Chapter 83 Blood Moon's Nest Humming is okay, the Queen likes it. ...
[Disaster Realm: Blood Moon's Lair]
【Features: main, semi-closed】
[Note: This is a territory built around the Blood Moon Castle. The buildings in the territory are retro-Gothic. The sunlight is extremely scarce every day, and the interior of the city is also set off to be eerie and terrifying.]
【According to the Queen's regulations, candles must be lit every six kilometers wherever there are people.】
[Although the master of the domain sleeps in the castle and rarely goes out, his descendants are the opposite. They go out hunting frequently and hold banquets frequently to offer laughter and victory to the queen.]
[“Even if the sun never rises, the moon will always be high.”]
[The river flowing through the city was therefore stained with blood, with corpses floating on it, as if it was a warning, but also as a display of power. Outside the city, countless vampires roamed the wilderness, hunting and chasing prey.]
[As the vampires' activities became more radical, the city and the queen's name spread more widely.]
Li Ming opened his eyes.
He saw the flickering candlelight and the burning moths that surrounded the candlelight, densely packed together and burning themselves one after another.
Mottled light and shadows are projected onto the surrounding stone walls.
There was silence, except for the fluttering of the moths' wings and the burning of their own accord.
Li Ming quietly observed his surroundings. The environment he was in no longer had any connection with Lingcheng. Rather than being inside an abandoned high-rise building, it was more like being deep inside a secluded ancient city.
Some dark green moss grew in the cracks of the stone wall.
Li Ming looked up at the night sky and saw the blood moon again, as well as the dark castle beneath it. The surrounding buildings were all stained with a dim color and could not be seen clearly.
The moon's illumination is only a tiny fraction of the sun's.
Li Ming took a few steps forward and curiously poked his head out to observe the changes around him. Perhaps he was in a remote location, or the blood moon area was too large, so he did not see other people.
Should we wait for Li Yixi now?
A hint of hesitation flashed across Li Ming's eyes: his sister knew the situation in the Blood Moon Realm better than he did. If he acted on his own, he would easily cause trouble for his sister.
only……
Li Ming carefully lifted his left foot and took a step back. The sticky and heavy feeling coming from the soles of his feet made him frown, and the pungent smell hit him. He gently wiped a corner with his hand and found that it was the bloodstain he had seen in Lingcheng.
He still remembered the source of the trace.
These are the traces left by the crawling mass of flesh transformed by the Queen that roams the streets of the Blood Moon.
It seems that they have already settled down here... Li Ming concluded with a heavy expression: Now they should have accepted their responsibilities, patrolling the streets and hunting outsiders.
He has to be careful.
"hold head high--"
A strange cry, like the howling of wolves, came from afar. Li Ming subconsciously looked up at the night sky, and then saw several bats flying around in fear at the sound.
Before he could breathe a sigh of relief, a more intensive and twisted sliding sound than before came from all around.
Li Ming quickly retreated to his original corner.
He carefully hid himself in the shadow of the stone wall and looked at the intersection through the gaps between the vines climbing up the wall.
One, two, three...
Li Ming counted the number of black goat kids in his mind, and then saw the light appear:
[Derivative: Black Goat with Lantern]
[Disaster sequence: C-56 call, D-122 strength, E-234 scent tracking, E-232 sound empowerment]
[Note: A sticky mass of flesh and blood, with the upper body made of tentacles of a carnivorous plant, and covered with countless giant eyes and tentacles. They carry lanterns and patrol the streets within the Blood Moon City Wall.]
[Compared to the Black Goat Kids, they will not track intruders, nor will they attack intruders on purpose. They will only use sound to transmit the intruder's information to all the Black Goat Kids within a certain range.]
[PS: Black goats do not leave bloodstains on the road they walk on, but they cannot see things clearly in the dark. This is why they only hold lanterns.]
This huge mass of flesh and blood, which seemed like a leader, uttered a few murmurs and instructed the cubs behind it to track the invaders in different directions.
His lantern rang and rang, but it did not go out.
Li Ming waited patiently for a long time before the countless lumps of flesh, large and small, finally left in unison. When Li Ming came out from the dark place where he had been hiding, his face was very heavy.
Humans' night vision is not very good.
But if you rely too much on light, you will be spotted by the black goats with lanterns. There are also black goat kids, whose night vision is very good, so it is best to avoid them.
The bloodstains on the ground can help him avoid the black goat kid, but the depth of the bloodstains needs to be estimated by light.
A rather difficult question.
Li Ming sighed inwardly: I hope... I can only say that I hope I won't encounter more dangerous derivatives in the future...
He left here quietly.
If his speculation was correct, a black kid would pass by here soon. He needed to leave before the black kid came over, and then come back to wait for Li Yixi after he left.
But speaking of Li Yixi...
Li Ming suddenly thought: Under the premise that his sister's sequence is a blood sequence, can she see things clearly in the dark?
Then it is too obvious that the rules of this field are targeting this.
Targeting all existence outside of the non-blood sequence.
Li Ming shook his head helplessly. In his impression, the blood race lived as a family unit, and it was obvious that the blood sequence of disasters or apocalypses also had the same perception.
The surrounding environment has changed slightly.
Li Ming squatted obediently in a dark corner. The same shouts as before were heard intermittently, and he saw many pieces of flesh wandering back and forth.
So Li Ming suddenly thought:
Those intruders should be people from Lingcheng who wanted to escape from Lingcheng but unfortunately strayed into the Blood Moon.
Unlike the brother and sister who came prepared, they were frightened when they saw the monster, and then they were surrounded by the patrolling black goats. No one could escape and could only die here.
Li Ming expressed his heartfelt sympathy for this.
But if it weren't for the help of the 'Eye of Truth', he would have been in a mess. The only person who could understand the current situation was Li Yixi, and only Li Yixi.
Only she is most deeply involved with the Blood Moon.
"elder brother."
A female voice suddenly sounded behind me.
Li Ming was so frightened that his hands and feet were stiffened when his thoughts were suddenly interrupted. He turned around mechanically and saw his sister bending over and looking at him. Li Ming complained softly, "Sister, you scared me."
"I'm sorry, brother." Li Yixi replied calmly, "But it seems that no matter what method I use, I will scare you."
"That's right..."
Li Ming felt guilty after hearing this. He changed the subject and said, "Where did you come from? Why didn't I hear any movement from you?"
"Climbing over the wall."
“…”
"I just climbed a wall, brother. Don't look at me so weirdly."
“That’s not strange.”
Li Ming couldn't help but sigh: "I'm just wondering when my sister became so fond of rock climbing."
"Isn't that strange?"
After hearing this, Li Yixi said with a strange look on his face: "Brother, don't you have any experience of climbing walls in college? Don't you need to climb walls during military training and sneaking back to the dormitory in the early morning?"
"..." Li Ming's expression suddenly lost its luster.
"Really not." Li Yixi looked surprised, "Brother's university turned out to be a very conservative one?"
"No, this is definitely your college problem!"
Li Ming couldn't help but complain. His sister, his sister who was excellent in academics, sports and all-round, had only been in college for one year and had been transformed into what she is now. This was definitely the university's problem!
He shouldn't have let Li Yixi go to Lingda!
"It's a waste of time to talk about this now, brother." Li Yixi said seriously, "We have to leave here quickly."
So Li Ming nodded quickly.
The two rode on the black goat to chase other intruders while approaching the Blood Moon Castle in the center of the territory. Needless to say, the dangers on the road were numerous, but because of Li Yixi's appearance, the situation was actually easier than expected.
"Can all vampires have night vision?" Li Ming suddenly asked.
"Yes."
Li Yixi held his brother's hand and answered casually, "Almost all blood sequences above level C can have night vision. Because night is our 'day'."
"Then sister..." Li Ming asked with interest: "So is it true that vampires are afraid of light?"
"Forehead……"
Li Yixi hesitated after hearing this: "If brother is asking about the group of vampires wandering outside the city, they are afraid; but if it is the blood clan, they are just annoyed."
“It turns out they are not the same thing.”
"Um."
"Why is she afraid of light? Is there a hostile sequence?" Li Ming asked randomly. Because she was his sister, he asked without thinking.
Li Ming, who had only heard similar sequences, even made up a "hostile sequence" on the spot.
"Technically, we are all corpses. It's just a matter of how well we maintain them."
Li Yixi laughed and said jokingly, "The reason why corpses cannot be exposed to light is very simple, because they will rot. Although I don't know when I became a corpse, it seems that my corpse is still quite fresh."
“……”Li Ming was stunned.
"elder brother?"
"It's okay, Li Yixi. It's okay..." Li Ming replied in a dull tone. He knew about this matter. The forum had been arguing whether Li Yixi was still alive when he left the capital.
But now it seems that we can give an answer.
The two walked from the edge of the blood moon area to the center. Although the scenery on the road did not change significantly, the number of candles increased and the distance became shorter.
The surrounding houses began to show signs of living creatures.
"elder brother."
Li Yixi suddenly stopped. She turned sideways, pointed at one of the small houses and said, "We will enter the castle through the passage reserved for castle staff, so try not to run into the staff. And -"
"Be careful not to let her get your blood."
Li Ming looked up from the darkness at the small house. The lights were on on the second floor of the house, and a young-looking girl with eight spider legs was watering the flowers.
She is very beautiful, with a melancholy and gentle temperament.
[Derivative: Spider Maid]
[Disaster sequence: D-11 blood tracking, E-112 deformity]
[Note: A maid in Blood Moon Castle. Although she is clumsy and often breaks things, she doesn't sweep the floor or wash dishes cleanly, and she doesn't do things neatly. Her only advantage is that she is willing to take any beatings and can hum some decent songs.]
[It's ok to hum the song. The Queen likes it. 】
[So I am still trembling with fear when attending her class. ]
[So far, he is the only staff member living outside the castle. This is because he is too weak, and living in the castle would easily lead to him being beaten to death by the vampire knights who would occasionally destroy the castle.]
[PS: Even though I can’t do anything right, the Queen likes it. ]
Blood tracing? Isn't that exactly the sequence Li Yixi wanted in the first place?
Li Ming was stunned after seeing it.
But compared to this aspect, Li Ming is more concerned about——
"Is she your best friend?"
"No, it's not." Li Yixi's eyes were still looking at the other person calmly, "But she hums very nicely, so we should try to keep her."
“It sounds really nice.”
At the end of his words, Li Yixi couldn't help but repeat it softly.
