Seeing Gu Yueyan's calm but panicked look, Dong Chengling smiled and said, "This is the tool I put into the spiritual energy coordinates. It can protect your safety. As long as you use your spiritual energy to touch the mark inside when you are in danger, I will do my best to pull you to my side."

"The range is probably... at least the entire Lian Province is fine."

Ren Suo was slightly startled, looking at the necklace, he thought of the Iron Man he met in the fifth level.

He used the coordinates of a necklace carried by a Xuan Kingdom cultivator to tear open the internal communication between the space and the secret realm.

According to him, in fact all the Xuan Kingdom cultivators present had similar necklaces, but only the highest-quality treasures could preserve enough spiritual energy to serve as coordinates to temporarily break through the secret realm.

Ren Suo later observed and found that there were indeed various colors in the necklace, and the sapphire necklace that was blown away by the iron man was the only one, which showed how precious it was.

Seeing Dong Chengling's gift now, Ren Suo skipped many thought processes and asked directly: "Is this... a reward for the countermeasure system?"

Qiao Muyi's target in the past few days was Dong Chengling, and Ren Suo made everything ideal.

"It is a part of it." Dong Chengling said: "Next, I will serve as the special security consultant of Lianjiang Countermeasure System. Like you, important monks in Lianjiang will have similar props. When they are in danger in the city, I will protect them in time."

"This is too expensive." Ren Suo took a deep breath and said, "You should give it to your family."

Gu Yueyan also nodded repeatedly, put the necklace into the box and pushed it back.

"My family doesn't have any cultivators, and they are not in Lianjiang..." Dong Chengling smiled and said, "Here, you are my family."

Ren Suo already knew how persistent Dong Chengling was, so he didn't refuse and put on the necklace obediently, even though it seemed strange for a man to wear a necklace.

Gu Yueyan refused with a conflicted look on her face, but finally accepted it and put on the necklace with a blushing face.

When Ren Suo opened the level selection, he suddenly found something wrong.

The six levels that have been cleared are completely grey and cannot be entered again, but the seventh level is so terrifying that it seems like it is about to overflow with black juice.

It was as if there were dozens of strong men inside, staring at him with a majestic look.

Ren Suo clicked on the level, and the Contaminated Holy Grail suddenly popped up:

"You did a great job."

Ren Suo was slightly stunned.

"My hope and despair as a human being is that you can put an end to everything, magician." The Tainted Holy Grail said:

"You should have discovered that I, who have been trading with you, am the source of monsters, an existence that grants equal hope and despair to all those who pray."

"If you want to get something, you have to pay the corresponding price. This is the meaning of the Holy Grail. Every magician has the power of the Holy Grail, so the magician can have the hand of sacrifice and redemption, and can cast magic with the help of offerings."

"The Holy Grail is only the embodiment of power, but the desires and despair of mortals have completely polluted the Holy Grail. Even if the Holy Grail gave birth to magicians, it could not solve the despair of the cracked earth. In the end, the Holy Grail brought the last of the earth to the new world."

"Now, only you can put an end to everything."

Ren Suo pressed many buttons and finally pressed a dialog box: "Aren't you the Holy Grail? Why are you helping me?"

Tainted Holy Grail: "The Holy Grail is filled with despair, but also with a sliver of hope. What helps you is that last tiny sliver of hope."

"Mage, your hand of salvation resonates with the remaining hope. Please allow me to use this power to do it for you."

A new option pops up on the Holy Grail exchange list:

「①Obtain three chances of not dying」

"② Overall strength (attack power, defense power, health points, mana points) doubled"

「③Summoning foreign aid」

Ren Suo was stunned for a moment, and looked at the magician's current state:

Level 100 Holy Hand, Level 0 Magic Wrist.

He asked, "What will happen if my Magic Wrist level is greater than my Holy Hand level?"

Tainted Holy Grail: "I will still appear, but the power of hope will not be affected."

Ren Suo had been thinking before, if a normal, non-paying Saint Hand style, wouldn't all the companions have to die before reaching the final level? It turns out there is another trick here, the Holy Grail will give a free help as a trump card for the Saint Hand style.

Moreover, the Holy Hand flow is not as good as the Magic Wrist flow in the early, middle and late stages. This can be seen from the fact that the output of this magician is still not as good as that of other female magicians in the Magic Wrist flow.

If the Holy Hand magician fought alone, Ren Suo would probably not be able to clear a level without fighting for dozens of hours.

Ren Suo: "Can I only choose one of the three? I want all of them."

Tainted Holy Grail: "Yes."

Ren Suo was stunned for a moment. Is that okay?

Tainted Holy Grail: "But apart from the first one you chose, the other two will be provided by the power of despair. You have figured out what will happen then. For example, three chances of immortality will turn you into a stone that cannot move but must be hit three times before you die. A doubling of your overall strength may make you unable to use the offerings, and the summoned aid will actively attack you..."

Ren Suo: "Can't I buy it with my Merits?"

Tainted Holy Grail: "I'm sorry, but there are some things in this world that cannot be bought, such as hope."

Ren Suo: "Who are those magicians waiting in the secret realm? Why can't they redeem and sacrifice themselves?"

Tainted Holy Grail: "They are the last magicians, praying to the Holy Grail for the arrival of a magician who can end the monsters, but in response to their desperate power, they must pay a price: they can no longer deal with monsters."

Ren Suo: "Why are they all women?"

Tainted Holy Grail: "Compared to women, men are more likely to collapse, and the last remaining magicians are women."

What a simple reason...

Ren Suo looked at the wish list. Three times of immortality was meaningless to the Holy Hand Magician. Doubling the overall strength could indeed enhance the combat power, but the third option made Ren Suo more curious.

Save the file first, then select "③ Summon foreign aid".

Tainted Holy Grail: "You have many powerful external aids, but the hope is not strong enough, so there are certain limitations on combat power. Please be careful."

Are there any restrictions on combat power?

The next second, a list appears in the center of the screen:

"Killer, optional"

"Seekers, optional"

"I can do whatever I want, I can't choose"

"Jedi Priest, optional"

"Spirit of the Devouring World, cannot be selected"

"Irina, you can't choose."

“I can’t choose Ren Woxing even though he’s a two-star?” Ren Suo complained. Although he also felt that if the Sixth Generation Family leader Ren Woxing was released, he might be similar to the World Devouring Spirit - that was a terrifying monk who could fight ten thousand at a time, and he could fight head-on. If he was released, the final boss might not even be able to break through his defense.

"But the remaining ones that can be chosen don't have much combat power..."
