Naturally, the movement on the other side of the black crystal table cannot be hidden from the owner of this castle.
this moment,
Derleth's smile immediately solidified on his face.
...
Mary also looked stunned.
She watched as the other hand touched the heart a moment before her own.
Then, the ray of arc that shot out suddenly ran up the arm and disappeared.
There was no expected scene of being wiped out in ashes, as if it had been absorbed, and there was no trace of the arc of light at all.
"you you..."
Mary looked up at the pale Raymond, shocked and speechless.
What on earth did this guy just do?
Even though she didn't understand what exactly happened, she realized that Raymond seemed to have rushed to do what he risked his life to do... He introduced that terrifying arc of light into his body.
Is this why he is so determined to repay Lord Capone?
Mary even had a beautiful misunderstanding. Could it be that this guy was really desperate for his life and did such an irrational behavior for his own sake?
But... the most important thing is, why did he not get hurt at all when he touched the arc of light?
At this time,
Raymond looked at Mary with an innocent expression on his face, and put on a smile that was uglier than crying, "I'm out of strength...can you take me with you when you leave?"
He sounded weak, as if he was suffering from severe kidney failure.
Seeing his cowardly arrangement, Mary couldn't laugh or cry.
Obviously, I just thought too much,
There is no way this guy who is greedy for life and afraid of death can be so righteous.
...
The screen plays back to five seconds ago,
Start with that system prompt.
[Ding! I discovered the pure ‘power of god’, do you want to strip it off? 】
【yes!】
Out of curiosity, Raymond confirmed directly.
But the next moment, he was horrified to find that his hand was out of control. It was like a strong magnet attracting iron, and his whole body was directly sucked towards the heart.
Damn it... I cursed in my heart.
He was also worried that he would be wiped out in ashes. If nothing happened, he would be blown away by high-voltage electricity like Mary before.
Unexpectedly, nothing happened.
There was a slight numbness, as if a static electricity rushed into the arm, and it disappeared in a flash.
[Ding! You used the 'dead soul stripping' skill, stripping and absorbing a trace of 'pure power of God', potential point 1000, soul strength 1000;]
[Ding! Your strength is not enough to fully absorb the energy brought by the 'Power of God'. You are in a weak state, with all attributes -90%, lasting for 72 hours. 】
"What the hell...a ray of light arc adds a thousand potential points?" Raymond looked a little confused, and then he was surprised. This light arc actually has such a miraculous effect?!
Raymond felt as if he had found a treasure, but this weak state made him lose strength in an instant, and he almost lost his balance.
One wisp can increase a family's potential points by a thousand points. What if there were more, and the skill level wouldn't go up all of a sudden?
But then he calmed down and knew that this possibility was unlikely. Because even in the middle and late stages of the game, he had never heard of what this "god's power" was. It should be some ultimate power system.
set up.
This kind of thing must be encountered but cannot be sought.
However, this stripping also allowed his A-level skill "Redead Soul Stripping", which he thought was useless, to find a new use.
Perhaps, some other special energies can be stripped away in the future?
It is indeed unusual for an important spell to be recorded separately in "Haines Death Note".
...
"How could such a weak supernatural being make the 'power of god' disappear... Stop it!"
"Mary, take your heart and leave with him quickly!"
At this time, Dres wanted to stop him, but Capone couldn't make him do it. The two fought hand to hand again, and the fighting was several times more fierce than before!
Bang! Bang! Bang!
After several more collisions, the entire hall became a mess.
A battle of this level indoors will directly bring devastating consequences. I am afraid that if it happens a few more times, the entire floor will be completely destroyed.
"Tsk, tsk... I never thought that the heir of Heins could absorb the power of God... So, if this plan succeeds, my body may be fully recovered without so much trouble."
The situation took a sudden turn, and Capone's eyes flashed with excitement.
The state of mind that had remained calm for many years suddenly started to surge.
The moment he saw the "Power of God", he was already disheartened, and his heart failed... He didn't expect that the sage actually had a chance to make a comeback!
Raymond indeed brought him too many surprises... It is conceivable that if he did not replace the previous chess piece during this trip to the Hidden Moon Castle, no matter how successful the plan was, it was destined to end in failure.
.
The trap of "God's Power" is a dead end!
"This kid...is really surprising..."
Capone did not expect that Raymond, a weakling with only Sequence 9, not only broke through the blood curse conspiracy in advance, but also broke into the final stage of the seal alone, allowing himself to replace the blood without fear of the Holy Light Hammer... and even
, he also magically dissolved the "power of God"...
It can be said that this "Hidden Moon Castle" plan will affect the final success or failure... Raymond accidentally became the most crucial link!
...
the other side,
"Yes, sir!"
When Mary heard Capone's order, she didn't dare to delay at all. She directly carried Raymond on her shoulders with one hand, grabbed his heart with the other, and ran straight to the gate...
Seeing this, Derleth's face changed drastically and he screamed: "Don't even think about taking away my heart!"
He was entangled by Capone and couldn't escape, but he grabbed hold of it with his fingers, as if he had grabbed an invisible puppet thread...
At this moment, the corpse puppets in the entire hall suddenly came to life!
At this moment, hundreds of maids changed from their previous delicate and docile attitude, and suddenly turned into terrifying corpse puppets with ferocious faces and fast movements. They swarmed in and jumped several feet, trying to stop the two escaping Raymonds.
However, how powerful Mary is in her demonic state at this moment. Vampires are originally of a special bloodline that is good at agility and strength. She is running with all her strength. How can the speed of these corpse puppets be matched?
Even if there are one or two corpse bosses blocking the way, they can be kicked to pieces in an instant and the pieces of flesh will fly everywhere.
Mary, who was running wildly, yelled, "Hold tight! Let's rush out!"
"Okay!" Raymond didn't dare to be careless. If he let go and fell into the pile of corpses at this moment, he would definitely be torn into pieces.
He lay on her shoulders and used the last bit of strength in his body to hold on tightly. But now that Mary was completely naked, there was no way to exert any strength... In order to prevent himself from falling in the trembling of the fierce running, he
He could only squeeze his legs tightly around Mary's slender waist, fitting her tightly like a koala.
At this time, dignity, image, etc. are all gone, life is at stake!
"Click"!
Hearing the granite floor cracking, Mary kicked her legs and jumped, a strong wind passed by, and figures flashed past.
"So strong! Is this the true strength of a vampire..."
Raymond was shocked and was almost torn off by the huge push.
"Although the skin of the body in the devil's state is still flexible, the degree of hardening is also very obvious..."
When he touched Mary's skin, it was like cold leather, and it didn't feel very good. Even though she was naked, her state didn't make people see much of her charm and allure. Instead, the muscles all over her body showed the smooth beauty of overwhelming strength.
It gives people an extraordinary visual impact.
...
Outside the hall door is not the exit of the castle, but a deep corridor.
Raymond had long known that they should be in an underground building under the castle at the moment. If they wanted to escape, they had to find a way up.
He was originally worried that he might encounter an agency because he was not familiar with the roads here, but he didn't expect that Mary seemed to be well prepared.
"Hold tight!"
At this time, Mary was in a hurry again.
She broke through the door, but instead of walking along the corridor, she smashed a thin iron plate and broke into another secret passage.
Before Raymond could react, he was knocked to pieces.
He looked at the iron wall that looked like it had been blown apart by a directional blast, and his face was twitching badly...
Transformed into a vampire, so fierce.
...
In this way, Mary carried Raymond and ran for a while,
No more footsteps were heard from behind, and it seemed that no pursuers were following.
After a few minutes of intense pursuit, he finally calmed down.
At this moment,
Raymond suddenly felt that the figure surrounding Mary was slowly getting smaller, the skin suddenly became softer, and the color of the skin gradually returned from dark blue to the normal rosy color.
Looking at her face again, the blood-sucking fangs were retracted, the crystal eyes were shining, and she had returned to the delicate and beautiful face before.
Shockingly, he has exited the state of transforming into a demon.
"Are you out of trouble temporarily..."
Raymond probably guessed that the corpse puppet had no mouth, so he suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.
When he came back to his senses, he suddenly felt something was wrong.
He looked down and found to his embarrassment that his hand had nowhere to put it...
Mary in her demonic state was so strong that she could be treated as a monster, and Raymond held her without any distractions.
But now... I am being carried on the shoulders of a delicate naked lady, and no matter how I look at it, I feel that the picture is not very harmonious.
Even after she returned to her human form and her speed dropped significantly, Mary's running speed was still like a 100-meter sprint.
If Raymond dared to let go even a little bit, he would be afraid of being knocked down.
At this moment, their skins were touching, and their body temperatures were coexisting with each other.
The exclusive scent of a charming woman flowed into Raymond's nose, making him feel a little distracted.
"Hey, hey, hey...you brat, you are still thinking wildly at this time, do you want me to leave you here?"
Mary seemed to notice something strange and cursed.
"Uh...I...I..."
"Hold tight!"
"oh."
"..."
Raymond was also quite helpless and quickly changed the topic and asked: "Mary, you seem to be very familiar with this castle?"
"Um!"
A charming smile appeared on the corner of Mary's mouth, and she didn't really mind. She followed the topic and said, "I stayed here for a while."
"Huh?"
When Raymond thought about the story of the Hidden Moon Castle, he suddenly thought of something and said, "Could it be that the earl who died decades ago was..."
"yes!"
Mary didn't know what she thought of, and a complex light appeared in her crystal eyes. The best memory of her life had been left here.
Only then did Raymond realize that this was the mansion of the count who wanted to marry Mary but instead married her evil sister?
No wonder Mary is so familiar with the structure here and knows the secret escape passages in the mansion.
Damn it... Put it this way, is this delicate lady under her really an old monster with an ageless appearance?
But it makes sense to think about it, vampires seem to have a passive buff, which makes them look ageless.
...
Raymond thought they could escape through this secret passage.
But suddenly, something happened!
"Be careful, there is an ambush!"
At this moment, Mary suddenly stopped.
Raymond looked back and saw hundreds of densely packed puppets blocking the end of the passage, blocking the way out.
He muttered in his mind, "Hey...are these mechanical wooden puppets the scary puppets in the castle that the players in the game said?"
These are real wooden puppets in front of them. Their joints are stiff and their heads have no carved facial features. They look very strange. Their arms have no palms, but sharp knives.
Obviously, this group of puppets looks much more powerful than the corpse puppets in the hall before.
"I'm going to rush!"
Mary's pupils shrank, and she didn't mean to put Raymond down. Instead, she accelerated towards the pile of puppets!
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Only then did Raymond realize that Mary's melee ability was so terrifying. She inherited the powerful power talent of the vampire system. With one kick and one knee, she would definitely kick the wooden puppet to pieces!
With this rush, the broken limbs of the wooden puppet were scattered over a large area.
"Eh...that's not right, how can these wooden puppets be so weak..."
Raymond looked at the broken wooden puppet limbs on the ground and suddenly felt something was wrong.
It stands to reason that this level of puppets alone cannot stop the player army from clearing them out. Why did all the land reclamation players die in the first place...
At this moment, he looked at the broken puppet stump on the ground and suddenly moved, as if it was pulled by an invisible thread, and immediately came back to life!
"Mary, be careful, these wooden puppets can automatically reorganize themselves!" Raymond exclaimed.
Only then did he discover to his surprise that the dozen or so wooden puppets that Mary had smashed when she rushed in had been successfully reorganized in the blink of an eye and stood up intact.
Now being attacked from both sides, Mary and the two were immediately surrounded by puppets, unable to advance or retreat!
"This is trouble... It turns out that the power of these puppets is that they can be constantly reorganized..." Raymond's face became a little ugly.
This situation is a bit like an undead boss that can infinitely resurrect mobs. If you don't kill the boss, you won't be able to defeat all the mobs no matter how hard you defeat it.
"Hold on, I'll rush out!"
Mary naturally knew that fighting with these puppets would be fruitless, not to mention that they had to escape from the castle as soon as possible.
As soon as she finished speaking, her figure suddenly grew taller and she instantly entered the devilish state again!
Raymond frowned as he looked at Mary who was desperately trying to break through.
The demonic state can indeed improve a lot of attributes, but if there is no fresh blood to absorb later, frequent transformations will cause irreversible damage to the foundation.
But now it seems there is no other way...
There are so many puppets in this narrow passage that it is impossible to defeat them all.
Although Mary transformed into a demonic state, she gradually became somewhat powerless.
Moreover, even if she smashed a puppet with force, instead of reducing the pressure, it actually made the situation a little more difficult. Because those stumps and broken arms that fell on the ground could actually attack independently, making it difficult for people to guard against it!
The two of them were like entering a meat grinder, with sharp knives stabbing them from all directions, making it impossible to escape.
Even though Mary was very skilled and could dodge nimbly, the two of them were stabbed all over their bodies.
The recovery ability of vampires is indeed very strong, but if they don't break through the siege, these small wounds will kill them sooner or later!
As time went by, Mary's physical energy was depleted very quickly, and the situation became increasingly unfavorable for them.
Not only did this forced invasion fail to break out of the siege, but the puppets around him were beaten more and more.
“There’s no way we can kill all these puppets!”
Mary gasped solemnly, and naturally discovered the dilemma.
She said hurriedly: "It's not your idea, please think of a solution!"
In her opinion, there must be something extraordinary about Raymond being chosen by Capone. Although this guy is a bit greedy and lustful, in terms of wit and calmness, he is definitely far superior to ordinary people.
"There's nothing you can do, I have a stupid idea..."
Just when Raymond was about to complain, he suddenly heard the system prompt and his face lit up with joy!
