"But no matter what... this Midnight Son's combat enhancement is really outrageous." Chapter 8: The Approaching Light However, now is not the time to feel sentimental. The wonderful taste of drinking blood almost made him sink. Victor tried hard to keep himself awake and quickly recovered himself as much as possible. Then he threw the opponent's body to the ground, looked up at the night sky without hesitation, turned around and continued running. He could feel the disgusting aura still approaching rapidly. It must be said that Victor had to admit the strong tracking ability of these guys, as well as their firm belief in perseverance and extermination of heretics like him. You know, even though the original heavy rain had turned into a drizzle, it was enough to wash away all traces of escape, but even so, those people from the Holy Church were still able to hold on tightly... Well, of course, it was also thanks to the guy in front of him who died in his hands, constantly slowing down his pace. He had to leave, even though he was still one head short of his challenge mission. His remaining rationality was enough to tell him that he should stay out of the spotlight for the time being - even though all his attributes increased by more than 40%, he was no match for a group of suspected reserve agents. He had to keep moving forward. As long as there was no interference from the person before him, he would be able to quickly create distance and extend the pursuit line. When it comes to tracking, the farther you go, the more information you need to collect and the more errors you will make in judgment, so you have to expand the search and tracking range - even if the other party locks on you using unknown methods, that doesn't matter.
As long as the battle line is long enough, he doesn't believe that this group of people can stick together forever. They will gradually disperse - he can always find an opportunity. He is also very patient, because… the night has just arrived and is still long. "From this point of view, this challenge task doesn't seem to be that difficult." The corners of Victor's mouth curled up slightly, revealing a sneer. He casually added a few ability points to his agility, then glanced at the experience bar. "97 points. I only accumulated 51 experience points in the dungeon. That means, apart from the 20 points rewarded for the challenge target, I only gained 26 experience points by killing two equally powerful enemies?" "This is too stingy." Before in the copy, he killed almost all ordinary people, and they were similar to the relatively backward shogunate army. It would have been fine if they only gained a few points of experience, but this group of people were almost evenly matched with a vampire like him, and he only gained thirteen points after killing them? Hiss, do you have to be so strict?! Well, it's strict, but at least the upgrade will bring huge benefits. Victor tilted his head slightly and thought while running: "At least this way, I can successfully level up by killing one more hunter." Not only will your strength continue to increase, but you will also have an extra talent point - which can be used to unlock new functions. In the seven initial panels of the game system, he has unlocked characters, tasks and copies. What's left are maps, backpacks, skills and... the mall. Victor narrowed his eyes slightly. The mall... This is actually quite tempting, after all, the basic function of unlocking the mall is to enable purchase and recharge functions. He had seen the recharge function before. It did not require money from this world, but the so-called source quality. In other words, it required various mysterious things to be absorbed and converted into the corresponding currency - source crystal. The most interesting thing is that everyone's corpse can be transformed. Moreover, the higher the quality and the stronger the strength during life, the more source crystals can be transformed. Wow, they not only kill people but also burn their bodies, leaving no ashes behind. This game system is really... He likes villains.
The mall must be unlocked, because when this task is completed, he will have about 20 source crystals in his hand, and source crystals can be used to purchase talent points. 50 source crystals can be exchanged for 1 talent point. But it cannot be unlocked too early because he does not have enough talent points to unlock this purchase option. That’s right, this damn mall only had one random purchase option every month in the beginning besides recharge. Other options require additional talents. Victor was too lazy to complain about this. He just wanted to say that the planner of this game probably had no relatives. Therefore, in this case, the only function of the mall system seems to be to destroy the body, so its value is greatly discounted and has to be put on hold. The source crystal won’t disappear, right? As for the remaining three... Victor pulled his hair in pain. It’s hard to choose, folks. The map is an information collection tool. When you click on it fully, it will even tell you where there are explorations and branch tasks, and it can also display the enemy's position. It is definitely a magical tool. The backpack has an initial space of ten grids, no matter the size, it can be said to have spatial regularity. You don't have to worry about losing the things you put in it. It is a must-have artifact for home travel, murder and arson. Skills...Oh, to be honest, Victor is not very clear about this, after all, its introduction only says that the skill system will be opened. However, referring to the magical effects mentioned above, Victor always felt that this skill system might be unexpectedly awesome. "Ah, damn, I still have too few talent points. I hope that after I turn on the daily tasks, I can get a better task every day." As he thought of this, Victor's pace suddenly slowed down. The slightest trace of human habitation in the field of vision gradually disappeared, replaced by mountains, rivers, wilderness, and an increasingly difficult to sense atmosphere. almost. Victor thought to himself that if he kept running, he might really shake them off completely, and if he ran too far, the other party might give up chasing him. By then, the mission will be completed, but there will be a lack of a talent point, which is not acceptable. He turned around, looking at the depths behind him with a pair of cold and ruthless bloodshot eyes, ready to show his fangs and randomly select a lucky person. This desolate land. It is very suitable to be your grave. …… Croatia, in a forest outside a town, where Angus's body lies. Some young church members stood in the distance silently, looking at the slightly shriveled corpse. There was silence. In front of the corpse, the girl with a slightly frowned brow was laying down the shield behind her and praying devoutly for it. "...your soul will be purified in the flames and return to the arms of my Lord—" boom!
A blazing flame burst out from a knight's hand, setting the still young corpse of his former colleague on fire. This was to prevent the corpse, which had decent aptitude to begin with, from being reanimated after being bitten by a vampire and becoming a ghoul or the living dead. Although generally speaking, church members' bodies were engraved with many spells and would not be easily infected by the curse of vampires, for Liz, it was not wrong to be cautious. The flames were still burning and the purification ritual was still going on. Liz's brows furrowed more and more as she looked through the faint flames. "A magician who has transformed himself into a dead apostle... and a magician with high attainments in magic... It seems that the order given by the archbishop this time was not wrong." Liz sighed softly and looked back at the Knights standing upright behind her: "This kind of threat must be eliminated as soon as possible!" "Go all out!" "It's clear that our reservists... may be in danger." Chapter 9, Shadow "Dangerous... It is indeed somewhat dangerous." Under the moonlight obscured by dark clouds, a sneaky mouse quietly crawled out from the foot of the tree, sniffing around with its nimble nose as if looking for food. Not far ahead of it, a three-person search team was advancing rapidly. The backs of the three people were reflected on the mouse's retina, and thus appeared in Victor's eyes hundreds of meters away. This made him pinch his chin, his face full of confusion. "Aren't they said that agents like to act alone, or in pairs, with the old leading the new? What's wrong with you three? Really..." Even though he was a secret hunter and had the initiative, to be honest, he didn't have many choices. First of all, he was honored to have guessed correctly, that is, the other party seemed to have a means of tracking him directly. Although he didn't know what it was at the moment, this group of people obviously had a clear direction. Except for occasionally stopping to search for traces, they almost always moved in the correct direction, the route he had taken. This means that the other party hardly needs to conduct large-scale dispersed searches. Moreover, perhaps because he left in a hurry and left the body behind, although it slowed down the opponent's pace and forced them to leave some people behind to deal with the aftermath, it also made the church's pursuers aware of his strength, and thus became much more cautious, and even began to act in a group. After all, they are not stupid. It's just that since they are chasing and killing, there will inevitably be disconnection. After all, in a large group, some people run fast and some run slow. Those who run fast will naturally keep people. Chasing and killing, keeping talents is the most important thing. So generally speaking, the group that rushes to the front and is mainly responsible for keeping people away is often the fastest and the most scattered. Victor’s initial target is them, and only them. Pursuing too quickly and sticking together too closely would easily lead to Victor being surrounded and being discovered and forced to turn back. I knew that this so-called challenging task was not so easy to complete. Victor was a little confused. He actually wanted to be cautious, or rather, to be timid - after all, he felt that with his current strength, he could still fight against two people, but with three people... Victor has never liked taking risks. Reality is not a game, and he cannot afford to gamble his life on it. So he carefully compared the fighting power of both sides and concluded that if he launched a sneak attack, he would actually have a chance to kill one person in a short period of time to upgrade. But it is also easy to be held back, and once held back... when the enemy's reinforcements arrive, then considering the attitude of the Templar Church towards vampires, he probably really won't have any chance of survival. So Victor narrowed his eyes slightly, prepared to disconnect his magic power and leave. In fact, he had already successfully broken through. If he just ran away, as long as he was not unlucky enough to run into another encirclement, Victor felt that he would at least have no problem hiding.
Anyway, I've already made money. Challenge missions are triggered randomly, in other words, they have no cost... Although it is painful to miss a talent point, it is better than risking your life on it, right? In a game where you only have one life but can become infinitely stronger, staying alive is the only factor. Victor quickly convinced himself, but just as he was about to control his familiar to quietly leave and continue his escape, the leader of the three people in front of him suddenly paused and stopped. “I feel like someone is watching us.” A slightly low voice sounded in the empty night. His two companions were slightly stunned, and then immediately and decisively turned to the left and right at the same time, and their sharp eyes swept around. Discovered? Victor subconsciously held his breath and tightened his control over his familiar. The mouse, which was originally sniffing around, suddenly froze in place like a stone statue. The rain was still falling, especially shortly after nightfall, when there was not even the silver glow of the moon, and a dark color cast a hazy shadow around everything. Magic power filled their eyes, and the three church members looked around silently, but they only saw a few lonely trees swaying in the wind and rain in the empty valley, like the waving tentacles of an ancient god. "Nothing unusual." Soon, a whisper was heard from among the three. But after just saying this one sentence, the three of them fell into a strange silence. After a long while, about two or three seconds, the other person whispered, "You and I both know that Snow's sixth sense cannot be wrong." Revelation is a very powerful and rare gift. It is said that the highest level of divine revelation can see through the truth, falsehood, past, and even fragments of the future, and can even reach the point of listening to the words of God and conveying oracles. Of course, so far, the only person who is said to possess this ability is the current Pope, while ordinary people with ordinary qualifications are often not able to be that strong. The most they have is an extraordinary sixth sense... and occasionally, inexplicable images flash before their eyes. These images often represent some things, but they are vague, obscure and difficult to understand. If you are a destined person, what you see may be revelations of the future or guidance from fate. If you are an ordinary person, what you see are more details that you subconsciously ignore, or even some key clues. And since he had revelation, regardless of its level, it in itself represented that he had obtained the Lord's sight and grace - this made Victor's heart sink, no wonder. No wonder he could track me so easily... Turns out he was a believer with revelation. I just don't know how high the level is. If it's too high... Victor's murderous intent grew stronger. You know, with a high-level revelation, even if he escaped to the ends of the earth, as long as this guy still wanted to find him, maybe one day, the image of Victor's place would flash before his eyes - being remembered by such a person is a very scary thing. However, revelation is not unconfrontable. Low-level mysteries cannot resist or touch higher-level mysteries. Even the power of fate is sometimes unable to peek into the veil of mystery. As long as you strengthen your own mystery, you will be isolated from the prying and interference of this power. It’s a pity that my mystery is still too low. Victor thought so, and at the same time, the last of the three, the guy with revelation, finally made a sound. Obviously, his silence just now was because he saw part of the scene. The other two people's tacit silence and low conversation were also due to this. This made Victor curious. What did the other party see?
Is this really his position? However, the other party just suddenly opened his eyes and said in a slightly horrified and hoarse voice: "Shadow... filth..." "What?" The other two, as well as Victor who was several hundred meters away, were slightly stunned. The other party shook his head without hesitation and said seriously: "Don't ask why, Zach, you turn around immediately and ask the people behind you to report and ask for help immediately. This is no longer an incident that we reserve personnel can handle..." "Wait a minute, Snow, I understand what you mean, but you have to at least tell me a reason, so I can go back and tell the Archbishop what you saw that made you so panicked."
