Chapter 609: Wine Tasting

"Then are you ready? This will be very interesting."

The saint said with a smile. With a bang, the stopper of the first bottle of the ten blood brews popped open automatically:

"The first bottle, Blood of Evil Souls. I spent a hundred years collecting the souls and blood of 999 heinous villains to brew this bottle of blood brew."

The god's collection was completely different from the blood brought by the others last time. When the stopper was opened, Xia De actually heard the wailing and cursing sounds coming from the bottle.

"Blood brew is not just blood, but also souls..."

"Of course, if it were just the blood and souls of sinners, it would be too boring. So, in the last year, I found a girl with the purest soul, and after becoming a mortal and falling in love with her, I killed her on the night of the wedding and put her blood and soul into the blood brew."

Xia De and the armored old man's expressions changed slightly. The other party was indeed an evil god.

"The final soul is a quite good catalyst, a very wonderful catalyst, giving this bottle of blood brew an extraordinary taste. Then, is anyone willing to drink with me?"

He looked at the mortals at the table.

Although the ingredients of this wine didn't sound poisonous, "soul" in mysticism is infectious. Drinking blood brew brewed from so many painful souls, unless one's own soul is strong enough, one will definitely be contaminated.

This is basic knowledge about souls in mysticism. Xia De and the witch both know it, so both shook their heads at the first time. Although Xia De's soul stores a drop of divinity, he is not sure if he can withstand the power of blood wine brewed by the god himself.

Seeing Xia De and the witch refuse at the same time, the old man and the twin girls also wisely shook their heads.

"What a pity, drinking this bottle of wine as a mortal can directly increase the power of one's own soul."

The saint said regretfully, the wine bottle automatically poured a shallow bottom of liquid into his wine glass, the saint shook it slightly, and drank it in one gulp:

"Unexpected guest, don't you pursue power?"

"I just hope to pass through other ways."

Xia De answered very cautiously, the saint showed a strange smile on his face, and his sharp teeth were slightly exposed:

"That's fine, then the second bottle.

This is very interesting, I call it 'Wine of Blasphemy.' What is contained inside is the blood and soul of the betrayers among the blood-sucking species who blasphemed me. Because the blasphemers will never disappear, the ingredients in this bottle of wine are becoming richer and richer. By now, I can't even use a simple number to tell you how many blasphemous souls are inside. Then, is anyone willing to drink with me?"

This bottle of wine sounded even more terrifying than the one just now. Xia De and the witch still shook their heads at the first time, and then the old man and the twin girls also refused.

"You are really boring. If you chose to drink the wine just now, you could have directly transformed any one of you into a high-level blood-sucking species. This is power that is within reach, and none of you noticed this point."

Power always has a price, especially free power. His kind of temptation has no use for Xia De, the witch, and the armored old man, but the twin girls seem to be tempted.

But as the elder sister in the white dress, she still rationally continued to shake her head and still chose to refuse this bottle of wine.

"The third bottle, Wine of Elements. Earth, fire, water, air, and ether. In the distant past, I captured five powerful elemental life forms and took their blood to brew this bottle of wine. Is anyone willing to try it?"

He looked directly at the witch at the table, who hesitated for a moment:

"God, I am willing to drink this glass of wine with you."

She became the first person at this cocktail party to choose to drink with the god.

"Then is there anyone else who wants to try?"

He looked at Xia De again. Xia De asked in his heart:

"If I drink this bottle of blood brew, what will happen?"

【Only when you touch it can you get the answer.】

He hesitated for a moment and nodded:

"I also want to try."

This kind of blood brew that obviously doesn't belong to what ordinary people can accept, the armored old man naturally refused directly. Although the twin girls have the potential to become witches, they are not witches yet. After hesitating for a while, they also chose to refuse.

So this time, the wine bottle poured half a glass of liquid for each of the three wine glasses. The blood brew of elemental life was also bright red, but there was a rainbow-like luster in that red.

The string of sharp teeth hanging down from the crystal lamp swayed above the long table. In this hall that was gradually turning blood-red, the god held a goblet and looked at Xia De and the witch while tasting the wine. The witch seemed to be prepared, and without waiting for Xia De to pick up the glass, she drank the wine in front of her in one gulp.

The next second, her body expanded at a speed visible to the naked eye, as if it were about to explode. But as the witch chanted words in her mouth, the energy that had nowhere to vent was guided to her long hair.

Excessive spirit, or ether, mana, caused her hair to grow rapidly, until that long hair like a waterfall piled up into a small mountain behind her before stopping.

"Witch's hair growth spell."

She said to Xia De.

Xia De nodded, picked up the glass and took a small sip, tilting his head as if listening to some sound. Subsequently, in the surprised eyes of the other four, a huge brass wheel ring appeared behind Xia De in the steam whistle and bell ringing. Four-color spiritual light penetrated the steam fog and shone in all directions.

Xia De also drank the liquid in the wine glass in one gulp. As the cold liquid with a fishy and alcoholic taste slid into his throat, a huge amount of spirit that almost made him want to scream in pain surged into his body and soul.

The danger after drinking this glass of wine actually lies in how not to be blown up by the huge spirit or ether inside. Ordinary curses and strange arts, or the power of witches, are not enough to consume these spirits quickly, and the growth spell the witch just used should happen to be that kind of special curse.

Fortunately, Xia De also mastered the power that can consume a huge amount of spirit at one time. At the moment he put down the wine glass with a ding, the girl in the white dress sitting at the table had already stretched out her right hand to catch the snowflakes falling from the sky:

"Is it snowing?"

The maze unfolded, pulling the end of the long table where everyone was sitting into that snowy street. But I don't know if it was because of the existence of the saint, or because of the influence of this strange 【Night Manor】, they were still sitting at the long table, and the long table ran through the maze and the manor, as if the two spaces were forcibly spliced together.

But being in the maze still greatly weakened the influence brought by the saint. At least the remaining four people could look around at this time.

The armored old man looked up at the starry sky above his head with a look of nostalgia; the twin girls looked at the falling snow in front of them in surprise, not knowing what they remembered; only the witch looked at Xia De and hesitated for a moment:

"Maze?"

"Yes."

It seems that this special ability of "maze" also exists in the witch's power system.

"I remember the last time I was on this street, sitting at the table, it was when I was playing cards with that captain... I actually used the maze twice in half an hour."

Xia De thought in his heart. While maintaining the strange art with the life ring, his right hand twisted in the air, as if pulling out a burning match from the air:

"The first wish, I..."

He hesitated for a moment and changed his words:

"Our anti-toxin ability is improved."

He blew out the matchstick in front of him violently, and the faint fire light rushed toward everyone. The witch seemed more surprised, the gray-haired old man touched his body in surprise, and the girls looked at Xia De at this moment, not expecting him to do this.

This is of course not a permanent enhancement, but a state that will be consumed. Xia De originally thought about using the four wishes of 【The Little Match Girl】 to increase his anti-toxicity, but he still produced compassion in the end. After all, when facing a god, even if it is the power of a maze, the difference between one-fourth and one-fourth is not big.

"The second wish."

Then he pulled out the second burning match:

"Our mental resistance is enhanced."

Then the third match:

"We can linger longer in a near-death state."

The last fourth match, Xia De consumed all the spirit brought by that bottle of blood wine, as well as all the spirit recovered after entering the Night Manor, here:

"Our luck becomes very good."

The starry sky above his head dissipated, and the snowy street scattered around like a faded oil painting. Only those few snowflakes fell from above, falling into the palms of the twin girls, and then melted.

"You refused the blood of sinners I provided, and showed me your compassion. Does this mean you are trying to tell me that you are kind?"

The god asked.

"Sorry, I don't think I have this meaning."

The god smiled:

"That's fine, next, is the fourth kind of blood. You see, this is really interesting, isn't it?"
