Silas hesitated for a moment, and it was a thunderbolt outside the window that woke him up. He walked to the window, took the cold rain and rubbed his face, and became resolute and tough again. He turned around and saw Pinot Noir walking up the stairs drenched.

Pinot Noir smiled: "Hi Silas, what's the situation now?" ”

"Are you...... Pinot Noir? ”

"Yes, I am." After Qingyi subconsciously answered, he sensed that something was wrong, and frowned: "Could it be that I behaved strangely just now?" ”

"It's like being possessed by a ghost, and my temperament has changed drastically."

Qingyi hurriedly looked through the historical records. Sure enough, Xue Duo not only occupied his body just now, but also turned on the "seriously ill" mode - what a waste! The "seriously ill man" who can go hand in hand with heroes and gods is actually used in puzzle-solving missions with no combat elements, and the progress bar has reached 87%! Qingyi really wants to cry without tears, but now the situation is special, and I will settle accounts with Xue Duo later.

…………

When he first recruited the necromantic alchemist Strom......

"The ground powder of the 'Soul Gem' is mixed with the phosphor powder of the ghost wolf to turn it into a psychedelic potion, which I named 'Qingbi Dream'. The power of this psychedelic potion is controlled by changing the ratio of the two powders, the most potent of which can cause a mid-level NPC to hallucinate for three minutes. ”

"Psychedelics are useless against necromantic creatures. The fire of our soul is more powerful than ordinary beings, in other words, the strength of willpower and mental power, and it will not be easily caught in illusions. ”

"No, Your Majesty. Unbeknownst to you, 'Emerald Dreams' is the opposite of other psychedelic potions: the weaker the willpower, the easier it is to be exempted, but the more willpower the NPCs, the easier it is to get hit. This is because the soul gem powder contained in it is pure soul power, and any person will have a momentary thrill when absorbing it, and the stronger the soul, the deeper the feeling. ”

"The stronger the enemy, the easier it is to take effect? Wouldn't that be used to fight bosses? ”

"Ah, no, it must be the target of the soul fire exposed to take effect, because the 'Qingbi Dream' can only act directly on the soul, and if it is absorbed by the body, it will be restored to soul power."

That is to say...... You've been working on it for a long time, and you've come up with a psychedelic potion that can only target necromantic creatures, and this potion can't be used on living creatures, otherwise the other party will increase its strength?! ”

…………

The reason why Qingyi fell to the ground is as simple as that. The "Dream of Qingbi" is poured into the wine, and the living can drink it with infinite strength, and the necromantic creatures will instantly lose their ability to fight. The flood washed away the Dragon King Temple, and what was produced in his own country in turn pitted himself. "Qingbi's Dream" is time-limited, and Qingyi could have woken up on his own, but Xue Duo deliberately drank non-stop in order to let the progress bar of the "seriously ill person" go a few more points, resulting in Qingyi not being able to take back control of his body. If it weren't for Chardonnay snatching the wine bottle, Qingyi probably wouldn't have woken up yet.

"A lot seems to have happened while I'm unconscious?" It's hard to describe Qingyi's situation when he was sleeping, but let's focus on it for now.

"Chardonnay and Merlot have been caught."

Qingyi hurriedly looked at the record again. Well, the tasks have reached the third link of "fermentation"! It's really not immersive!

System prompt: In the process of investigation, the truth gradually becomes clear, but then the victims appear one after another, and the story is about to usher in the climax, please race against time to solve the problem and avoid the worst.

"Pinot Noir, listen carefully." Silas: "I'm a witcher. There have been multiple cases of disappearances in the town, and after many days of investigation, I believe that vampires have done it. I pretended to be a traveler, and I finally had a chance to sneak in, but unfortunately I couldn't protect you. ”

…………

Silas shook his head and walked over with a suitcase, as reluctant as if he was forced to complete some task: "You really don't have common sense to drink in an unknown environment. ”

……

"Our meeting tonight was purely accidental. This is the arrangement of fate, and it is difficult for us to see whether this arrangement is good or bad with the eyes of ordinary people, and all we can do is to face it calmly. Silas's voice is deep and magnetic, and there may be many stories behind it. He glanced at everyone and showed a rare smile: "Respect fate." ”

……

Silas spit out the wine in his mouth, reached out to test Pinot Noir's snort, then put his hand on his neck and left chest in turn, shook his head, and said, "Dead." ”

……

Silas's behavior was somewhat unusual, and he was rude and rude when others were chatting. Hearing Qingyi's greeting, he said without looking back: "I'll forget it, anyway, you don't know if what I said is true or false." I don't talk nonsense, you can also save time, win-win. ”

……

"Missing?"

Merlot interjected: "This is a port city, most of them left by boat." ”

Silas snorted coldly.

……

"Don't approach me casually." Silas said. The uncle had not relaxed for a moment since he entered the room, like a fried beast.

……

Silas had probably checked everything in the reception room and walked to the window to observe the weather: "There is a kind of necromantic creature called the living dead, who can walk in the sun. ”

…………

No wonder, if Silas were a witcher, everything would have made sense. Now that the profession has been decided, what Silas never leaves in his suitcase is ready to be revealed.

Noticing that Qingyi's gaze stayed on the suitcase, Silas squatted down very simply and opened it, and sure enough, the box contained weapons such as knives, daggers, folding crossbows, and several bottles of potions that made Qingyi subconsciously disgusted. The Witcher is a branch of the warrior class, and since it is a combat professional in the physics department, after all, it has not mastered special abilities, and it must be used to deal with supernatural monsters with the help of props. For Silas, the suitcase is a safety device for his life.

"The vampire casts [Enchantment] with direct eyes. Suffering from a combination of psychological suggestion and spelling, the maid is actually in a deep hypnotic state, mechanically completing simple instructions or reciting information poured into her mind. In other words, the maid is Wallace's mouthpiece, and most of them will be disposed of when they are used up. ”

"If Wallace is a vampire, the two of them are also unlucky."

Silas let out a long breath, his back slightly collapsed: "It's all my fault, if I am open and honest from the beginning, I can use weapons without scruples, and I will be able to protect them." ”

"You're just being cautious." Qingyi tried his best to comfort the other party: "You act strictly according to the rules of the demon hunter, don't blame yourself too much." Now what? At least two or more vampires are waiting for us. ”

Silas inserted the props into the lining of his coat one by one: "Not waiting for us, waiting for me." Pinot Noir, they think you're dead, you hurry away. ”

"Aren't we in a partnership?"

After opening the pistol magazine to check it at the light, Silas responded: "I'm not looking for cumbersome cooperation." ”

"Wouldn't it be safer for you to leave with me, and wait for you to find a helper and then come and take down the vampires?" Qingyi insisted on lobbying Silas. This quest is a multi-branched ending, and it is not necessary to defeat the vampire, and escaping with the survivor is also considered a mission success, and a portion of the reward can be settled.

"Maybe Merlot and Chardonnay weren't dead." Silas stood up and put on his hat. At this time, he exuded a bearing that he had experienced a hundred battles, and his eyes were burning.

Silas then walked up to the third floor alone, with a sonorous step, announcing his visit to the vampires.

Xue Duo stretched out his hand from the shadow and wrung the water in Qingyi's clothes: "Host, don't you stop him?" ”

"I've said everything I need to say, do you want me to break his leg?"

"Then won't you help him?"

"I'm not in the same camp as him, and it's not easy to explain to the dark eyes if I help." Qingyi walked to the terrace to admire the fountain: "Wow, this is really a work of art, I definitely don't believe it if you say it's not a vampire design." ”

With the sound of explosions, breaking wind, cutting, gunshots, and screams coming from upstairs, the system prompts that it is long overdue: enter the final chapter of the hidden quest "Mysterious Invitation" "Present".

System prompt: The wine is brewed and finally ready to be presented on the table; The secret is revealed, and it is finally about to be revealed to the guests. Go to know the ultimate truth, whether the future is good or bad, must wait for you to witness.

The rain outside also stopped, which was quite appropriate.

Qingyi brushed her wet bangs and walked up the steps to the third floor. He was greeted by Wallace, who was slightly surprised: "Pinot Noir, you're not dead?" ”

"Just overdrunk." Qingyi smiled.

"Pinot Noir, you came just in time, you are the ultimate survivor and have the right to know the truth."

Wallace regained his impeccable smile and led Qingyi to the banquet hall on the third floor, which opened directly to the terrace and had a panoramic view of the garden. There were four men and women dressed as celebrities but with blood stained bodies sitting in the banquet hall, and when Qingyi appeared, except for the one who was seriously injured and couldn't stand up, the other three all stood up and applauded warmly, and their smiles were not fake: "Welcome to the 'cocktail party'." ”

"Seriously injured one, lightly injured four? With this kind of record on the enemy's home turf, Silas, you're a great witcher. Qingyi sighed.

Silas couldn't hear it anymore, he was torn apart to make the vampire who prided himself elegant use such a rough technique, he must have hurt the vampire so badly. And Merlot's body was lying in the corner, with blood stains remaining on two small holes in his neck. After calculation, all three guests except Qingyi died, and it stands to reason that the rating of the mission will not be high.

As Qingyi looked around, Wallace began to diligently explain the forbidden game of the Bloodline, the drinking party.

The venue is a vampire's mansion. The organizers rotate for each issue, and the organizer of this issue is Wallace. According to the number of people attending the feast of the Blood Clan, the organizer captures the corresponding number of humans. Let the living take the "Qingbi Dream", and then coax them into saying that it is poison, and only the only victor who kills each other can get the antidote.

Fighting causes humans to secrete adrenaline, which in turn increases body temperature and blood flow, in short, it cooks the blood, and "Qingbi Dream" is a vital seasoning that brings out the umami of the dish. And just as some diners in the human world like to watch celebrity chefs cook face-to-face, vampires love to watch humans fight each other. The organizers designed the mansion with a large number of mezzanine and secret rooms, and disguised one-way mirrors as mirrors at any cost, so that vampires could enjoy the fight from all angles. In order to make the show more enjoyable, the organizers also have to rack their brains to stimulate human contradictions and promote conflicts.

When the fight is over, the vampires feast on the remaining blood of the corpse, and the winner is either put to death or simply licked off the blood from the wound to be free. If a vampire is quite fond of the winner, they will invite him to be their family.

After listening, Qingyi applauded lightly: "This is indeed a good pastime, both for you and for me." ”

"After learning the truth, you can still talk and laugh with us, are you the prince of any country?" Wallace held a dagger in his left hand and a golden cup in his right hand and walked towards Qingyi.

Qingyi replied: "You only value blood, but you don't know that the most important thing is always the soul." ”

The throne rose in the shadows, and the lights in the mansion were extinguished in an instant.
