Geeky

44 minutes.

Su tried to wait a full 44 minutes. If this is part of a prank, it is really naive.

He followed a blood servant with a familiar face through the corridors in the room, and came to the hall that seemed to be located directly behind the villa.

This is a milky-white hall paved with dark red marble. The walls are decorated with golden Roman columns that protrude halfway. There are also built-in niches between the Roman columns, and white statues with different postures are placed inside. .

The door with the same color as the floor has been opened to the night, and there are already more than a dozen blood races standing on the ground near the door.

"Welcome, human."

At the head was none other than Balaam-Sisera, who still looked the same.

"You came just in time, we are going to play a game."

The vampires standing beside Balan stared at Su Shi with bloodthirsty eyes.

"In the blood family, there is a very traditional game," Balan continued, "put the 'prey' in the field, and the 'hunters' will snatch it. This is the 'hunting' of our blood family."

Balaam turned to those noble relatives and said:

"Let me first explain the rules of the game: Whoever 'bites' the prey first and leaves teeth marks wins.

Let me add two more things: if there is no winner within the specified time, or if the prey gets the silver cross in the forest, the prey wins. "

He turned back to look at Su Shi again: "Do you have any questions?"

A game of cat and mouse, Su Shi thought to himself, now he is asked to play the mouse?

He smiled slightly, lowered his head and shook.

The arch of his eyebrows was raised slightly, but the tip of his eyebrows drooped, as if he was mixed with sorrow and joy.

Balan moved his toes forward half an inch, but then he came to his senses, turned around and disappeared into the hall in an instant.Those noble youths followed him and disappeared outside the gate one by one.

"...the cross is hung on the tree trunk, and it will be easy to see when you find that tree, because there is a lamp on it." A housekeeper held a lamp ball and led Su Shi to the dark forest behind the villa. "Masters and ladies must have ambushed, you can freely choose to enter from a certain path. Don't worry, it won't be too long, the music starts, the 'hunting' starts, the music ends, the 'hunting' ends, when you You can stay and have 'lunch' with us."

A man-made forest appeared in front of Su Shi's eyes. They must have been planted for many years. Every tree has such thick branches and dense leaves, forming a dense black patch in the night.But there are not many weeds on the woodland, the scattered shrubs are more like horticultural embellishments, and more are covered with layers of fallen leaves like velvet. There are no man-made paths, but there are a few silver ladders that circle around the tree trunks to Extended in the woods.

"Maybe you need this."

The butler raised the ball lamp in his hand, and the silver thread wrapped the crystal ball, and the rose-colored light overflowed from the silver hollow space.Above the ball is a silver chain connected to a silver ring.The silver ring can be fastened to any part of the silver chain, so that the lantern ball can be hung on the arm or anywhere else.

"Thank you."

Although Su Jianye's eyesight was very good, he did not refuse.

"You can enter now. If you want to find the cross, please try to go as far as possible in the middle of the woods...by the creek."

"Ok."

Su Shi carried the ball light into the dark forest, and the rose-colored light floated in the forest, which did not bring warmth to the place, but made the dense forest even more gloomy, adding a fragile and tense atmosphere.

The leaves creaked under his feet, and the wind blew up, shaking the leaves above his head and those under his feet.From time to time the shattered moon was obscured by clouds, and the shadows cast by leaves and branches were as thick as black mist.

From a height, a black shadow threw a silver ball.

The white ball flew over the woods, hovered, and shot smaller white balls in four directions.The miniature white balls flew across the large branches and leaves, and finally stopped, keeping an equal distance from each other.

Then, the prelude to the song was played from these spherical speakers.

The flapping of the wings of a few flying birds sounded from a distance, and the ethereal humming sound fell from the sky, like rain falling into the forest.

Su Shi raised his head, but did not find any broadcasting device from the tree trunk.

After going deep into the forest, he has gradually lost his sense of direction.He took two steps to the left, stopped, and looked to the right with some hesitation.A gust of wind blew through the trees, and the leaves began to roll underfoot.

At his feet, a large leaf slid and was blown up by the wind.

The vacant leaves gradually formed the shape of a coffin lid.

A pale hand slowly protruded from the coffin buried in the soil, swimming silently like a white snake, the cold fingertips scratched the surface of the leather shoe, and slid towards the ankle...

"Ahhh——~~~!"

A series of tragic calls broke the silence, like a frightened bird soaring straight into the sky!At the same time, it opened the prelude to this show staged in the dark night.

That pale hand was twitching and spreading its five fingers, each finger was dancing tensely, like a spider's foot in the air.The pale wrist was firmly stuck between the coffin lid and the coffin, and the coffin board had already been stomped by Su Shi.

The melodious and ethereal singing is like an invisible net, thrown around the head, capturing the silence of the forest.

Wordless Song suddenly moved towards high altitude, a gust of violent wind swept across, and a leaf was blown up like a wild butterfly, rushing towards the face, turbulent.

That's not the wind.

It is someone running in the forest, as quick as thinking, bringing a strong wind.

Behind is also the clamor of fallen leaves.

More than one person.

They were already crossing over his head, and the dead leaves they brought up were falling like rain.

Fall all over his body.

The high speed brings strong inertia, which makes a riding boot that creates resistance slide backwards on the carpet of fallen leaves after stopping to scoop up leaf waves.The other kicked directly on the trunk, causing the branches and leaves to shake violently.

This is the difference between fast and slow.

The latter seized the opportunity to pounce on Su Shi.

Knee strikes, elbow strikes, the ghostly figure in the secluded forest slammed into the ground under the impact of the force from the back, and smashed on the coffin full of fallen leaves. "Crack!" This was the sound of the coffin closing.The blood race who had just lifted the coffin lid hit his head on the coffin board, and was pressed back to lie down again. At the same time, his fingers were caught between the coffin board and the coffin...

His angry screams were mixed with sobs.

Su Shi had disappeared in place, and the surrounding trees trembled one after another, and the fallen leaves rustled, as if the trees were alive, trembling and crying.

Another tree trembled like this.

——A black shadow flew across the air, and finally landed on the tree trunk.

He didn't seem to be crouching on the tree trunk, but got up from a small bridge made of felled trees, and rushed forward.Like a huge black bat, it pounced on Su Shi on the woodland.

The eyes turned predator red, bloodthirsty red.

An ominous dark red light occasionally flashed in the darkness.

Sharp claws, long canine teeth.

Su tried to slide his feet, and the fallen leaves made a crisp sound of life under his feet.

That nimble and pitch-black figure quickly covered him, and suddenly started to fly upwards like a kite hit by a fountain.

The pale hands kept trying to catch the flying branches to cushion the kicked body.

"Pa, pa, pa la—" a series of crushing sounds, the torn branches drooped, drooped, and fell.The last branch was pulled until deformed, like a withered hand, pulling back the pale hand, the black figure seemed to stand upside down on the branch, and after swinging half a circle, turned over and crouched on the branch superior.

The moonlight falling on the woodland through the gaps in the leaves grew brighter.

But in the three-foot-high forest, more darkness lurks.

Balan stood on a thick branch, looking down at the "hunting ground" below. The butler Freeman stood gracefully on one side, holding a wine tray with a crystal bottle of red wine on it.

Freeman said softly:

"Mr. Human's skill is extraordinary. It reminds me of the ancient times when the 'vampire hunter' was once glorious... Do you need me to investigate his origin, Lord Sisera?"

Balan shook the wine glass lightly to wake up the aroma of the fine wine, and sipped the scarlet slurry in the glass.

The blood of the grapes slowly ferments,

Like death in a cup of sleep.

survey?

Family, identity, occupation, past, blood type, disease...and then?Can you detect the whispers of fireworks blooming in the sky?Can you investigate the composition of that tear that gushes from your heart?Can you find out what's going on behind those smiles?

"No need, Freeman."

Balaam's eyes penetrated the night, and when he stared, he could clearly see every vein of the dead leaves in the moonlight, "I can see clearly."

And he wants to see him more clearly than that.

Of course I'm not worried that your eyes will be blinded, Freeman thought, I'm just worried that you'll see too much.He sighed, but out of the butler's etiquette, he didn't make any sound.

Rose-colored bulbs are almost overwhelmed by fallen leaves.

The shadow raised its head, smelling the wind.

However, the sense of smell of the blood race does not have an outstanding species talent in identifying smells.For the identification of blood gas, it depends not so much on the keen sense of smell, but on sensitivity.This sensitivity makes them easily agitated by it, causing them all kinds of memories... It's not that the real smell directly stimulates the brain.

But he, they know where the silver cross is, will he go there?

clap clap clap...

The sound of dense footsteps fell on the silver ladder like a shower.

Two silver ladders extend upwards in an S-shape, like two silver ribbons winding and undulating among the trees, intersecting up and down somewhere.

Su tried to sprint on one of the ladders.

His speed doesn't seem to be fast, but it seems to be very fast.

"嗙嗙嗙嗙嗙嗙旙嗙嗙——"

Another figure ran wildly across the fence like a dog, chasing him.

Like a gust of black wind, it blew across the side of another silver ladder.

They left tree after tree like phantoms behind them.

Seen from above, the two silver ladders begin to intertwine like an X...

Su Shi, who was still rushing forward, suddenly turned around without warning, and kicked towards the guardrail on one side. "Bang!" The ladder trembled violently, and the guardrail shook with high frequency along with the black shadow that flew over.

Still, he hangs over the guardrail like a bat fastened to a branch.The pale hand precisely passed through the gap of the guardrail and grabbed Su Shi's foot.

Su Shi lost his balance and hit the guardrail on the other side with his lower back.

The black figure, like a vigorous black panther, quickly climbed up the guardrail and rushed towards him——

boom!

The bodies of the two men hit the ground, rolling with the sound of falling leaves.

The silver light flashed like ripples in water.

The blade slid across Su Shi's cheek, and a dagger was inserted into the ground, with the blade facing his side face.

The two of them stuck together up and down.

Su Shi grabbed his skirt with both hands, while the young blood clan looked down at him with the handle of the knife in his hand.

A trace of blood oozes from Su Shi's cheek, like fresh and moist fruit, sweet juice seeps out from the cracks in the peel.

As long as he is the first to leave teeth marks on the necks of humans, he, Tudor Sisera, will be the winner of this game.He could get Balaam to buy him a sea jet, something fast as a rocket that could shoot / across the Canary Ocean in an hour.

But he stuck out his tongue and licked the wound on the man's face in a mysterious way. His wet and slightly cool tongue walked and walked between the soft and warm human skin and the cold and sharp blade, like a soft leech, licking the wound from the wound. absorb nutrients.

If one can understand the drunken ecstasy of an alcoholic, then perhaps one can appreciate the frenzy brought by healthy and pure human blood through the taste buds.

He is too young and lacks restraint.

The sharp claws are as long as hooks, the fangs are growing, and the lips are shrinking...greedy red light is shining in the eyes.A hollow grunt came from the Kindred's throat, calling for blood.

Su tried to think of Sergey Knyazev, the human prank master, who designed a castle party for a certain blood noble, and staged a carnival where the chainsaw massacre chased and killed the guests. After the chaos, a human female singer was found dead. in the bathtub.

As far as Su Shi knew, after changing the name of the company, Sergei was still serving the nobles—sometimes pleasing the vampires with human fright, and sometimes designing designs for the nobles to frighten their friends—and the murderer is still unknown.

...is that what they are for?

The Blood Race slammed down——

Su Shi's hands tightly grabbed his neck.

After being bitten by a vampire, his whole body would be paralyzed, so would the other party bite through his carotid artery first, or would he use a dagger to penetrate first...

"Hey—!"

The violent explosion sound interrupted Su Shi's thoughts.

The red wine glass that hit the tree trunk was like a small firework, and the fragments exploded.

Su Shi saw Balan standing on the silver ladder not far away, looking down here.

Did he miss it?

Tudor Sisera woke up, and his emotions fell into a new violence.

He followed Su Shi and turned his face, the left side of his face was covered with crystal shards, streams of blood dripped from his pale cheeks.A diamond-shaped shard lodged in his eyeball, and he couldn't put his hand over it, or even blink.

The vampire's healing powers didn't help him expel the crystal shards embedded in the wound.

"Balam!" he growled angrily.

"be utterly shameless,"

Balaam's voice fell like silk in the night sky, "Get out."
