"Hiss......"

Lamor gasped slightly, subconsciously taking a step back.

He couldn't understand what Mullen was doing, or why this guy was talking and talking to someone in a [dead] state.

He just thought the atmosphere was too weird and scary, like a scene from a horror movie he'd ever seen.

Name implies.

A player in the [Dead] state is a player who has been judged by the system to be dead.

Their H has been zeroed out and there is no way to do anything.

This includes moving your body, unleashing your skills, and doing any other gameplay you can.

And for players with [Dead], the duration will not be long.

Most [dead] states only last a few minutes at most.

If in this short period of a few minutes.

If the player did not use [Resurrection Coins], or did not receive Resurrection and Healing from [Priest] or any other source.

Then they will truly die, end their state of death, and go to Nether Purgatory.

So in other words.

The [Dead] state can be roughly understood as the amount of time a player can struggle at the last moment.

And the fact that [Ancient Prison Breath] has been in a [Death] state since 1.0 is a pretty incredible thing in itself.

If it is placed in a previous life, it is like a person, after more than ten years of death, the body still has not decomposed......

This kind of thing, just thinking about it is quite terrifying.

But if it is placed in the Holy Spirit Realm, it barely feels a little reasonable.

Coupled with the [Forbidden Magic] that the Ancient Prison Breath has studied, it has quite a lot of power in itself.

So.

In this world, anything is possible.

But that being said.

After Mullen greeted him cordially, the other party did not respond to his greeting.

The player in the [Dead] state is very vegetative-like beings.

Therefore, they have almost no perception of the existence of various sounds, lights and other things in the outside world.

However, Mu Lun himself was very aware of this, so he didn't pay attention to Gu Prison's reaction, but just talked to himself.

"Governor Mullen."

"May I take the liberty of asking you?"

Paceor, who was on the side, cautiously asked in a low voice:

"I'm curious."

"How do you know that he hasn't died yet?"

Mullen didn't immediately answer the other party's words.

He just opened his [inventory] and slowly pulled out an item.

[Item: Frozen Heart]

[Type: Special Item]

[Details: A heart encased in hard ice!] If you listen closely, it is beating as hard as it can despite the freezing cold......]

[Note: This item cannot be discarded or destroyed.] ]

Frozen...... Heart?

And [Special Item]?

Ramour was slightly stunned.

In the Holy Spirit Realm, the number of things that can be defined as [special items] is actually extremely rare.

Because they generally possess quite rare properties, or rather hidden functions.

Nothing else.

This [Frozen Heart], just a simple remark from it, is already worthy of its [Special Item] positioning.

"Not to be discarded and destroyed" – in a nutshell.

Under the rules of the system, there is absolutely no way for this thing to disappear out of thin air.

First of all, being unable to discard means that it can only be removed from a person's [backpack bar]

, transfer to another [backpack bar].

And if it can't be destroyed, it means that there is no way to destroy the item.

Even if you take it out of the [backpack bar], throw it off a cliff, soak it in aqua regia, throw it into the crater......

It also doesn't disappear from your [inventory slot].

There's only one way to get it out of [backpack slot].

It's about finding a way to trigger the item's hidden effect and using it wisely.

"Do you know what this is?"

Mullen looked at Lamor and asked lightly.

"I don't know ......"

Ramor shook his head, puzzled, "It can't be a [drop] in the [10,000-year-old Snow Mountain] wild......

"But it doesn't feel likely."

"After all, [Ten Thousand Years Snow Mountain] is in the north, and there is still a long way to go from the Malton Empire."

"And the Duchy of Orrenster is located in the southernmost part of Malton."

"Most people who live in Ornster don't even see snow all year round."

"So......

"I really can't think of it."

Probably as expected, Mullen didn't have much surprise or other expressions.

He just said in a somewhat faint tone, "This is the heart of [Ancient Hell Breath]."

「???」

La Morden was stunned.

The heart of the Ancient Hell's Breath?

No way?

This answer obviously surprised Lamour.

But if you concentrate and take a serious look at the thing in Mullen's hand.

will find out.

The frozen heart seemed to be flickering and glittering, emitting a blue glow.

It's like a breathing lamp, with a steady frequency and rhythm.

That moment.

It was as if Lamour really had a wonderful illusion.

It's like......

That [Frozen Heart] is really a living thing.

Soon, however, Ramour found out.

This thing doesn't seem to be so simple.

Because of that [Frozen Heart]—

It seems that it really has some kind of vitality.

As Mullen held it in his hand, he gradually approached the ancient prison in the tomb.

It was as if some kind of connection had been established between it and the ancient prison breath all at once.

The first is the flickering frequency of [Frozen Heart], which has suddenly become a lot faster.

Thin threads of blue spilled out from within the [Frozen Heart].

Then he slowly leaned out, and finally connected to the body of the ancient prison breath.

It was as if a few blood vessels had been improvised and began to deliver blood and nutrients to a dried corpse in a refrigerated state.

And then again.

The Ancient Prison Breath, which was in a state of [death], slowly opened his eyes and regained consciousness.

「……」

At this scene, Ramor almost had his eyeballs exploding.

,!

That's *** enough to hell!

This has been *** dead since version 1.0 and has been buried in the cemetery [Ancient Prison Breath].

Not only is he not dead, but he is also a special corpse!

In Ramour's heart now, it can be said that there are a hundred regrets.

A batch he now regrets.

I regret myself, why did I come to such a hellish place with Mullen at that time.

It's better to just be in the office and die with Lu Zhi......

I don't know if the scenes in [Nether Purgatory] are not as scary as they are now.

But.

Although I was already scared and almost urinated.

But Ramour was still able to guess it.

This should be the special effect of [Frozen Heart].

"Long time no see......

After waking up slightly.

Gu Prison looked at Mu Lun in front of him, and let out a somewhat hoarse low moan:

"What I want......

"You brought ......"

Mu Lun nodded and said with a slight smile:

"Yes."

"Your heart is in my hands right now."

Yes.

This [Frozen Heart] is the heart of the Ancient Hell Breath.

Just before Hellbreath was killed by the Kingdom Raiders.

The forbidden technique that Gu Hell had spent years of painstaking research had finally come to fruition.

This forbidden spell can cause his H to reset to zero, and when he enters the [Death] state, the [Special Item] [Frozen Heart] will drop from his body.

Followed by.

This [Special Item] will go directly into the killer's [Backpack Slot].

- That is, the great magician Xia Mingzhe who once killed him.

And [Frozen Heart] has only one function.

That is the ancient inferno breath in the resurrection [death] state.

And after that, its owner, the Ancient Prison, will always live in a state of [death].

- Dead, but not completely dead.

This is the horror of the forbidden spell of the Ancient Hell's Breath.

And the most unreasonable thing about this [special item] is that.

It's an item that can't make it disappear.

Even if Xia Mingzhe is killed, [Frozen Heart] is burst out of the [backpack bar].

It will also only automatically go into the next killer's [Backpack].

Other words.

As long as this thing has always existed, then the ancient prison breath is equivalent to never really dying.

It's just a heavy pair of shackles.

As long as someone can find this key and willingly find him and untie this shackle on his body.

Then he will be truly resurrected.

The ancient prison has been waiting for many years.

And then finally waited for Mullen.

"Very good......

"Very good......

The dry face and the narrow mouth of the ancient prison slowly split to the sides.

An extraordinarily menacing laugh came from the depths of the throat of the ancient prison breath.

"You've done a fantastic job, Mullen..."

"Hurry up and ......"

"Give it to me ......"

Gu Prison Breath laughed greedily.

He stretched out his hand towards Mullen, like a child rushing to eat candy, revealing a look of infinite longing that was visible to the naked eye.

However.

Just when the hand of the Ancient Prison Breath was about to come into contact with the [Frozen Heart].

Mu Lun's hand, as if teasing, took back the ice-blue [special item] a few centimeters.

The ancient prison breath that was empty did not give up, and poked his dry fingers forward a few centimeters.

Mullen, on the other hand, moved back a few centimeters.

That's it.

Under Mu Lun's methods and operations, the distance between the Ancient Prison Breath and the [Frozen Heart] has always been a little bit away, and it is difficult to move an inch.

"What do you mean, Mullen......

Gu Prison's face contorted, revealing a somewhat indecipherable expression.

But Ramour could roughly feel that it was mostly an angry look with a hint of impotence.

"It's not interesting."

Mu Lun smiled and said, "Thing, me

Of course I can give it to you."

"But there are prerequisites."

"I'm not stupid enough to work for nothing."

Gu Prison said coldly, "What do you want?"

"Strength."

Mullen said bluntly.

He grinned slowly, a sinister smile.

And looked directly into the eyes of the ancient prison breath, and sneered quietly:

"I'm going to—"

"Your power."

The wind is beautiful on Monday.

The first rays of the morning sun slowly fell on the earth.

The bedside alarm goes off.

Lu Qingge slowly opened his eyes and sat up on the bed on time.

Pull back the curtains, squint to the wall, and turn the page of the calendar.

"Finally."

"This day is still coming."

Lu Qingge muttered.

On top of the calendar on the latest page.

The large characters left by the ink pen of a line of words float on it——

"Job Transfer Ceremony".
