Blood Contract: 血色契约: Xue Se Qi Yue
Blood Contract, Chapter 116: The Blood Emperor Intrusion
As the sky dawned, Zero wrapped himself in his cloak and looked at the sun that was gradually rising to the horizon.
He's making a bet that the bet is...
Zero glanced at his so-called teammates beside him, who had been gone a long time and were presumably tired. Ahead, you're about to enter the Sangyang Island territory. There was a small desert town there, and Zero had lived with Ai-Sha for a while. They were prepared to rest only when they reached this town.
"So tired." Lacey, the petulant lady, said she was said to have been baptized by the church and would be healed by the light.
Maybe it's the stance, one is the vampire and a saint, and Zero is very uncomfortable with this girl. Hearing her twitter a bunch of whining words, Zero was tempted to kill her and keep her mouth shut forever.
"Sister, can I carry you?" The half-pound boy said. He does love his sister.
The sun shone down on Zero's body, making his body feel vaguely tingling, but the pain was much less than expected. Perhaps it was also one of the manifestations of the power of the xenophobia that was too prevalent that he wasn't very afraid of the sun.
Once again, this small town is a place where people have changed.
As they walked down the street, not only did they not see anyone, they heard footsteps and the windows of the houses down the street creaked shut.
It's become a dead city!
"This is war cruelty!" Darcy said, a grim expression on his face. Silence spread through the group. The cruelty of war is not to be denied or taken lightly by anyone. Even Miss Jiao, who had been shouting tiredly, had a dense vapor in her eyes.
"Ah--no, please, our whole family depends on finding some rations, please, don't take it away!" The cries of a woman, and the silence of the street, were all the more clear and piercing.
Darcy led the way and ran out the door, and the others followed suit.
Zero laughed coldly, such a thing, he had seen too much of it in the original world. These people are very lenient, aren't they in a hurry to save the whole country?
But he followed suit anyway.
The two big men we saw in the past robbed a woman of her grain again, a small child as dirty and miserable as black charcoal hugged the woman's thigh, the child was yellow-faced and lean, with only a handful of bones and a pair of bright eyes full of fear and hunger.
The woman fell to her knees and pleaded bitterly, clutching her pockets of grain so deadly she wouldn't let go. Instead of sympathizing with the woman, the two men punched and kicked her.
The man was so vicious that he kicked the woman in the stomach, and the woman blanched in pain, but was so reluctant to let go for the sake of what little food was left for both mother and son.
"Stop it! You guys are so uncharacteristic, two big men robbing a woman of grain." Darcy huffed, the stiffness that had appeared on his face contrasting with the embarrassment he had when he faced Zero in the beginning, as if it were two people. His expression let it be known that he hated such behavior very much.
The two men were also so hungry that they had no choice but to grab food, and who could do this if not for survival, but man is capable of anything when he is hungry to the extreme.
The two men saw someone acting like a good man, immediately pulled out the short dagger inserted in the waist, threatening: "Get out of the way, I'm hungry, human flesh also edible!" Saying that the two charged towards Darcy.
The others didn't look like they were going to help, and indeed, if the man who was going to the Rogga Island couldn't manage to fight even two men, he didn't have to go, and it would be a dead-end if he did.
I wonder if Darcy had overestimated those two men, or if they had no strength at all after being hungry for a long time, and the dagger in their hands flew straight out after being gently propped up. The dagger that flew out went right at the girl named Lacey, Lacey cried out in surprise, his brother gave her a quick shove, but the force was too much for Lacey to fall on Zero, who was beside her.
Just then, a figure flashed by, quickly making it impossible for them to see who was coming, and Lacey had fallen into the man's arms.
Lacey looked up in shock at the man who was helping her, but the look stunned him, well... handsome man! Exquisite angularity, cold temperament, and a pair of sharp, unstoppable eyes!
Lacey felt her heart thump so hard! She hadn't seen a more handsome and perfect man than this one in front of her!
Instead, the man's eagle eyes did not rest on him, but looked coldly at Zero.
Zero frowned and skimmed his head.
"Lacey, are you okay?" Aki eagerly helped Lacey check to see if she was hurt, and the latter impatiently pushed him away and looked at the man who had saved her with a flowery expression, "Thanks... thanks for saving me."
The man didn't answer him, but looked at Zero very coldly, the fiery sight seeming to melt Zero away.
Darcy fought off the two men and gave the woman some more money, then turned back to the man who had saved Lacey and said, "Hello, I'm Darcy, thank you for helping my team."
The man swept him coldly, and with just one glance Darcy took a big step backwards, and had it not been for the man behind him even against him, he would have fallen to the ground in terror.
What a sharp eye! As if it could kill someone with a single glance.
The man had just been staring at Zero, could it be that he and Zero were enemies, Darcy immediately got alert and walked over to secretly block Zero out.
"Thank you, we're in a hurry and have to go first," Darcy said, and Hui and James had also alertly gripped their weapons.
As soon as the man pushed Darcy out of the way, he walked towards Zero while saying, "No one is going to take you in front of me!"
His words were addressed to Zero, who locked his brows even tighter. The man wore a numb cloak, and under it was a black dress, the same one he had worn the night Zero left. Odds are, he's in a hurry and didn't even remember to change.
"No one can take me away! Unless I want to." Zero said as he saw a crystal pendant hanging from the man's clothes and secretly said, isn't this fool still too stupid to know how to hide his breath with it.
How would Zero have reacted if he'd known that this idiot only carried this thing if he'd given it to him!
"So you're happy to go with them?" The voice suddenly turned cold, and the air pressure around the person speaking suddenly dropped below Zero.
Darcy they had nervously drawn their weapons.
Zero frowned, annoyed. If this keeps up, this fool will kill them all!
So Zero's gaze went cold, danger was written in his eyes, the threat already clear, he dared to disobey his words...
The original angry, domineering man, suddenly softened and said sadly, "You've suddenly disappeared... it makes me worried!"
There was a hint of condescension in the tone of the Blood Emperor. The others on the side all froze, looking in surprise at the man who was still saber-rattling a moment ago.
Zero grunted coldly, a look that didn't ease the temperature on his cold face.
"Don't leave me, huh?" the Blood Emperor said, taking a step towards Zero.
The others looked at Zero with complicated expressions, and one of the gazes was one of jealousy and malice from Lacey.
Zero felt it and sneered. There are a lot of self-righteous people in this world.
The Blood Emperor moved closer to Zero, lowered his voice, and said in a voice that only two people could hear, "Let me follow you or I will kill them all."
Zero glared hard at the Blood Emperor, the bastard! If it wasn't for...
"Okay." Zero said. A pair of eyes looked at him threateningly, warning him not to talk nonsense.
Then he said to Darcy and them, "This man is a friend of mine, and he is good enough to come with us."
Zero spoke to them in a much gentler tone, and the Blood Emperor sounded jealous and very eager to kill them all! Damn it, how could Zero be so mean to himself, but gentle to others?
"Him? But..." hesitated Darcy, perception telling him that the man was dangerous, untrustworthy, and that the look he had just given Zero was suspicious.
"Since, it's your friend's words...what does everyone think?" Darcy asked, Lacey was excited to hear that the Blood Emperor was going to join them, of course she agreed, Aki of course listened to his sister also agreed, Hui felt that the man in front of her was indeed very strong, for the sake of the more experts the better, she naturally did not mind. The only one who had an opinion was James, but everyone agreed, and he had to agree. He secretly felt more guarded against Zero and the two of them.
"Hello, and welcome to our entourage." Darcy held out her hand towards the Blood Emperor.
The Blood Emperor looked at him disdainfully, not meaning to shake his hand, and Zero twisted his head to glare at him, which was before he reluctantly extended his hand.
"My name is Darcy, and you?" Darcy introduced herself, and the others introduced themselves, the Blood Emperor pulled at the corners of his mouth without speaking and looked at Zero.
"His name is Ai-Sha," Zero said.
"What a strange pronunciation."
"Chinese."
"Uh, is that the language of your oriental people?"
"Yes."
"Oh..."
Darcy had merely spoken to Zero, and the Blood Emperor looked at him with a vicious look that almost swallowed him whole! It made his scalp tingle and his whole body shivered with regrets not letting him in!
Since there was no one in town to open the door for them, they had to find some water to drink by the well in the center of town, and then they ate some dried meat sticks with the water.
After a night without sleep, everyone was tired, being in town and less defensive, so they turned their backs and started to rest.
Zero and the Blood Emperor sat away from them, and Zero asked the Blood Emperor, "How did you know I was here?"
"I don't know, just think, ooh... Zero, don't leave me in the future, okay? So worried." The dog hugged Zero and began to pet him. That's right, he came back to his room that day and didn't see Zero, he almost went crazy! I'm afraid Zero is just gone forever. He's already scared! Suddenly you feel so useless, so vulnerable.
Why? Why be affected by him to such an extent! The Blood Emperor feels like he's been poisoned by Zero and has been poisoned in his last life! So much so that he'll never be able to escape in his next life!
The Blood Emperor felt that he could do without everything, just not this person in front of him.
He stroked Zero's cheek and leaned back to kiss Zero's eyes, and Zero nestled quietly in his arms, feeling the Blood Emperor's shuddering touch.
So Zero took the Blood Emperor's cold hand and passed the temperature of his palm to the other.
