Chapter 107 The world is about to be hunted! [2 updates, 6000]

"Father, why don't we sell this store? If we continue like this, it will be too late to regret it in the future." The young woman advised hard.

The woman's name is Yuffie, Yuffie Baroque.

The person she was persuading at this time was her father Samir, the manager of the small shop they were in now, and the heir to the Baroque family.

The current patriarch of the Baroque family is Oded Baroque, an old patriarch who is over 800 years old. The reason why he is still the patriarch at this age is not because he is reluctant to take this position, but because his descendants are really disappointing.

The heirs were replaced one after another, but no one could break through to the high-level wizard apprenticeship, so they could only keep replacing the next one.

Samir is the latest heir, so he is also in charge of the most important industry of the Baroque family - the Central City Baroque Alchemy Workshop!

In fact, the Baroque family is not the only alchemy workshop, but the meaning of Central City is completely different from other places.

This is the real center of the Eighth Blood Hell!

Despite the small scale of their small shop in Central City, it is incomparable to any Baroque alchemy workshop elsewhere, and only a few people are needed to maintain the operation of the shop.

But its value is higher than the other twenty-odd Baroque alchemy workshops combined!

The reason is also very simple. Land is at a premium in Central City and it is hard to find a store.

As the core of the Eighth Blood Prison, Central City is naturally not comparable to other places. The number of shops here has always been the same, so if you want to open a store here, you can only spend a lot of money to buy it.

However, most people who can open a shop here are not short of money, and the business in the central city is usually very good, so there is definitely a profit.

Therefore, those newly rising wizarding families who want to prove their status often spend a lot of money to purchase shops in Central City as a symbol of status.

This also makes the prices of shops here surprisingly high, and the rent is also an exaggerated figure.

Logically speaking, a declining wizard family like the Baroque family is not qualified to maintain the Baroque alchemy workshop in Central City. Fortunately, the Baroque family does have two brushes in alchemy, so it can continue to maintain it.

This store prevents it from running into business problems.

But recently, it seems that someone has been eyeing the Baroque alchemy workshop in Central City, and has used various channels to send messages to the Baroque family, either to sell the store at the market price honestly, or to wait and see.

Originally, the Baroque family didn't pay much attention to it, just thinking that the other party was making harsh remarks.

But as they encountered various troublesome events in the past few days, they suddenly remembered the previous warning.

Now even the old patriarch Ode is planning to admit defeat, but Samir is the only one who is unwilling to admit defeat and wants to see if there is any chance of improvement.

However, just a few days ago, his only son suddenly disappeared, leaving him completely confused.

Although he did not have any evidence to prove that this incident was related to the person behind the scenes who threatened the Baroque family, he knew that the truth was the case.

The reason why the other party did not take anything by force was simply because Central City had Central City's rules, which prohibited the use of force to plunder Central City's property.

This is not an empty talk, but a rule set by the eighth prison master himself. Anyone who dares to violate it can give it a try.

Not to mention the newly rising wizard families, even the old wizard families of the Eighth Blood Prison, or the hundreds of lords, who dares not to follow the rules set by the Eighth Prison Lord?

It happened in the past, so it died miserably.

Of course no one would dare to do such a thing now.

The reason why Samir thought he could hold on before was because he knew that the person behind the scenes would not dare to take action against the Baroque family easily, but now that the other party used such a roundabout way to make his son disappear, he really had no choice.

Yuffie kept persuading her father because she was worried about her younger brother.

Now the main figures of the Baroque family have actually agreed to sell out the alchemy workshop in Central City, and Samir is the only opponent.

As long as he changes his mind, everything will go smoothly.

Jingle bell bell—

The sound of wind chimes coming from the door of the store attracted the attention of the father and daughter.

Only then did they notice that there were a few more guests at the door, and one of them looked particularly familiar.

"Uncle Samir, cousin Yuffie, long time no see." Chevara, who had just walked in, immediately recognized the father and daughter and said hello.

"You are...Cheva LS Mir recognized the other party.

"It's me." Chevala smiled and nodded.

…

After a brief reminiscing about old times, Samir and the others learned that Chevala had now taken refuge with the wizard apprentice named Rorschach, and Chevala also learned of the recent troubles the family had encountered.

"No matter whether you want to sell the store or not, you can't negotiate in such a passive situation, otherwise you will be destined to be slaughtered by others." Luo Xia also expressed his opinion at this time.

"I think what the Lord said makes sense. Cousin Dean must be rescued first." Chevara also agreed.

However, Yuffie was a little dissatisfied when she heard this, "Cousin Chevara, are you coming back to cause trouble? All the problems can be solved by selling out the store, and Dean can come back safely, so why bother?"

"Yuffie, why are you talking to your cousin!" Samir scolded his daughter with some dissatisfaction upon hearing this.

"Isn't what I said right? My little brother's life or death is uncertain. Isn't the most important thing to do now to ensure his safety?" Yuffie argued with reason.

"But... alas."

Samir sighed, his tone full of helplessness.

His only son was very likely to fall into the hands of others, so how could he not be anxious? But the problem was that his other identity was the heir of the Baroque family, and he had to consider the family when making decisions.

He could not do such a thing regardless of the interests of the family for the sake of his son's safety.

But what his daughter said was not unreasonable, which put him in a dilemma...

"If you really want to save your little brother, why don't you just take us to find him?" Luo Xia asked suddenly and abruptly.

"What?" Yuffie looked flustered for a moment when she heard this, but she quickly returned to normal and pretended that nothing happened.

However, Chevala had already heard the implication of Rorschach's words immediately, and looked at Yuffie solemnly!

Having been with Rorschach for so long, he knew very well how accurate Rorschach was at seeing people.

Even the Black Bone Wizard, who is the second-ring Morning Star, can't escape Rorschach's eyes, let alone others?

Therefore, even though Rorschach's accusation against Yuffie was extremely severe and even involved the destruction of personality, Chevala still had no doubts.

"Is there any misunderstanding, Mr. Rorschach?" Samir tried to ease it, "Yuffie is Dean's biological sister. The two of them have been closer than most siblings since they were young. There is no way he can be detrimental to Dean.

.”

"Don't say it too harshly, Mr. Samir. I am certainly confident that I will say this." Rorschach said lightly, "Yuffie, you have to think clearly. After the person behind the scenes uses you, he will not

You will definitely abide by your previous promise, are you sure you can always keep abreast of Dean's situation?"

Yuffie's expression was a little uncertain, but her reaction already made Samir's heart thump!

How could he not understand his daughter? Yuffie's reaction was tantamount to acknowledging what Rorschach had said before.

Is the disappearance of my son Dean actually related to my daughter?

"What a sin..." Samir felt only bitterness in his heart.

Rorschach continued: "I heard Chevala introduce the situation in Central City before. I heard that plundering other people's property by force is not allowed here. So think about it and know that the people behind the scenes will really risk it.

Do you want to kidnap your son at the risk of being settled by the eighth prison master?"

"In my opinion, this is undoubtedly not worth the gain. In comparison, it is definitely more cost-effective to let you fight against each other internally."

"Even if he is really stabbed out accidentally, it is because of the internal fighting of your Baroque family, rather than their use of external force to plunder. So tell me, who is easiest to take your son away quietly?"

When Samir heard this, he looked at Yuffie and said, "Is that you?"

Yuffie: "They said that this is the only way for you, father, to recognize the reality. If you continue to fight, you will only die."

Snapped!

Samir slapped him across the face and said sadly: "Would you rather trust outsiders than your own father? If it really gets to the point where it's impossible to do anything, I will naturally give up. Do you need to do this?"

"I..." Yuffie covered her cheek, her face already filled with tears.

"Stop crying, go find someone first. If you have anything to do, we can wait until we get Dean back!" Chevara shouted directly at this time.

"Okay, okay." Yuffie responded with sobs.

When Yuffie led a group of people to the place where she knew her brother Dean should be, the place was already empty, and there was no Dean there.

Samir was furious at this time: "Where are the people?!"

Yuffie's face turned pale: "I don't know, little brother, he should be here..."

She finally realized that she might have been tricked.

The other party never trusted her from the beginning to the end. He just wanted to use her help to trick his brother Dean out, but she still believed him.

"Then what should we do now?" Yuffie was a little anxious.

She did all this not because she really wanted to harm her brother, but because she believed that doing so would be better for her father and the family.

Reality taught her a lesson.

Rorschach didn't bother to care whether she was crying or not, because he was just doing a small favor for Chevala.

But Rorschach walked straight to the street next to him, grabbed a passerby's hair seemingly casually, and pulled him over.

This inexplicable behavior shocked Samir.

However, the next moment he was even more stunned, because he heard Rorschach actually asking: "Tell me where you hid the person, don't waste time."

"I don't understand what you are talking about at all. Why do you arrest people so casually? I will report you to the Judiciary!" The man was anxious.

"He knows where the person is, you can find your own way to ask." Rorschach was too lazy to act with him and directly left the person to Samir.

At this time, Samir would not easily doubt Rorschach's words, even if he did not obey them.

So when Rorschach said that there must be something wrong with this man and knew where his son was, Samir directly gave this man what he had learned throughout his life.

In the end, this person found Dean, and Samir quickly sent someone to pick up his son.

…

"Thank you so much this time, Rorschach. If it weren't for you, I would have become a family sinner." Samir expressed gratitude.

"You're welcome." Luo Xia shook his head.

"By the way, are you also here to participate in this 'blood hunt'?" Samir suddenly asked.

"The blood hunt is about to start again?" Chevara was stunned when he heard this.

"Yes, it will start in less than two months. When you came, didn't you notice that there are a lot of people in Central City recently?" Samir said.

"It seems to be true. I thought it was my imagination. It turned out to be because of the blood hunt. That's no wonder." Chevara rubbed his chin and said.

As he said this, he suddenly noticed Rorschach looking at him.

Only then did he remember that his master was not from the Blood Hell World Group. It was normal that he had never heard of blood hunting. He immediately explained to him:

"The so-called blood hunt is a periodic sacrificial ceremony held every hundred years by the Eighth Blood Prison...During the blood hunt, the prison master will choose a small world attached to the eighth blood prison as the target of the blood hunt, allowing all willing

The wizard apprentices who participated in the blood hunt entered it to complete the sacrifice."

"How to accomplish it?" Rorschach's voice deepened slightly.

"Naturally, we hunt all the creatures in that small world and use their blood to sacrifice to the boundless blood hell." Chevala introduced calmly, "During the blood hunting period, every time you hunt one more creature, the blood you accumulate will also increase."

There will be more, and the stronger the person, the more blood they can provide."

"In the end, the blood hunter ranking will be determined by the amount of blood. Usually the top one thousand people can get generous rewards, and the top ten people can even get the opportunity to enter the 'Eighth Blood Pool'. That is the real

The highlight!”

"Of course the eighth blood pool cannot compare with the legendary boundless blood pool, but even a formal wizard can get huge benefits from the eighth blood pool, and for wizard apprentices, it is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!"

When Chevara said this, he couldn't help but show a look of yearning on his face: "If the high-level wizard apprentice can enter the eighth blood pool, he will basically try to break the boundaries and attack the official wizard soon, and the success rate is higher than

Normally it would be more than a hundred times higher..."

"Using a world as a hunting ground just to complete a routine sacrifice?" Rorschach couldn't help but fell silent after listening to Chevala's explanation.

For someone like Chevara, who was born in the Eighth Blood Prison, he would not understand Rorschach's feelings at this time.

The small world Chevala talks about is actually a world like the Gray Realm, except that the Gray Realm is attached to the Gray Tower World Group.

While Chevara vividly described the excitement of the Blood Hunt, Rorschach was thinking that if one day all members of the Aqua Blue Star came to the Gray Territory, and after that, the Gray Territory would also usher in an event similar to the Blood Hunt.

event.

What should he do then?

This is of course just a hypothesis and may not actually happen, but don’t forget that both the Gray Domain and the Aqua Blue Star are just the experimental sites of the ‘Star Throne’.

When all members of Aqua Blue Star are replaced, no one can predict what the opponent's next move will be.

Even if Rorschach could take a step back and not care about the life and death of Aqua Blue Star or everyone in the Gray Territory, he himself was still a member of the Displacers.

Can he really avoid this kind of trouble?

In fact, he was not sure at all about this.

Originally, when he heard the content of Blood Hunt, he still felt unbearable deep in his heart, but when he thought that Gray Territory and Aqua Blue Star might also encounter this kind of situation in the future, he realized that he was not qualified at all.

When it comes to sympathizing with others, his ridiculous pity is simply worthless in the face of survival.

"Lord, do we want to participate?" Chevara looked at Rorschach.

"why not."

Luo Xia calmed down the inner turmoil and said in deep thought, "This is a once-in-a-hundred-year opportunity. Since you happen to meet it, there is no reason to miss it. Even if you don't get the top ten in the end, it's good to be in the top thousand."

"Understood!" Chevala said enthusiastically.

"I'll leave the specific process to you to arrange. I plan to go into retreat before the official start. If I can go further, I will be more confident." Rorschach said to Chevara.

"No problem, Lord, just rest assured and retreat, just leave these trivial matters to me." Chevara patted his chest and assured.

Rorschach nodded and said no more.

Chevala is still very reliable in this regard, and he doesn't need to worry about it.

He himself started a new retreat. Although it only lasted for less than two months, he actually hadn't had so much free time for a long time.

During this retreat, on the one hand, he sorted out his path as a purgatory knight, and on the other hand, he naturally focused on purgatory meditation.

Although he is in the blood hell world group, he will truly put his consciousness into the purgatory dimension when meditating, and the effect of meditation is not exaggerated.

It has been some time since he advanced to Level 4 in the Purgatory Meditation Technique, and this retreat gave him time to go further.

After he had been in seclusion for a month, the Purgatory Meditation Technique had moved from Level 4 to Level 5, and continued to move towards Level 6.

Almost a few days after his breakthrough, he sensed that the replacement was coming. This time he chose the replacement without hesitation, because what he lacked most now was time.

When he returned to Aqua Blue Planet, he didn't see anyone and spent all his time meditating.

This is actually a bit unbelievable to others, because as we all know, it is impossible to fuse blood or even condense spiritual seeds on Aqua Blue Planet.

Including meditation, it is almost difficult to achieve any improvement because of the inability to perceive the six eternal realms of the wizarding world.

But Rorschach is different.

No matter where he is, he can put his consciousness into the purgatory dimension, and he even condenses his spiritual seeds on the Aqua Blue Star.

If he could keep his composure and not waste any time each time he returned to the Aqua Blue Star, it would be equivalent to gaining a lot of time for meditation practice out of thin air.

Two months later, Rorschach returned to the Eighth Blood Prison.

At this time, he has advanced the Purgatory Meditation Technique to the second half of Level 5, and it may not be long before he can officially enter Level 6.

At that time, he will really be only one step away from becoming a high-level wizard apprentice, and for him, this is actually just a paper change in his realm.

As a purgatory knight, he also practices purgatory meditation. The core of their power is actually the power of purgatory!

The only difference is that one side uses the power of purgatory to polish the physical body, while the other side combines it with spiritual power to create new evolutions.

But this high degree of homology allows him to explode with power that far exceeds the realm of books in any aspect!

This is also one of the reasons why he dares to participate in the blood hunt!

Although he didn't tell Chevara explicitly, he was just aiming for the top ten!

The more he saw the cruelty of the wizarding world, the more he realized that he was not qualified to stop, let alone sympathize with anyone.

In this blood hunt, he is bound to give it a try.

Even if the eighth blood pool may not be useful to him, he still has to experience it. What if it is useful?

If you miss this village, you won’t have this shop.

…

A few days later.

"The number of people participating in the Blood Hunt this time should be the largest in the past ten years. It is said that the rewards will be more generous than in previous years. Even if you don't enter the top one thousand in the end, you can still receive a group baptism of blood..."

Chevala patiently told Rorschach the information about this blood hunt.

Over the past month or so, he has made a lot of preparations.

Including but not limited to collecting all information about the Blood Hunt, especially the information on this session, has become the top priority of collection.

Not to mention, he did collect a lot of valuable information.

In addition, he also borrowed the Baroque alchemy workshop in Central City to refine dozens of alchemy tools used to save his life.

Most of them are clearly high-level alchemy witchcraft tools!

As for the cost, Samir, his uncle, reimbursed him directly without asking for a penny.

This can be regarded as reciprocating a favor, thanking Luo Xia for helping to find his only son Dean.

After completing a series of preparations, the blood hunt is finally about to begin!

On this day, the entire central city became lively!

As a centuries-old sacrificial ceremony, even those who do not participate in the blood hunt are looking forward to it, because you can see part of the blood hunt process, and you can even see the changes in the blood energy of the top one thousand!

A feast like this inevitably involves the opening of the market.

In short, this is like a grand entertainment event. Although it is for the purpose of offering sacrifices to the Boundless Blood Hell, it is also a carnival!

Everyone can participate and get what they need.

Rorschach and Chevara are just inconspicuous parts of it, because there are really enough people involved.

There are more than a thousand high-level wizard apprentices alone!

Even though the number of intermediate wizard apprentices has increased fivefold, the number of junior wizard apprentices is even less than that of intermediate wizard apprentices.

This is of course not because the Eighth Blood Prison lacks junior wizard apprentices, but because most junior wizard apprentices are self-aware and know that they cannot compete with those high-level and intermediate wizard apprentices.

If you go, you will be used as cannon fodder, so it is better not to go.

Moreover, during the blood hunt, their real enemies were not necessarily each other, but the natives of the chosen small world.

Usually, the small worlds that can be selected as the target of blood hunting will not be unchallenging. There is definitely no shortage of high-end combat power that can resist high-level wizard apprentices, otherwise there would be no suspense in the process.

This is not in line with the original intention of blood hunting.
