The genesis cards all have a certain negative effect, and Martin is very aware of that.

Just like the [Alchemy Dog] will make people have a strong appetite, the "Gentle and Friendly Box" made of the Crimson Bride will produce an unspeakable thirst for blood when used, and the [Twin Flames] will bring irrepressible madness.

These are Martin's personal experiences with genesis cards, and as the deck moves up, the corresponding negative effects become larger and more difficult to control.

From this point of view, the effect of the fifth-order "Libra" is not very reasonable.

"Hey, hey, hey, hey......"

Martin was still thinking about the negative effect of the [Black Crow's Gift], and Henry, whose face was half covered in blood, suddenly laughed.

He clenched his left hand again, causing the blood that was already about to clot to flow back down, and the dark red marks on the carpet gradually expanded.

"What, is there nothing to say?"

Henry's blonde hair was scattered, and the whole person was already very depressed, and a different kind of aura permeated the air.

Martin realized that something was wrong, not a negative effect, but Henry in front of him.

From the moment the huge vine was burned by the [Lava Kiss], his whole body became a little nervous, and Martin began to think that it was a huge blow and began to give up on himself, but this behavior was really deliberate.

He even slit open his palm just to show off the "dirty blood", where it seems that the traces of the performance are too heavy.

"That's you, father. Forever indifferent, always looking around with superior eyes, not explaining anything. ”

"It's a little strange that you're today, but it doesn't matter anymore."

Henry's eyeballs were bloodshot, and he looked at his injured left hand as if he were looking at a work of art.

"Time is enough."

Henry smiled and turned his head to look at Martin in the high-backed chair, the corners of his mouth curled to the maximum.

As he spoke, several small marks began to bulge under the carpet in the room, and some unknown creature was crawling and swimming rapidly.

Then, several tiny vines tore through the carpet and burrowed out of the ground, like tentacles, and began to absorb Henry's blood from the carpet, absorbing it in the blink of an eye.

The originally small branches began to grow thick as they absorbed the blood, and a nodulous bulge began to grow on their tops, and then a faint green glow shimmered in them, like an eye.

Like the vine just now, it began to surround Henry, like an obedient pet.

Henry stretched out his left hand, and a vine quickly came up and began to "lick" the remaining blood in his palm.

"I forgot to tell you, father."

A sneer tugged at the corner of Henry's mouth, and he said as he played with the rattan in his palm.

"These vines are all raised by me with blood, you see, the nourishment of blood makes them stronger and more attractive."

"Now I want to know, you can burn one vine, but can you burn all the vines in this room at the same time?"

Countless stout vines pierced the walls and tore through the carpet, like steel needles piercing Martin's place.

No one expected this scene, and Martin didn't even react.

Eddie was too far away from Salomon at the doorway to get over, and Martin had to face the vines that pierced from the ground, from the walls, and from the ceiling.

And his [Lava Kiss] has been used up, and he can no longer destroy the vines without leaving a trace.

Even if there were, in the face of attacks from all sides, he would lose sight of one or the other.

The aura of danger around him stung Martin's skin like countless rays of wheat, and Martin's first instinct was to ignite the twin flames, but this flame, like the [Lava Kiss], could not face so many attacks.

The vines had already come to Martin's approach, and just as Martin decided to use the physical bonus brought by the [Virgin's Body] to dodge them, they all stopped.

Not only did the ground come out, but the walls extended and the ceiling fell, and all the vines froze in place for a moment.

"Huh?"

Henry's eyes jumped at the sight, and he stared at the still vines, and then sprinkled the fresh blood from the wound on his left hand.

Drops of blood were sprinkled in front of Martin's eyes, and some were splashed onto the vines that were still and tentatively in place.

The moment the blood was splashed on the vines, the vines seemed to be fed with the strongest stimulant potion, and began to churn and twist to express their joy.

But they also didn't cross the eerie vacuum around Martin, it was like there was a transparent cover around Martin, and they could only wander around and not approach.

"How could it be ......"

Henry's emotions were mobilized.

He deliberately attracted the [Vine of Desire] outside the house and raised them with blood to ensure that they obeyed his orders, and everything went very smoothly, neither the shepherd at the door nor the father sitting in the high-backed chair suspected anything.

He had wondered why the whole villa was covered with vines and branches, and in the room where his father was, the vines seemed to be afraid to enter.

But the moment he felt the vines slowly burrow into the carpet beneath his feet, he knew that his previous worries were unnecessary, and as long as the vines could grow into the room, this was his home field.

After all, when "those people" gave him the most primitive [Vine of Desire], they explained that as long as they were raised with their own blood, the ability of these vines was at least comparable to that of a mercenary team.

But now, everything was going according to his vision, but suddenly something changed at the last step, and even if he used his own blood to provoke it, it had no effect at all.

Martin, on his side, looked at the dim light vines around him who didn't dare to take a step beyond the thunder pool, and felt a stream of heat jumping in his shirt pocket.

He reached out.

It's the rose card.

[Mother Goddess Corpse Piece 01 - Forbidden Conception].

The card was slowly vibrating at this point, and the temperature was rising sharply.

After the card was drawn, the vines that were writhing in mid-air began to retreat sharply, retracting back to Henry's side, as if stimulated by something.

"It's the effect of this card..."

Martin looked at the reverse card in his hand, it seemed to have a strong restraint effect on the [Vine of Desire], like a natural enemy.

Seeing that the situation was wrong, Henry instantly gave up attacking Martin, but turned around and manipulated the vines to rush towards Eddie and Salomon at the door.

At this moment, the sound of a harmonica sounded.

Salomon held a black harmonica in both hands, and a quiet and serene voice wafted out of his mouth.

The sound was like the cry of a night owl, reminding one of a tranquil garden and the faint flow of moonlight.

This is the effect of the Libra deck's Diamond 3: Requiem, a quiet and peaceful tune that can quickly make people fall into a deep sleep.

I saw that Henry's steps forward became heavier and heavier, his body began to shake, and his eyelids wanted to close uncontrollably.

He had realized that something was wrong, but the growing drowsiness prevented him from thinking about how to deal with it, and his mind gradually slowed, and finally with a single obsession, he attacked the vines beside him towards Salomon.

But before the vines could reach Salomon's side, they began to twist unnaturally, as if they had lost their purpose, and finally lost their support and fell to the ground, and began to grow and spread naturally by instinct, but at a very slow speed.

Henry had already fallen to the ground, his body shrunk into a ball, and a steady breathing was heard.

The long harmonica stopped, and Salomon sighed softly as he looked at Henry who had fallen in front of him and the twisted vines beside him.

[Requiem] itself is a powerful offensive card in the 'Libra' third-order deck, and its ability can actually be called strong, but the reason why Salomon didn't use it before is that people who fall asleep after hearing Requiem have a certain chance of dying in their sleep.

After all, "Libra" is different from the "Water Mirror" that creates [Void Phase] and dreams, it involves the heavy realm of death, even if it is the lowest rank of the third-order card.

Salomon still remembers the comment on the card when he was holding the diamond three:

"You say, when death comes, will he knock on the door?"

Growing up in a monastery, Salomon had always been taught that "death makes new life", so death was sacred to him, and he could not accept suicidal acts, and he felt an instinctive aversion to killing, which took the life of others.

Therefore, he rarely plays requiems, and the few times he uses them are basically out of necessity.

Fortunately, so far, no one who has heard his requiem has died directly.

"You have such a powerful skill, why didn't you use it earlier."

Eddie begins complaining to Salomon after confirming that Henry is not aggressive.

Salomon ignored her as usual, and he walked over to Martin to discuss with him what to do with the knight.

There are too many accidents they encounter in this mission, and even involve the resurgence of the evil organization [Rose Cross], Martin as the commissioner, he as the helper invited by Shirley, they must discuss a plan.

As for the "crazy woman" Eddie, she disguised herself to participate even though she knew that the terms of the commission required that women were prohibited from participating, and if it wasn't for the accident of the mission, I am afraid she would have been expelled from the club.

Whether or not to explain Eddie's situation to the club is a headache for Martin.

And just as he walked straight to Martin, Henry, who had fallen into a deep sleep on the ground, suddenly began to tremble.

His serene expression began to turn hideous, as if he was going through the worst nightmare, his muscles began to tense, the muscles around his neck bulged, and his blond hair was covered with sweat.

Salomon had already walked through him so he didn't know about the changes, but Eddie, who wasn't far away, had noticed the clues.

She walked over and crouched down beside Henry.

After just a few breaths, his body relaxed again, his expression returned to his normal state, and there was even a hint of a smile on the corner of his mouth.

The next moment, his eyes snapped open.

Add was startled, and she saw a pair of cloudy, cold-blooded eyes, like a hungry wolf suddenly staring at her.

And these cloudy eyes became clear again the next second they opened, as if they had gone back from old age to young adulthood.

"Salomon, he's awake ......"

Add tried to ask Salomon about it, but was interrupted in the middle of her sentence, and she couldn't make a sound.

Because her mouth, her jaw, were clamped by a hand as strong as an eagle's claw.

A grim smile appeared on the corner of Henry's mouth, and the whole person was completely no longer the shocked and hesitant look just now, he grabbed Eddie's mandible, and slowly stood up with her head in his hands.
