Dominate the Treacherous Realm
Chapter 918
12+19=31. (Note)
Jenkins picked out a dice and threw it out again. This time the luck was still very good, it was 16, he continued to walk forward, watching the surrounding situation as he walked.
The slate under his feet was stained blood red to remind Jenkins where he needed to go. The various buildings on the street are roughly the same. There will definitely be unique buildings, and ordinary buildings, probably the people inside will take out the syringe... at least Jenkins hopes.
After stopped, this time it was facing the door of the two-story dilapidated building on the right side of the street. This house is obviously better than the old woman’s house just now. Not only is the brick color of the building house darker, but more importantly, the door is stuck in the door frame without leaving any gaps.
"As soon as I look at it, I know that the status of the townspeople living in it is different from the one just now."
Jenkins said in his heart, and then knocked on the door as he did just now. After a while, a sound came from the door, but the other party did not open the door:
"whats the matter?"
The voice of a man should be very old.
"I want some dice."
He is very honest.
"A foreigner?"
The person inside the door asked in doubt, but without Jenkins' answer, he said again:
"A foreigner."
This is a positive sentence.
"Yes, I am a foreigner, can you give me some dice?"
"Of course, but you need help to do something. I am a pharmacist in the town. If you help me get something from the well in the backyard, I will give you 5 dice."
"Backyard? How do I get to the backyard?"
"Of course it is from the front door to the backyard."
As he said, the door creaked~ a crack opened. Jenkins tilted his head for a while and shook his head decisively:
"Sorry, I won't do it."
There are not many 5 dice, he doesn't want to enter the homes of the residents of these small towns. Of course, if you pay too much, you still won't choose to help the other party, because more dice represent more risk. He will only think about it if the reward is in the range of 7 to 15.
"Then, do you want to consider buying something from me? I also accept those dice."
A piece of cardboard was handed out from the door. After Jenkins took it, the door immediately let go. Jenkins did not see the pharmacist from the beginning to the end.
The cardboard is the price list, but it is ridiculously used to illustrate the price with pictures. The left side of the cardboard is drawn with a different number of stick figures dice, some rows of dice are densely packed together, some are loose; in the middle of the cardboard are rows of equal signs parallel to the dice on the left; on the right side of the cardboard is For different numbers of medicine bottles, the size and shape of the medicine bottle are also different, and the position of the medicine bottle is parallel to the equal sign.
"What does the medium-sized prescription bottle mean?"
"Blood clotting potion type II. If you accidentally get scratched by a monster in the town, this potion can save you from a **** curse below the average level. One bottle can be used twice."
"What about the small Erlenmeyer flask?"
"Contain the potions. After some things in the town die, the corpses can be made into dice. If you don't know how to process, you can just sprinkle the potions directly. Use a bottle once.
The pharmacist responded fluently.
"In other words, the first line of the cardboard means that 15 dice are exchanged for two bottles of blood clotting potion type II and one bottle of containment potion."
Jenkins understands.
Not all potions are divided into models. For example, there are four models of blood clotting potions, which means that the square bottles on the cardboard have four different sizes, and the containing potions have only one size, that is, there is only one model.
Jenkins then asked about the meaning of other bottles separately. Among them, the most expensive potion was worth 300 dice, which was a type IV escape potion of the five-pointed star bottle, which could directly allow the user to leave the town. The lower-level escape potions allow the user to directly advance several numbers.
There is also a detoxification potion in the potion, with a total of six models, and different models detoxify different types of complex toxins. Among them, the "Blood Mosquito Curse" that Jenkins encountered in Beldiram is actually classified as a toxin here, and it can be eliminated with type I to III detoxification potions.
"The creeps that have fallen into the material world [Curse of the Blood Mosquito] did not originate from this ghost place, right?"
thought in his heart.
In addition, the metal syringe that the old woman asked Jenkins to use just now, and the blood sampling bottle for blood draw, are also provided by the pharmacist here, and the price is very cheap, a set worth 1 dice.
The pharmacist admitted that the blood sampling bottle allows Jenkins to collect dice from himself. But because I don't know the disadvantages of this collection, Jenkins didn't buy it.
In the end, Jenkins didn’t even buy the escape potion. Instead, he spent 9 dice and purchased a bottle of containment potion separately. He wanted to try his luck. After all, since the pharmacist said there were monsters in the town, he would definitely be able to meet it. .
The containment potion is an Erlenmeyer flask, and the liquid is burnt yellow, like urine. But there are some blood streaks in the burnt yellow, so it looks like blood in the urine.
As for other potions, Jenkins didn't buy it because of the limited number of dice in his hand. Fortunately, although there were only three pharmacists in the town, some townspeople also stocked some potions in their homes, which could be bought by Jenkins, a "sordid stranger".
It’s just that it’s much more expensive to buy potions from the townspeople than from a pharmacist.
Chapter 2133 The Yard Without Doors
30-9=21
Saying goodbye to the pharmacist and starting again, the dice that Jenkins threw again showed the number twelve, which was still above the average. Although the [Destiny Stage] failed after the puppet theater due to over-stimulation, Jenkins still seemed to have good luck.
The length of the stone slabs on the streets of the ancient town is very exaggerated. Basically, two stone slabs are the distance of a house. And because the buildings on the left and right sides are strewn together instead of facing each other, each stone slab actually corresponds to a certain door.
After the third throw, Jenkins has walked a distance of close to 40 buildings, very close to the next intersection of this street. He can even see that there is a T-shaped intersection next, and he can only choose to go diagonally to the right or diagonally to the left.
After stopping this time, he was on the wall of a certain building on his right, so he could not enter. On the left is the yard separated by a slanted fence, which is as dilapidated as the street, filled with all kinds of mess. Jenkins even saw the crooked chicken coop near the fence, but unfortunately there were only some bones inside, not the original creature.
"Is this the empty space for the townspeople on this street to raise chickens?"
Jenkins thought.
He then looked at the yard and saw a well near the wall of the house next to the yard. The head of the well was covered by a big stone, because the edge of the well was very low, so the big stone almost blended with the ground.
After hesitating, Jenkins walked into the courtyard without a door to the well. First, he felt vaguely, and after confirming that he didn't feel any danger, he carefully bent over and removed the large stone slab at the head of the well.
When Iguchi just showed a crack, he immediately smelled a foul smell, like rotten eggs. As the smell appeared, some green mosquitoes flew out of the well.
This is the first extra creature on this street that Jenkins has come into contact with besides the old woman and the pharmacist. These strange things are obviously not friendly, and after flying out of the well in groups, they immediately pounced on Jenkins.
But then flames emerged from Jenkins' pores, burning the bugs clean. The worm did not disappear completely after being burned, but turned into some blood-red pus dripping onto the ground. Judging from the smoke from the ground, the consequences of being stung by these insects may be serious.
The pus did not disappear on the ground for a long time, so Jenkins immediately thought of the containment potion he had just purchased. But the containment potion is worth 9 dice. These green mosquitoes are so weak that Jenkins is worried that they can't make nine dice at all, so he hesitated and didn't use it.
After solving the mosquitoes, I continued to move the stones. Unexpectedly, this is not a dry well. The water almost rises to the edge of the well. The dark well water barely reflected Jenkins's reflection under the dim light of the surrounding moss and dirty walls.
then the reflection spoke:
"Do you yearn for blood? Are you longing for power? Then it's not as good as..."
The slender blood-red tentacles stretched out from the well water, and the top of the tentacles resembled the front end of a blood sampling device.
"Then let me get you free."
Jenkins said, reaching out and grabbing into the water, and immediately lifted it out of the water after he caught the physical substance. It was a soaked whitish thing that looked like human skin, with tentacles extending from the back of the human face.
did not give this thing a chance to speak again, the green light and golden light flickered in the hand together, the human skin screamed, and the tentacles behind the face immediately clung to Jenkins's arm.
"Don't kill me! Don't kill me! Don't you want to know the secrets of this town?"
The way the human skin speaks is strange.
"Of course I don't want to know."
Jenkins said, ignoring the black bruises left by the tentacles on his arms, calling out flames, and under the combined action of the magical power, life power and flames, the skin finally stopped moving.
Without hesitation this time, he directly poured the containment potion on the human skin. The scorched yellow potion fell, dyeing the yellow human skin after leaving the water surface into blood red, and then the human skin began to shrink tightly, and finally left five blood red dice in Jenkins's hands.
"Oops, I still lost."
he said annoyedly.
The human skin disappeared, and the phantom of the well water also disappeared, revealing the real underground scene.
The well is not deep, and the silt is piled up at the bottom of the well, and it exudes a more terrifying smell than the smell of rotten eggs just now.
Although I can't see the specific situation of the bottom of the well with a single lens, there is obviously something at the bottom of the well.
Jenkins would not be so stupid to jump into the well. He turned around and searched in the yard. He found the bamboo pole in the middle, the broken potter's wheel, the rope stained with mud, and the bucket with two and a half boards missing. He called the creation pencil. After coming out, I drew the hammer and hand saw in the form of my own painting, and used rough woodworking skills to repair it a bit.
Then, I first searched the bottom of the well with a bamboo pole, and then reluctantly scraped a bunch of suspicious rags from the bottom of the well with a bucket.
Most of them have been damaged by the years and moisture, and they can no longer be recognized. What can be recognized is a dry bone with a lot of bones, and a blood sampling bottle grasped by the dry bones of the hand. In addition, mud There are two scattered dice and a bullet inside.
Withered bones and blood sampling bottles are nothing special, the two dice are owned by Jenkins. The bullet is not an ordinary metal bullet, the bullet is slender, and the whole has a strong yellow aura. Just the warhead itself is already considered a numbered item.
"This should be yours, right?"
He asked the bone on one side, but the other party was already dead, it was impossible to answer the question.
So the bullet was also taken by Jenkins, but he buried the dead bones and the blood sampling bottle in the yard, so that Jenkins would not feel guilty if he took the other party’s relics.
20+5+2=27
The things left in the yard are all debris, and the treacherous realm cannot be infinitely long, and Jenkins can't delay too much time. After processing the dry bones, set off again. After throwing out the dice, the number shows 7. Although the results this time are below the average, but fortunately the number of 7 has exceeded the length of this street, Jenkins can choose the next way.
Although both the left and right roads are optional, Jenkins leaned out and took a look before starting to walk. The blood-red mist was permeated on the road on the right, which looked quite suspicious. There was no fog on the road on the left, but in the darkness far away from the street, I could barely see something stuck in the middle of the road.
"The road on the left is not a dead end road, right?"
Jenkins thought hesitantly, but finally chose to go left. The blood-red fog on the right road gave him a rather unpleasant feeling, so for safety reasons he still went to the left first.
Chapter 2134: The Old Woman’s Transaction Catalogue
stepped forward again in the dilapidated streets of the town. After stopping this time, the door beside him belonged to that kind of ordinary building. After knocking on the door, the outstretched head was another old woman. She also asked Jenkins to donate her blood or inject another blood.
Jenkins still chose to inject blood, and then saw some bad pictures again, these pictures are two young teenagers fighting for a young and beautiful girl. Although the picture was not given to the end, the blood color that appeared in the heart of the teenagers had already indicated that the next progress would not be a comedy.
Although the picture I saw was uncomfortable, it would not hurt the spirit of Jenkins's strong soul. But the suspicious blood injections did have an effect on Jenkins' body.
His body is already close to the World Tree itself, but being close does not mean the same, so theoretically immune to all toxins, but there are some exceptions. These suspicious bloods are the exception, although they still cannot kill Jenkins, nor will they permanently maimed him.
But Jenkins felt that while his own spirit increased slightly, his flesh and blood had also changed because of the injection. This is a change that is extremely difficult to detect and almost harmless, that is, Jenkins's extreme sensitivity to the spirit of life can make him feel such a change.
To put it simply, because of the influence of the blood, his body will be extremely vulnerable to changes from the outside world. This is of course a good thing for polymorphism. For example, Jenkins can turn into a mouse faster during the duration of the effect, and even try to transform into a creature that could not be changed in the past.
But in the same way, those negative influences are more likely to affect him. As a world tree, he himself should not be affected by the negative changes of his flesh, but there is the power of [Scarlet Mayfly] in this paradox. This terrible thing happens to be aimed at the flesh and blood.
"The difference machine throws the power of [Scarlet Mayfly] into this treacherous place, but it is really just right. It is an opponent of this kind of enemy, but you can't relax for a moment."
Jenkins sighed, then looked around:
"Speaking of which, where might the scarlet mayfly be?"
In the first five treacherous realms, the power of the beast of evil appeared at the end of the treacherous realm. Even if Jenkins wanted to avoid it, he could not escape successfully. Therefore, he now has no hope that he can avoid the Scarlet Mayfly here.
"The bell-ringer said that the differential engine did not change this paradox, but merely set a trap. Where would the trap be?"
injected blood through a rusty metal syringe for the second time and described what he saw to the old woman. Jenkins got 4 extra dice. Therefore, when starting again, the number of dice in his hand is 26+4=30. (Note)
Although there are many in number, it is still far from the end of the town. Jenkins doesn't know whether he has walked one-half of the distance or one-twentieth of the distance, so he must be careful.
In addition, before leaving the door of the old woman, Jenkins wanted to know if the old woman had any extra items that could be traded because of the pharmacist's words just now.
It's a pity that the other party didn't give Jenkins a chance, so he directly scolded Convenience "Despicable Outlander" and fell heavily on the door. Jenkins did not continue to betray himself, but continued to set off.
continued to set off and threw the number 11, and after advancing 11 large slabs, Jenkins did not first look at the building on his right, but looked forward.
When he chose the direction to turn at the intersection, he vaguely saw something blocked in the middle of the street. Now I finally saw what it was. It was a simple roadblock made of wood. The thick wooden columns were sharpened and tied together and placed on the ground.
No one was seen in front of the roadblock, but a sign was hung with 10 dice painted on it, and a rough wooden box was placed under the sign.
"This is... tolls?"
Jenkins was shocked, feeling that this scene was a bit ridiculous, but then he looked at the box under the wooden sign:
"I don't know how many dice there will be."
He thought to himself, but he was not stupid enough to do the robbery of the box, besides, the roadblock was not within the distance this time, and probably only the next time.
After stopping this time, the gate of the building he encountered was on the left side of the road. Although it is still a small building on the first floor, it is no longer an ordinary residence this time. There is no door panel at the gate, which means that you can enter at will, and the architectural style does not show any clues. Although it is different from the house style of the two old women, it is generally not distinctive.
walked in with a backpack and a sword, calling out candles to light up the dark interior, and found that there was no furniture except for some slanted wooden shelves on the wall.
There is some thin dust on the ground, but at least it is not as dirty as the street. Jenkins turned around and saw a trapdoor that was almost integrated with dust on the ground. He hesitated repeatedly and opened it.
As the trapdoor gradually opened, a strange smell of blood and alcohol rushed up directly from below. Jenkins didn't like drinking, and he didn't like blood. He suppressed his nausea urge and opened the door completely:
"How come you encounter a disgusting smell almost every time in a treacherous world."
went deep into the basement behind the trap door, only to realize that there was a wine cellar below. The blood-red liquid was packed in delicate dark brown glass bottles, corked with oak corks, and stored in a wooden box filled with soft straw.
Each wooden box is hung with cardboard to mark the price and function of these blood wine dice. But because the wine cellar is unattended, there is no commentary, so Jenkins can't understand these sticky drawings very well.
