Chapter 294 A Color Brighter Than Gold
"So what I thought was 'good luck' was actually a good harvest? Or a good harvest?"
The girl's voice seemed to still echo in his ears. The demon hunter, who had just awakened from "divine communication", clasped his hands awkwardly.
To misidentify the divine duties of a god is no less than asking someone to help call out the wrong name.
No wonder even Meliteli in her old woman form smiled.
Fortunately, He is a kind deity with a very good temper in three forms: a young girl, a pregnant woman, and an old woman.
Otherwise, with Ailin's behavior, it would not be an exaggeration to be struck to death by lightning.
"Yes, Goddess Meliteli is indeed a rare and kind god." The demon hunter thought.
otherwise……
How could He say and express at the level of the church temple that 'human beings do not need gods'...
Such an idea can be completely regarded as "blasphemous" no matter in various novels in the previous life or even in reality.
Therefore, even Ailin, who was born with a systematic upbringing and had strong doubts about gods, did not doubt Meliteli's idea of letting humans develop.
"The gods blasphemed the gods themselves. Is this also considered betrayal of one's own class?"
Aelin chuckled.
But then he thought of what Meritelli had said to him, and the cruel facts that had happened, were happening, and were about to happen.
The demon hunter's smile gradually faded.
"There's really no stopping..." He sighed.
The threat of the school's destruction during the Defense of Kaer Morhen had just been dealt with by King Haxor of Kaedwen.
There are still many wizards and nobles who still have ill will towards the School of the Wolf.
As a result, the "Convergence of the Spheres" that occurred when Hackso was resolved attracted the Wild Hunt, which had conquered all the worlds.
The strength of those Ain Els is simply not something that the current Aelin and Wolf School can deal with.
Once they find the Ancient Sea Fortress, the school will be destroyed in an instant.
There was no need for those sinister wizards and nobles to instigate the mob to launch the defense of Kaer Morhen.
And now.
The process of dealing with the Wild Hunt has just made good progress. Elland has been won over... No... With the royal status of Duke Mason, it can even be said that half of Temeria has been won over...
As a result, the ultimate disaster in the Demon Hunter world, white frost, which even the gods were powerless to deal with, suddenly appeared again.
The multiple-choice questions given by Meliteli, the weight on both ends of the scale...
Just thinking about it makes one breathless.
"Can't we do it one by one?" He gritted his teeth, "Aren't stories about dealing with minions and small bosses first, and then the big boss?"
"Can't you let me deal with the threat from the Kaedweni school first, then challenge a few Wild Hunts, and finally wait until my strength is almost improved before taking on a big boss like White Frost..."
"How can we just put all the pressure and all the enemies on us right from the start?"
……
"Whoo~"
After complaining bitterly, the demon hunter took a deep breath and tried to clear away the depression in his heart.
When no one is around, finding a tree hole to complain a few words can indeed help relieve stress.
“Reality is not a made-up story.”
"I can only choose to use all my advantages to guide the enemy into line up..."
"First come, first served, follow the order."
"Of course, the most important thing is your own strength. You must do everything you can to improve your strength as quickly as possible."
Thinking of this, the demon hunter opened the Demon Hunting Notes.
The treasure chests of the nine one-eyed ghosts lay quietly in the inventory, waiting to be visited.
Thinking of the golden light that merged into his body when he left the Kingdom of God, Ailin took a deep breath.
"Praise be to the Mother of All Creation, goddess of fertility, harvest and childbirth, eternal maiden, mother, protector of the crone..."
[Ding! The one-eyed ghost's treasure chest*9 is opened]
A dazzling golden light burst out from the treasure chest the moment the Demon Hunter system prompt sounded.
Followed by.
It is continuous golden light.
Ailin felt that his eyes were dazzled.
Gold, gold, gold, gold, gold, gold, gold, purple, gold.
Eight gold and one purple!!!
The huge harvest immediately swept away the gloom in his heart.
After all nine treasure chests were opened and emitted golden and purple light, the demon hunter couldn't help but hold his breath.
There are eight gold quality treasure chests and one purple quality treasure chest, so there should be nine cutscenes.
"I wonder if we can see who the real enemy of the One-eyed Snake Giant is?"
However, when he was staring at the nine treasure chests in front of him expectantly, something unexpected happened.
[Ding! It is detected that the quality of the treasure chest meets the requirements of gold/gold, the quantity meets the requirements of 8/7, and the type meets the requirements of system skills/system skills. Do you want to merge the treasure chest? ]
Ok?
The demon hunter was stunned.
He rubbed his eyes and carefully read the red words that suddenly appeared in front of him from beginning to end several times.
"Fusion chest?"
"The Demon Hunting Notes also has this function?"
Ailin exclaimed in surprise.
He always thought that the gold quality treasure chest was the highest level, but he never thought that there was such a thing as a fusion treasure chest.
But to be honest...
The demon hunter read the system prompt again.
It is already very difficult to open a treasure chest of gold quality.
Even though he would pray and praise Meritelii, the goddess of fertility and harvest, every time he opened a treasure chest, he would not be able to open a golden treasure chest four or five times out of ten.
Not to mention opening seven gold quality ones at once.
If the goddess Meliteli had not given him a blessing of fertility after he left the kingdom of God, he might have had to wait a long time to collect hundreds of treasure chests at once, and then open hundreds of treasure chests at once.
Ailin had the opportunity to see this function.
Even with his previous habit of opening treasure chests in small batches and testing the probability, if it weren't for Melitari's help, it's hard to say whether he would have the chance to see the appearance of this function in this life...
"And the skills are systematic..."
The demon hunter thought of the skill "Battle Cry: Fury" that he had unlocked last time.
"Perhaps only a monster like the One-Eyed Ghost Spirit, which once had a similar reputation, can meet the requirements."
Think of this.
The demon hunter couldn't help but sincerely thank him again in his heart:
"Praise be to the Mother of All Creation, goddess of fertility, harvest and childbirth, eternal maiden, mother, protector of the crone..."
As for whether to integrate?
What a joke!
The requirements are so stringent, and the probability is shockingly low, it's as if they are deliberately trying not to let people find out. How confused do you have to be to choose no?
The witcher couldn't wait to think about it.
next second.
The treasure chest in front of him was emitting golden light, and the light began to tremble almost at the same time.
Then, under the tremendous force, like mutually repelling magnets, it resisted and trembled and slowly moved towards the center.
Not only was the purple treasure chest pushed directly to the edge of the screen, but the extra eighth gold treasure chest, although lagging behind the other seven, was also moving towards the center.
The demon hunter felt that he could intervene in the process and stop the fusion at any time.
Even the eighth treasure chest can be excluded.
But Ailin thought about it and did nothing.
The eight golden lights were getting closer and closer, until finally, they almost overlapped.
The center of the bright light, as if unable to withstand some powerful force, suddenly collapsed into a black hole.
At this moment, the eight golden treasure chests suddenly stopped for a moment.
In an instant, he was sucked into the black hole.
Ailin's perspective suddenly fell into darkness.
"Ok?"
After two or three seconds, the black hole remained silent, as if it had completely banished his treasure chest to another world. This made the demon hunter gradually worried.
He even began to think back to the system prompt just now, whether there was a "probability of damage" content...
But after thinking about it, even if there is no "probability of damage" in the prompt, it does not mean that there is no actual damage.
After all, the Demon Hunting Notes doesn't warn about everything. For example, just now, someone broke into the kingdom of God due to a disagreement. Can this be described only as dangerous?
"Don't mess with me!" Ailin clenched his fists, not daring to blink.
Eight more gold treasure chests and the loss of eight gold treasure chests, this back and forth has caused more than a little loss to the demon hunter's strength.
fortunately.
Just as Ailin was worried like this...
The black hole has changed!
Silently, a faint red light shot out from the black hole.
Then within a second.
It quickly changed from light red to bloody and glaring.
Looking at this strange red light, the demon hunter seemed to be able to smell a faint smell of rust.
This vision...
The anticipation is aroused!
"嗤啦~"
In the silence, there was a loud friction sound as if a steel chain was being pulled by a giant.
"嗤啦~"
The red light became more and more dazzling, dyeing the entire black hole into a vortex of blood.
The smell of blood is getting stronger and stronger.
The sacred iconostasis seemed to have been transformed into the scene of some massacre.
next moment.
"boom--"
With a huge roar, a dazzling deep red light suddenly leaped out at lightning speed.
Before the witcher could see clearly what was in the light.
"Roar!"
Intense pressure mixed with violent roars came from the black hole that was dyed an ominous blood-red.
It was like a huge monster roaring and howling.
"What is that—"
The demon hunters were so shocked by the pressure that their brains went blank.
His whole body was stiff, like a stressed bird.
for a long time.
When the black hole hastily closed with a roar and the red light gradually dimmed, Ailin came back to his senses.
"What the hell is that?"
The faint pressure, the soul-stirring roar, and the thick smell that was as if immersed in a sea of blood...
That was definitely not a special effect, and it was definitely not the animation effect of the treasure chest quality changing from gold to red.
The witcher swallowed with lingering fear.
But then he thought that the Demon Hunting Notes might have snatched food from the mouth of that unimaginable monster, and he couldn't help but feel extremely curious about the thing in the red light.
But at this moment, the scene in front of him became completely dark.
"The Way of Beast Roar is a gift from the great Shagdarzab," an old voice came from the darkness, "He taught us how to use the power of giant beasts as 'humans'..."
Ok?
The witcher blinked.
Wait until you open it again.
There is already a circle of "people" around him, or rather, the cubs of the one-eyed snake giant.
After a moment of silence.
Aelin realized that he should be in the red-quality cutscene, and immediately perked up and looked around.
A huge pale animal bone supported an even larger gray-brown skin.
A subtle but strong sense of ancient pressure emanated from it.
Add to that the faint smell of dust mixed with the stench of freshly peeled fur.
It's very depressing and creepy.
The body of the One-eyed Giant is already tall enough, but this residence, which is similar to a nomadic tent, can accommodate thousands of huge One-eyed Giants.
And hundreds of cubs like Erin at the moment, whose size is only one-fourth that of an adult one-eyed snake giant.
"Praise to Shagdarzab, the god of roar, hunting and taming..."
More than a thousand one-eyed snake giants around suddenly shouted and praised devoutly. The witcher was stunned for a moment and then followed suit.
The smell, the sound, the picture, the pressure, and even the air that gently stirs the hair on my body.
The scene before my eyes was too real.
Ailin, whose brain had just gone blank due to the roar in the black hole, did not dare to regard everything in his field of vision as a cutscene.
"Praise to Shagdarzab, roar, hunt..." He shouted loudly, imitating the one-eyed snake giant cubs around him.
and many more!
The witcher looked up sharply.
I actually understood what the one-eyed snake giant said!
"Very good!" The old voice said softly, "Respect Shagdarzab. He brought us the Way of Beast Roar and the wild power to coexist with the world..."
Ailin followed the voice and went over.
A huge but very old one-eyed snake giant was standing in front of the huge animal bones.
It has a thin body, and its huge snake-like scales are no longer shiny.
Instead, it was gray, with gaps in many places, or even entire pieces missing, revealing the hideous flesh beneath the scales.
but.
The huge single eye on the old face, although a little cloudy, hides the light of wisdom.
And the look they gave to these one-eyed giant snake cubs was kind and gentle.
"Is he a wise man from the one-eyed snake giant tribe? A priest?" the demon hunter pondered.
"Garmendia," the old one-eyed snake giant called over a middle-aged one-eyed snake giant, "Take the hope of the tribe out to practice..."
"Yes, Chief!" Garmendia patted his chest respectfully and shouted in the direction of Ailin and the others, "Boys, let's go out and practice!"
"Dong Dong Dong~"
The ground was shaking violently.
Three or four adult one-eyed snake giants walked out of the tent with a cub.
"Wow!" Seeing this scene, Ailin couldn't help but exclaim in his heart, "Three teachers and one student? Is the teaching staff of the Cyclops Giant Tribe so strong?"
After sighing, he stood there waiting.
However, after a long time, the surrounding one-eyed snake giant cubs were all led out of the animal bone and skin tent, and there was no "person" to take him away.
"Could it be that these are all illusions? Cutscenes? Am I overthinking?"
The shaking of the earth gradually subsided.
Ailin looked around, hesitated for a moment, and then followed.
This was exchanged for eight gold treasure chests. Even if it is just a cutscene, not a single minute can be wasted.
At least take a look at what the outside of this Sky-reaching Tent looks like...
Why does a Cyclops cub need three or four teachers to accompany him to learn the art of beast roar...
"Dong Dong Dong~"
The light outside the tent was getting closer.
Just as he could vaguely see the green shadow of the grass outside, an old voice suddenly sounded behind him:
"Italiano, where are you going?"
