"Doesn’t this look like another form of slavery?"
Su Muyu said with a serious expression, "I don’t know if you felt it too, but when I touched this scythe, I had a very strange feeling, like goosebumps all over, though I’m not sure how that feeling ca about."
Lu Heng pondered for a mont and speculated, "It might be because your perception is relatively high, allowing you to sense things we can’t."
This situation is quite common.
Perception itself is a comprehensive embodint of all sensory abilities like vision, hearing, and intuition.
Sotis people can feel when soone is staring at them, which is also a manifestation of perception.
Superpower users of the Perception System are more sensitive in this regard than ordinary people, so it’s normal for them to feel things others can’t detect.
"So how do we handle this scythe now?" Su Muyu thought for a mont and asked.
Lu Heng looked at the three mbers of the team and asked, "Do you guys have any thoughts on this class?"
Lin Zeyu waved his hand and said, "At first, I had so thoughts, but when you ntioned it might be controlled by the Bone Sovereign, forget it. I don’t want to turn into a skeleton."
Xie Shi’en was seriously considering it because he is on the Spiritual system enhancent route, and his current class is [Spirit Mind Master].
According to his class path, it’s actually compatible with the [Death God’s Deputy] class.
The problem remains the sa: if acquiring this class truly ans working for so existence, that’s not a good choice.
He pondered for a mont and asked, "If we don’t sacrifice blood, can this scythe still exert its power?"
On this point, Lu Heng had already tested it:
"I’ve tested it, the physical attack power can be exerted, aning that even without sacrificing blood, this scythe is a divine weapon with attack power as high as 650 points.
"Aside from that, other special effects and skill effects won’t be triggered.
"However, the scythe’s life-draining ability will still be there, absorbing the target’s life when attacking a living being, but it won’t be fed back to the user."
Lin Zeyu summarized with a simple sentence: "So it’s just a high attack whiteboard weapon without sacrificing blood?"
As he said, without sacrificing blood, this scythe is indeed just a high attack whiteboard.
After so careful consideration, Lu Heng said, "Given that this scythe might have enslavent attributes, we won’t sacrifice blood for now and store it away. Once the Abyss Battlefield ends, we’ll consider how to deal with this scythe."
"That works, let’s do that."
All three agreed, as it’s the more cautious approach.
After discussing how to handle the Blood Scythe, Su Muyu changed the topic and said, "Luckily, when we opened the seal, the Bone Sovereign didn’t appear.
"I was really nervous at the ti. If the Bone Sovereign had shown up, it would have been a disaster."
Her worry was justified, as the Creator Organization’s raiding team was there, along with the need to deal with the Abyss Pollution Source and Santos’s skeleton.
Those were already difficult enough, adding the Bone Sovereign would have made things more dangerous.
Lu Heng was rather calm: "Because the Bone Sovereign didn’t know about our operation this ti. According to my guess, Ke Yiming can indeed have a special connection with the Bone Sovereign, but it needs the Blood Scythe as a dium.
"Before devising the action plan, I got the scythe from Ke Yiming, so he couldn’t alert the Bone Sovereign.
"Moreover, I believe even if the Bone Sovereign knew, it wouldn’t show up.
"Because he should be busy collecting biological skeletons to establish his Skeletal Army.
"It’s a ti-consuming task to gather the skeletal remains of a hundred thousand powerful beings, which requires traversing a significant portion of the continent."
After the team of four finished the discussion, Su Muyu said, "I want to go to the dungeon to see the Blueblood, I have a few questions to ask."
Blueblood, a perceiver in the raiding team of the Creator Organization, real na Bob Bellock, is a high-ranking rcenary in the biggest superpower rcenary group "Delegate" in the White Eagle Federation, and also a mber of the Creator Organization, number 017.
All these basic details about Blueblood have been clearly stated.
Currently, Blueblood is detained in the Magic Prohibition Prison of the Elf Clan; unless commanded by Queen Orelana, one cannot et him.
After all, Blueblood is human, and also a summoner.
This ans that the Elf Clan can only detain him until the Abyss Battlefield ends.
Once the return ti arrives, as long as he is alive, no matter where he’s detained, he will be teleported back to his original world.
Of course, they could choose to kill him before the return ti arrives.
Knowing why Su Muyu wanted to see Blueblood, Lu Heng took her to et Queen Orelana to get permission to enter the dungeon.
Inside the dungeon.
Blueblood was held in a room built of stone, empty with no windows or doors.
Yes, no doors, but a magic barrier kept him from walking out.
Blueblood had a typical Western face, brown-haired with closed eyes, but beneath his skin lay a faint blue hue.
This faint blueness isn’t the color of his skin, but rather lies beneath it.
Human blood is red, with normal skin being rosy-white, but Blueblood’s clearly isn’t.
The most obvious feature was his lips, as if sared with a bizarre deep blue lipstick.
He always wore a mask before, so his skin tone wasn’t visible, and his arms and other parts were covered with clothes and armor, also hiding his skin tone.
In fact, if one could see his skin tone, identifying him would be much easier.
After all, there are not many high-ranking superpower users with blue blood in the Human World, and a brief investigation could reveal his identity.
This is probably why he covered his whole body with clothing.
Initially, Lu Heng didn’t know why his blood was blue, but when eting Queen Orelana, he got the answer from her.
This was the result of an Abyss mutation.
No doubt about it, Blueblood underwent a mutation.
That is, absorbing too much chaotic energy from the Abyss led to bodily mutations.
The direction of Abyss mutations is uncertain, similar to genetic mutations in humans, with both positive and negative mutations.
Human genetic mutations often have no effect, as most of the DNA is not expressed.
Only when the expressed part mutates does it manifest on a person.
Genetic mutations are random, and so are Abyss mutations.
The difference is that Abyss mutations don’t go unexpressed, yet most are negative, leading to various strange traits in humans.
Blueblood was quite fortunate, as his mutation was positive, albeit with the unique trait of blue blood, granting him higher blood healing ability and a stronger blood oxygen concentration.
Of course, even with a positive mutation, he dared not continue absorbing Abyss energy.
Because controlling the degree of mutation is crucial; although the current blue mutation is positive, there’s no guarantee of maintaining stability with further mutations.
Once the mutation gets out of control, the results could be unpredictable.
Lu Heng looked at his blue skin and asked, "Did the Creator Organization conduct experints with your blood?"
Blueblood nodded: "Yes, they did."
Lu Heng continued, "Did you see the experintal data?"
Blueblood shook his head, "I’m not involved in research work, even if I had the data, I wouldn’t understand it, and the Creator Organization wouldn’t show it to ."
Lu Heng glanced at Su Muyu, signaling her to ask questions.
Su Muyu stepped forward, asking, "You took the Life Tree Vine from the Knowledge Ancient Tree, right?"
Blueblood nodded, "Indeed, the Life Tree Vine was taken."
Su Muyu took a deep breath and asked further, "Where is the Life Tree Vine now?"
Blueblood thought for a mont and replied, "As far as I know, the Life Tree Vine was used as Class Source Material and given to 028, who then passed it to you. The information I saw also indicates you have the Life Tree Vine."
Su Muyu was unsatisfied with this answer and continued, "I’m asking about the remaining Life Tree Vine, where is it placed?"
Blueblood shook his head and answered, "After the Life Tree Vine was brought back, it was handed over and is now in the organization’s hands; its use isn’t for to decide."
Su Muyu pondered for a mont and asked further, "So no one in your team has absorbed the Life Tree Vine?"
Blueblood answered, "Of course not, the Life Tree Vine is clearly an auxiliary-type Source Material Ability, and neither the Pharaoh nor Red Beard is interested in anything other than offensive abilities, so they wouldn’t absorb this kind of auxiliary Source Material."
