Blood of Mercury

Chapter 38: Undead

Roland went all the way up to the third floor, and he was relieved when he saw that no one was following with his peripheral vision.

It seems that there is no leak.

He had never been so grateful for Caral's policy of ignorance. From the street to the mule hotel, if those foolish people had even a little bit of common sense, the blighter played by Roland would be completely exposed.

Just as Claude thought at the beginning in the trace of no light - it is impossible for the blighted to use natural magic.

The way of the blighter's job transfer is somewhat similar to that of a dark wizard's job as a corpse witch. He needs to completely pollute his natural heart with negative energy mixed with impurities until it withers and withers.

This is a ritual to gain power, but it is also a limitation.

Once the heart of nature of the blighter is polluted, there is no turning back. There is no way to restore the withered heart of nature.

Therefore, no matter how far the blighter walks on this road, it is impossible for him to become a great druid, and he can only live in the shadows all his life. In other words, the withered person cannot get any job transfer or promotion in the Druid profession - this is an alternative advancement. The reason why the withered person is powerful is that in addition to the restraint of negative energy on the living, another One reason is that they converted all their druid class classes into blighters.

However, being unable to become an arch druid means that he cannot gain any real power within the Druid sect.

There is no way to contact the Father of Gaia without the class level of the Arch Druid. Without the ability to turn knowledge into power and predict the future, a druid is just an ordinary gardener.

Not to mention becoming the three patriarchs, it is impossible to join the Council of Sages, and even the ability to contact nature has been abolished - unlike ordinary druids, the natural heart of the blighter is not opened, and the professional characteristics are also It has become the [Withered Heart of Nature], and the natural affection for natural life has turned into a natural fear, and all the previous divine arts will become the corresponding withered versions.

Like the entanglement technique, no matter what the surname of the druid, it is nothing more than emerald green, withered yellow and dark green. But the vines of the withered ones are jet-black vines mixed with gray traces. It's like being scorched by fire.

Any life hit by Blight and Coil will suffer a check based on physical attributes every second. Once the check fails, the life force of the subject will be evaporated out of thin air. In reality, the evaporation of this vitality means that people will become older and weaker. If the priests of the silver rank are not blessed to remove this vicious curse, then the evaporation of this vitality is equal to permanent.

Like just now, Roland strangled the passing middle-aged man with vines or interrupted the boss's hand—if he was really a blighter, then there would be burnt black marks where his vines were entangled.

If Roland guessed correctly, after the guards checked and reported it to Farina, the woman would immediately realize that there was something wrong with Roland's identity.

From the appearance of the body to the completion of the autopsy by the guards, and then to the oak hut to report to Farina, this process took half an hour.

In other words, Roland only had half an hour to get the job-changing props from the foreigner's priest.

The biggest problem was that Roland didn't even know what form the prop existed in.

In Roland's time, the method of transferring the death crow has become safe and effective - a professional who wants to become a death crow, after completing the preparatory tasks, the last step is to replace the blood of the whole body with mercury .

Therefore, it is necessary for the mentor, the death crow, to personally numb the heart of his apprentice, and then use the hands of the psychic to take out the chest cavity, and then use the blood to dry up the whole body's blood, and finally pour it directly into the mercury, and then put the The heart is put back in to restore the heartbeat.

Although it is quite dangerous, the whole process is simple and orderly, and no job-changing props are used.

Roland's understanding of Farina is limited.

In the game, he did not do any tasks related to Farina. It's just that Roland got a diary from her after leading the team to overthrow Farina, the black crow witch, and when he turned to this page, he got the system prompt "You have obtained information about the death of the crow." Information about job tools”.

At that time, because players couldn't change jobs and sue the dead crow, they didn't know the name of this job. Farina also only refers to "the apostle who manipulates the plague" in the diary. The most hateful thing is that she did not point out what the thing looked like, what effect it had, and where it was placed.

The only thing Roland knew was that the thing must belong to this stranger.

——If he doesn't give it, then grab it.

Thinking of this, Roland just happened to walk to the door of that stranger. So he no longer hesitated, pushed the door and walked in.

The first thing that caught his eye was a decayed and pale face. About seventeen or eighteen years old, he still looks very young, but his hair is dry and yellow. He was wearing tattered clothes and had a faint but real stench.

The stench is not the kind of stench that people in some areas accumulate because they haven't bathed for a long time. Rather, it's somewhat similar to the feeling of rotting frozen meat in the refrigerator.

Seeing Roland push the door and come in, the man turned his head sharply, a trace of ferocity flashing in his eyes.

But when he saw the clothes on the person who came, he was suddenly shocked, and his fierceness turned into timidity, and his small eyes that gave the feeling of a rodent began to scan the surroundings very quickly.

"Don't look at it, you can't run away."

A cold and hoarse voice came from under the black robe, like an echo from the land of the dead.

The pale-faced young man turned his eyes around, and the jet-black pupils were gradually dyed with a hint of bright red.

"Do you know who you're talking to, Blighter?"

Not to be outdone, his voice was full of hoarse whimpers, giving the impression of the whispers of the dead.

Or, it was the whispers of the dead.

"Am I not talking to a shadow long dead, undead?"

In response to the same sentence pattern, Roland's tone was full of malice.

The moment he saw his appearance, Roland thought it was his illusion. But when he smelled that corpse stench, he knew that he was not wrong.

This must be the undead. The undead from Elkat, Druid's hometown.

And... a treasonous undead.

After that war, Elkat, who was defeated but could not be destroyed, was called the country of decay. The country protected by the gods refused to provide it with any trade, so hundreds of years later, it has even been forgotten by most people, and today, many people think that Elcate is just a legend.

But Roland knew that it was not a legend.

The undead pirates of Elcatel still appear in the East China Sea as a living legend.

Before the return of their new king, this group of decaying undead had no glory or discipline to speak of, and they were unafraid of everything, giving people complete despair like a moving natural disaster.

With their firm will and determination, they gave up reincarnation and eternal silence, woke up in the endless darkness, left the country of the dead unswervingly, and never returned.

In the beginning, the birth of the undead was not for the greed of eternal life, but for the obsession of defending the faith.

After the first group of gods stole the authority of the saints, the golden race who remembered the glory of the saints left in anger and went to their own half-planes, or simply went to the outer domain through the wall of Gaia , plunged into the never-ending war with the Legion of Twilight.

The race with silver blood was divided into two parts, one part succumbed to the so-called "gods" and became their first group of believers; the other part firmly fought the former to the death.

However, after death, the spirits of believers and other silver races no longer go to the kingdom of the dead, but escaped reincarnation and entered the kingdom of the gods, gaining immortality in another sense. When their projections once again came from the lower realm of the kingdom of God, their enemies desperately found that this was an impossible war to win.

At that time, Duide, who believed in the father of Gaia, found another way to escape from reincarnation from a part of the inheritance of the dormant teacher. As long as a similar ceremony is held, it can transform itself into a life form similar to the death crow.

They call this form the undead.

Unlike those silver races who believe in gods, the rebirth of the undead requires a heavy price. Once reincarnated as an undead, it means that there is no way to return to the kingdom of the dead, and there will be no rest for eternity - not to describe, but to be true.

Even if it is cut into minced meat~www.NovelMTL.com~ Every small piece of minced meat still has its own feeling. Even if it rots into slag, each **** still maintains a sensitive feeling. If the eternal stagnation of the mind is the definition of death, then the undead are immortal and cannot be killed in any way.

Even if he was hammered into flesh and burned into ashes, his consciousness would still stay on the dead land. And will eventually be resurrected as a clay doll.

This is not a kind of luck, but a kind of misfortune.

In the days when they could never end their longevity—while their bodies were still rotting uncontrollably, their once noble souls quickly withered and withered, and in the end, they even forgot their original glory.

In order to find something to do for themselves, some fallen undead even began to believe in some evil gods, which went against their initial wishes.

For example, the undead in front of him. He is a typical undead who believes in the **** of decay and disease, so that they can give up the maintenance of their bodies and choose to let them naturally decay.

Because he can't die at all, so he can't get eternal life from the kingdom of gods. In other words, it is simply white labor for the gods—the deadline is forever.

The moment he recognized his identity, Roland gave up the idea of ​​negotiating with him.

Like this extremely cheap existence, Roland didn't think it was necessary to communicate with him.

"Your soul will wither along with your decaying body—"

Hearing Roland whisper, two emerald green vines emerged from under the black robe with silver-gray patterns.

But at this time, a trace of sarcasm mixed with astonishment flashed in the eyes of the undead priest~www.NovelMTL.com~ Welcome to reading, the latest, fastest and hottest serial works are all at~www.NovelMTL.com. com~. ;
