107. Book of Demons

Cecilia and the others had already moved from the second carriage to the first one.

Sean and Alfred seemed to be discussing something, while Cecilia and Sheena sat in the carriage, looking out the window, laughing and laughing from time to time. But the scenery of the Gobi Desert is nothing but yellow sand, loess or dry cracks, and for Sheena and Cecilia, who grew up in a rich and temperate northern environment, there is naturally a sense of novelty and excitement when they first see this kind of scenery, but they soon get tired of it, so they lack interest.

Cecilia, who turned around, suddenly saw a book with a black cover, and immediately became curious, and reached out to get it. But when she came across this demon book, she suddenly let out a scream, her hand suddenly retracted like an electric shock, and her whole face became extremely pale as if she was seriously ill, and Hina sitting next to Cecilia was even more frightened.

The sound of Sean and Alfred's conversation stopped abruptly, and even the carriage stopped, and there was a rustling sound outside, and the veterans had secured the whole carriage. It was only then that a voice came from outside: "Lord Sean, what happened?" ”

"It's fine." Sean's brow furrowed, his face grim and terrifying, "You guys keep going, and call me again when you get to the Setyns Oasis." ”

"Yes." The veterans outside didn't think much of it, and since Sean said that there was nothing wrong, then there must be no problem, so the convoy moved forward again.

It's just that inside the carriage, the atmosphere is terrifyingly silent.

"What's going on?" Alfred's gaze also fell on the black-covered book.

"The loot of Tyndsburg before, the relics of Muders." Sean sighed, walked over and hugged Cecilia, patting her on the back gently, Cecilia cried in a low voice as if she had found something to rely on, "I've been trying to find a way to destroy this book all this time, but I've used all means, and it doesn't work at all." ”

"Destroy?" Alfred was a little confused. "Wouldn't it be okay to just tear the book off?"

"This book is harder than your axe." Sean said angrily. If he could dispose of it so easily, he would have torn it up a long time ago, "This is the Book of Demons, a thing that shouldn't exist in this world. ”

The Book of Demons, this is something that Mudders has always held in his hands before, an epic piece of equipment.

[Book of Demons, Epic. Hardness 100, Stamina +15, Intelligence +15, Will +15, Permanent Effect "Soul Sacrifice": The soul of any bronze-level creature you kill will be devoured by this (every 100 deaths of enemies will permanently increase the maximum stamina, intelligence, and will of this equipment by +1). Permanent Effect "Demon Contract": By sacrificing a sacrifice, you can exchange protection from the Demon Lord's command (by permanently reducing the attribute value of this equipment.) Assist in summoning demons). Permanent Effect "Vitality Youth": The unwillingness and wrath of the soul curse you, but it also allows you to never suffer from the passage of time again (gaining an additional year of life will give this equipment -5 stamina, -5 intelligence, -5 will). Permanent Effect "Demon Sign": In the eyes of the demons, you are as bright as a beacon (any demons you defeat will be sealed into this book). Note: Every time a demon summoned from the Book of Demons dies, the page of the Book of Demons will be permanently reduced by one, but by killing a hundred enemies to sacrifice will permanently add a page of the Book of Demons, and the Kill Sacrifice cannot coexist with the Soul Sacrifice, the current volume of the Pages of the Demons: 1/31. 】

[Item Description: This is a book that should not exist in this world.] No one knows who it made it from. The only history that can be studied is that the book first appeared at the end of the Twilight Age. 】

The qualities and abilities of this book of demons, in Sean's opinion. It should definitely not be an epic piece of equipment, but an artifact. He hadn't taken the Demon Book in the game at the beginning, nor had he seen it, but he vaguely remembered that he had heard that it was an epic piece of equipment, and at present, it does say "epic" in terms of quality, but it is a piece of equipment with a growth nature, and Sean has never seen it in equipment below the artifact.

Even if the nature of this equipment is to rely on constant slaughter, it cannot deny its essence.

It's just that the stat amplification, which is the most important for players, is not important in such a real world. What really matters is the "Demon Contract" and "Energetic Youth", the former can seal the demon in exchange for sacrifice in this book, and when you use it, you can summon the demon sealed inside by tearing off the page, and the summoned demon will obey the orders of the person who uses the demon book.

It's just that the cost of this summoning is a bit terrifying - Sean has already seen that summoning a Purgatory Kobold requires a permanent reduction of five points in the three attributes of this equipment, which means at least five hundred human lives, and even the most low-level little devil needs a hundred human lives.

And the latter's ability is enough to make people crazy, at the cost of slaughtering 500 people every year, they can live in this world forever, and even maintain their peak strength all the time, I'm afraid there are really few people who will not be moved.

It's just a piece of equipment that keeps forcing people to kill. It's no wonder that the item description of this equipment directly says "This is a book that should not exist in this world", but its hardness of up to 100 points also makes it possible for few things in this world to destroy this equipment, and a bigger problem is that this equipment will continue to attract those creatures with demonic blood or demonic power to find trouble for themselves.

Sean didn't want to spend the rest of his life dealing with demons, creatures that were notoriously difficult. So this trip to the trade capital, in addition to buying a large number of slaves, Sean actually also has the idea of taking this book to the Magic Tower Chamber of Commerce or the Legendary Fire Hammer Chamber of Commerce to sell it, so he doesn't care who this book will end up in the hands of anyone, even if it is an enemy, it doesn't matter, it's a big deal to do it again in the future.

It's just that I didn't expect Cecilia to find this book and reach out to touch it. Of course, under normal circumstances, touching this book will only feel a special chill, at most, it will feel some resentment, but Cecilia's violent reaction is obviously not a normal situation, Sean is really curious, what Cecilia felt at that moment just now.

It's just that Cecilia doesn't say it, and Sean is of course not easy to reveal the scars, so he can only be comforted lightly. Maybe it's because it's too much of a stimulus. Or maybe Cecilia was tired of crying. In short, with Sean's comfort, Cecilia soon fell asleep. Sheena carefully wiped the sweat on Cecilia's forehead with a damp cloth, for nearly half a year, she had a good relationship with Cecilia, and Cecilia also tried to teach Sheena magic, but unfortunately Xiao Xina had no talent in this area at all, and Sean estimated that she could only develop in the direction of the [physics] career.

Of course. If she's interested.

"What are you going to do with this book?" Seeing Sean cautiously put away the Demon Book, Alfred couldn't help but ask.

"Sell it." Sean said without thinking, "Whether it's sold to the Magic Tower or the Legendary Fire Hammer, this book can be sold for a good price, for us at the moment." Gold is the most urgently needed thing, and other things are not particularly important. ”

Now that Sean had an idea, Alfred nodded and said no more. Anyway, he didn't know anything about magic and the like, and this magic book could make Cecilia scream with such fear, and Alfred was somewhat wary and wary of this book, he was afraid that his daughter would accidentally touch this book. And then I was scared out of the way.

Speaking of which. Have you thought about where you're going next? After hiding the Demon Book, Sean turned around and questioned Alfred.

"Where are we going?" Alfred was a little confused.

"You've been stuck in the lower bronze for a long time, haven't you?" Sean asked.

Hear Sean's words. Alfred was slightly stunned, and then said, "It's been some years. But I'm already so old, I guess that's the limit of my talent. ”

Sean rolled his eyes inwardly, if this was your limit, he would not have been able to run all the way to the village of Cerroda in the first place, and he had to ask Alfred to join. However, hearing Alfred's words at this moment, Sean also understood that he was puzzled by his own strength, and after reuniting with his daughter, his heart was relatively stable, unlike the endless motivation in the original game, and he was forced to constantly improve his strength, so he has been staying in the lower bronze until now.

"You can think about using external forces." Sean reminded, "Or, change the way you fight." ”

"External forces?" Alfred was slightly stunned, his eyes fell on the fangs of the flame lion beside him, with this weapon, he can indeed compete with the strength of the upper bronze, and even be able to barely compete with the lower silver.

"It's not this external force." Sean couldn't laugh or cry, he saw Alfred's gaze and knew that he was definitely trying to be crooked, no matter how powerful the equipment was, if the user's own strength was not good, it would be useless, "Have you ever heard of the Constructed Warrior and the Magic Warrior?" ”

"Nope." Alfred said dryly.

And he was so crisp, but he choked Sean a little speechless, and he didn't know where to start. After thinking for a while, he said, "The construction is actually a kind of thing that imitates the magic pattern. The constructor draws the magic pattern on a special drawing, and then engraves it on the person's body according to the lines of the drawing, so as to imprint the constructor on the body, so that people can exert this kind of power similar to the magic pattern, but this behavior requires very high physical fitness of people, and generally only warriors can hold on, so they are called constructing warriors. ”

"And the magic warrior, in fact, is similar to the construction of the warrior, but the magic pattern is drawn to the equipment, these equipment and the user will have a soul connection, except for themselves, no one else can use it, so it is called the magic warrior. However, this method has relatively high requirements for the user's magic power and will, and in my opinion, your will is enough, mana...... In fact, it can also be cultivated, but it takes a relatively long time. ”

Shawn had never heard of either of them, and it was as if a new door had been opened in front of him. It is generally believed that the reason why things such as weapons and armor are external forces means that they can never become the real strength of the user himself, so under normal circumstances, anyone will choose to construct a warrior. But Alfred knows very well that Sean is not a person who can talk casually, and he specifically pointed out the profession of "Magic Warrior", which means that this profession must also have a certain desirability, otherwise it will not be taken out by Sean alone.

After a moment's thought, Alfred said, "I'd like to hear your advice. ”

"Actually, the Magic Warrior is very good, but the growth is very slow." Sean is in a way, he is a person from the future, and he has a vision beyond this era for the general trend of the future, and it can be said that he crushed the magic warrior in the early stage, but when the magic technology was developed, the magic warrior became an extremely powerful profession, "In my hometown, the magic warrior has another name. ”

Alfred looked interested.

"Iron Man."

Iron Man. Alfred, well, it feels like better than God of War. Alfred sounded a little emotional. (To be continued.) )

PS: The third update, babbling, it's a little late. Judging from the current rhythm, it should be no problem to play two before 12 o'clock.
