Chapter 213
Until walking out of the Queen's side hall, Nie Yingying still maintained an excited and confused appearance.
Outside the door, Aoruilian, who was also full of excitement, was sitting uneasily, familiarizing himself with his newly obtained reward.
Aoruilian even turned his Sun Spear, which could transform into various weapons at will, into a dagger, and was doing pressure puncture tests on his palm.
"Not only strength, but my physique has also increased by about a third!" Seeing Nie Yingying come out of the Queen's side hall, Aoruilian greeted her with a smile: "Miss Nie seems to have also obtained a good extra reward!"
After several joint battles, except for Xie Yaoyao, the relationship between the two remaining people in the squad was obviously more intimate than at the beginning, and of course, this also had a very direct relationship with the fact that Nie Yingying's combat effectiveness had improved to a level that Aoruilian could look up to.
【Blood Clan】! Red bloodline entry! The bloodline of the Blood Clan is both an eternal gift and an endless curse—soaring in the dark night, but trembling before the dawn!
Facing her excited comrade, Nie Yingying chose not to hide the entry on her head.
"You... you obtained a bloodline entry?!" Aoruilian's excitement calmed down visibly; he had obtained a gift of power outside of entries and thought it was already a great mission reward, but he didn't expect his teammate to directly obtain a bloodline entry.
That was a bloodline entry!
A stepping stone for high-tier powerhouses!
"Huh! If it's the Blood Clan... why is your palm..."
Everyone knew that the strongest thing about the Blood Clan should be their physical recovery ability; legendary vampires almost wouldn't die as long as their hearts weren't damaged.
Not to mention a mere palm.
But Nie Yingying's left arm, below the elbow, was still empty.
"I just obtained this entry and can't yet actively recover physical structural injuries, but I can sense that such injuries are no longer a big problem for me."
"What a powerful bloodline! Not only recovery power, but strength should have also increased quite a bit, right!"
Aoruilian was envious, walking up as if to see clearly what was different about Nie Yingying from before.
Who knew Nie Yingying would instinctively take a step back.
"No need to envy, you are not suitable for this bloodline entry!"
Aoruilian froze on the spot, then understood what Nie Yingying meant.
Although he had always craved powerful bloodline entries, the fact that the 【Blood Clan】 was weak against sunlight undoubtedly conflicted absolutely with his 【Sun Knight】 profession entry.
Thinking this way, Aoruilian's mood improved again.
"You're right, Miss Nie! What's suitable is the best! Thank you for your reminder!"
Perhaps, the extra power boost from entries was the mission reward most suitable for me.
Aoruilian finally convinced the last bit of envy in his heart.
……
Dismissing the travelers, the Queen took out the 'Sleeping Apple' that emitted a fruity fragrance again; although it indeed looked like an ordinary apple on the outside, as an excellent 【Cursed Witch】, Selina could naturally feel the powerful curse power contained within it.
She was very sure that even for herself, as long as she took a light bite, she would also fall into eternal slumber.
"Magic Mirror, Magic Mirror, tell me, who is the most beautiful woman in this world!"
"Respected Queen, your beauty is like the brightest star in the night sky, but Snow White's face is now as dazzling as the rising sun."
The Queen, who had just been noble and elegant, became instantly furious after hearing the Magic Mirror's words.
Her exquisite face twisted into a ball, the elegance in her eyes was replaced by hideousness, and even the fangs in her mouth were uncontrollably revealed, sharp and pale, as if she would tear everything in front of her in the next second.
And the Magic Mirror on the side stood quietly on the spot, the complex patterns around the mirror frame flickering secretly a few times.
"Where is she? I want to know her specific location!"
This time the Magic Mirror did not answer, the image on the mirror surface flowing for a while.
In a rugged camp, the Princess of the Kingdom was doing the work of a cook and maid. Ash and sweat stained her cheeks, but could not hide her peerless beauty, instead adding a bit of reality and vividness to her face, beautiful enough to make one's heart tremble.
Then the camera pulled up, and the whole camp and the mountains and terrain where it was located appeared in the mirror.
……
In the underground cave deep in the palace dungeon.
Xie Yaoyao sat cross-legged, and the moment his eyelids lifted, the entire cave seemed to come alive.
The human-faced flowers turned toward him, flattering babble between the opening and closing of petals; the bone trunks creaked, bone-claw-like branches crawling; vines twisted crazily, twitching sacrificial totems on the rock wall.
Mist surged like a sea of blood, scarlet and ghostly green halos flowing. Half-plant, half-flesh monsters stiffened, rotting eyeballs turned toward him, whimpers of submission squeezed from their throats. The mountain-like monster deep in the cave raised its head, muscle fibers trembling, letting out a roar that shook the earth's veins—
That was awe for the Creator, trembling for the source of life.
Xie Yaoyao just raised his hand slightly, and every inch of space in the cave pulsed accordingly. Vines, bones, flesh, poison mist... all twisted existences bowed down at his fingertips!
Flesh, plants, corruption, all of this was the embodiment of authority!
A rapidly spinning Little Red Umbrella drilled into Xie Yaoyao's arms like an arrow, the big eyes on the umbrella revealing intense joy.
"Haha, Xiao Annie! Thank you for always accompanying me! Protecting me!"
His shoulders sank slightly, and the scene of Lilisi driving away the travelers Luka, Salvatore, and Vito appeared in Xie Yaoyao's mind.
"So many things actually happened during the time I was sleeping? Thank you for telling me, Helai'er!"
Stepping down from the giant monster's body, Xie Yaoyao picked up the gift Lilisi intended to give to Xiao Annie—【Soul Walker】!
"This puts me in a difficult position!"
Although Xiao Annie was taken care of by Xie Yaoyao at the request of the toy bear Aaron, the little one was not a traveler, nor was she Xie Yaoyao's 'Soul Partner' like Lilisi and Helai'er, so she could not be directly equipped with entries by Xie Yaoyao like them.
Waves of intimate emotions made Xie Yaoyao 【Empathize】, and looking at the Little Red Umbrella spinning around him anxiously, Xie Yaoyao hurriedly comforted her.
"Don't be anxious, don't be anxious! Xiao Annie, do you really want to become my 'Soul Partner'? Like Lilisi and the others?"
The Little Red Umbrella spun even more urgently, and a light drizzle began to fall in the cave.
"Alright! Alright! Please take care of me for the rest of my life! My Anchor!"
