgive me for being lonely, zombie, I can understand what it is, but your identity ...... There is also an ancient family against zombies and ghosts, the Lin family, which I haven't heard of. ”
"Our Lin family is inherited from a Taoist priest with the Taoist name Yimei, he is good at using glutinous rice, ink bucket line, black donkey hooves, and peach wood sword to deal with zombies, that Taoist priest once fought against, a vampire from your West."
Lin Meng said a few words.
"Oh? So you came to Transylvania to deal with vampires? ”
Yoko smiled: "In my perception, your strength is slightly stronger than that of ordinary people, but it is too far from dealing with vampires...... To be honest, I'm curious about your identity as a zombie hunter, if you only have this kind of strength, I'm afraid you won't be able to destroy zombies. ”
"Now I really can't ......"
Lin Meng put the box on his back on the table, and the rough linen cloth covering it was pulled open, and a metal box with a cumbersome pattern and a dragon-shaped pattern was immediately revealed.
Just as Julius and Yoko were amazed by the exquisite pattern on the surface of the box, the metal box opened on all sides, and a golden light rushed straight to the roof, revealing a cyan dragon-shaped armor in the light, exuding sacred, vast, and dazzling brilliance!
"This—This is ......"
The vampire hunter and the magician both stood up in shock, and it was precisely because of the strength of the two of them that they could feel the power contained in this unknown armor - I am afraid that the artifact-level armor such as the Orlock suit, the robe of death, and the demon armor in this world realm may not be stronger than this dragon-shaped armor!
"This is the sacred garment inherited from my ancestors, and it is also my original armor used to fight against zombies and ghosts......"
"You're right, I'm weak right now, but that's not my real strength......"
Lin Meng's face was a look of lost soul: "I encountered a monster in a battle - it seems that it is a Western witch who has mastered black magic, and I have been cursed. I don't know what kind of curse caused me to lose my strength, and my body became so weak that I couldn't even put on this armor. ”
"I came to the West with my armor on my back, hoping to lift the curse of my body. I heard that Count Dracula, the vampire who once cursed God, became the Demon King over the long years, the power of all the dark powers—mastering, dominating, destroying, copying, summoning...... And even the source of the curse! ”
Julius seemed to have some understanding: "Then you came here in the hope of finding a way to lift the mysterious curse and restore the power through the relationship between Dracula and the dark power?" ”
"Yes."
The 50-year-old vampire hunter pressed his hand on Lin Meng's shoulder, and the space around the two of them seemed to turn into a stream of water at this moment, with a circle of divine and inexplicable white ripples of light shaking, and after a few minutes, Julius let go of his hand.
"I'm in you, I feel it, and it seems to hide some strength...... Moreover, I did detect a faint aura of dark magic. ”
"This level of dark magic alone can't be a curse, I didn't find any signs of a curse, but just now I used my divine power to completely dispel the magic aura." Julius touched the brown beard on his lips and did not continue to speak.
He was quite skeptical of Lin Meng's identity as a "zombie hunter".
How can such a weak person be a warrior who can defeat zombies? But the "Holy Clothes Battle Armor" that appeared next made Julius believe Lin Meng's words a little. With such powerful equipment, it is impossible for an originally weak person to possess it.
Powerful artifacts will choose their masters, and the weak can't control them, such as Julius's waist, the inconspicuous black leather whip is actually one of the top artifacts to destroy demons: the whip of God's blessing! Otherwise, without Belmondo blood, you can't dominate the whip!
Investigating Lin Meng's body, this is undoubtedly a weak person, strangely seems to have some kind of ability that cannot be exerted, and there is a faint dark aura.
Julius thinks that in the whole of Europe, it is difficult for anyone to be more sensitive to dark magic than him, and the curse does belong to a kind of dark magic, and Lin Meng's body does not have any curse at all!
"No, sir, I feel that the curse is still weakening my body and even binding my soul!"
"Through consciousness I can activate the curse, but then my physical form will change and I will become a cat. I know, Mr. Julius, Miss Yoko, if you don't believe that I have a curse on me, let me take the initiative to inspire you to show it! ”
Due to the monster-like action in the abandoned village a few days ago, Lin Meng had 800 universal points, and now he pays 200 points to activate the cat transformation technique.
The moment he turned into a black cat, Lin Meng felt that Julius's body was like the sun, releasing a deadly flame of light that seemed to melt his soul! He let out a scream of "meow", and immediately dissolved the cat-changing spell and changed back into a human form.
The blood bar on the top of Lin Meng's head was already half empty...... The cat-changing technique, the black cat that has become contains dark magic in its body, and Julius's divine power is too powerful, almost making him die in the divine power that unconsciously emanates from the cat-changing technique!
You must know that the black cat's physical strength is only 4 points!
Seeing Lin Meng's hands propped up on the table, gasping weakly, Julius showed a look of guilt.
"I'm sorry for the hurt I did to you."
As the heir of an ancient European family and a vampire hunter with divine powers, Julius has a true aristocratic quality. Justice, kindness, compassion for the weak, and indifference to the pain of others, coupled with the "curse" that the other party inspires, is to prove his suspicions, thus deepening some of his guilt.
In fact, it was precisely because he understood Julius's character that Lin Meng dared to come with the holy clothes on his back. If he had entered the headquarters of the Order of the Light of New Life a few days ago with him, the garments would have become someone else's.
"Yoko, do you feel it? It was the breath of dark magic. Julius turned his head and looked at the magician beside him.
"Yes, it's weird, it's similar to the transfiguration magic that a witch wields, but he can't be a witch, and ...... In his body, the dark aura that remained before was purified by your divine power, and even a witch could not launch transformation magic. ”
Yoko said slowly.
The hearts of the two were full of confusion, Lin Meng said: "So I came here to join the team of the crusade against Dracula, now Dracula has not been resurrected, but a woman named Selia has opened the gates of hell by performing an evil ritual and summoning the demon into the castle, and the demon king is destined to be born!" ”
"If I can destroy the Demon King, maybe the curse caused by the dark magic will be lifted on me."
Julius asked, "How did you learn that Celia used a ritual to open the gates of hell?" ”
"I killed one of the cultists who attacked me." Lin Meng wrapped his waist around his waist, and put the blood-colored robe and cultist badge on the table, "I learned from him. ”
"I can understand your eagerness to lift the curse, but with your current strength, it is too dangerous to venture into the crusade." It was Yoko who spoke, and the magician didn't want to include unknown strangers in this operation.
"I can act with Julius!"
Lin Meng paused for a moment, and then said: "In Castlevania, there should be a witch, if I can find some way to lift the curse in advance, I can restore my original strength and become a reliable helper!" ”
Julius's resolute face froze, and after thinking for half a minute, he began to shake his head, slowly but surely! Seeing this action, Lin Meng's heart was cold, and the attempt to contact the two and rely on Julius's strength to insert into the plot flow was probably going to fail.
Sure enough, the next moment, Julius said in a tone that could not be objected to: "It's a pity, if it had been 36 years ago, I would have allowed your request, but now that I am old, the divine power has faded a lot. ”
"In Castlevania, there are dangerous hell demons, demon gods, and two demon king candidates, and I am not sure that I will protect you in the face of a powerful enemy. I promised you to take you into it, but caused your death, and then I will always have a troubled conscience. ”
Julius persuaded again: "The curse, there is always a way and hope to unravel it, take the risk, once you die, there will be no second life - hehe, you are not Dracula who can be resurrected infinitely." ”
Lin Meng sighed, he really felt a little exhausted, in this world world that was familiar with intelligence, he did his best, hoping to integrate into the plot flow, but the huge gap in strength was like a moat, blocking the achievement of this goal.
"When the trouble of the new light is solved, we will take you to the Holy See headquarters in the Vatican, whether it is to ask the Pope to help, or to invite Lord Charnoya, we should be able to get rid of you, the strange curse of turning into a cat." Yoko comforted.
Hearing this, Lin Meng was depressed and wanted to vomit blood, how could he have any curse? It's a good thing to have access to these two people, but in more than a day, he's leaving!
Looking at Lin Meng's gloomy expression, Julius felt a little unbearable in his heart, and before, when he "inspired a curse" on Lin Meng by emitting divine power, it obviously caused a lot of damage, which made him feel guilty and have the idea of compensating Lin Meng.
He took a package, opened it, and there were some items in it: a knife, an axe, a blue bottle, a Bible, a cross!
