Chapter 96: Guide to the Hidden Dungeon, the Struggle of [Blood Hunter Guild]
[The End of Submarine! 】
In the captain's cabin, as soon as Xia En opened his eyes, he saw the familiar ceiling.
"The way of death this time is really disgusting."
Recalling the feeling of being wrapped in sticky mud, Xia En couldn't help but get goosebumps all over his body.
Fortunately, during several submersible dives, he had also developed extremely strong nerves, and he calmed down after just taking a few deep breaths.
“Let me see if this drop of blood is worth the high price I paid.”
The spoils of this dive are simple and clear, there is only one thing——
< br>[Blood of the Crimson Ancient Tree]
[Type: Material]
[Quality: Precious]
[Description: Blood full of the secret power of blood and the power of the secret sea. 】
【It also contains a large amount of dirty impurities, and direct absorption will cause serious pollution. 】
【Perhaps...the secret power can be realized in a special way? 】
“...Huh?”
Xia En frowned slightly: "Can't it be absorbed directly?"
Think about it carefully.
Generally, the blood of vampires contains a large number of negative emotions of those who have been sucked.
Invisible pollution has long been flowing deep in their blood.
Not to mention, this [Crimson Ancient Tree] has lived for who knows how many years and has digested many corpses.
If you absorb this drop of blood rashly, you may become a madman.
"But what does it mean to feel in a special way?"
Xia En touched his chin and secretly complained: "Why is the Riddler even starting to appear on the panel?"< br>
He lowered his head and carefully observed the blood on his palm.
This drop of ancient tree blood is very viscous, almost like a crystal when it doesn't move.
Just by taking a closer look, you can see what's special about it.
Threads of black matter are surging in it, as well as some faint, fleeting starlight.
"The black ones should be the so-called impurities, and the starlight... seems to be the form of the power of the secret sea?"
Xia En thought to himself, and suddenly realized something in his heart.
“Although [Crimson Ancient Tree] is a plant, its body fluid is also called blood by [Eye of the Secret Sea].”
"Then, the talent [Blood Power] might be able to take effect on him!"
Xia En has always done things vigorously and resolutely, so he would try it whenever he thought of it.
As he activated the [Power of Blood], his consciousness came into contact with this drop of blood.
Boom!
In an instant, a thunderous noise sounded in Xia En's mind.
The scene in front of him suddenly changed.
The surroundings turned into a dense forest, and the feet were solid and warm soil.
The gaze rises upward, and the bright sunshine shines down, making it seem pleasant and comfortable.
“Is this?!”
Xia En was shocked and found that he had lost the feeling of his hands and feet, replaced by branches, leaves, and roots buried underground...
"...I became [Crimson Ancient Tree]?!"
Before Xia En could think clearly about the current situation, several handsome men and women with pale faces and strange temperaments came under him.
These men and women looked happy, cheering, or moved to tears.
He even knelt down on the ground and recited something devoutly.
But seeing this scene, He was not happy at this time. Instead, he was a little confused and unhappy.
And soon, something even more unpleasant happened to Him.
These strangers began to bring some captives to the tree, slit their throats, and watered the ground beneath His feet with blood.
He was forced to drink blood, and some dirty impurities were mixed into his body.
He felt uncomfortable, but could not refuse.
Time passed quickly, people sent more and more sacrifices, and more and more impurities accumulated in His body.
The surrounding trees were cut down and a city was built here.
More and more people come to worship Him every day, but He only feels bored, bored and unwilling.
Until one day, the master of this city came to Him.
"Holy Tree, I am willing to use the civilians of this city as sacrifices and sink this place into the [Secret Sea]."
He did not respond, just stared at him coldly .
The man smiled: "Your wishes don't matter. You can no longer disobey me."
"In the name of Scarlet, I order you to fulfill my wish!"
< br>His heart roared with rage.
Emotions of resentment and hatred burst out.
But to no avail.
The power from deep within the blood controlled his body.
Forced him to accept the sacrifice and took the entire city into the [Secret Sea].
After that, He never saw the sun again. He just absorbed the filthy corpses day after day, letting his consciousness fall into the abyss step by step.
……
...
"Huha... Huha..."
Xia En suddenly woke up, breathing hard, and a layer of cold sweat broke out on his back.
The hallucination just now was so real that he almost thought he was the real [Crimson Ancient Tree].
The emotions of anger, resentment and depravity seemed to still remain in his heart.
"That was... the memory of [Crimson Ancient Tree] just now?"
After calming down, Xia En was surprised.
He originally thought that [Crimson Ancient Tree] was the accomplice of the vampires, but now it seems that he is also a victim?
"In this case, is it possible to communicate with Him?"
Xia En thought for a moment and felt that it was feasible.
However, what concerned him more was the new information that appeared on the panel.
【You have come into contact with a small amount of the power of the mysterious sea from the "Blood of the Crimson Ancient Tree"! 】
【Your perception of the secret sea has increased! 】
Seeing these two lines of text, Xia En's eyes suddenly lit up and his heart pounded.
“It actually works!”
"Maybe... I can really get in touch with the second-level promotion ritual in this way!"
In the end, one of Xia En's main purposes in exploring the [Blood Moon Secret Realm] is to obtain the information that can lead to the second-level promotion! level potion.
Now, although the magic potion has not been found, another opportunity for promotion has been found.
“It’s really a big circle.”
Xia En sighed in his heart, looking forward to exploring the other side of the [Blood Moon Secret Realm].
……
……
A few days followed.
Xia Endu is using various methods to try to conquer the "hidden copy" in this [Blood Moon Secret Realm].
Sometimes trying to communicate with the [Crimson Ancient Tree], sometimes controlling the [Crimson Ancient Tree] [Power of Blood] directly senses the blood in its body.
Sometimes I climb to the heights of the roots of ancient trees, wanting to have close contact with the [Secret Sea]...
Some of these methods have worked, and some have not.
But Xia En clearly felt that he was getting closer and closer to the promotion ritual, and there were even occasional vague calls in his ears.
At the same time.
The survivors in [Blood Moon Secret Realm] are in a very difficult situation.
In fact, the overall strength of the [Blood Hunter Guild] is far inferior to that of the Vampire Clan.
The reason why we were able to barely support it before was all thanks to the help of [Shadow of the Faceless] to share the attention of many vampires.
Right now, the [Shadowless Shadow] is nowhere to be seen, and the [Blood Hunter Guild] quickly suffers a large number of casualties.
At this moment, in a hidden house.
Several leaders of the [Blood Hunting Society] are gathering here.
"So, is the federal reinforcement you said true or false?"
A man with purple hair and a grumpy personality looked at the black-haired boy not far away and said in a rather unkind tone.
“Damn it, if you wait any longer, all my brothers will be dead!”
The man is none other than the captain of the [Thunder], Loren “Thunder Tooth”!
But compared with more than twenty days ago, he is now covered in injuries, with several circles of bandages wrapped around his arms, his breath is listless, and he looks miserable.
However, being able to survive in the [Blood Moon Secret Realm] for so many days is enough to show that Loren is strong.
“Quiet!”
On the other side, Alyssa, the captain of the [Siren], gave Loren a cold look, making him immediately cower.
Loren knows that he really can’t afford to mess with this bitch!
The pirates at sea only heard the rumors that Loren pursued Alyssa, but they never knew that after the pursuit failed, he was severely punished by the queen "Ye Ji" stepping on her soles!
So much so that it left an indelible psychological shadow on him.
After Alyssa easily suppressed Loren, she couldn't help but look at the black-haired boy on the main seat.
"Mr. Feiya, although Loren's attitude is a bit impatient, his question is also what I want to ask."
"Whether it is true or false, I hope you can tell the truth. "
"Will the Federation...really take action?"
Not only Alyssa and Loren, but also the other survivors present looked at Feiya, hoping to get definite news from him.
In fact, after being hunted by the vampires one after another in the past few days and suffering heavy casualties, the reason why the [Blood Hunting Society] has not fallen apart is because of the promise Feiya made.
If the Federation takes action, things may turn around.
If the so-called "reinforcements" were lies from the beginning, I am afraid that a large number of people will completely lose their will to fight.
Looking at everyone's eyes, Fei Ya sighed and said extremely seriously.
"In this case, I won't hide it from you anymore."
"Tonight is the time to fight back!"
Thanks to "Ye Xiangling" for the 3,000-coin reward! Thank you so much!
I feel a little headache today, I am not in good condition, and I haven’t updated a bit!
