Dominate the Treacherous Realm

　　 The gift of Miss Magic hanging on his chest, the six-pointed star pendant, has been fully activated. This gift is very versatile, can be used to assist the ritual, can serve as some scarce ritual symbol, and even cooperate with divination.

　　 But in the hands of Jenkins, it has only one effect. With the completion of the charge, the purple energy beam spewed out like a light cannon, and it was completely unexpected that the great ape with this trick would be vaporized out of his entire head in the next second.

Chapter 2137 The Battle Sister

　　 Jenkins broke free from the shackles of the giant ape's hands and jumped back to the ground, and then watched the huge headless corpse crash down, but soon turned into a pool of blood, and then dyed the dusty ground red.

　　 "It would be fine if the containment potion just kept for now."

　　 Jenkins thought in his heart, then took the magic sword back, and walked back to the nun sitting beside the altar with the sword:

　　 "That's all right?"

　　 "It's okay, it's a simple and beautiful fight."

　　 She stretched her hand to the side of the nun's dress, took out a small bag from nowhere and handed it to Jenkins. In the bag are 50 blood-red dice, which is the reward for this mission.

　　 Jenkins did not open the small cloth bag and count it carefully, but took a closer look at the bag and confirmed that it was exactly the same as the one given by the bell ringer:

　　 "Do you know the bell ringer under the clock tower?"

　　 Otherwise, the townspeople in the town have cloth pockets of this standard.

　　 "Recognize."

　　 "The bell-ringer told me that I shouldn't explore the secrets of the town."

　　 "Then you should listen to him and leave here as soon as possible."

　　 said in a cold voice that didn't seem to have any emotions, Jenkins nodded and pointed to the cardboard again:

　　 "Try injecting blood this time."

　　 While talking, he stuffed the pocket just now into the backpack.

　　 The nun touched her side again, and she found out a metal object exactly like the syringe in the old woman's hand. The same rust is mottled, and the liquid inside is the same dirty.

　　 Jenkins took the syringe from the nun, then plunged the needle into his arm:

　　 "Do you know the intruder some time ago? A steaming machine."

　　 he asked while pushing the piston.

　　 "I know."

　　 The nun said very few words, but the voice was unexpectedly good.

　　 "The bell-ringer said that the other party set a trap for me here. Do you know what a trap is?"

　　 The cold liquid has entered Jenkins's body, and with the abnormal increase in spirit, he can already see the illusion before his eyes. But this does not prevent Jenkins from chatting with the nun, and he can't be bothered by this simple thing.

　　 "That machine is also afraid of the town. Its trap is near the outer exit, but I don't know the specific location."

　　 "If so, that would be great."

　　 While watching the illusion that appeared in front of him, he asked:

　　 "So, do you have a map of the town here?"

"No."

　　 "Then where is the current position, how far is it from me out of town?"

　　 "If you can find the nearest road, you will only walk one tenth from the clock tower to leaving the town."

　　 "So, the number of dice in my hand is enough to support me leaving here?"

　　 "The closer the town is, the more complicated the journey. In the absence of a map, even if you get all the dice I can provide, you will just leave it reluctantly, and even reluctantly leave depends on luck."

　　 Jenkins nodded clearly and frowned, but said nothing. The two stopped talking, and the church fell silent. It took five minutes before he sighed and returned the syringe in his hand to the nun:

　　 "Then I started to describe what I saw... Isn't that a story about you?"

　　 The illusion he saw was the story of a nun who lived in the modern and modern eighteenth century. In the illusion, the nun was not seen at all, but Jenkins thought it was the nun in front of him.

　　 "Yes, you injected my blood."

　　 "Your blood? You just came here too?"

"The time and space of the town are completely distorted, the savior, maybe when I was alive, it was very close to the time you lived in, but when I came to the town, the town had just been established. What you see is already for me It's a long time ago."

Jenkins sighed and did not ask any more. He described in detail the scene of the complex love, hatred, and hatred that he saw about love, religion, country, friendship, and family. The nun listened quietly, and when he finished speaking, He just handed out the cloth bag with 30 dice again, without expressing any opinions.

　　 That is a long time ago for her, although it can be an aftertaste, but it is not worth worrying about those things.

　　 Jenkins looked at each other regretfully, and then pointed to the last line:

　　 "I want to challenge you."

"are you sure?"

　　'S voice was still cold, and after getting another confirmation from Jenkins, she slowly stood up. It was only then that Jenkins realized that the opponent's height was about the same as his own.

　　 The nun stretched her hand aside, like Jenkins took out the holy sword of bone from the air, and took out a blood-red metal long stick from the air.

　　 It was the first time Jenkins saw a person who used a long stick as a weapon in this world. He didn't dare to care about it. He threw the magic sword aside with his luggage and instead used the more familiar bone holy sword.

　　 "If I kill you, you lose."

　　 said the nun.

　　 "I want to kill you too, can I win?"

　　 "No, if you can really beat me, I will surrender."

　　 "Then can I surrender too?"

"no, you can not."

　　 The nun replied silently, rushing towards Jenkins on tiptoe, but when Jenkins swung her sword to meet her, the other party suddenly disappeared into the air.

　　 Jenkins was taken aback, blinked, then turned to look sideways:

　　 "It's better not to be invisible and fight me directly."

　　 He gave advice very kindly. He swung a sword and collided with the air, and there was a sound of metal strikes, sparks bloomed in the air, but the spin even disappeared. The wind whizzed the marks made by the sword blade, and the long stick and the nun disappeared again.

　　 Generally speaking, in unarmed combat and cold weapon combat, although Jenkins has a special unarmed combat course, but because of the [hero] ability, he has more experience in the use of cold weapons.

　　 In close combat, regardless of skill, one's physical fitness and reaction speed also play a key role. The nuns in the town don’t know what kind of creature they should be classified into, but although the opponent’s cold weapon use is slightly stronger than Jenkins, but the physical fitness is far inferior to him, so in this battle, Jenkins knew that from the moment of the fight. It's a win.

　　 The nun demonstrated the ability, in addition to excellent use of cold weapons and short-term invisibility, she can also use a blood-red light to add an "enchanting" effect to her weapon. Although the long stick with blood-red light cannot destroy the Bone Sword, every time the two weapons collide with each other, Jenkins can feel the blood in his body boiling.

　　 In addition, the nun is also proficient in some simple blood-related spells. If someone else is her opponent, she might be defeated because she did not expect Master Cold Weapon to chant a curse, but Jenkins manipulates his life force to affect his own blood, so he is not afraid of those curses and negative effects.

Chapter 2138: Shops and Beggars

　　 The match between the two did not last long, and finally ended with the nun's initiative to admit defeat. They didn't even leave any obvious scars on the other side, as if it was really just a training session just now.

　　 Jenkins panted and stood still, while the nun still maintained the kind of spiritual calm state, retracted her weapon and sat back on the chair next to the altar, and then handed the reward to Jenkins.

　　 He had 18 dice before entering the church. He gave up the mission of exploring the church and only did three missions. Now there are a total of 17+51+30+100=198 dice.

　　 Jenkins did not leave immediately, but wanted to buy some good things from the nun.

　　 Of course, he did not forget why he chose this way, so he asked after putting away the dice:

　　 "I just saw a man in a blood-red robe near the corner of the street. Is that a resident here?"

"Yes, this is a special event that belongs to this street. If you can find that person before leaving the confines of this street, then you can get a list of special items. If you can't find it, in Before you leave the town, you will be even more disgusted by the townspeople, and all transactions afterwards will have a 5% debuff."

　　 means that you have to pay more dice to buy things, and the number of dice you get from performing tasks decreases.

　　 "Then do you know where that person is?"

　　 The nun sat there quietly without speaking, just shook her head.

　　 There are many tradable items in the church, even more than that of the pharmacist. Jenkins is now wealthy in his hands, but he is not willing to spend money indiscriminately. He is more inclined to find items that can allow him to leave the town as soon as possible, or have a significant increase in his strength.

　　 chose the last one. He used 60 dice and bought a wooden compass that looked very shabby. Of course, the pointer was made of metal. There are not too many patterns on the compass, nor does it look like an antique should have the vicissitudes of life and time.

　　 Although this compass also has a strong aura, it can only be used in the town and cannot be taken away from the treacherous realm. It can be at every intersection, roughly pointing out the closest road to the town.

　　 But because of the worn-out compass, the path pointed out may not be correct. But for Jenkins, it's better to have something than nothing, and he's gamble on luck.

　　 "Speaking of which, I don't know if I can point out the way to leave with [Unknown Road Ahead]."

When he bid farewell to the nun, he was still thinking about it, but when he returned on the road, he did not use this ability. After all, all the abilities can only be used once. This very useful ability may be able to play a key role in the decisive battle with the differential engine. .

　　 The length of this street is about the same length as the street on which it started, and Jenkins will be able to leave after about 3 or 4 more dice rolls. But he was actually really curious about what kind of exchange items the guy in the blood-red robe could provide, so when he threw the dice, he still silently thought that the next number to be thrown shouldn't be too big, he thought Explore this street more.

　　198-60=138

The number of the dice thrown by 　　 is 10, which happens to be the middle value. Jenkins waited for the slate in front of him to be stained blood red before setting off again. After stopping, the building directly opposite was an ordinary building. After knocking on the door, the sticking out head was still an old woman:

　　 "Despicable Outsider".

　　 After the familiar speech, there was no surprise. There was no one in the blood red robe. He injected blood to earn 4 dice and set off again.

　　137+4=141

　　 Jenkins is very worried that he will throw 20 and shorten the number of actions he takes on this street. But this time he actually threw out a 1, which was never expected.

　　 "Although I don't want to leave this street so quickly, is it too much to throw 1?"

　　 He shook the small cloth bag in his hand and took a step forward, then turned his head to look at the ruined building without a door.

"this is......"

　　 stepped back to the side to expand the field of vision to facilitate the observation of the overall view of the building:

　　 "Shop? The functional buildings in this town are really complete."

　　 There are two floors in the building, but when you enter it, you can see that the stairs leading to the higher floors have been broken and blocked by clutter such as cabinets.

　　 Inside the store, there is only a dimly lighted oil lamp on the counter facing the door. The light of the oil lamp is only the size of a soybean.

　　 A young man in a black robe stood there blankly. Except for this neat yellow solid wood counter, other areas in the store are full of garbage and skeletons. In some places, broken legs of furniture or parts of drawers can be seen. Obviously, the cabinets and shelves that should have existed here have long since disappeared in history.

　　 Jenkins came to the counter and saw that the other party did not respond, so he tapped on the table with his fingers. The expressionless young man looked up at him, then took out a cardboard from under the counter and placed it on the table.

　　Like the pharmacist, only sales services are provided here, and there are no tasks that allow Jenkins to earn dice. There are many types of goods, but before asking about each stick figure icon, Jenkins is more concerned about the map.

　　 But I scanned it from top to bottom, but I didn’t see any signs that looked like a map:

　　 "Is there no map?"

　　 he asked unwillingly.

"No."

　　 "Aren't you a shop?"

　　 "The shops in the town are not limited to ours, outsiders, please respect the rules here."

"Ok......"

　　 The most expensive item in the store is the "cleansing potion" worth 200 scarlet dice, which was not available to the pharmacist Jenkins met. This kind of medicine can return the state of a foreigner to the moment he entered the town. In other words, it is even possible to change the subtle influence caused by frequent injection of blood through a metal syringe.

　　 But obviously, Jenkins can't afford it.

　　The store’s most special product, or service, is a kind of exchange service, which can exchange dice for another currency, which is sin currency-[blood currency]. But the exchange ratio is 100 dice for one piece, which is ten times the difference from the price of 1 blasphemy for 10 dice that Jenkins asked from the bell ringer.

　　 This aspect shows that [Blood Currency] is more popular with the townspeople than [The Seed of Blasphemy]. On the one hand, it shows that although the bell ringer is friendly, he is definitely a profiteer.

　　 The dice in Jenkins's hand is enough to exchange for one, but he still has to be active in the town, so he didn't choose to exchange it. Of course, it is not that he did not buy any goods in the store. He reluctantly gave up the space item [Ancient Town Backpack] worth 67 dice. Jenkins chose the old compass pointer worth 40 dice.

This pointer can repair the dilapidated compass that Jenkins just bought at the church for 60 dice. This will not only allow the compass to be repaired, make its function of guiding more clear, and even allow the compass to be taken out of the town and continue to be used in the material world. .

　　Because of the newly added pointer, this compass has the ability to "search the holder in a small area for items that the owner wants to find". The "small area" is actually only the area of ​​a shop, not even as large as the living room of Jenkins's house.

　　 But at least when you can’t find your key or wallet before going out, it will be very convenient to use this compass.

　　 Jenkins also wanted to get some information from the shopkeeper about the people in blood-red robes that he saw at the intersection just now, but the shopkeeper was obviously not as friendly as the church nun, and he kept silent to answer Jenkins’ questions.

　　 So Jenkins tried to ask the other party whether to buy the items, only to get the answer that "the items of foreigners are dirty, I can't buy them and sell them".

　　 After thinking for a while, he took out the bottle of blood wine in the backpack that was bought from the wine cellar with a dice. This is the property of the town itself, but the other party bought it at a price of 5 dice. Although the same is rare, the price has doubled five times.

　　 "The prices of some items are completely different on different occasions. Maybe I should buy some extra items with the opportunity...Wait when I have more dice and think about it, it's not suitable to think so much now."
