When I traveled through time and became a player, I just wanted to commit suicide

The border, Lake Lienya, and the Rose Church.

"Well...it seems like you like the gift I gave you."

The white mask looked at the returning Li Shanren with satisfaction and rubbed his hands vigorously.

Although Li Shanren did not explain it, he seemed to have special means to identify whether others used the "Festering Blood Finger".

"It's really a wonderful feeling to invade and plunder others, isn't it? This noble blood really suits you. It seems that I have to invite you to join us and become a formal member of our group, and establish a new dynasty with Lord Mung, the Blood King."

The white mask invited with a smile, but that smile always gave people a sense of evil.

"Lord Monger possesses great power and faith, as well as great love. It must be a wise choice for him to join us."

Li Shanren smiled lightly.

Not long ago, as soon as he returned to the earth dragon carriage, he immediately came to the border through the blessed memory that he had repaired during the day. At the same time, he temporarily stopped exploring the magic academy and went directly to find the white mask.

And his goal is to enter the so-called "Blood Dynasty".

So, he bowed slightly to the White Mask and said, "This is exactly what I desire."

"Very good. I think after realizing the hypocrisy of Two Fingers and experiencing my gift, this is the only choice." As expected, the White Mask laughed out loud, "Then please accept this."

He took out a rectangular piece of white cloth with a translucent pattern. The pattern on it was exactly the symbol of the Blood Dynasty.

"This is the final test. I need you to soak this oath cloth in the witch's blood. This test was originally for you Faded Ones to kill your own witch, which means you will say goodbye to the guidance of the two fingers. But since you don't have a witch to accompany you, you can find a witch at random and use her blood to complete this test."

"I'll be back as soon as possible."

Li Shanren accepted the white oath cloth without changing his expression and turned to leave.

While riding Torret to the nearest blessing point, Li Shanren silently thought about where to go to stain the oath cloth with the witch's blood.

There are roughly three ways of getting bloodstained.

The first way requires Li Shanren to return to the first place he arrived at after his first visit to the border area - the Houwang Chapel.

There, there was a dead finger witch.

She was waiting for Li Shanren's arrival, but was killed by an unknown entity, leaving only a corpse. Her soul may have returned to the tree.

This is the finger witch that belongs to Li Shanren, but he does not want to use the witch's blood as a stepping stone to join the Blood Dynasty.

The second way is related to Irena, a girl that Li Shanren had saved in the Weeping Peninsula. (See Chapter 166)

In her original fate, the girl would also be killed by an unknown enemy, and since she seemed to have the qualifications to become a witch, her blood could also be regarded as proof.

But since Li Shanren saved Irena this time and saved her from the fate of death, he naturally would not ask her for blood again.

It would take more than just any amount of blood to completely stain the oath cloth in my hand.

Therefore, there is only one last way to get stained with blood.

Li Shanren fixed his eyes and let out a sigh.

"Let's go to Dianhuo Village."

......

Crazy Fire Village is located in the northeast corner of the Lienia area. You need to start from the east gate of the Magic Academy and go along the main road leading to the Dikedas Elevator. Turn to the east path on the way, and go uphill all the way, and you can see a strange village.

The people in the village, like the civilians in other areas of the border area, have basically lost their minds, but unlike others, they suffer from severe epilepsy, with yellow epilepsy in their eyes, and can even spray flames from their eyes to burn the enemy.

Li Shanren rode Torret all the way to the outside of Dianhuo Village. After some effort, he bypassed the Dianhuo Tower outside the village and found the blessing point nearby.

The Epilepsy Tower is a dilapidated high tower standing at the intersection of the village. On the open-air top of the tower, several villagers suffering from epilepsy are kneeling on the ground with their heads in their hands, their eyes emitting epileptic yellow flames, and they are looking up at the sky in a strange posture, motionless.

This seems to be some kind of special summoning ritual.

When they maintain this posture, they will summon a huge, yellow flame eyeball above the top of the tower. The scorching heat even causes the surrounding air to distort.

This crazy fiery eyeball is quite difficult to deal with. No matter which direction you look at it from, you can feel the eyeball's gaze.

Once it targets you, the fire of insanity will continue to accumulate in your body.

When it reaches a certain level, the epileptic fire will erupt from the whole body and drive people crazy, causing great loss of vitality. If the vitality is insufficient, the person will die directly.

Especially for a faded person like Li Shanren, the speed at which the epilepsy fire accumulates is extremely fast. It may take only a dozen seconds for his body to have an outbreak of epilepsy fire.

Even the spirit shield cannot protect against this strange ability that can cause damage to him just by looking at him.

Li Shanren could only use the shelter near the Epilepsy Tower to crawl his way to the bottom of the tower. After clearing out the large rats at the border area that were also infected with epilepsy, he climbed to the top of the tower and killed the villagers who were suffering from epilepsy, making the area completely safe.

Otherwise, with this Crazy Fire Tower here, Li Shanren would be unable to move forward.

A prayer scroll was left at the top of the Mad Fire Tower, which recorded a Mad Fire faction prayer spell called "Shapolili's Roar". The caster would let out a crazy roar, causing himself and the people around him to accumulate Mad Fire in their bodies, making them more hateful.

However, this spell also has a hidden effect. Within 25 minutes, the caster's damage to the enemy will increase by 30%, and the damage he will receive will increase by %. It has a good gain effect, but the negative effects cannot be ignored.

Rumor has it that Chapolili was the original host of epilepsy, and it was from him that epilepsy spread throughout the borderland. This man is said to be the most hated person in the history of the borderland.

Legend has it that beings with a deep destiny with Dianhuo have the ability to take over the bodies of others.

Li Shanren used the golden apple to peek into the border area, which was one of the six endings. In the end, the owner of that perspective was suspected to be possessed by "Shapolili".

A few minutes later, Li Shanren officially arrived at the entrance of Dianhuo Village.

In the quiet village stood rows of stone houses built with neatly laid bricks. The villagers, with skinny and pale bodies, were either leaning against the wall, or lying on the ground, or sitting with their heads bowed. Their eyes were filled with yellow fire, as if they were infected with epilepsy.

When they saw strangers entering the village, they didn't react much and just stayed there quietly.

In the village, there were some Rhealucalia soldiers who were also infected with epilepsy. They sat silently beside the village avenue, looking haggard and with yellow eyes.

Li Shanren rode his tortoise along the main road of the village for a few steps. Suddenly, he looked carefully and saw an acquaintance sitting on the side of the road.

She had a golden ponytail and was dressed in proper aristocratic girl's attire. Her eyes were covered with a piece of cloth, as if she was blind.

"Irena...why is she here?"

Li Shanren immediately recognized the girl he had helped at the Weeping Peninsula.

His face darkened and after thinking for a moment, he suddenly recalled something that had happened before.

At that time, he had just come to the Lake Lienia area through the back gate of the castle of Greckstoneville, and then met Irena and her father, Edgar, the lord of Morn, who came from another path. (See Chapter 229)

At that time, I heard them say that they were looking for some legendary mysterious village. Could it be this Crazy Fire Village?!

I remember that time, Irena said that she saw a sister named "Haida", who longed for Chapolili grapes, because only by eating those grapes could she feel the so-called "lights on the other side", and then reach the other side and become a finger witch.

The so-called "Chapolili grapes" are actually the eyeballs that have rotted and fallen off from patients with epilepsy, and only patients with extremely serious illnesses can fall off.

At that time, Li Shanren actually had a Chapolili grape in his hand, but he did not give it to Irena, but kept it for himself.

Because the path of the Finger Witch that Irena pursues is not to become a normal Finger Witch, but to become a Mad Fire Witch who guides people to destroy the world. At the end of this path, the Mad Fire Witch will also die.

Li Shanren did not want to follow the path of madness and destruction of the world, so he did not want Irena to follow this path.

But I didn't expect the other party's obsession to be so deep that he actually found the Dianhuo Village...

Li Shanren's eyes darkened, he dismounted from his horse and slowly walked forward.

After a while, "Irena" who heard the footsteps raised her head slightly, turned towards the source of the sound, and asked in a gentle tone: "Is there anyone over there?"

"Irena, why are you here? Where is your father Edgar?" Li Shanren asked with a frown.

The blind girl was surprised when she heard that, and then she smiled politely and said, "Are you the faded master named Lisern? Sorry, I'm not Irena, my name is Haida, and I'm her sister."

"Haida...? Haida!"

Li Shanren murmured, his face slightly shocked.

Then, he suddenly looked at the blind girl, "Did Irena meet with misfortune?"

In the original process of the game, Haida will only appear after Irena dies.

"No, Irena and Lord Edgar are currently living in seclusion on the west shore of Lake Lienia. It was me who left her and set out alone to find the lights on the other side." Haida said softly.

"You broke away from her?!" Li Shanren stared at Haida with a surprised look on his face.

However, he then remembered something and his frown relaxed slightly.

"No, Haida and Irena are most likely not sharing the same body. In the original game process, after Haida appeared, Irena's body remained in the same place and did not disappear. Later, her body could even be used to stain the oath cloth of the White Mask with blood. This shows that Haida did not take over Irena's body..."

Of course, this could also be a loophole in the original game, but based on the rigor of the game producers' previous works in terms of the plot, such an obvious loophole is unlikely to be left.

Therefore, it is not difficult to understand why Haida can condense her own body, or even be another person.

"What does 'getting out' mean? I don't quite understand, Lord Lisern." Haida's face showed a puzzled look.

Li Shanren frowned and explained, "I heard Irena mention you before, but at that time neither I nor Lord Edgar could see your existence. How did you appear?"

"So that's the problem." Haida smiled and covered her mouth, then said seriously, "Because I don't have a real body. I have been living in Irena's body, but I was basically in a sleeping state before, and only recently gradually woke up."

"I heard everything you said to Irena and Lord Edgar. You are right. It is my destiny to find the light of the other shore and become a finger witch. I should not put the blame on Irena, so I left her and embarked on the journey alone."

No actual body?

Li Shanren was slightly stunned, narrowed his eyes, and after a closer look, he found that Haida's body was indeed slightly illusory under the light of the golden tree, but the degree of illusion was very slight and could not be detected without careful observation.

After learning about this, a hint of enlightenment appeared in his eyes.

According to the process in the game, Haida's journey to become the Finger Witch is extremely dangerous. Even the Faded Ones controlled by the players have died countless times on the road.

But Haida, who was apparently powerless, was able to reach the destination safely. This might be because she was a spirit and was immune to most attacks.

Of course, special attacks can still hurt her.

"Then why did you come to Dianhuo Village..." Li Shanren asked after understanding what happened.

"Of course, I'm looking for Chapolili grapes. Without them, I can't feel the lights on the other side, let alone move forward. As you can see, I am blind like Irena, and I need special guidance to continue my journey."

"Fortunately, before leaving Irena, Lord Edgar found a Chapolili grape for me, which led me here."

Haida said softly.

"Lord Lisern, if you have Chapolili grapes, could you please give them to me? With them, I can move forward and complete my mission."

Upon hearing this, Li Shanren was silent for a while, then blew the whistle on his spirit horse and rode on Torret.

"Your mission is to survive, nothing else."

After that, he continued riding along the main road of the village and left without looking back.

Hearing the sound of horse hooves gradually fading away, Haida, who was sitting alone, sighed softly.
