As the medicine was swallowed, the old man clenched his right hand, knocked on the table, closed his eyes, and showed an expression that was even more terrifying than the blood of the poisonous insect he had just drunk. But at least his body's expansion trend stopped, and although blood was still oozing out of his body, his expanded body was also shrinking inwards.
Obviously, he survived this time. This means that Shade and the old man have survived the second round of the God's Wine Party hosted by the God of Vampires, and the girls need to drink twice more, and the witch needs to drink once more.
"Thanks."
The old man, who had returned to normal, thanked the girls tiredly. This time he did not take out the ring as a thank you, but obviously he would not forget the people who had helped him.
"The ninth kind of blood brew is ether wine. The origin of this bottle of blood brew is very interesting. Its raw materials are some magical creatures from another kind of god that I once traded with. I threw the bottle of wine into a deep-sea vortex, where it was concentrated for tens of thousands of years under the pressure of the deep sea. Then I added some blood from deep-sea monsters as a seasoning. In my opinion, this bottle of wine is as precious as mouthwash. After all, in addition to its special taste, it can only provide mortals with unimaginable huge spiritual power."
"I want to give it a try."
The witch said immediately.
"So do we."
The girls raised their hands as well.
The tasting of the ninth blood brew went smoothly. Although Xia De was tempted, he did not suggest that he try it again. The witch digested the huge spirit, but the price was that she looked ten years older.
And the twin girls did not drink the blood brew for nothing this time. After they drank the wine together, Xia De actually saw that their hearts were connected by a black chain phantom.
The huge spirit in the blood wine directly materialized the bond between the twins in the family inheritance contract. As the spirit was digested, the chain connected to the heart began to tremble rapidly.
The older sister, the girl in the white dress, almost bit her lips, but she didn't make a sound, while the girl in the black dress cried out in pain. If it weren't for the witch sitting next to them who kindly rescued them and guided them to dissipate the deadly spirits accumulated in their bodies, it would be difficult for the girls to remain normal.
But after enduring the abundant spirits in the etheric wine, and learning how to use powers that do not belong to them under the witch's guidance, they are getting closer and closer to officially awakening as witches.
It was already the 27th minute since Shade entered Night Manor, and nine of the ten bottles of wine in front of the Saint had been opened. It seemed that this blood-sucking God had calculated the time so that Shade could leave at just the right time.
"The last bottle of blood brew, the wine of the soul. I went to the end of the soul and took a bowl of clean water."
He nodded to Shade:
"Yes, it's the place you just left. I mixed the blood of the soul-sucking ghosts that I had already exterminated into it, and stored the bottle and the wine in the soul of a mortal baby I chose. I let the wine go through his life with him and witness everything the soul goes through. This cycle repeated ninety-nine times, and only then was this bottle of wine created."
This god doesn't mind the trouble at all to get the good wine.
The cork popped open, and everyone at the table, including Xia De, couldn't help but look at the mouth of the bottle. They knew the function of this bottle of wine without the gods' introduction.
Make the soul stronger.
No mortal soul could resist such a temptation. Even though Shad's soul could infect divinity, he was still attracted by this opportunity.
"Only an absolutely powerful soul can drink it. A river can contain the impact of a stream, but an ant hole can never contain it."
The god said, looking at the twin girls:
"The medicine in your medicine box has no effect on the damage to the soul. So, will you drink this last glass of wine with me?"
The girls had no choice but to agree, as this was the last bottle of blood brew. They looked at each other in bewilderment, because it was obvious that even with the bond of the soul and the power of family inheritance, they were not "soul-strong" anyway.
"Please wait a moment."
This time it was Shade who spoke. He glanced at the girls:
"You said that I could use the third bottle of wine I brought to offset one chance of drinking blood-brew. Now that I have shared three glasses of wine with you, can I give this chance to these two girls?"
Although this means that Shade will have to find another kind of blood next time, for him it is just a matter of time and gold pounds.
"Of course, but... there are two of them and you can only offset one drink."
The saint said calmly.
"I'm the elder sister, I'll drink!"
The girl in the white dress said immediately, reaching out to take the cup, but was stopped by the girl in the black dress who had always looked very timid:
"No, you've done enough, Grace."
She stared at her sister, showing a strength she had never shown before:
"You have always been the one protecting me, since we were young. We promised to stay together forever. Are you the only one who can sacrifice for me?"
"But I'm the older sister..."
"Girls, please be quiet."
Shad stopped this conversation in time, which seemed like a court novel. Dorothy might be interested in this story, but he didn't have much time to listen to the conversation between the two sisters:
"I'll drink for them."
He looked up again at the god at the table.
Without even giving others a chance to react, the bottle of soul wine was poured into the glasses at both ends of the long table.
Xia De took a deep breath, raised his glass and looked at the god:
“I have to admit, this is indeed a very good cocktail party.”
He spoke words of praise that did not require any gold pound.
"Thank you for the compliment. You have really good taste."
The gods also responded, and they raised their glasses together, and lightly touched them forward across the long table. The sound of glasses colliding could actually be heard in the air.
Xia De drank the wine in the cup, and indeed felt his soul absorbing strength, but there was no pain. His soul, which was strong enough to store divinity, was not affected by the wine at all.
"gentlemen... ... "
The girls tried to thank him, but Shad didn't have time.
"Then see you next time, God of Bloodsucking. I will bring better gifts next time."
As he spoke, he stood up and prepared to turn around and walk towards the door. Rather than being dragged away by an invisible force, Shade preferred to walk into the white mist door by himself.
The twin girls opened their mouths to thank him, but Shad, who had already reached the door, heard the voice of the god.
I don't know when the double doors turned blood red and opened automatically in front of Xia De, revealing the endless white mist behind. Xia De stood at the door and turned to look at the blood-sucking god, who was holding the empty cup and whispered:
"I noticed you were helping the mortals here? Unexpected guests, are you trying to be a good person?"
This is the Draerion language of the Sixth Age.
“No, I just want to do what I want to do.”
The saint said:
"I appreciate the kindness you've shown me."
Xia De didn't say anything. He would be leaving in a dozen seconds, so these things could be left for next time.
"But I'm curious, if you master the ability to suck blood, will you use it to strengthen yourself?"
Although he did not show much cruelty, the evil god is indeed an evil god.
"God, please forgive my offense, I refuse to become a vampire."
Xia De said, and began to count down in his mind:
"three."
There was simply not enough time for the evil god to forcefully transform him, unless he dared to take action when Xia De was pulled into the White Mist Gate.
"No, no, I'm not interested in converting you. I mean, are you willing to listen to my story?"
The saint clasped his hands together and placed them on the table. The tapestry with scarlet symbols behind him was shaking slightly. No, even the strangely shaped kerosene lamps on the wall and the strings of teeth hanging from the red crystal chandelier began to tremble.
"two."
He began to speak:
"I'm sorry, but I have to leave now."
"So... ... "
The blood-sucking god seemed to be laughing, and he was very proud. And Shade was retreating backwards, and the white mist gradually enveloped him.
"One! Ha, I'm safe!"
"What do you think of the ten stories about winemaking that I just told you?"
The last sentence reached his ears, and at the same time, the white mist in front of him completely blurred Xia De's vision. He could only see the saint's scarlet eyes, staring at him as if they could drag any soul into a pool of blood.
"So this is what He was planning..."
The blood-sucking god looked up at the earth from the sky, and brewed endless blood wine with great power, desire and bloody hands. This is the manic desire of bloodsucking, the most perfect weird collection, and also a chaotic story of blood and wine.
You have listened to the story of the old god "Vampire Duke Laoel", and you have learned one of the blasphemies of the old god "Vampire Duke Laoel".
"Wait, you're not saying that I'm going to become a vampire just because I listened to the story of the gods brewing wine?"
Outsider, you have gained the spell - blood wine brewing.
