Tome of Blood

Chapter 356 -12- Sacred and Eternal Realm

Traveling so far, Charlotte is quite familiar with the Holy Tome of Blood.

The supreme artifact of this blood race appears in the form of a book, and its skills are described in words. When many skills are used, they will also be displayed in the field of vision, just like the system in the novels of the previous life.

In particular, the ability [Divine Countermeasure] activated by Charlotte at the beginning of her journey, text will appear every time she uses it.

But now, no.

Charlotte looked at his body.

Although she had just been engulfed by the divine power of the Gorefiend Grand Duke, she was unscathed, and even the noble dress was intact without a single wrinkle.

As if... the tingling pain when he was swallowed by divine power just now was just an illusion.

etc……

illusion?

Charlotte's heart moved slightly, and suddenly she had a bold guess.

She communicated with the Holy Tome of Blood and tried to contact the Castle of the Dark Night, but later found that she could not open the spiritual realm at all.

Dark Night Castle...disappeared.

As if it never appeared.

By this time, Charlotte finally realized that something was wrong.

It's not just [Countermagic] that has a sense of disobedience.

To be more precise, there was a problem with the Holy Code of Blood itself.

Charlotte remembered the "crimson sea of ​​stars" that unfolded when she detected the blood descendants when she just entered the banquet hall.

She was distracted and did not enter the Dark Night Castle to perform the Summoning of Blood, but just having this idea, she naturally unfolded it.

wrong……

This is not right.

The crimson star sea is an ability attached to the summoning of blood. Without the summoning of blood, it should be impossible to unfold it.

The Dark Night Castle cannot be expanded...

Counterdivinity also has no text description.

All these abnormalities gathered together, and finally made Charlotte realize something.

"It's an illusion..."

she muttered to herself.

illusion!

Unknowingly, she was drawn into a fantasy world with spiritual magic!

Moreover, I am afraid it is still an illusion constructed by her own spiritual world!

Because it was an illusion, the magic countermeasures were fake at all, so there was no text description as usual.

Because it is her own spiritual world, the Dark Night Castle, which is the embodiment of her spiritual world, naturally cannot be summoned!

Thinking of this, Charlotte once again looked at the "Duke Blood Demon" in front of him.

The ancient and vast divine power surrounds him, and the evil and terrifying divine power is as deep as the sea.

However, when Charlotte calmed down, she found all sorts of doubts about the "Duke Bloodfiend" in front of her.

Charlotte still remembered the scene when the Balrog Valarocca was broken.

At that time, the entire sky seemed to be burning, a doomsday scene...

But now, the blood demigod, who is obviously more powerful than Vala Roka, didn't even destroy the entire banquet hall.

Charlotte doesn't think this is a manifestation of Shinhwa's ability to perfectly control its own power, because the opponent has already exploded its divine power, and it is impossible for the explosive divine power not to destroy ordinary buildings.

Unless... this is an illusion.

"Blood True Ancestor, what about your strength, have you given up resisting?"

"Great Duke Blood Demon" sounded like thunder, and looked down at her from above.

But Charlotte calmed down.

She raised her head, looked at "Great Duke Blood Demon", and narrowed her eyes slightly.

She didn't know who it was who pulled her into the illusion.

But since she disguised the illusion with her spiritual world, he naturally wanted to get information from her.

Or... let her do something.

Looking at the aggressive "Duke Blood Demon" in front of him, recalling the other party's attack on him just now and the condescending provocation now...

Charlotte... probably already knows what it is.

"It's True Ancestor Liberation... the person who used the illusion, wants me to use True Ancestor Liberation!"

"No...or more precisely, I want to see my bloodletting power!"

Thinking of this, Charlotte's gaze towards the "Duke Gorefiend" has completely regained his composure.

Now that she knows the purpose of this illusion, there is no need for her to use the power of the true ancestor's liberation.

The next step is to find a way to unravel this illusion.

"Duke Bloodfiend" seemed irritated by Charlotte's attitude.

The vast divine power burst out suddenly, and the entire banquet hall fell into a dark red world in an instant.

"True Ancestor of Blood! Unleash your power! Fight me!"

he roared angrily.

Charlotte shook her head:

"You are not Grand Duke Gorefiend, you... are just a phantom in an illusion."

"Roar--!"

The Gorefiend Grand Duke roared angrily.

The crimson divine power erupted again, turning into hot lava, rushing towards Charlotte.

Charlotte didn't move.

She quietly watched the magical lava attack, quietly watched it engulf her body, and quietly watched her body burn in the flames.

However, when the flames disappeared, she was still intact.

A fantasy is a fantasy.

Perhaps when she didn't realize that this place was an illusion, she might still be hurt, but when she realized that this place was just an illusory world, she would no longer be able to be affected.

With this in mind, Charlotte no longer paid attention to the "god" in front of her, but began to look for a way to leave this illusion.

There are many ways to leave the illusion.

The most simple and rude thing is to break it open with your own spiritual strength.

But Charlotte didn't intend to use this method.

Her own spiritual power is actually not that strong, if she wants to use this method, she still needs to use the divine power of blood.

After knowing the purpose of this illusion, she did not plan to use the divine power of blood.

In addition to this method, there is another method, which is to find the source of the illusion, the intersection of illusion and reality, and then actively wake up.

Thinking of this, Charlotte was lost in thought.

I... When did I fall into the illusion?

Meet the young nobleman?

Stepping into a ballroom?

Or... when entering the manor?

No……

I'm afraid it will be earlier.

This illusion is not perfect. Now that I think about it, there are actually many loopholes, and what Charlotte needs to find is the initial loophole.

Charlotte thought of [Divine Countermeasure] again.

As the master of the Holy Tome of Blood, the power that Charlotte can really exert is far stronger than her own power. Any attack on her may cause the Holy Tome of Blood to counterattack.

Especially the spiritual realm.

Charlotte's spiritual realm was obviously protected by the Holy Tome of Blood. Back then, even the Duke of Blood couldn't interfere with her mentally, so the only thing that could really make her enter the illusion was a power stronger than the Duke of Blood.

That is magic.

A kind of divine spell that makes the [Divine Magic Counter] of the Holy Tome of Blood ineffective.

So... When was the last time [Counter-Divinity] didn't have a text description?

Charlotte was lost in thought.

She quickly had an answer.

"church……"

Charlotte muttered to herself, her eyes gradually clearing up:

"It's the church, when I visited the church yesterday..."

"Or, to be more precise, when I entered the prayer room and met the High Priest of the diocese!"

Charlotte's memory quickly flew to yesterday, to the Lutetia Cathedral, to the moment she stepped into the prayer room.

She saw the High Priest of the New Moon Diocese, and she felt the dazzling holy power on him. Her [Divine Magic Counter] activated by itself, and she was unscathed under the illumination of the holy power...

At that time, she saw... the sun!

Charlotte suddenly raised her head and looked out the window.

I saw a blazing sun rising slowly, illuminating the darkness.

The Grand Duke Gorefiend was gone, the dark red divine power was gone, and even the banquet hall was gone.

The golden sun shines on the world, and in Charlotte's field of vision, there is only a big golden sun and a white world left.

Burning stinging pain came from all over the body, and accompanied by the stinging pain, there was also strong dizziness, and the familiar bloody text appeared in front of his eyes——

["The Holy Code of Blood" has detected a divine ritual that is being performed——]
