"Put the extraordinary blood on my forehead to take care of me, so that I can get closer to greatness..."
As Byron's curse echoed through the alleys.
The magic circle was suddenly filled with a strong bloody smell that could not be emitted by one person's blood volume.
Instead, there were ten people, a hundred people, a thousand people... The thick smell of blood filled the nostrils, as if the whole person had been soaked in a pool of blood.
The runes mixed in the six-pointed star twisted and deformed like blood flowing in a malformed blood vessel, blooming with a dazzling blood light.
Within the scope of the entire [Blood Holy Grail] ritual, the visual world was abstracted and distorted.
The originally crooked alley seemed to have turned into the wriggling esophagus of some giant creature, and the irregular stone slabs on the ground turned into sticky tongue coating...
The feeling of weightlessness attacked Byron's brain along with waves of dizziness.
It seemed that if he accidentally stepped on the air, he would slide down the esophagus into the stomach bag of some super giant creature.
Byron has repeated the same operation five times, and is completely unmoved by this strange sight that actually only occurs on the spiritual level.
There is no bloody sky in the real world.
It's just that the [Anchor] that firmly binds him to the [Silver Law] has been quietly tightened.
Obviously this force that made him fall downward was not just an illusion!
"The Holy Grail of Blood, concrete!"
Byron took the time to recite the final incantation.
The blood light in the ritual suddenly came to life, like countless bloody tadpoles with sharp teeth, and like countless tiny insects that were undetectable.
Spreading towards the very fresh corpse of the Cyclops, after a "rustling" sound, there was only a ball of fist-sized blood essence left on the spot.
Byron quickly took off the horn wine glass from his belt - [Wonderful Object: Warrior's Cup].
[Effectiveness: 1. The volume is much larger than the appearance. It can hold a large amount of liquids in different categories, but it is limited to liquids.
2. It can separate and polymerize various components in liquid. 】
Its cutting inscription was read:
"The clear spring is like a drop of water!"
During this time, the blood essences of five other extraordinary victims who died at his hands emerged.
They fall on the other five corners of the other six-pointed stars.
Buzz—!
The six extraordinary beings took their places as sacrifices, and the blood light in the ritual seemed to be ignited.
They burned blazingly and condensed into a golden-red phantom of the Holy Grail, inlaid with gorgeous gems, right above the six-pointed star.
Visible to the naked eye, the cup was slowly filled with bright red liquid.
It is the blood brew used to treat Bruch - [Blood of Transmutation]!
Byron stretched out his hand and a whole cup of blood fell into the horn cup in his hand, and the blood light of the ceremony suddenly disintegrated.
The abstract world in front of me also returned to its normal state.
Looking at the [Transmutation Blood] in the cup, Byron's face showed a hint of joy that was difficult to conceal.
Like the base wine, this kind of raw material is required for each [blood brew], and it requires the consumption of the body and soul of intelligent creatures.
Efficacy: homogeneous transformation, different raw materials will transform in different directions.
Unlike those of Salman's previous stock.
This kind of [Transformed Blood] brewed from six extraordinary beings naturally exudes a faint blood-colored aura.
It is an extraordinary material of the highest quality, incomparable to the ordinary.
"It should be enough to exchange six lives of first-order extraordinary people for Bruch's one life."
Raising his left hand, he saw a bloody tattoo in the shape of the Holy Grail appearing in his palm.
This is a solidified ritual symbol.
At first, Salman, who failed to obtain complete forbidden knowledge, could only use "Bloody Mary's Gourmet Recipe" to initiate a very simple ritual.
Every time [Transmutation Blood] is needed, a specific chef must be eaten using very complicated means, which is extremely inefficient.
Byron didn't need to bother.
He pointed the Holy Grail in his palm at the two pirates who had been knocked unconscious, and spit out a simplified byte:
"Fir!"
A familiar blood burst out and instantly covered their bodies.
In just a few breaths, there were only two suspended drops of transmutation blood left in place.
It’s natural, green, and pollution-free, and there’s no need for Gus’s uncle, the Sheriff, to do anything to deal with the aftermath.
Although these two drops of blood brew are far inferior to the finished product brewed by extraordinary people, they are the most convenient and easy to obtain in a sea full of bloody killings.
Byron would not do anything like killing innocent people indiscriminately, but he had no psychological burden on killing his enemies.
He turned around and walked out of the alley, never looking at the assassination scene behind him again.
“I like the [Wild Hunt] title you gave me very much, and blood and [Wild Hunt] should really be the standard ones!
Let’s continue to welcome the blood feast. "
After fully interpreting "Bloody Mary's Recipe" and comparing it to the orthodox ladder of glory, Byron also understood the promotion system of forbidden knowledge.
Although black magic has broken through the restrictions of the [Silver Law], it actually has its own advancement route.
As his mastery of [Forbidden Knowledge] becomes higher and higher in the future, more and more blood brews will be successfully refined.
It can even transform all of its own blood into [Transformed Blood] and even [Scarlet Aura].
There is no need to mix wine, just a drop of blood can achieve various effects of the best blood brew.
If only the legendary and complete final ritual [Scarlet Holy Grail] could be performed and a cup of [Eternal Blood] brewed.
It can also allow oneself to completely break through the shackles of human beings and gain strength, speed, and reflexes that far exceed human limits.
Cure various diseases of the body and even...immortality!
Theoretically, you will no longer die from running out of life.
To put it bluntly, every promotion node has a corresponding ceremony.
What kind of ceremony you have performed will determine what level you can reach, and you can realize the transformation of the essence of life bit by bit.
Previously, Salman wanted to embark on this path relying on the superficial knowledge he learned from the Bloodthirsty Order.
In the end, even the miserable [Ghoul] failed to achieve success.
"Unlike [Ladder of Glory], which seems to have been severely simplified, forbidden knowledge is more like what extraordinary power should be.
What's more, this is immortality! "
Byron couldn't help but think of his uncle [Mad King].
If he had drank this [blood of immortality] and cured his hereditary mental illness, perhaps nothing like this would have happened now.
If this kind of thing appeared on the mainland, it would definitely be like the legendary [Fountain of Youth] on the sea, making all kings and bishops crazy about it.
It's a pity that this final ritual is not included in "Bloody Mary's Gourmet Cookbook".
Perhaps we can gain further results by looking for the Bloodthirsty Order that Salman defected from.
Byron plans to reorganize Salman's belongings when he has free time to see if he can find any clues.
Of course, even if a complete ritual can be found in the future, extremely stringent conditions must be met to reproduce it.
And when he voluntarily leaves the protection of the [Silver Law] and learns forbidden knowledge in depth, all risks must be borne by himself!
risk? side effect? !
Thinking of this, Byron suddenly trembled.
I remembered that after performing the ritual, I had not checked the specific side effects.
"Gluttony! Lust!..."
My heart couldn't help but beat violently.
It was impossible to enter a meditative state and check my own status. I could only prepare to quietly take a look at my own logbook as if I were going to the execution ground.
Sudden.
"Bah, bah, bah..."
Byron slowly turned his head.
He saw Gus, who was sitting at the corner at the end of the alley, waiting for him, and Ba Zhi, who was responsible for the logistics these days, each grabbing a handful of skewers and eating them with gusto.
Apparently it was Ba Zhi who brought them midnight snacks for their hard work.
Even though it was only eight o'clock in the evening, the street across the street was still full of drunken people.
Wrapped in the dripping sauce, the curled red octopus legs seem to be alive and jumping on the tip of the tongue, fresh and full of elasticity.
Extremely tempting!
Extremely tempting?
"Gudu, what are you two eating?"
Byron's throat suddenly felt dry, and he couldn't help but walk towards...the grilled squid in their hands.
He was completely unaware that the [Navigation Log] had shown the side effects of learning forbidden knowledge.
One piece of good news and one piece of bad news.
The good news is that Byron has only one negative side: tentaclemania.
Bad news, this strange addiction combines gluttony and lust...
