Blood Flame Transformation Technique

"Unfortunately, activating the fourth Bloody Vortex and cultivating Angel's Thorn completely depleted the life essence of Addison and Winterburn. The runes for Agility Technique will probably take another ten-plus days of effort."

"However, there are actually better options than Agility Technique and Spirit Spider Technique!"

Page one of the Vampire Secret Scroll records the foundation of the House of Adonis Blood Kindred's secret technique: Blood Flame Qi!

Page two records the Blood Flame Transformation Technique.

As the name suggests, the Blood Flame Transformation Technique doesn't transform you into different forms, only into a ball of Blood Flame!

Charlotte didn't care if he could transform into various animals or the appearances of different people. But if he could transform into a ball of Blood Flame, he could float through the air. While not as good as flying, it would be more than sufficient for travel.

During the midday rest, Charlotte was called over by Lord Leo. The first sentence made him shiver: "Our Byron and the Black Phoenix Dynasty have already signed an alliance. So this time, we are going to lure out the South Seraph restorationists and assassinate Grand Duke Ferdinand!"

"Thereby igniting the flames of war!"

Charlotte stared directly at the Evil God, his soul shattering and then reforming, activating the full memories of his two lives. He vividly remembered the knowledge he had acquired in his early years as Charlotte Mecklen, and of course, he knew the historical grievances between South Seraph and the Duchy of Behemoth.

Simply put, South Seraph resisted the invasion of the Empire of Fars and was on the verge of victory, but was stabbed in the back by the Duchy of Behemoth, leading to its demise.

South Seraph was destroyed nearly two hundred years ago. While the South Seraph people were relatively submissive to the Empire and acknowledged its rule, they had always harbored deep hatred for the Duchy of Behemoth.

There was a rumor that someone got drunk in a tavern and shouted, "I'm from the Duchy of Behemoth..." and was beaten to death by a group of South Seraph people.

The hatred between the two countries was evident.

If the South Seraph restorationists assassinated Grand Duke Ferdinand, the imperial family of the Empire of Fars would have to avenge him no matter what. The South Seraph restorationists would be no match for the full might of the imperial army and would inevitably seek outside help...

The slight flutter of a small butterfly's wings could potentially cause a devastating storm.

However, sometimes the storm is manipulated.

Although Charlotte was a Transcendent and had no feelings for the Empire of Fars, the thought of war breaking out and countless innocents dying needlessly still sent shivers down his spine.

Before his transmigration, he had lived in a country that had been at peace for decades. It was precisely because he had enjoyed such a long period of peace that he knew how precious peace was and how terrifying war could be.

He said in a low voice, "I haven't received this order."

Lord Leo said, "Your rank is too low. It's not surprising you don't know the full details of this plan."

"However, you must fully cooperate with my actions."

"Once this mission is complete, you can transfer to my command. I guarantee you at least one promotion."

Charlotte expressed his gratitude respectfully, but secretly thought to himself, I should find a way to disrupt the Byron people's plan.

How ridiculous, I'm a fugitive, yet I'm still thinking about helping the Empire of Fars maintain peace.

Lord Leo was very satisfied with Charlotte's attitude. After giving a few more instructions, he waved for him to leave and prepare to set off again.

This team moved extremely quickly along the way. After more than two days of travel, they reached Machu Picchu.

This fortress of an ancient Orc kingdom, though breached and burned by the Sherlock Dynasty, still retained its majestic presence even in ruins.

The architecture of the Orc kingdom emphasized grandeur, with each building soaring dozens of meters high. The fortress gates, in particular, stood towering and imposing, still awe-inspiring despite the city being destroyed centuries ago.

Charlotte was exhausted but volunteered to personally scout the situation.

Both his subordinate adventurers and Lord Leo found this person very reliable.

The adventurers felt that their "leader" was very brave for personally going into dangerous situations. Lord Leo felt that this future subordinate was courageous in taking on tasks and wasn't afraid of hardship, making him good material for a personal attendant.

Only Charlotte knew that he was entering Machu Picchu alone to verify the results of his recent study of the first page of the Agmilas Labyrinth.

Charlotte held the Magic Alchemy Staff in one hand and the old Magnum Hand Shuttle in the other, walking purposefully into Machu Picchu. As he entered the collapsed fortress gate, the ruins blocked the view from outside. He immediately put away both weapons, took out his diary, and turned to the page of Agmilas's Labyrinth.

He opened the first page, pressed the diary to the ground, and murmured softly for a while. There was no movement. Just as he was feeling slightly disappointed, thinking his research had gone wrong, a consciousness arose: Charlotte Mecklen has found the ruins of the ancient Orc kingdom, Machu Picchu, fulfilling the requirements for setting up the first labyrinth. Machu Picchu is about to be labyrinthized.

Charlotte watched with his own eyes as the first page of Agmilas's Labyrinth disappeared. He then felt the diary under his hand seemingly emit an invisible substance that expanded outwards, inch by inch, eroding the ruins of this ancient Orc kingdom fortress.

The first area to be eroded was the fortress entrance behind him, and using this as a base, it spread deeper into Machu Picchu. That consciousness arose again: "Machu Picchu will complete labyrinthization in eighteen days. During this period, you may not leave this place."

Charlotte took a deep breath, put away his diary, turned around, and walked towards the fortress gate. Standing inside the gate, he shouted, "There are no problems inside. I also found a clean spot where we can set up a驻扎 camp and wait for Grand Duke Ferdinand to pass by."

Lord Leo smiled slightly and said, "Good!"

Although he had heard some legends about Machu Picchu, he considered himself a high-level Transcendent and showed no fear. He brought two servants and walked into this ruined fortress.

Charlotte immediately sensed a thought: "Three labyrinth NPCs added, erosion progress increased by 1.5%."

He was both surprised and delighted. He hadn't expected such a good thing!

The adventurers also followed into the ruined fortress. That thought kept sending out prompts: "Fifteen labyrinth NPCs added, erosion progress increased by 0.8%..."

"Twenty-one labyrinth NPCs added, erosion progress increased by 1.3%..."

"Thirty-four labyrinth NPCs added, erosion progress increased by 3.3%..."

"Total labyrinth NPCs: 136, total erosion progress increased by 16.5%."

Charlotte let out a long sigh of relief. He finally confirmed that his research direction was correct!

This ancient Orc kingdom fortress was extremely vast, having once housed a garrison of up to 270,000 soldiers. Although less than twenty percent had been labyrinthized, it was enough to ensure that anyone who entered would never be able to leave.

Lord Leo, being a high-level Transcendent, felt a sense of vigilance arise in his spiritual awareness. He looked around but found no clues.

He certainly couldn't have imagined that it wasn't some danger lurking, but that they had already "entered" the "danger."
