Bizarre Voyage: Summoning The Fourth Crisis

[Human Skin Banner (Excellent)]

[Type: Weapon]

[Effect: Moderately reduces the cost of Madness-type Magic, Spirit -5]

[Explanation: A Banner made by a Blood Robe Priest from human skin and hair, steeped in the power of Madness.]

'Moderately reduces Magic cost... No wonder that Blood Robe Priest was so cheap.'

"As expected, it's a weapon meant to go with the Faith School."

"It's just a bit disgusting."

Although the Human Skin Banner's texture and appearance were quite realistic, they were in a game, after all, so the two of them weren't too psychologically burdened by it.

[Lord's Commission Letter]

[Type: Letter]

[Content: ...Mr. Domitak, I have fulfilled your request. I leave the rest to you. I will await your good news from down below...]

[Explanation: The commission letter given to the Blood Robe Priest, Domitak, by the Lord.]

"Good news?"

"Looks like this town's Lord is in cahoots with the Blood Robe Priest."

Niuniu was lost in thought.

Although they hadn't gone to the lighthouse, they had visited the port and had also obtained the [Lord's Command] from the captain's body.

"Should we head to the castle next?"

Mushroom glanced ahead. The castle gate was at the end of the square, its iron portcullis half-open.

"No rush. I'm going to log off for a bit first and post the info about the Blood Robe Priest in the group chat."

Niuniu shook his head.

Soon, he temporarily logged off and went to the group chat.

But after habitually scrolling through the chat history, his vision suddenly went dark. It felt like the sky was falling.

I do Bull's Push-ups: "The Candlekeeper can give you an item to expand your Skill Slots?! @Brother Miao Won't Fail the Exam"

Li Miao didn't reply. He was probably still in a dungeon.

But Storyteller replied to him: "Yeah, but it's probably unique and tied to game plot progression. It all comes down to luck."

I do Bull's Push-ups: "More like it depends on affinity!"

I do Bull's Push-ups: "AAAGH, I'm such an idiot! Do you know how much I could do with one more Skill Slot?"

Storyteller: "..."

Storyteller didn't quite understand why Niuniu was so worked up.

However, it was no use for Niuniu to feel regretful. Other than Li Miao and Shore, no other players had encountered such a sudden event.

After calming himself down, he got down to business and posted his discoveries and the information on the various items in the group chat.

I do Bull's Push-ups: "...Even a Warrior like me who hasn't put a single point into Spirit can't meet the requirement. I have no idea how low your Spiritual Value needs to be for this Blood Robe Priest's Fire Ignition Seed."

Storyteller: "...That's a bit strange. Why would there be a Warfire that requires a very low Attribute?"

Just then, Faraway suddenly surfaced in the chat, and he started off with a bombshell.

[Fire Seed·Blood Robe Priest (Initial Stage)]

[Fire Ignition Requirement: Faith Value ≥ 10, Spiritual Value ≤ 3]

[Fire Ignition Effect (at 100%): Constitution +2, Faith +7, Spirit -2]

[Gain Talent "Sacrifice," gain Skill "Substitute Sacrifice"]

[Sacrifice: Consume Faith Value to create a horde of mindless, difficult-to-control Sacrificial Living Corpses.]

[Substitute Sacrifice: Consume Faith Power to swap positions with or control a Sacrificial Living Corpse. Sacrificing a Sacrifice restores your own Faith Power or Life Force.]

[Body Transformation: Damage-taking ability is greatly increased, but Spirit is further reduced by 3 while in the Blood Robe Priest state. When Spirit drops to a negative value, the game character will sometimes act uncontrollably. The lower the Spiritual Value, the higher the probability.]

Poems and the Faraway Place: "These are the Fire Ignition requirements for the Blood Robe Priest, the buffs after ignition, and the Skill effects."

"This Fire Seed is used in a very extreme way. Use with caution."

Faraway gave his summary.

Niuniu and Storyteller, who were still in the chat, were so shocked they were left speechless.

I do Bull's Push-ups: "Holy shit, you live up to your name, Faraway Lord! You've already figured out everything about the Blood Robe Priest so fast. Fucking awesome!"

Storyteller: "...Where did you get all this information? It seems like you'd only know this stuff after trying it out, right? Did you respec your stats again?"

Poems and the Faraway Place: "I found someone to test it. I gave them the Fire Seed and the Banner."

Seeing his message, Niuniu's mouth twitched. "The hell? Faraway Lord, you just gave away so much good stuff? Aren't you taking a huge loss?"

Although most of the Spirit Candle Players got along quite harmoniously, when it came to game items and the like, they would still choose to trade using Wax Oil. How much was exchanged was up to the players themselves, but it was rare for someone like Faraway to just give things away for free.

Poems and the Faraway Place: "It's nothing. The items are useless to me, and it's hard to find players who use the Faith School."

After carefully examining the various effects of the Blood Robe Priest, Storyteller couldn't help but feel astonished.

"This... Sacrifice and Substitute Sacrifice can be self-sufficient? There's no way it doesn't have a cost, right?"

To this, Faraway said, "There is a cost, but the Human Skin Banner reduces it by a lot. That item is crucial."

Hearing this, Storyteller became thoughtful. "The Human Skin Banner directly reduces Spirit by 5, and with the reduction from the Fire Seed itself, it probably reaches -5... Looking at it this way, this Blood Robe Priest Warfire really is extremely radical."

After some analysis, Storyteller quickly understood the pros and cons.

However, the existence of something as peculiar as the Blood Robe Priest only made Storyteller more interested in the game.

"Although the side effect of the character becoming uncontrollable is significant, the Blood Robe Priest's Power is very high. Combined with how cheap its tactics are, that can make up for this drawback to some extent."

"This might be a good new school. I'll have to add it to my video later."
