[Faced with Katarina’s warning and invitation, do you choose...]
The options are 'Agree' and 'Deny'.
Mu You chose to refuse without much hesitation.
In fact, after the evolution of the Blood Niche, he no longer needs to rely on clearing the server to activate the blood god belief. He can still break through the thin blood bottleneck and upgrade to the 10th generation by going outside to collect some god's blood and start the path to blood god promotion. So it's okay for him to leave directly now.
The reason why he continues to stay is to collect the blood law.
Unlike other gods, the Blood God can unlock magical spells one by one through the faith pool. As long as he invests in divinity, he can learn them instantly.
All the 'blood laws' developed by the Blood God back then have been spread to a younger generation through blood. Apart from these vampires, there is no other way to obtain them.
For him, this scene is like a treasure house of blood laws. The more blood laws he can collect here, the more blood clan skills he can use in the future.
Therefore, Muyou's next goal is no longer to clear the level, but to collect as much blood law as possible.
[You shook your head and rejected Katarina’s invitation. 】
[Katerina saw your determination and looked at you with some regret: "You helped Allah complete the liberation. I also hope to repay you, but I'm sorry, I have to leave this ghost place immediately."]
["Allah is a kind and loving god. She should not bear such an infamy. After leaving here, I plan to spread the teachings of Allah to the world as a 'preacher' of the Blood God, inform the world of the injustice she suffered, and serve as a Allah rectifies the name... Before that, I must ensure that I am alive." Catalina looked at you apologetically and said. 】
[Obviously Catalina has decided to leave. 】
[Although you can't get Katarina's help, before she leaves, you may be able to ask her to use her prophetic ability to help you predict the future. 】
[Let Catalina help you predict the future], [Unknown developments are more interesting].
There were two options. Mu You was not someone who deliberately pursued excitement, so he naturally chose the first one.
[You asked Catalina to help you predict the future. 】
[Katerina did not refuse and asked you to stand in the light. She took a few steps back and retreated into the darkness. She concentrated on it. Her eyes were like cat eyes in the night, examining you from top to bottom...]
["...I saw...pyramids...starry sky...rockets...primitive people...you took the blood of the regent..." After a moment, Catalina suddenly seemed to be possessed, and began to speak unconsciously. Words popped out one by one. 】
["...You found that thing...No! Don't touch it! Stop it quickly...the fire...the burning city...all the lives are devastated and mourning is everywhere...be careful!!!" Catalina suddenly shouted, with a light in her eyes. He disappeared, his face turned pale, he couldn't maintain his balance and fell backwards. 】
[You stepped forward in time and supported Catalina. 】
["I'm fine..." Catalina waved her hands with lingering fear and looked at you apologetically: "Sorry, I can only see some scattered pictures..."]
[Are you curious and ask the other person, what did you see in the end that made you so frightened? 】
["I saw you, in a blaze of flames, with a man's arm passing through your chest..." Catalina said. 】
【"who?"】
["It seems...Beverley..."]
"That masked man?" Mu You frowned. Does this mean that he will die at the hands of the masked man in the future?
["Who will be my enemy in the future?" you ask. 】
["A lot! You will become the center, the center of everything. It seems like all the vampires in the city are chasing you crazily..." Katarina said with some pain. 】
["Then who are my friends? Is there anyone I can trust here?" you asked. 】
["Unfortunately, no... Maybe there will be many people close to you on the surface to try to win you over, but they are all talking and talking, waiting to take advantage of you." Catalina shook her head. 】
[Finally, you ask Catalina if she has any advice for you. 】
["Don't touch that thing! Absolutely not!"]
【"what?"】
["I don't know... I can't see it, there is only a blur in the foreknowledge, but I know that there is something evil, tempting you to keep getting closer to it... Remember, at the last moment, don't be bewitched by it! "Katrina said seriously. 】
Mu You was helpless, it was very uncomfortable to make such half-spoken prophecies.
No matter what, he finally knew that there was something dangerous and needed special attention. In addition, there is the masked man. There may be a battle between him and the masked man, and he finally dies in the hands of the masked man...
Fortunately, the prophecy is just a prophecy, not the real future. He still has the opportunity to change.
[You expressed your gratitude to Katarina and said goodbye to her. 】
["I wish you peace, and I hope we have a chance to see you again." After Catalina saluted you, she looked at you one last time, turned and left the woods, and quickly disappeared. 】
[You left the forest alone and returned to Chifeng Cemetery. 】
[The cemetery is still dark and silent, with no trace of any living person in sight. 】
[You emit 'super-sensory' energy, but you don't feel any stalkers nearby. 】
"Is that guy gone?"
Mu You breathed out. It is definitely impossible to say that the masked man was killed by those ghosts last night. It can only be because the other party found out that he was missing and knew that he would not be able to come out in a short time, so he left here directly.
[When you walk out of the cemetery, the streets are silent and there are no cars passing by. You can only walk home...]
[When you return to the apartment again, it is already dark. 】
[You arrive on the second floor of the apartment, push the door and enter your room, only to find a broad figure standing in the room, squeezing the already small room even smaller. 】
["Where did you go last night?" The masked man looked at you and asked. your choice……】
["The weather is hot, let's go out to enjoy the air." You replied. 】
["Going to the cemetery to enjoy the breeze?" the masked man sneered. 】
["Is there a shady place than a cemetery?" you asked. 】
["I said, don't act clever in front of me." There was a hint of warning in the masked man's voice. 】
["What are you trying to be clever about? You can't keep up, so who's to blame?" You looked at the other person without fear. 】
[The masked man frowned slightly, as if he didn't expect you to suddenly become tough. 】
Of course Mu You is tough, this is the confidence brought by strength.
Moreover, after learning that he might die in the hands of this guy in the future, Mu You and the other party had nothing to say, so they could just fight each other.
[The masked man looked at you carefully and said nothing more on this matter, but walked towards the door: "Let's go, the regent has summoned you."]
["What's the matter?" you asked. 】
[The masked man did not answer, but looked at the sky outside the window: "It's almost dawn. If you don't want to be exposed to the sun, you'd better not linger."]
Mu You raised his eyebrows.
What he was waiting for was daybreak, with the Blood God's ring in his hand. During the day, his combat power would be enough to erase the algebraic gap.
Mu You was even considering whether to delay it for a while and find a way to take the opponent outside to kill him directly after sunrise.
The prophecy says that he will die at the hands of the other party, so as long as he kills the other party in advance, he can always change this ending, right?
However, after a little hesitation, Mu You gave up the plan.
This person has a very keen sense. If he deliberately delays time, the other party may realize it.
There is only one chance to use the sun to sway the other party. Once you expose your ability to not be afraid of the sun, the other party will definitely be on guard. It is best to find a safer opportunity before taking action.
[You silently followed the masked man and left the apartment. 】
[…You arrived at the Prince Regent’s commercial building and met the Prince Regent again in the reception room on the top floor. 】
[The regent in a suit and tie is still walking towards you with a decent smile as before. He looks you up and down and clapped his hands: "You are indeed the person I like. In less than two days, you can continue to work together on your own." Promoted to the third generation, this is definitely the fastest record in this city!"]
Mu You was slightly surprised. The other party must have known about him getting rid of the masked man in the cemetery last night. He thought that the regent would question him, but he didn't mention it at all and just laughed it off.
[After praising you, the regent then brought up the topic of today’s meeting with you: “So, after one night, have you considered it clearly? Are you willing to accept my bloodline?”]
[The regent said, taking out a bottle with blood drops and placing it on the table. 】
["This is the blood of my heart. If you think about it, take it." The regent said in a tone that could not be refused. your choice……】
[Take blood drops to show your loyalty to the regent! 】
[Refuse to take it, saying you haven’t made a decision yet. 】
[He immediately turned his back and jumped out of the window to escape during the day. 】
Looking at the meaning of the text here, it seems that the regent has planned to force him to take sides.
Mu You was a little surprised. With the regent's elegant and generous character, it had only been one night, so he shouldn't have lost his patience so quickly.
Before the recombination, Catalina once mentioned in the prophecy given to him: 'You drank the blood of the regent', which should be referring to this.
Logically speaking, it was impossible for him to really drink the regent's blood, which would be equivalent to becoming his slave, but in the predicted future, he drank it...
The combination of the two things gave Mu You a hunch that this bottle of blood might not be as simple as it seemed.
After thinking about it, Mu You asked the character to look out the window.
[You look in the direction of the window. The gentle morning sun has just appeared, and the first ray of sunshine in the morning shines on the streets of this city...]
The sun has come out, so Mu You has nothing to be afraid of. Let's drink it first to see what's wrong with the blood. If it's really hard work, the worst he can do is look back and run away.
[You express to the regent that you have figured it out and are willing to surrender. 】
[Under the expectant gaze of the regent, you picked up the blood bottle on the table and drank it in one gulp without hesitation. 】
[The sweet blood in your mouth has slightly relieved your symptoms of blood hunger, but you don't feel any energy from the blood - it seems to be just a drop of ordinary human blood. 】
[You look at the regent in confusion. 】
[The Prince Regent has already clapped his hands and walked towards you: "Very good, my child, you have fully proved your sincerity!"]
["As for this drop of blood, there is no need to be surprised. This is just a drop of mortal blood. I'm sorry for testing you. I must leave the next thing to my true confidants. If you don't prove yourself, I can't tell you." Open your heart." The Prince Regent walked up to you with a smile and patted your shoulder: "But now, I confirm that you are one of our own."]
"Is it really just a test..."
Mu You raised his eyebrows. Of course, it was said to be a test, but it was only because he had a pocket watch that he dared to play like this. In fact, it was a huge bet that blocked his future, and most people would not dare to make a bet.
From the other party's perspective, if he dared to drink it without hesitation, it would only prove that he had sincerely surrendered.
[The Prince Regent warmly invited you to sit down at the table and talked about business with you. 】
["Have you ever heard of 'Tutankara'?" asked the regent. 】
[You shake your head to express your ignorance. 】
["'Tutankara', also known as the 'Plague Coffin', is a coffin that stores mummies. Legend has it that the ancient Egyptian pharaoh 'Plague King' was sealed in it. This Plague King got a disease before his death." This terrible disease is highly contagious and can easily destroy a clan. This pharaoh did not want his people to be engulfed by the disease, so he was willing to die and sealed all his remains and diseases in the coffin. Buried deep under the pyramid, a catastrophe was avoided..."]
["But now, 'Tutankara' was dug out by someone unknown and sent to the City of Enoch. According to reliable information, this thing is now under the control of Mansur, the leader of the Changer clan."]
["Once this thing is opened, it will turn this city into a hotbed of plague, and the consequences will be disastrous!"]
[You look at the Regent in confusion. Vampires are all immortals. With their recovery physique, can they still be affected by the plague? 】
["Vampires are naturally not afraid of plague, but humans cannot withstand this plague. Once humans die on a large scale, we lose our food source, and the only thing waiting for us is starvation." The Regent explained. 】
["So, this coffin is like a nuclear weapon in the City of Enoch. More important than actual damage is its deterrent effect. The person who controls this coffin controls the right to speak." 】
["You also know that the revolutionaries have always wanted to overthrow our rule. Before, they were small in number and failed to create a strong atmosphere, but now, they have gradually gained momentum, and with the addition of Tutankara, They have posed a huge threat to us and we must stop them before they attack!"]
[The regent looks at you eagerly: "Now, I have found out the specific location of Tutankara. I need someone to steal it back and then destroy it to avoid this catastrophe."]
["Unfortunately, that guy Mansoor has a very good nose. He can identify the smells of all three superior clans from a long distance. Therefore, only you who have not officially joined us can do this task. But remember , Never try to destroy or open Tutankara, it is too dangerous, be sure to bring it back to me intact, I will call in professionals and destroy it using professional means!"]
Mu You understood when he saw this. No wonder he was testing him with fake hard work. It turned out that he still needed to maintain his pure blood to do things.
"The coffin of the plague..."
Mu You looked at the text introducing Tutankhala, and immediately thought of Catalina's warning, telling him not to touch something. Could it be that this coffin was what he was talking about?
