248 Bloody collar
Because Biting Blood has always avoided using precognitive dreams on me, I sometimes have trouble remembering that she actually has such terrifying abilities.
Her opponents were Dawn and Fa Zheng, who were undoubtedly leader-level powerhouses even in the range of super-main warlocks. No matter which side she wants to challenge alone, the difficulty is no less than the challenge column, and the odds of winning are less than one percent. What's more, if you challenge two people at the same time, the difficulty will change qualitatively, and there will not even be one percent.
Under normal circumstances, she would not have been able to use precognitive dreams on these two people. Because she will only do what she may do in reality in the future. If she said that she would not take risks in reality, she would definitely not take risks in her dreams. Regardless of her motivation for taking on this challenge, since she was so determined, and even rehearsed it seven or eight thousand times, the odds would be very high. Even if her original odds of victory were only 1 in 1,000, she should be able to grasp the victory.
Could it be that the reason for her failure was because Dawn had the power of a true spirit? The reason why she never used the prophetic dream on me was also because my true spirit power was able to kill her in the prophetic dream. However, the sirens and I had speculated earlier that Dawn's true spirit power should not be able to be used in battle. Besides, if Dawn could do that, then Bite Blood wouldn't be able to have so many Prophetic Dreams at all, and I was afraid that I would be killed by Dawn with the power of the True Spirit in the first ten Prophetic Dreams.
Just in case, I asked, "Is it because Dawn used his true spirit power?" β
"No, based on Dawn's previous performances, I conclude that he has no way to use his true spirit power in battle. The combat power he showed to us in the Battle of Dawning Dream is basically all of his combat power. That's why I have the confidence to use prophetic dreams on him. Just in case, I tested this repeatedly in my prophetic dreams. There can be no mistake in this speculation. Biting Blood calmly analyzed, "The reason for my failure is still the weakness I mentioned before, that is, my prophetic dream can only predict the end of my failure. This means that all I can actually grasp is my own line of defeat, and the law of victory is not. β
"If I were to be asked to make one out of ten multiple-choice questions, then I could use the prophetic dream to eliminate the other nine wrong answers and arrive at the only correct answer. But the real world is endless, and I can't eliminate all the wrong answers on my own. She continued, "Every time I devise a new assassination plan and put it to the test in a prophetic dream, it is bound to fail in the dream. Thousands of prophetic dreams, I tried thousands of different combinations of spells and tactics to assassinate Dawn, and each time I was defeated for one reason or another before I could achieve my goal. β
"It's not just about fighting, it's about sneaking in, deceiving, conspiring...... The more I tried to test something in the prophetic dream, the more I would get stuck before the last step. If you just want to get a lot of information from the enemy camp by relying on the prophetic dream, you can do it multiple times, but you can't do that when it comes to taking off the enemy's head. She said with a little regret.
"In other words, although the route of defeat can be confirmed in dreams, the method of victory can only be tested in reality." I say.
"Yes. However, after thousands of prophetic dreams, I have accumulated a lot of experience in defeat and the rules of the enemy's moves, as the saying goes, "failure is the mother of success", and it is not difficult to derive the method of victory - I originally thought so, but I still failed. He was also severely injured by the flames of dawn, and could only temporarily lurk inside the fog first. She said, "Although I have also thought about whether to evacuate to the outside world first, at least to extend the automatic sending time of the letter for some time, but I can't leave this fog with ordinary movement methods, and I was too injured to use the space transfer spell to go to the outside world before I recovered." It wasn't until not long ago that I finally fully recovered, and I sensed your spiritual fluctuations coming from afar, so I hurried over. β
"Is the combination of Dawn and Fazheng actually so strong?" I was taken aback at first, and then I felt like I had missed the point, "No, it's not so strange that you're walking a tightrope to fight them, and if you make the slightest mistake, you'll be crushed...... Or, if you fail, you can still escape? β
She replied succinctly: "I prepared the way back. However, it was true that at that time, it was a life and a death sentence. β
"After all, why do you have to assassinate Dawn?" I asked, "I know he's been attacking you from a distance with flames like a curse, but if it's just to solve this problem, you don't have to assassinate him." β
I added, "Besides, didn't you say that Dawn would blow itself up?" Even if you do kill him, once he blows himself up, you will be swept up in the explosion and die with no place to bury. β
"Naturally, I was prepared for this. I had a way to get out of his self-detonation. As for the most important reason for my assassination......" she said, her voice getting lower and lower, and at last she just stared at me without saying a word.
I asked, "Could it be that you want to say it is for me?" Like the letter says, just so that I can praise you? β
"Can't I say that?" She said quietly, "Why don't you just want to hug me?" As long as you're willing to hug me again, I'll do anything for you. I will give all my wisdom and strength, risk my life, and become your own blade. As long as you're willing to nod your head......"
"And then you're going to slit my throat with that sharp blade, won't you?" As soon as I said this, she fell silent.
"You won't have forgotten, I have all your memories." I said, "I can see your past, your thoughts, your nature, and the emotions you had in your way to kill your own mother. Even if it's something you don't think about unconsciously, I know it all right. Even if you can deceive others and yourself, you will never be able to deceive me. β
"You mean, my real desire is not to be embraced by you, but to wait until you hug me and then turn my head and bite your throat...... Is that so? She asked slowly.
"You're not trying to deny it, are you?" I asked.
"No, I don't deny it." Unexpectedly, she shook her head, "Your suspicions are correct. β
"What?" Instead, I was caught off guard.
"After you rejected me in the capital, I spent a long time thinking about the reasons why you didn't want to accept me. As you said, I unconsciously avoided thinking about what would happen after you hugged me, and I just forgot what I was going to do to be embraced by you. And you are keenly aware of this contradiction, which is why you are so indifferent to me. "And, though I said I would change my ways for you, if you die, I will be evil again." No, even now, I can't really change my mind, just to get your hug. So instead of being deceived and killed by me, it is better to draw a line with me from the beginning, and it is better to use my good feelings for you to set a trap and take advantage of the opportunity to trap me and kill me...... You must be thinking so. β
I felt as if I had been stripped naked and touched by her, and I couldn't help but wonder if she was using mind reading or memory reading, otherwise how could she see so clearly? But I think she must not have and does not need to play those little tricks.
The human heart is the field she is most proficient in, and seeing through the minds of others is simply a back-to-back look for her. This is the normal play of the half-blood demon biting blood.
So I simply admitted, "Yes." β
"Actually, I don't know if I'm going to actually kill you after you hug me...... But based on my past experience, I'm 80% sure I'd do that. And the reason why I can't think of killing you now is probably because I instinctively know that only by truly falling in love with you, getting happiness from you, and then crushing it to pieces, can I get the pleasure of being intoxicated and disillusioned. She dissected her own psychology as if she were dissecting others, "And you are also a person who is extremely sensitive to malice, if I harbor the slightest malice towards you, I am destined to not be able to get your sincerity." I must have instinctively grasped this. β
"Now that you've come to this point, don't tell me anything whimsical about that in the future." I say.
"No, no matter what I'm going to do in the end, at least I'm sincere with you now." She shook her head at first, then reached into her arms, "So ......"
As she spoke, she made up her mind, took out a black iron ring from her bosom, and then held it in both hands and handed it to me.
"Please take this." She said.
The hoop is shaped like a bolt cap, and it seems to fit just enough on your wrist, and you can't tell what it's used for. I was naturally wary of the unknown, and was about to ask about the details of the ring, when I heard a shocked voice from the siren in my head, "Huh? β
"What is this, is it dangerous?" I realized that the sirens seemed to know the bottom of the ring.
She hesitated and replied, "It's not dangerous, it's dangerous for her......"
Since even she said so, I naturally believed it completely, and stretched out my hand to the hoop while waiting for the next explanation. And the moment I touched the ring, I had a wonderful visionβI saw an illusory iron chain on the ring extending forward, all the way to the neck of the biting blood, and there was another iron ring of the same shape and larger size, which hung coldly on it like an iron collar.
The sudden hallucinations caused me to reflexively withdraw my hand. No, it's not just an illusion. The iron collar on the neck of the biting blood is real, but the power of the spell is temporarily hidden, and I'm afraid that the only ones who can see this are the biting blood myself and me who came into contact with the iron ring.
The illusory iron chains mostly represent the spiritual power connection between the iron ring and the iron collar.
"It's a curse on me." "In the future, whenever I have the idea of attacking or framing you, this collar will automatically inflict intense pain on me that even I can't bear, and I will lose all the ability to act. Even if I tried to kill you one moment, the next I would immediately fall to the ground, unable to even think normally. And if the pain lasts more than a few seconds, it's enough to make my soul go away. β
"At the same time, the spell of the collar can also be triggered by you. You just need to pour your spiritual power into this iron ring, and you can forcibly inflict the above pain on me. It's a curse effect that ignores the distance of time and space, and can be used against me even if you're on the other side of the planet. In addition, although there is a way to break the spell, if I have a thought in my mind to try to break it, it will also automatically trigger the pain I described earlier. Therefore, it is impossible for me to unravel it on my own initiative...... "as long as you have this thing, you don't have to worry about me betraying you." β
"You ......" I couldn't have expected her to come out of nowhere.
At the same time, I mentally asked the siren, "Is everything she said true?" β
"It's true." The siren replied, "There is information corresponding to this item in the memory of the bitten blood, which is exactly what she described herself. Also, when you touched the hoop, I also analyzed the spiritual fluctuation composition of the hoop. This is the real thing. β
"How is it possible......" I quickly analyzed the rationality of biting blood while I was in a state of confusion.
Although biting blood had bypassed my sense of malice in battle, I knew from her memory that it was actually a move that packaged malice into other emotions, even if it could deceive the opponent, it could not deceive itself, and it was not suitable for the restraint of deception and curses.
And, to put it closer, I still need to join forces with her to deal with Dawn and Fazheng in the future, and having this thing means that I have no worries; And in the distance, because I can actively trigger the curse of the iron collar, I can kill her at any time, and even if she uses her proud space to transfer and escape, she will never escape from the palm of my hand.
This is a veritable surrender of my life and freedom into my hands.
Biting the blood with both hands, he held the iron ring in his hand and said nervously: "Even if you can't accept me immediately, it doesn't matter, at least, take this first......
After much hesitation, I still couldn't find a reason not to accept it, so I slowly reached out and took the ring into my hand.
She exuded a look of joy that she couldn't hide.
