"Cough, cough, cough!" A figure fell from the space hole as black as a swamp. It looked like a little boy, but it was not in satisfactory condition at this time. There was a huge knife extending from the left shoulder to the base of the right leg on its upper body.
There were scars, and blue blood overflowed from the wounds, dyeing the ground blue.
The Saxir species is a parasitic species among demons. It likes to parasitize on various creatures or magic objects to absorb magic power. Because of its unique parasitic characteristics, it is especially good at disguise. However, the race is generally low in strength and is known as
Parasites.
"Vampire!!!" Enduring the pain on its body, its red eyes were full of hatred and anger.
With code-level strength, he can be regarded as one of the best among demons, but he still suffered a lot when facing elder-level vampires. In the end, he even had to use the method of detonating the earth vein gate to escape.
He wasted twenty years of preparation.
It is an alien species among the Saxir species. After growing to the level of the Codex, he can even parasitize on the flowing earth veins to absorb the magic power of the earth veins. This is unbelievable to anyone, and it is precisely for this reason that it has been subjected to magic.
A joint pursuit between the Association and the Exorcists.
Twenty years ago, it escaped from the exorcists and finally hid in that city for nearly twenty years. However, these twenty years were not spent in vain. By chance, it obtained the access to the Earth Vein Gate.
The key has the opportunity to enter the earth's veins. As long as it can absorb the magic power in the earth's veins, no one among the exorcists can compete with it.
However, everything happened unexpectedly at the last moment. An elder vampire who woke up from nowhere broke the plan he had prepared for twenty years, and all his forbearance and preparation for twenty years came to nothing.
This almost made it go crazy. Since he couldn't get it, no one else could get the magic power of the earth veins. So, when it destroyed the gate of the earth veins, it cut a hole in the river channel of the earth veins, allowing the originally pure energy of the earth veins to leak out.
.
"Just wait, when I regain my strength, I will take you away from me and take you back with profit!"
It is very weak now. Due to the forced absorption of vampire magic, all the organs in its body have been displaced and even partially damaged. If it were not for the demon's powerful vitality, it might have died on the spot.
"Who's there!?" Suddenly, it looked suddenly in one direction.
From behind the wall, a timid head emerged, a little girl with a ponytail and freckles on her face.
"Well... why are you in my yard?"
A smile reappeared on the devil's face. It licked its lips and looked at the girl as if looking at food.
"Are you, are you injured?"
It glanced at the blue blood flowing out of its body, nodded to the girl and said: "Yes, I think I will need your help..."

"Mr. Esther, is the food not to your liking?"
Wells looked at Esther, who was holding the cutlery in his hands but hesitated to do so, and wondered. In front of Esther was a plate of foie gras, sprinkled with expensive seasonings, and the table carefully prepared by the chef.
Food, this meal is definitely not cheap.
However, these are not too much of a burden for Wells. He has a wide network of contacts and knows the chef of this French restaurant.
Esther came back to his senses and said, "No, these are so delicious that I can't bear to eat them."
"Haha, food is just waiting for people to enjoy it. If Mr. Esther doesn't taste it, then they will lose the meaning of their existence."
"That makes sense." Esther responded with a smile.
It's just that he doesn't like eating animal offal.
"Mr. Esther, I want to solemnly express my gratitude." Wells said seriously: "If you hadn't saved me, I wouldn't be sitting here now."
"Don't take it to heart. Although I am a vampire, I still have a kind heart. This has nothing to do with race."
"Hahaha, yes, it has nothing to do with race."
Of course, these were just polite words from Esther. In fact, he himself didn’t know what Wells was thanking him for. Cognitive impairment had messed up Wells’ memory, and even Esder didn’t know what Wells was thanking him for.
Erls imagined what happened that night.
But this is good, it saves a lot of pain, and it is the last tenderness that Beina left for Wells.
"By the way, I have something for you." Esther said.
"Something?" Wells was a little confused.
Esther didn't say anything, but took out a simple key from his clothes and placed it on the table with exquisite patterns engraved on it.
"key?"
"Yes, she is yours now."
Wells thought for a while and said, "This should be the key to the ley line."
Esther nodded.
"I'm sorry, I can't accept such an important thing." Wells refused. He didn't think he had the ability to protect the leyline key. Instead of leaving it to an ordinary person like himself, Esther was more suitable to keep it.
"Don't get me wrong, she is no longer the key to the leyline. Now, it is just an ordinary key." Esther explained.
"If that's the case..." Wells looked at the key, and a bitter emotion suddenly appeared in his heart, making him feel a little tight in his chest.
"Okay, then I'll accept it." Since Esther has said that this is an ordinary key, Wells naturally has no worries, and this key always feels somewhat connected to him.
After the meal, Wells said goodbye to Est. Est had no plans to stay outside anymore and was ready to go home and continue to recover his damaged soul.
Walking on the street, Esther looked at the various people passing by. Naturally, the leakage of the magic power of the earth's veins could not escape his perception. There were more demons appearing on the street during the day, and they were hiding among the crowds, waiting for opportunities to move.
Esther has no doubt that the police in the city will be very busy in the coming days.
He is not worried about Lilina. These small demons pose no threat to Lilina, who has been transformed into a vampire. They are mostly demons living at the bottom of the city. They are not a powerful race. They even say that they see Lilina.
Na will walk around her.
"Ah, my bag!"
An adult man, who covered his face tightly, knocked away a woman walking on the street and snatched her wallet.
No one would have expected the robbery before it happened.
The adult male is undoubtedly a demon. In Ested's view, without the restraint of the demon, and with the leakage of the earth's veins, these demons living in the city without a leader will become lawless.
The demonic forces in the city will undergo a major reshuffle.
However, Esther had no intention of getting involved in these trivial matters. After lamenting that the world was declining, Esther shook his head and left.
