When he heard the system prompts, Raymond knew that the owner of the castle was preparing to sacrifice himself as the last sacrifice.
At this moment, even though he was still conscious, he was surprised to find that his brain had completely cut off the connection with his body. Except that his senses were still there, he even thought that his body no longer existed.
He was crushed by the steps and couldn't move at all.
He watched helplessly as he was like a marionette, being overtaken by someone and slowly walked towards the last iron chair next to the Sombra table.
"I have heard of the name Mephistopheles. He is one of the revealed ultimate bosses in the Voyage game, the World Government Inquisition's Pope! But... the system prompts what the 'distraction' thing is.
Son? Is it possible that the person who controls the overall situation in the Hidden Moon Castle is not me, but his distraction?"
When Raymond thought about it, he thought it was possible.
Otherwise, even the vampire boss in his heyday might not be able to take advantage of a top-level boss, not to mention that he still seems to be using cunning tactics to achieve his goals.
Even if Raymond didn't know what the vampire's condition was, he could guess that it might not be optimistic.
"Vampire boss...if you don't come out, I'm going to kill you..."
For a long while, there was no movement at all.
Raymond's prayers were of no use at all, and he even wondered if he had been tricked by the vampire boss.
He just watched helplessly as he sat on the cold iron chair without any control over his body... The moment he sat firmly on his butt, a cold thorn stabbed directly from his back and pierced his heart.
It was like a water pipe was inserted, rapidly pumping blood from the body.
Fuck, I’m really going to die.
He felt that his consciousness was beginning to blur.
But at this moment, the system sound suddenly sounded again.
[Ding! Fatal damage is detected, ‘Vampire Three Generations’ is activated, you gain 10,000% life recovery (limited to 30 minutes), you gain life sharing...]
"I almost forgot about this..." Raymond felt happy for a moment, and then he sadly discovered that even with this red buff, the speed of his blood recovery still couldn't offset the speed of blood pumping.
.
However, fortunately, this altar does not draw unlimited amounts of blood. After roughly draining a person's blood, the rate of absorption drops significantly.
At the same time, the black crystal table in front of Raymond slowly lit up with a faint light, and it was obvious that the entire sacrificial ceremony had begun.
The seven corpses returned to their positions, and the ancient magic patterns in the direction of the seven chairs slowly lit up. Listening to the clicking sound of the mechanism, the heart of the Black Crystal Altar sank, and the target of the seal slowly rose.
It is a heart that is frozen!
"Heart? Still alive?
"Raymond looked a little surprised,
This is a heart that is obviously larger than an ordinary person's. It looks like it has been severely injured and riddled with holes.
What's even more bizarre is...it's actually still pulsating!
This living heart seems to have a super healing and repairing ability. Even if it is riddled with holes, it keeps healing and filling those holes. But... strangely, some arcs of light appear on its surface from time to time.
Then, new wounds were added again and again, never allowing the heart to heal completely.
Raymond looked at the system display with a hint of surprise.
The item name displays a row of words like this,
【The Broken Heart of Ralph D. Capone】!
"So that's what happened. The vampire boss's heart has been sealed here!"
The iron chair behind him has stopped sucking blood. Raymond is slowly recovering his blood, and his condition is getting better and better. He also roughly guesses why the Hidden Moon Castle exists...
It turns out that all arrangements are made around this heart.
Thinking about it, since the World Government can take out the vampire boss's heart and temporarily seal it here, it must know that Capone is still alive and must have the ability to kill him directly.
Instead of killing him now, there must be an ulterior motive for creating such a troublesome "sin sealing" ritual.
Maybe I guessed it right. The owner of this castle really planned to make the vampire boss into a puppet!
Tsk tsk...an immortal high-level vampire puppet with explosive combat power...
...
The magic lines on the table are very clear. It is obvious that the seal has reached a critical moment, and the ice covering the surface of the heart is gradually melting...
"Boss... it's time for you to show up. Otherwise, if the seal is completed later, you won't have a chance..."
When things reached this level, Raymond muttered in his heart, but he was no longer nervous as before.
He was also a little curious as to how the vampire boss would break in...
Break the ceiling and fall from the sky? Or move instantly and suddenly appear in front of you?
However, the big boss appeared in front of him in a way that he could not expect.
At this moment, Raymond heard the system prompt again.
[Ding! Data reversed, life sharing disappeared, specific stimulation detected, blood species stripped...]
Raymond hadn't understood the series of words yet, but at this moment, he vaguely felt like something was stirring somewhere on his shoulder... Then, he saw a white arm suddenly emerging from his shoulder.
Out...
"Fuck...I'm going to mutate? What's going on with this third hand?" Raymond's shock was not over yet. At this time, he looked at the blood mark on his shoulder that was the size of a gold coin. Not only did a line appear on it,
Arm, in the blink of an eye, a living person came out!
Transform into a living person?
Damn...this way of appearing...is a bit scary.
This situation seems a bit like Uncle Snake in a certain ninja...that disgusting guy can always get out of anywhere.
When Raymond saw clearly the appearance of this naked man emerging from the vampire, he immediately felt relieved.
finally come...
In front of me is a younger version of the vampire boss.
Capone looked at Raymond and smiled with disbelief: "I didn't expect that your boy actually persisted to the last stage. It really surprised me."
He knew that there would be many dangers in the Hidden Moon Castle tonight. He had originally arranged some other rescue plans, but he didn't expect that Raymond would actually clear the level on his own and open the seal directly.
"Tsk tsk... In that case, I will fulfill my promise and give you a little reward first..."
As he spoke, Capone's face suddenly elongated, his face turned black, and the blood-sucking fangs in his mouth grew out instantly.
"Kill and silence?" This was Raymond's only reaction when he watched the boss transform into a demon state.
Capone didn't mean to explain at all, he bit Raymond's neck directly, sucking blood with big mouthfuls.
At this moment, Raymond wanted to struggle, but found that he could not move, and the feeling of rapid blood loss in his body came again.
He originally thought that the vampire boss was going to burn the bridge, and he was about to curse with all his strength. But suddenly he felt a sudden change in his expression, and instantly felt another stream of cold blood pouring into his body.
Then, he heard the system prompt.
[Ding! You are receiving the ‘first embrace’ from the third-generation vampire ancestor, and your vampire bloodline is being transformed...]
"What? A vampire's first embrace?" Raymond changed from pessimism to surprise in an instant, naturally knowing what this meant.
Damn...this is an extremely powerful bloodline in the game!
There are two consequences of a vampire biting a person. The first is to suck the blood and die.
There is also bloodline inheritance! High-level vampires will suck the blood of the target and at the same time infuse and replace it with their own blood, transforming them into their own descendants.
After a while, the system prompt sounded again.
[Ding! The conversion is successful, you have obtained the special bloodline ‘Fourth Generation Vampire Bloodline lv1’. 】
"It's really developed this time!" Raymond was overjoyed when he saw the system prompt for confirmation!
Vampire blood is not uncommon in the game, but the level of blood is rare. Even if a novice player is lucky enough to obtain vampire blood, it will be at least ten generations later!
For example, now that Raymond has directly received the first support of the ancestor of the third generation of vampires and become the fourth generation of bloodline, it is simply an opportunity to drop gold bricks from the sky! You can't even think of it in the game!
[The fourth generation vampire bloodline lv1]
Potential points required for upgrade: 0/900
Advanced special bloodline
Health recovery 50%
Agile 8
Physical Defense 10
Poison Resistance 5
Power 6
Dark night adaptation 10
Transformation: [Demon Form] All attributes are 30%, injuries can be quickly recovered by sucking blood, and blood of different energy levels can gain adaptive recovery increased by 70%-1000%;
Detailed explanation: Powerful vampire bloodline, the damage received from Holy Light spells is increased by 350%, and an additional 100% damage is caused under the "demon mentality"; when traveling during the day, the bloodline's attributes increase by -35%; for each level of bloodline, the attributes adaptively increase by 55
%; The bloodline level can be improved through the vampire ancestor blood pool;
"These attributes and growth are really awesome..." Raymond watched his attribute panel suddenly increase a lot, and couldn't help but swallow a few mouthfuls of saliva.
Happiness came so suddenly that he couldn't believe it for a moment.
The enhancement of various attributes of the fourth generation vampire bloodline is extremely exaggerated. The only side effect of increased damage from the Holy Light system is almost negligible.
"In the game, I want to upgrade the blood quality of vampires to the fourth generation... It is not possible until at least the mid-to-late stage. It also requires spending a lot of resources and finding a suitable inheritance blood pool... I didn't expect that I actually got the first one after getting started.
Four generations of blood!”
The most important thing is...this special bloodline can still be upgraded through skill points!
Blood conversion is completed,
At this time, the vampire boss wiped away the blood from the corner of his mouth and said: "There will be a fierce battle next. I can't take care of you. You have to take care of yourself."
Upon hearing this, Raymond calmed down from his joy.
If the vampire bosses can treat him with such caution, the battle situation may be worse than expected.
...
Capone has appeared, and it is obvious that the owner of the castle will not ignore it anymore.
At this time,
The door of the banquet hall suddenly opened, and an old man with a white beard wearing a priest's robe slowly walked in.
He walked steadily and said as he walked: "Capone, I didn't expect you to show up in this way. It's really surprising..."
Raymond recognized this old man, the Pope of the World Government Inquisition, Mephisto Dres! One of the known ultimate bosses in the game!
Dres glanced at Raymond and said: "I originally guessed that the woman named Mary was a chess piece inserted... but I didn't expect it to be this little guy. Haha, I thought it would take a few more games.
I asked these guys to die cleanly, but I didn’t expect that he would end it early... Capone, the chess piece you selected is indeed extraordinary..."
After a pause, he looked at Capone again and said, "However, you dare not come here in your true form. Isn't it too delusional to get such a blood clone to come here and just want to take back your heart?"
When he saw the visitor, Capone felt like he was meeting an old friend and said with a smile: "If it were the old guy Dresse himself, I might be a little more wary. But you are just a wooden puppet with intelligence, tsk tsk."
...Not even close.”
Hearing this, Derleth looked a little unnatural and said: "Hmph! If I hadn't blocked the connection between here and there, the master would have sacrificed you into a 'puppet warrior' long ago. You still have a chance now."
Talk to me here?"
Capone sneered: "You useless puppet, don't you just take a fancy to my heart and want to make your puppet's body more perfect? Do you really think I don't know? Otherwise, you would have to go through so much trouble to do it."
Is this a sealing sacrifice?"
...
Raymond listened to the conversation between the two big guys and vaguely understood something.
It seems that Dres is just an impostor?
The old man in front of me is actually a wooden puppet that has its own intelligence?
He didn’t remember to think about it carefully before he came,
"Haha, you dirty vampire, what can you do if you know this? This is a place where the Holy Light shines, and you are not allowed to run wild! Now that you are here, don't even think about leaving!"
At this moment, Derleth seemed to have been stabbed in a painful spot. He raised the Holy Book of Light in his hand and started chanting.
At that moment, his whole body was filled with light, and then the hammer in his other hand became radiant, and the white light was dazzling and painful.
"A puppet is just a puppet...the methods are far different!"
At this moment, Capone sneered and disappeared instantly.
Like a cheetah, he ejected quickly, without dodging or avoiding, he just rushed over!
"Hmph! How naive! Have you forgotten how your body was seriously injured in the first place? You actually dared to resist the 'Hammer of Divine Light'..." Derleth was full of confidence. Even though Caponla was coming menacingly in front of him, he didn't.
A little afraid.
As long as this hammer is struck firmly, this vampire clone will definitely be annihilated in the holy light.
In the blink of an eye, the attack is coming.
"Bang!"
A solid blow,
A solid collision,
There was a muffled sound at the same time!
"Huh?!"
Derleth instantly showed a shocked look,
Why didn't I hear the screams or see the signs of the holy light burning?
How come the "Holy Light", which has been tried and tested against demonic creatures, has no effect at all on this vampire?
Capone received a solid blow, like a mosquito bite. It was neither painful nor itchy, and there was no sign of being corroded by the Holy Light as expected.
Instead, the moment he stopped, a huge force rushed into Derleth's body, knocking him away like a cannonball!
There was a loud "boom" sound.
The figure flew away and directly smashed a huge Roman column in the hall. Then Derleth's body rolled on the ground for dozens of times before hitting the corner and stopping... The hard granite floor was even more damaged due to the stress
Without the force of such a collision, it exploded all the way and turned into a mess in the blink of an eye.
"How is it possible?! How come my Holy Light spell has no effect?!"
Dres was horrified and climbed up from the ruins. He looked at the Holy Light Hammer in his hand, and then at Capone who was sneering opposite...
Suddenly his eyes turned, obviously realizing something, and he shouted in shock: "No... there is something wrong with your blood!"
He turned his head suddenly,
He glared at Raymond who was pretending to be dead on the chair.
