Chapter 45: Driven by You Li An still remembers the last time the little bat was first...
Li An still remembered that the little bat spoke a long string of words in a gibberish manner when he first saw her.
Although she neither listened carefully nor remembered anything at all.
Today's little bat looks a little emo.
It hung upside down on the window frame, with the moonlight reflected in its tiny eyeballs.
After a while, the little bat asked her, "Who are you?"
Why do little things always ask her this kind of question recently?
Li An said casually: "What do you think?"
*
What does she think?
Marta just felt something was strange.
But she didn't want to move. If the other person came to kill her, she would have died long ago. This person came quietly without even disturbing the air. It seemed that it was very easy for him to kill people.
Marta thought of the original owner of the castle.
Typhon died in the morning light. Now think about it, maybe it was this person who took away Typhon's supernatural power.
So do we have to take away her superpowers too?
Marta was not in the mood.
She asked wearily, "Does the soul really exist?"
Does her soul look like the hunter she once was, or the vampire duke she is now?
The being that was neither human nor ghost spoke in a gentle tone, and it sounded like nothing could move it.
"If you think there is, then there is."
Marta exhaled.
I'm really thinking too much, even bringing up random religious beliefs to think about.
"Are you here to kill me?"
"no."
Marta turned her head, no longer staring at the distant moon, and saw the eyes of the person who came.
There is a moonlit night in my eyes, and the stars are flowing slowly.
She didn't even want to ask.
She actually didn't want to go on living anymore.
Do days like this really have any meaning?
A black cat jumped onto the windowsill, squatted down, and swung its tail behind it.
The black cat opened its mouth and spoke in human language: "Don't worry about this, let's talk business."
Business?
There is no such word in the vampire society. Whoever is stronger naturally owns everything.
The black cat continued, "I can tell you where the Original is."
Marta's face changed.
All the tiredness, laziness and boredom receded like a tide, and my heart skipped a beat.
"you--"
"What price are you willing to pay?" The black cat's pupils erected.
Marta subconsciously glanced at the black cat's owner, who was also looking at her.
He smiled a gentle smile.
"You can take everything I have, including my soul."
Marta now believes that the soul really exists, otherwise it would be difficult to explain where that unknown trembling feeling comes from.
She no longer wondered what her soul would look like.
The powerful vampire half-knelt down and bowed his head.
The god looked down at her.
"After I kill the First Ancestor, I am willing to serve you."
Or eat.
A gentle breeze blows under the moon.
"Deal done."

"What do I need a bat for?" Li An asked it.
I thought casually: "Eat it?"
Li An: “…”
She was speechless. "Don't say such horrible things all the time. This bat can speak human language."
And eating wild animals is too much.
I continued to think casually: "What about being an urban management officer?"
"Don't you think your paper city is missing a city manager?"
Li An thought about it. Although the progress of Paper City was slow, theoretically speaking, it was indeed missing a city manager.
She returned to her studio and picked up a stack of papers.
If you continue like this, you will be punished as an urban management officer.
The black cat looked at it and felt something was wrong: "Why don't you fold a bat?"
“Have you ever heard of cat and dog molding?”
Li An held up the paper figurine in her hand: "This one, I asked someone to make it."
Choke casually.
So you can see the true form of the bat, but the godhead is still pretending to be stupid?
It sighed and muttered, "...Stinky lychees."
Li An was unmoved. She took out a box of colored pencils and started drawing a face on the paper figure.
The little bat's eyes look more like black and red, but they are already human-made, so changing the eye color is no big deal.
A corner of jade is used as an eye, and the shape of flames is used as hair, and the eyes are bright.
A very handsome paper figure of urban management.
Li An placed the paper man in the city, and now the city on the island has begun to take shape.

After the conference, the full-staff review was determined to be part of normal management and was carried out simultaneously with the quarterly performance reviews.
For the young hunter who had just joined the association, there was just an examiner with a kind face who spoke to her and then left.
The examiner's ability level was far higher than Bai Li's, so even though Bai Li knew that the other party was examining her spiritual body, she still couldn't feel it at all.
Back to the classes, after the public trial, classes continued as usual, but Bai Li had an additional new course.
——"One Hundred Ways to Use Superpowers Properly"
Bai Li: "Are there really a hundred ways?"
Jiuyi said: "No."
"The course titles are chosen by the instructors themselves, and they mean what they mean." It just doesn't look very serious.
Unlike theoretical classes on weekdays, this course is a practical class held on weekends, and there are a lot of people in each class.
Bai Li is a transfer student.
Although she has special abilities, she is still a minor and is not allowed to go to the front line according to the Hunter Code, so she simply spends all her time studying.
Of course, she could also refuse. The association was not in a hurry to urge the children to grow up, but she herself was also very interested in these things.
Jiuyi led her into the teaching venue - which was actually more like a musical theater hall that had been requisitioned for use.
Then Jiuyi left. She was actually quite busy, but she would always show up whenever Bai Li needed help.
The venue is surprisingly large.
There's no room to sit down.
Bai Li stood at the door for a while, hesitating between squatting in the front row or standing in the back row.
...You might not be able to see anything if you stand in the back row.
A group of guys who were obviously not new hunters filled the seats. Each one was stronger and taller than the other.
The food in the Hunter Association's cafeteria is very delicious - Bai Li has experienced this firsthand.
But this is not the main reason. According to the theoretical classes two days ago, after a person awakens his superpowers, his body will develop again.
Bai Li looked around at the hunters, stretched out her own hands and looked at them - there were no signs of exercise, and the calluses on her finger joints were caused by writing.
This theory is indeed true.
At this moment, several hunters who knew each other had already started playing rock-paper-scissors not far from her, and the winner cheered.
Then the winner said, "Little boy, sit here with me."
He pinched his throat and tried to make a dripping sound with his grizzly appearance.
Bai Li looked over in a daze.
The other person grinned.
The hunters around couldn't stand it anymore and started to push this guy out one after another.
"Come and sit down. There's no room left. If you stand at the back, you won't be able to see anything from your height."
"What are you talking about! It's obvious that she hasn't grown yet, why are you so anxious? Newcomers are potential monsters, and you, a half-buried man, should just stop talking."
According to official data, the average life expectancy of all hunters is less than 40 years old, so hunters over the age of 20 will joke that they are already half buried in the ground.
Then... they started arguing, or rather, it was just a quarrel between acquaintances, insulting and cursing each other.
Bai Li hesitated for a moment before finally walking over. After all, it was the first row, and it was probably the only place where she could sit and see the podium.
The other party immediately left his seat happily, earning a lot of "tsk——" from his colleagues.
Bai Li fidgeted uncomfortably and asked, "Why does he look so happy?"
Although the first row isn't the best place to stay, it's still very convenient for attending classes.
The person sitting next to her said, "Oh, we all failed the last term, and the old man ordered us to sit in the first row so he could easily drag people up there."
Bai Li: “…”
The hunter chuckled and said, "Don't worry, you look like a newcomer. Old men don't like to embarrass children."
Being discovered is a manifestation of love from your companions, how can it be considered as escape?
Bai Li didn't know how to respond. Although she could understand that all hunters looked at newcomers like children, she could never reconcile with this matter.
The hunter smiled and turned back to laugh with his companions.
Only children wish they weren't children.
Bai Li opened the class schedule and wanted to see the name of the teacher for this class.
Then she saw a very, very, very strange code name.
——『Hunter’s blood is a little sweet』
Bai Li: ???
While Bai Li was extremely confused and bewildered, class began.
He was indeed an old man, belonging to the very rare group of hunters over fifty years old.
Then this sweet teacher coughed.
Bai Li immediately noticed that the unqualified students in the first row were sitting upright.
The teacher's sharp eyes swept across the first row. He narrowed his eyes and stared accurately at the unqualified student standing in the gap in the last row.
"Loving your compatriots is very good." He nodded and had no objection to this.
Then he said, "Then you come up first."
"ah?!"
Grizzly Bear squeezed out from the last row in dejection and didn't dare to say a word while standing on the podium.
"You come up too."
Bai Li met the teacher's gaze and pointed at himself.
The teacher blinked.
Okay, Bai Li left her seat.
But she felt that the teacher didn't seem very strict, so why did they act as if the teacher was scary?
And since they thought so, they still came to class one after another, with no intention of not attending. She remembered that there were many supernatural power practice classes, but only Teacher Xue Tian's class was always full.
Of course, there are reasons for this, and at least one of them has already jumped in through the window.
Teacher Xue Tian has many students, and many of them don’t mind coming to help the teacher when they are free.
Most of these people have already achieved success and are high-level hunters respected by everyone.
For example, the hunter who entered the classroom in an unconventional way.
Bai Li watched her jump in, but felt as if he saw a pool of water pouring in.
It's not just that her hair and eyes are aqua blue, but more importantly, her body shape and her entire aura are very much like flowing water.
Except for the broom in her hand.
Teacher: "Why don't you just take out a broom?"
The other party was even more speechless: "You caught me while I was cleaning. I was originally here for a meeting and I was leaving soon."
The content of the meeting must not be revealed because it involves more complicated matters, such as informants among vampires and how to treat hunters after they are transformed into vampires.
As for why it is rare to hold an offline meeting... it is said that there are still traitors who have not been identified by all members, so they have to hold an offline meeting and inform everyone one by one. No one can know the full picture of the meeting - except the president.
Teacher Xue Tian said slowly. He himself was a senior hunter. Although he had retired to the second line, he had shed his blood and risked his life when he was young.
Of course he knew about the meeting. "That's nothing. Don't worry. I'll ask someone later. Wouldn't it be more convenient to find someone to give you a ride back to District 9 than to go back on your own?"
"Okay, enough talking, let's go to class."
The hunter raised his broom and looked over everyone in the classroom with eyes as clear as a mountain stream.
She said, "My code name is 'Sewer Repairer'"
The repairman smiled and said, "Please give me some advice."
