Game of Gods

Chapter 148: The price of strength

Views:

The absorption of vampire vine comes at the expense of reducing the host's physique.

The priest's basic attributes are the lowest among all professions, and he has the ability to self-recover. Cultivating vampire vines must be the cheapest and fastest.

So when he thought of this, Yuan Chenfei regretted leaving the blood-sucking vine to himself.

But it doesn’t matter. The quality of things like vampire vines is not very important. It’s too late to get one for Chu Liu after the third stage starts.

While he was thinking about it, Liu Li came over.

Throw him a knife.

Phoenix tail knife.

"Here you go." Liu Li said.

"What are you doing for me? This is your trophy." Yuan Chenfei pushed it back to her.

"I have the Blade of Nothingness. Although the Phoenix Tail Sword is very strong, it cannot match my tactics." Liu Li answered.

Liu Li knew very well that no matter how good the equipment was, it had to be suitable. Although the Phoenix Tail Sword is powerful, it is not suitable for use by itself. Divine weapons that cannot be used with tactics are all rubbish.

Yuan Chenfei also understood and said: "Then sell it and exchange for some blood to strengthen yourself."

"You really don't want it?" Liu Li asked.

Yuan Chenfei shook his head.

Liu Li was unhappy and got angry, stood up and left.

"She was still angry when I gave her the artifact. You women are really unpredictable." Li Zhanjun said with a smile.

Xia Ning curled her lips: "You know nothing about a man who doesn't understand amorous feelings."

Only women understand women.

Although she was not familiar with Liu Li, Xia Ning could see some clues after spending two days together.

At this time, Liu Li was sitting on a big rock and sulking.

Xia Ning came over and stood beside her.

"Sit." Liu Li pointed to the empty seat next to the big stone and said to her.

"Thank you, no need, I like standing." Xia Ning said.

"Yes, I heard Brother Fei say that you are a girl who can stand instead of sitting down. Why? Does it make your legs look longer?" Liu Li smiled.

In fact, Liu Li is not short, but compared with Xia Ning, who is 1.83 meters tall, there is still a gap.

Xia Ning did not answer Liu Li's question, but simply said: "Really? When Feizi and I were together, he rarely talked about other women. I'm really not used to his evaluation of me."

"But he left you in the end." Liu Li said.

"I left him." Xia Ning replied.

"But it gave him the reputation of being a heartless person."

The two women looked at each other at this moment.

There was a hint of competition in his calm tone, like two lions fighting for territory.

Xia Ning suddenly laughed.

"Are you complaining for him?" she asked.

Liu Li blushed slightly and was about to say something when Xia Ning said, "Fei Zi is a very interesting person. He has always felt that a real man should have a heroic demeanor, a decisive temperament, and a deceitful mind. He has a ferocious mind. So I asked him to choose the heroes in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms. His favorites were Cao Cao and Sima Yi, not Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang. But the interesting thing is that even though he recognized such people, he himself did No. He is the kind of person who wants to be a cold and selfish person, but can't do it well. I still remember one time, he and I were walking on the street. It was snowing heavily, We saw a beggar on the roadside. Feizi said that the beggar was actually quite rich, at least richer than him. His poverty was a disguise, so don’t pity him. But when we walked over, he Looking back at the beggar, I walked over and gave him five dollars. I asked him why he did this even though he knew the other person was not really poor. He said, no matter what, in this cold winter weather, when he went out to beg, he was subjected to a lot of pain. His sin is real. He has paid so much, but he should also gain something."

Speaking of this, Xia Ning smiled: "Look, this is Feizi. He always wants to be a cold person, but he can't do it. This makes his behavior always full of contradictions."

Liu Li understood what she meant: "So this is why Brother Fei is willing to take the blame for you?"

"I'm not explaining anything to you. In this era, it's normal for young lovers to break up and get back together. Where can there be any real heartless man? In the end, it's just someone who can't stand him and accuses him. Feizi doesn't care, He accepted everything with a smile, which is his magnanimity. Of course, if you say it's my fault, I don't care either."

Xia Ning looked at Liu Li, and then smiled: "Actually, after all these years, I have never forgotten Feizi. Now that he is back, he seems to have some old feelings for me, so I am also thinking about whether to get back together with him. Burn it once."

Liu Li's eyes widened.

Seeing her like that, Xia Ning smiled even more happily.

She changed the subject: "His heart is not here."

Liu Li was stunned, but Xia Ning turned to look into the distance: "My heart is not here either. The new era has arrived. We have to brave the wind and waves in this new era, and we have no time to think about the love between children. Things. Unlike you, you can see..."

"Humph." Liu Li turned around.

Xia Ning said leisurely: "But have you ever thought about it, maybe what Feizi needs is not a tolerant woman, but a girl who can accompany him to the end."

Liu Li was stunned.

She had never thought about this before.

It wasn't until Xia Ning brought it up that she realized what she had overlooked.

Yes, she just wants to be an ordinary woman. She doesn't care about her future. She is content to be a Druid.

But is Yuan Chenfei that kind of person

Clearly he isn't.

While she was content to stay where she was, Yuan Chenfei was trying hard to move forward.

so…

Is this why he rejected himself

Thinking of this, Liu Li gradually became so immersed in thought that she couldn't even hear what Xia Ning said.

This was the first real in-depth conversation between the two women. From the initial hostility to the later enlightenment, Xia Ning easily turned the situation around.

As she said, Liu Li is a good girl, but she is not on the same level as Yuan Chenfei.

This is not only a matter of starting point, but also a matter of different destinations destined to different goals.

Liu Li originally had a competitive hostility towards Xia Ning, but after Xia Ning reflected on it in a few words, she could only say that Liu Li was destined to be Xia Ning's opponent due to different levels.

However, no matter how high Xia Ning's level is and how good she is as a goddess, Yuan Chenfei doesn't seem to take it to heart.

He once loved Xia Ning deeply.

But Xia Ning's choice broke his heart.

Although it has always been said that what women value is not power and status, but family and men.

But the fact is that there are many new women in the new era who value power and status.

Xia Ning is such a woman.

She has the appearance of a goddess, but she never intends to rely on her looks to make a living.

She has her own ambitions.

So she will finally choose to obey her father and give up Yuan Chenfei.

As for being together with Yuan Chenfei now, the more reason is because Yuan Chenfei is strong enough and can bring her all kinds of valuable information.

Of course, it is impossible to say that there is no emotion.

In the battle with Black Blade, both Xia Ning and Yuan Chenfei showed enough concern.

But feelings are feelings, and pursuit is pursuit.

Movies can be black and white, but in reality emotions are often mixed with rationality.

This is the case for Xia Ning and Yuan Chenfei.

They appreciate each other, like each other, and need each other, but after all, it is not the kind of love that must be for each other.

this is the truth.

Now, none of them want to pursue love. The game of the gods has just begun. There are infinite possibilities in the future, and no one wants to trap themselves.

Although love is beautiful, it is also a shackle. It can become the weakness of a strong man and the shackles of flying.

Realizing this, Liu Li gradually understood.

She said: "How much blood do you think the Fengwei Dao can be sold for?"

Hearing this, Xia Ning smiled.

—————————

It's getting light.

The first ray of dawn appeared on the horizon. With the faint light, you could see that the earth was still scorched.

It is not a bright red blood-stained land, but a blackened and yellow plague land.

There was a faint yellow smoke that was invisible to the naked eye and lingered on the ground.

This is the side effect of using the natural disaster cloud. Although it has disappeared, it is not complete. The land infected by it has forever become a place of plague.

From today on, this land will be barren of grass. Not only that, if ordinary people enter this land, they will also be easily infected with diseases.

Necromancers will prefer this place, because here they will get a certain degree of bonus, including energy and life recovery speed, reaction time, and even the efficiency of refining undead will be improved.

"Is this the price of using the Tower of Black Death props? Creating a plague land that mortals cannot enter?" Li Siwen asked Yuan Chenfei.

"Yes." Yuan Chenfei nodded lightly: "Not only that, the Plague Land also has a certain degree of contagion and will expand every year, just like the Zerg carpet and desertified land, which will expand every year... unless you use the Fountain of Youth. Only similar treasures can cleanse pollution. And this is already the least expensive treasure."

Li Siwen looked pale: "I took the crystal and token."

"I know." Yuan Chenfei was not surprised.

In the Tower of Black Death, Yuan Chenfei left, leaving only Li Siwen.

He didn't go to see if Li Siwen had taken those two things, but he still knew.

Because of Li Siwen's subsequent performance.

He felt guilty, and he did not dare to look directly at Yuan Chenfei.

Until this moment, I took the initiative to admit it.

"Why didn't you stop me?" Li Siwen asked.

"I have used the natural disaster clouds myself, so who am I to stop you?" Yuan Chenfei said leisurely: "I am not a moral pacesetter. Don't ask others for things you can't do yourself. In fact, even if you can do it yourself, in the end It’s best not to ask others arbitrarily, because you can’t really think about the problem from the other person’s perspective.”

Li Siwen lowered his head: "I want to become stronger!"

"All men want to become stronger." Yuan Chenfei said.

He looked at Li Siwen and said, "Do you know how to use those two things?"

Li Siwen nodded: "The token is the Nether Token, which can transform the Nether Guard. The crystal is the soul-binding crystal, which can imprison a person's soul, torture it continuously, and obtain information. But I don't know what their side effects are."

Yuan Chenfei said: "The Nether Order can only transform living people. If it is used by a necromancer, each transformed Nether Guard will have a corrosive effect similar to natural disaster clouds. If it is used by a non-necromancer, the Nether Guard will not have any This characteristic, but the user will gradually transform into the undead, becoming half human and half undead. You are a thief, and you may eventually evolve into a derivative profession, the undead thief."

Li Siwen's face turned pale: "What about the soul-binding crystal?"

Yuan Chenfei replied: "That thing is the most terrifying. It is used to imprison people's souls. No matter how strong the will is, people will speak the truth when trapped in this crystal. But as the number of uses increases, the use will gradually become distorted. The human nature of the user, and eventually becomes more and more evil. The natural disaster cloud makes a land unsuitable for mortals to survive, the Nether Order will kill a large number of innocent people, and the soul-binding crystal directly turns the user into a devil... Well, change If you use the Nether Order after you become a devil, there will probably be no psychological burden."

Li Siwen took a breath of air. He thought for a moment and said, "I promise, I won't use them."

"If you don't want to use it, then you shouldn't take it in the first place." Yuan Chenfei replied.
