"Believers...... Priest ......"

Cheng Shen secretly thought about the church's name for the divine blood monster, and his mind was a little delicate.

He looked at Guerra's stall, "I don't have any materials to exchange for now, what should I exchange for your goods?" "It's not for nothing that Gramein knew he was a newcomer, but he still told him to trade.

"Everything of value can be recycled! Gra! ”

The black spirit's eyes lit up.

"Gold?"

Cheng Shen asked, most of the rewards he had received from the church had been used to order medicine from the Holy Hospital.

Now all that is left is two gold coins and some bits and pieces of silver and bronze.

"Gold coins don't want! Hunters don't use gold! You can trade your organs or your soul for it! Gra! ”

Guerra looked greedy.

If Cheng Shen has found his body now, he can meet the previous request, and he will not want to trade with him again in his life.

"Soul ......"

A trace of thin and transparent substance was extracted from Cheng Shen's fingers.

"My soul, what price can you give?"

He asked softly.

"A blood nucleus?" Guerra looked at the soul silk that he easily withdrew, his eyes straightened, and he even forgot his oral habits, and after quoting the price, he regretted again and again: "No, no, no, Gera can produce half a blood core!" ”

"Too little."

Cheng Shen shook his head.

After his soul and spirit were fused, the amplification effect of the Blue Whale Meditation Method could directly act on his soul power strength.

However, the increase value has been reduced by a lot.

Extracting one percent of his soul power requires him to meditate for at least a whole day, and now that he doesn't have two spare tires with him, he has almost no time to meditate, and every trace of soul power withdrawn is a real weakening.

"I can give you this soul for the time being, and when I come out, I will redeem it with something of higher value."

Cheng Shen proposed.

“…… How can you be sure you'll be back? Grah? ”

Guerra was full of distrust.

"If I can't come back, isn't this soul yours? I'm only asking for five appraisal scrolls. ”

Cheng Shen said.

He basically didn't use those divine blood amplification props, and his means of dealing with divine blood monsters were not by weapons or direct attacks.

As for the blood of God.

He just wanted to undergo a transformation, but he couldn't find a doctor he could trust.

In such an environment, Cheng Shen did not dare to put his safety in the hands of an unfamiliar person.

So the only thing he could use at the moment was the identification scroll.

With the scroll, he could know that those parts of the god's blood monster were valuable, so he could collect them and exchange them for more items with Guerra.

"Only five scrolls? Gra ...... Deal! ”

Guerra clapped his hands.

It took out a special vial and put a wisp of Cheng Shen's soul into it, and twisted it a few more times with confidence.

Cheng Shen quietly picked up a stack of identification scrolls from its stall and turned to leave.

He could still sense the presence of that soul.

Mastering the secret method of a thousand bodies of demon souls, each wisp of his soul is equivalent to a clone.

Even if Guerra wanted to do something with his soul, Cheng Shen would be able to detect it in time, either destroy it, or kill it...... It's a surefire deal for him.

"Have you decided to go into the night?"

The nun asked softly.

"I'm ready."

Cheng Shen replied.

The nun covered one of her palms on the top of Cheng Shen's head, and the movements were very gentle, but her hand was too big, as if Mount Tai was pressing on the top.

directly covered Cheng Shen's entire head.

"The monsters of the night have reoccupied the hidden village, and that area should have been cleared by the next group of hunters, as long as you can retrieve the vertebrae of a goat priest, you can complete this duty."

The nun's voice shook like a hazy soul bell.

"Now, night falls......"

dark

instantly enveloped Cheng Shen's mental vision.

He began to feel his body falling, and a system prompt mixed with the noise of electricity rang in his ears at the same time.

[Trigger Quest - Hidden Village!] 】

【Hidden Village】

【Mission】

[Difficulty: lv41~??? 】

[Description: When the night covered the entire village and the sun never rose, the bewildered people began to pray to the gods by any means necessary until they attracted unspeakable attention......

The village where the nightmare is entrenched still roams a handful of heretics exiled by the Church, so kill a heretical priest and claim its spine! 】

[Reward: 800,000 experience, +3 Divine Blood Core, Hunter Badge]

[Punishment: Loss of Hunter Qualifications]

[Time limit: 8 hours]

……

Soon, there was a feeling of stepping on the ground under his feet, the fog around him had not yet dissipated, and the cold and chaotic touch made Cheng Shen know that he had fallen into a nightmare.

It's still a nightmare area of the Black Mist level.

The difficulty of this mission has already reached the fourth-order threshold at the beginning.

Especially the target of the quest requires hunting.

Priest, this should correspond to the secondary evolution stage of the god's blood monster.

At the very least, they are all fourth-order elite-level monsters!

Cheng Shen was secretly speechless.

He does have the almost invincible skill of reincarnation desperately, but the premise is to expose the soul of the other party.

The souls of most living beings are encased in spiritual bodies.

A high-level monster, its soul strength may be comparable to that of ordinary people who have not cultivated, but the increase in level will definitely affect the increase of wisdom attributes, and the spiritual strength of high-level monsters will never be low.

This is also the reason why even if he masters the magic skill of reincarnation desperate realm, he can't face up to high-level monsters.

There is time for him to break through the opponent's mental barrier, and the other party can crush him to death countless times.

Fortunately, the target of this mission is not a god-blood monster.

It's heretics.

Otherwise, in the face of a monster that can barely be hurt by physical and magical means, he really doesn't know what to do except pick up the leak.

Translucent tentacles grow out of Cheng Shen's waist.

Invisible touch.

In the Nightmare Zone, the power of the Invisible Lord is unleashed.

Cheng Shen's aura became more hidden.

Moreover, the Invisible Touch allows him to open a door back to the Invisible Church at any time.

This gave him an additional life-saving ability in addition to the means of return given by the nun.

Be cautious about letting out your senses.

Everything around him gradually appeared in his field of vision. It was a country road, with broken stone slabs half-hidden in the dirt and overgrown with weeds.

Several figures in front of the road were quickly outlined.

Dressed in coarse linen shirts and black cloth hoods that had worn holes, revealing gray, stiff facial skin, the five of them moved slowly with strange steps in a posture of clasping their hands on their shoulders.

Their whispered prayers cut through the black fog.

God's kindness teaches us to love one another...... God's mercy enables us to forgive others...... God's forbearance enables us to trust one another......"

With prayers they began to perform terrifying rituals.

Each of the five took out a dagger from their arms and stabbed them viciously at the others, they frantically gnawed at each other's flesh and blood, tore each other's internal organs, gouged out their eyeballs and stuffed them into their mouths to chew and burst pulp!

The weirdest thing was that none of them screamed during the ritual.

As if possessed by a demon, they couldn't feel the pain, even if their chests were cut open and a lump of organs dragged outside, they still hurt each other as if they couldn't feel it.

Cheng Shen watched as the five big living people were left in a moment with only a skeleton of a flesh and blood mold lake, and the minced meat and internal organs on their bodies fell to the ground and mixed into a pile of meat puree, and they were no longer separated from each other.

"A bunch of maniacs......"

Cheng Shen couldn't help but think of the heretics mentioned in the mission.

"Alfred said that only the faith denominations that can abide by the rules of the church can stay and develop in the old city, and the three suspected false god churches in the city are currently in the city:

invisible

Blood Moon,

night

They all belong to regular sects that are honest and obedient......"

After the Blood Moon Plague, I don't know how many evil beliefs wanted to touch the land, and countless sects were born in the city, including churches like the Blood Moon and the Night Sect.

But after being purged by the healing church once, they all became much more honest......

A large number of wicked churches that practiced bloody sacrifices were either purged or driven out of the city.

The fanatical believers Cheng Shen saw in front of him obviously belonged to one of them.

"The Goat Sect, it doesn't sound reliable, but there are people who believe it......"

He shook his head.

At least one regular denomination will not allow its followers to kill each other for no reason...... Except, of course, those who need to harvest despair and pain through believers, like demons.

Just as he was pondering which way to go, there was an anomaly at the ceremony site ahead.

The blood flowing on the ground automatically converged into a six-pointed star array, enveloping the broken flesh and bones, and the wreckage began to tremble, and the bones of the flesh and blood mold lake were pulled to the middle by some force, and were roughly spliced together.

A moment.

Cheng Shen sensed a powerful soul burrowing into the bones in the six-pointed star array.

The skeleton of a sheep's head, which was made up of the remains of five people, immediately moved.

"It turned out to be a summoning ceremony......"

Cheng Shen said in his heart.

After the monster came, it walked to the other side of the road, Cheng Shen thought a little, and followed it from a distance, the monster summoned by the five people at the cost of their lives was obviously not idle and boring.

You may be able to find your mission goal by following it.

"Huh, that's?"

Perception flashed through the weeds on the side, and a plant with leaves that seemed to be condensed into black crystals caught his attention. Cheng Shen found out that there was no hidden monster around him, and immediately came to the plant to collect it.

[Obtain: Black Mist Grass +1!] 】

……

It is a plant in the nightmare world.

Cheng Shen had seen this herb on Gra's exchange list.

He plucked a leaf, put it in his mouth and chewed it, the moment he bit the leaf, the rich black mist suddenly exploded in his mouth, and half of Cheng Shen's face was instantly dyed gray and black, and then quickly faded.

"The medicinal properties are a little weird......"

Cheng Shen frowned.

Ordinary herbs are either blood or spirits, and after he knows the properties of the medicine, he can roughly know what type of medicine can be refined.

But the medicinal properties of this plant are complex......

Wrong

It's not herbal medicine at all.

"Phew......"

Cheng Shen came to his senses and spit out the residue in his mouth. Not all plants can be used in medicine, and some are classified as crafting materials.

This black mist grass is used to refine props.

Cheng Shen remembered that in Guera's sales list, it was used to exchange for a prop called the Black Mist Lantern.

The purpose of that thing is to dispel the black fog and provide vision.

“…… Keep it first, and when I go back and exchange everything in the Gera shop, I'll make it myself......"

Cheng Shen thought.

Continuing to follow the monster for some distance, a village appeared within his perceptual range. Broken wooden huts line the road, flagpoles rotting and clinging to dense blood-red veins.

This is a ruin that has been overrun by god-blood monsters.

"Whew!"

The tall sheep-headed monster let out a piercing cry as it approached the village, and the veins all over it immediately squirmed, condensing into blood-red figures. Behind the street corner wall crawled countless bloodhounds with fleshy skin.

These blood-infested hounds were covered in flesh turned out, their bodies wriggling like maggots, and their rotting tongues dripping with foul-smelling slime.

"Wang ......!"

Under Cheng Shen's gaze, a big battle unfolded.

The strength of this sheep-headed monster that descended from the corpse was almost equal to that of a fourth-order priest, and the first group of monsters to appear in the village were only low-level god-blood believers.

As soon as the two sides came into contact with the battle situation, it was a one-sided crush.

"It seems that this wandering heretic group does not get along well with the natives......"

Cheng Shen nodded slightly.

This is his chance.

Suddenly, a group of human figures intruded into his perception, and the sheep-headed monster attracted the attention of a large number of god-blood monsters, who took the opportunity to climb out of the wall on one side of the village, apparently trying to take advantage of the opportunity to escape.

"Are there any living people in this village?"

Cheng Shen was surprised.

But when he saw the people, he realized what they were, led by a woman dressed in gray robes, with a white sheep's head sewn high on her chest, and a sheep's head staff in her hand.

The people who followed her were either dressed in rudimentary villager clothes, or in ill-fitting hunter-style leather armor and trench coats.

All of them have fierce faces.

The group looked like a ragtag militia formed in the village.

But the murderous aura exuded by them was even more terrifying than that of soldiers who had been on the battlefield for a long time.

"The monster is here to rescue this besieged group of infidels."

Cheng Shen suddenly understood.

"The woman at the head should be a goat priest, and her strength is a bit strong......" The dark and shiny spirit body made Cheng Shen's perception dare not approach, the other party at least has a fourth-order lord or even a peak-level strength!

Even the little brothers around her are not easy to mess with.

Rumble!

Broken buildings.

Blood-red tentacles filled with thunder and lightning chased after them, and the woman raised her staff, and the flesh of one of the closest believers to her was instantly drained, turning into deep black energy, condensing into a huge sheep's head and blasting backwards.

Suddenly

The sky is falling apart.

The burst of power close to the fourth-order lord level leveled the surrounding buildings in an instant, creating a blank flat in the village.

Flesh tentacles shattered.

But the infidels also paid the price with their lives.

The bad news is that this blow also completely blocked the pursuit from the village, so that Cheng Shen could not see the scene of both sides losing and losing, and the goddess officer fled from the village with a group of infidels and ran desperately towards the wilderness.

"The target of the mission should be this group of people, but we can't let them run. But with their strength, it will definitely be no fun to attack head-on......"

Cheng Shen's figure faded.
