Situ He looked at the Blood River Overlord sitting opposite him.
He nodded with a slight smile.
When two countries were at war, they did not kill envoys.
In the face of a foreign expert, Situ He was still very gentlemanly.
In the Federal Empire, dignity was a very important thing.
Alucard raised his head and looked at Situ He. Then, he looked at the girl beside Situ He.
The blood in the girl\'s body was sweet and lively.
The blood told him that this girl was at most eighteen years old!
Very young!
And..
Very young, very young. She didn\'t know how to hide her psionic power at all.
Her psionic power fluctuations were very weak.
At most, she was a second lieutenant.
"A second lieutenant can also come to such a place?" Alucard frowned.
He felt the danger and terror of this place.
Those terrifying existences were almost everywhere.
Their will was filled under the floor and in the wallpaper. In the cracks in the ceiling.
Just by feeling it, Alucard felt fear.
But that girl, that weak girl.
But there was nothing unusual.
She put on a relaxed front.
"Will the monsters in this bookstore treat them differently according to their strength?" Alucard thought.
But he immediately rejected this idea.
Because that was impossible!
In the eyes of humans, was there any difference between an ant that could lift a grain of rice and an ant that could only lift a piece of debris?
No!
So, he smiled and asked, "Miss, how do you feel?"
… …
Hidi raised her head and looked at the foreigner sitting opposite her.
Then, she looked at her uncle.
Situ He nodded slightly.
Only then did Hidi reply, "I feel alright …"
That was the truth!
In Hidi\'s eyes, this bookstore in the fog was a mysterious bookstore hidden in a ball of fog.
The inside of the shop seemed to be shrouded in a layer of obscure spiritual light.
This layer of spiritual light lingered on many things.
As a result, these things looked like mosaics, blurry and indistinct.
It was like looking at the things behind the bronze mirror through a bronze mirror.
She could only see a rough outline.
Other than that, she didn\'t feel anything else.
Alucard listened but nodded.
Situ He also nodded slightly.
This was a very important piece of information!
This might reveal some real information!
Of course, humans would not treat two ants differently.
But what if one of the ants had patterns on its body?
Or could it be that this ant was actually a very rare species?
With this in mind, the two of them began to ponder.
At this moment, footsteps came from behind.
Situ He and Alucard turned around at the same time. They saw the mysterious owner of the bookstore, humming an unknown tune as he walked over briskly.
He was holding a card that seemed to be shrouded in a faint aura.
Alucard lowered his head and looked at the card in his hand.
He swallowed his saliva.
The Blood River Overlord finally knew that he had indeed been treated differently here!
But what was the reason?
He looked at the little girl sitting opposite him.
Blood River Overlord was puzzled.
Situ He vaguely guessed something.
He looked at the dangerous card in Blood River Overlord's hand.
He then looked at his niece, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"As expected … that Major Li is indeed a koi!"
He deliberately mentioned that his niece was going to apply to the major's alma mater in order to get closer to her.
… …
"Customer …" Ling Ping'an held the exercise book in his hand and handed it to the little girl. He said, "Take a look. Does it suit your requirements?"
Hidi took the card that was handed to her.
It was slightly warm and cool to the touch, like a piece of high-quality jade.
It was heavy in her hand, full of weight, and had an obvious metallic texture.
She lowered her head and looked at the card.
Layers of green aura surrounded the card, forming a ring-shaped halo.
Hidi vaguely heard an inexplicable whisper.
In the whisper, she understood the purpose of this card.
Every night when she slept, she would put it under her pillow.
When she fell asleep, she would enter a dream under the guidance of the card and begin training.
"Pillow Book!!" Inexplicably, a term popped up in Hidi's mind.
Legend had it that the ancient immortals would make such a strange book and give it to their disciples to protect them.
All along, Hidi had thought that it was just a legend.
She didn't expect to be lucky enough to get one today.
This immediately made her excited, and her little face began to turn red.
She took a deep breath and looked at the mysterious owner of the bookstore in front of her in disbelief.
How could an immortal's book be ordinary?
Even if she sold herself, she wouldn't be able to buy such a precious treasure!
Thus, she looked at her uncle nervously.
Situ He looked at Hidi. He was already prepared. Before he came, Situ He had already made up his mind.
He smiled and took out his phone, asking, "Sir, how much is it?"
Alucard immediately raised his head.
He nervously held the card in his hand and looked at the phone that Situ He took out.
"Money?"
"Can the books here be bought with money?"
The Blood River Overlord's heart thumped.
If he could use money to solve the problem …
Then, Alucard swore that he would buy out this bookstore!
In the past two hundred years, although the power of Britannia had declined day by day.
The pearls and diamonds on the queen's crown had fallen all over the ground.
However, the foundation of an old powerful country was still unimaginable.
Not to mention other things, just the gold reserves of Duke Rhine alone were as much as a thousand tons!
Not only could it fill every inch of space in this bookstore, it might even be able to replace the road outside with gold bricks!
Therefore, the price was not a problem.
As long as he offered a price, no matter what the price was.
He would not bargain!
But …
Could it really be bought with money?
Alucard was a little unconfident.
Because, if it was really a problem that could be solved with money, then why didn't this country buy out this place?
… …
Ling Ping 'an immediately laughed when he heard the inquiry.
He said, "Customer, this exercise book is something from many years ago..."
"Give me ten yuan, and that's about it …"
That exercise book was left behind when Ling Ping 'an's aunt applied for the ancient culture major of Yaodu University.
It had been eating dust under the bookshelf for seven or eight years.
It was because of the protective film that it looked the same as new.
But in reality, it was an old book that had been placed under the bookshelf to eat dust.
Therefore, ten yuan was its normal price.
It was very reasonable!
Of course, Ling Ping 'an knew that even if he offered thirty or forty yuan, the other party would accept it.
But …
Integrity was first in business!
Therefore, as he spoke, he walked behind the counter and took out the QR code that he hadn't taken out for a long time from the drawer. He asked, "Are you paying by mobile phone?"
"Yes!" Situ He's hands trembled as he opened the mobile phone app on his phone and walked over.
Alucard stared at it closely, watching it carefully.
He saw that the mysterious owner of the bookstore took out a card stained with countless blood and filled with countless terrifying howls from the drawer.
The general of the Blackguard walked in front of him with his phone and scanned it.
There was a beep.
The soul of the general of the Blackguard dimmed a lot.
Alucard swallowed his saliva …
"Soul..."
"He actually paid with his soul!"
"The soul of a general of the Blackguard..."
"If I'm not mistaken just now... at least one-tenth of his soul was taken away!"
In other words, the soul of this powerful major general of the Blackguard, who was about to break through, was only worth a hundred yuan!
In other words, his soul was probably only worth about two hundred yuan …
At this moment, Alucard had the thought of throwing down the card in his hand and running away immediately.
But just as this thought appeared, the card in his hand secreted some kind of substance that bound his hands.
Not only that, Alucard was also horrified to find that his main body was also bound by the same force.
He finally knew how Duke Ivy had fallen.
This kind of power that ignored all rules and directly used the soul and bloodline to locate.
It was simply beyond imagination!
In the dark, Alucard felt some kind of will warning him.
Moreover, this was the last warning.
He had no choice but to stand up and ask, "Sir, how much is my book?"
The other party turned his head. The fire in his eyes was as dazzling as the sun.
"Customer... your exercise book is a little more expensive..."
He held the extremely terrifying card and said, "After the discount, it's about sixty-five yuan..."
"I'll erase the change for you..."
"You just need to pay sixty yuan..."
"Cash or mobile phone payment?" He asked. The fire in his eyes rose gently, pulling up flowers of flames on the lenses.
Alucard's body began to tremble as he listened.
Because he discovered a terrifying thing.
That was, the words said by the mysterious bookstore owner were being distorted.
Those characters drilled into his ears and eyes, following the essence and blood in his body, tracing back to his main body.
Then, they echoed in the soul of his main body.
Every word of these words was very normal, and it sounded very normal when they were connected.
But …
Alucard clearly felt that there was another meaning in these distorted words.
However, his soul was too weak, and his strength was too weak.
So he couldn't decipher it at all.
He could only vaguely know that he was asking him to make a choice.
Pay with his soul?
The ghost god with huge sharp horns quietly appeared in the shadows.
The dim Youdu faintly flashed under his huge body.
Once he chose to pay with his soul, then …
Obviously, Alucard understood that he would be controlled by that terrifying ghost god from then on.
From then on, his life and death were no longer in his control.
That was even stricter control than when he was forced to sign a master-slave contract by Van Helsing!
The master-slave contract only restricted him to obey Van Helsing's descendants. If he violated the contract, he would have to pay the price.
And once his soul fell into the hands of that ghost god, he would really be like a fish on the chopping block!
He could do whatever he wanted to his soul.
Whether it was stuffed into a magical artifact or used as a consumable.
It was all in his mind.
Then did he want to use his lifespan?
Alucard raised his head. He was about to be happy when the blood river immediately issued a warning.
Obviously, the lifespan here was not the lifespan of mortals!
It was the length of the blood river!
If he agreed, the entire blood river might be sucked dry in an instant!
So, Alucard knew that he only had one choice — to pay with his soul!
Because if he paid with his lifespan, he would die instantly!
Alucard could only sigh, take out his phone, and walk to the mysterious bookstore owner while trembling. He scanned it.
Beep.
Alucard saw the demon god with sharp horns reach out his horrifying hand that was stained with blood and grab his soul. Alucard then viciously took away a third of his soul!
"My soul... is not even worth 200 yuan..." Alucard took a deep breath.
That made him tremble.
Because that meant that in the eyes of the bookstore owner, the major general of the Blackguard was only slightly weaker than him.
Putting away his phone, Alucard took a deep breath.
He did not dare to stay here any longer.
He quickly said, "I won\'t disturb you anymore..."
Ling Ping\ 'an looked at the notification on his phone and nodded happily. "Customer, take care..."
"If you need anything next time, please come again..."
Alucard swallowed his saliva and replied with a smile that was uglier than crying, "Definitely!"
He held the card in his hand.
He felt the terrifying power coming from the card.
Thus, the Blood River Overlord understood. As long as he could return alive.
Then, he could break the current shackles.
He could truly refine the blood river into his own!
At that time, even Van Helsing\'s contract would no longer be able to restrain him.
Because he would become a true God!
He would become the master of blood and betrayal!
So...
He walked to the door and looked back at the bookstore again.
That was the most terrifying place...
There were countless terrifying existences hidden. In this bookstore, he was as small and fragile as an insect.
One wrong word, one careless thing, and he would immediately be smashed into pieces.
But that was also heaven!
Strength, authority...
As long as he could pay the price, then he could get it!
Just like the card in his hand.
It was dangerous.
But...
Alucard knew that if those old farts in the Land of Qin found out.
Not to mention one-third of the soul.
They were even willing to give up everything in exchange for such a chance!
A chance to be reborn and break the shackles!
Raising his head, Alucard looked at the fog in front of him.
Suddenly, he thought of something.
How should he get out?
He understood that he could not pass through this fog directly.
He could feel the danger of this fog.
Fortunately, at this moment, the door opened.
The major general of the Blackguard with the little girl walked out.
He was holding a flashlight.
The flashlight was turned on and shone at the fog.
The road ahead instantly became safe. Those things that made Alucard\'s hair stand on end quietly left.
So...
The flashlight was a safety certificate?
But why didn\'t I have it?
Alucard was jealous again.
He had no choice but to be thick-skinned and stick close to him. "Sir, do you mind if I go with you?"
Situ He glanced at Alucard and nodded. "Sure!"
To a certain extent, the Blood River Overlord was the enemy of the Federal Empire.
But...
In this world, other than the Federal Empire itself, were there any other friends that could be trusted?
International relations were complicated.
Today\'s friends might not be tomorrow\'s enemies.
And today\'s enemies might not be friends that could be cooperated with.
Situ He had known this for a long time.
Moreover...
The United Kingdom of Butania and the Federal Empire had always been at odds.
But there was one thing that happened to coincide.
That thing was that the territory and sovereignty of the countries in the Land of Qin must be protected and respected!
Thus, the two of them walked towards the fog side by side.
Hidi followed closely behind him.
In the fog, the major general of the Federal Empire\'s Blackguard and the Blood River Overlord of Butania were like friends for many years, chatting and laughing as they walked.
Hidi was dumbfounded by what she had just seen.
The world of adults was indeed very complicated!
...
Ling Ping\ 'an watched as the two groups of customers slowly disappeared into the fog.
He pulled down the shutter door and placed the kitten, Bastet, on the towel.
He picked up his phone and looked at the balance.
The young bookstore owner whistled.
"If I can have such business every day..."
He sold three books today. Although one of them was given away for free, he could enjoy the other party\'s barbecue for free in the future...
The remaining two orders were 60 yuan in his account.
He had earned money for today\'s utility bills!
If he could earn utility bills every day in the future...
The young bookstore owner couldn\'t help but smile happily.
Although he knew that it was impossible.
But it didn\'t stop him from being happy!
