Chapter 255: Burning
If it's just the phenomenon of rapid wound healing, it doesn't mean anything, some transcendents have the ability to make their own or other people's wounds heal quickly, of course, even if they have this ability, the healing speed is too terrifying.
Catherine also thinks that Selena is a transcendent with super-healing abilities at first, but by all indications, things don't seem to be that simple.
"If it's a vampire, garlic or a cross or something like that should be useful, right?" said one of the villagers, "Don't you have crosses on you?"
Catherine glared at the speaker, "Garlic is useless, the cross is useful, if it is nailed to her heart, but the reason for the effect is not what you think, but after nailing into the heart, it can prevent the healing of her heart, and if you want to kill her completely, you can only cut off her head!"
"My daughter is just sick, she's not a vampire......" Daisy's tears were already running down, "please take her to the hospital......"
The villagers couldn't bear it, but the situation was more bizarre than they had imagined, and they didn't know which side to help...... What's more, these nuns won't listen to them either.
"Take her away, and leave all those you don't want to see, or turn around. Catherine waved her hand, and the villagers dragged Daisy back to the gymnasium.
Daisy seemed to have left her body with her soul and was left with an empty shell, her tearful eyes staring at her daughter until she couldn't see it.
Ron sighed, "Does it have to be like this?"
"I don't want to, but she's not a human anymore, she's a beast, she's a demon, she only has fresh flesh in her eyes, and letting her go will hurt more people. Catherine lifted her sword, "Don't you need to dodge?"
"I ...... I want to see it. Ron knew that no one could stop Catherine, but he had to see the end or he would regret it for the rest of his life.
Catherine said no more, drew a cross on her forehead, shoulders and breast, closed her eyes and prayed silently to God.
The sword flashed.
Selena, or the girl who used to be Selena, has a different head.
Ron watched this scene with wide eyes, and at that moment, he saw the blood gushing out of Selena's neck as if it had a life of its own, and wanted to pull the separated head and pull her head back to her neck, but the power of blood was limited after all, and her head still fell to the ground.
What made him even more frightened was that Selena's head didn't seem to die immediately after hitting the ground, her mouth was still stubbornly open and closed, and her eyes were even more bulging, as if she wanted to suck fresh flesh at the last moment to save her life.
Her headless corpse was still struggling, trying to break free and pick up her head and put it back around her neck......
Catherine raised her sword and put it down, she was supposed to be cut in half again by a sword, but when she thought of the poor mother just now, her heart softened a little, and she should leave the whole body of her daughter for that mother...... At least the whole head.
After a full two or three minutes.
"That was ......," Ron swallowed, speechless.
"The vitality of the vampire is extremely tenacious, this woman is only transformed, if it is the ancestor of the vampire......" Catherine's expression flashed a rare trace of fear.
"The Patriarch of the Vampires?" Ron startled, "You mean Selena is not the only one?"
"Of course. Catherine scanned the surrounding forest, "I suspect that some of the missing villagers in the village have been killed, drained of blood, and some have been transformed into vampires. ”
"Yes...... But aren't vampires legendary creatures? Obviously a fictional species......" Ron still couldn't understand what he saw and heard tonight.
Catherine was silent for a moment, then shook her head and said: "The vampire you see is not the same creature as the legendary vampire, we can only guess that the ancestor of the vampire should be an extremely powerful transcendent, she has some kind of ability, which can change the physiological functions of the victims, so that their normal lifespan of several decades has been greatly compressed, replaced by extremely vigorous vitality and self-healing ability, as well as a thirst for fresh flesh and blood." ”
"Borrow a lighter. She held out her hand to him, "You should have a lighter on you, right?"
Ron pulled out a lighter and handed it to her, a one-time bargain.
He doesn't smoke, but when he hunts in the wild for a long time, a lighter is a must, and he can't drill wood to make a fire every time he needs to make a fire.
She lit a wooden stick with a lighter and threw it to the ground.
"The life of a normal person should burn slowly and orderly like this, until the end of the year, when the wind candle is slowly extinguished, turning into a handful of ashes, and the transformed vampire ......"
She threw the lighter next to the stick and smashed it with her sword.
As soon as the gasoline in the lighter came into contact with the flames, the fire instantly increased by a hundredfold, turning the entire wooden stick into a bright ball of fire, illuminating Ron's frightened and terrified face.
"It's like this. ”
After ordinary people are transformed into vampires, it is like awakening extraordinary abilities, their strength and speed are greatly enhanced, and the body's healing ability has made a terrifying leap, from mortal to superhuman, which is reflected in the physiological data is the increase in body temperature and shortness of breath, because it takes a lot of oxygen to burn life.
Basically, the transformed vampires don't live long, during which they will desperately crave fresh flesh to make up for the loss of life, their thirst for flesh is unlimited, but even if they get enough flesh, it will be difficult for them to last long, because their life is depleted much faster than the rate at which flesh is replenished, a veritable "drop in the bucket".
What's even more terrifying is that some of the transformed vampires will lose their minds and become the walking dead, but a small number of transformed vampires can still maintain a certain level of sanity.
When Ron heard this, he suddenly thought that Selena had the opportunity to attack Daisy who was closer to her just now, but she chose to bite Jason who was a little farther away, he didn't feel anything just now, but when he thought about it carefully, could it be that Selena also had a trace of sanity, so she didn't choose to attack her mother?
In addition, Daisy has not been hiding in an underground shelter with everyone for the past few days, and has been looking for her daughter outside, everyone thought that she would definitely be killed by monsters, but they didn't expect her to be alive, maybe this is also because Selena is avoiding her with the only remaining shred of reason......
He looked down at Selena's head and sighed.
Rest in peace, poor girl, and may your soul ascend to heaven.
However, now is not the time to feel sorry for Selena, the dead are long gone, and now they need to worry more about their own safety.
