Desire on the other side of blood

Neither Phil nor I was injured, so the blood can only be from the monster just now.

"What was that thing just now?" I asked Philip, still a little shocked.

"If I'm not mistaken, it should be a zombie." Fili pondered for a while, and said softly.

"Zombie?"

"Yes. If a human being is sucked out of all blood, it will become a zombie."

"Then how come here..."

"I think you should ask Mr. Jesse Mai about this question." Philip pinched my chin with a smile and shook his head.

I suddenly remembered something.

"I was locked in that room by Mr. Jesse Mai, and then I found a job card there, and the name on it was Odis Clayderman."

"Otis?" Felix looked surprised. "He's been dead for a while!"

It seemed that some fragmentary clues were slowly combining in my mind, I shook my head, trying to clear myself up, "I found some notches and numbers on the wall, which seemed to be used to record the date, and then there were some marks on the ground A blood-sucked rat carcass, I think..."

"Odis disappeared on March 3. We didn't know until many days later that he was burned to death by humans." Philip said loudly, "Odis is a good guy, everyone likes him very much, but before he disappeared It's like a different person, he even bit Miss Whitney!"

March 3th, that matches the number carved on the wall.In other words, Otis was locked in that room on March 13, and then he escaped after the 3th, and the person who locked him up was most likely Jesse Mai!

"Wait, Phil, I think I need to calm down." I sighed and pressed my forehead.Head hurt again.

God, what kind of conspiracy did I fall into?

Probably because my complexion was not so good, Feili looked at me carefully for a while, then squeezed my hand and stood up, "Okay, let's go. Aren't you going to help His Majesty Feilian find the magic bracelet after dawn?" Is it? It's better to go back and rest earlier."

I looked at him in astonishment, "How did you know that I was going to find the magic bracelet?" I haven't told anyone else about this, how did he know?

Probably knowing that he had slipped his tongue inadvertently, he stuck out his tongue mischievously.

"Also, how did you know I would be here?" I stared at him, trying to find some clues on his face.

"You want to know?" He tilted his head, his tone seemed a little cheerful.

I nodded.

"But I can't tell you now." He said with a smile, spreading his hands, "But I will never hurt you, do you believe me?"

I thought about it and nodded.

"That's good." He put his arms around my shoulders and kissed me, "Let's go, it's almost dawn, what you need now is to have a good rest."

After this night of tossing, I didn't close my eyes at all.I can't figure out many things, so I think it's better to ask others directly.When I left on time at nine o'clock in the morning, a carriage had already stopped at the door.

"Is this Monsieur Lambert?" said the coachman, taking off his hat as soon as he saw me.

"Yes, hello."

"Your Majesty has been waiting for you for a long time, please get in the car."

"Your Majesty?" He actually came?

"Yes, please."

After getting into the carriage, I saw His Majesty Felian inside.He was sitting there with his arms folded and his chest closed, apparently closing his eyes and resting his mind.Beside him lay a long white thing with a skull-shaped carving at the top, which looked like a walking stick.

Hearing me coming in, he opened his eyes slightly, then closed them quickly, as if he was very tired.

"You came."

"Yes, Your Majesty." It was inconvenient to salute in the carriage, but I still bent over.

"How did you sleep last night?" His voice was faint, but there was a hint of a smile at the corner of his mouth.

"Not very much." I replied honestly, "It can be said that I didn't sleep all night."

"Well. It will take a long time to get to London, you can take a rest on the way." He reached out and patted the side beside him.

"I think so, thank you, Your Majesty." I glanced at the seat next to him, and sat down on the seat opposite him.

I heard him laugh lowly, and the atmosphere was a little awkward.Coughing uncomfortably, I reached out and opened the curtains.

The carriage was passing Flag Hall at this time, and from a distance, the white pointed building was hidden under the shadow of the clouds, and the sharp roof seemed to be piercing the sky with sharp claws.

All the windows reflect a thin layer of white light.When my gaze stayed on the window of a room on the second floor, I vaguely saw a pair of red eyes flashing past there.

The body stiffened instinctively.those eyes...

"What are you looking at?" His Majesty Fei Lian noticed my unnaturalness and asked aloud.

"Uh, it's nothing." I put down the curtains, smiled at him, and sat down in a comfortable position.

He hummed lightly, and stopped talking again.

After a long silence, I still couldn't help asking: "Your Majesty, I want to know why the search for the magic bracelet came to me? If it's because of this ring, I think I can give it to anyone." , don't need me..."

Before he finished speaking, he coldly interrupted, "No, only you can."

"Why? I'm just an ordinary clerk, and I'm useless at all." I still couldn't understand.What's more, I'm not from this world.

He suddenly opened his eyes, and stared at me closely with those blue eyes, "Don't you realize that some kind of change is happening in your body?"

"I……"

"The ring on your hand is a soul ring, one of the thirteen holy artifacts. It can trigger people's evil desires, and at the same time, it can also cause certain changes in the blood. Your body is gradually changing, Mr. Lambert. Even if you will now If you lose your soul ring, your body will mutate at a faster rate, and you have no way out now."

His whole body was bitingly cold as if suddenly plunged into an ice cellar.Taking the ring off and holding it in my hand, I resisted the urge to just throw it out the window.

I took a deep breath and tried to make my voice sound calmer, "Then what will happen if my body changes gradually?"

"It's nothing, at most it will become a monster that only knows how to suck blood." There was a hint of disapproval in his voice.

Those blood-red eyes flashed through his mind.Such a monster...

"You can only cooperate with me now. After I find the magic bracelet, I have a way to restore you to normal. Before that, you'd better be obedient, Mr. Lambert." He looked at me for a while, then There was some pity in the eyes, as if looking at a small experimental mouse in a cage.

"Okay... ok..." Other than that, I really have no choice.I lowered my head in frustration, looking at my open palm.

In the palm of his hand, the golden ring was emitting a strange light.Several scars cut by sharp nails did not heal quickly, and the blood that flowed out had turned black.
