Chapter 638 Gloria (Two in One)

Li Shuyi has always followed Bai Xiaowen's lead, and Qiao Rui is not Bai Xiaowen's teammate, let alone raise any objections.

Bai Xiaowen used the S+ item: Book of Sublimation on the "Broken Slave Contract". Seeing the light shining, his thoughts flew for 0.1 seconds.

Originally, Bai Xiaowen asked to upgrade the reward for this S+ elite task, but the "big brother" behind the scenes refused, but in the end he was rewarded for upgrading, and the page of the gods was upgraded to the book of sublimation. It is worth paying an extra 10,000 power points for this.

From this point of view, the "big guy" behind the scenes should be in a good mood to get the hand bone of the god of death.

What Bai Xiaowen wanted to complain about was that this "big guy" might be a bit arrogant... He said he wouldn't give it an upgrade, but he gave it in the end.

A burst of light from psionic particles enveloped it, and then the light dispersed. The original broken slave contract has changed drastically.

[Powerful follower contract: S+ level prop, sign a contract with a humanoid creature below the leader template (including the leader template), making it your follower. The other party must be completely willing to sign the contract (not in a state of confusion, charm, dementia, etc., and must not have a sense of resistance), otherwise there will be a chance of failure, and the higher the level of the other party and the stronger the template, the higher the chance of failure. 】

There is another line of special prompts behind:

"If your template or level is lower than the target humanoid creature, the probability of contract failure will increase additionally. The greater the gap between the two parties, the higher the probability of failure."

Follower is a new term for Bai Xiaowen, so he inquired about the meaning of follower.

After completing the SS-level elite scavenger mission, Bai Xiaowen's title of scavenger rose to the intermediate level. Perhaps for this reason, the rules of the spirit world quickly gave an answer.

Generally speaking, the awakened person can choose a spirit world figure, or another awakened person to enter into a follower contract, making the other person his "follower".

Followers are different from summoned creatures. They have independent personalities and wills. They can use equipment, props and learn skills, which is equivalent to having an extra teammate. In addition, followers do not enjoy the spiritual power bonus of the master.

As the master, it is impossible to forcibly distort the followers' will to act. However, what the master controls is the power of life and death of the followers, as long as he has a single thought, he can kill the followers.

Also, if the master dies, the followers die with it. So in general, follower loyalty is nothing to worry about.

However, signing a follower contract is not an easy task. If the other party has the heart to resist, they need to sign the contract forcefully. This will have a chance of failure, unless the user's strength far exceeds the target.

Qiao Rui also added that if you use a follower contract on an awakened person, no matter how much stronger the opponent is, you can't force the contract. As long as the other party has the heart to resist, the signing is bound to fail.

"Put it away first... I'll think about how to use this thing."

Bai Xiaowen put away the powerful follower contract, and then looked at Goliath, who was frozen on top of the altar.

"After such a long time, it's time to look at Gloria's situation."

The three of them walked up to the altar and observed it carefully.

The exposed skin on Gloria's face and neck had already shown a strange dead white color, as if she had some kind of skin disease. The black air continuously circulated on her body surface, and every time it passed through a piece of skin, it would cause a large area of ​​skin tissue to die and fall off.

This is the terrifying power of the Death God's curse.

If it was another person, he would have been cursed by the god of death to rot all over his body, and he would not be able to die anymore.

However, on Goliath's skin, there was also a faint blazing white flame, constantly chasing the black air. When passing through necrotic skin tissue, the blazing white flame will make a "sizzling" sound, as if boiling oil is roasting the skin.

Although the flame has a purifying effect, after passing through it will stop the decay of the skin and turn it into a bloodless white, but this pain is creepy to think about.

Gloria has been standing here for a long time, during this time, every second is purgatory.

The whites of her blue eyes were bloodshot.

Bai Xiaowen stood opposite Gloria, sighed, and murmured in a voice that only he could hear: "I'm sorry."

At that time, Bai Xiaowen was lurking on the side, and Gloria was deceived by the fake prince Richard to get the sealed holy box. Bai Xiaowen and Li Shuyi are the only two people in the field who know the ins and outs.

If Bai Xiaowen had reminded her, perhaps Goliath would not have been fooled and ended up in such a miserable end.

However, Bai Xiaowen had scruples and chose to forbear. This is where he feels ashamed—after all, Gloria is one of the few noble people he has seen in the spirit world, kind, upright, and faithful...with all the western chivalry virtues in the usual sense.

[And she's pretty and has a good figure...] Bai Xiaowen added silently in his heart.

Of course, even if Bai Xiaowen had a strong sense of justice at the time and stood up to stop Goliath, saying that Prince Richard was a counterfeit, it would be difficult to gain Goliath's trust. If he gave up the stealth status of Night Crow Feather, he might be besieged jointly by Richard, Galantis and others, which was too dangerous.

With two elite side missions above S level, Bai Xiaowen will never allow himself to make mistakes after reaching the last step.

Having said that, how can I help Gloria so that I can feel better?

Bai Xiaowen stared at Goliath's blue eyes. Gloria was also looking at him.

"Hiss..."

A hoarse voice sounded from Gloria's throat, but unfortunately, it didn't make a sentence at all.

Under the double torment of the curse of death and the power of light in his body, this level 8 leader couldn't even speak a word, and his vocal cords were probably broken.

Bai Xiaowen let out a sigh of relief and said, "This shows that Goliath's actual condition is more serious than it looks. She not only has skin damage on the surface of her body, but her internal organs are probably tossed to death."

"It's so pitiful." Li Shuyi turned her head a little impatiently.

"Her soul is crying," Qiao Rui closed her eyes slightly, rubbing the center of her brows and said, "She wants you to do it yourself to end her pain."

Although unable to move or speak, Bai Xiaowen could also see three words from Goliath's blue eyes:

kill me.

"Okay." Bai Xiaowen exhaled, maybe killing Goliath and ending her torment is the best choice.

At this moment, Delifa's voice came from the Black Soul Stone, and it rang directly in Bai Xiaowen's mind:

"Master, I have to remind you that if you kill her, the power of the God of Death's curse will most likely be transmitted to you."

"Huh?" Bai Xiaowen was taken aback, and lowered his raised hand, "Are you sure? How did you know?"

"I have been analyzing the memory fragments of the vampire lord Marcus. During this process, my sealed memory has recovered a little," Delifa seemed to be a little different, and said softly, "The curse of the god of death entrusts the god of death Naraku's undying will will not disappear with Gloria's death."

"Then what should I do?" Bai Xiaowen asked.

"The master can choose to leave directly, the farther the better. According to my assessment, Goliath has the blessing of light power in her body, which will continue to wear down the power of the curse of death, and there should be a stalemate for a long time... Maybe by then, the curse of death Maybe the strength will be polished."

"If the power of the death curse is wiped out, can Gloria still live?"

There was a hint of helplessness in Delifa's tone: "Master, a mortal cannot survive a decaying body."

Bai Xiaowen frowned slightly.

Li Shuyi said in the team channel: "Xiaowen, I have an idea... Didn't you get a bottle of resurrection water before? How about killing Gloria and then using the resurrection water to revive her."

Bai Xiaowen shook his head and refused: "No, the resurrection water is too precious, it is equivalent to the second life of creatures in the spirit world, and it cannot be used just like that. Moreover, killing her will cause the curse of death to be transferred to us."

Bai Xiaowen is very sensible, and will not use up this precious golden prop just because of a moment of sympathy. He did feel sympathy and even sorry for Gloria, but not to the extent of desperately saving her.

When he got the resurrection water, Bai Xiaowen had an idea that this golden item should be reserved for Cecilia of Baishi collar as a guarantee.

Bai Xiaowen would consider using it in advance unless he encountered a benefit much higher than that of the resurrection water.

Rescuing Gloria, of course, has benefits, but the benefits are too low. If Gloria meets the conditions for using the "Powerful Follower Contract", Bai Xiaowen can consider doing so, and gain a divine champion knight as a follower.

However, the follower contract requires that the level and template of the target cannot be higher than that of the user. Gloria's level is as high as level 8, which is destined to not meet the requirements of the contract.

Delifa said: "If the master wants to end her suffering, she can also consider another way."

"Say."

"Master can transform Gloria into a death knight!"

Delifa said, "Didn't the master get a 'frozen heart' after killing the death knight Kyle? This is the source of the death knight's power. The master can put the frozen heart into Gloria's chest to replace Dead heart."

"And then? What about the death curse?"

Delifa said: "I can help Gloria absorb all the negative energy cursed by the god of death into the Frozen Heart. This is a great tonic for her and can speed up her transformation process."

After a pause, Goliath said: "However, helping Goliath transform into a death knight will consume soul essence. It is estimated that there will not be much soul essence left from the hundreds of points of soul essence that the master gained from fighting in the mausoleum. Moreover, even if the master can get Gloria's allegiance, there is no way to bring her out of Aaron's plane."

Bai Xiaowen nodded slightly: "End her suffering, and get the help of a high-ranking leader, the death knight, for the rest of the time... Can I pay for an S-level special treasure, the Frozen Heart, and a few hundred points of soul essence? I can accept it. Germany Lyfa, are you sure that the transformation will be successful?"

Delifa is very confident: "Master, don't worry, I have analyzed all of Marcus's memory fragments, which contain the knowledge steps to transform the death knight, and I will definitely succeed."

"Okay, let's get started."

Bai Xiaowen narrowed his eyes, took out the frozen heart, and summoned Delifa.

Delifa, a dementor banshee with a hot figure and cool clothes, startled Qiao Rui when she appeared.

"Brother Xiaowen has another summoned creature, how can he be dressed like this?" Qiao Rui looked at Delifa, as if she saw a legendary alluring sword...

"Uh……"

"emmm..."

Both Li Shuyi and Bai Xiaowen were a little embarrassed.

But after all, Qiao Rui is a few years older, and her ability to accept is stronger. After the initial surprise, she looked up and down Delifa's sexy figure, and said with a smile: "It's really an enviable golden ratio, and these measurements...men should like this."

Looking at Qiao Rui's playful smile, Bai Xiaowen felt inexplicably embarrassed to see her mother being smashed by her sister, this feeling is very absurd.

"Ahem, I'm a decent person. Delifa said that dressing like this will help her fight." Bai Xiaowen was serious.

"Oh, man."

Qiao Rui curled her lips lightly, "What did you call her out for?"

The previous conversations between Bai Xiaowen and Delifa were all through telepathy, and Qiao Rui didn't know about it.

Bai Xiaowen then explained that he was going to transform Gloria into a death knight.

Li Shuyi hesitated for a moment: "Will Gloria be willing to become a death knight? Her original profession is a divine champion knight."

Qiao Rui stared at Gloria's eyes, and said after a few seconds:

"Strange, she seems... very willing."

"Okay. Delifa, let's start." Bai Xiaowen ordered.

"I obey." Delifa took the frozen heart, then untied Goliath's armor, and transformed into a spiritual dagger in her right hand, which cut open against Goliath's chest, revealing the necrotic heart inside...

The scene was bloody, Bai Xiaowen, Li Shuyi, and Qiao Rui all turned their backs and walked down the altar.

"I still don't understand why Gloria is willing to be transformed into a death knight." Li Shuyi was puzzled.

Bai Xiaowen said thoughtfully: "It may be driven by unwillingness and hatred. After Richard's betrayal this time, her values ​​may be completely collapsed and reshaped. How loyal she was to the empire before, now she is so loyal to the empire." What a hate."

Qiao Rui lightly touched the arc of her jaw with one finger: "I heard that death knights are transformed from real knights. The stronger the faith of a knight in life, the stronger he will be after being transformed into a death knight. What kind of monster will Goliath be transformed into under the influence of it?"

There is also the bonus effect of soul essence. Bai Xiaowen silently added a sentence in his heart.

"Let's not talk about this first..." Bai Xiaowen changed the subject, "Sister, I remember you said... as long as we meet again in the spirit world, it means that we are destined. Can I invite you to join my team now?"

Qiao Rui giggled, this seemingly coincidental reunion, in fact, she came here on purpose, she believes Bai Xiaowen is also very clear about this. However, Bai Xiaowen is still very smart and did not take the initiative to expose it.

Qiao Rui was not hypocritical, and readily agreed: "Okay. But, does your team have a third place now?"

Bai Xiaowen said: "Our team was originally only level 2. After completing the mission of surprise attack on North County, we were short of a few hundred points of team experience to reach level 3. Now it is enough to complete two elite missions above S level in succession."

Bai Xiaowen checked before, the elite team has reached level 3, there will be a general option of "temporary team members", just in time to invite Qiao Rui to join.
