Chapter 818
The vast majority of people cannot afford the cost of resurrection, nor can they afford the cost of regenerating a severed limb. Even the medical expenses for simple flesh injuries are a large expense, so having no faults when going out is more important than having merit.
This is the case for adventurers. When they go out, most of them will form a team of at least three people, and they rarely fight alone. After all, this is not about playing a game and performing a solo. You only have one life, and there are always things you can't take care of.
Even Aldai, who takes action as soon as she gets interested, knows this. She took her teammates with her when she went out to look for the Demon King's Ring twice. After all, even high-level mages sometimes slip up accidentally.
For example, when entering the gate of a ruins, adventurers will first throw a light source in, and then enter the door back-to-back in a compact formation.
Just like driving into a tunnel, the drastic change in light and darkness can blur one's vision or even make it temporarily invisible. If a monster seizes this momentary flaw to attack, it will suffer heavy losses.
Everyone understands the truth, but under what circumstances can we ignore these small and fatal details?
That is, strong enough.
"Can you speak?"
Li Chengqi's only response was a roar.
This is a humanoid creature with pale skin, so white that you can clearly see the cyan blood vessels under the skin.
There was no hair, the eyes were glowing red, the face was twisted and shrunken, and a little bit of flesh clung to the bones, as if the skull was simply covered with skin.
It reminded Li Chengqi of the oranges that he accidentally left in his coat pocket and stuffed into the closet for several months.
But despite its skinny appearance, it was quite strong. Li Chengqi picked it up by its neck and lifted it up with one hand. The guy kept struggling, and the sharp nails on his toes scraped ravines on the floor.
"It's hard for me to deal with your attitude. Speak."
"Ho ho ho!"
"How many people are in your family?"
"Ho ho ho!"
"Your mother is dead"
"Ho ho ho!"
This should be due to a simple inability to speak. After all, there is no problem of language barrier before God.
To be honest, Li Chengqi was disappointed that the vampire looked like this.
Before he came here, he thought she was a two-dimensional legal loli girl with a pair of cute little tiger teeth.
——There is a huge difference between ideal and reality.
The most important thing is that this grandson is completely unable to communicate. Li Chengqi still wanted to 'get' some information, but he ended up barking randomly.
After thinking for a moment, Li Chengqi remembered that he could use divine power. Can Li Chengqi's usual operations in front of the computer be realized?
Thinking of this, Li Chengqi maintained the lifting posture with one hand and used the other hand to right-click the mouse on the struggling unknown creature.
The principle is the same as Li Chengqi's ability to use his supernatural power to grab a Coke as soon as he reaches out. They are both methods of using movements to strengthen the impression. After all, divine power is idealistic energy.
Don't tell me, it turned out really well.
I don’t know whether it was projected on the retina or appeared in front of me. A panel full of text appeared one after another.
God has the ability to identify, and he can know the details of anything just by looking at it, but Li Chengqi's expression is more like a game.
"Oh, it's not a vampire, it's a blood slave. That's okay."
A blood slave refers to a guy who is drained of blood by a vampire and then regurgitates a little bit of it back, but the regurgitated amount is not enough to turn him into a vampire.
Simply put, they are slaves of vampires.
This thing is equivalent to a simplified version of a vampire. All its abilities are much weaker than those of a vampire. It is basically a vampire's watchdog.
The existence of blood slaves also proves that there are indeed vampires in this place. Blood slaves cannot survive alone. Blood slaves without a master will die immediately. If they are too far away from their masters, they will die immediately. Now that you know this is just a watchdog, there is no need to bother with it.
Li Chengqi exerted a little force on his fingers, and there was a click. The blood slave's neck fell to the side and he stopped struggling.
Just as he was about to throw it away and continue walking forward, before he let go, the blood slave suddenly began to struggle again, and the broken neck returned to its original position as if he had gone back in time.
Undead creatures can generally be divided into three broad categories, zombies, ghosts and skeletons.
However, vampires also belong to a very special category among undead creatures. They cannot be measured by the general theory of undead creatures. They belong to a separate line.
Vampires have powerful regenerative abilities like turning back time and are afraid of sunlight, but they can cast spells and have special blood magic, some of which are ways to avoid sunlight.
Not only can he cast spells, but his physical abilities are also very exaggerated. It is easy for a thin and pale vampire to tear tigers and leopards alive.
The most important thing is that vampires have intelligence. If their habit of drinking blood is not taken into account, the intelligence of these guys is no different from that of normal people.
This is much higher than other undead creatures that only know how to chase living people.
And as Li Chengqi is a god, any undead creature should be purified as long as it comes close, but vampires are fine.
It can only be said that they are called undead creatures because they have certain similarities with undead creatures, but the underlying logic may not belong to undead creatures at all, and it cannot be summarized for the time being.
Blood slaves are the beggar version of vampires, but the beggar version doesn't die just by breaking its neck.
Looking at the blood slave who was still struggling, Li Chengqi remembered that Aldai had mentioned before that in addition to being afraid of the sun, undead creatures were also afraid of healing spells.
"Treat serious injuries."
A divine holy light erupted from Li Chengqi's palm. The blood slave felt as if he was in flames, and every part of his skin was melting and cracking in the holy light.
It looks so disgusting.
But Aldai was right. With the explosion of divine holy light, the blood slave only struggled a few times and became completely motionless.
Li Chengqi once again planned to let go, but he saw a mass of darkness emerging from the ground like tentacles under the blood slave's feet, climbing up to the blood slave's feet.
In the blink of an eye, the burned blood slave, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, returned to its original state and continued to struggle and roar.
Oh shit, you can’t be beaten to death, can you?
This is not the ability of the blood slave itself, but the effect of the castle, similar to a magic barrier.
It's equivalent to when playing Yu-Gi-Oh, coming up and taking a field magic card.
Difficult to stretch.
Although if you leave it alone, it won't be able to break through the divine shield, but it's really disgusting to have such an ugly thing jumping up and down in front of your eyes.
Li Chengqi doesn't know how to remove magic, let alone remove barriers. The easiest way is to raise the entire castle together.
But we are here to find the Demon King's Ring. If the castle rises, then we can pull a ring from the ruins...
Li Chengqi thinks it won't work.
Looking at the struggling blood slave, especially the slender hands and feet, Li Chengqi suddenly had an idea.
"Don't move around, yes, lie down on the ground."
Accompanied by the crunching sound of broken bones and the blood slave's scream, which could not be distinguished as a threat or a growl, after a while, a squirming caterpillar appeared on the ground, still squirming and trying to gnaw on Li Chengqi's toes.
Simply chopping off the hands and feet was useless, but Li Chengqi chose to tie the blood slave's hands and feet together.
As for the rope?
Its slender limbs are themselves ropes.
