Chapter 206: The Coming of Silence (73): The Brightness of Blood (Part 1)
April 25th, 527th year of the New Lunar Calendar.
The Zine Empire, the areas controlled by the three major churches of the Lost, the new settlement area, the "Dark Night Zone" in the Silent Highlands, the "Bright of Blood" underground castle of the Dark Night Church, and the "VIP Area Room A-03" of the "Bright of Darkness" Palace.
…
Laite felt as if he had been asleep for a long time in a dream that spanned centuries.
The messy, colorful, and bizarre dreams kept him in a state of half-dream and half-awake, as if he was sick. He fell asleep under the suffocation feeling like holding his throat, and then woke up from this hypoxic state, but his brain woke up and his body
The "dream demon" is still in a sleeping state.
He didn't know when he fell asleep. He only knew that when he realized that he was in a dream, the changes in his surrounding environment made him unpredictable and unpredictable.
A second ago, he was eating lunch in a bright environment in his own home. It seemed... it seemed to be an expensive and high-energy dinner.
Roast mutton, roasted buns, large plate of chicken, naan pitted meat, scrambled eggs with skin buds... The table of delicacies made him salivate. When a full plate full of la tiaozi was brought to him, he felt the long-lost feeling for him.
The excitement of food.
But when he really picked up the tachyon and provoked his face, a chaotic purple light flashed, and he seemed to have returned to the "front camp" of the Zine Empire, with "Ning Yuan" Hefeng, and "Young Wolf"
The scene during the confrontation between Yin Wan.
But in the dream, everything is gray, except blood.
He saw the huge drill controlled by "Ning Yuan" penetrate Yin Wan's body, and also saw Feng controlling the power of "ice and snow" and piercing his throat with an ice pick.
Feng's face... Laite realized in his dream that it was very abnormal. His expression was too distorted. His face was full of cyan blood vessels, his nostrils were seeping with sticky, foaming blood, and his eyeballs were bulging, as if he was about to break through his thin body.
The restraints in the eye sockets and those pale green eyes were like a demon crawling out from the depths of the earth with a putrid smell.
Is this fake? It doesn’t exist...
I have to wake up, wake up from this nightmare!
Laite thought and struggled, until he was half asleep and half awake, as if the state of a dream demon was blessing him, and he switched to a strange scene he had never seen before.
The blood-red sky without any decorations, the streets and high-rise buildings that look extremely dark in the dim style, and the "people" walking on the ground, each with only dark outlines and no visible attire.
Laite found himself in a strange city.
Although he still didn't feel the existence of his body, Laite discovered that he could control his consciousness to "float" deeper into the city.
Like soft clouds swaying in the wind.
This city is generally a product of the steam age. Although the buildings are very tall, the highest ones are only 15-20 floors, and they are concentrated in the center of the city where every street leads. It seems to be a "commercial area".
Near the gray river in the distance were rows of factories emitting pure black smoke. Huge mechanical vehicles that he had never seen before were driven out of the cement road.
In his opinion, the size is similar to the large trucks seen in the previous world, but the mechanical arms extending outward around the vehicles and the lifting devices suggest that these vehicles are generally used for construction projects.
"Floating" again and changing the perspective, Laite saw a "secluded place" where there were almost no human beings, but a deep cobblestone path suddenly appeared among the rows of tall buildings.
"Walking" inside, he saw four three-story Western-style buildings and a garden that was rarely painted in normal colors.
Suppressing the throbbing pain and weakness caused by the half-asleep and half-awake state, Laite continued to concentrate on looking.
The entire garden was covered with a thin, dense crimson mist.
The pavilion originally composed of white stone pillars in the center looks particularly red, giving people a violent aesthetic impulse. However, the several poplar trees planted around it and the sunflowers blooming in all directions on the ground still give it the appearance of a garden.
There is something pure and beautiful about it.
A gurgling artificial river surrounds the middle of the garden and runs through the sunflowers. The river water is like dripping with pure black ink, creating unique waves.
Just as Laite looked at the black "flowers" carefully, a girl's pure voice appeared behind him.
"You...are here? Are you here specifically to find me?"
"Who?" Laite was shocked and turned around to look.
It was a human with the figure of a girl in classical Crusad clothing.
Fortunately, her body is not completely black.
She was wearing a long skirt with a red base, inlaid with various gemstones, and embroidered with wheat ears and deformed double-headed eagle patterns, while the color of the inner clothes showed a mixture of white and dim yellow patterns.
Her skirt trailed on the ground, forming a semicircle shape, and the part trailing on the ground formed a complex rose.
The waistband and bustle of the skirt gave the girl in front of her a graceful and elegant demeanor, but she did not show her face, but wore a mask made of military fabric.
The eyes of the mask are a pair of circular lenses that protrude outward. Looking inward, Laite only observes a pair of purple eyes with a hesitant look, and the mouth is a tube connected to the oxygen backpack carried on the girl's back.
The pipe, as a whole, seems to be a gas mask.
But the strange thing is that the girl's voice does not feel muffled at all, as if her voice comes from her body or soul.
"I... snore... snore..."
Laite wanted to respond to the girl's question, but what shocked him was that he could not make any human sounds. His throat seemed to have disappeared, and he could only make ugly sounds similar to the snoring of monsters.
"Haha, you are so cute, you little thing." The girl said in a gentle tone again, showing a sense of care.
Little thing? I am a human being, does my body change in the dream?
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Is this a dream? Could it be that it is a time-travel of consciousness again?
Laite was confused. He wanted to move his arms and pull it in front of his eyes to see what kind of state he had become, but to his surprise, he found that he had turned into a ball of objects similar to slime.
Moreover, it is floating in mid-air!
The girl couldn't see Laite's expression, but she was surrounded by white arms like walls, hugging Laite's strange body, and said resentfully to herself:
"I thought you were here to save me, little thing. It seems that you are also a 'soul body' that accidentally broke into this place. That's right, without 'Klassen's Mask', how can any real human being or extraordinary person be able to rescue me?"
How about breaking into this place? This is an alien world called the 'Crimson Demon Realm'. It may be the past world, or it may be the future. But I have never stepped out of this garden."
"Where is the 'Crimson Demon Realm'? 'Klassen's Mask', is it the banned sequential monster that blocks the mark? Why do I come here? It is the identity of [Order], and it is close to the core of Silent Highlands
Does the position resonate with the power of the 'Daughter of Tools'? Or is it the power of the red magic source, or the operation of 'Red-faced Hain'? If it is the latter, he will really cause trouble for me!" Laite cursed.
, but still cannot make normal sound.
"Actually, I have been waiting for a knight to find me and rescue me from here." The girl hugged Laite, looked up at the crimson sky, and hesitated:
"I haven't seen the little thing alive for a long time. I've talked a bit too much today, but I still want to talk. After all, you can't speak, right?"
Laite's "soul body" emitted a low hum, like a whistle, in response.
"Yes, when I fell into a deep sleep and was imprisoned here by the 'Eternal Red Lord', the Krusted Empire was already on the verge of destruction. Such a powerful empire, with an armored cluster that swept everything, has long since ceased.
Restore the glory of Yin Fan as the 22nd Emperor."
"I remember that before I fell asleep, there seemed to be a rebellion in the capital. In desperation, my father sent me to the south, the legendary location closest to God. He said that I must find the part of the central empire that is closest to the moon.
The 'Land of the Moon'. At that time, it was a realm of ice and snow in a hot environment. Legend has it that in the First Era, it was the so-called 'paradise' of the wolf tribe."
"But," the girl walked towards the sunflowers and paced back and forth:
"Although I have lost a lot of memories before entering here, I clearly remember that our Rurik family has been multiplying for more than a thousand years. Strictly speaking, the Zine Empire and the Krusted Empire are related to each other. It is a pity that
, for so long, my family in these two countries have not tried to find me. Although I am lonely, helpless, painful and lonely, I am still waiting for a handsome knight wearing a mask to break through the blood-red shackles and take me away.
Away from the 'Crimson Demon Realm'."
The girl sighed softly and lowered her head again, as if staring at the messy flowers.
Zi La——Zi La——
Suddenly, a fierce sound of electric current passed through, and Laite noticed that many bright arcs of light were emitted around his "soul body", and his body gradually became darker.
It seems like the dream is about to wake up!
…
"Huh...huh..., it hurts." Laite broke through the hazy feeling of consciousness, as well as the aches and pains all over his body, and forced himself to wake up from his half-dream and half-awake state, stood up abruptly, and opened his eyes, which were dry and sore.
's eyes.
He felt tears in his eyes at first, and his vision blurred. After he rubbed it with his right hand, what came into his eyes was a dim scene, but covered with the brilliance of the silvery moon.
The room is neither big nor small. Near the two rows of large windows is his large wooden bed. Slender wooden pillars extend upward from the four corners of the bed, supporting a bed board at the top with silver moon patterns carved from it.
From the looks of it, this bed must be expensive, like a palace item.
In addition, at the far end of the room are two rows of cowhide sofas and a round glass coffee table with two guns placed on it. If you look closely, you can see that one is the "Crazy Bear" pistol that Laite carries.
The other was a larger mechanical gun with an extremely complex structure, close to a hand cannon.
Looking around again, there is a wardrobe without any clothes, and a few mahogany chairs arranged restlessly and haphazardly.
Looking up at the wall, Laite also saw crooked metal pipes and two gas lamps that emitted a dim light that was so weak that it was almost negligible.
Where am I? Where am I?
Laite hit his head hard and said quickly.
At this moment, the small door of the room with a Western-style classical style was pushed open, and a familiar face with a dull green shimmer on his head appeared in front of him.
"Brother Laite, you have been in a coma for several days. Brother Xuefeng estimated through divination that you should wake up today. I just felt the fluctuation of the magic power in your body, and when I came in, I saw that you were awake."
Feng said with a very boyish voice, looking at Laite with pure eyes.
"It's you, the Cardinal of the Church of Dark Night, right? If my guess is correct, this should be the camp of the Church of Dark Night, right?" Laite raised the corners of his mouth and said in a disgusted and mocking tone.
"It's the 'Blood Bright' Castle, the camp of our Dark Night Church." Feng nodded and said apologetically:
"I'm sorry, brother Laite, I deceived you. But in fact, we lost people need you to uncover the secret of the 'Daughter of Tool Yuan' and open up the divine realm that truly belongs to us. That..."
Feng lowered his head in embarrassment and looked at the object in his hand.
Following Feng's perspective, Laite discovered that Feng was wearing a gorgeous black tuxedo today, with a red bow on the collar, and the inner shirt was pure white, which looked very much like "Chekavsk City News"
In the photos published some time ago, Vladimirski, the leader of the vampire clan, is dressed in attire.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! And he was holding a tray in his hand, with two red wine glasses on it, which contained a slightly viscous scarlet liquid.
If you guessed correctly, it should be blood!
"What are you holding?" Laite asked first when he saw the wine glass.
"The 'dye' that replenishes your strength... can also be called a 'potion'." Feng replied sincerely.
"Is it blood?" Laite asked in a cold voice.
"Yes." Feng nodded with difficulty, "But..."
"Do you think of me as a lost person?" Laite asked angrily.
All this time, no matter what kind of changes Laite's body has undergone, whether he has magic power, whether his body recovery ability has been extremely enhanced, or even extraordinary things like "Touch of Dark Mystery" and "Red-faced Hain" have appeared.
A strange product, he insists on his identity as a human being.
Therefore, even if he occasionally gets emotional, he will not eat humans or consume blood to ensure his dignity as a human being.
But Feng in front of him held two cups of blood and said they were "dyes" or "potions". This made him feel that Feng was mocking him.
Especially when I was faced with the backlash of the wind at the "front camp", this feeling of disgust suddenly became full.
Feeling the nameless anger burning in his chest, Laite angrily surged the red magic power in his body.
Immediately afterwards, he quickly lifted the quilt, stepped forward, threw up the tray in Feng's hand with his right hand, and pressed his throat with his left hand, forcing him to the wall.
But the strange thing is that Laite's reaction ability seems to have been strengthened. Subconsciously, out of the mentality of protecting expensive items, he used four fingers to smoothly clamp the foot of the wine glass that fell to the ground, and even the scarlet liquid inside
