"I've always felt that plants are the real masters of this world, and that all other life forms are just passing by. "Yuka reached out and stroked the hair that hung down in front of her eyes, and said slowly, "People always think that plants have no mind and can only exist as food, playthings, or materials, and they are all wrong.www.biquge.info ”

"Plants are nature's reflections on itself, they witness everything, they know everything, but they are silent. Unless ......"

"You're willing to step into their world," Yuka smiled, "just like me." ”

"Wow, you're great!" Nalan clapped his hands, praised her very perfunctorily, and said:

"Anyway, we know where the enemy is now, hurry up and ......"

"Idiot!"

Before he could finish speaking, Yuxiang's slap had already smeared on his face. This palm was a face of ketchup, which made Nalan Dusk's eyes black and he almost lay down.

"Hey!" After a brief dizziness, Nalan covered his face and protested, "I'm complimenting you this time!"

"I'll take care of you, your attitude makes me angry anyway. Yuxiang hugged her arms, turned her face away, and looked like a child humming and chirping. Seeing her virtue, Nalan didn't know how to complain, so he could only ask helplessly:

"Okay, good, good, what attitude should I use to keep you from getting angry, my Majesty?"

"Don't talk, don't have an attitude, don't breathe, die!"

"Ah, I'm dead!"

Nalan Twilight did as she requested, and fell to the ground, rolling her eyes, spitting out her tongue, and stopping her breathing and heartbeat, and immediately became a corpse prop that could only appear in a funny short film.

Undoubtedly, this is also one of the results of his abuse of his physical abilities. For a race like vampires, which is difficult to define life and death, it is much more difficult to "live" than to die.

"Hmph!" Yuka snorted coldly, ignoring him. After a while, she saw that Nalan still refused to move, as if she wanted to play this mentally retarded corpse to the end, so she raised her right leg with a look of disgust and stomped on his stomach.

She wore a pair of brown high-heeled leather boots, the suede kind, the kind with pointed heels. At this step, the heel of the boot sank deep into Nalan Twilight's stomach, and the feeling was indescribable.

"I'm my aunt's second uncle!" Nalan let out a long, meaningless scream, and the blood in his mouth spurted almost three meters high.

All his memories from his birth to the present for more than 1,200 years rolled in a whole circle in front of his eyes in an instant. Through these fragments before his death, he discovered: He has only suffered two of the three major killer weapons of women, high heels, handbags, and nails.

Why don't you give her a bag when you have a birthday, and then tell her, "I bought you a bag", so that you can eat all three killer weapons and ascend to heaven without regrets.

But you have to ask about Yuxiang's birthday first!

"Let's go, nerd, how long do you want to lie here?" Yuka yelled at him, looking down.

"I'm really dead now!" Nalan clutched his belly and lay on the ground, still refusing to get up...... No, I'm afraid he won't be able to get up for a while.

"Oh, really?" Yuka smiled and lifted her leg again, "Then why don't I give you a massage to improve blood circulation?"

She probably meant "rubbing (rubbing) (on the ground) to promote blood circulation (outside the body)".

"No, no. "Nalan Twilight looked like a spring on her back, and it bounced off the ground like lightning, and it looked very funny.

"Are you ready to go?"

"No, no, no, you wait a minute!" Nalan Yu wiped a handful of blood foam from his mouth, and stretched out his hand to signal Youxiang to stay.

"What? you want to play a little longer?" Yuuka smiled grimly again—it was very much her style.

"No, this time it's serious!" Nalan Yu hurriedly explained, "Listen to me, I have a plan that I need your cooperation. ”

"Oh? What's the plan, tell me about it?"

"What you need to do is very simple, after you meet that vampire who is a demon in the shadows, please be sure to restrain your killing intent and don't make a move. ”

Nalan Yu originally wanted to say, "Don't make a dead move", but after thinking about it, she felt that as long as Youxiang made a move, it was basically a one-hit kill, and there was no question of the severity of the attack, so she changed her words and told her to "don't shoot".

"Why?" Yuka was puzzled by his request, "Didn't we go kill him in the first place?"

"Yes, we will kill him sooner or later, but not now. Nalan twilight chuckled wickedly, "In my plan, this man is at best a bait, and the bait has to be placed far enough away to catch a big fish, isn't it?"

Somewhere in the Nameless Hill, there is a dark room about ten square meters in size.

The walls of the chamber were fifty centimeters of steel plates, and the completely sealed joints made it a huge iron coffin. In addition to corpses, there are probably only legendary undead creatures that can stay in it for a long time, right?

Like vampires or something.

"A bunch of idiots, rubbish, just good for nothing!"

A slightly fat man sat in the dark room and cursed at the crystal ball on the small square table in front of him.

The surface of the crystal ball glowed with a ghostly light, and a bloody picture reflected on it: a mountain of rotten limbs and severed arms in the dimly lit tunnel, and a number of men and women with white hair, animal ears, and wolf tails on their backs were standing beside the mountain of corpses, torches and knives in hand, trying to deal with the aftermath.

In addition to the conspicuous crystal ball, there was an intricate magic circle drawn in white chalk on the small table, and a table of black gemstone fragments—they were all complete gems, but they were no longer so.

"What to do, what to do, who will tell me what to do!"

The man, the manipulator of the living dead, the commander-in-chief of the front, Nikolai, was now in a state of panic in his own control room.

His plan was perfect: he infiltrated Gensokyo without knowing it, then set up the portal according to the boss's instructions, and then let the walking corpse and vampire troops go around collecting the blood of the youkai, and then transport it out along the tunnel connecting to the outside world, and when everything was done, the soles of his feet were greased and slipped. Everything was going so smoothly, as long as he collected a few more dings, which was probably the blood of two or three youkai, he would be able to make a difference.

He would then be able to receive a huge "reward" and live a decent life without any worries for hundreds of years...... But why did things turn out the way they were?

Yesterday, a small group of humans and youkai discovered the tunnel hidden in the deepest part of the Enchanted Forest, and he immediately sent a zombie army to intercept it, but it failed and suffered heavy losses. But that's nothing, as long as the portal is closed at the right time, those people can be isolated from the outside world forever, and it's a hundred. He still has a lot of troops left, and the task can still be completed on time.

But one of the people in the gang, a white wolf Tengu, did not go out with her companions, but ran back to the Yokai Mountain, and brought reinforcements from the Tengu the next day, and then the scene in front of his eyes appeared.

The zombie forces waiting in the tunnel were all wiped out, the vampire backup was killed and wounded, and the remaining survivors escaped Gensokyo through the portal, no longer under his command. It was only a matter of time before the other zombies scattered throughout Gensokyo were picked up and killed by the Tengu Patrol.

Obviously, he was only one small step away from success, but this small step was now even more difficult than ascending to the sky - even if he could collect all the blood in a limited time, it would be impossible to take it out, because the only entrance and exit had been sealed by the tengu.

Nikolai casually took out a small bag of blood from the box next to him, tore open the bag, and sucked it in a big gulp. This kind of behavior is like sitting down and drinking cold water to extinguish the fire when a human is angry, at least his mood is indeed much more stable than just now.

"Whew...... Calm down, I have to be calm," his eyes were bloodshot, and he persuaded himself in an almost mad tone, hoping to regain his usual state of mind, "My strongest weapon is the brain, yes, the brain. Unlike those fools who only know how to show off power, I fight with wit, and to be calm, you have to be calm......"

"What should I do? Why don't I just run back and tell the boss that the mission has failed? Regardless of whether he wants reinforcements? No, I will definitely be killed on the spot. ”

"Or just run away? No, no, no, how can you hide from the people of the 'Tepes' family!"

"Rush out and collect blood in person? No, no, no, this is looking for death. How could I possibly beat those monsters, after all, my greatest strength is intelligence...... If wisdom doesn't work...... Ah, damn it!"

He craned his neck and roared, a roar that would have been heard by the people outside if the chamber had been a few centimeters shallower.

"In the end, it's all the fault of that traitor who blames Goro! And those vampires who eat dry food, they are all traitors and scum!" he cursed, "If these people don't escape, how can my plan, my perfect plan, fail!"

His voice trembled, just like his body. Everything in this room is on the verge of crumbling, and with every second that passes is one step closer to death.

It's nothing more than the difference between being executed by one's own boss and being caught and beheaded by the enemy, in the end, it is impossible to escape death.

"By the way, I didn't think of that!" Nikolai patted his head, "I still have this!"

He pulled out a purple gem from his pocket, the only and last gem he had ever received from his boss.

At the same time, it is also the most powerful of all gemstones.

"Once you can use it, you only have one chance, but if you can seize this opportunity......

In his mind, a new, more evil plan was constantly fermenting.

Unfortunately, he no longer had the opportunity to put this plan into practice.

"Boom!"

The sound of the sky cracking was completely unexpected, so much so that when a large hole was made in the roof, and two figures landed in the sunlight at the entrance of the hole, he was still there, as if nothing had anything to do with him.

What happened? Who are these two people? How did they get here? Why did they find me...... A large series of questions came to his mind, confusing his thinking.

"I take the liberty of asking, Youxiang," Nalan dusted off his body and said, "How much force did you use with that punch just now?"

"Thirty percent. ”

"And how hard do you use when you hit me?"

"Fifty percent. ”

"You're going too far!"
