Chapter 7 The Life Given
"Lisiduowei! What are you doing! What have you done to me, a nobleman!"
When Lisiduowei's followers rushed to the town, they saw a scene that looked like purgatory in the town. The nobles who had some experience immediately understood what this woman was doing. She was extracting blood from others without limit in order to keep herself alive.
Lisiduowei had a strange smile on her face. Her whole body was covered with cracks. From the cracks, dark blood flowed, but it was faintly seen that there was a golden light blooming in her body, as if it was going to explode in the next second. Anyone who saw this scene would not think it was a good thing.
"What are you talking about? My followers, choosing eternal life naturally means paying a price. You become my followers, so you naturally have to be dominated by me. This is a very reasonable thing. Do you have any doubts about this?" She had no intention of talking to these followers at this moment. After all, they were all a group of weaklings. She was the vampire queen! She knew better than anyone how these self-righteous guys viewed her. She had been polite and respectful to them in the past because of their positions, just for this moment...
"It's time for you to pledge your loyalty to the Queen!"
Blood began to be drawn from these followers.
"Lisiduowei! Do you want to be enemies with humans?!"
There were still nobles questioning this question.
Lisiduowei showed a trace of doubt on her face: "Do you think I'm going to die and still care about human affairs?"
"No! Lisiduowei! Let us go! We can bring more people to you! If you kill us now, you will die anyway!"
"There's no time, my lords. If I had time, I would have eaten the people in Butuo City myself. How could I summon you here? I am now living one second at a time."
"Damn it! Look at my holiness..."
Someone wanted to take out some props from his pocket, but it was meaningless, because the activities of these followers were completely under the control of Lisiduowei, and they couldn't even activate the sacred props they got from the church.
"It's really interesting. They are my followers, but they still carry sacred items. Are they traitors sent by the church? But it doesn't make sense."
Lisiduowei's eyes were filled with dead silence.
She knew she was going to die here.
One second longer is one second longer - she probably lived many more years. The moment she betrayed the Demon King, her fate was already determined.
No, that's not right.
Maybe even earlier...
Memories began to flow continuously, and Lisiduowei remembered the first two generations of vampires kneeling in front of the Demon King when she was born.
"Master Demon! Our lives are coming to an end! Please help us!"
However, the Demon King at that time just sat on the throne: "I know your lifespan has come to an end, so I made the third generation. You have lived long enough." He looked completely indifferent, staring at the two vampires with indifferent eyes, "You two are both failed works, and it seems that this third generation is not successful... The waste of the experiment must have the consciousness of waste. Considering your merits, I have let you live long enough."
The third generation was not successful either?
What does this mean? Am I not a successful work?
At the beginning of her birth, Li Si Duowei had already realized at this time that her future was no different from the two creatures kneeling in front of the Demon King at this moment. Sooner or later, she would kneel in front of the Demon King like them and ask the Demon King to grant her a longer life.
There seemed to be nothing wrong with this. After all, everything was given by the Demon King. Life was created by the Demon King. He wanted them to live as long as they wanted.
If the Demon King wanted them to die, they should have died honestly... Why did they beg for survival like this?
The newly born Lisiduowei didn't understand.
"Demon King!"
The two generations of vampire queens had no dignity, just kneeling on the ground and constantly calling "Demon King". They didn't even dare to make any excuses or persuasion, but just blindly showed their sadness and pity.
"Lisiduowei."
The Demon King suddenly called her name.
"Do you think they should live?"
I think?
The Demon King asked for my opinion?
How should I answer?
At this moment, Lisiduowei didn't have that much wisdom. She naturally gave an answer based on the "settings" in her mind: "For the Demon King, the existence that is no longer useful should be eliminated."
She saw the playful smile on the Demon King's face when she gave this answer. She also saw the trembling of the first two generations of vampires kneeling on the ground. They didn't look at the Demon King, but at herself.
What kind of eyes were that?
Lisiduowei could not see any anger in them. Logically speaking, they should hate and detest her for saying such words... She actually saw an emotion called "pity" in their eyes.
She almost thought that there was something wrong with her soul's cognition, but the Demon King would not make such a mistake. So, these two people were indeed looking at her with pity... Why?
They were obviously going to die, why were they pitying her?
The blood of the family members was gradually exhausted, and the scene they saw at the time of birth became clearer and clearer. She seemed to know what the pity in the eyes of the first two generations of vampires was. They already knew such a future, a fate that any vampire must face... The life given by the Demon King will be taken away by the Demon King.
...Even if you resist, even if you kill the devil, this fate will not change.
Are you still not satisfied after living for so many years?
Lisi Duowei once thought about this question. The longer she lived, the more she wanted to live, but the scene of that scene always lingered in Lisi Duowei's mind. She knew that she was powerless to resist the devil, so when the "brave man" appeared, she did not look back. Some people thought that the vampire queen fell in love with the brave man - no, it was not the case. She just hoped that someone could fight the devil.
The brave A. Godora did it.
If I really fell in love with him at that time, it would be good.
In this way, if I stayed by his side when he was in pain, I guess I wouldn't have such a miserable result now. In the past ten years, she knew what the brave man faced, but... she did nothing.
Ah... no.
At this time, she was still calculating and still wanted to live... As a result, she didn't understand human love at all.
"Lisi Duowei!"
She heard a familiar voice.
It might not be appropriate to say familiar. This voice was more vicissitudes and rougher than before. But she knew whose voice it was. When her eyes began to break, she saw the unshaven figure.
Then...
she felt it.
A hand pierced directly into her heart, crushed her heart with brute force, and held the drop of golden blood from her heart. The blood of the devil would not be humiliated like this, but this hand was as stable as a mountain, and took the drop of blood out forcefully.
The blood of the devil could not escape from the hands of the hero.
The essence of vampires made Lisiduowei's body begin to recover, but even such injuries would take some time.
She recovered her eyes first.
She saw that the hero cut his wrist with his hands and merged the golden blood into his body, and then the wound healed quickly. She could even see the golden light flowing in the hero's body...
If she didn't do this, the drop of blood would still return to her body.
A. Godola just stood there, holding Lisiduowei. After more than half an hour, the light spots in his body stopped moving around and calmed down.
He let Lisiduowei go: "Your body should have recovered almost completely. But the damage is very serious..."
"Yes, I can probably live for a few years at most."
Although the hero arrived at the last moment, the "essence" had suffered great damage. Even blood sucking could not continue to sustain the life of the vampire queen. Her life was coming to an end.
"Why are you here? A. Godola."
"Call me Doro."
Lisiduowei was stunned for a moment, then nodded: "Okay."
"We were all calculated by the Demon King."
Of course, they were certainly calculated by the Demon King. If not...
"She should have gotten her left hand." Lisiduowei's expression was not good, "You also exposed your identity. The revival of the Demon King and the reappearance of the hero - at such a close distance, perhaps someone will put the blame on you, thinking that you resurrected the Demon King."
Lisiduowei foresaw what might happen next.
"That's why I said that we were all calculated by the Demon King. You would become a pretender to surrender, but in fact you have been preparing for the resurrection of the Demon King, and I would become the 'dragon slayer who eventually becomes the evil dragon'. The two of us colluded and resurrected the Demon King to plunge the world into darkness again."
"In that case, why did you..."
"It's too late. My body made a choice before my brain, and this was probably calculated by the Demon King. She knew what I would do."
Lisiduo bit her lips tightly: "So, what you mean is that we can only go to our Demon King now..."
"If you give up the will to live, it doesn't matter. But in this world, the only one who can continue to give you life is the Demon King, right?"
Give life...
The scene of the past once again appeared in front of Lisiduowei, her face was pale, and her body was shaking: "She won't give me life. To her, vampires are just a failed product... The first and second generations are like this..."
Doro didn't refute her words, he just asked: "So, do you want to live?"
