Chapter 125: Become Her Knife
The chapel was silent, the light and shadow of the candles were beating, Xiao Zhimiao sat in the first row, looking at the stone statue in front of him for a long time.
Sunlight shone through the roof of the church and onto the stone statue of Secia, making her look like a holy statue of a saint.
Xiao Zhimiao spread out her palm, and a small pale red ball was suspended in her palm, which was the memory that had just been extracted from the believers, a fragment of her past memories.
Although she remembered a small part, as long as she refused to accept this memory, she was still Xiao Zhimiao, and the ultimate purpose of her entering this game was to resurrect her brother Xiao Yun.
Now a voice in her heart told her that if she accepted this memory, then she would have to take on more things.
But judging from these believers in the Thorn Guild, there is also the backtracking magic array of Doll Town, even if she is dead in the past, she is still planning and using everything that can be used.
It's not just others, she even plans herself.
Did she ever regret it?
Apparently in the river of blood in Doll Town, Cecia says that memories of the past don't matter.
When death came, she was relieved.
She's been planning for so long, there must be something she has to do.
Or, an unfulfilled wish.
Thinking of the appearance of Secia dying in her arms, she really ...... Liberated?
Xiao Zhimiao looked at the memory fragment in front of her, clenched her hand tightly and slowly let go.
What should come is always hidden.
But now, she doesn't want to receive these memories, she doesn't want to find nothing to do, and she doesn't want to find herself unhappy.
Without these memories, she also vaguely understood in her heart what she wanted to do in the past when she was still Sescia.
If memories from the past affect her, then she doesn't need them for now, and when she has to, she will recover them.
Mu Yuan stood behind Xiao Zhimiao and looked at her silently, for a long time, he watched her put away the memory ball that glowed red, and turned to look at him.
Even though she doesn't have any memories of when she was the evil god Sessia, her demeanor is the same as the first time he saw her.
In the monster-filled dungeon, when he was about to die, she appeared in front of him and guided him through the level safely.
He asked, "Why do you want to help me?"
Her translucent body leaned against the stone wall and smiled nonchalantly, "It's not to help you, it's to make a deal with you."
He looked at her blindfolded face, her crimson lips slightly raised, and in this filthy and terrible place, the wind lifted her long crimson hair and long broken black dress, like a demon from the abyss, bewitching humans to lure them into the abyss together.
"What is the price of the devil's deal?"
After he finished speaking, the people in front of him chuckled, "It's not a devil, it's a god."
Mu Yuan sneered, "The gods save the world, but you have to make a deal with me."
"Because the world doesn't believe in the gods who can really help them, I can only make a deal with you."
Her fingers slid across Mu Yuan's face, "Of course, it's also because I lack faith and divine power now, and I'm not a real god, I'm just a fallen evil god."
"It's very easy to deceive people, especially those of you who have no way out and are eager for others to reach out and pull a hand, and if the gods tell a small lie, you will be like grasping a life-saving straw."
"Don't believe in the gods, everything has a price, but with me, you can trade anything you want fairly."
Mu Yuan came back to his senses and remembered the past, Secia was indeed very fair, not only fair, what he did for him had exceeded what he had paid.
Even though he always emphasized justice, saying that it was in exchange for his price.
But so what, only He really did it, pulled him out of the abyss, and helped him cut off the unbearable past.
Then the rest should be for him to pay for her.
That's fair trade.
"How many members of the Thorns Guild are there now?"
Xiao Zhimiao stood in front of the sea of roses and turned her head to ask Mu Yuan.
Mu Yuan said, "There are currently seventy-eight member players."
Xiao Zhimiao took out Achill's sub-god-level weapon [Bone Crush], and Mu Yuan was stunned when he saw the black chain knife: "This is Aqir's weapon."
"It's hers, she dedicated her life to me, leaving only this weapon."
Mu Yuan looked at Xiao Zhimiao's indifferent expression and said, "Achill has completed her mission."
Xiao Zhimiao: "It's not enough, she's so good, and there's value in using it."
After that, Xiao Zhimiao looked at Mu Yuan: "I want you to find the [Streamer] to upgrade the sub-god-level weapon and some other materials for repairing the high-level props."
Now, the members of the Thorns Guild are all her followers, and she will provide them with the blessing of faith in this world, and it is still a transaction for them to do things for her.
Mu Yuan didn't hesitate and said, "Yes, Divine Lord."
Xiao Zhimiao grabbed Mu Yuan's hand and asked him for a dagger, which he carved on his wrist.
His skin was cut by the dagger, and blood dripped down his wrist onto the rose, Mu Yuan didn't frown, and he didn't ask Xiao Zhimiao what he wanted to do.
Xiao Zhimiao's movements did not stop at all, and after a while, a rose pattern was formed, she drew a rose pattern with crimson magic in the air, and this rose pattern coincided with the one on Mu Yuan's hand, her hand stroked from Mu Yuan's hand, and the rose pattern gradually disappeared, and his wrist was intact.
"This is used to summon me, you can summon it directly without praying, and I can also know your status in real time, you are now a very important knife for me, try to live a little longer."
After that, Xiao Zhimiao looked at Mu Yuan, who was speechless, and smiled slightly, "Don't you ask me what I do with your knife?"
Mu Yuan said in a low and powerful voice, "Since I am your sword, then you can control it."
Xiao Zhimiao: "Also, the knife will not ask his master what he wants to do with it, whether it is to kill people or kill chickens."
Mu Yuan lowered his head: "You're right, it's my honor to be your sword."
Xiao Zhimiao tugged at the corners of her mouth and walked outside.
As soon as Xiao Zhimiao came out of Rose Town, he saw Xu Zhilan sitting on a big rock, flicking his whip for a while, and he looked a little angry.
Seeing her, Xu Zhilan said sullenly, "Coming out? I think you've forgotten me."
Qiansi wrapped around Xiao Zhimiao, and Xiao Zhimiao grabbed Qiansi and threw it back.
Qiansi felt that Xiao Zhimiao didn't want to stick to it, and her erected body immediately drooped.
Looking at Xu Zhilan's calm face, Xiao Zhimiao thought of the part of his awakened memory of seeing Xu Zhilan who traded with her, as well as the price of his transaction with her.
Xiao Zhimiao walked up to him, grabbed his hand and held it in his hand.
His hands were cold without a trace of warmth, and he had such a low body temperature because he traded half of his life to her, and this was his price.
And she kept him from dying, and also gave him a sub-god-level skill and a sub-god-level weapon [Thousand Threads] that could be automatically recovered.
He didn't believe in her, so she blurred his memory.
Before, he only wanted to trade with her, but now he even paid her for the soul.
Xiao Zhimiao was thinking, if one day Xu Zhilan recovered that memory, how would he react?
"What, now you know you're coming to coax me?"
Xu Zhilan watched Xiao Zhimiao take the initiative to shake his hand, and the depression in his heart was suddenly swept away, and his mood gradually improved.
He took the opportunity to touch two of Xiao Zhimiao's small hands, and Xiao Zhimiao slapped his hands away vigorously: "Let's go, I'm going to buy some props and fill up my backpack."
"You finally know what to buy."
Xu Zhilan took Xiao Zhimiao to teleport from the public teleportation magic array in the Croya Valley to Dark Star City.
Watching Xiao Zhimiao take out the [Faceless] and put it on his face, Xu Zhilan said, "Can you change your face, don't use Mu Yuan's, I'll look at it."
Xiao Zhimiao glanced at Xu Zhilan: "You have a lot of, okay."
Then she used the face of the Shaking Star, but the tail was missing, and the pupil color and hair color were changed to black, making her look like a normal player.
Xu Zhilan looked at Xiao Zhimiao's face that had turned into her house elf, and gritted her teeth a little and said, "Xiaozhi, did you do it on purpose?"
Xiao Zhimiao: "Yes, I can change whatever I want, I don't care if you like it or not."
Xu Zhilan took a deep breath, forget it, he was the only one who was angry with her.
Teleported to Dark Star City, Xu Zhilan took Xiao Zhimiao to several shops selling props and materials.
These items are purchased with gold, because the player and the locals of the Divine Presence spend the same, except for the outrageous price of the house, the others are not treated differently, except for some special item materials, the others are not expensive.
A potion that restores health to ten points is only one hundred gold coins.
Of course, only players will see the +10 health shown on this potion bottle, and the full name of this potion is [Low Health Regeneration Potion]
The Advanced Health Regeneration Potion can restore up to 60 mana points at a time, and the price is 1,000 gold.
Because most dungeons have a restriction on carrying props, players who enter the dungeon will choose to buy high-level recovery potions, and go to the wild to farm monsters without carrying restrictions will buy low-level recovery potions.
If you have enough money, you can store a little more, and there is no storage limit for backpacks anyway.
Xiao Zhimiao looked at a few shops, the potions and props sold were relatively common, nothing special, but still a little useful, Xiao Zhimiao bought some that he thought was useful, such as some small props for lighting and guiding the way, and some props that could be attacked.
After buying these, Xiao Zhimiao went to the bookstore in Dark Star City again, which would sell some magic books, but it was not much use for players to buy these, these magic skills were not as good as the skills of their own profession.
Xiao Zhimiao bought a copy of the General Magic Encyclopedia and a Dark Magic Book.
Books on dark arts are *** in other parts of the Divine Lands, but they can be sold normally in Dark Star City, as most of them are players, and some of the skills of necromancers and witches are dark magic.
"You still need to buy this kind of book for your skills?" Xu Zhilan looked at the two books that Xiao Zhimiao bought in confusion.
It's useless for ordinary players to see these magics, it's okay to play as a pastime, their skills are fixed, and some of the magic in them is actually their professional skills, and some other magic players can't understand it.
In Xu Zhilan's opinion, Xiao Zhimiao is an evil god witch, which skill is not stronger than in these two books.
"Nonsense, of course you bought it to see."
Xiao Zhimiao put the two books into the system backpack and changed to another location to sweep the goods.
Xiao Zhimiao spent 200,000 gold coins to buy a lot of props, and spent 300,000 gold coins to buy all kinds of messy materials, and after sweeping a few shops, she and Xu Zhilan went to the square again to see if there were any good things in the hands of other players.
There are more good things in the player's hands than in the store, and those are brought out of the dungeon, or they are organized to farm.
Xiao Zhimiao looked at the players who sold the items, and an interface would be displayed in front of them, with the things they wanted to sell.
After looking around, Xiao Zhimiao didn't see what she wanted, so she only picked and bought a few materials.
The things in the player's hands are much more expensive than those in the store, and just a few of them cost her hundreds of thousands of gold coins.
"What are you looking for?"
Xu Zhilan could feel that Xiao Zhimiao hadn't bought what she wanted, and her eyes had been scanning the square.
Xiao Zhimiao asked, "There are no players selling materials to upgrade sub-god-level items?"
She also thought that if she could buy it from the player, she wouldn't have to run away with Mu Yuan.
Xu Zhilan said: "You think this material is cabbage, you can buy it if you want to, you have to go to the dungeon and the field to farm monsters, and this material is not sold to players, even if it is sold, it is the price of tens of millions of gold coins."
After that, Xu Zhilan looked at Xiao Zhimiao and said, "You want to make a sub-god-level prop?"
Xiao Zhimiao: "I have this idea."
Since there was nothing left to buy, Xiao Zhimiao was about to go back, and suddenly, she saw several people wearing white cloaks in her sight, and on the back of the cloak, there was a circular snake pattern.
Xiao Zhimiao's expression was awe-inspiring, this white cloak and ring snake pattern were exactly the same as the mysterious person she met on the way to join the Shenwu Bureau, and the mysterious person shot the monster "Rift Girl" who attacked her to death, preventing the monster from continuing to communicate with her.
Xiao Zhimiao's tone was slightly deep, and she asked Xu Zhilan, "Who are they?"
She hadn't had time to look up the mysterious man before, but she also knew about some of the higher guilds in the Land of God's Presence, and their logos were not from any of the guilds she was familiar with.
Xu Zhilan followed Xiao Zhimiao's line of sight, "You said the ones who wore white cloaks? They are in the Sanhedrin of God."
"The Guild of the Gods? How's the ability?"
Xu Zhilan said: "They are not players, they are natives of the land of God's presence, and they are one of the few indigenous guilds, but they are the strongest, because they are not players and are not on the leaderboard, if they want to rank, they can at least enter the top five on the leaderboard."
"Fengshen Guild ......"
Xiao Zhimiao watched them disappear into the teleportation array before retracting her gaze, she was not in a hurry to find out what connection they had with her brother Xiao Yun now, why they were secretly following her, now she already knew that they were an organization in the Land of God's Presence, and she would wait until she raised her level and made her weapon.
Before Xiao Zhimiao returned to her residence, she broke Xu Zhilan away, teleported to the field map, and summoned Adisan over.
