Chapter 86 Mom, This is a Way to Survive

"Why are you here?"

Li Ming murmured in astonishment. He had never expected to meet the plague doctor that the little witch had emphasized in his sister's field. What connection could the plague doctor have with his sister?

The open curtains swayed gently in the wind.

The plague doctor who came to close the door glanced at Li Ming through his beak mask, and then closed the wooden door silently. He said nothing, just as the "Eye of Truth" had noted to him, and served as a decoration in the castle competently.

"etc!"

Li Ming was caught off guard and stretched out his hand. Just as he took a step to try to stop the plague doctor from closing the door, the castle suddenly shook.

Li Ming was shocked and almost fell to the ground.

He quickly supported himself with both hands to keep his balance. When he looked up at the wooden door, it had already closed. Without time to think about the plague doctor, Li Ming turned his head and looked out the castle window.

Something more serious than what just happened happened.

Scarlet thorn flowers were blooming on the castle's outer walls, their branches and leaves penetrating deep into the cracks in the walls, but the noise just now was obviously not caused by them.

The queen woke up.

His awakening made the scarlet thorns that were supposed to be dormant active again. The blood outside the window was deeper than before. The blood moon was no longer a symbol, but a weapon of killing.

Li Ming saw the other person's figure flashing through the stone window.

[Disaster: Blood Queen]

[Disaster sequence: A-07 blood manipulation, D-96 self-healing, S-14-blood god, B-65 curse, D-110 blood relatives]

[Note: She was the hope of mankind to resist disasters when she was alive, and she became a mobile natural disaster that people feared after her death. No one can deny her achievements, but compared to the title of "Hope of Mankind", her title of "Blood Queen" is more impressive.]

【Recover your followers and transform them into derivatives.】

[His blood moon domain once became a feared existence for many lives. 】

[“Queen, Queen, please allow me to ask you a question——”]

[“What were you thinking about when you gazed at the northern sky for a long time?”]

The Blood Queen wore a pitch-black funeral dress, her hands elegantly crossed in front of her chest, and walked leisurely towards the other end of the castle; under her pitch-black veil, a few strands of white hair fluttered in the wind, and a pair of red eyes were faintly visible.

He was definitely not awake.

Li Ming came to a conclusion in an instant after seeing this, and anxiety instantly rose in his heart: Damn, he must have gone to find Li Yixi.

The Queen's actions were still in accordance with the rules of the Mirror City, but what about the derivatives... Li Ming bit his nails anxiously, trying to calm himself down:

The derivatives act according to the rules of Blood Moon's Lair... But if they notice this...

The scene of the red skirt strangling his human self suddenly appeared in front of Li Ming's eyes. Li Ming subconsciously took a few steps back. After the fear and anxiety faded away, only tenacity remained.

As an older brother, he would never tolerate this happening.

"The queen has left her residence, Li Ming, the queen has left her residence..." Li Ming emphasized to himself with a trembling voice, "Now it's my turn to get the key."

Now, immediately, right away.

Without time to think, Li Ming strode towards the queen's room. If it was Li Yixi, Li Yixi would definitely be able to react to what they should do most now.

The two's escape plan can still go on.

Li Ming was originally very close to the Queen's room. He did not encounter any obstacles on his way there. On the contrary, when Li Ming glanced out the window, he found that quite a lot of derivatives were gathering outside the castle.

They haven't discovered the problem yet.

Just thought it was another one of the Queen's sleepwalking.

When Li Ming opened the iron gate with great difficulty, he smelled an extremely strong smell of blood, but it was not as disgusting as he had imagined. Instead, it had a sweet fragrance, like fermented wine.

Countless thorn bushes weaved into a huge bed curtain, surrounding the white bed like a cage. Blood turned into an artificial lake and flowed quietly between the floor tiles of the room. Most of the floor tiles had already been soaked red with blood.

When Li Ming thought about how many lives were lost in such a pool of blood, he couldn't think any further. But somehow, the first thing that came to his mind was:

The Queen should feel insecure.

He wove a spiked cage for himself out of thorns. While the cage served as a defense against intruders, it also proved that he did not trust anyone within the castle.

He is a lonely monster who is neither trusted nor trusts others.

Li Ming tiptoed towards the bed. The less you trust the people around you, the more important things you will put within your reach.

The sharp thorn branches are extremely prickly.

But because the current room has limited items, Li Ming can only rely on brute force to explore. A pair of human palms were pierced by the thorns and bled everywhere.

Li Ming couldn't count how many times he was stabbed. He only knew that before his blood was almost sucked dry, he finally touched a small box similar to the one Li Yixi mentioned.

When he took out the box, the space that previously allowed his arm to enter suddenly became narrow. Li Ming gritted his teeth and forcibly pulled his arm and the box out.

Blood spurted onto his clothes and trouser legs.

Without time to check the wound, Li Ming hurriedly shook the wooden box. The light, sharp metal object collided with the wooden box, producing several dull sounds.

Li Ming heaved a sigh of relief after hearing this:

Great, got it right on the first try.

With the help of the sharp thorns, he successfully took the silver key from the wooden box. The pattern on the key was not complicated. On the contrary, if it weren't for Li Yixi's reminder, he would not have thought how important the key was.

But now, this is a way to survive.

Before he felt dizzy, Li Ming quickly pulled off his coat. The coat was too rough, but fortunately the lining he was wearing was not.

Thanks to JAC, and his ridiculously expensive clothing brand.

Li Ming tried his best to stay focused while bandaging the wound using the first aid methods taught in school. Of course, the bandaging technique for the wound cannot be said to be very good, it can only be said that it is just barely acceptable.

He waved his hand to make sure that no blood leaked out and quickly ran out of the room.

He still has a lot to do...

Excessive blood loss and excessive anxiety impacted Li Ming's nerves. Li Ming felt a buzzing pain in his ears, and the things in front of him overlapped from time to time.

Li Ming leaned against the wall with one hand, feeling somewhat uncomfortable.

No, there is no way to get out of the castle in this situation... With cold sweat on his forehead, he gritted his teeth and thought: Hold on, Li Ming, hold on...

Once we leave here, everything will be better.

But somehow, Li Ming's heart always felt empty, as if he realized that he had forgotten something, or as if he realized that he was forgetting something.

He looked back unconsciously and happened to meet the eyes of the Spider Maid.

The maid stood at the corner of Li Ming's path, holding a mop in both hands, as if she was preparing to clean the area, or as if she was planning to follow Li Ming.

After realizing that Li Ming had discovered her, the maid clenched the mop tremblingly.

Li Ming's gaze lingered for a long time on the obvious bloodstain on the carpet which was very close to the spider maid, and murderous intent rose uncontrollably in his heart.

He remembered Li Yixi's instructions.

Li Yixi once said, "Be careful not to let the maid take your blood." Blood tracking is an extremely troublesome sequence. If your blood is taken, it means that no matter where you escape to, you will be discovered by the other party.

He must kill the other person.

Li Ming walked towards the maid quickly. His face was extremely gloomy, which made the maid panic. The spider maid fell to the ground trembling.

Once again, she couldn't control her eight spider legs.

"No, don't kill me..." The Spider Maid held her head in fear. She was too weak to even run away, but such a weak derivative had a very tricky disaster sequence.

But...but...

But my sister likes her.

The thought of killing collapsed in Li Ming's heart. He grabbed the man's neck with one hand and dragged him into the nearest room like dragging garbage.

"Ah?" The Spider Maid was caught off guard.

The imagined harm did not occur. Instead, there was a young man with a gloomy face in front of her, ready to tie her up first. The maid blinked blankly and let Li Ming do it.

"Damn, so many legs! One rope is not enough!" Li Ming said impatiently.

"ah……"

The maid blinked blankly. After noticing Li Ming's bleeding arm, she pointed at the medical supplies behind him and asked in a trembling voice:

"Do you need me to bandage you?"

Li Ming: “…”

Li Ming immediately glared back fiercely: "Prisoner, stop talking!"

"Woo..." The spider maid was so frightened that she immediately covered her head with her hands. Soon, she couldn't suppress her sobs in the room, but even though she cried, it didn't hinder Li Ming's actions.

Li Ming was relieved about this.

So he quickly disinfected himself with medical alcohol and bandaged himself hastily with medical bandages. In any case, it was definitely much better than before.

Li Ming took big strides and prepared to open the door and leave.

Just as his fingers touched the door handle, he heard the spider maid behind him shouting in panic: "Wait, wait, can you dig out my eyes?"

A ridiculous thing.

After hearing this, Li Ming looked at the other party with a strange look.

“You’re going to need Him.”

Seeing this, the maid trembled and emphasized: "You will really need Him. He is a very useful talent."

"I've never seen you helping like this." Li Ming couldn't help but complain.

He had felt that the Spider Maid was doing more harm than good before, and now he felt that the Spider Maid was doing more harm than good. If Li Ming was a derivative of the Blood Moon Domain, he would want to execute him after tonight.

"But... He can help you find each other..."

The Spider Maid was at a loss when she heard this. What made Li Ming feel strange was that although her eyes were reflecting his own image, Li Ming felt strangely that she was looking at another person gently.

Just like mom.

Speaking of which, this face...

Li Ming carefully looked at the spider maid's face: he indeed found that he had seen a similar face somewhere before. Because the time was too recent, or the impression was too deep...

Li Ming quickly found the owner of the other face.

It belongs to Li Yixi.

A fleeting guess emerged from his mind, and then the uncontrollable anger fermented in Li Ming's heart. Li Ming almost gritted his teeth to finally control his body's actions and not do anything more extreme.

He thought everything would get better... He thought everything would be the same...

What are you doing?

Did it change last week?

She is obviously his sister, why is everyone running over to compete with him for Li Yixi?

Li Ming was so sad that he wanted to cry: If there was no Li Yixi... If there was no Li Yixi, he would really be without an anchor...

Isn't this a disguised way of calling him a non-human?

And he is a bad guy who breaks up other people's families, brainwashes other people's daughters, and causes other people's wives and children to be separated?

Li Ming doesn't want to be that kind of person.

So Li Ming said hysterically: "She is not your daughter, she is not anyone's daughter, and she is not anyone else's sister. She is my sister! What are you doing? Don't run out now to snatch someone else's sister!"

Li Ming shouted a series of words without stopping.

Li Ming was out of breath after he finished speaking, and the spider maid was so frightened that she dared not move. She was at a loss as to where to look, but she still mustered up her courage and said to Li Ming tremblingly:

"I... I'm not here to steal your sister... I just..."

The maid stretched out her tightly bound hands. In her palms, a pair of bloody eyes were placed there. She insisted weakly:

"Please take them with you. They will be of great help to you on your journey."

She relied on this pair of eyes to find her daughter back then, and in the future her daughter will be able to rely on this pair of eyes to find her brother, no matter which brother it is.
