Leo was stunned when he saw Leon Belmont suddenly hurting himself with a knife, but he did not stop him. He believed that Leon Belmont was not a madman and he must have had his intentions in doing so.

All he saw was that the sharp blade easily cut open Leon Belmont's arm, and a bone-deep wound appeared in front of Leo. Blood immediately gushes out of the blood vessels and soon flows down the arm.

However, just when the blood flowed to Leon Belmont's fingertips and was about to drip, suddenly the blood retracted upwards from the fingertips as if it was subject to some invisible suction force, and spread to other parts of the surrounding areas.

The blood also began to gather towards the wound again, and in the blink of an eye it all returned to the wound. When all the blood was withdrawn, the wound gradually closed and finally disappeared, as if it had never existed.

Leo couldn't help being shocked when he saw this scene, and looked at Leon Belmont with an incredible look.

"What's wrong?" Leon Belmont felt a little scared when he saw it, so he asked: "Do you know what happened to my body?"

Leo nodded and did not answer directly. Instead, he motioned to Leon Belmont to calm down. Then he fell into deep thought and began to search for information in his memory.

If you are an ordinary person, seeing Leon Belmont's condition, you may think that Leon Belmont's self-healing ability is amazing, and the wound healed quickly as soon as it appeared.

But Leo knew very well that the situation just now had nothing to do with self-healing. It was entirely another reason that caused Leon Belmont's wound to heal. This reason is called the freeze effect in the Earth Federation, and is also called time by some.

Freeze.

As for whether the phenomenon of freeze-frame effect is related to time, even before Leo came to the world of Velen, various civilizations in the universe had not yet concluded, but it is certain that this ability is very powerful.

As the name suggests, time freeze means that within a certain area, all objects there are in an absolutely static state from a temporal perspective. Some scientists prefer to call this situation the photo effect in order for ordinary people to understand it more easily.

For example, when a person is in a frozen state of time, all organic and inorganic objects in his body will be in a state of absolute pause, just like the images in a photo.

If he is injured at this time, the wound will neither worsen nor heal, and the same is true for other conditions of the body, which will neither get better nor worse.

Freeze effects often occur in the universe, and most of them occur near nodes on the subspace plane. Sometimes they appear on certain objects, and sometimes they affect people, and the range of effects is different.

Just like the freeze effect on Leon Belmont's body now freezes his physical state. In other words, no matter what kind of damage his body encounters, even if his neck is cut, as long as there is still a layer of skin attached, it will

They can all return to normal. From a certain perspective, this ability is more powerful than self-healing.

However, not everyone is as lucky as Leon Belmont and can obtain this near-perfect self-healing freeze-frame effect. For some people, the freeze-frame effect acts on a certain organ of the body, such as the stomach, so no matter what he eats

No matter how much you swallow, you will vomit it out due to this effect, and you can only survive by relying on infusion.

Although this effect often appears in living organisms, most of the time it acts in space. If a spacecraft encounters the freezing effect of space, it will definitely be catastrophic for that spacecraft.

.Because part of the spacecraft is within the scope of the space freeze effect, while the other part is in normal space, the final result will only cause the hull to tear and a near-destroying shipwreck will occur.

Therefore, in order to ensure the normal navigation of the spacecraft, from a long time ago, before the Earth Federation entered the cosmic era, the Supreme Council of the cosmic civilization race began to study the various mysteries contained in this effect.

After studying for thousands of years, some civilizations have a certain understanding of the freezing effect at the spatial level, and have even developed some observation tools to discover the hidden freezing effects, and most of these tools

It has been added to the spacecraft's navigator to help the spacecraft avoid invisible and undetectable freeze effects.

But they have no clue at all about the various weird freeze effects that appear on the human body, because the process of producing this effect is almost random and has no reference value. Why does the freeze effect only work when it acts on the human body?

In terms of a certain organ or a certain ability, all this is still an unsolved mystery.

The reason why Leo was able to recognize at a glance that the situation on Leon Belmont was a freeze-frame effect was because one of his soldiers had a similar freeze-frame situation when passing through subspace.

The comrades were sent to the Federal Academy of Sciences and never came out again.

"How did you obtain this ability?" Leo, who recovered from his contemplation, did not explain the freeze effect to Leon Belmont, but asked directly.

"I'll have it after I kill the insect parasitizing in my body," Leon Belmont stroked the wound on his neck and said, "Although it left visible scars here and there, I gained a good

With the ability, it’s quite a deal.”

"You should have acquired the ability to be invisible from the parasite before, right?" Leo said in a deep voice.

"Yes." Leon Belmont looked at Leo with a deep look and said, "Do you also want to gain abilities by killing holy insects like me? I advise you not to learn from me, because even if

It’s me, and I don’t know why I can acquire these abilities. If you follow my example, the end result will most likely be death.”

"Don't worry, I will never be the same as you." Leo responded with certainty.

As he said, obtaining so-called abilities from parasites would be a waste of time, and he didn't like to turn himself into a humanoid Zerg.

Now Leon Belmont is no longer a human being. Although Leo doesn't know how the other party did it, he is very sure that after the parasite is killed, its core gene cells neither die nor leave Leon Belmont.

Instead, Monte's body merged with Leon Belmont, allowing him to gain the power in his genes, and inadvertently initiated the freeze-frame effect.

Leon Belmont made one mistake. This almost self-healing ability did not come from the obsidian parasite. Invisibility was the spell-like ability produced after the obsidian parasite was integrated into his body.

"What are you going to discuss with me?" Leo asked directly without deviating from the topic.

"Get out of this damn place." Leon Belmont was unambiguous and said in a deep voice.

Leo was silent for a moment and said, "Why do you think I want to leave here?"

Leon Belmont smiled and said: "So far you have not accepted the first gift of the Holy Insect. You ran out on the first day you came, and it was a blood moon. You didn't come back until dawn the next day. I think you should have seen it too.

Some interesting stuff. Don't tell me you like this place."

"Have you paid attention to me from the beginning?" Leo frowned and asked.

"No, I pay attention to every new person who comes here, but there are very few people worthy of my contact." Leon Belmont paused here, as if there was something in his words, and said: "After all, here, contact between people must be

There is a wall, so if you get too close, you might hurt yourself."

"Why do you think I'm trustworthy?" Leo asked, seemingly not completely disarming his vigilance.

Leon Belmont responded without thinking: "Feeling, I feel you are trustworthy, this is enough."

Leo looked at Leon Belmont without saying anything, as if he was thinking about something.

Although Leo didn't show any questioning look on his face, he didn't believe Leon Belmont's words at all in his heart, not only because there were many loopholes in Leon Belmont's words, but also because in the world of Velen, Leon Belmont

However, he is known as the Teller of Lies, and it is common knowledge that he can deceive women with his clever words and seductions. There are also many kings and nobles who have been fooled by his deception.

Just now, Leon Belmont deliberately told some truths to make Leo relax his vigilance and feel that he was a trustworthy person. When it was time to discuss things, he could use this trust to do something beneficial to himself.

This may be why the big man said that Leon Belmont killed some people when he was outside.

Although Leon Belmont concealed himself well and did not reveal any flaws, Leo could still feel that Leon Belmont definitely did not leave the island because of boredom, but because of other things, and he seemed to be very anxious.

We need to leave this island in the shortest possible time. Otherwise, we will not suddenly find Leo, a stranger with whom we have not had much contact, as a partner. We should at least observe it for a few more days to make sure that Leo is trustworthy before engaging with him.

of contact.

However, even though he knew that Leon Belmont was not a suitable collaborator and that the other party had ulterior motives, Leo still decided to cooperate with Leon Belmont. Not because of anything else, but because Leon Belmont had been trapped here for many years.

Belmont is definitely the local snake here. If he wants to have a thorough understanding of this strange island in a short period of time, he cannot do without the guidance and introduction of this local snake.

"I have thought it over carefully and agreed to cooperate with you to leave here." Leo pretended to have just escaped from his thoughts and gave an answer that made Leon Belmont happy, but then he added: "But not now.

To be honest, I don’t trust you very much. I don’t know much about this island, this giant city, the Yamu people here, or even the monsters that appeared on the night of the blood moon. If there are any loopholes in your plan to leave, I

I can’t see it, and I’m even more at a loss when encountering danger, so I need to understand the situation here first, and then discuss the specific cooperation with you to leave.”

Leon Belmont is a smart man, how could he not hear Leo's subtext, but Leo's request is not what he wants to see, because only the less Leo knows about the situation here, the less he can use Leo.

can be the most.

Seeing Leon Belmont frowning, Leo added: "Besides me, can you find any other useful collaborators now? I think you can't find any collaborators."

Leon Belmont hesitated and said, "What do you know?"

Leo directly singled out Leon Belmont's situation and said: "I just know that you took the initiative to talk to someone like me, who has never been in contact with you, about cooperation away from here. It shows that you have no other choice."

"No, I have another option, which is to do it alone." After listening to Leo's words, Leon Belmont's face turned cold and he said in a deep voice.

"It is impossible for you to make this choice." Leo did not change his words at all because of Leon Belmont's attitude. He still looked at the other party with great confidence and said: "If this matter can be completed alone,

You wouldn’t be so proactive in seeking a collaborator. If my guess is correct, the people you just mentioned who were killed by you should be the collaborators you found before! Through your own special

The immortal body you arrived can survive in times of crisis, but the collaborators you found do not have the same ability as you."

Leon Belmont was silent for a long time and said in a deep voice: "I hate smart people."

"Me too." Leo responded.

Leon Belmont's tense expression relaxed, he walked to the chair opposite Leo and sat down, and said: "Ask! Ask everything you want to know. If you know, I will answer. If you don't know, I will answer."

Don’t blame me.”

"Okay." Leo nodded, and then said very seriously: "Where is this island?"

"I'm not very clear about this," the first question received a vague answer. Perhaps Leon Belmont felt that such an answer was too much, so he added: "I used to think that this island was also a British island."

It was an undiscovered island in the waters around the Kingdom of Ge, but later I discovered that I was wrong, because there is no winter or summer on this island, only spring and autumn, so I knew that this was not any island known in the ocean."

"Have you ever heard of the Sea of ​​the Abyss?" Leo asked a bit abruptly, as if it was a question that had nothing to do with the previous question.

However, after Leon Belmont heard this question, he looked at Leo in surprise. It was obvious that he did not expect Leo to say this.

Surprised, he said angrily to Leo: "Since you already know everything, why are you asking me?"

"I just have some guesses, not sure." Leo looked at the other party calmly and asked: "How do you know about the Sea of ​​Abyss? Don't you believe in things like wizards and gods? The Sea of ​​Abyss
