Chapter 87 [Blood Moon Secret Treasure] and [Crimson Ancient Tree] (3000)
In the shadow-shrouded block, a figure that passed quickly suddenly stopped.
"...Is this?"
Looking at the new situation emerging in front of him, Xia En had a strange expression.
It feels like there are a few more stars in the upper right corner of the camera.
"Isn't it just to kill an old man?"
"Why are they so reactive? They are even wanted."
"But..."
Xia En is very Quickly noticed the penultimate line in the description.
"Any blood could be a target for marking?"
The projected body itself has no blood, but if a vampire deliberately leaves his own blood on him, it is possible to lock his location.
Xia En looked at the remaining blood stains on his windbreaker and the [Blood Sword] in his hand.
"It seems that I have to be more careful from now on."
"But this time..."
The corners of his mouth raised slightly, and he took a sudden step forward , slashed at the house on the right!
laugh!
The wall was cut open with a sword, and at the same time, the head of a vampire youth flew high.
“…Let me make a big fuss.”
“It’s not certain who is the hunter and who is the prey!”
…
...
【Submarine is over! 】
【Please choose your trophy! 】
【1. Broken Blood Slave Corpse】
【2. Passan Falon’s Eyeball】
【3. Bloodstone Necklace】
【4. Lisa Seth’s legs (including feet)】
“...Well, you guys are stronger this time. "
Xia En opened his eyes in the captain's cabin and touched his neck.
The pain of being cut open by the sharp blood line still vaguely remains on the surface of the skin there.
Although he did cause a scene in the city and killed countless vampires and blood slaves.
But the [Ship Soul Power] is limited after all, and being surrounded by enemies, it is inevitable to suffer defeat in the end.
However, Xia En did not feel sad for the death of the projection body for a moment. Instead, he only felt that this wave was not a loss.
His projections are endless.
The number of vampires in the secret realm is always limited.
Let’s see who can outlast whom!
Later, Xia En looked at these trophies.
His eyes lingered on option 4 for a moment, and his mood was a little subtle.
“Why legs? Do you want to emphasize the feet?”
“And, it turns out that vampire corpses are also good materials?”
[Pasan Falon's Eyeball]
[Quality: Normal]
[Type: Material]
[Description: The eyeball of a vampire. 】
【After special processing and matching with other materials, it can be made into one-time props such as "Detective Eyes" and "Profane Poison". 】
[Pharmaceuticals are risky, so be careful when smelting them. 】
If you think about it carefully, the corpse of such an extraordinary creature already contains a certain amount of secret power, so it is not surprising that it can be used as a material.
“In the Thirty-two Secret Paths, there seems to be professions like [Alchemist] and [Poacher]?”
“It would be a big deal to give extraordinary materials to such professions. "
"Unfortunately, I can't use it for the time being."
Xia En didn't hesitate and quickly chose the [Bloodstone Necklace].
This is also a relic of that "Lisa Seth".
The strength of this vampire woman is not inferior to that of the old gentleman, and she caused a lot of trouble to Xia En during the siege.
And Xia En knows the essence of group fighting -
It is better to grab one of them and beat him to death than to share the rain and dew.
Therefore, he chased Lisa Seth for three streets, and then he was surrounded by vampires and beat her to death, thus obtaining this [Bloodstone Necklace].
After a thought.
A necklace composed of several blood-colored crystals appeared in the palm of Xia En's hand.
This "blood stone" is different from the gems and crystals in Sean's impression.
The surface has a warm temperature and even feels a little soft, as if touching the skin of a living person.
If you look closely, you can find that there are many fine and tiny secret patterns on it.
Inside, there seemed to be viscous liquid flowing.
[Bloodstone Necklace]
[Quality: Rare]
[Type: Equipment]
[Description: A necklace made of blessed bloodstone, which has a calming effect. 】
[After wearing it, it can moderately increase magic affinity, spell casting concentration and stability. 】
【Bloodstone is a product secreted by the "Crimson Ancient Tree" after absorbing blood. It is a rare and extraordinary material. 】
【It is also a backup food for the vampires. 】
The necklace itself is not particularly special. It can only be said to be a good piece of extraordinary equipment, more suitable for spell casters.
But the information in the description made Xia En quite concerned.
"Bloodstone...Crimson ancient tree..."
There was a look of thought in his eyes.
Obviously.
Even if there are means such as dormancy and deep sleep, the desire to drink blood carved deep in the blood of the vampires is difficult to eliminate.
So, how should they solve this physiological need during the long period between [Blood Moon Nights]?
The blood stone in Xia En's hand is undoubtedly the answer.
Preserve concentrated blood in a solid state without losing its original activity.
A perfect reserve grain was born.
In the process, it also acquires mysterious and extraordinary characteristics. "However, there are no restrictions on bloodstones that can only be used by vampires."
“For some secret travelers, this may also be regarded as a secret treasure?”
“There is also the [Crimson Ancient Tree]... the name sounds like a good thing, say It may not be able to produce something similar to a magic potion.”
From this perspective.
The legend about the secret treasure of [Blood Moon Secret Realm] is not completely fabricated out of thin air.
It's just that ordinary explorers may not have the chance to see them.
After thinking for a moment, Shane walked to the deck, ready to take a few breaths of fresh air.
Staying in the decadent and depressing environment of [Blood Moon Secret Realm] for a long time will cause problems sooner or later.
"Mr. Captain!"
Joy, who was reading on the deck, was the first to notice his arrival and greeted him with a smile.
[Scholar] This secret path is just like its name. It requires accumulating a lot of knowledge before you can move to the next step.
Therefore, the process of reading itself is actually a kind of practice.
It just so happens that Joey is also a good kid who loves to learn.
——Her trait of knowing a little bit about everything is exactly a sign of being good at learning.
It’s just that because of my poor life when I was young, I didn’t have the opportunity to study.
Now that there was money on the ship, Xia En simply bought a batch of books covering history, geography, magic, cooking and other fields for her to enjoy.
Xia En was originally worried that Joey didn’t have a teacher and didn’t know how to get started.
Who would have thought that An actually volunteered and took on the responsibility of being a teacher.
Xia En discovered that this knight was actually extremely knowledgeable!
But when asked where he learned this knowledge, An said he didn't know either.
In his words -
[It's like...a long time ago, someone planted the seeds of these knowledge in my mind. 】
【As I grow, they grow naturally. 】
Xia En can only regard it as the "racial talent of the elves."
At this time, An was in the other corner of the deck, carrying out unique training.
His body, covered in thick armor, kept assuming strange poses one after another.
The movements are very slow, but each posture seems to exercise most of the muscles in the body, and is extremely energy-consuming.
At the same time, the breath coming from under the armor carried an indescribable mysterious rhythm.
One breath, one breath.
It forms an extremely harmonious ensemble with the beating of the heart and the flow of blood.
[Knight Strengthening Technique]
[Knight Breathing Technique]
These two secret techniques are the knowledge that An created in his mind after being promoted to [Knight].
——By the way, after binding An as a crew member, Shane also learned this skill.
Looking at the knight in front of him.
Even without using [Blood Sense], Xia En could detect that this knight was getting stronger bit by bit.
Be down-to-earth and accumulate a lot of experience.
This is undoubtedly the best evaluation of An.
Although there is no such exaggerated growth rate as Xia En, the two crew members are still moving forward steadily on their own paths.
Xia En felt a little relieved.
After thinking about it, he handed the [Bloodstone Necklace] to Joey.
"...is this?"
"This is a small gift for you. It may be helpful for you to practice magic."
Joy took the necklace and immediately felt It's extraordinary.
The active secret power is flowing in the necklace.
However, this bloody crystal reminded her of the huge blood moon on the sea.
But Joey didn’t ask anything, just nodded heavily.
“Thank you, Mr. Captain!”
In fact, it was such a long time on the boat.
Both Joey and An were vaguely aware of what was special about Xia En from some clues.
There is only the last layer of window paper left between us and the truth.
It's just that both parties tacitly understood it and didn't expose it.
Wow!
At this moment, the sound of water coming from the sea attracted Xia En's attention.
He turned around and looked.
I saw several sailors jumping into the sea on a nearby salvage boat.
The faces of these people were full of excitement and anticipation.
They had no idea what kind of danger would be waiting for them under the blood moon.
Moreover, not only this ship, but also many ships on Silver Moon Bay sent a second batch of crew members to the sea today.
There are even some ships that actually just arrived near Silver Moon Island today.
It is foreseeable that in the next month, there will be batches of treasure hunters who will join the [Blood Moon Secret Realm] without hesitation.
For the vampires, this must be a sumptuous feast.
To be honest, Xia En doesn't actually care too much about the life and death of these outsiders.
You choose your own path, and you have to bear the cost.
But just these two submarine explorations...
Xia En discovered that after drinking enough blood, the strength of the vampires would increase to varying degrees.
To put it simply, when the [Blood Moon Secret Realm] first opened, these vampires were actually in a "hungry" and "weak" state.
But with the influx of treasure hunters, they will gradually return to their heyday.
The difficulty of the entire [Blood Moon Secret Realm] will also continue to increase.
When Xia En was thinking.
Dang...dang...
Several bells rang not far away.
He looked up, but couldn't help but frown slightly.
On the sea, I saw a huge ship with a siren sail, sailing towards the Black Swan surrounded by waves!
Thanks to "Tao Yuanming" for the 100 coin reward! Thank you so much!
Renovation started upstairs today, and I even had to go to the library to code. I felt... extremely ashamed!
