Chapter 395: Anton's Struggle
When Antonio slowly came to him, Chen Lun handed over the blood diamond in his hand.
"What is this? Mr. Jack. ”
Anton asked curiously as he stared curiously at the finger-sized red crystal in his palm.
"It's similar to the 'blood of sin' that you drank before, it's also a life concentrate, but it's more advanced than that......"
Chen Lun explained softly.
"Oh! I remember! The last time the 'bad guys' caused trouble, it was you who drank that blood on me that gave me the power to temporarily overwhelm it...... Will this stone work better? It's great! ”
Anton's ears twitched and he said happily.
"And Mr. Jack, how do I use it?"
"Hmmm......"
Chen Lun groaned for a moment.
In fact, it was the first time he had come into contact with blood diamonds, and he didn't know how to use them correctly.
But according to his occult attainments and the description of it on the panel, Chen Lun was not worried about what harm it would cause to Anton, so he said directly:
"Anton, according to your intuition, you feel the life force contained in it......"
Since the [A-rank Serial Mission: Sword Fighter's Third Ring] clearly states that the Blood Diamond can help Antonio overcome the obsession with the "Blasphemous" remnant, allowing him to completely master the [Super A-Rank Trickery-Blasphemous Sword], it shouldn't be too difficult to use it.
Antonio nodded in understanding, then stuck out his tongue and rolled the blood drill into his mouth, chewing it with a clatter.
Chen Lun couldn't help but be slightly stunned.
"Mr. Jack, the stone tastes strange, but it's not unpleasant......"
Antonio said vaguely.
Soon, its body underwent strange changes.
I saw Antonio suddenly roar, and all the cadres looked at it with concern.
"Ah...... Antonio's stomach is so hot! ”
It seemed to suppress the pain, and its body trembled violently.
Seeing this, Chen Lun immediately got up and supported the cow's body, and then turned his head to the crowd:
"Come and help in the back garden."
Immediately, he teleported Antonio to the lawn of the garden.
Boom!
The cow's body slammed into the ground and rolled over.
Its body temperature is gradually rising, and even steam is diffused, making it appear smoky in this cold weather.
"Anton's head hurts so much! My feet hurt too! And the back! Tail! ”
The cow growls as it struggles.
Chen Lun tried his best to control the scene on the side, and there was no better way to do this, this matter could only be survived by Anton himself...... And he also knows that with Anton's willpower of up to 80+, it is difficult to endure such pain, so you can imagine what kind of torture it is!
Soon, Antonio's skin began to peel off, revealing scarlet muscles, oozing blood all over his body, and squirming on the top of his head, back, hooves, and tail, as if something was growing.
The cadres of the circus then rushed to the scene, and their faces changed when they saw this shocking scene.
"Mr. Jack, Antonio is going to be fine, is he?"
Noah asked worriedly.
Chen Lun was secretly solemn, but on the surface, he showed a smile and said with relief:
"Don't worry, Anton is just fighting against the monster inside it, and its willpower is tenacious, even I am ashamed of myself...... With the help of the Blood Diamond, it will succeed, and we have to believe in it! ”
Everyone was relieved to hear this.
But everyone looked at the blood sprinkled on the lawn, and Antonio, who was constantly struggling and looking in great pain, and they didn't know what to do for a while.
Chen Lun turned his head to the girl with messy hair and said:
"Maggie, is there any painkiller?"
"Some of the regimental commanders."
Maggie took out a finger-thick pale yellow potion from the small bag on her waist and handed it over.
Chen Lun then instructed Noah:
"Use the [White Bone Gallery] and use the characteristic power of [Star Faction Sequence 7 - Heart Thief] to hypnotize Anton and relieve his pain."
"Yes! Mr. Jack! ”
Noah didn't hesitate and directly held the white bone key hanging on his chest.
In the next second, a virtual image of the gallery appeared behind his head, and an oil painting of three-color eyes was frozen.
Chen Lun also strode forward, using his 177 points of strength to forcibly hold Antonio's body, poured the potion into its mouth, and then stroked its forehead, and said in a deep voice:
"Hold on, Anton, the bad guy wants to take control of your body and take your freedom...... You can't succumb to it, you're yourself, the one who yearns for the carefree Antonio. You'll be fine with us, you just need to overcome it and take control of your own body and freedom! ”
When he said these words, Chen Lun couldn't help but think of his fate.
It's the same as Antonio at the moment.
Antonio could no longer respond to Chen Lun at this moment, and just kept howling.
After a few moments, its movement decreased.
And countless bones also grow in the cow's body, which are tightly wrapped inside, like a silkworm cocoon. Chen Lun stood aside, looking at the "cocoon of white bones" quietly resting on a messy lawn, but he was secretly relieved.
Because he has received a panel prompt for the completion of the task.
That means Antonio has succeeded!
[Completed A-Rank Serial Mission: Sword Fighter's Third Ring!] 】
[Obtain mission rewards: 20W XP, 400 gold pounds, and Antonio's opinion!] 】
[Antonio's favorability for you has increased!] Currently worshipped! 】
Chen Lun turned around and said to the cadres with worried faces:
"Don't worry, Antonio has succeeded...... It's in the process of metamorphosing, but it may take some time, and I'll move it to an empty room on the third floor in a moment, where the Split White Snake can watch over it twenty-four hours a day. ”
"Yes, Mr. Jack."
Noah nodded and said expectantly.
"I'm sure Anton will get better."
Chen Lun walked up to him with a smile and patted Noah on the shoulder.
"You and Maggie made it to Sequence 6 at the end of this campaign, and I haven't had time to celebrate you yet...... When Anton wakes up, we'll have another dinner. ”
Noah scratched his head in embarrassment, while Maggie wiped her saliva.
"Hey, hey! Captain, I want to eat Miss Floy's steak and beef salad! ”
"Absolutely."
Chen Lun and Floy smiled at each other, and then said to Maggie.
He looked at his companions present again, and was very relieved in his heart, and at the same time secretly sighed that the tempering of the Scarlet Battle in the past two months had indeed made the team members make considerable progress.
Floy, Golov and Noah Maggie have been promoted, and now Anton has successfully defeated the [Blasphemous Sword] and is waiting to wake up......
Everything is going in a good direction.
"There shouldn't be much time left until the version update, so when it's over, let's take them to the royal city...... When the time comes, it's time for me to get promoted. ’
Chen Lun thought to himself.
It seems that because of what happened to Anton just now, he was quite touched, and his mood was a little solemn.
'Howard, we'll meet soon...... New hatred and old hatred, I will settle accounts with you one by one! ’

Peacock City Silver Dragon Chamber of Commerce Branch.
At the moment, the hall and even the backyard were crowded with people.
They're all players who have heard the news.
"Haha, I thought that after the main quest was over, there would be no chance...... I really didn't expect it, Jack's benefits can still be enjoyed, is there Meizizi! ”
A male player said with a winkling eyebrow.
"Birds eat birds! Not only is there the basic model of the 'Kangji' flintlock rifle, but also three new skins in the 'Scarlet Twilight', 'Winter Killing Intent' and 'Great Victory'. Limited edition! I won't be able to buy it in the future! ”
"All three skins look good! But I like 'Scarlet Twilight' the most! The all-red appearance, the butt also has a pair of bat wing patterns, especially the details of the trigger, it is a pair of fangs, and it is really in place! ”
"I think 'Great Victory' is the most handsome, right? Every man aspires to own a gold rifle, not to mention that this limited edition is also inlaid with 'Pyroxene'! Didn't you listen to the staff of the Chamber of Commerce? It can be used as a melee to spark magic to push away melee enemies, which is so cool! ”
"It's the little ones who make the choice...... I want them all! ”
"Hey, hey, hey...... It's all to blame for a tyrant like you, just buy it, and take a screenshot to go to the forum Versailles, and now players in other Bangcheng areas are crying! ”
The players lined up, and you and I had a heated discussion.
In the open space in the backyard of the Chamber of Commerce, seven or eight employees are selling circus merchandise to players, from firearms to mechanical gloves, from various ammunition and bombs to potions.
Behind the employees stood many security guards, and even the Chamber of Commerce's Silver Dragon Escort was dispatched, guarding boxes of equipment and goods, staring at the undead strangers with wary expressions.
There were two thefts and a robbery this morning, and although the undead strangers involved in the case have been arrested and imprisoned in the "immortal prison" of the asylum, the Chamber of Commerce has raised its vigilance on this matter.
What Lord Jack has arranged, they must do their best to do it well!
Dongyang Chenxi and Polaris and other high-level toys squeezed out of the crowd, and everyone had a limited livery.
"Holy! That's too many, isn't it?! ”
Kotou Jin said exaggeratedly.
He raised the golden rifle in his hand and touched it lovingly.
"But after waiting in line for more than an hour, it's worth it! This skin is also limited in Wonderland, and those Dogecoin stuff didn't say a word, so they just grabbed it, so a few of us had to come here to buy it! ”
The group of people in the mouth of the dog head and gold are talking about the other elite players in the circus.
When they learned the news, the lake hut was already crowded, and when they looked at it again, the exchange panel that popped up with the statue of Jack was long gone.
At that time, Dongyang and the others were about to explode their lungs.
Fortunately, the Silver Dragon Chamber of Commerce has sales in branches all over the country, as long as you go in time, you can still grab a handful.
"Brothers, you've also been notified that the version is about to be updated, right?"
Dongyang put the three flintlock rifles behind his back, glanced at the players around him without showing off, and then asked Polaris and the others.
"Well, the main quest is over, and the next thing is the arrival of version 2.0."
Polaris nodded.
Dongyang chuckled and pointed to the bar they had been to before.
"Let's go have another drink, and by the way, what's next?"
"Okay."
The others had no opinion and nodded in agreement.
Dongyang took the lead, and a group of more than a dozen people walked to the bar on the side of the street.
The bartender at the front desk looked at the group of undead strangers, each carrying more than one flintlock pistol, and the wine glass in his hand almost fell to the ground in fright.
"Each ...... Ladies and gentlemen, what do you need? ”
The bartender asked tremblingly.
