Chloe lay straight on the messy floor, her body twitched occasionally, and then became motionless.
The power of light of Nexus was poured into Chloe's body through the blow of the evolved trustor. Richard could clearly feel that the darkness entrenched in the girl's body was gradually fading away. Under the erosion of light,
It fell apart. And the girl's pale face was gradually returning to color, and her complexion became rosy and plump again.
Then her fangs disappeared.
The girl struggled to open her heavy eyelids and was confused for a few seconds before her eyes fell on her mother: "Mom?"
Only then did Aunt Lin come back to her senses: "Chloe? Chloe, are you okay?"
"I... don't know, I feel very faint, like a hangover." She covered her head, "I feel like I had a nightmare... a very bad one.
Nightmare. In the dream, I was bitten by a vampire, and then I turned into a vampire. I felt so hungry and thirsty, and then I remembered that I seemed to pounce on someone..."
Then she noticed the way the two looked at her, as if she suddenly realized something, and couldn't help but froze.
"That's true, right? That's not..."
"Don't think too much. The point is, you're fine." Richard said, "How do you feel now?"
"I'm just a little dizzy and a little uncoordinated...but at least I feel more normal."
Even though she didn't understand what had just happened, Aunt Lin also saw that Richard had used some means to restore her daughter to normal. If Aunt Lin looked at Richard with admiration before, now she almost changed it.
It became awe and worship.
"You...how did you do it?" She asked in surprise, "Is it some kind of qigong? Or..."
Aunt Lin obviously regarded Richard as some kind of hidden master who was hidden from the world. In the blink of an eye, she had already imagined a martial arts world with a long history and passed down from generation to generation for Richard.
Background. Aunt Lin also read Eastern martial arts novels when she was a child. She knew that the masters in the novels all used their internal strength to force out toxins. She felt that what Richard had just done must be similar.
"Uh, not really, actually...well, more or less."
Richard originally wanted to explain, but after thinking about it, he decided to forget it. After all, Ultraman's power of light is more difficult to explain, so he would just let Aunt Lin think of it as an internal skill. It might be okay for her.
It's easier to accept.
As a result, Aunt Lin suddenly became excited. She couldn't usually see it, but it turned out that this aunt still had the soul of a martial arts fan living in her heart. She immediately pulled Richard and asked him about his apprenticeship, what school he was in, and what he used.
What skills are there, is there any sect that inherits them...
Richard said yes, my sect is from the m78 Kingdom of Light, and is taught by Liao Ya. He is good at the "Heaven and Earth Unparalleled Cross Storm" technique. One blow can break mountains, rivers, and shake mountains...
But of course he didn't say anything. As a result, Aunt Lin didn't ask any more questions and just nodded with an "I understand" expression. In her opinion, Richard's apprenticeship must be the kind of person in the novel who doesn't care about the world.
It is also appropriate for an expert outside the world to keep things secret.
The girl escaped the disaster and was also extremely grateful for Richard's intervention. The pair of watery eyes staring at him when she sent him out made him feel a little uncomfortable. Richard refused because Chloe still needed to rest.
Aunt Lin left their house with an invitation to dinner.
But to be honest, Richard actually didn't know that he could do this before. If you think about it carefully, the light of Nexus in the original work does have the special function of "purification" and can be said to be the natural enemy of darkness.
However, he could feel that this might be because not long had passed since Chloe was bitten. She had not had time to be completely infected and transformed into a vampire, so she could turn back to a human only by purifying the dark parts of her body. If time delayed,
Even longer, when Chloe has completely turned into a vampire physically and mentally, I am afraid that even using Ultraman's light will only be able to destroy her and her body together, leaving no chance of saving her.
In any case, at least this experience proved that vampires are real, and Cathy’s story is indeed reliable. The vampires have always existed in this world, living in the shadow of human society, just like living in a crack. Now that we know the truth,
Richard felt that it became the responsibility of their newspaper to publish this matter. He could not completely eliminate this race from the entire world, but at least people might be wary after reading the report, and maybe
Someone will be saved by this.
So now the question becomes - how to prove to people that vampires are real?
It is not that no one has ever noticed the existence of vampires in the past, but even if the victims report it to the police or the media, such things will only be laughed off. The topic of vampires is often related to those who "xxx suddenly discovered UFO"
"Rumors like this are of the same nature. Everyone looks at it happily and forgets it, but no one takes it seriously.
But Richard felt that proving the existence of vampires was actually not that complicated.
Don’t they say seeing is believing? Then why not just catch a few alive ones? It’s not that difficult anyway...
Not to mention a few vampires, if Richard really has the energy and patience to fight these blood-sucking creatures, it is not impossible for him to wipe out the entire vampire group in the city over time.
It is not difficult to see from the original work that the capable people in Nexus have extremely strong sensory superpowers. In the TV works, they are mainly shown to have the ability to perceive alien beasts. The capable people are often among the hundreds of thousands.
People from inside and outside can sense the vibration waves when the alien beast appears, so they can rush to the scene to fight as soon as possible.
Through the last battle with the alien beast Pedron, Richard found that he had also awakened this kind of perception ability, and it seemed that it was more than that. He had just come into contact with the energy in Chloe's body that gradually transformed her into a vampire.
After the darkness, Richard felt that the light in his body seemed to have remembered the characteristics of this darkness. Although this darkness was too weak compared to the vibration waves of alien beasts, he seemed to be able to vaguely detect it within a certain range.
to the existence of this power.
For example, right now, he felt that there seemed to be a plurality of similar targets somewhere to the southwest of him, and the locations were relatively concentrated. If his perception was correct, then Richard speculated that there might be a vampire stronghold there.
Yes, the quantity should be quite a lot.
Richard thought for a while, and first sent Jessica a text message that she would go back later and asked her to fix today's dinner by herself, and then he started to move towards that location.
Just tonight, he was going to catch some live vampires.
