Chen Mo's mind raced as he thought about how to deal with the three blood-colored puppets. He didn't notice that after the three blood-colored puppets appeared, a third black eye quietly appeared on Ceci Hailow's forehead and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
The three blood-colored puppets charged at Chen Mo and Ceci Hailow. Without waiting for Chen Mo's instructions, Ceci Hailow's figure flashed and charged at the nearest blood-colored puppet.
Chen Mo couldn't help but be shocked when he saw this. He didn't let Ceci Hailow attack.
In the next moment, Chen Mo's pupils constricted.
Ceci Hailow didn't fight with the blood-colored puppet. After approaching the blood-colored puppet like a phantom, Ceci Hailow transformed her body into a cloak and covered the blood-colored puppet's body, just like how she had snatched Cynthia's ability!
The other two blood-colored puppets turned their gazes. They were originally charging at Chen Mo, but at this moment, they abandoned Chen Mo and ignored him. Instead, they charged at Ceci Hailow.
However, Ceci Hailow wrapped the blood-colored puppet and sank into the blood pool below.
As the two blood-colored puppets approached, a large wave of blood surged from where Ceci Hailow had sunk, sweeping the two blood-colored puppets in.
Chen Mo couldn't help but be dumbfounded when he saw this. He didn't know why such a change had happened.
Where Ceci Hailow and the three blood-colored puppets had sunk, the blood pool kept bubbling. From time to time, there was the sound of rolling. It was unknown what was happening inside.
However, after a few minutes, the blood pool calmed down. Then, a figure floated out of the blood pool and slowly stood up.
It was Ceci Hailow!
Ceci Hailow had appeared, but the three blood-colored puppets were nowhere to be seen!
Ceci Hailow silently walked towards Chen Mo. Chen Mo looked at Ceci Hailow and vaguely felt that she was a little different. Her eyes were clearer than before, and they weren't as empty as before. Her entire person had matured a lot, and there was a faint sense of coldness to her.
There was no one around the blood pool. Even Kaka, the little loli, had run away at some point. She had probably run away because the blood-colored puppets were too overpowered.
Chen Mo didn't kill many people in the blood pool, but his Sin points could be transferred, so he was already blacklisted.
Without other players obstructing him, Chen Mo took large steps to the magic barrier and reached with his hand.
About ten seconds later, Chen's's hand hand reached with his hand's to grab the blood-colored stone.
System Notification: You have obtained the Ancient Blood Stone!
Ancient Blood Stone: Tyrant Nain's keepsake. It has a special effect. Directly use it to permanently increase maximum Health Points by 1,000 points.
"This is good stuff!"
Seeing the Ancient Blood Stone's attributes, Chen Mo's eyes lit up.
There weren't many items in the game that could permanently increase a player's maximum Health Points by 1,000 points.
If it wasn't King Nain's keepsake, Chen Mo would have used it directly.
After Chen Mo took the Ancient Blood Stone, the blood pool under his feet slowly receded, revealing a large patch of dark ground.
After looking around and seeing that there was nothing else to be gained, Chen Mo looked at Ceci Hailow and her Attribute Panel.
As expected, Chen Mo found that Ceci Hailow had gained another skill!
Eye of Fear: Fear the enemy, causing the enemy to have illusions and slow down their movements.
Just like last time, Ceci Hailow obtained another skill.
However, Chen Mo felt that this time, Ceci Hailow didn't just obtain the skill.
Last time, Cynthia's skill was stolen, but she didn't die. This time, the three Blood Puppets seemed to have died when Cecil and Hai Luo stole their skills.
However, the stronger Ceci Hailow became, the better it was for him!
Chen Mo now understood why the old man Belvicente wanted Ceci Hailow so much.
Ceci Hailow's ability was ridiculously strong!
Turning back to the edge of the cliff, Chen Mo found that the blood-colored bridge had disappeared. No wonder no one came here.
He could only go back to where the Blood Pool was. Finally, he found a small teleportation circle in a corner.
Standing on the teleportation circle, Chen Mo was teleported out of the cave with a flash of light.
"I was teleported back to the East Sea Metropolis?"
After teleporting outside, Chen Mo looked at the coordinates and found that he was only half an hour away from the East Sea Metropolis.
Since it was so close, Chen Mo decided to return to the city and store the items in his backpack in the warehouse.
He had obtained quite a lot of good things in the Blood Cave.
After replenishing his supplies, Chen Mo rushed to the Quicksand Rift without stopping.
This time, without the obstruction of the hunters, Chen Mo went straight to the Quicksand Rift Valley.
The Quicksand Rift Valley was a true rift valley. The entire rift valley was thousands of meters long and more than a hundred meters wide. The widest part was two to three hundred meters wide. It was very shocking.
After entering the rift valley, Chen Mo saw groups of players fighting sandworms, sandmen, and other monsters on the yellow and white sand.
This place was much more lively than many places outside the three main cities. Many merchants were selling equipment and items here.
Chen Mo went all the way to the center of the rift valley. There was an entrance to an underground labyrinth here.
This underground labyrinth was very strange. The map inside changed every day. After players entered the labyrinth, they couldn't go back the way they came. They could only find escape scrolls in the labyrinth. If they were unlucky and didn't find any escape scrolls after running out of supplies, they could only wait for death.
The paths in the labyrinth were very complicated. However, one could obtain a type of puppet worm called the Sandcorpse Worm. When players couldn't find the path in the labyrinth, they could use the Sandcorpse Worm to guide the way.
However, this guide wasn't 100% accurate. There was a 50% chance that it would lead to the wrong path. However, some players mentioned that as long as the Sandcorpse Worm ate some gold every time it led the way, it would greatly increase the accuracy of the Sandcorpse Worm's guidance.
If the journey was smooth, the players would eventually reach an ancient door.
No players knew what was behind the door. Although some players had already reached the door, the door had never been opened.
When Chen Mo heard this, he knew that the ancient door was most likely the door to Tyrant Nain's mausoleum.
In order to open the door, one would need to obtain all the tokens in the seven burial tombs.
If Kaka's words were true, including the one he had, six tokens had already been unearthed. There was only one left.
"Selling a Golden Sand Corpse Worm. Come quickly if you have money!"
If one wanted to reach the mausoleum's door, they had to obtain a Golden Sand Corpse Worm. Not long after Chen Mo arrived at the entrance of the labyrinth, someone used a scroll to escape and shouted at the crowd at the entrance.
Golden Sand Corpse Worm?
Chen Mo was slightly stunned.
All he knew was what he saw on the forum. The forum only mentioned the Golden Sand Corpse Worm, but no one mentioned the Golden Sand Corpse Worm.
He walked closer curiously and listened to the crowd. Only then did he know that the Golden Sand Corpse Worm was divided into three types: the Normal Sand Corpse Worm, the Silver Sand Corpse Worm, and the Golden Sand Corpse Worm.
The biggest difference between the three types of Golden Sand Corpse Worm was the accuracy of their directions. The Golden Sand Corpse Worm was naturally the most accurate type. Moreover, only the Golden Sand Corpse Worm could use gold coins to guide the way.
While Chen Mo was listening to the discussions of the surrounding players, many people had already started bargaining with the player selling the Golden Sand Corpse Worm.
"Brother, are you selling it for 20 gold coins?
That's the price, "a fat fatty said.
Chen Mo looked at him and felt that he was familiar. When he took a closer look, he realized that he was the profiteer from East Sea City called Scarecrow.
"Damn profiteer, get lost!
Don't think that I don't know the price. There might not even be one Golden Sand Corpse Worm in a day. You want to buy it for 20 gold coins?
Dream on! "
The player selling the Golden Sand Corpse Worm shouted at Scarecrow.
"It's okay if the price is too low. How much do you want?
When doing business, there's always room for discussion! "
Scarecrow was scolded but he did not take it seriously. He was indeed a profiteer. His face and attitude were far thicker than an average person's.
"Say no more. I have already decided to sell it to someone else!" the player shook his head and walked towards a woman beside him.
Chen Mo was stunned when he saw her.
This person was none other than Lian Hongyu from the City of Shadows.
"Lian Hongyu, it's you again!"
Scarecrow's tone was filled with dissatisfaction when he saw Lian Hongyu. He reckoned that Lian Hongyu must have stolen quite a lot of his business.
After trading the Golden Sand Corpse Worm with the player, Lian Hongyu looked at Scarecrow with a smile and said, "I'm sorry, Scarecrow. He has traded with me before and we have some relationship. Of course he will sell it to me."
"Hmph!" Scarecrow could not say much. He coldly snorted and turned to leave. What the eye doesn't see, the heart doesn't grieve over.
Chen Mo sighed inwardly when he saw this. Although they were both people, the two of them were clearly walking on two different paths.
It seemed that the Golden Sand Corpse Worm was indispensable in order to enter Nain's mausoleum. Chen Mo thought for a moment and walked towards Lian Hongyu.
"It's you?
Long time no see. "
Lian Hongyu's eyes lit up when she saw Chen Mo. It was hard for her to forget this big customer that she had known since the beginning of the game.
The two of them hadn't seen each other for almost two months.
"Long time no see. Business seems to be doing well," Chen Mo said with a smile.
"It's not bad at all. Business is getting harder and harder. Otherwise, I wouldn't have to come all the way here to collect my goods," Lian Hongyu smiled bitterly and shook her head.
"What's the matter?" Chen Mo asked curiously.
"It's a long story. In short, normal equipment isn't worth much and can't be sold for a good price. As for rare equipment, it's not easy to get. Even if we do, there's a risk of losing money."
Lian Hongyu shook her head. When Chen Mo saw this, he did not ask for more details.
"It's been so long since we last met. Do you have anything good on hand? Let's take a look."
After which, Lian Hongyu smiled and looked at Chen Mo.
Good stuff?
He really did have some in his storage.
…
The first one was even better.
