Chapter 1534: Chapter 1532 Suspicion

The Count wouldn’t be scared by this kind of jump-scare,

but a hint of fear still flashed in his dog eyes, after all, a tongue coated with corrosive saliva was stuck on the dog head, fully capable of piercing the brain.

Swish! Extreme dodge!

With the “Blood Demon” special traits acquired, the Count not only underwent a significant image transformation and increased basic attributes, but his reaction speed (blood activity) also greatly improved, managing to dodge just in time at the last moment.

The dog head that should have been penetrated, instead had a layer of fur shaved off.

The saliva that was stuck even continued to erode the skull, making a sizzling sound.

“This Count is someone you can hurt?”

Flustered and exasperated, the Count immediately executed according to the “Dodge Counterattack”, biting down fiercely at the position where the woman reflected in the mirror.

Crunch!

Only the sound of teeth clashing spread out, the Count not only failed to bite anything, but instead chipped a few teeth.

The dog face showed surprise.

Dark Blood also harms spirit body creatures, the Count thought it impossible to miss.

When the Count turned his dog head towards the mirror, the woman indeed was sitting in front of the dressing table.

“What’s going on?”

At this moment, the woman covered with embroidered cloth continued to extend several saliva-coated tongues, attempting to pierce through the Count’s dog head.

At the critical moment

Pa! The Count’s tail was tightly gripped by a strong hand and pulled back!

The more than two-meter-long dog body was instantly pulled away from the dressing table,

Immediately, the sense of danger surrounding him vanished instantly, leaving the Count in a daze.

“Count, don’t mess with the things here… this building is actually the ultimate location for this event.

Even the affected streets are full of evil spirits and monsters, let alone here.

These devices might be creations of the [Mysterious Craftsman], or practice-made items, infused with resentful aura, or even directly trapping evil spirits inside.

The secret of the dressing table should be related to the ‘Mirror’, the evil spirit’s body is sealed within the mirror.

As long as exposed to the mirror area, you will be attacked.”

After a brief explanation, Han Dong casually found a cloth to cover the mirror… turning to look at the Count almost couldn’t help but laugh.

Only then did the Count realize his dog head had a layer of scalp hanging off and was corroded by the acid, presenting a “bald” state.

The Count was so angry his teeth itched, even wanting to rush up and bite the dressing mirror to pieces.

“Don’t do anything careless~ if you accidentally make a loud noise, attracting those guys upstairs, it will really be troublesome… now is not the time to clash with them.

By the way, is the “Holy Blood System” unlocked now?”

“No~ absolutely no response.”

“The Holy Sword’s ability specifically to counter evil things is like cheating in the Ladybug Game… I estimate that in the game, you need to upgrade “Dark Blood” to the maximum level before the Holy Blood traits will appear.”

The Count scratched his bald head with a dog paw, trying to accelerate the regeneration speed, while also recalling one matter.

“That’s right! If there’s an opportunity in the future, this Count wants to go to the ‘Holy Level World’, try to find the source of Holy Blood! After all, the Holy Blood we got from the Hall Family is not complete.

The true inheritance and main bloodline should still be buried in the depths of the tombs in the Holy Level World.

What do you think? Interested in going there with this Count? According to your status as a Black Tower Employee, you should easily get tasks related to the Holy Level World.”

“I’ve considered it, but the Holy Level World and our world are essentially arch-enemies… even if they dare not infringe on the world level anymore, if I go to the Holy Level alone, I’ll definitely be targeted by countless craftsmen, even Titans themselves.

If we truly want to find the Holy Sword, which is the source of Holy Blood, Count, you should go there alone as the ‘God of Hades Representative’.”

“Ha? Me alone?”

After spending so much time with Han Dong, the Count long forgot the experience of solitary actions.

“Hmm… if you go directly from [World-Horror Dawn], naturally you won’t be targeted by the Holy Level.

As for the body aspect, since the collaboration with Handsome Jack has been achieved, Fate Points aren’t an issue, I will spend high prices to buy you a sufficiently powerful body.

Or you can directly ask the God of Hades for a body, and I’ll provide the equipment.”

“Reluctantly… fine! But this matter is still early, let’s talk about it later.”

Han Dong naturally could see the Count’s reluctance to act alone, but he always cared about the Holy Sword matter.

As his “Second Consciousness”, representing the right arm, the Count himself had enormous potential…

If comparing Dark Blood to a shield that ignores rules with rapid regeneration, possessing super high blood activity,

then the Holy Blood, which restrains all evil states and cuts down all worldly monsters, is the sword,

The comprehensive development of both will surely shape the ultimate state of the right arm, an indispensable part of Han Dong’s ascent to the throne.

According to the battle in the London Game, Han Dong also fully understood the King-Level existence- Titan from the Holy Level World, further connecting it to the origins of the Holy Blood from the Hall Family, estimated to be related to a uniquely fallen Titan.

If truly able to contact him, perhaps he could obtain complete Holy Blood inheritance.

…

After some rest combined with taking Healing Potion, Han Dong recovered to 70-80%, the remainder gradually returning to the peak state through Zombie constitution and nourishing with Fresh Blood.

Basement searching centered around the Count’s sense of smell commenced comprehensively.

However, ultimately a detail was captured by the Demon Eye.

Cautiously moving old items that might cause evil spirits to emerge or trigger curses, a passage only suitable for crawling was revealed.

Naturally, such matters had the Count taking the lead, the Bloodhound’s body navigating the passage easily, reaching a narrow Secret Room… after confirming no danger, Han Dong and Sally crawled over.

The Count displayed as if seeking credit, wagging his tail, “This must be that Ghost Box… seems like the Count’s luck is indeed not bad!”

At the center round platform of the Secret Room, a conspicuous red Wooden Box was placed, visible resentful aura floating on the surface… a lock hole remained on the surface, seemingly the item everyone sought was inside.

Upon attempting to touch it, immediately received a voice prompt:

‘Congratulations on finding the hidden treasure chest, opening requires consuming “Wooden Key” ×1’

“What kind of prompt is this? No direct explanation of what the treasure chest will open.

If the event goal- ‘Box of Resentment’ isn’t inside the chest, a Wooden Key will be wasted.

Then it’ll need returning to the street for another mission loop… that would really be wretched.”

Only one Wooden Key in hand, Han Dong dared not gamble.

“If guessed right, the ‘Mysterious Treasure Chest’ hidden within the building is definitely more than one… leave the chest here for now, let’s go upstairs and have a look.

If there’s no better option, then come back here.

Of course!

If possible, you could try getting an extra Wooden Key from another team’s hand.”
