Chapter 203: Chapter 183: The Top-Ranked Brother’s Gift
Christina closed her eyes and quietly reminisced.
It had been his reminder that had allowed her to avoid the bone dragon’s devouring in time.
She owed him a favor.
According to the logic of an Enchanting Demon, one could ignore such favors, but if she wanted to earn a large income, she had to continue cooperating with him...
Who knew that the Queen had followed her.
What would happen if the Queen saw that sea of gemstones, deep enough to drown one’s legs?
Christina suddenly became nervous.
He and his gemstones were supposed to belong to herself, even the Queen couldn’t take them away easily!
But was there a way to protect him?
Christina swiftly pondered.
The Queen’s voice suddenly resounded from the Void again:
"The noise just now seems to have attracted the attention of the patrolmen, what do you plan to do?"
Christina said, "I..."
"Are you going to notify him?" the Queen asked.
Christina was about to speak, but then she saw two figures leap over the wall and head toward the room.
One was tall and the other short, both dressed in priestly garb, one carrying a lamp, the other grasping a long sword.
"Who’s there?" the sword-holding priest called out.
"Your Majesty, I want to handle this myself," Christina walked to the window and looked outside.
As soon as she finished speaking, the twin horns disappeared from her head.
At that moment, she looked just like a naive and beautiful young girl.
"Is there something you need, sirs?"
The timid girl asked.
The two priests looked at her.
After a while, the one holding the lamp came back to his senses and asked, "Miss, what are you doing here?"
"The person I was meeting didn’t come, he probably abandoned me. Sirs, would either of you be willing to take me away from here?" Christina said.
"Please come out, we’ll escort you to a safe place," the sword-holding priest said.
He sheathed his sword and waved Christina over.
"Thank you," she said.
Christina pushed open the door and walked out, joining the two priests.
The priest holding the lamp suddenly pressed down on the back of Christina’s neck.
Christina’s body went limp and she instantly fell to the ground, unconscious.
"What are you doing?"
The Sword Priest exclaimed in shock.
The priest illuminated Christina’s face with his lamp and murmured softly, "Such a perfect girl, and the place so secluded, let’s have some fun here."
He reached out to unbutton Christina’s blouse.
A glint of cold light lingered beside his neck.
The lamp-holding priest was taken aback.
The Sword Priest, holding the blade, said, "Don’t touch her."
The lamp-holder laughed with a sneer, "You’re going to attack your own church brother for such a girl who could die at any time?"
He gently took out a card from the pocket of the girl’s blouse and looked closely at it.
The card read:
"Role Card: Slave."
—This was a female slave.
Perhaps a female slave newly born into this world!
"Unexpected... I’ve always wanted to keep such a female slave. I never imagined I’d find the opportunity here," the lamp-holder muttered to himself.
The Sword Priest looked at the girl curled up on the ground, her city-toppling beauty, the sorrow and pain between her brows, and then at his ugly and fat companion crouching beside.
A surge of brutality and impulse suddenly welled up in his heart.
Kill this guy!
This girl should be mine!
Gripping the long sword tightly, the priest readied to strike down but suddenly perceived a flash before his eyes and could see nothing else.
Then, intense pain surged through him.
The voice of his companion reached his ears: "Sacrifice."
All perceptions faded away.
The body disappeared too.
Only the lamp-holder priest remained on the spot.
He said contentedly, "With each action you take, you hesitate too much. You have no idea that you need to be decisive from the start."
"Yes, the killing just now was fantastic," a female voice responded.
The lamp-holder’s expression changed; he turned to look at the girl on the ground.
The girl was now kneeling, her clothes disheveled, she pitifully said, "Do something for me, and then you can do whatever you want."
The priest swallowed hard and said in a hoarse voice, "I promise you."
"That’s a nice sword, use it to pierce through your heart," the girl said, her voice soft and pleading.
The priest smirked dismissively, "I’m not a fool, why would I kill myself?"
"Alright then, please tell me, what is the Church currently doing?" the girl asked.
"The Divine wishes to establish an altar and call forth the presence of the Holy Camp."
"To do what?"
"Not sure."
"Okay, now go ahead and use that sword to pierce your own heart."
"Hmph, you think that—"
Before he could finish, the lamp-holder priest was surprised to find his body moving on its own.
Unconstrained, it walked over, picked up the sword, and pointed it at his chest.
"Shocked? Hehe, I never spoke to you just now; I was making a pact with your body, and now it’s fulfilling the terms of our contract," the girl giggled.
The priest was full of terror, his mouth opened to scream, but his lips were tightly sealed, unable to pry open even a slit.
His body had betrayed him.
Hands gripped the long sword, slowly piercing through his chest.
He fell to the ground.
The body quickly vanished from sight.
Only two Role Cards remained in place.
Christina first took out her own Role Card to see.
It had two lines of small print:
"You have killed a being of noble identity; your slavery may end here."
"You may change roles at any time."
She looked at the Role Cards of the two priests.
Both Role Cards were identical, with the same small print:
"Devout Priest."
"Lifespan: 39 hours."
"Use this shell card to assume the current role."
Just as Christina was about to store the Role Cards away, suddenly, two slender, snow-white jade fingers extended from the Void.
With a light pinch, they picked up one of the Role Cards.
Christina hurriedly said, "Your Majesty—"
"Following you here, I didn’t expect an unexpected gain," the Queen’s light laughter came from the Void.
"Unexpected gain?" Christina murmured in confusion.
"The Bone Dragon is a legendary Death Lord with numerous titles, and it is actually inviting beings from the Holy Camp to come over, truly a momentous occasion unlike any other. I also want to see."
As the words fell,
a slender and voluptuous figure descended, holding that character card and giving it a gentle flick.
"I can’t be too conspicuous..."
Her body’s black semi-transparent chiffon long dress vanished, replaced by a black priest robe that covered her entire body.
"Ah!" Christina let out a regretful sigh.
Although both were Enchanting Demons, the Queen’s body was simply perfected to the extreme, could be described as a Divine work of art.
She felt she simply hadn’t seen enough, even a sense of frustration and despair arose in her heart.
"You, you’re too young, you can’t look at me now," the Queen cautioned.
"Yes, Your Majesty," Christina felt as if all the emotions in her heart had been wiped clean.
Only then did she realize that she had involuntarily fallen for the Queen’s Charming Skill.
——And the Queen hadn’t even tried to charm her.
What strength this was!
Christina steadied herself, looking again at the Queen.
She saw how the Queen’s enchanting, graceful figure was thoroughly hidden within the priest robe, a wide cloak with a hood, fastened at the neck with a simple black cord, shading her face in darkness.
"How’s this?" the Queen inquired.
"No, Your Majesty, it’s still too conspicuous," Christina replied.
"It seems it must not be me after all," the Queen sighed.
Christina did not understand.
Not me?
What did that mean?
She watched as the Queen turned in place and suddenly transformed into a completely different woman.
This woman was so ordinary that Christina couldn’t muster any interest to even glance at her.
"Eh? Your Majesty, this is—"
"The ancient mystery of All Beings’ Harmonization, the foundational skill of our Enchanting Demon race."
"I’ve never heard of it, Your Majesty."
"It’s a secret of the Law only the Enchanting Demon Queen can learn. Once you grasp it, fate related to singing, dancing, and performing will surely converge around you. When you grow another 120 levels, I will teach it to you with ease."
After speaking, the Queen waved her hand at her and walked out of the house, soon disappearing from sight.
Christina stood in place and gazed for a while longer.
Only when she was sure the Queen had left did she let out a long sigh of relief.
It seemed the Queen was drawn to the secret of the Bone Dragon and had gone to investigate.
With that in mind—
She looked towards the large hole in the ground.
As long as the Queen didn’t return, the little brother should be safe.
...
Underground.
Two bronze hands gripped the Holy Shovel and dug rapidly.
Wu Xiaode stood to one side, silently estimating the digging progress.
He had to dig exactly beneath the Dragon God statue to enter that underground passage without triggering any other mechanism.
That was a challenge.
Luckily, the Holy Shovel possessed both "Dig Must Succeed" and "Silence" attributes, allowing him to proceed slowly and dig only after thinking carefully about the direction.
"A little bit over here," he directed once more.
The bronze hands adjusted their position slightly and dug diagonally forward.
Suddenly.
A translucent bubble floated in front of Wu Xiaode’s eyes.
The Book of the Dead flipped open itself, and on the Holy Walk Wall, a line of ice crystal small script emerged:
"This is a gift from the number one brother for you, please collect it when you’re free."
Wu Xiaode, frowning, thought for a moment before he remembered what the gift was all about.
When Christina had just appeared, the number one brother "Like-minded" asked to continue watching her and gave a gift on the spot.
Afterwards, he got busy with the Bone Dragon issue and had forgotten about it.
A gift, huh...
What could it be?
Wu Xiaode placed his hand on the Book of the Dead and said softly, "Collect the gift."
Whoosh!
A parcel, wrapped tightly, appeared in his hand.
There were two lines of text on it:
"To: Little Wu."
"Wishing your livestreaming room will grow and prosper quickly!"
What exactly could it be?
Wu Xiaode opened the parcel to find a small, delicate iron box inside.
He opened the iron box to look inside—
It was empty.
"..." Wu Xiaode fell into contemplation.
The number one brother had donated 1 million Soul Power, so he should not be playing such a senseless joke.
But even if it was a joke, it didn’t really matter.
It was just an empty box, if he couldn’t take this kind of joke, how would he survive in the martial world?
He held the iron box in hand, with thoughts already forming about what to say to the number one brother in the next livestream.
The Book of the Dead suddenly flew over, opening a blank page before him, and rapidly displaying lines of ice crystal small script:
"You have obtained Desmark’s Love Letter Storage Box."
"Rare, bizarre creation."
"This bizarre object possesses the following attributes:"
"Immortal: No force in the vast worlds can destroy this object;"
"Convey Love: By paying 10 Soul Power, you can send this iron box to anyone you wish for it to reach, and you can retrieve it at any time;"
"Storage: This iron box has about one thousand square meters of storage space."
"——Looking at this iron box, it’s as if you see the romantic figures from countless years ago, but their days have long turned into sands of time, and you must walk alone into a new Epoch."
Wu Xiaode was stunned.
——He hadn’t expected such an item.
"Like-minded" truly lives up to his reputation as a big-shot, casually giving away such a valuable treasure.
But did this big-shot have any other intentions?
Wu Xiaode pondered slowly.
Suddenly.
The two bronze hands stopped mid-air, no longer continuing to dig.
——They had revealed a wall in front.
Wu Xiaode quickly came to his senses, took the Holy Shovel, and lightly dug into the wall.
A brick was unearthed, revealing the view inside the wall.
Inside was a long passageway.
——He had dug to the right place!
