Longevity Village finally truly became a legend.
A large number of villagers who were the carriers of the curse died, and the blood at the root of the curse has also died. Although the beast is missing, generally speaking, the disaster called "Blood Disaster" has become a thing of the past.
The craziness of the red moon is not permanent. The moon returns to normal after a period of time. When the silver brilliance fell on the ground again, the pure-blood hunters walked leisurely toward the exit from the mountains.
They have returned to normal and have the same birth, old age, illness and death as ordinary people. But this is exactly what they long for. With the support of the skills they have trained over the years and the blood magic they can still use, it is not particularly difficult to go to the outside world and spend their lives as normal people.
"I heard there's a war going on outside."
"Then we can become soldiers! Anyway, with our strength, it is impossible to defeat some ordinary people."
"Forget it, I want to find a quieter place to farm. Third sister, fifth brother, what about you?"
Shi Xiaolang smiled slightly after hearing this.
"Let's find a way to do business."
"Fifth brother, you like military uniforms so much. I thought you liked being a soldier."
"Look at Lisuo. Third sister, what do you want to do?"
Wu Que tilted his head, thought for a moment, and said a little uncertainly: "Hunting?"
"And hunting!"
Everyone burst into laughter, Wu Que smiled lightly, and Shi Xiaolang raised his hand to suppress the laughter.
"Whether it's hunting or not, I heard that animal products are valuable outside. It would be good for me to be the purchaser for Third Sister."
"Thanks then...uh!"
Just as Wu Que was about to answer, his expression suddenly changed slightly, and he squatted down holding his stomach.
The hunters immediately gathered around him, some asking about the situation and others reaching out to check for a pulse, but Wu Que was sweating profusely in pain, but there was nothing special about his pulse.
"What happened to Third Sister?" Mu Zilan was anxious.
At this moment, an answer came from behind the hunters.
"childbirth."
They turned around and saw three people standing there.
Cheng Wuling, Su Shengge, Mo Xiren.
There were varying degrees of blood stains on their bodies. Even Su Shengge was too lazy to break down the blood on their bodies. It was obvious that they had just killed many people.
There was no need to ask for confirmation. Many figures had already appeared in the surrounding woods, including villagers from the village, people wearing pig face masks, and the "invaders" who had been killed by them before.
These are corpses.
"What do you mean by childbirth?" Shi Xiaolang separated from everyone and walked to the front.
"It's a curse."
Cheng Wuling pointed at Wu Que and said.
"The Blood of the Night Clan was born with the curse. Does his death mean the death of the curse? Although he didn't say a few words during the battle, many of them were very suspicious... In addition, as a skilled craftsman, the prayer room Such an important mirror appears to be in a state of disrepair, which makes people suspect that it may be an item left behind by the 'previous generation'."
"The previous generation? This generation?"
Shi Xiaolang's lips trembled, and at this moment, Wu Que let out a scream. The sound of cracking bones and tearing flesh came from behind him, and a black bird was covered with a bloody film. The creature slipped out from her lower abdomen, and was even connected to a bloody umbilical cord.
"This, this is..."
Wu Que was able to speak at this time. She knelt on the ground and stared at the "fetus" that was no more than the size of a palm, her eyes filled with hatred and anger.
New fetus?
What a joke!
The sharp sword light was drawn out from behind her, penetrated the fetus's head and nailed it to the ground. Then it affected the catalyst carried by Mu Zilan beside her, and the green flame immediately wrapped the fetus and burned it!
"I very much hope that this will solve the problem. After all, I am not prepared to carry out meaningless killings..." Cheng Wuling took a step forward, "However, the blood will select 'receptors' one by one along the curse to be reborn. If all the blood and essence of Wu Que is extracted, it will be... postponed to the next one."
Shi Xiaolang had already felt the pain in his lower abdomen, and only then did he understand what Cheng Wuling meant by using "receptor" instead of "mother body".
"So are you here to kill us?" He laughed miserably.
"Yes, in order to give you at least a chance to reminisce about the past, we have prioritized the eradication of hidden dangers in the village. As a new member of the Night Clan, we can also guarantee that...except for you, there will no longer be any corrupt blood here. ”
Cheng Wuling showed a helpless and sad expression at the right time.
"Then, then I will give birth to blood here! Let them leave! As long as someone is responsible for the bloodline delay, that's it!" Mu Zilan shouted.
"It's a pity... I won't allow it. In addition, since the curse is revived, the rotten blood in their bodies will also be revived. You will also know what will happen to them outside the area."
"What? But... there must be some loophole that can be exploited! There must be a way..."
"That's okay, Zilan."
Wu Que patted Mu Zilan on the shoulder.
"The few of us tried to assassinate the Night Clan out of hatred for this curse, but in the end we still ended up with this useless outcome..."
She raised her head and looked at Cheng Wuling, a confident and elegant smile regained her colorless face.
"Cheng - outsider, in your opinion, has our life been a mistake since birth?"
"……yes."
"That's such a shame."
With a twist of the blade, the green fire was transmitted along the umbilical cord to Wu Que's body, and soon burned her whole body to ashes.
Her action seemed to give a signal to the hunters. In the endless silence, everyone took out their weapons. Shi Xiaolang was the first to take out his knife, cut open the abdomen, and cut out the forming fetus. Picked out.
There was a sound of falling to the ground behind him, but Shi Xiaolang did not look back, or in other words, he did not dare to look back. After he counted twenty times silently, he raised his head slightly and looked at the sky in the east, which was turning fish belly white.
"The curse...is over."
The flames spread from his body and burned the man to ashes.
Cheng Wuling stepped forward, walked around in a circle, and confirmed everyone's death. Then he turned his head and looked at Su Shengge and Mo Xiren, who had remained silent throughout.
"I underestimated their determination, but in terms of the result, it should be a satisfactory result."
"Hmph...I definitely don't want to be with you again." Mo Xiren said coldly.
"Whatever, we can leave. The blood plague has been eradicated."
After saying these words, Cheng Wuling walked towards the valley alone.
===================
This is a cabin.
This was what Lu Ning confirmed after waking up. The very distinctive hatch and the rickety feeling made people feel like they were sitting on a ship. In fact, looking out the window, under the unique black night sky of the distribution center, she also Driving on the dark sea.
The hunger in her belly reminded her that she should eat, and her body was fully restored by the high-quality healing services provided by the distribution center, so she opened the hatch and came to the aisle.
"Good morning."
As soon as she reached the stairs, Lu Ning bumped into Shu Xingruo who was just coming downstairs. She didn't look very good, and she was holding a plate of food wrapped in wrapping paper. When she saw Lu Ning, she didn't greet her with her usual warm tone.
"Morning, are you... okay?"
"Fortunately, I'm lucky... By the way, the space above is for entertainment and conversation. It's not much different from the one we take every time we return, but the space is larger. There are all the people who have successfully upgraded this time. You can go and have a look."
"Sorry." Lu Ning said suddenly.
"It's not your fault...please give me some time."
Shu Xingruo walked around Lu Ning in a panic and hurried back to his room.
After going upstairs, Lu Ning could see a wide hall, where some waiters with heads like sunflowers were walking back and forth delivering drinks. During a slight pause, the waiter's courteous inquiry came from beside him:
"Miss Lu Ning, do you need guidance?"
"Is there any difference between this place and the first level?"
"There is no difference in general. So before you enter, please allow me to inform you of some precautions for the second-level distribution center."
Sunflower gestured sideways to the seat next to her, and Lu Ning walked over and sat down.
"Speaking."
"The second-level distribution center is generally no different from the first-level, both in terms of scene classification and stay time. Of course, this three-day cruise is given to you as a bonus and is not included in the stay time. "Sunflower stretched his palm forward, and a beautifully wrapped letter fell into his hand.
"For those of you who can enter the second level, we have provided an explanation book that notes many things that need to be paid attention to. Your time is precious, and I will only remind you of the three most important points."
Lu Ning nodded and took the letter.
"First, at the beginning of the second-level distribution center, the score may be negative, so please be careful not to return your score to zero. Once it returns to zero, no matter how you supplement it later, you will definitely be sent to the 'execution' scene. Second, the second level This is the first gathering of people at the Tier Distribution Center. Please be sure to believe the information provided by us, not the private information provided by others. If this causes your death, it will also be our distress. Third, please pay attention to the state of your own soul. Believe it or not. Your goal is to return to your hometown, so it is also very important to ensure a healthy and sane soul."
After saying that, Xiangkui bowed deeply to Lu Ning.
"In addition, any reasonable requests can be made to the ship's stewards. All services here are free, so please enjoy your vacation."
The waiter left on his own. Lu Ning put the letter in her arms and looked into the hall.
The normally visible bar now provides a variety of ordering services in addition to drinks. Independent small shops are lined up on the other side, where all kinds of entertainment can be enjoyed. If you don't like crowded halls, you can also ask for a private room, which is deep in the corridor.
The distribution center is not stingy with material life.
There were not many people in the hall now. Two drunk men were lying at the bar. Chen Fangyu and several of his companions were sitting at a round table in the corner. When they saw Lu Ning, they also waved and said hello.
"Have you seen my companion?" Lu Ning walked over and asked.
"Room No. 7, just go over and ring the doorbell." Chen Fangyu seemed to be in a very good mood. After all, he survived and passed the promotion. Even though he knew that the road ahead was difficult and dangerous, he could still allow himself to relax.
After thanking him, Lu Ning walked to the door of Room 7 and rang the doorbell.
Soon, the door was opened. Mo Lianren was stunned for a moment when he saw Lu Ning, and then he opened the door and welcomed her in with a happy face.
Lu Ning walked into the door and found that the room was very large and there were many people here.
Ning Yeyi curled up on the sofa, her face had returned to its original appearance. She was holding the detective with one hand and putting the other hand under her head. She was completely isolated from the outside world. She still had a pile of things on her hand. It goes without saying that she is very satisfied with suspenseful detective works from various worlds.
Zhu Hongye and Chu Jianting each held a bottle of wine and sat in a small theater separated by a piece of glass. What was shown on the huge screen was a rather rough-looking martial arts movie, but they both enjoyed it. The look of it.
Su Shengge was sitting in front of a virtual reality game console, wearing a helmet on her head and undergoing an immersive experience. She was relatively quiet.
There was a square table in the middle. Cheng Wuling, Zhao Chenshuang, Mo Xiren and an unknown man were playing an unknown board game in front of the square table.
"woke up?"
Cheng Wuling looked up and saw Lu Ning and asked.
"Um...where are the others?"
"If Shu Xing is in the room in a bad mood, Ye Tisi is probably blowing the wind at the bow of the ship. The others are either dead or have not been promoted."
"who is he?"
Lu Ning raised her finger and pointed at the man playing the game with the three of them.
The man glanced at Lu Ning with a slightly appraising look, without standing up, he leaned on the chair and introduced himself: "My name is Xiang Yi. We should have met in the scene, but unfortunately we didn't have the chance to meet each other later."
"He is from the fairy tale paradise." Zhao Chenshuang added, "According to what he said, the only time he saw you was in the cell, and he looked like a little girl at that time."
"That little girl? Fairy tale paradise? It's you -"
"Isn't it good? I have a share of the credit for your easy time this time. I scored third this time." Xiang Yi raised the corner of his mouth, "It means that the official also recognized my achievements."
"Third? How did he know?" Lu Ning looked at Cheng Wuling.
"The top ten are on the cruise ship's announcement. They don't have names, but they have scores." Cheng Wuling said calmly, "It probably means to tell everyone who has advanced not to be too complacent and look at other people's scores."
"Then he is from the fairy tale paradise..."
"Well, don't worry, none of us will hold back once we enter the scene. Relax now." Cheng Wuling glanced at Xiang Yi.
"It's really scary. If I weren't so courageous, I would be frightened - Hey, it's your turn." Xiang Yi held the card in his hand and waved it to Cheng Wuling.
Only then did Lu Ning notice that the four of them were playing a card board game with very complicated rules. There were several different colors and cards.
"Then... act on the cards first and discover the treasure." Cheng Wuling took out a card and threw it out, then reached out to grab a stack of cards with gold coin backs in front of him, "Turn over the top two cards and trigger the effect .”
"Um?"
"These two were adjusted by [Astrologer Duran] before, first the 'Haunted Farm', and then the 'Dark Raven'. The Haunted Farm is a round-lasting effect, then the Dark Raven determines, rolls the dice, and if the result If it is 1, 3, and 5, all my troops will be doubled. If it is 2, 4, and 6, half of my troops will die."
Cheng Wuling picked up a white dice and threw it into the plate in the center of the table.
"It's four! Haha!" Xiang Yi clapped his hands, "Now all your soldiers are gone!"
"The effect of the Haunted Farm, the troops lost during this round are converted into an equal number of first-level undead." Cheng Wuling calmly removed some white counting codes in front of him, and then placed some black ones.
"Yes, but you chose humans. The additional bonus of coexistence of humans and undead will also halve the combat effectiveness of all troops. You are finished. Next round I..."
"When more than half of my troops are in a state of low morale, the crisis card 'Bloody Sacrifice' can be triggered. By sacrificing half of the troops whose morale is lower than the original, a hero is drawn. Then... [Master Craftsman Javier], The passive effect is technology level +1, so my technology will be level 4, and at the same time, the human troops sacrificed by me will also be converted into undead."
Xiang Yi obviously did not expect such a result. He immediately grabbed the cards and looked at them, and found that this was really the case.
"Then, the manufacturing right of this round is also used to recruit a hero. The rule effect is that when all my troops belong to the same troop type, I can recruit heroes from that troop type or the camp I originally chose. This time I draw an undead hero, [ [Blood Knight Licht], the passive effect is to create an additional undead soldier, I create a LV4 undead soldier, the death priest."
"What? Wait, no, boss, how about I form an alliance with you?" Xiang Yi immediately made a gesture of surrender.
