GDK 447: Implanting Demonic Blood

What a shame for sacred knight Blount. He had hoped that his three years of painstaking cultivation would allow him to exact his revenge on Han Shuo and finally clear that grudge. That he would, nonetheless, wind up even more pathetic than the last time was anyone’s guess.

If not for the golden armour and divine energy protecting his body, sacred knight Blount would perhaps not have had to suffer so much pain. After all, any ordinary man who had been trampled by an earth elite zombie would indeed have died instantly, with considerably less pain.

Blount, however, was protected by the armour on his body, in addition to his fighting aura and sacred energy. Therefore, he did not immediately die when the earth elite zombie stomped on him repeatedly, but instead, let out harrowing squeals as he died. With the pain of both his physical body and spirit dejected and shrouding him at the same time, Blount hadn’t even the strength to kill himself.

It was at this moment that the wrinkly old woman rushed towards him in excitement. With fear in Blount’s eyes, Elizabeth pounced on him like a malevolent spirit, her sharp fingers directly piercing into Blount’s neck, exposed and unarmoured.

All the divine energy, which Blount had received in exchange for his devout conviction, gushed from his body like water from a collapsed dam into that of the sinister Elizabeth. Elizabeth, who had earlier been beaten to the bone by Han Shuo, was restored of all energy.

Streaks of green smoke once again slithered in and out of Elizabeth’s seven apertures like slender green snakes. Her green eyes glittered with wicked vigor, and a vicious look adorned her face, like a mentally deranged prison inmate. Her internal organs, which were unlike those of a regular person, ran like a brand new machine at maximum speed, absorbing and breaking down the divine energy from sacred knight Blount’s body, and converting it into a strange energy that she could readily utilize.

While Elizabeth, deranged and thrilled, took in the divine energy, Han Shuo appeared behind Elizabeth without warning. With one thought, his consciousness targeted on Elizabeth’s body, taking a clear glimpse into its every minute movement.

Elizabeth’s body composition was as different as could be compared to that of a regular person. If not for her human appearance, with an aura and body structure like that, Han Shuo would have never considered her human. In addition to the differences in skeletal structure and meridians, there were five fist-sized cyclones in her body. As Elizabeth digested the divine energy from Blount’s body, these five cyclones revolved rapidly. They must play a crucial role in the process.

Thanks to the existence of these five cyclones, Elizabeth could absorb the divine energy in sacred knight Blount’s body. But as for Blount’s painstakingly cultivated fighting aura, the five cyclones had no effect whatsoever. It seemed that the only thing they did was act on the divine power in Blount, which he had apparently obtained through piety to the God of Light.

Han Shuo was very curious in his heart as he had never heard of a body of divine favor that could digest sacred power. It was no wonder the Church of Light wanted her killed. Han Shuo vaguely believed that this gifted body of hers was rather different from any ordinary body of divine favor. Perhaps there were some secrets hidden within Elizabeth the even she herself did not understand.

And soon, the divine energy was completely drained from the body of sacred knight Blount. With such might, even after having lost all his sacred energy, Blount would simply not die. His face was a grim, gravestone shade of grey as he stared blankly, awaiting death.

Elizabeth laughed in maniacal satisfaction. Pulling away her two hands from Blount’s neck and dripping with blood, she gestured towards Han Shuo and thanked him, “Thank you, thank you!”

“You’re welcome!” Han Shuo smiled grotesquely. He approached Elizabeth from the back, and extended his right hand. His middle finger stabbed into the back of her head. At the tip his finger, a drop of dark red blood essence cracked through his skin and shot into the blood vessels in the back of her head. Elizabeth shrieked as the blood essence of Han Shuo’s demonic infant made its way into her brain.

His unoccupied left hand pressed gently on Elizabeth’s back. A gust of wicked force of attraction was released. The strands of energy that had just purified through her five cyclones a moment ago gushed from her back. Not a moment later, Han Shuo had absorbed more than half of it.

“Master, I am your devout servant. Please, spare my life!” Her voice diminished as she begged. She was terrified. The energy she had absorbed from the members of the Church of Light were meant to enhance herself. It had never crossed her mind that that same sinister energy in her body could be absorbed by another. There was no way she could suppress the dread in her heart.

Much to her surprise, all that begging for mercy may have had some effect. After Han Shuo extracted a portion of energy that had been partially converted by the five cyclones, he began to shriek, and let go and ceased to touch her.

After removing his fingertip from the back of Elizabeth’s head, Han Shuo patted her forehead, and said with a faint smile, “Human and magical beasts can form a master-slave contract, but between humans, it’s somewhat inconvenient. Hahaha, you must have felt a little something extra in your brain, haven’t you?”
