78. The Three Holy Artifacts
"Do you know why I can become the leader of this ceremony?" The man in black robe held a dagger made of obsidian and stood facing the child's frightened eyes.
Xiang Yu Di's eyes jumped over the leader's back, and he looked expressionlessly at the two boys and girls leaning on each other in the corner.
The boy hugged the girl tightly and blocked her behind him with his trembling body. His eyes moved back and forth towards Yu Di and the man in black robes. His mouth was slightly opened as if he wanted to say something, but he couldn't speak out of fear.
Xiang Yudi also saw them when he came here last time.
But there were seven or eight children at that time.
"Because of them?" he asked tentatively.
The man in black robe smiled:
"You mean those three sacred artifacts?
"No, they are important in this matter, but the point is that I made a deal with other sects. This is the devil's law and the source of our power.
"If the construction of the Gate of Hell is completed, all sects will benefit. No matter they are mortals or devils, everyone will get satisfactory rewards. This is why I can explain the cooperation between devils and devil sects.
"There are only two kinds of people in the world, those who are suitable for trading and those who are not suitable for trading. Real devil cultists and most devil cultists belong to the former, while members of the Coordination Bureau belong to the latter.
"For the former, if there is no simple solution, finding an exchange of interests that is acceptable to both you and them can solve any problem.
"As for the latter, you just need to use the former to deal with them, just like I exchanged information with Huang Qingfeng from the Supervision Department and asked you to go inside and summon the demon.
"And how to get others to agree to your terms and ensure that you don't suffer any loss is what you have to learn. This is also the essence of devil's ritual."
The man in black robe raised his obsidian dagger and walked towards the two children.
The boy stammered:
"Please, please, don't kill us. They have taught us well. She and I can serve you and the young adult. We can do anything..."
As he spoke, he cast a pleading look at Yu Di.
laugh.
The dagger passed through the throats of the two children cleanly, and the surface turned a strange dark red color, while the two cold corpses without blood were nestled in the corner forever.
"For example, suitable blood is not easy to get, but as long as you find the right mortal, you can buy such high-quality goods."
The man in black robe put the blood dagger into his arms. This sacred sacrificial weapon that can absorb blood is one of the reasons why it has reached its current status, and it is also the most mysterious one among them.
Xiang Yudi only saw the man in black robe using this dagger when he was performing rituals. However, in addition to controlling blood and assisting in rituals, this weapon also has various wonderful abilities. Sometimes he even felt that he could hear the blade.
A low murmur came out.
It is the existence of this dagger that makes the construction of the Gate of Hell feasible. Otherwise, it may take more than ten years for a group of Level III Hell believers to complete such a huge ritual.
And within half a year, they will be completely wiped out.
But the blood dagger was not his target.
The robe on the man is the second sacred instrument and the most important thing in his life until now. It gives its owner the ability to walk in the shadow dimension.
Creatures in the shadow dimension cannot see other living creatures, nor can they interact with life, but the shadow robe itself will provide it with the power to survive and move at high speed inside. In other words, as long as it enters the shadow dimension, no one can
There is no way to cause any harm to him.
And during the battle, he can also enter the safe area at any time to carry out short-distance high-speed movement and repair. If he encounters an opponent that he cannot resist, he can also use this to escape. Otherwise, he would have died by a certain level IV ability user.
in hand.
Coupled with his third holy weapon, it was enough for the man in black robe to briefly rival those with level IV abilities.
Shadow Sword.
It was a weapon that matched the robe, and they formed a complete level IV weapon.
The Shadow Sword looks like an ordinary sword hilt. When it is in the shadow dimension, it can accumulate power. When wielded in reality, it turns the shadow dimension itself into a sword blade and can cut through any mortal object.
.
If the robe can transport the user into the shadow dimension, then the sword can bring the dimension itself into reality.
However, although this pair of weapons is magical, it actually has many shortcomings. For example, creatures in the shadow dimension cannot see living creatures. Although it can make up for this shortcoming by moving at high speed against most enemies, it will still be afraid of other enemies with high speed.
A capable opponent.
For example, when facing Qin Lan, when facing other third-level ability users, the man in black robe can appear in front of him in the blink of an eye with the help of his shadow robe, but when facing Qin Lan, he may not be able to grab the other party's clothes.
.
This is one reason why the man in black robe never thought of attacking Qin Lan.
But the main reason is that her sister's name is Qin Luan.
Although the Shadow Sword is indestructible, it is powerless against creatures that cannot be killed by beheading. Fortunately, the opponents of the men in black robes are often other human beings, who will basically die as long as their heads are cut off.
This is why the Coordination Bureau sent the Yin and Yang Twins to deal with them - they were already dead.
Therefore, although the man in black robe is an elusive and deadly killer comparable to level IV, he is still unable to confront the Coordination Bureau head-on.
Under the premise of knowing his specific abilities, the Coordination Bureau can easily find someone with abilities to restrain him.
But as he said himself, what the man in black robe is best at is not fighting, but the use of devil's rituals and the means of making deals, and in a certain sense there is no difference between the two.
The man in black robe suddenly said:
"The devil didn't make the deal."
Xiang Yu Di looked at his back in surprise:
"What?"
The man in black robe also said with some doubt:
"Did I underestimate Qin Lan?
"But it shouldn't be difficult to kill two psychics in front of her. What went wrong?"
No matter what, the failure has become a fact, and Huang Qingfeng is dead. It is impossible for him to repeat such an efficient attack. The man in black robe knows that he has to admit it.
This was a mistake.
Fortunately, he didn't put all his chips on the table.
The leader shook his robe:
"I misjudged what I needed from my opponent.
"Let's go."
Xiang Yu Di asked puzzledly:
"Where to go?"
He said in a low voice:
"Go meet our new friends in the Federation, we're going to renegotiate a deal.
"I believe both parties will be satisfied in the end."
This is the strongest power given to him by the shadow robe.
