boom!
boom!
The explosion-like sound echoed through the dungeon, deafening.
In the firelight, bullets hit the wooden piles on the opposite side of the wall, sending sawdust flying.
The fur of the cats living in the dungeon exploded as soon as they heard the gunfire, but slowly, they ran back with their tails between their legs, followed Friday, and came up curiously.
In the deepest part of the dungeon, in a dark and damp room, Mavey held two kerosene lamps and looked with a headache at Edward who was shooting in different ways in front of him. Edward could learn what he taught him as soon as he learned it, even though learning to shoot was difficult in itself. It's not difficult....
The remaining 4 bullets in the revolver were quickly used up. Edward pulled out the magazine and poured the empty bullet casings that were emitting residual heat on the ground. With a tinkling sound, he stretched out his hand towards Mavey.
"What?"
"Bullets, give me a few hundred more."
"Hundreds of them?!"
Ma Wei’s voice was out of tune: “Do you want hundreds of bullets to be useful?!”
"Just for fun..." Edward said, "This thing is much more exciting than magic... I just don't know how powerful it actually is..."
The majestic leader of the blood clan actually fell in love with the revolver used by humans. Ma Wei...
Nothing to say.
"You stole the pistol from someone else. It is a very serious incident for the police to throw away the gun. Please return it immediately!"
Edward rolled his eyes and agreed readily: "Okay, I'm just borrowing it for fun anyway."
Returning to the church, Ma Wei opened the door of the church and took advantage of the absence of believers to ask about the secret book of the blood clan.
According to Edward, in addition to the magic used by the vampires, the Vampire Codex also records many secrets, including the methods of human gods.
"This is the supreme code of our Vampire Clan. It cannot be shown to outsiders. Besides, you can't understand it. It is written in Vampire Clan script. Even the newly born members of the book don't recognize it."
Edward rejected Ma Wei's request to borrow the secret book: "But I can tell you what you want to know."
There are so many things I want to know...
While slandering, Ma Wei organized the order of questions and said: "Just now in front of Director Richard, you said that believers can obtain the power of gods through prayer. This is two different ways than gods directly granting gifts to believers. In addition, Are there any other ways to use the power of the gods?”
"Your question is too broad..." Edward said dullly: "It is clearly recorded in the secret book that there are two main ways for human gods to grant power to believers. One is to directly grant it, which is the method you used before. The other one is the prayer I told Richard."
"Those who can directly obtain the power of God's gift must be believers who can be absolutely trusted. The power of the gift is provided for a long time, and believers can use it whenever they want. And the way of praying does not require the god to come forward in person, just after hearing After the believers pray devoutly, they can temporarily grant strength to the other party."
"Although the secret code does not specify why these two methods are divided, I think the fundamental reason is to protect the gods."
Ma Wei nodded, his guess was roughly the same as Edward's.
There is a big difference between the goddess directly conferring divine power and the gift given through prayer. The former can have close contact with the gods, while the latter can only be viewed from a distance.
"Is there any difference in the power obtained through these two methods? For example, one is stronger and the other is weaker?"
"There should be, I'm not sure. The secret code only mentions the usage methods, but does not mention the difference between them." Edward narrowed his eyes: "In addition to these two methods, the secret code also mentions a About the forbidden arts of human gods.”
"What forbidden technique?"
"Sacrifice Magic."
Edward looked at Yunia, who was sitting next to his father and listening carefully, and his face became solemn: "This seems to be the innate ability of the gods. You know that most human gods believe in gods, that is, they gain power by gaining faith. The gods themselves It is also part of this system.”
"To put it simply, the gods themselves can also provide the power of faith."
"The occurrence of this situation has caused the power system that was originally supposed to be a pyramid to become a circular closed loop. Believers are not divided into races, genders or powers. Humans can become believers, animals can be believers, and gods can be ....It’s okay, this is a triangle that is connected to each other!”
At this point, Edward ignored Ma Wei's doubtful eyes and said with a smile: "Last night in the castle, I said that the Church of Truth has a bright future, not only because of your bravery and wisdom. People who are both brave and wise, the world There are many things on it, but what really impresses me is your relationship with God. God believes in you, and you...are the real authority in the church."
"Isn't it incredible that humans can guide gods? But this is the key to launching the forbidden technique!"
"I don't know how you made the gods believe in you wholeheartedly, but this forbidden technique is one of the most terrifying magics in the world...well,"
Letting a person put down all his guard and completely trust himself is the key to launching the forbidden technique. Trust is something that is very rare. As long as people belong to different individuals, it is difficult to achieve absolute trust!
The more materialistic the era, the more so.
When people are no longer honest and pursue fame and wealth, how can they trust others?
Besides, the other party is a god with authority!
"This is your treasure. It is what makes you most unique. It is also the reason why I am willing to accept your conditions and come into contact with the so-called truth..."
Edward stood up and said with emotion: "I'm very curious, who can gain the absolute trust of a god? If you can understand the essence... the vampire family, maybe you can develop and grow."
"You seem to want to develop the Vampire Clan." Ma Wei suddenly asked: "Why? You already have powerful power, why don't you pursue more powerful power and instead focus on developing the Vampire Clan?"
"I'm afraid of being alone..." Edward said softly: "I have been wandering in the Kingdom of Death for two thousand years. There is no noise, no joy, and the silence is scary. It is the most terrifying prison in the world, enough Destroy all ambitions and desires, so when I woke up, I was eager to find a companion, even if it was just someone to talk to me..."
As he spoke, he walked towards the door.
"where did you go?"
"Go to the market for a while, get some food, and stop by the police station... Didn't you ask me to return the gun to Director Richard?"
Uh-huh!
Edward's body turned into a bat, flapping its wings and flying into the sky. Even if the sun was blazing, it could not stop its determination.

"Dad, where did Uncle Laiwen go?" Yunia asked, "I haven't seen him since breakfast!"
"Him? He's gone to Ross Lair."
