Chapter 242 Shadow Assassin Ring of Divine Fire
Selena watched the elders of her family being threatened like this, but she did not react at all. After all this, she had figured out a truth that only the strong can decide everything. And here, it is obvious that the strong are not them.
As for Emilia's group of trusted subordinates, they were just angry and dared not speak out. Their master's life and death were controlled by Zhou Yi. So much so that they did not dare to act rashly now. What's more, the power that Zhou Yi just showed was not something they could fight against.
Seeing all this, Emilia gave up her naive thoughts. Now she can live for a while, and as for the future, she can only think of another way.
"I can give you the holy blood, as long as you let me and my men go."
When Zhou Yi heard Emilia say such words helplessly, he grinned and started to laugh.
"Madam, you should make such a choice earlier. Maybe we won't be so embarrassed."
After saying that, he let go of Emilia. Emilia immediately distanced herself from him. Obviously, she was completely scared from the bottom of her heart about Zhou Yi, who was unpredictable.
After rubbing his throat that had just been almost suffocated, Emilia whispered.
"Come with me, the Holy Blood is hidden in a place by us."
After saying that, she took the lead in walking deep into the ground. This surprised Selena very much. She only knew that this was the elder's sleeping place, but she didn't know that there was a secret room for treasures below. You must know that when she was a child, she came here with Victor, and there was nothing besides the tomb and coffin.
Just like Selena thought, Zhou Yi followed Emilia to the depths of the ground. What he saw were stone coffins one after another. These coffins were neatly placed together, giving people a feeling of extreme depression at first glance. Some coffins were overturned to the ground, revealing incomplete bones from it. It looked even more terrifying.
"You guys come here." Zhou Yi was a little nervous when he saw this. He made up his mind and would definitely go back to disinfect it if he got the holy blood.
When Emilia heard Zhou Yi’s question, her face became a little darker. She looked at the coffins and said for a while.
"This is the cemetery of our family. The soldiers who died in every battle. As long as we can find the wreckage, they will be brought here to rest in peace."
"It seems that they can't rest in peace, and even their home has been turned over." He pointed to the fragmented bones that were turned all over the ground. Zhou Yi said with a smile. "I don't mean to be disrespectful to the dead. But I think you should do some serious things now, not mourn them here."
As soon as this said, Emilia choked on her chest and felt a lot of depression. However, the situation was stronger than that of others, so she could only do what Zhou Yi said.
After crossing a pile of wreckage on the ground, Emilia walked to the depths of the tomb. The deepest part of the tomb was a statue of a woman. It looked a bit like the statue of the Virgin Mary in the church, but her smile was not loving, but a kind of inexplicable cruelty. But what she was holding was not the Holy Son, but the stone carving of a child's corpse.
In short, this statue is full of thick dark colors and completely non-mainstream style. I guess no one except the aliens like vampires would like this kind of ghost thing.
Emilia came straight to the sculpture, and she picked up the statue of the child's corpse from the strange Virgin. Then she held the statue and walked step by step to a dry pool. There were many strange reliefs at the bottom of the pool, carved with bones and corpses.
Emilia put the statue in her arms into the pool. She didn't know how to fiddle with it. The bulge on the statue fitted with the relief under the pool. Then she heard a rumbling sound coming from the ground.
"This is a mechanism to open underground springs. We sink that thing into the water. Only by using this mechanism can we use magnetic force to suck the box containing that thing up. And because the groundwater flows, it only takes one hour a day to do this. There is no right method, or it is not at the right time. You can't get this thing, and you come in time."
As Emilia explained, the sounds underground became louder and louder. Finally, the gurgling water pushed a metal iron box and poured up from the bottom of the pool. Looking at this thing, Emilia let out a long sigh.
If the thing is still there, it means that her safety is not a problem. At least Zhou Yi will not be angry and angry for a moment. Kill her.
"This is what you want. More than a hundred years ago, the holy blood entrusted to us by a powerful vampire was here."
Emilia came to Zhou Yi with the box in her arms and respectfully handed the box over.
Zhou Yi took over what he had in his hand. The layer of metal outside was like a gift box in his hand. It was torn to pieces in two or three strokes. After tearing open the box, Zhou Yi saw what was inside.
A crystal-like pyramid, with four angels carved on the towers on all sides.
On one hand, Michael holding a long sword and a Libra, Gabriel holding a spear and gun, on the other hand, there was Laguier holding a trumpet, and on the other hand, there was Urier roaming the flames of fire all over his body.
The four great archangels appeared vividly and looked like real people. There was a faint light in it, surging from the lines of the angel relief. This light made Emilia, the vampire, retreat and wished to hide in Zhou Yi's shadow. But for Zhou Yi, he felt that the light was very familiar.
But obviously this is not the key to the problem. Zhou Yi played with what he was in his hand and focused his attention on the inside of the pyramid.
There is indeed a pool of divine blood inside. This is something that Zhou Yi, who also has divine nature, can be felt. But the power emitted by this blood is not like the Lord. What he feels from it is darkness, tranquility and the power of life, like flowing water, like the earth, and more like the breath of some kind of animal. But no matter which one, it has nothing to do with that God.
And feeling the restraint and sealing effect of the angel reliefs on the divine blood inside, Zhou Yi even more did not believe that this would be the blood of God. If this is the blood of God, unless those angels don’t want to do it, how could they dare to make such a seal?
But one thing is certain, this is what he is looking for. So, Emilia did not lie to him. Thinking of this, Zhou Yi had a headache. He believed in equivalent exchange. Since he got this from Emilia, he naturally had to give them some rewards.
"So. Madam. I got what I want. I'm willing to pay a price for it. So, can you tell me what you want?"
"What can we ask for?" A miserable look appeared on Emilia's face. "It's just a matter of living one more day and a day less. Things that have been destined cannot be changed just by wanting to change."
"You are afraid of the Dark Council." Zhou Yi was still playing with the crystal pyramid in his hand. A strange smile appeared on his face. "Actually, they are not that scary either. Do you think they are, the guy hiding in the shadow?"
After he finished speaking, the shadows on the ground suddenly moved stickyly like living things. Countless black shadows were quickly wandering on the walls of the tomb. They were so fast that they were overwhelmed and even more frightened.
Emilia was shocked and hurriedly approached Zhou Yi's position. At this moment, a black shadow suddenly ejected from her feet, and the target pointed directly at the pyramid in Zhou Yi's hand.
The black shadow was so fast that Emilia didn't even have time to react. But for Zhou Yi, he was still a little too slow.
A little spark of stars suddenly spread out from his feet, forming a golden ring of flames. As soon as the black shadow crossed the boundary of the ring, a fire snake suddenly flew out, biting the black shadow into two pieces in one bite. Suddenly, a painful roar and scream came from the darkness. Then Emilia saw the black shadow turning into a piece of arms in the air, and in a flash, it was burned to ashes by the flames.
This magical scene immediately made Emilia stop her. She looked at the golden fire ring under Zhou Yi's feet, and deep fear emerged from her eyes, but she did not dare to move forward any further.
Who knows whether the fire ring will attack me? If I accidentally get infected with this kind of thing, it would be too unfair to die.
Seeing Emilia looking at the fire ring under her feet like a ghost, Zhou Yi had no intention of comforting her. He just squinted his eyes, stared at the black shadow deep in the tomb, and laughed.
"It seems you are a guy from the Dark Council. How about it? Is this fire so comfortable for you?"
A fierce low roar suddenly came from the darkness.
"Don't be too proud, you guy. If you provoke us, you won't have any good endings."
The sound sounded quite powerful, but both Zhou Yi and Emilia heard from his words were full of timidity and cowardice, full of color and harshness on the inside.
"Many people have told me this, but I am still standing here well until now. So, Mr. Shadow. You can't scare me. I think if you don't want any problems, it's better to get out of the shadows. Let's have a good chat."
"I have nothing to talk about with humans." The person in the shadow is very tough and does not accept Zhou Yi's kindness at all. "Unless you call out what you have in your hand, you will be against the entire Dark Council."
"I'm just going against you, what can you do to me?" After hearing this, Zhou Yi immediately sneered. Threatening him, these people were really not qualified.
"No one can escape under the pursuit of the Dark Council, you made a wrong decision. Your friends and family will face our endless pursuit until all the hatred between us is washed away."
The shadow sounded far and near, and obviously he began to wander again. His gloomy and vicious tone stabbed people's heart like daggers.
Like a devil hiding in the dark, he curses his enemies with the most evil and filthy words. It makes people afraid, powerless, and eventually dies in regret.
He has done this for many years. But now, this practice is useless.
The flames were like surging waves in the sea, spreading layer by layer, spreading out in all directions. The shadows swam rapidly, but they were not as fast as the flames. Almost two or three breaths, the entire tomb was surrounded by layers of fire.
Some were screaming and some were roaring. But Emilia didn't see anything. She stood between the rings of fire in a cowardly manner, but she didn't notice that a pile of ashes dissipated in the corner with the wind.
The game is over. In this game, Zhou Yi won the victory. To be continued.
Chapter completed!
