Chapter 333 - The Blood Law, Was An Exchange
"Hey, where"s your arrogance from before? Why aren"t you threatening me anymore? Stop staring at that wall, you won"t be able to see anything even if you keep looking!"
Vincent was laying on a hospital bed. He looked over at Justin, who was hiding in the corner and teased him.
Justin"s eyes were tightly shut at that moment. He was hypnotizing himself in his heart. He pretended not to hear or see anything.
He originally thought that Vincent had taken control of his soul unintentionally. He thought that Vincent did not know about the master-servant relations.h.i.+p between the soul and the controller. That was why he wanted to take advantage of the time when Vincent was not in control to lure him step by step into the path of degeneration. Finally, he wanted him to walk on the path to self-destruction. This way, not only could he take revenge, but he could also be freed!
However, Justin did not expect his threat to Vincent to be heard by the others!
Furthermore, Vincent was actually very familiar with controlling souls. He simply exposed his lie. This made Justin somewhat ashamed to face anyone on the aircraft, especially Vincent!
Vincent saw that Justin was determined to face the wall and not look at anyone, so he smiled and said, "Actually, between the two of us, it can only be considered a mutual loss. After all, you died at the hands of Manfred, so there"s no hatred between us that can"t be resolved. Why don"t you cooperate with me in the form of a soul temporarily? Maybe when I"m strong enough, I can go back and find Manfred to avenge you!"
Justin turned around and roared at Vincent, "There"s no hatred that can"t be resolved? That"s because it"s not you who"s dead! Besides, if you hadn"t insisted on exchanging your life with mine, how would Manfred have the chance to sneak up on me? The person I hate the most right now is you. Don"t even think about making me cooperate with you!"
Vincent nodded and muttered to himself, "Since you"re not willing to cooperate, then forget it. I"ll just treat it as having a noisy parrot by my side. Anyway, when I get stronger, I won"t need you to cooperate with me anymore. I remember that I can do something else using spirit binding. I can erase all the spiritual intelligence of the soul while retaining the soul"s memory. It"s equivalent to turning you into a r.e.t.a.r.d. This way, it might be easier for me to control you!"
Justin roared angrily, "How dare you! If you want to erase my intelligence, believe it or not, the vampires will never let you off!"
Vincent looked at Justin in surprise and asked, "So, if I don"t wipe out your intelligence, you can help me get rid of the vampires" pursuit?"
"I..."
Justin looked at Vincent with some hesitation. He knew that he had no bargaining chips at that moment, and Vincent was not someone who would yield to threats. So, if he wanted to protect his soul or if he wanted to be free, he could only compromise with Vincent.
Vincent suddenly said, "In fact, in our current state, although we are master and servant in name, I can"t do anything to you, and you can"t do anything to me. It"s more like an equal partners.h.i.+p. If you are willing to cooperate with me, I think this relations.h.i.+p can be maintained forever until the day you regain your freedom!"
Justin looked at Vincent with excitement and asked with antic.i.p.ation, "What? Did you just say that I can still regain my freedom?"
Vincent nodded and said, "Don"t be happy too early! You are very important to me now. The soul of a level 75 creature is better than all the life-saving cards that I have on me. So, before I am strong enough, I will not give you your freedom! But if you are willing to cooperate with me, I can promise you that I will never control you to do something that will cost you your life. When I am strong enough to protect myself, I will give you your freedom!"
Justin narrowed his eyes and looked at Vincent with some hesitation. After some internal struggle, he could not resist the temptation of freedom in the end. He sighed and said, "Okay, I will cooperate with you based on what you just said! But my condition is that you can"t force me to take action when I don"t want to. If I have information that I don"t want to say, you can"t search my memories by force, but you can exchange it with me through a trade!"
"Deal!"
Vincent nodded and agreed to Justin"s request. At the same time, he secretly heaved a sigh of relief in his heart.
Vincent"s original idea was to control a level 75 creature to work for him. That way, he would have the ability to directly partic.i.p.ate in battles with level 70 creatures and above.
However, after capturing Justin"s soul by force, Vincent realized that the consumption of psionic power to control a soul that was much stronger than his was extremely terrifying!
Once a soul that was bound to him left his body, it was equivalent to entering a state of being controlled. As Justin could leave Vincent"s body and move freely without accepting Vincent"s orders, Justin became a huge burden on Vincent.
Every time Vincent recovered a trace of psionic power, it would be consumed because of Justin"s existence. This was also the root reason why his injuries could not be healed!
As long as Justin was willing to cooperate with him, Vincent"s psionic power would not drain out so quickly.
Justin did not realize that he still had a powerful advantage and that he could actually use it to threaten Vincent. Instead, he took the initiative to ask, "With your current condition, if you don"t have the blood law, it will be extremely difficult for you to recover. I will use the blood law to make a deal with you now. Do you accept?"
Vincent said happily, "I accept! Of course, I accept! What do you want in exchange?"
Justin replied in a deep voice, "After learning the blood law, you will become a member of the Vampire Race in the future! You can never betray the Vampire Race and you cannot take advantage of our weaknesses. You also cannot hurt any vampires. In the future, when the Vampire Race is in danger, you have to do everything that you can to help them!"
Vincent could not help but frown slightly when he heard that. It seemed that Justin was still afraid of him. He was worried that if he did not use the blood law to make a deal, Vincent would be forced to search his memory sooner or later. Therefore, he might as well use the blood law to exchange for Vincent"s promise. In the future, he could observe whether Vincent could fulfill his promise and use it to judge the sincerity of his deal with him.
Vincent thought for a moment and said, "I can promise not to take the initiative to harm the vampires in the future. I will also help them when they are in danger, but there is no need for me to become a member of the Vampire Race. I still want to be a human, how about that?"
Justin seemed to have reserved s.p.a.ce for Vincent to bargain. He nodded without any surprise and said, "Deal!"
After saying that, Justin closed his eyes and shared a piece of information with Vincent.
Vincent suddenly realized that a bunch of information had suddenly rushed into his mind, but he could still handle it. He quickly sorted out the information and concluded the cultivation method of the blood law!
