Hell Game: Starting from Metropolis

Amelia raised her hand and made a gesture.

Liu Zheng felt that the gaze that had been staring at him had disappeared.

While waiting, he took out the Blood Gem that he had taken from Dickins' body to examine it.

Name: Extra-Large Radial Blood Gem (Disposable)

Type: Items/Miscellaneous Items

Quality: Excellent

"Effect 1: Direct use can restore your 'blood quality'."

"Effect 2: When inlaid on a weapon, it can provide additional effects."

"Note: Did I do something wrong, Mr. Albert?"

"Can it be taken out of the instance: Yes"

"Super-large? Then are there even giant, super-giant types above that?"

Liu thought to himself with a strange expression.

"Is this Di? Did you get this from that beast?"

Amelia seemed to sense the presence of the Blood Gem.

"Yes."

He readily admitted it.

"He went too far."

Amelia sighed as she tasted the deep, cold, damp blood.

Then, she glanced discreetly at her palm.

How far has she gone?

If it weren't for the power of the Holy Blood, how could Amelia have maintained a youthful appearance and energy even in her seventies?

"So, what is the price, Professor Dickins?"

She spoke in a voice as soft as a mosquito's buzz.

"What did you say?"

"nothing."

Amelia shook her head.

"Although I don't know what your relationship is with that beast, it's my spoils of war and a necessity on my shopping list, so it's impossible for me to give it to you."

Liu Zheng said.

"Of course, this was part of the deal."

Amelia nodded, then fell silent.

After a while, the doors to the main hall were pushed open.

A person dressed in a gray robe walked in carrying a box.

"High Priestess Amelia, your request has been delivered."

He spoke.

"Thanks for your hard work."

Amelia nodded.

The man in the long robe bowed, then backed out of the hall and closed the door.

Liu Zheng opened the box, inside which were three Holy Grails.

He picked up the Holy Grail, and its description immediately popped up.

These are the "Central Grail of Tomel", the "Lower Tomel Grail", and the "Grail of the Weakened City of Rum".

"What about the others?"

Liu Zheng put away the Holy Grail and asked.

"The Blood Gem is in the church workshop. I've already sent someone to arrange it, so you can just go and get it. Beethoven should be waiting for you there too."

"As for the umbilical cord of the divine child..."

Amelia paused.

"That's a very dangerous item. Are you sure you want to take it?"

"Believe me, I've seen things that are far more dangerous than this."

Liu Zheng said calmly.

Is there anything more dangerous than a hellish game?

"Alright, since you insist, I hope you won't be tempted by that unimaginable knowledge and future."

Amelia pressed the mechanism again, and the place where the skull was placed lowered, while another platform rose up.

On the silvery-white silk cloth, there was a strange object.

It looks like a fossil of some kind of snail, covered with holes, but with the texture of a living organism.

"Eat it, and you will become a god."

A voice suddenly appeared in Liu Zheng's ear.

Chapter 284 Is he your illegitimate son? Amelia

"God? More like a lunatic."

Liu Zheng sneered.

Those who become the offspring of gods become the finest ingredients, coveted by all sorts of people and made into sashimi.

If he really became a god, wouldn't he be chased and devoured by people every day?

Judging by Dickins's strength, he didn't think the native gods of Atlantis would have any standing in Metropolis.

Seeing that Liu Zheng remained unmoved, the unknown voice stopped ringing out.

He walked to the main altar and subconsciously turned his head to take a look.

Amelia seemed to have anticipated his move, and lowered her head deeply, revealing only her pale and delicate chin.

"whispering sound."

Liu Zheng pursed his lips, picked up the items on the main altar, and casually put the skull back.

Name: The Child's Umbilical Cord (Disposable)

Type: Item

Quality: Perfect

"Effect 1: After use, you can gain random occult knowledge."

"Effect 2: After use, you can obtain a random number of random skills."

"Effect 3: There is a high probability of obtaining the corresponding bloodline after use."

"Note: The umbilical cord of the stillborn child of God is a hymn to human courage, but also proof of human bestiality."

"Can it be taken out of the instance: Yes"

"Warning: The bloodline corresponding to the current item conflicts with the player's status. Forcing its use may cause unknown consequences."

Goodness, they're all randomly obtained; it's purely based on luck.

However, the system's prompt was completely unnecessary; this was something the city hall specifically requested, and he had no intention of using it anyway.

"What about clues about the other things?"

After Liu Zheng put away the umbilical cord, he asked.

Didn't you hear or see anything?

Amelia asked with some confusion.

"I heard it. It said that eating this will make you a god or something."

he replied.

"Don't you feel even the slightest bit tempted to become a god?"

Amelia was even more confused.

"I'm tempted, but there are differences between gods. A god whose son can be killed is a disgrace. I think I should just give up."

Liu Zheng said.

Although it's quite embarrassing that the evil god could be blasted back by the Red Ghost, at least he's survived to this day thanks to the "rebirth of flesh and blood" enhanced by the Gospel.

Moreover, the other party's good news even blew up Mr. Li's body, which was quite impressive.

If it could replace that evil god, he might reluctantly consider it.

"I will arrange a guide for you, who will take you to collect what you need. However, I still need to decide on the person. You should go to the church workshop to get the Blood Gem first."

Amelia said.

"Alright. Oh, here you go."

Liu Zheng took off the hexagonal iron cage from his head, casually placed it on the main altar, and then walked towards the gate.

After he left, a person dressed in a red and white court dress, but wearing a bird-beak shaped helmet that covered his mouth, emerged from the shadows.

"Just let him go like that?"

The helmeted person spoke, her voice hoarse and strange, but it was still clear that she was a woman.

"if not?"

Amelia countered.

"His blood has a very distinctive taste; the Queen will surely like it."

"That's what the helmeted man said."

"He is someone Beethoven has chosen. If you kill him, are you prepared to face Beethoven's wrath?"

Amelia said.

Ah, Beethoven.

The helmeted man's tone was a mixture of disdain and apprehension.

They were disdainful because these remnants of the race had always looked down on modern humans, and they were wary because Beethoven's strength was indeed enough to pose a threat to them.

After all, he was someone who had once hunted down gods; even during the height of the Tommel civilization, there were few such figures.

The Moonlight Greatsword on the opponent's back is itself one of the most powerful creations of the Tomel civilization.

"How would he know if you don't tell him?"

The helmeted man was still unwilling to give up.

"Beethoven just didn't want to distract himself, which doesn't mean he was a fool. We're all getting old and need to find a successor for ourselves, so you'd better not challenge his bottom line."

Amelia warned.

"Humph."

The helmeted man didn't say anything more, but his gaze, hidden by the helmet, remained intense.

That person's blood smelled so good, so good that even from that distance, it made her feel intoxicated.

She couldn't imagine how pleased the Queen would be to receive such blood.

These inferior humans dare not enjoy it, but these noble descendants have no such concerns.

"If you're not satisfied, then give it a try."

Amelia suddenly said.
