At noon in the middle of summer, Zach could no longer safely control the steering wheel in his car. It's a joke if a vampire drives into a car accident. Zack returned to Grande despite Thomas, who was also depressed but still insisted on continuing the search.
"If you insist, please feel free." Zach jumped out of the car and said to the trunk. He walked quickly to the shadow of the back porch with his hat on his head. Not wanting to waste any time, he opened the back door and walked directly to the basement. Vampires need replenishing.
Operating under the sun is an advance reward for leaving the hometown of the Thirteen Vampire Clan and traveling across the ocean to expand territory, but like any other vampire ability, what drives this privilege is the blood that vampires rely on to survive.
The longer you stay in the sun, the greater the consumption required.
Zach walked down the stairs, his nose twitching slightly, and Benjamin was actually in the basement.
Pushing open the basement door, Benjamin held a bat in one hand and poked it into the bucket filled with red liquid, swiping it back and forth.
"Gangaro is not a toy." Zach sighed, took the wine glass and raised his head.
Benjamin let go of the two guys in his hands, fluttered his thin black and gray wings, shook away the blood beads, and ran around in the basement in panic. Zach shook his head and pointed upward. The two bats flew up and down and rushed out of the basement, probably to cry to his father.
Benjamin casually took a rag and wiped off the blood on his hands. He looked at the guys still hanging in the two corners of the ceiling and reached out to grab...
"Benjamin." Zach shouted helplessly, before Alpha took down two creatures that were as stiff as corpses, rubbed them, and woke them up, "Go find Thomas."
The two guys spread their wings stiffly. After falling from the air several times, he managed to fly up and leave the basement. As I said before, sleeping vampires are very fragile. They are so fragile that even if they are in the same room with their natural enemies and their brothers are being played by an Alpha, they won't notice.
Benjamin pouted. He clapped his hands and sat on Zach's stone platform, seeming to complain that Zach interrupted his entertainment, "I won't hurt them."
"You're hurt." Zach tugged at the corner of his mouth, "Their self-esteem."
Benjamin actually smiled, looked at Zach, and asked without hesitation, "Is it a vampire's self-esteem, or is it just Gangelo's self-esteem?"
Our vampire Zach tilted his head, looked at Benjamin, and said seriously. "Both."
Benjamin raised his eyebrows in satisfaction, then waved his hand, as if to comfort Zach, "It's not that serious, they should be proud." Benjamin took a deep breath and twitched the corner of his mouth, "In their form, I am completely Can’t sense their vampire aura.”
Just finished. Benjamin raised his eyebrows, "I feel it."
The sound of sharp claws scratching on the wooden stairs was heard. The wolf, which had grown to the height of half a man, crashed into the basement. With a low roar, a pair of red eyes stared at Alpha.
The complained father came to avenge his child.
Benjamin didn't even use the Alpha skin and looked at Thomas with a smile. Zach understood that Benjamin was not 'playing' with Gangaro, but conducting an experiment. To irritate them, test how to sense Gangro.
I asked Thomas, um, Thomas Gangro. It's a stupid question, why can he transform into an animal. Zach can't.
After paying him with some twenty pigeons stolen from Lister Square, he gave me this answer.
"These pigeons, domesticated, taste like wild boar bile! I don't like you, human, stay away from me."
I think I will never know why. I can only tell you that Gangaro's ability to transform into animal form is the only guarantee for vampires with bad personalities like them to survive in the wild. As long as they don't deliberately expose themselves, even Alpha won't be able to detect them.
"Okay Thomas!" Zach frowned and kicked a bucket of blood. The red liquid swayed in the bucket, causing the bucket to rub against the ground slightly in front of the wolf-shaped vampire. "I thought you were looking forward to it. Meet Alpha. Is this what you expected?"
Thomas's grinned lips twitched, and the redness in his eyes swept across Alpha's body before finally fading away. From last night to now, he and Zach have been busy with 12, and indeed they haven't had a good communication with Alpha yet. The current behavior in anger is indeed contrary to the original intention.
Benjamin raised his eyebrows and looked at Thomas who retracted his body, "I can't feel it again."
Zach slapped Benjamin, "Stop looking for trouble! Don't you have anything else to do? How is Matthew?"
Benjamin shrugged, his eyes still on Thomas. Judging from his appearance, he seemed to have the tendency to go up and touch him...
Try to put yourself in Benjamin's shoes. Putting aside the bloody history of vampires and werewolves, the werewolf's form comes from the creature in front of you. The two parties have clearly expressed their friendship, and with Zach as Toledo who can mediate in the middle, Benjamin has enough reasons to explore the origin of his race...
Well, the real reason is that as Alpha, Benjamin wants to test out where Gangro's limit is, and then pass this limit as knowledge to the descendant he really cares about, the wolf cub Matthew.
Benjamin and Zach are friends, but that doesn't mean that all vampire and werewolf groups have peacefully coexisted since then. The world is still very dangerous, and Alpha is trying to gain as much knowledge as possible.
"It's okay." Benjamin curled his lips and looked at Zach who knew him very well and held his hand, "What about you? Did you find anything?"
The speaker was Thomas, whose head was still buried in the bucket of blood. Don't ask where its vocal organs were. "No, nothing was found. He is dead." Thomas' tone meant giving up.
Zach frowned. He also came to the same conclusion. After exploring the farmers and houses in the South District along the road, they did not detect any vampire aura. People in the South District also tried not to go out, and they were no different from usual times. .
To be on the safe side, Zach went to Wes to find out if there was any news about anyone missing or dying. In the end, there was nothing. Instead, they learned that a few more escaped convicts had been found. The detailed process of escaping from prison had been revealed by the police bit by bit from the captured people.
Benjamin was silent for a while, saying that he had a crush on 12 was too far-fetched, but after all, he had met her once. Although he was inevitably nervous in front of Alpha, judging from the conversation between him and Zach, he was, or had been, a somewhat interesting person.
Benjamin felt in his pants pocket and pulled out a note, "This might help."
Zach took it, and Louise's handwriting was just a license plate.
"Louise thinks it may be related to 12, so she asked Anthony to check it out. The owner of the car is Amelia Browning."
Zach remembered something, "Where's Louise?" When he came back, he felt Louise's breath.
"It turns out that the nuns from the Church of the Holy Child are back, and she went to see them." Benjamin answered.
Remember, the last time Zach went to Constantine, Constantine was choosing who Crowley wanted to work at the Church of the Holy Child. It seemed that the priest was still nostalgic and wanted to go back to the old ministry.
Zach nodded, showed the paper with the license plate to Thomas who raised his head, and continued to ask, "Who is Amelia?"
Benjamin shrugged, "I don't know. Not long after you left, this woman came to Grande. She took out the old Grande business card that we gave to other aliens before, and said she wanted to find us."
Zach raised an eyebrow, "Where is she?"
Zach had a premonition, no, it wasn’t a premonition, the premonition wouldn’t be that strong!
The dependents of vampires are absolutely loyal, so 12 must have encountered some accident when he left Grande and returned!
And this accident, with Rita's reminder, made Zach understand that it was his own negligence that he didn't realize was the result - a certain alien met 12, and fulfilled the agreement with Grande.
Last night, Anthony was asked to inform. Zach believed in Anthony's ability to act, and also believed that Anthony could understand that the matter involved Zach's unexplained expectations for Gangaro, and Anthony would definitely do this as quickly as possible.
Then the alien race will definitely take action after realizing that they have 'done something wrong'! Escape from Barton? This choice seems unlikely. Barton is an ideal land, and even hunters admit it! Then apologizing and asking for forgiveness is the only option!
Don't worry about Zach's arrogance, Grande has the qualifications.
Benjamin twitched his lips and said, "I was driven away by Old Hank."
Zach was stunned for a moment, then pursed his lips and said, "He did the right thing." Other than saying that, Zach really couldn't think of anything else to say to accuse Old Hank.
Shaking his head, Zach held a note with the license plate written on it. Not sure what he was thinking about, he asked absently, "Do you have an address?"
Benjamin held the note with two fingers, took it out of Zach's hand, turned it over, and inserted it back into Zach's hand. It was still Louise's handwriting, and there was a row of addresses written in the residential area of Noel Beach. It was a wealthy woman.
Then the basement fell silent.
Zach looked at Thomas. After everyone began to accept that 12 was dead, after letting go of the incident that temporarily caused the two vampires to work together to search! How things will go after this, Zach needs to know at this time whether Thomas will avenge 12!
This is serious, let's overthrow Zach's arrogance and think about this objectively.
The problems caused by Zach's negligence are Zach's fault. The aliens who fulfilled the agreement with Grande did not do anything wrong. On the contrary, they also showed enough loyalty to Grande. Is Grande to blame for this loyalty? No, it should be repayment and maintenance!
So, what about Thomas? Does he want to 'repay and protect' the alien who killed his only family member
It's almost time. Ganggro, who likes to show off in the form of a wolf, should also react. Either he will take revenge on the innocent alien race who is the most direct, and confront Grande! Either he takes revenge on the ultimate source of revenge - the negligent Grande vampire Zack, and needless to say, turns against Grande!
"Just family members." Thomas tilted his head. (..)
