The Death List Novel - Chapter 486
Chapter 486 Alcatel
A slender figure quietly appeared behind the blood mist. He lowered his head and looked at the scissors that he had named “Forbidden Broken”. Qin Lun’s face revealed a trace of a smile.
Ever since he obtained the ability to dissect blood, Qin Lun had no idea how to use it, and even if he gave it to Joey, it wouldn’t improve at all. Even though he had a stack of high-level application skills related to mental ability in his hands, it was not of much help to them.
This was the first time Qin Lun felt the limitations of the Laws Body. That’s right, as long as it was a skill scroll acknowledged by the Shattered Universe, the Laws Body would allow the apostles to instantly develop a new combat skill.
Of course, the apostles could also train for a long time and turn the book theory into a martial skill recognized by the Broken Universe, just like Qin Lun’s previous spear skills such as “Weakness Predictor” and “Ballistic Refraction”.
However, the Laws of the Body also had limitations. For example, the apostle truly understood a martial skill in his mind, but as long as the Laws Body could not fuse with the Laws of Battle, he would not be able to use it. Physical skills were better. They could simulate data like Qin Lun, but magic skills were useless.
Therefore, a normal person can also possess the Buddhist “epiphany” ability, while an apostle is impossible.
The Blood of Dissection that Qin Lun had obtained from the Hunter’s World was like this. The Blood of Dissection’s main body was actually transformed from the aura of a murderous demon, only possessing the characteristics of a part of his psychic power.
However, when he wanted to use [Blood of Dissection] to simulate all sorts of martial skills, he discovered that he could only use some basic martial skills. Furthermore, it was a simulation martial skill that could not be recognized by the Broken Universe.
Qin Lun knew that this might have something to do with his physique and energy.
The ability to think was essentially a kind of martial skill system that was produced through the eruption of vitality. Jungle Hunters and Abyss Demon Hunters were both weak. They weren’t magicians who specialized in magic, and their energy wasn’t that great. It was strange that he could use high-level mental abilities.
After many failed attempts, both Qin Lun and Joey had no choice but to admit defeat.
It was similar to Coolapika’s powerful ability to use “oaths and restrictions” through his own will. The apostles would never possess a skill scroll without it. This was a flaw in the origin of the body of Laws.
Perhaps Qin Lun could temporarily use the Scarlet Eye, a treasure from the Hunter’s World. However, this ratio of performance to price was too low. Moreover, relying on the combat power obtained from foreign objects, it was really difficult to rely on for a long time.
After realizing this, Qin Lun had been thinking about how to use the [Blood of Dissection].
[Blood of Dissection] has a powerful ability to decipher, which has been demonstrated in both the Hunter World and Toril World. Regardless of whether it was Kubie’s Discovery Building or the high-grade Lich’s magic shield, they were all as fragile as a thin film in front of [Blood of Dissection].
However, using the Blood of Dissection, which had developed into a martial skill system, as a scalpel was too wasteful. How to fuse the [Blood of Dissection] into his own skill system had become a new topic for Qin Lun in his leisure time in the Shattered Universe.
This topic did not affect him for much longer. Qin Lun quickly thought of another item that was also outside the skill system-the Evil Dagger.
The Evil Dagger, like [Blood of Dissection], had an irreplaceable effect at certain times. Its devouring effect on dark energy and souls was simply the bane of all dark creatures.
However, unless the dark creatures were in a weak state, it was hard to say how effective the Evil Dagger would be. It wasn’t compatible with Qin Lun’s current Demon Hunter profession, and wasn’t a common equipment.
Because of the Demon Hunter’s professional characteristics, Qin Lun had no choice but to cultivate his own swordsmanship, which made the position of the Evil Dagger even more awkward.
When he thought of the Evil Dagger, he realized that this Life Slaughter Legacy really matched the [Blood of Dissection] very well. They weren’t commonly used skills and equipment, and all of them had the special effect of setting the tone with one strike. Qin Lun was also greatly surprised by the combination of the two.
The dissection of the Blood of Dissection and the devouring of the Evil Dagger were perfectly fused together. Moreover, because of his evil taste, the scissors-like item that he had combined actually had a perverted “forbidden break” ability.
The so-called forbidden ability was the source of something that this pair of scissors could cut off. For example, when an apostle’s equipment falls, it automatically returns to the apostle’s storage space after a certain distance, which is equivalent to soul binding.
The restriction of this pair of scissors could directly cut off the connection between the equipment and its owner. Even though the laws within the equipment would dissipate after being cut off, it would still deal a heavy blow to the enemy, especially to the apostles and Samsara.
Not only that, the ability of scissors to cut through the source of things could also be used against summoned beasts and certain low-binding contracts of Laws. If the summoned beast was a non-physical summoning, it would immediately disappear after losing contact with its owner’s origin.
In addition, if the target of the scissors was a spirit body or a weakened creature, the scissors would also activate the devouring ability of the Evil Dagger, devouring a portion of its shredded soul.
This kind of pervert had already begun to catch up with the clown’s mask. Because of this ability, the black and red scissors that could be formed at any time from the Evil Dagger combined with [Blood of Dissection] were known by Qin Lun as “forbidden scissors.”
Of course, every time the forbidden scissors activated the forbidden ability, apart from requiring energy, it would also consume the soul quality of the Evil Dagger. If they could not be replenished in battle, the quality of the scissors would become lower and lower, and eventually, they would be irreparable, requiring Qin Lun to use them with caution.
The area of the blood mist cut off by the forbidden scissors had taken up about 20% of the total area. It wasn’t that Qin Lun didn’t want to cut more, but he had a premonition that this was the limit of the forbidden scissors.
Sneaking a glance at the battle data on the death list, Qin Lun was slightly shocked. Just now, this pair of scissors had actually consumed hundreds of souls, almost falling from a thousand slashes to a hundred slashes.
In addition, there were only eighty to ninety newly devoured souls, and they were slowly replenishing the loss of the murderous relics. This could be considered a loss-making transaction.
However, Qin Lun suddenly felt a chill in his heart. The forbidden scissors could only absorb a portion of the broken soul. Including those souls that had dissipated, the 20% share of the blood mist just now actually contained nearly 200 human souls.
“A monster with over a thousand lives!” Qin Lun’s pupils suddenly turned scarlet red. His normally gentle face was a bit sinister. He licked the broken scissors with his tongue, and an uncontrollable excitement slowly surged out of his heart.
The forbidden scissors cut off the source of the scissors only depended on its connection to the main body, not on the quantity of the scissors. If Alcatel had a hundred souls, then what he had just cut was twenty. If he had ten thousand souls, then it would be two thousand.
Of course, with the Thousand Person Slash quality of the Evil Dagger, if he had really cut off two thousand souls just now, he would probably have been immediately damaged. This world could no longer be used, so he could only wait until he returned to the shattered starry sky to repair it.
However, since Qin Lun had calculated the ratio, he would no longer use the limit attack of the forbidden scissors. Reducing the strength of his attacks could also greatly reduce the consumption of the Evil Dagger. For example, if he only cut off the soul shares of less than 50 people, he might even earn some Soul Forsaken qualities.
Feeling the fatal danger, the blood mist in the air changed again. The blood molecules merged faster. In just a short moment, they transformed into countless bat-like blood-colored membranes, scattering and gathering together, and reassembling into Alcatel.
“You said your name was Gert … Hard!” Alcatel glanced faintly at his left shoulder, where there was a bone-deep wound. Blood was swarming out of the pool, rendering his scarlet trench coat even more dazzling.
Not only did Qin Lun’s attack just now cut off nearly two hundred human souls trapped within Alcatel’s body, it was also the second person in hundreds of years to harm the vampire’s body. The blood that flowed from Alcatel’s shoulders was also human souls bound by vampires.
“Gerthard Heinrich! You have a good memory. Didn’t Miss Intergullah tell you about me?” Qin Lun shrugged his shoulders, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.
He was deliberately trying to stir up war all over the world and preach his return. As for this vampire, he didn’t seem to have paid any attention to his own information. He really didn’t know if this was a failure or not.
“No matter what era, there will always be wars. I’m already used to not asking for the names of my opponents, because sooner or later, they will disappear from my memories!” Alcatel ignored Qin Lun’s mockery and looked up at the night sky with an indifferent expression.
‘”From my time onwards, only this starry sky remained unchanged. Unfortunately, with the development of science and technology, those bright stars began to disappear one by one! Gerthardt, can you understand how I feel?”
Hearing Alcatel’s somewhat ancient words, Qin Lun’s expression slowly changed. He gradually became rigid and indifferent, just like his barren inner world.
“I don’t care about the changes in the world. There are very few things that can attract my attention now. Only exciting battles and adventures, or a few people and things, can awaken my interest and make me realize that I am still a living creature!”
“Hahaha, what a sad existence!” Alcatel covered his face and laughed wildly. In the next moment, he disappeared from the spot.
“Same to you!” Qin Lun grinned and a pentagram mirror suddenly flashed beneath his feet. His figure also disappeared.
“Bang!” The two of them appeared in the air again. They were like wrestling hands that were competing against each other, their hands and fingers clenched together, and they met their heads together.
“Gerthard, tell me, are you still a human?” A trace of extreme excitement appeared on Alcatel’s face. He grinned and stared at Qin Lun with a sinister smile.
“I don’t think … it should be counted as anything!” Blazing blood flames slowly appeared in the depths of Qin Lun’s pupils as he licked his lips bloodthirstily.
“What a pity, such a good opponent!” Alcatel shook his head regretfully as if he was disappointed. He kicked Qin Lun in the abdomen like lightning, sending him flying far away.
“As for me, I can only die at the hands of humans!”
