Chapter 368 (1/2)
Abel didn't expect that before he saw the countess, he had already got two bottles of ”power potions”. The ”power potions” are a shortcut to improve the fighting power of summoned items and contractual beasts.
In order to improve the combat effectiveness of the dark gold level boss, hell has developed many ways to strengthen its strength, each of which can strengthen one aspect of the ability of the creature, and with the level of the creature itself, this kind of strengthening will also increase.
But the entrance to the fifth floor is right in front of him. Abel doesn't plan to use these two bottles of ”power potions”. After so many days, he finally wants to see the countess. He doesn't want to wait any longer.
It's strange that when Abel walked into the fifth floor, he didn't find another hell creature. It seems that this is an empty dungeon, but the bloody air here is very heavy. The air is full of the smell of blood and heat.
With his progress, a huge iron pot appeared in front of him. The pot was full of red liquid. He just sniffed it and knew that it was full of human blood. However, human beings had disappeared in this continent. Where did the blood come from? At least he had never seen human beings since he came to the dark world.
If Abel was an orc sacrifice, or an alchemist who had a lot of research on blood, he would know that the blood was all virgin blood.
Turning around a few empty rooms, there was the innermost room in front of him. Abel felt the heat. Unlike other rooms, the innermost room was full of red light.
Abel made the leader of the ghost knight with the most fire resistance standing at the front, and several other ghost guard Knights guarded him around. He stepped into the room.
”How many years have there been no visitors!” A faint sigh came from a woman. In the fire, a lady in a gorgeous noble robe stood in the center of the room, with seven attendants in maid's clothes standing on both sides respectfully.
Abel didn't expect that the countess in front of him would say such words. He always thought that all the hell creatures were the same. They had been corrupted by hell and had no way to have their original thoughts. Now it seems that it's a little different from the previous imagination. But before that, he still wanted to confirm whether the other countess was the countess. At present, the situation is a little weird Now.
”You are the countess who guards here?” Abel looked at each other's noble robes and naturally asked for a standard chivalry.
”Countess, what a long-standing title. I've been forgetting it for many years. No one has called me that since I was trapped here!” Murmured the countess, as if remembering a long time ago.
When Abel heard that she admitted that she was the countess, he had made preparations for the battle. A dark gold staff appeared in his hand. It was the ash staff of the bane. It had + 50% fire resistance in its attribute, and it was the only equipment in his hand that could strengthen fire resistance.
”Brave adventurer, can you listen to my story and fight again? I can feel that the world has lost the support of hell. In the past, I could die many times and still be resurrected. But I know that now if I fall down, I will go to a permanent sleep. So I ask you to listen to my story first. That's how I died in battle. At least there are people in this world who can know my story! ” The countess, with her hands empty, made a gesture to Abel, which was unprepared for battle, and then said in a soft voice of supplication.
”Please say it!” Abel did not put away the ashes of the curse, but suppressed all the summoned things to guard him.
”Adventurer, you just gave me a knight's gift, which reminds me of my husband many years ago. He is also a knight!” There was a happy color on countess's face. Although the happy color appeared on her face for a short time, Abel saw it clearly.
”The knight's fate is to die in the battlefield, so is he, and the only thing I can remember him is his favorite, my face! So in order to keep my face unchanged, I found countless scholars, alchemists, and finally the alchemists in the city Lord's mansion told me that the blood of virgins can keep my face forever! ”
When Abel heard the countess's words, he couldn't help thinking of the blood filled in the huge iron pot in the largest hall on the fifth floor.
