National Games Challenge: Awaken SSS-level talent at the beginning

"Okay, let's drink!"

After soaking for more than ten minutes, seeing that Valinda was about to lose control, Qin Xiao put the diluted dragon blood in front of her.

"Gudong~gudongdong~"

Walinda was like a desert camel that was dying of thirst. She plunged into the basin and gulped blood.

"Hmm, cough, cough, cough!"

Halfway through drinking, Varinda suddenly started to cough violently, and then her body twitched, as if there was a violent confrontation in her body.

Qin Xiao held the Liehuang knife in his hand and paid close attention to her changes.

After all, everything he did was done without any experience and basis. He could only rely on trying and a little luck to ensure that Valinda's state was stable.

Soon, Valinda's body was no longer shriveled, but restored to fullness and beauty.

The black and ferocious lines on her body gradually faded away.

Eyes regained clarity.

The whole person presents a normal state.

"Ouch~" Valinda looked at the blood she drank, and retched violently, but couldn't spit out anything.

"Drink some of this!" Qin Xiao handed over a glass of refreshing fruit juice.

"Thank you!" Valinda did half of it in one breath, and then felt much more comfortable.

After all, normal people, who would drink blood?

"How do you feel?" Qin Xiao asked.

"I feel" Valinda's throat twitching: "I'm so hungry."

Qin Xiao smiled slightly, took out a large bowl of rice with salamanders and put it on the table.

"What kind of food is this?" Valinda's eyes straightened all of a sudden: "It smells so good!"

"You are Elder Qinglong's favorite daughter, you must have eaten a lot of delicacies from mountains and seas, right?" Qin Xiao said, "This is just ordinary food, and it must not be comparable to the delicacies you have eaten!"

"No!" Valinda shook her head violently: "This is the most delicious food I've ever smelled!"

As she spoke, she rushed over, picked up the spoon, and devoured it hungrily.

"It's so fragrant!"

"too delicious!"

"Little brother, are you a chef?!"

"Ah~ This is really the most delicious meal I've ever had!"

Qin Xiao was also a little surprised to see Valinda gobble up Hesse. Could it be that the taste of food has not improved much in the middle-level labyrinth of the Magic Pattern Steel City?

The small snacks I ate on the street before are obviously okay, although they can't be compared with the meals I cook.

After finishing a bowl of rice, Valinda finally felt comfortable.

"Thank you, little brother adventurer!" She bowed deeply to Qin Xiao, showing good upbringing and politeness.

"No matter what the outcome is, I will fully cooperate with you!" Varinda said: "Please cure my illness!"

"I'll do my best!" Qin Xiao nodded: "But you have to tell me in detail what happened in the mine back then, don't miss a single detail!"

"Hmm!" Valinda thought for a while and began to speak.

It turned out that the Elder Qinglong, who was in charge of the magic pattern steel, the lifeblood of the Iron City, was far less handsome than he looked on the outside.

After so many years of development and expansion, the magic pattern steel mines in the surrounding areas of Iron and Steel City have already been exhausted. Just a year ago, the city lord held a council on this matter and decided to send a city defense team to assist the prospectors of Qinglong Mansion to go out to find new mines. of mineral veins.

After traveling for three months, the team finally discovered a large area of ​​magic pattern steel veins in the area bordering Ekui's territory.

Although the exploration team has also discovered in other areas, the ore veins here are not only large in size, but also of high quality.

The only headaches are those wandering evil chiefs nearby.

After a comprehensive analysis, the city lord decided to mine here, even if he paid some price.

So the exploration team took the lead to settle down, and then Iron City sent a large army of up to a thousand people to cut down all the trees within a kilometer radius of the mine vein, leaving those evil chiefs with nowhere to hide.

Then, huge manpower and material resources were spent to build city walls and fortresses, and stationed heavy troops to guard them.

After more than half a year, this mining site has gradually stabilized. Although there are still many villains attacking every night, with the help of the fortifications, the soldiers of the city defense team were able to hold it.

But there are casualties every day, and the war continues to tighten.

Even though supplies and new fighters would be replenished every other week, it was much slower to train a new fighter than to sacrifice one.

Elder Qinglong had no choice but to order the mining team to work day and night, uninterrupted mining 24 hours a day, to ensure the supply of magic pattern steel to the maximum extent.

But just a month ago, something happened in the mine.

Many miners died tragically, and production stagnated.

This mine is related to nearly 50% of the supply of the entire Magic Pattern Steel City, so it must not be lost.

Elder Qinglong got angry in a hurry. Due to the distance, the city defense team couldn't mobilize more manpower for a while, so he had to send his youngest daughter and some elite soldiers in the mansion to deal with this problem.

Fortunately, the monster that disturbed the mine was killed.

According to Varinda, the monster is a thousand-legged centipede with a terrifying human face. It is tens of meters long and is very suitable for wandering in the mine. , became the soul of the dead under his mouth.

But this millipede has a weakness, that is, it is afraid of light.

Valinda equipped everyone in the team with elemental rune lamps, took advantage of this weakness, surrounded them in a dead end, and hacked them to death.

The process went surprisingly smoothly.

However, Valinda vaguely remembered that before the death of the thousand-footed human-faced centipede, she stared at her eyes. At that moment, she was in a trance. When she woke up again, there seemed to be something more in her head, but she couldn't say it. .

After a short rest, I no longer feel any discomfort.

Although he was skeptical, the accompanying doctor conducted a detailed physical examination on Valinda, and found nothing abnormal. After completing the task, he simply returned to Steel City.

This time, Valinda began to experience abnormalities. First, she was photophobic, lethargic, unable to eat, and gradually lost weight.

Then there was a severe bloodthirsty.

Likes to drink the blood of all creatures, especially humanoid intelligent life.

She even devoured the women who served her alive.

Elder Qinglong had no choice but to lock her in the dungeon, and then issued a revelation of seeking a doctor, hoping to find a capable person to cure his daughter's illness. Still can keep this secret.

But going on like this is not a long-term solution. Fortunately, Qin Xiao appeared at a critical moment.

"That is to say, the Kui virus on your body was planted by that thousand-legged centipede!" Qin Xiao said.

"It should be." Valinda frowned slightly: "But... I remember that I didn't have direct contact with that monster, and other people didn't see it touch me. Could this virus be spread through the air?"

"How are the others traveling with you now?" Qin Xiao asked.

"As usual!" Valinda shook her head: "They haven't mutated or been infected with viruses."

"It seems that the thousand-legged centipede is targeting you!" Qin Xiao pondered: "Although there is no direct contact, airborne transmission cannot be ruled out. I think everyone who goes into the mine is infected with this virus, but all In a latent state, only your body is activated!"

"Ah?" Valinda was taken aback: "Then this is too scary!"

"It's not as scary as you think." Qin Xiao said: "Maybe the man behind the scenes is not strong enough, and can only activate one virus carrier at a time, so we need to kill it as soon as possible, so as not to cause more serious damage." as a result of!"

"I will fully cooperate with you!" Valinda clenched her fists: "If...if I lose my mind, or have reached the point of no return, please kill me."

Qin Xiao touched her head and said, "Don't worry, I won't let that day come!"

"Yeah!" Valinda nodded, pointing to the wooden box: "Why don't I go to sleep in it at night, if anything happens, it can also restrain me, so that I don't lose my mind. .”

"No need!" Qin Xiao waved his hand: "With me here, you will be fine, go to bed and sleep!"

"Really?" Valinda's eyes flickered: "In the dungeon, everyone regards me as a monster, only you are not afraid of me and can treat me as a normal person."

Qin Xiao smiled slightly: "Aren't you a normal person now, go to sleep, with me here, the virus in your body dare not come out and make trouble!"
