Chapter 19 Transactions
"Why is it so slow!" James glared at Zach who suddenly appeared in front of him, and pushed Zack's shoulder south, "Quick! They left here twenty minutes ago! Quick!"
Zacra took James's hand away and looked sideways at the gauze on his face, "You, are you alright?"
"Go after them!" James nudged the vampire irritably, "I'm fine, you hurry up and chase them!"
Zach curled the corners of his mouth, pulled up his sleeve, ran his fingers over his wrist, and pressed it on his mouth before James could say more.
James struggled for a moment, realizing that his strength was simply unable to resist, and accepted the vampire's gift with a frown. The lingering pain on the bridge of his nose disappeared, and James pushed Zack's wrist away and tore off the bandage on his face. It has been restored as before.
"I'm all right!" James pinched his nose, "See! Now you can go after it!
Zach waved his hand, turned into an afterimage in James's eyes, and continued southward before the triumphant expression came out.
Moments later, there were no more vampires on Route 27, sandwiched between the woods. James still had the gauze wrapped by Cyrus in his hands, and he touched his intact nose and looked at the dark road, not knowing what he was thinking.
At the end of the woods, buildings have begun to appear, and unlike Barton, there is no such thing as a 'country place' in Newton, and the atmosphere of the city will envelop outsiders after a ten-minute drive. But Zach didn't have to go that deep, he stopped at the edge of the woods, turned west, and saw the waiting pickup truck.
It's been a long time since Zach has set foot outside of Barton, and thanks to the influence of the Central Hidden Alliance, Zach won't be wiped out when he enters Newton, but Zach doesn't have a good impression of the city. Because the influence of the Hidden Alliance is already very weak when it reaches the east side of the Federation. In the eyes of Zach, a former member of the Hidden Alliance, Thoredo, Massa was once a more chaotic place than the western part of the Devil's Feast Alliance.
Zach straightened his wrinkled clothes and knocked on the car door. "It's time to wake up, Walter. ”
Clicking. The two people in the pickup truck got out of the car left and right, one impatient, the other extremely excited.
"Be a qualified friend, introduce, Walter. Zach glanced at Wandel and said to Walter.
Walter tugged at his upper lip and rolled his eyes, how could the two not know each other. It's just not really seen," Wandall, Zach. Zach, Wandel. Then he waved his hand, "You say, I'll go over there!"
The creed of this 'liar's life is probably that curiosity must kill the cat, not asking, not listening, not looking. Pretty good.
Zach looked at Walter, who had already walked away, smiled and shook his head, and looked at Wandel, who was full of anticipation. Reaching out, he opened the rear door.
The two sat in the back seat, and the person who was not in a hurry spoke first. "It's my pleasure to sit with you!" Vandall leaned sideways, so close that he almost lay on top of Zach.
Zach smiled and pushed the shadow man away, "Although there is 'isolation', I can still smell that you may die at any time." Why don't we understand each other and keep our distance. ”
"Ahh
It's normal for people possessed by shadow figures to be hated by vampires. Because death becomes unpredictable, vampires can't tell if food will turn into poison the next second. It's like someone who is allergic to Watson doesn't know if there's peanut butter in the sandwich in front of them.
"I think Walter has explained it to you. Grande is going to help you with things. Zach smiled and looked at the somewhat nervous filmmaker, "Don't be nervous. We've lived together all these years, isn't it peaceful. ”
The filmmaker Wandle with the appearance of Chapman. There was a hint of a twisted demeanor. Sex has little meaning in a race that has neither the ability to reproduce nor the physical form. But apparently he, 'it', retains some of the habits that once were.
"I still can't believe it!After Sbella left, I thought we were all abandoned!" Wandel had an innocent look on his face, "Crowley, she's a tyrant! I hate her!"
Zach raised an eyebrow, "So you're trying to find Sbella Blizzle?"
Wandel hesitated and thought for a moment, "Of course I want to find her too." He looked at the dark window, "I don't think any other city will be better than Barton, it just depends on my luck, if I can get into the middle of the Federation safely, maybe there will be a chance." ”
Zach understood what the shadow man was talking about, that in the eastern part of Massa, where the state of Massa was located, the influence of the Secret Alliance was insufficient. All kinds of alien races are in a relatively free state, the gates of hell are opened, demons enter the Federation, and these free alien races will soon become unfree. Maybe those demons didn't do anything, but in the eyes of these aliens, they were invading tyrants, and Crowley was actually innocent.
"I don't think the Midparts are as good as you think. Zach didn't want to hit this guy, but after Papa came in at midnight, Zach had already heard that the Hidden Alliance in the middle was leaving. plus a variety of small clues, such as Toredo, the lead singer of the band that Zach doesn't know and has a magic feast-style style, and the drug trial of Western Pharmaceutical. Zach already had a vague feeling that the Hidden Alliance might have left.
There was a palpable loss on Wandel's face, "I know, so it's just a chance." He suddenly became agitated again, "But you're willing to help me!
Zach smiled and pulled out a wine bottle, "Alpha's blood." He didn't hand it to the bright-eyed Vander, but swayed, "Do you want it?"
"Yes!"
"This deal. Zach looked at Vandall, whose eyes were shaking with the bottle in his hand, "You're the one who gets the most benefits." Now sue me, what can you do for me?"
"I'll keep the promise I made with you!" Vandall replied very quickly, it seemed that he had already thought about this, "I will not give away any news about the House of Grande!"
Zach smiled and nodded, "That's the most basic, and then what?"
Then ......" Wandel was confused, he really didn't know what he could do for the vampires, which is why he decided that the deal was really just a one-sided help.
But Zach doesn't think so, vampires and werewolves. It's not going to be boring enough to hunt soul aliens everywhere just because they have this ability, so they don't care about these guys in the first place. And this soul alien race will not be okay to be friends with the guys who have the ability to kill themselves, so the two are actually at peace with each other's distance.
It's just that there used to be a couple of winds to restrain these aliens. In line with Anthony and Grande's original intentions, this peace appears more explicit. Right now. Peace remains, as Crowley replaces Sbella. But obviously, Crowley's old strictness wasn't the heart of Vendle, who had to be stocked by Sbella.
Zach didn't think Crowley would be happy to help Vendall escape. So he needed enough reason to balance out his hypocritical guilt.
"And ......," said Wandel, frowning and thinking, hesitantly, "I can, can I help you gather information?"
"I'm listening. Zach nodded in satisfaction and motioned to continue.
Vendall found himself in the right place. Excited, "I see! What Papa said when he came at midnight, the changes that are taking place in the Secret Alliance in the Middle, the Confederacy, and the reason why cremation is popular...... If you want to know this, I can help you out there! I can do it!"
Zach was satisfied, he knew what he wanted to focus on, "There are some little things. Seeing Wandel smile, the vampire believed that such a smart guy should be able to understand what he was trying to say," Crowley. ”
Wandel frowned, hesitating. "I, I kind of don't want to deal with demons. ”
"Not reluctantly. Zach laughed, "But." You know Ryan is still in Grande, so the Windwinds will be back, and I think you'll be with you. You don't want to make your life too sad when you come back. ”
Wandall nodded helplessly.
Why are there such 'little things'? Zach had already sensed that Crowley's situation seemed to be bad.
Initially, Seth was his reaction to finding out that Crowley was a fallen angel, 'the only fallen angel in the Federation', as Seth put it. Then there is Crowley's reluctance to say more about not wanting her soul to be dragged to hell, which is the root cause of this incident of being possessed by the shadowman. Crowley wants souls, but she doesn't want to go through hell. There are also many small signs, such as receiving Constantine preaching, and coming out of hell ahead of time. Crowley's attention to Constantine because of his 'congenital demons'.
Crowley seemed to be preparing for something.
As for the wind's eventual return to Barton City, Zach was just guessing. Because the reason for their departure Zach is not entirely certain, hiding from reporters? No kidding.
"Then we have an agreement?" Zach stopped shaking his hand from the bottle.
"Yes!" Wandel nodded.
"It's going to hurt a little. Zach laughed and slashed his own fingertips with sharp fingers, stained with vampire blood, and stabbed into the chests as Vendall closed his eyes.
The corners of Chapman's forehead twitched, his eyes opened suddenly, and black rolled in his pupils! A hoarse roar just came out, and from his wide open mouth, countless fine black thread-like things rushed out!
If Wandall hadn't escaped before Chapman's healing was complete, he would have hung up.
In the pitch-black carriage, only a faint light penetrated through the front window, and this light was entangled and pushed out of the compartment by the thin black lines that burst out!
Chapman tilted his head, black threads pouring out of his mouth, and his throat tumbled and retched nauseously. But his face was strangely improving, his cheeks, which were originally pale and bruised, began to become ruddy, the puffiness disappeared, the skin became tight, and the muscles of his whole body tensed up because of the exertion. Zach had to move his hand in the other's chest to match the man's writhing.
If you think of the healing process as a reversal of the injury process, you can think that this process is not comfortable.
When the qiē was over, Zach withdrew his fingers, grabbed Chapman's chin, who looked strangely good, but looked prostration, and moved from side to side, looking, and smiled, "Welcome back, Officer Pierce." ”
Then he tapped on the bottle in his hand, and in Chapman's horrified eyes, the threads that were entrenched in the carriage burst out again, and countless tiny threads lifted from the things to which they were attached and rushed into the small bottles!
