He held the silver cross more tightly, opened his mouth, and was about to say something, when the light brain suddenly sounded. Arecio glanced at the sender, it was Augustus who was in charge of guarding the childcare center. Augustus sent him a message, which should be business.
The splendid embers of the fireworks slowly dissipated in the night sky at this time, but the pupils of the saint who watched him were warm. Arecio clenched the silver cross, and he made up his mind to talk to the neuropathy when he returned. .
"Augustus sent a message and wanted to invite us over there."
The saint nodded without any objection. The carnival has passed, and he will not take revenge on Augustus for this... There is a ghost!
Arecio clung to the silver cross all the way, which filled him with courage. Carnival Square is very close to the conservation center, and they arrived at the center quickly. Unlike the jubilant scene outside, there are many guards in the center in a hurry to carry out the final investigation.
This is the record of those children, and Arecio must praise it.
"His Royal Highness Arecio, Mr. Ruzius." Augustus of the Celestial Clan with wings on his back came up to greet him. After a brief greeting, he asked with a smile, "How was the carnival?"
Arecio subconsciously glanced at the saint beside him, and the other side actually puffed out one cheek slightly, and a small bulge was pushed up on the tip of his tongue, imitating Arecio who was dealing with the silver cross just now, vividly.
Arecio: "… "
He looked at Augustus and said.
"Except for the dog, not bad."
"???"
Augustus hadn't figured out why the carnival had anything to do with dogs, and Arecio had moved the conversation away.
"What's the matter? It was not stated in the communication just now that the intruder has been caught?"
Augustus also became serious and nodded slightly.
"It has been confirmed that there is a problem with the personnel of the southeast branch, and they are all under control now. Unfortunately, a few committed suicide in fear of crime, which has caused us to lose some clues. The rest have been interrogated, but one of them..." Augustus shook He shook his head, obviously that person was very troublesome, "He should know the most, but he declares that he must meet you before revealing it."
Arecio nodded nonchalantly, he had actually guessed a little bit about the situation of that person.
It must be manipulated by Theo.
He clenched the silver cross and walked into the temporary holding room, his eyes were very calm from beginning to end. Ten thousand years later, the interrogation measures have been improved, mainly on the spiritual level, so this holding room is very similar to the one where Zhu Heng once stayed. Some instruments are scattered in the distance, and the whole room looks very empty.
The man who was firmly tied to the fixed seat heard the sound of the door opening and slowly raised his head, revealing a mysterious smile.
"You are finally here, my child."
Arecio was expressionless, he sat down on the chair in front of the fixed seat, and looked at the man in front of him with all his leisure. Through the ordinary appearance of the other party, he vaguely saw the father of the handsome but cruel blood clan.
He fiddled with the silver cross and opened his mouth casually.
"I'm already here, I'll tell you something."
Such a rude attitude naturally could not satisfy Theo, his smile restrained, and a gloomy look appeared in his eyes.
"I gave this man a spiritual suggestion," he said softly. "As long as he doesn't see you, as long as he doesn't tell you what he should say, he will never reveal what you want to know."
Arecio is hanging the silver cross in front of his eyes for details. He likes these small and delicate roses very much. There is nothing to say about the neurotic handicraft. After appreciating, he just blinked as if he had just heard Theo speak.
"Let's force some more, what do you want to say to me?"
"..." Theo endured and held back his breath, thinking of what he was going to say, and smiled.
"Do you want to be with your little friend?"
Just as Arecio knew Theo, Theo also knew Arecio. He knew that with Arecio's character, he would never speak out such emotionally related words. Maybe the heart is more fiery than anyone else, but the mouth will not give an inch, this is Arecio.
but…
"Think." Arecio replied seriously, and he couldn't help laughing under Theo's puzzled eyes.
"I want to be with him, past, present, and forever."
His deep rosy red pupils were bright at this time, and that brilliance would only be revealed naturally when he was deeply in love. He looked at Theo's almost cracked expression, and being able to stimulate Theo would undoubtedly make him more happy.
"What? Think I can't say it? How is it possible." He hid the silver cross in his palm, showing the tip of his fangs, "In front of him, you can't say it because you're shy, and you're not him."
Theo's expression was very strange at this time. He fixedly looked at Arecio, as if he had lost the ability to speak for a while.
"you love him?"
"Yes."
"It's impossible! It shouldn't be! He's just your playmate raised by a temple!"
"No, he is my destiny."
The man controlled by Theo showed a terrifying expression. He struggled on the fixed seat, and the blue veins on the side of his neck burst out.
"Great vampires shouldn't fall in love with humans, you..." He suddenly freed himself from that hideous posture, the strange smile returned to his face, and he gradually relaxed his body again calmly.
"It's okay... it's okay..." he said softly, looking straight at his child, "then what I'm going to say next, you must be quite interested."
"Have you ever thought about... lifespan?"
Arecio felt that there seemed to be a cold trap in this question, he hesitated for a moment, and then regained his determination.
"I will give him the first embrace." After a pause, he added again, "He also agreed to accept the first embrace, before he died."
"Ha...hahahaha!" Theo laughed, his laughter echoed in the empty room, almost to tears.
"First embrace?" he repeated. "First embrace? Hahaha! Accepting first embrace before death? Hahahaha!"
He smiled like a madman, and the depression after hearing about the relationship at first disappeared, leaving only some kind of pity.
"He lied to you."
Arecio's pupils shrank, and for a moment, he wanted to stop Theo from continuing to speak, but Theo preemptively said:
"The hunters of the temple cannot accept the first embrace."
- A dead silence spreads.
"This is... what I want to tell you, my child." Theo was satisfied, "Humans are accustomed to deceit, have you ever thought about walking to the end of each other's life with such a lie, wanting to transform but finding it impossible to transform, I can only watch the other party die in…”
"… To shut up."
Arecio took a deep breath in order to suppress the killing intent surging in his heart. Theo didn't say any more, but the disgusting smile still hung on his face. He let Arecio think for a while, letting the despair ferment more violently, and then slowly spoke.
"My child, admit it, he lied to you, and no human being can be trusted."
"In this world, the closest people are us."
He used his own domain, and now Arecio's heart defense is undoubtedly the most vulnerable time, maybe he can try to plant a seed in the opponent's spirit. Of course he hated Arecio, hated that he had killed himself, but he had to be tender first, as long as Arecio gave him his first embrace, then Arecio's mission was over.
The field spread, and the saint outside the door seemed to notice something and frowned slightly. His hand has been placed on the scanning port, ready to go in at any time.
"… So what?"
Inside the door, Theo's domain was blocked by the middle way. Theo couldn't hide his astonishment and looked at his child, the deep rosy red pupil was faintly watery, but the owner of the red pupil still spoke firmly.
"It doesn't matter if I die, since I knew him, my life has been as long as his."
hard to understand... hard to understand...
"Are you going to die with him? You are the last vampire! The vampire of immortality!"
The familiar dialogue reminded Arecio of the dragon, the last dragon, the princess who fell in love with humans, but was never confused. He shook the silver cross and completely understood the dragon's mood.
"So what?"
"Varied… "
"It's okay, isn't it?" Arecio smiled. He didn't plan to continue with Theo. Anyway, the man who was manipulated said what he wanted to say, and if he interrogated again, he should be able to ask something. He got up and turned to leave.
The invisible domain began to spread, Theo accelerated the process, and the domain went straight behind Arecio! Alessio seemed to feel something, but when he turned around, he saw that the man who was being manipulated just fell into the chair limply, and Theo's spirit disappeared.
Although he was suspicious, Arecio didn't think much and walked out of the room.
In the depths of the temple, the roses in full bloom swayed in the night, and the person standing at the window seemed to be closing his eyes, but suddenly spit out a mouthful of blood. Theo felt that part of his domain seemed to have disappeared. This discovery shocked him. He hurriedly confirmed the situation in the domain. The missing corner seemed to be a thorn in his finger for no reason. He couldn't think of the reason.
how come…
Unintentionally, he looked up and saw himself in the mirror. His eyes widened, and he raised his hand tremblingly, stroking near the corner of his mouth—
There are some wrinkles there.
With a "crash", he smashed the mirror, gasping for breath. Thousands of fragments of the mirror were scattered on the ground, and each fragment reflected his old-fashioned face, making his rage and fear reach the peak in an instant!
Why... what did he do to be attacked by time magic? Even more frightening is that the attack worked! It also worked for him, the God-Blessed One!
Aging began to creep in, and Theo felt like he was dying, something he had never experienced before. He wanted to struggle, but he couldn't. He smashed everything in the room that could be shattered, and finally fell to the ground, wriggling humblely like a worm.
He is dying! He is dying! He is dying!
He had never been so clearly aware that he was about to die. Theo struggled, but his outstretched hand had gradually loosened. Just when he thought he was really going to die here, an obscure force descended on his body.
Theo was familiar with this power. For the first time, this power had given him divine support, and now, this power had saved his life.
[idiot.]The existence that gave him the power rebuked, [What did you do? Rescuing you will only increase my chances of being exposed!]
What did he do... Theo thought slowly, and finally, he remembered.
He attacked Arecio with the domain.
In the nursery center, Arecio came out of the room and glanced at the saint. He turned his head in the opposite direction, his gaze was gentle.
"It's Theo? What did he say?"
"Some nonsense, I want me to give him a first hug." Arecio didn't say the real conversation, he just looked at the saint walking beside him, a little lost. But soon, he adjusted himself and quickly followed the opponent.
"Want to eat crayfish."
"Buy, do you order or I order? How many pounds?"
When they were talking like this, Ruzius, who had already opened the optical brain interface to order a late night snack, heard the voice in the void again. His memory had not recovered before, but now he knew that the voice belonged to Hitomi, and belonged to Xizhi, and Xizhi gave him the support of his gods to cooperate with him, and he could naturally hear Xizhi's voice.
The voice brought great news—
[I have seen it.]
[Detected the violation of the God of Slander, twice.]
[The remaining number of times to reach a ruling, one.]
