Chapter XXXVIII: The Bloodstained Ghost II
On the battlefield of Bucharest, the yellow sand cut like a sharp sword on the armor of men.
"The fire, it's so hot, it looks like it's going to roast my blood......"
"I have killed countless people in my life, and it turns out that ...... Is that how it feels to die......"
"But...... Unwilling to ...... There was blood in front of me...... But I can't...... Go to pierce ...... Let them look at the crimson earth beneath their feet and twist with fear......"
"That's what it is...... Is the end of the murderer ......? ”
Under the light of the rising sun, the spear that supported the man's body stood, but the man's body had already fallen in a pool of blood.
News was circulating that Vlad III, Count of Wallachia, had been killed in battle.
The Catholic citizens lamented and lamented, and the Orthodox citizens cheered and rejoiced, but there was indeed a layer of gloom in the hearts of all of them: a wise monarch who could lead us was gone, and who could stop the madmen of the Ottoman Empire in the future?
Naturally, the Turks reached out to the country, which had been reduced to a scorched earth, but since then, creepy things have started to happen.
There are constant disappearances of Turks, and the number of Turks who have lost their minds and taken revenge on the Orthodox Christians is decreasing, and often they met together at the execution ground yesterday and cheered together, and tomorrow they will never see that face again. Everyone realized that it was wrong, but no one dared to admit it.
Until the night of a lunar eclipse, the red moon rises, and the bats that are not common in the city are like black shadows with flashing points of light in the moonlight.
The next morning, the most unacceptable thing happened.
In the center of the city, there are hundreds of dried corpses piled up!
The skin was not elastic at all, and the only wound was at the artery in the neck, but not a single drop of blood came out of those two holes.
Pile up the hills with corpses.
Acting like a demon, the entire vast Ottoman Empire was overrun by panic in an instant that night.
I don't know when, a creepy name began to circulate among the folk:
[Dracula].
Devils who indulge in sipping blood, living dead who walk in the dark.
However, there is no doubt that it was the man, the count, who had a deep hatred for the Turks, who returned.
Since then, although there is no longer such a tragic world as mountains of corpses, there will always be a few skins that have been drained of blood on the night of every new moon or lunar eclipse.
The congregants gave out garlic, holy water, and crosses, but these were just deceptions on their own.
Although it was just a rumor among magicians, Xingyu was 100% sure that it was true, from the moment she saw the statue just now.
Cards are powerful, but they are also difficult to control, and there are many unruly diehards, not only the [tower] of unknown ability, but also [the demon].
The ancestor never used this card, and it is said that it was not recorded because it did not match the family magic, but Xingyu did use it himself.
Ever since Xingyu got the Luo card, every crescent moon night, she would feel her mouth dry inexplicably, even if she drank too much water, it was useless. Until one crescent night after the bloodbath of the church, she accidentally bit her tongue in anxiety, and a little blood flowed out, but she didn't feel any pain.
Most of the red blood cells are made up of iron, and the taste is salty and fishy, and there is a smell of rust, however, Xingyu at that time only felt sweet, and couldn't wait to swallow his throat, like a vein of clear spring shuttling through the desert, so mellow and sweet that people can forget all their troubles.
That night, Xingyu rushed to the city hospital, purchased dozens of packets of blood without suspicion in a hypnotic way, and drank it all in one go when he got home, completely ignoring Ta Yu, who was unable to sleep due to the smell of blood.
"Star, I know that perfect people tend to have quirks, but please don't use raw blood for supper at home! Isn't this the same with vampires? Ta Yu, dressed in pajamas, walked out of the room dissatisfied, holding a funny pillow purchased online, just like the protagonist of a domestic funny comic.
"Vampires? ......" Xingyu, who was about to go out again to buy blood, stopped, as if realizing something, reached out and fumbled in his pocket, and pulled out a blood-colored Luo card.
That card is glowing - that's the sign of its activation!
Launched unconsciously!
Xingyu immediately realized that something was wrong, and after controlling his desire to suck blood, he put Tayu back in bed and went to the basement of his home.
After a night of research, Xingyu finally got the answer she thought was reasonable.
"[Demons] are cards that only activate under certain conditions, which can be a crescent moon or a lunar eclipse as it stands. It is used by the object, after the previous events, Ta Yu sealed a demon in my body, and part of [the demon] is already on my body, so all the effects will appear on me who is most suitable for it. As it stands, its unconscious activation will turn me into a vampire, but all it takes is to consume blood to prevent accidents. ”
And now, Xingyu has sensed the connection behind these events, [the demon] will turn her into a vampire, and the lunar eclipse is the condition for its activation, and the mountains of corpses piled up under the red moon...... The answer to all your questions is in this Turkey!
