The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

Chapter 1601 Huge Temptation

"Your experience today is really beyond expectations. I should have gone with you if I knew it earlier." In the study room of the apartment in Baihuayuan, Sylvia was also stunned after listening to Leo's previous experience. She was stunned for a long time, her heart could not be calm for a long time, and the excitement drove her to stand up from the chair and walk back and forth in the room.

She lost her composure not only because of Leo's identity and other issues, but also because Leo told her that the shell of an ancient abyss dragon was dormant below.

Compared to Leo, she is more aware of the value of the ancient abyssal dragon. If the ancient abyssal dragon is intact, she will not have any thoughts at all, but Leo told him that the ancient abyssal dragon is like The dragon cubs outside the altar of the castle also have only one body, and their consciousness has long since ceased to exist. To her, this is simply a gift to her door, so how could she not be tempted at all.

You know, even if it is a dead scale that fell from the ancient abyss dragon, as long as it is worn by her side for a long time, it can help her quickly improve her bloodline for a period of time. If she can peel off some flesh and blood, then she believes that her bloodline will definitely be able to She can be promoted to a higher level in a short period of time. If the ordinary flesh and blood are replaced with the flesh and blood of the heart, then it is not impossible for her to break through the life barrier in a short period of time and become an abyssal superior who is equivalent to a god.

Leo was very clear about Sylvia's thoughts at the moment, but he didn't say anything, just sat quietly aside, waiting for Sylvia's own emotions to stabilize.

After walking back and forth for a few rounds, Sylvia's agitated emotions gradually calmed down, and she walked up to Leo, stopped, and said, "Do you think the body of the ancient abyss dragon..."

Before Sylvia finished speaking, Leo interrupted her very seriously, and said earnestly: "I think you should calmly think about whether the body of the ancient abyss dragon is really important to you now. It's very important, don't be dazzled by the sudden and huge temptation." Then, seeing Sylvia's face show a little unswerving color, and said with emphasis: "The body of the ancient abyss dragon is coming to you now. It is said that the only function is to increase the purity of your bloodline, making your bloodline closer, and even surpassing the average abyssal dragon, but the question is, is the improvement of bloodline purity what you need most now? And it is still towards the pure abyssal dragon bloodline. Go on, do you really want to abandon your human body and become an abyssal dragon?"

A series of inquiries completely dissipated the unhappiness that had just risen in Sylvia's heart, and the excitement on her face also quickly subsided at this moment, replaced by calm contemplation.

Leo continued to say at this time: "The purity of your current bloodline has far exceeded your control over the bloodline. What you need now is the power to fully control the bloodline, rather than simply improving the purity of the bloodline of the abyssal dragon."

"You're right, I'm a little dizzy!" Sylvia took a deep breath, nodded, and said, "The current body of the ancient abyss dragon is like a sugar-coated poison to me, although The sugar coating on the outside will make me happy, but the poison at the core can kill me." She smiled wryly again, and said, "But this temptation is too great, it is the body of the ancient abyss dragon! And you can get it without any danger, let alone me, even those overlords in the abyss who know about it will probably be dazzled by such a big temptation, rush over immediately and poach it away, so as not to be Someone else took it."

"Actually, you don't have to worry about the body of the ancient abyss dragon being taken away." Leo reached out and held Sylvia's palm, motioning for her to sit beside him, and then said in a deep voice, "Think about the body of the ancient abyss dragon." Hundreds or thousands of years have passed since the body of the abyssal dragon stayed under the volcano, but it has not been discovered. It can be seen that the body can shield the prying eyes of the outside world, even the prying eyes of the gods. If there is no accident, then The specific body will stay under this volcano for countless years until it completely loses all its power and is burned by the lava of the leylines, or a consciousness is regenerated in that body, but this should not happen. Then, he paused again, and continued: "And even if it is discovered, I am afraid that it is impossible for people or even gods to approach that body in this world. Although that body is a dead body without soul consciousness, it is not It doesn't mean that it has no danger, whether it is the power contained in the ancient abyss dragon itself, or the forbidden power arranged by my predecessor and group, it is not something that ordinary gods can resist."

"Your predecessor?" Sylvia didn't understand for a while, but quickly recalled what Leo had said before, and suddenly said: "Oh, by the way, you said that the ancient abyss dragon was you The body after a certain rebirth of the previous body." Then, she looked at Leo with a strange look, and said: "Although I think what you said is true, it is still unbelievable, the ancient abyss dragon Your body is actually just one of the reborn bodies of your previous body, even an arrogant person would not make up such an unbelievable story."

Leo nodded, expressing his understanding, and said: "Don't say you don't believe it, even now I don't believe everything Qun Heyi said."

"You think he's lying?" Sylvia asked.

"No, it's just that what he said is so unbelievable, it makes people feel very fake, like telling a story," Leo seriously recalled the content of the conversation with Qun Heyi, and said, "However, that's what he said. The fake to the extreme content is just the most real, and when I was listening, I had a familiar feeling from the beginning to the end, just like listening to someone retelling my past experience, without the slightest sense of disobedience or discomfort The most important thing is that during the process of his narration, I can feel the power of the stone throne in my body produce a trace of abnormal fluctuations from time to time, as if being awakened by some memory fragments deep in the soul and resonating .”

After listening to Leo's narration, Sylvia didn't bother about whether Qun Heyi was fabricating a lie, but asked: "You said just now that He can have a way for you to regain the rebirth of the ancient abyss dragon. Memory, why do you refuse?"

"Because I think it's too dangerous." Leo said, recalling the proposal that Qunheyi gave him at the end.

"Is the memory itself dangerous?" Sylvia asked.

"Memory itself is one aspect. The method he said is to extract the residual consciousness of the predecessor from the ancient abyss dragon, and then inject it into my soul source, so as to awaken that part of the relevant memory, but whether it is the ancient abyss demon The power breath of the dragon, or the consciousness breath of the previous body are too dangerous for me now. Once I do that, it is up to me to regain that part of the memory, or which part of the memory occupies my consciousness. " Leo analyzed it calmly, and then said with a serious expression: "And there was something wrong when Qun Heyi made this suggestion."

"What's wrong?" Sylvia asked.

Leo said: "At that time, Qunheyi's self-proclaimed was no longer the plural of us, but me."

Sylvia frowned, and said, "Do you suspect that the group Heyi who made this proposal at that time has been replaced by the female Qun Heyi who was closely related to your predecessor?"

"It's possible." Leo nodded, and emphasized: "Not only the title, but also the feeling."

When Sylvia heard this, she said sarcastically, "Is it a feeling? It seems that your predecessor and that Qun Heyi are indeed closely related. Even if you have no memory, the feeling still exists."

Seeing Sylvia's rare jealous little woman's attitude, Leo couldn't help but smiled and didn't answer.

Sylvia also quickly returned to normal, and instead of continuing the topic, asked, "What are you going to do now?"

"What should I do?" Leo looked at Sylvia puzzled.

"What about your body?" Sylvia was dissatisfied with Leo's casual attitude, and said with great concern: "Didn't that group and one tell you that your current evolutionary sequence is wrong? Since it is wrong, naturally You can’t go on any longer, how do you plan to solve your physical problems?”

Leo tightened his grip slightly, and said in relief: "You don't have to worry about this, I already have a complete plan, now I just need to consider the implementation process, but that will have to wait until I fully absorb the information related to the evolutionary sequence. After knowledge." Then, he looked at Sylvia and said in a deep voice, "Compared to mine, your matter is more urgent."

"My business?" Sylvia was puzzled, "What's my business?"

"This ceremony of the Belmont family is not only important to the members of the Belmont family in the castle, but also to you," Leo said solemnly: "They can use this special ceremony to greatly improve their own bloodlines." Purity, you can also use this sacrifice."

"Didn't we just say that the most important thing for me now is not to improve the purity of my blood?" Sylvia frowned, wondering if Leo had amnesia, but soon realized the meaning of Leo's words, and confirmed Said: "You mean that this sacrificial ceremony can not only improve the purity of the blood, but also have other effects."

"If it were the sacrificial ceremonies performed by the Belmont family in the past, they would naturally only enhance the bloodline without any other effect, but this time the sacrificial ceremony is different." Leo carefully searched for relevant information in the brain database, While explaining seriously: "This time, the group and one meeting will use a special conversion ceremony, in conjunction with the Belmont family sacrifice in the lava lake. Although he did not tell me the specific details of the conversion ceremony, the evolution that has been injected into my mind Sequence-related knowledge mentions some content of this transformation ceremony, and through these contents, I found that there is an inevitable side effect in this transformation ceremony that should be of great help to you."

"What help?" Sylvia asked.

"Help you improve your control over the power of blood." Leo responded, and continued to explain: "According to those content records, during the conversion ceremony, if the participants of the ceremony have the same blood as the main body of the ceremony, then Participants will be brought into the power state of the leader by the ceremony until the end of the ceremony. That is to say, when the ceremony is in progress, your bloodline control will reach the control level of a normal abyssal dragon, although it is only temporary, But if you can decipher or memorize the mystery of control contained in it at this time, then even if the ceremony is over, with your ability, you should be able to quickly control the mystery through the power of the memorized blood and restore that control state among."

Sylvia also felt that it was feasible after hearing the words, but the specific implementation method still needs to be discussed.

While Sylvia and Leo were talking, outside Belmont Castle, on an open space beside the lava lake, the old Duke stood there alone, as if he was waiting for something.

Not long after, I saw the lava not far away churning up like a spring, and then the lava bulged up, gradually forming a human form, walking out of the lava lake, and came in front of the old prince.

The group in the form of lava men and a somewhat dissatisfied old duke asked: "The sacrificial ceremony is about to take place. If you don't make the final preparations, why are you here to summon me?"

The old duke lowered his head slightly, and said: "The ceremony has been prepared and checked repeatedly. There will be no problem, but I am still a little worried. I think that my distant relative and her husband should be brought here." , assisting the ceremony, maybe it was a mistake."

"Why do you think so?" Qun Heyi didn't directly explain the old duke, but asked rhetorically.

The old duke said with a serious face: "I feel that they came to the castle for some purpose. After they came, many things happened in the castle, and even the secret power of the castle's protection was activated, and they have been in various areas of the castle for the past few days. Walking around, I don't know what they want to do, are they setting some traps, planning to destroy the ceremony together with the resistance of the gods that may appear when the ceremony is in progress?"

Qun Heyi said calmly: "Since you are so worried, it is enough to drive them out of the castle before the ceremony. When the ceremony is in progress, the castle's protective power will be activated. At that time, they will not be able to enter the castle. Naturally, there is no way to hinder the ceremony."

"If only it were that simple." The old duke frowned and said, "I invited them here, and after they came, I also gave them the greatest authority, and reached an agreement with them to let them assist The ceremony is going on normally, but now they are being driven away, it is really, a little... hard to speak."

"So you come to me now because you want me to drive them away for you, right?" Qun Heyi asked.

"Yes," said the old prince truthfully.

Qun Heyi did not give any reply, but turned around and walked back into the lava. When it melted into the lava, a word came out, saying: "You don't have to worry about them, they will only help you during the ceremony, and will not give you money." You can even tell them the details of the ceremony, and with their cooperation, the ceremony will be easier to complete."

Hearing Qun Heyi's response, although the old prince didn't understand why Qun Heyi believed Sylvia and Leo and his wife, his inner anxiety was still calmed down, and he also considered listening to Qun Heyi's suggestion.
