Chapter 120
Chapter 120
The approach of the vampire made Xia Zhu tremble involuntarily.
Influenced by his Halloween costumes, he can basically be regarded as a half-vampire. In front of real, noble-blooded vampires, he is like a timid little bat.
In this team, it seems that he is the only one who is redundant... Xia Zhu stepped back a few steps to the side, and suddenly realized a problem.
The team requirements for the task, don't you need five different ghosts?His Halloween costume is a vampire, so why do vampires still join the team...
The vampire stood not far away, his eyes moved to Sang Yin and the little black cat in his hand.
Seeing the appearance of the vampire, the little black cat instinctively bared its teeth at him, but after seeing the vampire's face clearly, he found that he looked exactly like the wizard.
It seemed to be aware of it, put away its teeth and claws, and looked at the newly appeared "Mulberry Seal" in front of it.
The little black cat remembered that it had met a vampire. That night, it saw the demon "bullying" Mingshu. Then the vampire took the opportunity to take Mingshu away.
These three monsters look the same, and the aura inside is also the same.
Including the other body, Sang Yin's "main body" that is now sitting with its head bowed silently and its back leaning against the tree trunk.
If that's the case, don't care about it.
The little black cat lowered its head and bit Sang Yin's hand, kicked his arms and jumped onto Ming Shu's body nimbly, squatting on his shoulder.
The most threatening little black cat didn't seem to plan to attack anymore. The vampire took a tentative step forward and threw something in his hand to the ground.
He had a half-smile: "Is this yours?"
The sky was dark, this place was on the outskirts of the town, and the moonlight could just pass through the edge of the clouds. Ming Shu lowered his head and took a closer look, and what lay in the grass turned out to be a devil's tail.
Ming Shu took a breath, and took half a step back in the direction of Sang Yin. The little black cat on his shoulder yelled, "Meow."
Sang Yin protected Ming Shu behind him, and said coldly, "So you took it away."
The demon body he discarded that night was supposed to automatically return to Devil City after dawn, but it fell into the hands of a vampire, so it disappeared.
The vampire smiled: "I was just curious..."
He raised his right hand, a small blue flame rose from his palm, and the flame turned black again in a blink of an eye.
At the same time, Xia Zhu found that in the team list, the word "vampire" had changed to "demon".
But vampires don't seem to have the characteristics of demons on the surface. Could this be a loophole in the system.
Seeing that Sang Yin's complexion became worse in an instant, the vampire seemed to know what he was thinking, the corners of his lips were suppressed, and he snorted coldly: "Don't worry, I'm not those hungry bats, I can drink any blood. "
The implication is that he will not drink the blood of the devil, and he has used other methods to steal the power of the devil.
"No wonder you're a little bit stronger than before," Sang Yin said regretfully, "It's my fault, I couldn't kill you that time."
Xia Zhu was still looking at the team list, the state of the vampire was not stable, the name in the team information changed back and forth between [Vampire] and [Demon].
From the conversation between Sang Yin and the vampire, he can probably figure it out, so the vampire stole the demon's shell?Transformed himself into a monster that was neither demon nor quite a vampire.
Ming Shu is a half-blood witch, which is also different from a pure wizard. The four of them formed a team in a strange and delicate situation.
There is also a little black cat... Xia Zhu looked at the black fur ball squatting on Ming Shu's shoulder.
Combined with what Sang Yin said to it not long ago, let it catch the vampire back... No matter how you look at it, Xia Zhu still can't regard the little black cat as a ferocious and brave monster.
The vampire stopped paying attention to Sang Yin, and once again turned his eyes to Ming Shu who was behind him with half of his face exposed, and changed his tone more gentle: "Scared? I'm sorry."
As soon as the words fell, the demon tail on the ground ignited a black flame, and it was completely burned in the blink of an eye.
A huge bat flew over, landed on a tree not far from Xia Zhu, hung upside down, and sized him up with a pair of small eyes.
Xia Zhu shuddered, and quietly moved away.
"What were you talking about before I came?" the vampire asked aloud, "You want to catch me?"
He thought it was because of the demon's body, but Sang Yin didn't know about it before, and they didn't do anything until now. There must be other reasons for capturing him alive.
Finally mentioned the business, Ming Shu hesitated, turned to look at Sang Yin.
Xia Zhu felt uncomfortable being stared at by the bats on the tree, so she volunteered: "Let me explain!"
He knew very well that since vampires are also Sangyin, they all have one thing in common, that is, they like Mingshu.
"That's it," Xia Zhu steadied his mind, trying not to shake his voice, "Mingshu and I encountered a little difficulty..."
He removed some systems and tasks related, and told the vampires that their team needed him now, and they went together to the town to participate in the Halloween event and asked for candy from several families.
The vampire was silent after listening, and seemed to be thinking about it.
Xia Zhu gradually lost his mind. In such a short period of time, he couldn't make up a reasonable cause and effect, and asking for candy on Halloween is clearly something only children do...
"So that's how it is," the vampire said softly after a while, "Need my help?"
He kept staring at Mingshu, as if he wanted to hear a definite reply from him.
Most of Ming Shu's body was blocked by Sang Yin, and his hand was also held by him. He nodded cautiously: "Well... only you can help us now."
He was inexplicably apprehensive, afraid that the vampire would say something about remuneration again... Now it was not like last time, Sang Yin was here, and the little black cat was also there.
The vampire glanced at the three people on the opposite side. Of course he could help Mingshu. He didn't care about the lives of the others. Now that he had the power of a demon, Sang Yin couldn't threaten him.
However, the kitten squatting on Mingshu's shoulder made him a little concerned.
He appeared in the town every night and learned more about the nocturnal creatures in the town. The little black cat made him feel a familiar and dangerous aura.
The pair of golden pupils were disguised, and the dark appearance changed into the form of a small animal.
The unknown and uncertainty kept the vampire from acting rashly, but he thought for too long, and the little black cat was a little unhappy.
"Meow!" the little black cat yelled in dissatisfaction, and Jin Tong glared at the vampire viciously.
It doesn't care whether the vampire is willing or not, and doesn't intervene in the issue between Sang Yin and "self", Ming Shu is the most important.
If the vampire dared to say no, it would beat him down immediately.
Facing the golden pupils of the little black cat, the vampire was silent for a moment: "Okay."
He naturally stepped forward, came to Ming Shu's side, and drove away the bats on the nearby trees.
"Shall we go now?" The vampire looked at Mingshu and regarded Sang Yin beside him as a transparent person, "The festival has already begun."
He only had Mingshu in his eyes, and he was asking for his opinion. Anyway, since they needed his help, Sang Yin couldn't do anything to him at will.
Before Mingshu could react, Sang Yin pulled him to the other side, away from the vampire, and held his hand tightly, clearly declaring his sovereignty.
The vampire also pretended not to see it, and followed Mingshu closely.
It was Xia Zhu who said in time: "Let's go, let's not waste any more time."
They first left the bodies of the townspeople of Sangyin in the cabin, Xia Zhu rubbed his arms, and walked in front.
Sang Yin and Ming Shu followed closely behind, the little black cat was still squatting on Ming Shu's shoulder, and the vampire was the last one.
On the way out of the woods, the group was very silent.
Hearing the footsteps behind her, Ming Shu couldn't help but look back.
They had already reached the range of the street lights. The vampire had a face exactly like that of a wizard. When he saw Ming Shu looking back at him, he curled his lips into a smile.
Mingshu was in a complicated mood. The vampires were joining temporarily. He agreed so quickly without asking too many questions.
He also knew that the vampire must like him, and now the two "Sang Yin" were forced to coexist peacefully in the same team... I hope the mission can be completed smoothly in a while, and nothing will happen.
The vampire saw Ming Shu's hesitation and apprehension, and he whispered, "Are you worried?"
The wind at night was getting stronger and stronger, and a few strands of Mingshu's hair overflowed the hood and were blown back by the wind.
The vampire was only one step away from him, raised his hand to catch the slightly long hair with his fingertips, and touched Mingshu's side face along the way.
This small move failed to escape Sang Yin, he stopped and looked sideways, and gave the vampire a cold look.
Then Sang Yin adjusted the hood for Ming Shu, squeezed his hand and asked softly, "Is it cold?"
Mingshu raised his head, and he leaned over to kiss him on the lips, the movements were intimate and natural.
Seeing this scene in his eyes, the vampire narrowed his eyes slightly.
He couldn't ignore Sang Yin's face that was exactly the same as his, it looked like he was kissing Mingshu himself...but he couldn't feel it at all, there was no tactile feeling in the picture.
Ming Shu dodged in a hurry, then lowered his head: "It's not cold..."
It's better to go to the task quickly, the atmosphere in this team is too strange.
Seeing this, the little black cat on the shoulder leaned over and rubbed against Ming Shu's cheek: "Meow..."
Sang Yin pushed its head away, in exchange for two shallow scratches, he withdrew his hand nonchalantly: "Let's go."
The woods and the abandoned farm are connected to the shop area on the side of the town, and the further you go, the surroundings become noisy.
The previous nights had never been so lively, Xia Zhu vigilantly chose the most remote route: "Let's go this way."
The place they were going to was a residential area, Xia Zhu walked ahead, passing by the path on the edge of the street.
It was so late, many shops were open, and it was hard to go out at night. The townspeople seemed to be very happy, walking and talking with each other, and the younger ones met to play together, which was more lively than ever.
Ming Shu turned his head to take a look, frowned and leaned towards Sang Yin, grasping his hand tightly.
Under the illumination of the street lamps, the figures of the townspeople were extremely clear. Almost all of them had bloodstains and wounds on their bodies, and a lot of them were stained on the ground and benches.
A young man ran past laughing, holding his right hand, his elbow was twisted unnaturally, and hideous flesh and bones were exposed at the junction.
Is it a dress... But all the townspeople on the street are like this, everyone uniformly uses one type of dress?
Before they came out, Sangyin's townspeople hadn't changed in any way, but he wasn't a real townsman at all.
Among this group of townspeople, they seemed extremely normal. As they walked past, Mingshu felt several eyes looking at them.
Xia Zhu wiped off the cold sweat from his palms on his clothes: "This is too realistic..."
Not only the wounds on the townspeople, but also the smell of blood in the air is very real.
Not far away, a townsman looked straight at them. Half of his face was stained red with blood, and the remaining eyeball was rolling, looking very scary.
Seeing that a few people were about to leave the street, he quickly chased after them, pointing at Mingshu with blood dripping fingertips: "You..."
The vampire flickered, stood in front of Mingshu, raised his foot and kicked over: "Get lost."
The townspeople fell to the ground in embarrassment, and the movement immediately attracted the attention of the surrounding townspeople, who all looked this way.
A few other townspeople surrounded him, but did not act rashly for the time being.
At this moment, the little black cat on Mingshu's shoulder uttered softly: "Meow..."
Several street lights suddenly flickered several times at the same time, and the surrounding vision became dim. The townspeople's faces were full of surprise, and they scattered towards the rear.
Xia Zhu's voice trembled like the rest of his life after a catastrophe: "Let's go, let's go."
He could feel that the townspeople who were staying outside tonight were quite different from the past. They used to have their fear values skyrocketed when they saw a vampire, but now they dared to take the initiative to come over.
But what happened to the street lights just now?Xia Zhu glanced at the little black cat back, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and walked towards the residential area.
Along the way, all the townspeople they met were dressed in blood-stained and injured clothes. Occasionally, one who looked normal turned his head and found a big hole in the back of his head.
After seeing a lot, Ming Shu gradually became numb, holding his nose and moving forward.
When they came to the residential area, they found that it was much quieter here.
The lights are on in every house, the doors are mostly open, there are some Halloween costumes in front of the door, and a few people pass by occasionally.
Xia Zhu stared at a house at the corner of the street, and asked everyone in a low voice: "Go there first? It's just a candy. Let's be thick-skinned and say it's for cats..."
It stands to reason that there will be many children asking for candy together on Halloween, but they didn't see any children in the residential area of this entire street.
Ming Shu and Sang Yin had no objection, Xia Zhu looked at the vampire.
The vampire looked at Mingshu and replied, "Okay."
Xia Zhu took out the cloth bag that had been prepared, and still walked in the front, and came to a house.
The courtyard door was not locked, they walked to the door unimpeded, and Xia Zhu knocked on the door: "Is anyone there?"
Footsteps sounded from inside the door, and a person opened the door: "What's the matter?"
Xia Zhu's face was pale, and he raised the cloth bag with trembling hands: "If you don't give sugar, then..."
He really couldn't say the word mischievous, not only because he was awkward, but also because the costumes of the townspeople in front of him were really scary.
His shirt was almost dyed red, and there was a kitchen knife stuck in the center of his head. The smell of blood came out of his nostrils, and a lot of blood flowed down the wound.
It was so real... as if there was a person standing in front of him who was bleeding from a wound and could still stand and talk.
The townspeople grabbed the door, expressionless: "No sugar."
Unfavorable start, Xia Zhu raised the corner of his mouth stiffly, turned his head and asked the people behind him what to do.
The vampire said at this time: "Do you need candy?"
Xia Zhu nodded blankly, but found that the vampire was looking at Ming Shu.
Ming Shu was also frightened by the appearance of the townspeople in the house, he looked away and said, "Yes."
After getting an affirmative answer, the vampire walked up the steps in front of the door, and Xia Zhu automatically made room for him.
The vampire didn't stop, but went straight into the house, grabbed the townsman's neck tightly, and pushed him against the door: "Tang, where is it?"
The townspeople left their feet off the ground, unable to resist, their blood-stained faces were flushed, and they said with difficulty: "There are..."
The restriction that outsiders are not allowed to enter the house seems to have disappeared, Xia Zhu also tried to walk in, heard what the townspeople said, and hurried to look for it in the kitchen.
The vampire let go and threw the townspeople aside.
Xia Zhu quickly came out of the kitchen, holding a jar of sugar in his hand: "I only found this..."
He put a jar of sugar into a cloth bag and walked out the door, and received a system prompt at the same time as Mingshu.
[Main task 1: Ask for candy on Halloween (5/[-])]
Xia Zhu's tone relaxed: "Fortunately, it's useful."
Ming Shu turned off the system message and raised his head, his face suddenly changed slightly: "Be careful!"
The townsman who fell on the ground stood up, raised his hand to remove the kitchen knife above his head, and waved it at the vampire with his back turned with a ferocious face.
