"I suspect that the 'Lancelot' we are facing is not a real vampire duke - or to be more accurate, he is called a vampire duke in this world and is indeed stronger than other vampire marquises.

Much more. But in the Lord God’s evaluation system, it may not yet conflict with the next realm of power of the Blood Marquis.”

"...What?" Zheng Zha blinked.

He looked at the place where Lancelot died suddenly, and then at himself. Finally, his eyes were placed on Jiang Yu's adamantine storm shield, which had been slashed and obviously damaged.

"You mean... we were almost beaten to pieces. But in the end, we were still dealing with an opponent of the same level?"

"This possibility cannot be ruled out." Chu Xuan turned his gaze and looked at the golden cup in front of him. "Perhaps, this Lancelot has reached a truly higher level in terms of physique and energy pool. However, I feel that it

There is still one thing missing.”

"Difference." Chu Xuan gently touched the inscription on the gold cup. The small and delicate etching marks surrounded the gold cup week after week.

"D-level vampires basically only increase their physical fitness. A small amount of blood energy is accumulated in the body, but it is basically impossible to mobilize it. Just like most D-level bloodlines, except that Qigong is the exchange of energy circulation.

, at the price of D, it basically doesn’t involve the use of energy.”

"The C-level vampires have a complete blood energy circulation. The B-level goes a step further. Not only does it have a more complete energy cycle, but it also has the ability to deform the body, allowing you to release your wings. And the A level above

level, it provides you with the ability to transform energy and body at the same time."

He paused.

"And this logic can be applied to most of the Lord God's strengthening systems - Cheng Xiao's dragon-human transformation and Jiao-chi transformation, Jiang Yu's Little Zhoutian and Great Zhoutian, and Zhan Lan's angel advancement, etc.

Wait... So in the end, I came to a conclusion. That is, in the judgment system of the Lord God, the improvement of the exchange level must not only increase the energy pool and physical fitness, but also a symbolic progress."

"And this vampire duke..." Zhan Lan rubbed his forehead and cut into the topic in a strange tone. "... Under normal conditions, in addition to being faster, stronger, and with more energy pools...

There is not much difference between him and other vampire marquises, even Zheng Zha."

"Even if you practice Qi to a thousand levels, if you don't condense the Dao foundation, you can't cast a golden elixir." Cheng Xiao said in a deep tone.

Then the prototype was revealed - "Uh... cultivation should be like this, right? All the novels I read before seemed to be set like this?"

"It can be understood that way." But Chu Xuan nodded. "This 'Lancelot' didn't show new abilities that were different from the bloodthirsty demonization of the Marquis until he finally used the golden cup, and it was there

When he lost his mind, it can be proved that the unfolding crimson field is the basic ability that the Marquis should have at the next level. Before that, it was just an accumulation that was very deep and powerful enough to be regarded as another level.

, but in essence he has not reached the level of a senior vampire marquis."

It sounds like it makes some sense.

So……

"So?" Zheng Zha scratched his head.

"It is at the same level as you." Chu Xuan turned his attention to Zheng Zha this time. "It can rely on the blood in this golden cup to reach the next level. Moreover, it should have known this when using it.

The cost and the results... But it is a vampire, we are reincarnations, and we are fundamentally different."

"So." Chu Xuan said in a slightly more serious tone. "Do you want to save the exchange resources for becoming a vampire duke... and the price is just to cooperate with me in doing some research?"

……………………

——He is lying to him.

When Chu Xuan's eyes shifted away from Zheng Zha, but he still spoke to Zheng Zha, such a corresponding conclusion appeared in Jiang Yu's mind. Because he knew the setting and had seen the plot, he knew

Every time Chu Xuan deceived Zheng Zha, his eyes would slightly shift outward from each other.

It's not an unintentional move, but a deliberate move - for Chu Xuan, this may be a clear statement to those who agree, "I'm lying to you." However, if you want to understand the meaning behind this move, first of all, you have to

I was deceived so badly that I couldn't even look at it.

A prophet or enlightened person does not need to go through this step - and a prophet or enlightened person will not expose it foolishly. He immediately thought that this was Chu Xuan's revenge for Zheng Zha's remarks that "you have no previous life"

.And if we extend our thinking a little further, it might be because Li Shuaixi, as a 'research assistant', is no longer able to meet the requirements?

Both are possible, maybe both. And the theory proposed by Chu Xuan... seems to sound right.

Because Jiang Yu thought of something.

——In the exchange list of the main god...it seems that the next level of marquis is really not a duke?

Thinking, Jiang Yu checked the memory content in his mind. In the original world line, Zheng Zha's blood enhancement only stayed at B level. And he could see the blood of S level blood emperor. Besides him, another one would

Only two Reinhardts from the Demon Team and Saikai Team had reached the maximum level of vampires. However, they seemed to be unable to see the strengthening of the S-class vampires, so they stopped at AA and claimed to have reached the prince level.

A prince is not a duke. Whether in the East or the West, a prince is a category higher than a duke. It usually refers to the enfeoffed title of the emperor's heir. Of course, the queen's husband can also obtain the title of prince.

The next level up from Earl is indeed Marquis, and the next level up from B is indeed A instead of BB. In the original world line, Zheng Zha was deceived by Chu Xuan when he was planning to redeem the blood of the blood marquis to increase his energy pool.

Exchanged for A-level Hunyuan Qigong. And this means that in the judgment system of the Lord God, Lancelot, the vampire duke, may really be at the same level as Zheng Zha...

——What a ghost!

——This thing is not bought from the Lord God in exchange. It must be counted by the Lord God according to its absolute strength! No matter how much we talk about it, it almost beat us to pieces. If it were not for the protection of the Yagami, and

If they manage to take the lead or organize their front line, we can only escape from the siege of these knights!

——Furthermore! Didn’t Chu Xuan record all the Lord God’s exchange tables? Just say that the next level to be redeemed by the Lord God is a blood prince instead of a duke. Why do you use the words ‘senior marquis’?

Technique!?

——This guy is seeking personal revenge!

Jiang Yu roared in her heart.

But a roar is a roar, and it is completely unnecessary to really roar. Anyway...

"Oh." Zheng Zha nodded stupidly. "Then when do we start?"

Very good, there is no need to save people who are looking for death.

Chu Xuan just pushed up his glasses, but his eyes were on the remaining two sacred artifacts.

"Arondette, and the Bone Qin." Jiang Yu then spoke and continued the previous topic. "From the perspective of maximizing its effect, Arondette can only be used by melee personnel with energy circulation in the body... And I and I

Zheng Zha, it seems that he doesn’t even have much use for it.”

He really didn't have much use for it, and Zheng Zha had a demonic ax in his hand. It seemed that its power wasn't very bad at the moment. So, he first looked at Cheng Xiao, and then at Zhao Yingkong.

Choose one of the two, Li Shuaixi, who is also a melee fighter, cannot use this weapon at all because he does not have energy circulation. As for Zhan Lan, Zhang Jie and Mou Gang Zero, taking it is just a waste of treasure.

"I'll forget it." Cheng Xiao waved his hands, and his hands showed the phenomenon of dragon transformation and then disappeared quietly. "I practice boxing, and I don't know much about fighting and have little interest in it. Also, I may need something with dragon attributes.

Only with military equipment can the most appropriate power be exerted."

It seems that he plans to buy the equipment with his own money...probably.

So, Zhao Yingkong.

"Alondette has the power to ignore defenses. For an assassin, its flaw may be that it is too large?" Jiang Yu stretched out her hand and pushed the treasure, which she didn't know whether it was a holy sword or a magic sword, to Zhao Ying's unprecedented height.

Fang——Heavy armored assassins are not popular at this time, but Zhao Yingkong can indeed use a two-handed sword.

But Zhao Yingkong grabbed the sword without hesitation.

"Assassins... are not so particular." She said softly, spreading from her palm to the end of Arondette, the red and black flow of destined death exuded some kind of threatening power.

Jiang Yu was sure that the storm shield could not stop this composite force.

But whether the shield of the Round Table can withstand it is probably another matter.

He nodded, and finally his eyes fell on the last trophy.

Bone Harp, the sacred weapon of Blood Knight Tristan. One of the famous blood clan sacred weapons, one of its functions is to control the field, and the second function that cannot be verified is to complete the armoring of the holder.

"This is equipment that can only be used by those in the back row...Chu Xuan?"

Chu Xuan waved his hand, he had more noteworthy things to pay attention to.

"Zhan Lan?"

"I'll give it a try." Zhan Lan frowned slightly. She didn't really like this gloomy and evil equipment. But it was necessary to cash in the loot.

So, Jiang Yu pushed the bone piano towards her. And she stretched out her hand and took the blood clan's secret treasure. And the next moment...

‘Zila——’ a crisp sound.

Even a small amount of the sacred power injected into the bone harp collided violently with the darkness contained in the secret treasure itself. Zhan Lan's fingers suddenly flicked outward, and the bone harp almost fell to the ground.

Zhang Jie grabbed it with the power of his mind.

"This treasure is different from the other two Knights of the Round Table weapons that have relatively loose conditions for use." He glanced at the golden cup in Chu Xuan's hand and said slowly. "Perhaps, it can only be put to use if negative energy is filled inside.

.”

Zhang Jie's words are the instructions for the main god card. Among the members present, only two have the power of dark attributes.

"Give it to Zhao Yingkong." Zheng Zha patted his chest. It was made of nano-biochemical fiber and crackled. "The defense on my body is pretty good so far, and Chu Xuan, you also said before that you would help me improve my armor.
Chapter completed!
