Chapter 176: The Price of Strength
Murphy didn't refuse this at all, he was looking for Sargeras, and since Sargeras hadn't appeared yet, it would be good to wait.
But what does 'at this time' mean?
He looked at Medivan, and the other party no longer had the despair he had before, but with a relieved expression.
Medivan poured two glasses of wine, holding one for himself and the other for Murphy.
Mo Fei took a sip, and the mellow taste of wine made Mo Fei's eyes light up.
"Good wine."
"Of course it's a good wine, it's the wine my mother kept when she built this magic tower, and it's been aged for hundreds of years to have the most perfect flavor."
He looked at the red wine in the glass, and there was a hint of sadness on his face. β
"My mother used to tell me stories of the past, and sometimes I really miss being a child, before I even started learning magic, my mother was always gentle with me, without these responsibilities, without threats in the dark, without the pressure of guardians, and without the whispers of demons.
I was happy then, not like I am now......"
Madison chattered about his past.
Murphy listened attentively, he was also very interested in the secrets of this game, but he didn't expect the background design of this character to be quite meticulous.
After talking about his mother's past for a while, he talked about some childhood anecdotes with King Lane and the Duke of Lothar, going to the Valley of Thorns to fight trolls, drinking together in Treasure Bay, and going to the village rally in Alwyn's Forest.
One by one, Medivin seems to be reminiscing about his whole life.
Mo Fei listened and listened, and gradually some taste came out, how did this person sound as if he was explaining what was going on.
After chatting for hours, seeing that it was getting dark, Medivan drank the last bit of wine and took another bottle casually.
"Thank you for listening to me, it's a pleasure to have someone to hear me at a time like this."
"Why, you saved me and helped me get rid of the corrosion of the ancient gods, this is the least I can do."
Medivan shook his head solemnly, "No, I didn't help you get rid of the corrosion of the abyss, I just suppressed it temporarily, the power of the abyss, unless it is completely cut off from the source, it ......"
"I used to follow my mother against all kinds of monsters, any enemy that would threaten humanity, demons, xenotravelers from the astral plane, elemental lords from the elemental plane, powerful undead from the shadow realm......
But the monsters in the abyss are undoubtedly the most headache, they cannot be destroyed, they can only be expelled, or sealed, and anyone who is contaminated with the abyss will eventually be corrupted.
I had always thought that if one day I would die, it must be because of the abyss, but I didn't expect it...... Hehe. β
Mo Fei couldn't help but get a little nervous when he heard this.
"Why is this thing haunting me? Just because my perceptual attributes are high? But I don't have a strong sense of perception. β
He didn't add any perception at all, only the initial 10 points.
Medivan shook his head, "Perception can be enhanced through rituals or mysterious objects, and a special magical creature has a particularly strong sense of perception of certain special planes or worlds.
There is a huge amount of power sealed in your body, a powerful creature, although I don't know what that power is, but it is undoubtedly connected to the abyss in some way, and that power attracts the gaze from the abyss and transmits it to you. β
This Medivan knows a lot, "What happens if I get corrupted? β
"The power of the abyss will erode your soul, corrupt your spirit, transform your flesh and blood, and you will become a slave to the abyss, a deranged monster, and at best, a depraved creature that retains a certain sense of self but is extremely evil."
"Sounds scary, but how do you get rid of it?"
"It's very simple, give up the power of the seal in your body, when you stare into the abyss, the abyss will also stare at you, as long as you can't feel the abyss, the abyss can't sense you, that's it."
It sounds pretty simple, just ask Wang Xuan to take the Deathwing away.
But Mo Fei couldn't help but be a little entangled, did he really want to give up the power of Deathwing? I haven't had time to cool off yet, and my role hasn't been finished yet.
The most important thing is that if you eat enough dragon hearts, maybe one day you can use this power casually, and then you won't be able to kill whoever you want.
Medivan asked, "Why, is this force so fascinating to you?" β
Murphy asked rhetorically, "Then why don't you give up that power in you?" β
"It's useless, the demon in my body is already entangled with my soul, even if I give up the power of the guardian, it won't leave, and I can feel that it is already too powerful, once it is re-attributed, it is very likely to completely occupy my body.
Is the soul entangled? Mo Fei's heart moved, but in fact, it was not impossible.
He had checked Deathwing's skill system before, and there was indeed a magic called Soul Splitting in the Dragon Magic, but due to the fact that Nessario's soul was sealed, this magic was in a gray state.
It's a pity that you have to die in the script, otherwise it doesn't hurt to help you.
He said in his heart that this matter could not be delayed.
directly sent a private message to Wang Xuan.
Aidan: No, Wang Xuan, I'm in trouble.
Wang Xuan: What's the trouble?
Aidan: I've been corrupted by the abyss.
Wang Xuan: Do you mean the whispers of the ancient gods? What are you afraid of, Deathwing can carry it until the cataclysm before going crazy, why can't you?
Aidan: I've seen visions, tentacles and eyeballs, it's scary, and if I'm really corrupted, I'm not going to have an accident, right?
Wang Xuan: What can happen?
Aidan: Like becoming a madman in reality or something.
Wang Xuan: Hahaha, can you really think, this is a game, how can that kind of situation happen, at most, your template changes from a hero to a boss, or a change of camp, from an alliance of humans to an ancient god faction.
Don't worry, even if it's the worst result, you're really corrupted by the ancient gods, and at most it's a boss, although the monsters of the ancient god faction are particularly ugly, but the combat effectiveness is strong.
Haven't you heard that sentence, blackening is three times stronger, whitewashing is three points weaker, the ancient gods are black in black, and the stronger one is nine times, speaking of which, you still earn it.
Damn, this Wang Xuan really dares to say that he has made a lot of money.
Aidan: Are you sure it's okay? I always felt horrible when I was corrupted, as if I was not in my right mind.
Wang Xuan: That's the effect of the game, just like crazy magic, confusion, mind control and other skills, you must feel something, if you don't feel it, it's not very interesting, after all, this is a holographic virtual game, it definitely feels different from computer games, you can rest assured, this kind of experience is not experienced by ordinary people.
turned off the communication, but Mo Fei was not relieved in his heart.
The main Wang Xuan has given him a little unreliable recently, and he can only believe six or seven points when he says it.
And the feeling of falling into madness before really made him feel a little scared, and then thinking of Wang Xuan's attitude towards Acanagos, Mo Fei felt that he still had to find a way to solve this matter.
"Why, you seem to have suddenly relaxed, have you already decided to give up that power?"
Aidan (the embodiment of Deathwing): "No, this force is so powerful that I will never give up, is there any other way to fight this corruption?" β
"Of course, the higher your perceptual ability, the easier it is to perceive the attention that exists outside of this world, but if your mental power is strong enough, you can resist this erosion."
This is not surprising, if the mental attribute is high, it can indeed increase the resistance to psychic magic and the probability of immunity.
But the problem is that he is a force sensitive, and he has not added any spirit at all.
If you add it now, you will definitely not be in a hurry.
Now it's all supported by this helmet on the head.
γCrown of Fools (Epic/Helmet)
Equip: Grants you 20 Spirit Stats and decreases your Perception Stats by 20.
Item description: A tiara forged from black iron, said to be a helmet made for ignorant usurpers, blind self-confidence can improve mental strength, but it also loses the ability to perceive the emotions of the people around it, and often falls into the illusion of arrogance, this is the crown of fools. γ
This equipment is definitely the best equipment for priests and priests who take the Xinyang route.
The perception attribute is a relatively unpopular attribute, that is, professions such as shamans and witch doctors are more useful, and assassins can be used in civil wars.
It's +20 and -20, but it's definitely huge.
At this time, Mo Fei suddenly felt a darkness around him, and the shadowy thing appeared again.
He looked up and saw that it was the duration of the Weakening Technique again.
The effect of this magic only lasts for 10 minutes, and it can reduce perception by 25, and once it fails, it cannot be completely blocked by the Crown of Fools alone.
Now the question is what to do once you get out of here.
Medivan didn't hesitate, rummaging through his magic pocket for a while, taking out a +5 spirit faith ring, a necklace with +10% psychic resistance, and a few magic scrolls of confusion, and stuffed them into Murphy.
Mo Fei was a little surprised, he could explain it by sending a piece of equipment before, and he sent so much, which was too ......
"That's so embarrassing." As he spoke, he took all the equipment and put on the necklace and ring, feeling a lot better.
It's a lot of money.
Medivin shook his head: "We are friends, shouldn't friends help each other, besides, I won't need these things soon, so I might as well leave them to you." β
"What do you mean you don't need it?"
Medivan's eyes were unusually determined, "I have decided, I must die, only then will the Demon King not be able to use my body to do evil." β
What! Murphy was taken aback, he was a little incredulous, he didn't expect Medivan to have such a plan.
