Chapter 153 Presentation

Silla hesitated for a while, but the thunder outside the window woke him up. He walked to the window, took in the cold rain and rubbed his face, becoming determined again. He turned around, just in time to see the dripping Pinot Noir walking up the stairs.

Pinot Noir smiled: "Hi, Syrah, what's going on now?"

"Are you... Pinot Noir?"

"Yes, I am." After Qingyi answered subconsciously, he noticed something was wrong and frowned: "Did I act weird just now?"

"It's like being possessed by a ghost, and my temperament has changed drastically."

Qingyi quickly looked through the historical records. Sure enough, Xue Duo not only occupied his body just now, but also turned on the "seriously ill person" mode - what a waste! The "seriously ill person" who can keep pace with heroes and great gods was actually used for nothing.

For a puzzle mission without combat elements, the progress bar has even reached 87%! Qingyi really wants to cry, but the current situation is special and he will settle the score with Xue Duo later.

…………

When I first recruited the necromantic alchemist Strrum...

"The ground powder of the 'Soul Gem' is then mixed with the phosphorus powder of Ghost Wolf to turn it into a psychedelic potion. I named it 'Qingbi Dream'. The power of this psychedelic potion is changed by

Controlled by the ratio of the two powders, the most powerful one can make an intermediate NPC fall into a hallucination for three minutes."

"Psychedelic drugs are useless against undead creatures. Our soul fire is more powerful than ordinary creatures. In other words, our willpower and mental power are strong, and we will not be easily trapped in hallucinations."

"No, Your Majesty. You definitely don't know that 'Blue Dream' is contrary to other psychedelic potions: the weaker the willpower of an NPC, the easier it is to save, but the higher the willpower of the NPC, the easier it is to be attacked.

This is because the soul gem powder contained in it is pure soul power. Anyone who absorbs it will have a moment of ecstasy, and the stronger the soul, the deeper the feeling."

"The stronger the enemy, the easier it is for the psychedelic potion to take effect? ​​Couldn't it be used to defeat the BOSS?"

"Ah, no, it must be a target with exposed soul fire to be effective, because the 'Green Dream' can only directly act on the soul. If it is absorbed by the body, it will be restored to the power of the soul."

"That is to say... you worked for a long time and came up with a psychedelic potion that can only be used against undead creatures, and this potion cannot be used on living creatures, otherwise the opponent will increase its power?!"

…………

The reason why Qingyi fell to the ground was as simple as that. The "Qingbi Dream" was added to the wine. Living people would become extremely powerful after drinking it, while undead creatures would instantly lose their ability to fight. Floods washed away the Dragon King Temple, and they produced it domestically.

The things in turn deceived him. "Qingbi Dream" has a time limit, and Qingyi could have woken up on his own, but Xue Duo deliberately kept drinking alcohol in order to increase the progress bar of the "seriously ill person" by a few percentage points, resulting in

Qingyi has been unable to regain control of his body. If Chardonnay hadn't snatched the bottle, Qingyi might not have woken up yet.

"A lot of things seemed to have happened while I was in coma?" It's really hard to describe Qingyi's situation while sleeping, but let's focus on the present for now.

“Chardonnay and Merlot are caught.”

Qingyi quickly looked through the records again. Well, the tasks have "fermented" in the third stage! There is really no sense of immersion!

System prompt: During the investigation, the truth gradually becomes clear, but then victims appear one after another. The story is about to reach its climax. Please race against time to solve the problem and avoid the worst situation from happening.

"Pinot Noir, listen carefully." Silas: "I am a witcher. There have been many disappearances in this town. After many days of investigation, I think they were caused by vampires. I pretended to be a tourist and finally found someone.

I sneaked in by chance, but it's a pity that I couldn't protect you."

…………

Silla shook her head and carried

The suitcase came over, as if he was being forced to complete a task reluctantly: "You guys really have no common sense when drinking in an unknown environment."



"Our gathering tonight is purely accidental. This is an arrangement of fate. With our ordinary eyes, it is difficult to see whether this arrangement is good or bad. All we can do is face it calmly." Silla's voice was deep and magnetic, saying from behind.

There may be many stories. He glanced at everyone and showed a rare smile: "Respect fate."



Syrah spat out the wine in her mouth, stretched out her hand to test the breath of Pinot Noir, then pressed her hands on his neck and left chest in turn, shook her head and said, "Dead."



Silla's behavior was a bit abnormal. When others were chatting, he just rummaged through boxes and cabinets, which was rude and rude. When he heard Qingyi's greeting, he said without looking back: "I'll forget it. Anyway, whether what I said is the truth or a lie, you guys

I don’t know. If I stop talking nonsense, you can save time and it’s a win-win situation.”



"Missing?"

Mero interjected: "This is a port city, so we probably left by boat."

Silla snorted coldly.



"Don't approach me casually." Silla said. This uncle has never relaxed for a moment since he entered the room, like a beast with explosive hair.



Silla had probably finished checking everything in the reception room, and went to the window to observe the weather: "There are undead creatures called the living dead, which can walk in the sun."

…………

No wonder, if Silla is a demon hunter, everything will be explained. Now that the profession has been determined, what is in the suitcase that Silla never leaves is ready to be revealed.

Noticing Qingyi's gaze resting on the suitcase, Silla squatted down and opened it. Sure enough, the box contained knives, daggers, folding crossbows and other weapons, as well as several bottles of potions that Qingyi subconsciously disliked. Demon Hunting

Human beings are a branch of the warrior profession. Since they are physics-based combat professionals, they do not have special abilities after all. They must use props to deal with supernatural monsters. For Silla, the suitcase is the safety device of his life.

"The vampire casts [Charm] by looking directly into her eyes. Suffering from the combined effects of psychological suggestion and spells, the maid actually fell into a deep hypnotic state. She could only complete simple instructions mechanically or recite the words poured into her mind.

Information. In other words, the maid is Wallace's mouthpiece, and will probably be disposed of after use."

"If Wallace were a vampire, both of them would be equally evil."

Silla let out a long breath and slumped her back slightly: "It's all my fault. If I had been honest from the beginning, I would have been able to use weapons without any scruples, and I would have been able to protect them."

"You are just being cautious." Qingyi tried his best to comfort the other party: "You act strictly according to the rules of the witcher, don't blame yourself too much. What should we do now? There are at least two vampires waiting for us."

Silla inserted the props into the lining of the coat one by one: "You are not waiting for us, you are waiting for me. Pinot Noir, they think you are dead, please leave quickly."

"Aren't we a cooperative relationship?"

After opening the magazine of the pistol and checking it under the light, Silla responded: "I don't want to be a burden to cooperate."

"Then you leave with me, wouldn't it be safer to wait until you find a helper to defeat the vampire?" Qingyi insisted on persuading Silla. This mission has a multi-branch ending, and it does not necessarily have to defeat the vampire. It is also considered to escape with the survivors.

If the task is successful, part of the reward can be settled.

"Perhaps Merlot and Chardonnay are not dead." Syrah stood up and put on his hat. At this time, he showed the magnanimity that he had gained through many battles, and his eyes were burning with fire.

Then Silla walked up to the third floor alone, with sonorous steps, announcing his arrival to the vampire.

Xue Duo stretched out from the shadow

He took action and squeezed the water out of Qingyi's clothes: "Host, won't you stop him?"

"I've said everything that needs to be said. Do you want me to break his legs?"

"Then you won't help him?"

"I am in a different camp from him, and it is not easy to explain to Anyan if I want to help." Qingyi walked to the terrace to admire the fountain: "Wow, this is really a work of art. I will never believe it if you say it is not a vampire design.

"

With the sound of explosions, breaking wind, cutting sounds, gunshots and screams coming from upstairs, the system prompts the belated arrival: entering the final chapter of the hidden mission "Mysterious Invitation" "Presentation".

System prompts: The wine is brewed and will finally be presented on the dining table; the secret has surfaced and will finally be presented in front of the guests. Go and learn the final truth. Whether the future is good or bad, you have to wait for you to witness it.

The rain outside has also stopped, which is quite fitting for the occasion.

Qingyi smoothed her wet bangs and walked up the steps to the third floor. What greeted her was a slightly surprised Wallace: "Pinot Noir, you're not dead?"

"I'm just too drunk." Qingyi said with a smile.

"Pinot Noir, you came at the right time. You are the ultimate survivor and have the right to know the truth."

Wallace restored his impeccable smile and led Qingyi to the banquet hall on the third floor, which was directly connected to the terrace and had a panoramic view of the garden. Unfortunately, the banquet hall that was supposed to be magnificent was now in a mess, and the furniture was staggered. In the banquet hall

Sitting there were four men and women dressed as celebrities but with blood on their bodies. When Qingyi appeared, except for the one who was too seriously injured to stand up, the other three people stood up and applauded enthusiastically. Their smiles were not false: "Welcome to the 'reception'.

"

"One was seriously injured and four were slightly injured? To achieve such a result at the enemy's home court, you are truly an outstanding demon hunter, Xila." Qingyi sighed.

Silla couldn't hear anymore. He was torn into pieces. For a vampire who prided himself on being elegant to use such rough methods, he must have severely injured the vampire. And Mello's body was also lying in the corner, with two wounds on his neck.

There were traces of blood remaining in the small holes. After all calculations, all three guests except Qingyi died. Logically speaking, the score of the mission would not be high.

While Qingyi was looking around, Wallace began to diligently explain the vampire's taboo game - the drinking party.

The venue is a vampire's mansion. The organizer rotates every period, and the organizer of this period is Wallace. According to the number of vampires attending the banquet, the organizer captures the corresponding number of humans. Let the living people take the "Blue Dream",

Then they lied to them that it was poison, and only the winner after killing each other could get the antidote.

Fighting causes humans to secrete adrenaline, which in turn increases body temperature and accelerates blood flow. In short, it cooks the blood. "Qingbi Dream" is a crucial seasoning that can give full play to the umami flavor of dishes.

Just like some diners in the human world like to watch celebrity chefs cooking face to face, vampires also like to watch how humans fight. When designing the mansion, the organizers prepared a large number of mezzanines and secret rooms, and added a single sided wall regardless of cost.

The mirror is disguised as a mirror so that vampires can watch the fight from all angles. In order to make the show more enjoyable, the organizers also rack their brains to stimulate human contradictions and promote conflicts.

When the killing is over, the vampires will treat the still warm corpse blood as a feast, and the winner will either be executed, or just have the blood from the wound licked away and be freed. If a vampire likes the winner very much, he will be invited.

Become your own family.

After listening, Qingyi clapped softly: "This is indeed a good pastime, both for you and me."

"After learning the truth, you can still chat and laugh with us. Are you a prince of some country?" Wallace walked towards Qingyi with a dagger in his left hand and a gold cup in his right hand.

Qingyi answered the question: "You only value blood, but you don't know that the most important thing is always the soul."
Chapter completed!
