"Heart's Blood of Roman Royalty..."
Touching his chest, Bai Zhou thought suspiciously:
"Golden Beans is this kind of thing?"
The puzzle lies within the puzzle.
If you want to complete Last Will from Wolf Knight Statue, the key obviously lies in the blood of Rome.
Originally, facing the statue, Last Will, Bai Zhou was still muttering in his mind, wondering where he was going to find such a thing.
But at this moment.
Golden Beans's chest, which only Bai Zhou could see, hummed in response to Bai Zhou's thoughts.
It's like saying, "I can do it, I'll do it!"
This made Bai Zhou feel confused, and at the same time, he felt like he suddenly understood.
Yes...Crown of Thorns is Crown of Empress Irene.
--Empress Irene, isn't she the empress of the Eastern Roman Empire?
This matter is also recorded in <Black Cat Naughty Eight Thousand Questions>,
Although she was riding a spinning wheel, Cotton-Fluffing Song, and starved to death in the end... but it did not affect the fact that she was once the great emperor of Rome.
It was also because of <Black Cat Naughty Eight Thousand Questions> that Bai Zhou knew for the first time that he had had a misplaced conversation with Crow before.
Jurassic, not Jurassic!
Golden Pass leads to Jurassic. There are no reptiles that can pinch Ritual Hand Seal with their claws.
It's not that there was no primitive era of human beings, but a...
I'm afraid it's a civilizational era highly related to "Rome"!
Kill Luo, kill Luo--the one who was killed was not Rome, could it still be Romeo from the fairy tale?
As Mysterious Crown left behind by Irina, maybe the Crimson Blood Droplets dripping on it is the blood of Irina himself?
"..."
Try it?
Thinking about it, Bai Zhou picked out one of the many Golden Beanss in his arms, held it in his palm, and thought about how to use it.
"Pilgrim, you can think about this slowly."
Seeing that Bai Zhou didn't respond for a while, Wolf Knight Statue thought Bai Zhou was hesitating.
In the grand carols, Wolf Knight Statue said:
"Please make your final choice carefully."
"Once you make a decision, you won't have the chance to go back on it."
Hearing this, Bai Zhou shook his head.
He gave his final answer:
"[Adventurer]'s test is nothing if not risky enough."
"Since you only have this one chance, there is no reason to enter Baoshan and return empty-handed."
"So, please tell me..."
"How can I participate in Hall Entry Assessment?"
Prudence is an essential quality for [Adventurer].
But Greed is the essential reason why [Adventurer] is [Adventurer].
Coincidentally, the moment when the voice of Bai Zhou fell.
The carols above my head seemed to have reached the climax of the song.
The climactic ballads surround me in all directions, with a cheerful rhythm, but the more I listen to them, the more sad I feel.
"Rumble..."
A series of explosions suddenly filled the air.
Following the voice, Bai Zhou looked up and immediately felt his scalp numb.
The Monster that sang a song and was named "Great Sacrifice" seemed to be stretching above its head.
This allowed Bai Zhou to finally see its... whole picture except for its hands and eyes.
Red!
The first impression you see is a deep red color!
Solitary red! Red that smells like blood!
The ugly scarlet face was completely necrotic, leaving only two dull and moving eyes and fresh red flesh, which turned into dense flesh and blood that squirmed in the wind Flesh Buds.
There was a blood-red halo above her head, which was blasphemous and evil. One look at it and she saw Sea of Corpses and Blood in a trance.
Her back was unusually straight and straight, but also a little unnaturally rickety, as if she was carrying some invisible weight.
On the downward part of her neck, a large area of skin showed a translucent swollen texture, and under the swollen skin, Ghost Green and something purple could be vaguely seen.
They are like viscous liquid, slowly flowing and swelling in it.
"Plop! Plop!"
Occasionally, the swollen parts will beat a few times, as if the green-purple liquid is about to burst.
But then, the blood ring growing on Monster's head will flow down a few strands of Red Light, binding back the liquid that is about to explode.
... It is like a hotbed of disaster.
On the endless ruins, the inhuman Monster seems to be pregnant with something extremely terrifying and unknown, but it is only bound by a seal.
"What the hell is it..."
Bai Zhou's voice is dry, and there is reason to suspect that the destruction of this civilization is related to it.
Looking down, he saw again...
The lower body of Monster is more ferocious than the upper body of Disaster Hotbed, like a war machine, so ugly that no one can look directly at it.
Bai Zhou Suddenly thought of creatures like beetles or turtles, because their entire lower body is made of this kind of "shell".
The twisted, charred metal is densely intertwined, dotted with some green and purple crystals, and finally all the metal is inseparably gathered together with the flesh and blood of Monster.
Disgusting.
After just a cursory inspection, Bai Zhou's brain seemed to have stopped spinning and was silently infected by a cold red color.
"Red red red red red!"
"Dizzy!"
"Cold cold cold cold cold!"
"..."
Hearing each other's singing will not hurt you.
But seeing the other party's full face caused considerable mental pollution to Bai Zhou.
Fortunately, Bai Zhou has been prepared for this, and will activate the [Soothing] character in Sea of Ignorance as soon as possible...
But in the next moment.
"Buzz!"
In the Divine Hall, something vibrated and made a sound, and there was a crisp sound.
As if the sheep met a wolf, the "unknown red" that infected Bai Zhou immediately spread everywhere.
Bai Zhou looked closely and found that the broken lance in Wolf Knight's hand was ringing.
"Huh..."
Taking a long breath, Bai Zhou was still in shock, thinking about what this hideous Monster was trying to do on top of the Divine Hall's head.
He wanted to come in but didn't come in, he just peeked at everything inside the Divine Hall with "malintention".
Is there anything in the Divine Hall that it covets and is afraid of?
Or is it actually Fierce Beast that was sealed and raised by the Divine Hall?
In adventure stories, it seems that you can always see the temple-guarding beasts guarding treasures.
Generally, this kind of Monster is incredibly powerful, but the benefits you can get after defeating it are enough for Adventurer to pass the level to the final demon king.
"Pilgrim, made the choice Hall Entry Assessment."
The cold mechanical voice didn't know who it was reporting to:
"Then... the assessment begins."
After the words fell, Bai Zhou concentrated and held his breath, but nothing happened around him.
"..."
The song "Great Sacrifice" still surrounds the surroundings. There are no teleportation beams, wall cages or hungry beasts descending from the sky.
"But, what is the content of the assessment?"
Bai Zhou asked Wolf Knight Statue attentively.
And as an answer to Bai Zhou's question.
"Crack--!"
Suddenly, the crisp sound of falling stones could be heard in my ears.
Then there was a huge roar.
As a lot of gravel fell to the ground, Wolf Knight Statue was half-kneeling on the ground. Under Bai Zhou's slightly dazed gaze, he slowly stood up.
The tall and majestic body, about three meters tall, casts a long shadow on the ground.
It still had a cold mechanical voice, but it suddenly spoke much more fluently, as if it had unlocked a higher level of intelligence due to the assessment:
"I appreciate your courage, but your ability still needs to be tested."
"Hall Entry Assessment, there are two levels."
"This is the place where the first test is held."
"--It's also the easiest level."
Said.
The broken lance slammed across Stone Statue Wolf Knight's chest.
Obviously only half of the spear tip is left, and it is uneven, but it exudes an edge that is more terrifying than any complete extraordinary weapon!
It said:
"A battle at the same level."
"The assessment content is to survive from my gun!"
Bai Zhou:"?"
Wolf Knight The moment the words fell.
"Buzz!"
The gunfire rang out again.
There was no warning, no announcement, the sound of stone boots crushing the ground exploded.
The moment Blackstone cracked the floor tiles on the ground, a dark afterimage passed through the air, and the broken lance tore through the air and flew towards it with a scream.
"Clang!"
Bai Zhou draws his sword to block.
The purple-gold blade lifted up boldly and collided with the broken gun slit.
Sparks shot out and exploded, instantly illuminating the faces of the two people.
But Bai Zhou's face changed immediately, and he felt a steady stream of 27-fold back-up force from the opponent's Gun Blade.
The force also increased with the tide, overwhelming the sky as if the sky were pouring down!
This is...
"<Basic Nine Slashes>!"
Bai Zhou shouted softly.
This all too familiar feeling is clearly used by the other party <Basic Nine Slashes>First Three Forms!
Because Bai Zhou used a knife, what he saw from the mural on the wall was <Basic Nine Slashes>.
But in the eyes of others, the same mural pattern may become <Basic Nine Fists>, <Basic Nine Swords>, <Basic Nine Spears>...
However, compared to Bai Zhou, the opponent was much more skilled, and his hidden potential was kept secret. Bai Zhou had a sudden attack, and it was inevitable to avoid it as soon as it broke out!
The right half of his body was still numb, so Bai Zhou simply gritted his teeth. While holding the knife in his right hand to block, he took out Short Club with his left hand, as if wielding the knife.
The wind howls, Saber Qi overflows!
The same is <Basic Nine Slashes>!
"Boom!!"
After a loud noise, Bai Zhou flew out and managed to regain its balance.
On the other hand, Wolf Knight Statue's heavy body just takes two steps back.
A battle at the same level?
Is this really a battle of the same level?
Bai Zhou gritted his teeth.
He was originally thinking that as Destined One, he had almost no opponents at the same level.
But now Bai Zhou realizes that it is not that he is too strong, but that his opponent is too weak...
The statue of Wolf Knight is of course also Destined One!
Bai Zhou relies on <Basic Nine Slashes> as its trump card, and the opponent will do the same.
And Wolf Knight is more proficient in mastering it, almost like an instinct!
Not only that.
The spirituality erupting from the opponent's body is very similar to [Adventurer], but it is inexplicably incompatible with each other.
The moment that kind of power entered Bai Zhou's body, it had both the aggressiveness of fire and the strange corrosive properties.
Just a ray of spirituality cost Bai Zhou several times the opponent's spirituality before it could be destroyed!
"What way?!"
This is a type that seems to have the same origin as [Adventurer]--
But it is definitely not the power of [Adventurer]!
More crazy, more disordered, more...
Fall!
"What?"
Bai Zhou is confused.
But before Bai Zhou could think more, the brief confrontation ended, and Wolf Knight flew in again.
It brandished its lance like a knight charging on horseback.
"Clang!"
Huge force came from the blade, making Bai Zhou's arm numb.
As soon as the knight's gun was retracted, it turned from a stab to a sweep without any gap, like a steel whip striking at the waist.
Sweep the Thousand Armies, Thousand Armies Repelled!
The whistling wind made Bai Zhou's scalp numb. He did not dare to take the blow, so he turned around to avoid it. At the same time, he delivered the blade to Wolf Knight's gun-holding arm.
However, Wolf Knight seemed to have expected it, and still had the energy to return to defense, and then raised the tip of his spear.
Bai Zhou's strength has grown old, but the opponent seems to have endless energy and regains the upper hand.
"Dang! Dang! Dang! Dang!"
Wolf Knight remained silent, attacking like a continuous tide or dense clouds on the horizon.
There is no trace of the angle of the attack, it is impossible to guard against it, and it is impossible to breathe!
Every time the gun is delivered, it must be at the most vulnerable angle of Bai Zhou. With the cunning and madness of a wild wolf, if you catch the flaw, you will be brutally bitten.
Whenever Bai Zhou finally figured out how to deal with the opponent, the opponent would always change his tactics and always take the initiative, making it unpredictable.
Even if both parties use the same set of <Basic Nine Slashes>...
But in the opponent's hands, this set of secret skills Bai Zhou just learned has a completely different performance!
A broken knight's spear was like a poisonous snake in its hand, biting, stabbing, picking, and teasing.
But in the blink of an eye, the gun came down from the sky like a heavy hammer, smashing and sweeping across.
The fierce power is overwhelming, but there is still more energy waiting for Bai Zhou!
<Basic Nine Slashes>, in the opponent's hands there are more than just 9 moves, or even more than 81 moves and 243 moves?
You can get as many moves as you want, and you can change the moves at your fingertips. Each move is a magic touch that best suits the current situation!
Ever-changing, endless changes!
This use of secret techniques has completely surpassed Bai Zhou's understanding.
"Strong! So strong!"
The more he fought, the more horrified Bai Zhou became.
But he also had a vague understanding.
The opponent's knight spear is not here to kill him.
But... a kind of guidance?
Wolf Knight, teaching him how to fight!
"Then..."
"As you wish."
Immerse yourself in your mind and throw away distracting thoughts, Bai Zhou's movements seem to be getting faster and faster.
He is making progress, he is growing!
Not only the mastery of <Basic Nine Slashes>, but also the proficiency has greatly improved.
Under the opponent's almost crazy and overwhelming attacks, Bai Zhou finally learned...
He learned to give up thinking.
Give up the brain's useless thinking about moves, and gradually hand over the dominance of the battlefield to the "instinct" of fighting.
It is not a person who controls secret skills, nor is it a person who controls secret skills.
--But let the secret skills you learned "move by yourself".
... This level of progress and inspiration to Bai Zhou is almost comparable to Bai Zhou's first battle with Bloated Giant in his life!
Even, at the end, Bai Zhou simply closed his eyes.
Eyes are useless because you can't see the opponent's next move and will only absorb too much useless information and make yourself nervous.
Brain thinking is also useless, because the opponent's next move will change faster than the "solution" that can be thought out.
But when Bai Zhou closes his eyes, eliminate all distractions.
He has always been at a passive disadvantage, but he seems to have transformed into a war weapon that has experienced hundreds of battles, and is increasingly able to withstand the opponent's violent attacks.
"Dang-rang! Dang-rang! Dang-rang!"
Surrounded by the solemn carols of "Great Sacrifice".
Two figures caught each other and fought each other in the song under the moon.
The only audience is Monster who is singing, eyes rolling, and curiously peeking here.
Figures rise and fall, and the sound of wind mingles.
Both of them were silent, and only the sound of weapons and weapons was heard like a continuous rainstorm.
Bai Zhou's expression is always calm.
All attack trajectories were stirred up like an invisible "net", and Bai Zhou sensed the movement.
This is...
Destined One's use of [Mind's Eye]!
"Dang! Dang! Dang!"
The blade and Gun Blade are clashing with each other more and more frequently.
In Bai Zhou's heart, in addition to the movements of Wolf Knight's figure, there were also hundreds of little figures.
Among them, there are 243 patterns of knife-wielding villains, such as Bai Zhou.
There are also 243 patterns of gun dancing figures, such as Wolf Knight.
Then, hundreds of patterns danced at the same time and gradually merged together.
The villain pattern of Wolf Knight is merged into the pattern of Bai Zhou.
In this process, Bai Zhou went from being completely passive to slowly becoming able to take the lead.
My body felt the eerie gun light everywhere Wolf Knight, and Bai Zhou suddenly felt a very indescribable feeling in my heart.
Let the "secret skills" take action on their own.
What this Wolf Knight is teaching Bai Zhou...
Hidden deep in <Basic Nine Slashes>!
It is the sublimation of <Basic Nine Slashes>First Three Forms!
... And this kind of sublimation is actually a superficial application of "Battle Intent"?
Bai Zhou is not sure either, but this is the message coming from the 243 patterns in my heart.
But...
"Body, mind, energy, essence, mind, spirit."
"Intention" is clearly something that only Level 5 Extraordinary will come into contact with!
This is also the fundamental reason why they are called "High-level Extraordinary".
And Bai Zhou is obviously only level 3!
However - what Wolf Knight "taught" Bai Zhou is not just that.
In the past, Bai Zhou always wielded his sword with all his strength and with great momentum.
Now Bai Zhou, after learning from Wolf Knight in battle, he understands that it is easy for the opponent to dodge and seize the opportunity to take the initiative.
He began to divide the same knife into two or three parts. The first part only had three levels of power bursting out, hiding more continuous stamina behind it.
In this way, the opponent cannot dodge no matter what.
After dodging a knife, there are continuous back moves, and as long as you catch this knife, you will immediately find that there is too much hidden in this knife...
Like a sparrow falling into Heavenly Net, and like a tiny ant seeing the boundless heaven and earth collapse--
The terrible feeling that Wolf Knight first brought to Bai Zhou came from this!
This is also the most suitable for the advanced application of this special secret skill <Basic Nine Slashes>!
The hymn of "Great Sacrifice" is pervasive.
The ethereal tone gradually rose, and the story in the song seemed to reach a new climax.
And the Bai Zhou knife is getting faster and faster.
Finally--
A dangerous encounter, sparks swayed on Bai Zhou's cheek.
Wolf Knight's broken gun stabbed back at Bai Zhou at an extremely weird angle.
But Bai Zhou's figure is no longer where it was.
He is in heaven--
The shadow fell on the ground, bringing with it a completely different sense of oppression than before Bai Zhou.
Bai Zhou The left hand Short Club stands in front of the chest, lighting up the flame.
Blood Red Crescent Moon arrived, and the swaying fire followed the figure of Bai Zhou.
[Moon Ember Victory Slash]!
But it's not over yet.
Twist your waist.
maneuver.
Purple Gold Horse Saber hiding behind him came one after another.
Purple Gold Saber Qi is as eloquent as Great River!
White Sun Wheel, rising at the end of the long river.
<Basic Nine Slashes>!
At this moment.
The sun and the moon intersect!
Bai Zhou Just like a whirling windmill, the sun and moon, swords and sticks, also rotate immortally, borrowing force to form a cycle of their own.
The 27-fold Forceful Energy in the saber is merged with the Forceful Energy in <Moon Ember Victory Slash>.
--28 weight Forceful Energy!
"Buzz!"
Pure white sunlight and flaming moonlight illuminated the outline of Wolf Knight's faceplate as he looked up.
Its expression seemed to have undergone some subtle changes, and it was sluggish for a moment.
They say... people who want to win don't have any expression on their faces.
If you try your best, your expression will even look...
Ferocious!
Sure enough.
Bai Zhou, with a ferocious expression, closed his eyes and fell from the sky.
Like a god or a devil.
One stick and one knife, or--
Two knives were smashed down on his head and face.
Forceful Energy is dense, and the back force is unfathomable, as if the heavens cannot escape.
It can only be hardwired.
But how to hardwire it?
Even if it is the Wolf Knight Statue of the same level...
Facing this Sun Moon Same Fall blow, it is absolutely impossible to block it!
"The assessment is over."
At this moment, Bai Zhou could even hear the echo of the heart beating hard in the chest.
He closed his eyes tightly and shouted softly:
"Cut!"
The blade flashed!
Sun Rise The moon is setting, and the figures are intertwined.
Above the head is the grand chant of "Great Sacrifice".
The song revolves around the tone of the Divine Hall, and gradually falls into a trough.
Bai Zhou, who was holding the two swords crossed in his hands and half kneeling on the ground, slowly opened his eyes.
And behind him...
"Boom"--
The tall "Wolf Knight" has his back facing Bai Zhou.
Finally, slowly fell down!
