When the Southern District police came to inquire again, Zach was clearing the road with Charlie outside the front door of Grande. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info belongs to the kind that is so boring that you have to find something to do.

There was nothing to worry about, the police said that they were just going to go through a procedure, Zach didn't know him, and only asked the police when they were going to return Sam's body and pointed it out to Old Hank. The other party didn't insist on talking to Zack, it should be James who accepted Zack's suggestion, and the case followed Hank Sr.

However, old Hank didn't seem to bother to talk to the police, so he casually pointed it out to an employee, and he went to the cemetery to the west to find other employees. Is it to explain something, Zach doesn't know and doesn't want to care, and there's nothing wrong with keeping a distance from each other's lives. Zach is more worried about Cyrus now, this guy didn't take leave today, and he didn't come to work.

If Sem had remained human, Zach would probably have asked Sem to call Cyrus' house and ask about it. If Benjamin answered the phone, Zach didn't have to talk to Benjamin, and the tangled emotions were left to Sam to face. But Sem is not human anymore. Zach himself didn't want to make the call.

So, Where is Sam?

"Need help?, Mrs. Quinn?" said Charlie, and then Mrs. Quinn equaled Muen.

"Need ......" Mu En was struggling to clear the road in front of his house, slightly awkward, "Just call me Mu En." ”

Charlie went to help. Zach only nodded over there for a moment, out of not wanting to be called a vampire ghost by Muen's son.

But it reminded Zach of one thing, "Sem, what was the 'tea bag' she gave to Matthew and Charlie the day before yesterday to help Muen clear the road?"

"It was her gift to Matthew. Sam replied, "A preservative." ”

"What to save. ”

"During non-full moon cycles, werewolves' combat abilities are limited. Only Alpha can use Alpha Skins and exert combat abilities, and then there is Alpha's blood relay in the Alpha Skin state. "Before, when Benjamin and Matthew were at Newton Comic Con, when they encountered wolves, "Alpha temporarily injected blood into the wolf pack members, so that the wolves could temporarily obtain Alpha's skin at the same time, which was a semi-transformed state, and gain the power to fight." "At that time, the other wolf pack used this technique, and Benjamin also used it, but the other wolf pack was just the whole alpha skin, and Benjamin made Matthew also become a wolf. The two wolves picked a group of half-wolves and tied the fight, giving Eve, who had just arrived at Barton at the time, a chance to be smart.

"What about the tea bag that can keep Alpha's blood, giving the wolf pack members the opportunity to use Alpha's abilities at any time without Alpha's command?"

"Yes. ”

Zach frowned, although he had already said the conclusion, there was still something he didn't understand, "I thought that Alpha's ability to let his wolves transform with him was ready to use. ”

"No, only the blood of the wolf's body can stimulate the transformation state of the werewolf. Werewolf human form blood doesn't work. Sem hesitated, "It's the werewolf's secret. It's just that every werewolf battle starts with Alpha first unfolding the Alpha skin, and then passing the blood. Alpha is defined as the leader of the werewolves, and rightfully so, let the werewolves keep this secret, which is actually very obvious. You recall that no werewolf has ever attacked before Operation Alpha, it was always Alpha who took the lead. ”

Zach recalled. Tut. It's really very obvious, and when it's revealed, the reason is so clear, "The only function of the werewolf's human form is to bind the soul that has died, that is, the soul that has been transformed into a wolf's body." The blood of the werewolf in human form is, in every sense, an inferior version of the blood of a vampire that has been castrated with countless knives, whether it is self-healing or restraint against the soul alien race...... The power of the werewolf only exists in the transformed wolf body and the temporarily borrowed alpha skin. ”

"You're not right to think so, in terms of the restraint of the soul alien race, werewolves, even the blood in human form, are stronger than vampires. Sam retorted...... It should be said that it is corrected, "The restraint of vampire blood on the soul alien race is mainly in corrosion. The blood of vampires corrupts souls. The restraint of werewolf blood on the soul alien race is a bondage. You know very well what the werewolf's fighting method is against the soul alien race, which is to eat, wait for the full moon, and be digested by the wolf body. ”

Uh, what is the way vampires fight against aliens? It's blood.

Okay, Zach admitted, "So werewolf blood is countless levels higher than vampires in binding souls." ”

"It's not so much high as absolute. Even if the soul dies, it is still bound, and this is the proof. You have to admit that no one knows for sure what the state of the soul is when it dies, disappearing like a geist in an unconscious way, and Papa uses a werewolf midnight to show the world the posture of a dead soul. Uh, at least one. "Werewolves turned wolves after all being affected by Gangaro's blood, and Sem just didn't want to die.

Zach doesn't like to listen to topics that obviously tend to praise Papa Midnight's greatness, "Back to our topic, Muen gave the preservative. ”

"Oh. Whether theoretically or practically, the blood of the wolf's body can only appear in the full moon cycle of this world, when the alpha becomes a wolf, and when the alpha skin is used. "This is a fact, at other moments, werewolves are all human forms, that is, the blood that absolutely binds the ability of the soul," not only is there a limit to the time it appears, but there is also a limit to the time limit for which it can work. To put it simply, the blood given by the alpha in the wolf body or the alpha skin can be used for a limited time. Sam hesitated a little again, but said anyway, "I don't know if you have ever calculated the length of time Benjamin has used alpha skins at a time in all the time you have lived with Benjamin." Sam added, "Before, don't count what happened after Benjamin got the spice. ”

"Werewolf's secret again?" Zach pursed his lips, but seriously recalled, "In the early days on the battlefield, I did the math. Probably the longest time was a week. ”

"A week, do you think it's a long time? ”

"I don't feel anything, and I'm not his enemy. Zach was blunt.

"Well, that's the limit. Normally, alpha is able to maintain the time limit of alpha skin at a time. After all, it was an ability forcibly borrowed by Alpha, and the real power was a wolf body. ”

"Not true. Zach denied affirmatively, "I've seen much longer, during the colonial wars." A full month of alpha skin, then seamlessly connected to the full moon cycle of three days of the complete wolf form. ”

"During the colonial wars. Sem's voice suddenly became distant, unreal, "It was still a time when werewolves and wizards were like a family. "I feel like I was born four centuries late." ”

Zach patted his chest, "Trust me, you don't want to." Go on. ”

"Yes. Wizards, as you should have already thought, including the inclusion of alpha skins, wizards have a way to extend the time that werewolves can use wolf bodies. Sem paused, "Four centuries ago, it was Papa Midnight leading the Indians. This is the premise of Zack's thinking, and then, "In my opinion, whether it is the spice that Benjamin uses now, John makes using Papa's Midnight's research, or Muen's gift to Matthew, it is used by Papa Midnight to help the werewolves fight, well, abilities, witchcraft, potions, I'm not sure what they are, in short, it's a re-study of the way Papa Midnight used it." ”

Zach was receptive to the statement, "I'm not sure about Munn's tea bag, but John's spices are definitely better than Papa Midnight's method of strengthening werewolves." "Benjamin can use the wolf body at any time while he is conscious, and the alpha skin has been eliminated by Benjamin. Zach didn't want to, but he had to give John a hand. Although this guy has already left Patton.

"Nope. "Sem is not trying to refute Zach's praise of John, but to praise another," said Munn's tea bag. Zach kept saying this, and Sem could only accept it, "Stronger than spices." I haven't had time to study it in detail, but as far as I can see, it can maintain the alpha blood that can transform ordinary werewolves at any time, regardless of the time limit of its effect. That is, as long as the blood of the alpha wolf body is obtained, it can be used unlimitedly. Spices are powerful individuals, and Muen's tea bags are to allow a group of werewolves to gain power, regardless of whether the alpha exists or not, which one you say is stronger. ”

Zach squinted at Muen, who was constantly thanking Charlie for helping clear the way, "And she gave Matthew such a dangerous thing." ”

"You can't blame him, it's probably an old habit, seeing a werewolf with no alpha living in the middle of a bunch of vampires and feeling like she had to do something, basically that's what she used to be all her life. But, you don't have to think about it, she didn't explain the role of this thing, and she didn't let Matthew give it to me to study, but she informed us that we knew. ”

While we were chatting, a car that I hadn't seen in a long time drove by. Amilia's car, a little slow, after all, the road conditions are really bad, and stopped in front of Muen.

Emilia got out of the car, glanced at Zack, rolled her eyes and didn't want to pay attention to her expression at all, and said to Muen, "I think it must be inconvenient for you to go out today, so I simply came over." ”

With a grateful look on her face, Muen pulled Emilia into the house.

This is probably the counseling that Pochi Quinn said earlier. Let Mu En get rid of her previous bad habits.

Zach didn't want to continue to close Muen's side, "Tea bags, you can leave the method to Matthew when you finish researching, and let them go to Benjamin to get those when Matthew leaves Grande." ”

"That's what I'm going to do. ”

Continue to clear the snow in front of the door.

Actually, if it weren't for a car parked on the side of the road by the North District Police Department to protect Grande, this job would have been done a long time ago.

Emilia's arrival seemed to be a sight to behold. The dirt and gravel road began to be frequented by vehicles.

This is the most disgusting situation, the snow thickness is better, but it just presses out all kinds of traces. But the half-cleared dirt and rocky floor, which was not thick or thick, was crushed by frequent passing vehicles, and all kinds of muddy, dirty ice ballast made the road in front of Poch and Grande look dirty and messy, like the back alleys of some of Becky's streets.

This road is in addition to the Grande, which is the church of the Holy Child to the west. Wait a minute, and then there's the prison to the west.

Zach was wondering when the Church of the Holy Son became popular when a slightly familiar car drove by.

Zach had already been stained to his waist anyway, and simply stood in the middle of the road. "Mr. Pixar, do you want to see Toby at the cemetery?" Zach certainly wouldn't say the Church of the Holy Child first, "Sorry, the snow is too thick, and the staff in the cemetery are still clearing the snow, so you might have to sit in Grande for a while." ”

Mr. Pixar didn't turn off the fire and poked his head out, "Uh, thanks for the reminder, but I'm not here for the cemetery today." I'll probably take a look when I get back. ”

"Oh. That's good, too. Zach moved out of the way, in his usual relaxed tone, "The snow in the cemetery should have been almost cleared when the gentleman returns." I don't know what the gentleman is going to do, but if he comes back soon, I can ask the staff to clean up Toby's cemetery first. ”

With such a warm and thoughtful offer, whether you accept it or reject it, you have to explain what you are going to do.

To be honest, it's quite annoying to know someone like Zach.

"Uh......" Mr. Pixar was visibly hesitating, "I'll go to the Church of the Holy Son." ”

"Are you going to church today?" tomorrow is Sunday, "The Church of the Holy Son?" Zach wrote these questions on his face, yes, it's the feeling that you're too embarrassed to leave without explaining, dead to Mr. Pixar.

Pixar pouted. Well, if he could, of course he wouldn't want to go to church from this road, but if he didn't take this road, there would be no way out. With the exception of Route 27, the South End is all this kind of dirt and gravel road. Not all peasants have the self-consciousness of Grande and Muen.

"I'm ...... with a few friends," Mr. Pixar was about to explain. But he was interrupted by the horn behind his car.

Zach glanced sideways, tsk. It was Cologne's brother-in-law, who honked his horn impatiently, "What's going on ahead! Hurry up! I have surgery in the afternoon!!"

Suddenly, Zach didn't even bother to ask what was going on. He made a gesture of please, to Mr. Pixar.

Mr. Pixar was polite, nodded, and drove away.

Cologne's brother-in-law glanced at Zack for some reason when he passed by, then glanced sideways at the car parked at the North District Police Station near Grande, then came back to look at Zack, and drove away.

"Is it the rally guys who witnessed the self-detonation? Sam asked.

Zach looked at the two cars that were going away and nodded, "Ms. West didn't show up. "One is missing," and Kyle's classmate Vincent. "Retract your gaze, don't care, and continue to clear the sparse road.

"Alice, aren't they going to Mr. Pixar today, so they missed it. Sam added.

Zach shrugged his shoulders and missed Mr. Pixar, the small group's trip should have been to find Vendall and Toby on Sbella's side. I wonder if I'll be lucky enough to run into Hamilton and Sbella's negotiations.

"Zach. ”

Zach turned around, and Bane stood in front of Grande's front door, "My kid is sick again, can you help?" The human who asked for his boss's help was straining all over his body.

Sick again, human toddlers are really fragile.

Zach was quiet for a moment, "Of course. Facing Bane, "What do you need?"

Zach doesn't want to play the game anymore. Old Hank, Alice, this is still the person Zach is willing to spend energy on. Although he was the first human to give loyalty to Grande, he wasn't one of Zach's concerns.

Now there are only two ways, either Zach continues to care about this guy, and let this human who has a keen place his entire family on Grande continue to live on the edge of a mess that he will never get close to. Or, come in and show how strong that loyalty really is.

"I, I need you to heal him. Like last time Drake did a bunch of things that didn't work, and everything was fine as soon as you came back. Even if you didn't even come in to take a look, but I know, I just know......"

Zach nodded and walked over to Bane, there was no need to let the other party finish.

The incident itself was strange enough! Why didn't the child go to the hospital when he was sick, and the old Hank had already brought a doctor to his house, and was anxiously waiting for Zack, as if an ordinary funeral manager was of some use to a sick child.

"You're brave, you know. Zach passed Bane, "and smart." ”

"Just give me a chance!"

"I'm giving you a chance. Zach had already walked through the showroom, "But you know, once this opportunity is given to you, there's no way back." ”

"I know! But the only reason I'm staying at Grande is you! You're the one who makes this place special! Not Old Hank!"

Isn't it a little clearer? Hank Sr. and Zach have already chosen the person who will belong to them in the future. But it's not about the future, it's the only choice that happens, isn't it? Logan, who was only chosen, jumped in front of Zack and chose his own future. people, also choose between old Hank and Zach.

Now, it's Bane.

Hehe, it's hard to say if Bane has discovered that Grande's master is not human. The words he uses are special, aren't they~ But no matter what, he's about to know.
