Around midnight, the wooden stakes inserted into the limbs of the 'general' had been changed several times, from being completely black at first to the dark red now. On the stone platform where the 'General' was lying, the black blood that was originally flowing down also turned a little red.
But Benjamin didn't want to enter this basement full of vampire blood. The person lying there was the 'General', not Zach, and there was no reason for Benjamin to stay here. So the person who went back and forth to replenish the blood tank became Danny. When Danny put down the blood tank this time, he brought bad news, "Four sheep are going to die. Well, I may need to go to the woods to the south to find some deer." .”
Zach pursed his bright red lips and could only nod.
Replacement is a longer-term task than keeping Ryan from crossing the line, and no one in Grande can help Zach. The reason is that the blood of the dead is fatal to vampires.
The reason why the blood of the dead is the poison of vampires is because, like fire, it spreads and replicates itself like a virus in the blood vessels of vampires, turning the blood that should have flowed to maintain immortality and have miraculous healing effects. Vampire blood cannibalizes and transforms into the blood of the dead that only waits to rot, spoil, and stink.
The souls of vampires are no longer useful. The reason why they can exist and live is their magical blood. When the magic blood is no longer magical, vampires can say goodbye to their racial pride and become a real corpse.
Just like Zack can't make a pencil or wood grow back into a tree (Madison once used this as a metaphor to ask about the limit of vampire blood's healing power), vampire blood cannot make the blood of the dead...well, 'resurrection' . Speaking of resurrection, does every platelet grow into a new person
Not only is it impossible, these things that have completely exceeded the healing power of vampire blood will be like a bottomless pit, seducing the vampire's blood and constantly swooping on it like moths**. This is a deadly vicious cycle.
And 'General' is currently going through two vicious cycles. One is the wooden stake inserted into his limbs, and the other is the blood of the deceased that is still spreading hatefully and replicating itself in his body. The only thing that can alleviate these two fatal cycles is the clean blood that Zach is instilling into the 'General'.
Well, we have all done that crazy swimming pool manager who did the math problem of letting out water and filling it in at the same time. That's the situation now. Zach is the psycho, and the stakes are for bleeding. As long as the speed of Zach's input of fresh blood is higher than the speed of the wooden pile releasing the corroded dead blood, and of course, faster than the speed of corrosion, there will always be a moment when the swimming pool of 'General' is finally filled.
Now, it's half full, and the corpse-like markings on the 'General's skin have been reduced by half compared to when he first arrived.
In order to make the 'General's' own blood flow as little as possible so that it would not be corroded too quickly by the deceased, Zach ordered the 'General' to go to sleep.
No one in Grande is willing to chat with Zach at this time in the basement, which is now full of blood. Zach, who was a little bored, began to observe a few needles brought by the 'general'.
Before the 'General' fell asleep, he said that this was the weapon used by the opponent. He immediately felt that there was something deadly smeared on it and avoided it, but in the end someone still inserted one. Before coming here, I endured the discomfort and collected a few. I planned to go back to the bar and rely on food to resist, but I couldn't resist and came anyway.
Zach feels helpless about this. He has given all the knowledge that vampires need to the 'General' through blood feeding (breastfeeding. This is Zach's act of feeding the newborn 'General' his own blood before. The blood contains information). . The danger of the blood of the dead was also conveyed very clearly. I really don't know where the 'General's fluke mentality came from. This is probably the same as when a naughty child insists on throwing firecrackers into the toilet during a certain festive holiday.
Zach looked at these needle-like things and had nothing else to say except giving harsh comments to the users. First of all, this thing is made of silver, and then it is thin enough. But it is still hollow, with aconite seeds stuffed inside (for werewolves, Volume II), and finally, the outside is smeared with the blood of the dead.
The person who uses it seems to clearly want to use this thing to deal with vampires and werewolves at the same time. Then comes the problem. Where can I find a place with vampires and werewolves? Looking at the entire federation, the answer is Grande.
"I'm sorry." Someone actually came to the basement, it was Harrison, "I didn't want to disturb you, but..." His eyes fell on the ground, which was covered with dark blood, "It's too ' It smells good, I'm hungry." You don't need to understand what the smell of ghoul means...
Zach opened his mouth. Ever since Ryan interrupted their conversation before, he had not had much time to pay attention to the newly resurrected ghoul.
First, although they were evenly matched verbally with Sibera, Sibera was really not a peaceful woman. In addition, Zach still felt a little guilty, so he basically spent the afternoon watching the four women saving Ryan. , half comforting and half circumspect. Then Benjamin came back and planned to send Wales away early. So the burden of Harrison has been ignored.
"Come in." Zach waved his hand, "Get a cup." This meant that he didn't want Harrison to lie on the ground and lick anything and ruin his clothes.
Harrison smiled, quickly touched a cup, squatted on the edge of the stone platform, and watched the blood flow from the wooden stake on the 'General' body.
It filled up quickly. Harrison put the cup to his lips and raised his head. When he lowered his head again, the corners of his dark red mouth curved into a smile, showing a feeling of satisfaction.
Of course, he is not satisfied with the blood of vampires. He has said so much before that he will not forget it so quickly. What he is satisfied with is the blood of the dead. Harrison is a ghoul.
Zach's face became unnatural.
Harrison noticed Zach's change with his peripheral vision, turned his head and wiped the dark red at the corner of his mouth, "I'm sorry, my behavior makes you uncomfortable. Although I don't remember what happened before, I still Knowing this is fatal to you vampires."
The poison that is fatal to vampires is the delicacy of ghouls. This world is really wonderful.
"It doesn't matter." Zach's face looked unnatural, not because of this, but because of regret. "I'm just sorry, he..." Zach pointed at the sleeping 'General', "I could have kept this blood, stored the process of his attack, and then passed it on to me, so I could know who did it. . But now." Zach shrugged. He glanced at the black blood on the ground and twitched his lips, "It's a waste." Zach's eyes quickly turned back to Harrison, "I don't mean you're wasting it."
"Haha, I understand, I understand." The cup in Harrison's hand returned to the wooden stake. All he can do now is not to continue to waste the blood, right? "I remember that among vampires, they are best at carrying blood. The one who received the message was Lesembra of the Sabbat, are you Toledo also good at this?"
Zach shook his head, "Torido is the team with the most balanced abilities. They are good at everything, but they are not good at it." Zach frowned, and he began to realize that his relatively objective statement was not appropriate in this situation, because we You know, Zack pretty much represents his entire clan. At times like this, it's not good to be modest.
Zach twitched his lips. "Toledo is best at the Charming Eyes, but I think this is the result of our excellent communication skills due to our upbringing and observation." Probably... it's true.
"You are too modest. I remember that the enchantment pupil is the most difficult ability for vampires to master. The human mind is complicated and it is difficult to figure out the current mood. But you Toledo can ignore the human mind. Directly manipulate the memory to complete the control of the human mind. And the control of behavior, this is very powerful. Well, it is much more powerful than Gangro's transformation, Rimel's magic, Bruch's power... all of them."
Zach raised his eyebrows and looked up at Harrison who was filled with food. "For a guy who doesn't remember his girlfriend, you remember a lot." Zach tilted his head, "It's quite comprehensive." According to Zach's style, it means 'your praise, I Suffer'.
"Ahem..." Harrison patted his chest and hastily wiped away the choked food from his mouth, "I, I feel strange too. I seem to remember all these knowledge-based things, but my own I don’t even remember the things, my experiences.”
Zach tilted his head. This was probably the same as someone who had never heard of anyone who had amnesia forgetting language.
"Well..." Harrison glanced at Zach, and the cup returned to the wooden stake, "We couldn't finish what we said in the morning."
Zach pursed his lips, and he realized that he had brought the topic to something he didn't want to face.
"They all asked me to ask you, well, for example, how did I get here..." Harrison's voice was a little floaty, "How did I die..."
"Okay." Zach thought about what he was about to say, "I don't think this topic is suitable for a detailed discussion." After all, it is death, and Zach is ready to use the most concise and summary statement to complete his guilt. To cover up the feeling, "I will say briefly - some hunters came from Barton. You were careful about yourself, and then you were too hungry and prepared to come to Grande to find food here. However, when you were heading to the cemetery, you met a man from Ge. The spawn of Gangaro that Rand left, you had a fight, that's all."
"A dependent of Gangro?" Harrison blinked and looked embarrassed, "Just a dependent? I must be very hungry..."
Zach pursed his lips, not prepared to comment on Harrison's already skewed focus.
"Uh... so I died for food..." Harrison's hand holding the cup to catch the blood shook, but he continued to take it.
There was a brief silence, just when Zach was about to think that this burden would be let go so easily...
"Why, um, would I fight with a dependent of Gangro?" Harrison looked at Zach again, with a pair of eyes seeking knowledge. Immediately, he shook his head, "I came to you for help, didn't I? He met me when he came out of Grande, right? Then why should I fight with the people who came out of Grande? I..." Harrison's whole body stiffened, and he looked at Zach with a different expression, which was weird, "Unless I'm here to steal food, are we, the enemy?"
Zach's expression was even weirder. He now had no idea how Harrison's logic worked. Has this guy forgotten that Grande resurrected him
Seeing Harrison's increasingly weird face, and his body becoming more and more tense, Zach frowned and said, "We are not enemies."
Harrison's body immediately relaxed and his expression returned to normal, "Haha, I don't think so. You said that Amelia came here to find me. If we were enemies, she wouldn't come here to die. , right." His tone was still a bit awkward.
Zach still didn't want to comment on this logic, but just hoped that the other party would stop asking any more questions. Zach at least didn't want to deal with Harrison's problem in the current state of constant blood loss.
Unfortunately, Harrison has no intention of stopping.
"But..." He looked at Zach hesitantly again, "Why does Barton have a hunter? I have to be cautious... I heard you and that Sibella mention hunters this afternoon. She seems to be a leader-like figure. Your relationship seems to be... Well, it's not bad, Ryan, his son lives here, right? Although I don't know why at all, just like I don't know why you, a vampire, can be brothers with Alpha." He pursed his lips, "I, I think, although Grande and I are not enemies, our relationship is not very good, right?"
Zach realized that Harrison's logic was very clear.
"I, probably, um, don't know what Grande is doing, and I don't know Grande's relationship with others, such as those hunters and Gangluo. I am an outsider, right, um... I probably, um, am in You lost your life in vain in some ridiculous misunderstanding, right?"
Harrison's words can be considered almost completely correct. But Zach really couldn't nod his head. The other person was a newly resurrected guy with amnesia. He didn't need to be so self-aware at all. Why bother.
Fortunately, Zach no longer had to nod. The sudden 'unexpected' incident saved the awkward atmosphere in the basement. I put it in quotation marks because those of us who have predicted certain things with our toes will not find it too surprising.
The first person to enter the basement was Danny Illusion's colorful light. The light spots were beating rapidly. "I found them in the woods. They were also hunting animals..."
Two black shadows rushed into the basement. The two bats were flapping their wings vigorously, and they were holding two other bats covered in gray-white corpses. A strange human voice came from the two bodies dangling in the air, "Please, please." Redo, save them!" The four descendants of Thomas Gangro who stayed in the villa!
Now is not the time to think about anything else.
Zach waved, "Harrison, help." Pushing the 'General' body, he made some space for Gangro, who was flipping up and down in the air. "Danny, wake up Benjamin, I need sheep." (. )
