Chapter 352 Sneaking Into the Vatican
"Do you know what the devil's greatest ability is?" the old magician asked.
"The devil's ability?"
Li Yuanhong really didn’t know that when he was a child, he often listened to old people telling stories, but they all talked about gods, monsters, and ghosts, but few people mentioned demons. In Western culture, demons were mentioned a lot, but Li Yuanhong didn't study it.
Seeing Li Yuanhong's confused expression, the old magician spoke up and said: "The greatest skill of the devil is to seduce, to inspire the darkness in human hearts, so that they fall into the devil's way and become a clan of devils. Although these humans who fall into the devil's path appear to be Humans, but he has turned into a devil, and the demons who seduce these humans into demons will gain strength from them. Of course, high-level demons will not do such things."
"Why don't those high-level demons do such things?" Li Yuanhong asked.
"Because it is very time-consuming and labor-intensive to seduce humans into becoming demons, and it is also easy to injure themselves. Once the person being seduced resists strongly, or even resists the temptation of the demon, then the demon will not only get no benefits, but Their strength will be greatly reduced. In addition, ordinary humans become devils, and the power that demons get from these people is very limited. These powers are still impressive to low-level demons, but they are not worth mentioning to high-level demons." The old magician explained road.
"I see. Does the old magician mean that once the devil knows that this book falls into the hands of other people, he may seduce those people and steal the book to them?"
"It's not possible, but it will definitely happen," the old magician said.
"Then why does it have to be me?"
"Because you will never be tempted by a demon, no matter how high-level the demon is, even if the demon leader comes."
"Old magician, you think too highly of me!" Li Yuanhong said with a wry smile.
"Haha, I've always judged people very accurately. If I say I can't, I can't. I've dealt with those demons. Okay, I won't talk nonsense. In short, you can't shirk the responsibility of seizing this book. "The old magician looked at Li Yuanhong with a smile.
Li Yuanhong now finally knows that this matter is another very troublesome matter. He originally wanted to use the power of Europe to complete this task more easily, but now it seems that he can only work secretly and must not Let other countries know.
Li Yuanhong quickly left the Magic Academy. Since he couldn't shirk this responsibility, he could only think of ways to enhance his strength and complete the task as soon as possible to prevent long nights and endless dreams.
Li Yuanhong first went to the Magic Tower to pick up the maidenhair fern. Unexpectedly, when this guy saw Li Yuanhong, he wrapped Li Yuanhong's arm with branches and refused to let go. Although Dr. Han only collected some branches and leaves as samples, and let them release some spores. , for analysis, but that’s it, the words about slicing it, deeply frightened the maidenhair fern.
Seeing that the mutated plant was so timid, Li Yuanhong was helpless. He comforted him for a long time before calming down the maidenhair fern. After taking away the maidenhair fern and chatting with Dr. Han, Li Yuanhong went to Dr. Bai's place again. When he left last time, Li Yuanhong gave Dr. Bai a few chili peppers and asked him to help him make some chili pepper mines. It is a very good choice to set traps for enemies in the city.
Saying goodbye to Dr. Bai and Dr. Han, Li Yuanhong went straight to the weapons shop. Li Yuanhong wanted to get the invisible armor.
When they arrived at the weapons workshop, they saw Zhang Haitao still busy.
"Master Zhang, how is the enchantment on the armor?" Li Yuanhong asked quickly while Zhang Haitao was resting.
"Yeah, Boss Li is here. I'll be fine soon. I'll be done in another ten minutes. I'm attaching a large-capacity crystal core battery pack to your armor so that your armor's stealth and protection time can be extended. He's grown a little longer." Zhang Haitao said with a smile on his face.
"Okay, don't be afraid of it taking a long time. We must get this armor ready. By the way, after installing the crystal core, how long can this magic be activated?" Li Yuanhong asked.
"After this is installed and the magic is turned on, it can last for five or six hours without being attacked. If it is attacked, it depends on the strength of the attack. There is an energy warning on the armor. When the energy is insufficient A reminder will be given 20% of the time." Zhang Haitao said.
"Okay, great, I feel relieved now." Li Yuanhong knew that the place he went to this time was dangerous, and it might be common for him to be invisible for three or four hours in a row, so the crystal core battery pack was too much, and Li Yuanhong didn't Too much.
After waiting for more than an hour, Li Yuanhong got the armor. At this time, the armor had changed. It was no longer bright silver, but dark. If placed under a shadow, it could almost blend into the darkness of the shadow. In addition, the armor is very thin and small, not as clumsy as the ancient heavy armor, but the defensive power of this armor is definitely stronger than those of heavy armor, and it contains fine gold.
After getting the armor, Li Yuanhong had dinner, got on a plane overnight, and flew straight to Europe. Li Yuanhong had to arrive in Rome, Italy before dawn, otherwise it would be more difficult to sneak in once dawn.
The Vatican City is located in the city of Rome not far from the west coast of Italy. It is a country in China. It can also be regarded as one city and one country. This city is located on the west side of Rome. The original population here is not large. On the surface, there are only less than 600 people, but in fact there are more than 1,200 people. These extra people are the Holy Knight guards of the Holy See. Of course , even counting these guards, the population here is too small.
However, the Vatican is the seat of the Holy See. Every year, there is an endless stream of pilgrims and tourists. Moreover, the Vatican used to be part of Rome. Rome has a population of nearly three million. Therefore, when the end of the world comes, the Vatican will not be there. Can get rid of bad luck.
Li Yuanhong had previously planned to use the navies of European countries to attack the shore in order to lure out the zombies in Rome, and then lead a sneak attack with special forces to capture the devil's code in one fell swoop. Unfortunately, the old magician's words made Li Yuanhong give up. With the help of Europe's power plan, he had to get this code without knowing it. Li Yuanhong still understood the so-called crime of possessing a jade.
Europe under the night has become dim and dull. Before the end of the world, Europe was the brightest region. But now, let alone the light, even the moonlight shining on the ground will be swallowed up by endless darkness.
Fatty Lu was flying over Europe in a plane. If it weren't for the Beidou navigation system, Fatty Lu would even be lost in the black night sky.
"Brother Li, are you really not bringing anyone with you?" Fatty Lu asked worriedly.
"No, it's more convenient to go alone this time, and I have a life-saving means of escape. When I encounter danger, I can escape in time, and I will never take my life as a joke. But if I take someone with me, it will be a drag. "Li Yuanhong said.
"But it's too dangerous to be alone!" The guard said worriedly at this time.
"It's okay. It's not the first time I've gone to a dangerous place alone. You two don't have to worry. Also, you two must keep it a secret and don't let Luoxia know about it." Li Yuanhong said to the two of them seriously.
"I'm afraid I can't keep this secret for long, right?" Fatty Lu said hesitantly.
"It doesn't take long, just three to five days."
"Then what should I say when my sister-in-law asks?" Fatty Lu asked.
"Just say that I am practicing in seclusion and am breaking through the twentieth level." Li Yuanhong said.
"Brother Li, this is a post-apocalyptic novel, not a novel about cultivating immortals and going into seclusion! Upgrade it and one potion will solve the problem. If one potion is not enough, then two." Fatty Lu curled his lips.
"Haha, now is the time to test your IQ." Li Yuanhong said with a wicked smile.
Fatty Lu shook his head helplessly. It seemed that he could not avoid this disaster.
A few people chatted and laughed, which diluted the depressing atmosphere. After nearly six hours of flight, the plane finally arrived over Rome.
Li Yuanhong did not dare to let Fatty Lu lower the altitude of the plane, fearing that the flying sound of the plane would alert the corpses below and the demon monsters in the city, so Li Yuanhong flew directly at an altitude of more than 2,000 meters, jumped off the plane, and jumped in In the vast darkness.
The most difficult thing about skydiving is not knowing what the ground conditions are like, especially in these apocalyptic days. If you are not careful, you may plunge into a pile of zombies, which is a complete act of seeking death.
When Li Yuanhong jumped out of the plane this time, he was still wearing a gliding suit. When Li Yuanhong descended to more than a thousand meters, Li Yuanhong could vaguely see things on the ground with his true eyes. The place Li Yuanhong chose to land was Rome. In the suburbs to the west of the city, although there are zombies here, the density is by no means as high as in the city. Moreover, outside the city, you can see scattered small towns, or there are gas stations and other buildings on the roadside. Li Yuanhong chose a The farmhouse on the edge of the farmland fell directly. Fortunately, the farmhouse was relatively strong. Li Yuanhong fell on the roof of the farmhouse, which did not cause the roof of the farmhouse to collapse. After landing on the roof, Li Yuanhong quickly changed out of his paragliding suit, the newly acquired armor and masquerade cloak on the ship, and then at this moment, Li Yuanhong felt a bad wind blowing behind him.
Feeling a bad wind coming, Li Yuanhong quickly rolled forward and rolled down from the roof, causing the tiles on the roof to rattle. Even so, the bad wind behind him kept chasing Li Yuanhong and refused. Let him go. At this time, Li Yuanhong still didn't know what it was that attacked him.
However, just as Li Yuanhong rolled out of the eaves and fell to the bottom of the house, Li Yuanhong finally saw a big mouth biting him. It was the mouth of a giant snake. At this time, the sinister snake teeth shone coldly in the moonlight. , Li Yuanhong believed that if he didn't think of a way, he would definitely be bitten by this big snake before landing and become the snake's dinner.
Li Yuanhong quickly took out a crossbow arrow from the space, and fired the crossbow arrows continuously at the open mouth. None of these crossbow arrows missed the target, and they all shot into the mouth of the giant snake.
The giant snake was in pain and immediately retracted its open mouth. Only then did Li Yuanhong fall to the ground with a "bump".
