Lottie fed Charlotte her lunch and left.

As a priest at a church hospital, she was always busy.

Charlotte was the only one left in the ward.

But her keen perception told her that there was a demon hunting knight standing at the door outside the ward.

That powerful aura was much greater than the pressure her grandmother brought to her last night.

It was obvious that although the demon-hunting knights saved Charlotte, the only survivor, from the cross last night, they did not let go of their suspicions about Charlotte.

The witcher knight outside the door is a protector and a watcher.

Even after successfully escaping from her "grandmother's" blood sacrifice, the girl's existential crisis has not completely dissipated.

However, after listening to Priest Lottie's explanation just now, Charlotte fell into deep thought:

"Divinity... ritual?"

Divine rituals.

This is the second time Charlotte comes into contact with this word.

The first time was during the blood sacrifice.

She clearly remembered that the ancient words that appeared in her field of vision called the blood sacrifice of the "old witch" a magical ritual.

Not only that, she also successfully intercepted, modified and reversed the sacrificial ceremony.

Charlotte was able to survive in the end because of her sudden magical ability.

This also made her think a lot...

The blood sacrifice is a magical ritual, and the physical examination in the Demon Hunting Hall is also a magical ritual.

So... is it possible that she will "intercept" the next physical examination like she did in the basement last night

This thought made Charlotte's heart beat wildly.

She seemed to see a glimmer of hope!

That magical ability may be her golden finger after time travel.

However, she still doesn't know what the golden finger is and how to open it.

But she still remembered the name mentioned in the strange writing.

The object that detected the blood sacrifice and successfully intercepted it...

Or to be more precise, the blood-red book that appeared next to her when she entered that wonderful state of looking down at the earth last night.

A kind of seasonal movement originating from the soul comes to mind...

Charlotte almost blurted out:

"The... holy book of blood."

The pronunciation is strange and cadenced.

That was not the language of another world that Charlotte inherited in her memory after traveling through time.

It was even more difficult to pronounce and more vicissitudes of life, but it was read out by her herself as if it were instinctive.

And as Charlotte thought silently, her vision once again turned into scarlet.

In the dark, an ancient book slowly emerged in her mind...

The black-red cover is edged with gold, and is painted with a complex and mysterious pattern of thorns and roses. On it is a name that Charlotte can understand the meaning of in ancient mysterious words -

"Bible of Blood"

Blood Sacred Scripture!

Charlotte cheered up.

The book that appeared in her mind was exactly the one that appeared next to her when she entered that strange state last night!

The sacred book glowed brightly, and its thick cover opened on its own.

Different from its appearance, this "Blood Sacred Book" seems to have been torn and divided, and most of its contents have been lost.

Behind the cover, there were only two scattered blood-red pages, which made Charlotte feel extremely familiar...

Wait, isn't this broken page the bloody page in the old witch's hand when she offered her sacrifice? !

Charlotte's heart skipped a beat.

The Countess of Castel is dead, and the bloody pages in her hand may have been taken away by the demon-hunting knights.

Even though Charlotte was curious and surprised, there was currently no way to investigate.

She quickly focused her attention on the two remaining pages of the Blood Sacred Book.

One should be the title page and the other should be the content page.

The title page was still intact. It was illustrated with a print of a majestic castle that seemed to be alive, which made Charlotte feel familiar. The two lines of beautiful and gorgeous golden handwriting below it were very eye-catching:

"I stand in the darkness, looking up to your light.

—Lilith”

Charlotte couldn't help but recited silently in her heart.

The crimson light bloomed instantly, and she felt as if she had established some mysterious connection with the book.

Under the light, the title page turned by itself.

The golden light kept flashing, and new lines of handwriting slowly appeared on the back of the title page—

I dream of ancient ages and distant memories,

Vampire... I am really a Vampire!

Looking at the information in front of her, Charlotte was both happy and worried.

What is gratifying is that in this different world with extraordinary power, I have really stepped into the extraordinary.

Worryingly, this identity is 100% shady...

Charlotte couldn't understand many of the contents that surfaced.

I can only roughly judge that this is somewhat similar to the personal panel of the system.

"Blood Summoning? True Ancestor Liberation? Is this the ability of the Blood Scripture? One is cooling down, and the other is still sealed?"

"Shedite, the Dark Clan, is this the clan division of the Blood Clan? But what the hell is half-elf blood?"

"Apprentice level... I took Countess Castel's power last night. What I obtained should be this level of extraordinary power, but I feel a little weaker than her."

"The resonance of the five bloodlines should be the different development directions of the blood clan."

Charlotte quickly browsed the information and analyzed the current status.

She quickly focused on the only power she had:

"Basic blood embracing technique."

As he focused his attention, information about the blood embrace technique also emerged in Charlotte's consciousness.

Blood embrace technique.

The basic abilities inherent to the blood clan and the basic spells of the blood spirit system.

The caster can create blood descendants through initial embrace, transforming the target into a blood servant or a lower-level vampire.

"Unfortunately, this information and ability may be useful in the future, but it will not help solve my current crisis."

"What I need now is not these, but the magical ability to intercept the magical ritual last night!"

Charlotte shook her head slowly, looking away from the title page and looking at the only remaining content page.

The content page is blank, with nothing written on it.

However, when Charlotte focused her attention, lines of golden writing quickly appeared on it -

I will be unstoppable,

I will be strong and domineering,

I will look down upon all sentient beings!

Chapter of God ability unlocked—

Modifications must follow the inherent mechanism of the technique and cannot change the nature and effect of the technique.

"This is it!"

Seeing this description, Charlotte's eyes suddenly lit up.

At this moment, a soft knock on the door suddenly sounded, interrupting the girl's exploration.

Accompanying the knock on the door was the gentle voice of Priest Lottie:

"Miss Charlotte, Captain Kara is back, is it convenient for us to come in?"
