Chapter 117: Earth Emperor Blood Toad Segura!
Under the leadership of Wizard Percy, Rorschach and his party soon passed through a spatial witch circle in the prison master's mansion and came to a cave-like space.
But it's certainly not a cave, because the surrounding walls look like living creatures, and something seems to be wriggling under the walls!
Moreover, as soon as they entered this cave space, everyone had a feeling of panic, as if there was some kind of coercion.
"Is this the Eighth Blood Pool?" A high-ranking wizard apprentice named Levi asked Wizard Bercy.
He is ranked ninth among the ten people in Rorschach, and the ranking is relatively low, but his strength is definitely not weak.
Almost all of the Blood Hunters who can finally enter the top ten in the Blood Qi Ranking have the experience of fighting the 'Ten Kings' head-on, and they are the main ones, and like Hoover and Natalie, they all have a record of killing the 'Ten Kings' alone.
In this case, there is no such thing as fishing in troubled waters.
"No, it's not there yet, keep following me." Wizard Percy shook his head and led the group to the left hand side again.
While keeping up with the Wizard of Percy, Murphy noticed that Garon seemed to be gasping for breath and asked in a low voice:
"Are you alright, Boss?"
"I don't know why, as soon as I enter here, I have a feeling like I'm on my back, don't you?" Garon gasped.
"Yes, indeed." Rorschach said in a deep voice.
Because he felt exactly the same as Garon, if not more violently, if not for the fact that he could still use the power of purgatory to constantly undo this effect, he would probably be unable to move by now.
But according to his observations, of the eleven people, including the wizard of Percy, only he, Garon, and one other person had this reaction.
The man's name was Rai, and he was the sixth out of ten, second only to Murphy.
Rorschach had seen everyone with the Eyes of Hell before, so he knew that the only difference between Rye and the others was probably that in addition to being a high-level wizard apprentice, he was also a gold-level blood knight.
What he has in common with Garon and Rai is that they are not just wizard apprentices, they are also physically strong.
"The stronger your body, the more pressure you can feel......" Rorschach thought thoughtfully.
As he walked, he surveyed his surroundings.
The more he looked at it, the more he felt that everything around him didn't look like a dead thing, and suddenly a spiritual light flashed in his mind, and he looked directly at the wall with the pupil of true hell:
"Name: Esophageal Wall"
"Message: One of the 100 esophagus of the Emperor Blood Toad, one of which leads to the throat of the Emperor Blood Toad and the other to its abdomen."
"Hint: That's right, you are now in a fierce object called the Earth Emperor Blood Toad, which can be understood as a super double version of the 'Ten Kings', whether in terms of strength or size, this Earth Emperor Blood Toad is more than a thousand times more exaggerated than the Demon Whale King you have seen before!"
……
"Earth Emperor Blood Toad?"
Rorschach was relatively unfamiliar with this name, but it could also be seen from the hint of the Pupil of True Hell that this Earth Emperor Blood Toad was not a parallel commodity like the 'Ten Kings'.
"No wonder Garon and I have a sense of depression that is shocked, and we run directly into someone's body, can we not have a sense of depression?" Rorschach, who figured out the situation, suddenly had a feeling of being sudden.
The reason why only he and Garon and the high-level wizard apprentice named Rai were affected was indeed related to their other path besides the wizard apprentice, and this sense of oppression was like a collision of spirits between blood knights, which only existed when they could feel the coercion of the other party.
Although Garon is not a blood knight, he is a half-blood dragon, and in a way, he can be regarded as a half-blood knight.
"So, is the eighth blood pool actually in the body of this Earth Emperor Blood Toad, and where is the Earth Emperor Blood Toad located?" Rorschach thought curiously.
He had heard Chevara introduce the Eighth Blood Pool before, and although he didn't have a lot of information, he knew some general information.
For example, each of the eighteen blood prisons has a blood pool, and its formation is a reference to the boundless blood pool of the Blood Prison Island, which was created the day after tomorrow.
Although it is only an imitation, the effect is also amazing.
Even the three-ring morning star can get benefits from it, but the effect on everyone is only the best for the first time, and the follow-up will only decrease.
Even the Three-Ring Morning Star can benefit, let alone the wizard apprentices.
This is also why, these second generations of witches, including Murphy and Garon, have been able to try to break through the Morning Star early in the morning, but they have been waiting until now.
Because the eighth blood pool can not only increase the success rate of breaking through the Morning Star, its accumulation can even allow the user to take a big step forward after the breakthrough, and go straight to the peak of the first ring as soon as they break through, and then sprint to the second ring after completely stabilizing the realm!
Naturally, no one wants to miss out on such a huge benefit.
Didn't you see that even Hoover, a strong man, was waiting to retrain the stream, otherwise with his strength and experience, he would have been able to break through to the Morning Star a long time ago.
Rorschach ...... Look here......"
Rorschach, who was thinking about what was going on with the Earth Emperor Blood Toad, suddenly heard a voice calling to him not far away, and he immediately remembered Wizard Percy's previous reminder not to talk to anyone easily.
So he didn't respond, but he still looked in the direction where the voice came from, and saw a figure with an unclear face standing at the fork in the esophagus, waving to him.
He immediately looked at it with the eyes of a true hell:
"Name: Blood Toad Dead Couple"
"Message: The souls of the Earth Emperor Blood Toad who are unwilling to die wander in the body of the Earth Emperor Blood Toad, looking for objects to possess at any time, so that they can experience the joy of being living beings again, but the body of the Earth Emperor Blood Toad is like a cage for them, and they can never leave."
"Hint: the danger of the other, the opportunity of the other...... In fact, they are no threat to you, and they are even the best fuel!"
……
"Is this what Wizard Percy said of the source of the danger?" After reading the introduction of the dead puppet of the blood toad by the pupil of the real hell, Rorschach suddenly understood.
These blood toads are like resentful spirits locked in the body of the Earth Emperor's Blood Toad, and they can be temporarily 'resurrected' by possessing them.
As long as you ignore them, you are likely to be targeted.
However, because they were locked with the Earth Emperor Blood Toad, it was impossible for them to leave here even if they were successfully possessed.
Therefore, the target possessed by them will easily become the object of their venting, and basically there will be no good end.
That's why the wizard of Bethesy would say that if something unexpected happened, it would be difficult for him to save him.
Because even if they can fight, it is difficult to guarantee that these possessed blood toads will not directly abuse the body of the possessed, and it is possible to try to die together.
They can't die anyway, so they don't have to have any scruples at all.
To be sure, Rorschach was not alone in hearing the call, because the call was essentially a mental distraction, and everyone who heard it thought he was calling himself, but in fact it was calling indiscriminately.
However, because of the reminder of Wizard Percy, no one will respond to these blood toad puppets...... Except for Rorschach.
Rorschach ...... I'm a father......"
All Rorschach could hear was the Blood Toad Dead Puppet continuing to call out to him.
"Bah, who is taking advantage of, I'm your father!" Rorschach suddenly spat at the Blood Toad Dead Couple not far away.
His sudden response startled everyone, and even the wizard of Bethesy couldn't help but stop.
"Dick, you?" Murphy looked at Rorschach with some confusion.
"He said he was my father, can I put up with him? What the hell! Rorschach pouted.
“……”
Murphy: They were momentarily speechless.
"Look, that's gone!" A high-level wizard apprentice suddenly pointed to the direction where the Blood Toad Dead Puppet was originally located, and exclaimed in a low voice.
Wizard Percy was actually the first to notice this, but when he saw him, he immediately came to Rorschach, and said in a deep voice:
"Tell me your name!"
"Rorschach."
"Huh?" Wizard Percy was a little puzzled.
Because this is different from what he expected, according to past experience, even if the blood toad is successfully possessed, it will not become a real normal person.
Although they are weird, it is difficult for them to communicate like normal people.
If Rorschach was really possessed, then there would have been many reactions to the question he had just asked, but he would not have answered the name directly.
The Blood Toad Puppets do not know the name of the possessed, and only answer meaningless words or gibberish.
Rorschach was able to respond to him normally, apparently not possessed.
But just now, the dead puppet of the blood toad disappeared clearly, and the others did not respond to it, only Rorschach met all the conditions for being possessed.
"What's wrong, Wizard Bethsy?" Rorschach asked.
"Don't you feel something is wrong?" Wizard Percy asked.
"Nope." Rorschach shook his head.
Wizard Percy nodded without further questioning, and continued to lead the way.
Rorschach's heart was about to blossom at this time, because he had just triggered the possession condition of the blood toad puppet, and the blood toad puppet had indeed come to him, and then ...... There is no then.
Pull it directly into purgatory, it feels much more sour than being trapped in the body of the Earth Emperor Blood Toad, and its burning effect is even better than that of the Demon Ape King!
is such a blood soul dead couple, and the effect it exerts is as much as four or five demon ape kings.
Rorschach was originally a legend for the first time, but after catching this pie that fell from the sky, the realm immediately stabilized a lot.
But this is clearly just the beginning.
On the rest of the journey, every time he met a dead blood toad, Rorschach would greet them warmly.
Wizard Percy was wary at first, but gradually he discovered that these Blood Toad Couples, who were a threat to other wizard apprentices and even ordinary Morning Star, seemed to be completely useless to Rorschach.
Rorschach just greeted him all the way, and the dead blood toads disappeared one after another.
This is really the first time that Wizard Bercy has encountered such a strange situation, he has brought those first-ring and second-ring Morning Star wizards here, but he has never encountered such a situation, at most, some people can forcibly expel them.
It is worth mentioning that Rorschach's outrageous behavior obviously brought some illusions.
After entering here, Levi, the high-level wizard apprentice who spoke first, didn't know which way he smoked, and after meeting a new blood toad dead couple, Rorschach greeted him before he could speak.
After that, the blood soul disappeared as before, and the others were used to it for a long time and didn't think much about it.
However, Rorschach and Wizard Percy both had a change of expression!
"Damn, this stupid bird ......," Rorschach couldn't help but curse secretly.
He is not afraid, because Purgatory is the nemesis of these ghosts, and any weird and evil power is a younger brother in front of Purgatory.
What's more, these blood toads took the initiative to get up, just like moths to a fire.
But isn't Levi looking for death?
Wizard Percy would have specially reminded him that it was because these blood toads were very troublesome, and once they were successfully possessed, they could only be expelled by themselves.
"Tell me your name!" Wizard Percy stopped as he had done before, and came to Levi's presence.
"Hey...... The breath of the living...... Bloody ......" Levi replied in response, a grim smile on his face.
The other people around also saw that something was wrong and immediately retreated!
"Levi, wake me up!" Wizard Percy pressed a hand on Levi's forehead, stimulating him through some kind of psychic magic.
Levi's face really showed a look of struggle.
But at this moment, his struggling face suddenly changed to the weird smile he had before, and he smiled and said, "Lie to you-"
Boom!
Levi's whole person suddenly exploded on the spot, turning into a blood-colored trace on the ground, and these blood stains were quickly 'absorbed' by the ground.
In the blink of an eye, it was completely gone.
Only a few items left on the ground that belonged to Levi could prove that he existed.
This scene made most of the others have a heavy face.
Only a limited number of people, such as Wizard Bercy, Hoover, and Rorschach, were slightly stronger, and they were not impacted by this.
Because they were all mentally prepared for this, but they didn't expect that Levi, the unlucky child, would have to die by himself.
"I can't stop you if you want to die, but he's the best example, you can weigh it yourself." Wizard Percy said with a normal expression after briefly cleaning the blood stains on his body with a cleansing technique.
The death of a Levi was not important to him.
It's nothing more than ten people becoming nine people, and the difference is not big.
Even if someone continues to look for death, he will not stop him, he doesn't take his own life seriously, so why should he let others take it seriously?
With Levi's negative example, the rest of the people are more cautious, but Rorschach still maintains his 'warmth and politeness'.
No one knew why Rorschach was okay, but from that alone, they could tell that Rorschach was unfathomable.
Even Hoover looked at Rorschach with a slight surprise.
A moment later.
Everyone came to a place that looked like an exit, a huge arched hole that should lead to a wider space.
When the crowd walked out of the huge arched hole, they came to a place that looked like a diving platform, and in the huge space outside the hole, there were hundreds of identical protruding platforms.
Below the platform is a blood-colored lake, bubbling and looking like it's being heated.
"This is it." The wizard of Percy stopped.
Rorschach and the others also stopped, and began to look around, as well as the blood-colored lake below what appeared to be the Eighth Blood Pool.
"Long time no see, little Bossie."
A somewhat shrill voice sounded, and the owner of the voice was a blood-colored toad that jumped on top of the head of the Wizard of Percy at some point, very anthropomorphic in a practice suit, about the size of a fist.
"We just met last month, Master Segura." Wizard Percy was a little speechless.
"Yes, ahhahahahahaha The blood-colored toad laughed.
When Rorschach saw the blood-colored toad, he also directly observed the past:
"Name: Segura (Flesh Incarnate)"
"Race: Earth Emperor Blood Toad"
"Person: ???"
"Hint: You're in its body right now, and it seems to look at you very well."
……
Really!
Rorschach had already guessed when he saw the blood-colored toad.
Garon didn't know, but since he had known for a long time, he had already known that he and the others were in the body of a terrifying beast called the Earth Emperor Blood Toad, and at this time, this blood-colored toad suddenly appeared above the head of the Wizard of Percy.
Then this blood-colored toad is most likely related to the Earth Emperor Blood Toad.
It's just that Rorschach didn't guess that this blood-colored toad was the Earth Emperor's Blood Toad, or that the other party was embodied in his body in this way.
In addition, since he couldn't fully observe all the information of the blood-colored toad, he could also show that the person of the Earth Emperor Blood Toad was at least equivalent to the moon.
It's not surprising that the wizards of Percy would call them adults.
"These little guys are the winners of this blood hunt?" The blood-colored toad's gaze then looked at Rorschach and the nine of them.
Originally, it was supposed to be ten, but now Levi has lost one man.
"Yes." Wizard Percy confirmed.
The blood-colored toad nodded, and then suddenly jumped from the top of Wizard Percy's head to the top of Rorschach's head and said, "You little guy is very good, I will come to help Lord Ben get rid of insects when I have time in the future, and Lord Ben will not treat you badly." ”
"Insect control?" Rorschach didn't react for a moment.
"It's those dead couples, itching to death all day long, little Bossie, they are also very difficult to deal with, I think you seem to be very good at pest control, are you willing to help Lord Ben?" The blood-colored toad asked expectantly.
When Rorschach heard this, he was actually a little moved.
Because if the so-called deworming refers to dealing with those blood toads and dead couples, this matter not only does not bring him any burden, but also allows him to have a lot of extra fuel out of thin air, which is like a buffet.
Even if there were no additional benefits, he was willing.
However, he didn't say yes, but muttered, "But I won't necessarily stay in the Eighth Blood Prison forever......"
"What does it matter, hands up." The blood-colored toad said.
Rorschach was a little confused when he heard this, but he still raised his left hand.
Immediately after, I saw that the blood-colored toad jumped directly onto his hand, and then writhed around on his hand a few times.
"That's it!"
After doing all this, the blood-colored toad jumped back above the head of the Wizard of Percy and said, "Now you can come here at any time, as long as you are still under the shroud of the boundless blood prison, you can come here through this mark." ”
The first one!
