Anatoly's memory jumps forward until the image stops in a square. Anatoly was about twenty years old at this time, and he was still a mortal, not a Blood. He was so beautiful that he already had many followers, and those believers were following him closely.

In the middle of the night, they surrounded a large mansion with torches held alof. He said to the believers, "The devil is in the house, be careful to save your life, and wait for the opportunity to kill it." ”

People said, "Yes, Father." ”

Anatoly nodded, his finger turned, and the firelight flew towards the mansion, and the upstairs burned, and the believers looked at Anatoly with extraordinary reverence.

Suddenly, the windows shattered, and a large, ferocious monster leaped down, covered in blood red, with a pair of chorns, and eyes shining like red lights, about three meters high.

People shouted, "It's down!" ”

The red monster landed, and I could tell that it wasn't a Red Flame Demon, but a Smitz Clan that had molded itself into a demon. It rushed across the street, Anatoly whistled, and men with spears and crossbows charged at the Kindred. He unleashed the Heaven and Earth Yuanyi, and used the fire light to stab the prey with a blade.

The Bloodline was very powerful, but under the complete ambush of Anatoli, he was soon seriously wounded, and the believers were wounded about five, and the rest were only gasping for breath. Anatoly picked up a spear, the tip of which burst into flames, and stabbed the red monster so hard that its head blossomed, and soon burned itself, and the faithful cheered.

Anatoly squeezed his palm, extinguished the fire, and then quickly left.

Walking through the labyrinthine streets, they entered a cellar with a cistern and the sound of water droplets everywhere. They lit up the surroundings with torches.

Anatoly took off his chain mail, wrapped only a towel around him, entered the cistern, and slashed his chest with a knife, his blood staining the pool red, and soon disappeared without a trace. His followers looked at him with adoring eyes.

Anatoly cried out, "Thank you, Jesus Christ, for your divine power to give us one more day to live, and for the sake of the world." I offer my blood and hope that you will bless you next time. ”

The people were shouting and praying the same prayer as him, and Anatoly finished praying and said, "This is the end of the day." ”

The believers fell to their knees and shouted, "We are willing to give our blood for Christ." ”

Anatoly said, "Now is not the time, it is enough for me to accept your faith and give it to the Lord." ”

The believers wept and worshipped and bowed, and Anatoly gave an order, and finally dispersed.

Anatoly closed his eyes and immersed himself in the cistern, from which he fished out a coffin, in which was Longinus.

Longinus said, "What have you done?" ”

Anatoly said, "Sethusus is dead. ”

Longinus was furious and wanted to speak, but coughed first. Anatoly said, "Drink some of my blood." ”

Longinus said, "I don't drink blood. ”

Anatoly said, "If you don't drink blood, you will die." ”

Longinus still didn't drink it, and asked, "How many times have I told you?" Before you start, find out the details of your enemies, Smitz is a very powerful wizard, and if his whereabouts are revealed, you will all die. ”

Anatoly said, "I saw the revelation in my dream. ”

Longinus: "You're evil!" There is no such thing as divine revelation! ”

Anatoly sneered, "Isn't what you saw before you stabbed Christ to death a revelation?" ”

"It could be the devil's bewitchment."

Anatoly exclaimed, "I believe everything you say, believe that you are the pagan who killed Christ, believe what you say, 'God has forgiven you.'" 'I believe in your teachings more, and thus convert to Christianity, and now you tell me in turn that you may be mistaken?' What did you suffer from in the beginning? ”

Longinus said angrily: "You should take it as my confession before I die." ”

Anatoli said, "You won't die, as long as you drink blood, you won't die!" Why are you always so stubborn? ”

Longinus said, "If I die, I will be reborn as a mortal and free from the curse of the Bloodline." How many times have I told you? That's what I've been cultivating for hundreds of years. ”

Anatoly laughed and said, "It's whimsical, like a white swan giving birth to a toad's eggs, like giving birth to a virgin by caesarean section and giving birth to a demon child, like the white elk I dismembered that day, like the captain of the pirate ship full of dead men but a pure angel!" You're crazy, Longinus! ”

Longinus looked sadly at his apprentice, realizing that Anatoly was becoming hysterical and stubborn. Perhaps since he was a child, he had shown the signs of today, but they were not obvious at that time.

Isn't it obvious enough? When he was a child, he began to kill people suspected of being of the blood clan one by one. He's doing the same thing now, only more efficiently and bolder.

He was jealous and hateful, and he was almost insane.

Anatoly said, "You're going out for a walk?" ”

Longinus said, "I'm going to see the Holy Spear, my life is short." ”

"It was just an ugly fish bone," Anatoly said. ”

Longinus said loudly, "You have inherited the power of Heaven and Earth Yuanyi, and you can use the Holy Spear until you find my reincarnation and teach the Holy Spear to him again." Use the Holy Lance, it will make you stronger. ”

Anatoly shook his head and sighed, "Oh, old Longinus, my poor old Longinus. I've always hated the hypocrites of the church, haven't you? ”

Longinus: "But some hypocrites will do good deeds all their lives, and that's not a hypocrite, right?" ”

Longinus was heading to the cathedral in Constantinople, and Anatoly had no intention of accompanying him, for he had long thought that the priests, priests, and nuns were not good and were ashamed to be in their company. And Longinus is old and confused, and he actually calls those bureaucrats brothers? Come on, he's a god-killer.

Anatoly believed in the Lord, but was not attached to any organization, and his faith did not require any rituals. He thinks he believes that it is enough.

He made a scar on his wrist and let the blood drip to the ground, and after walking about a hundred meters, his wound healed, and he knelt on the ground, observing the traces left by the blood, as a welcome to the revelation. He tortured himself through all kinds of pain, making himself stronger and stronger. In the eyes of outsiders, this handsome tramp was extremely abnormal, not a madman, but also a religious fanatic.

Blood divination is shown as a bad omen.

The sound of the night wind was like the swallowing of wild beasts, and Anatoly heard the sound of bowels falling to the ground, sticky and uncomfortable to listen to.

He turned the corner and saw dead people piled on the ground, the same believers who had broken up with him before. The crows landed on them, pecking at their eyeballs, and a few teeth remained in their open mouths, as if praying to the saints they worshipped.

Anatoly sensed the flow of shadows, and someone emerged from the shadows. He closed his eyes, and the torch in his hand swung back, and the flame turned into a scythe, slicing the shadow in two.

Shadows leaped out one after another, coming at Anatoly from an unexpected place, Anatoly ran towards a tower, stomped a few steps on the wall, and a backflip, and as his front was parallel to the ground, he slashed out the flame scythe and slay the shadow demons.

He noticed a man hiding in an alley and lunged at him, the Bloodclan roaring at him, turning the shadow into a sword, but Anatoly stopped abruptly, flicked his fingers, and the flames struck the man, a woman, who screamed sharply, baring her sharp canine teeth.

The Bloods were afraid of fire, and in a moment she was burned all over her body, and Anatoly dispersed the flames and walked towards the Bloods.

The Female Blood Clan scolded, "Damn brute! ”

Anatoly grabbed her hair and slashed her mouth open with a flaming scythe, and the Bloodswoman cried out in pain, and Anatoly spun the scythe down, slicing off her entire palm.

The female blood clan couldn't bear it and said, "I'll do anything!" ”

Anatoly said, "Why are you eyeing us? ”

The Bloodsmaiden said, "If you kill Sesthus, we Larsenlu will not let you go." ”

Anatoly said, "Who is the mastermind?" Where is he? ”

The Bloodline sneered, "You don't want to know, and Constantinople is finished." ”

Anatoly stomped off her other hand, and amid the wails of the Bloods, Anatoly asked, "What about the rest of you?" ”

The Female Bloodline said, "We've been eyeing you for a long time, you and your. The old bloodline. You've been killing our nobles, so you're out of luck. ”

Anatoly's face suddenly turned terrified, and he said, "You know him? You went at him? ”

The Blood-Woman laughed and said, "You will soon see the horrors of our Larsen-Clan and the Smitz-Blood. ”

Anatoly burned her to ashes, her screams piercing the night sky as Anatoly rushed to the cathedral.

Anatoly was uncomfortable with the extravagant and sacred building of Constantinople, the gargoyles, the gods, the Gothic minaret, like messengers and symbols from hell.

He had the illusion that the building was built by a demon, just like the church he had first met with Longinus, shiny on the outside but dirty on the inside.

When he reached the inner sanctum of the church, he saw the spikes of shadows like stalagmites and stalactites, and Longinus's body was pierced and hung high like the martyr on the cross.

He had slain the leader of the enemy, and the wounds he suffered were staggering.

Anatoly saved his teacher and shouted, "Drink my blood!" Hurry up! ”

Longinus smiled bitterly, "You know what I'm going to do. ”

Tears rolled in Anatoli's eyes, he never thought he would weep for a Bloodline, he said, "Your theory will not succeed, the Bloodline can never become a human!" ”

Longinus said, "I... It's special, look at it. ”

"If you succeed, when will I see you again?"

Longinus replied, "That may have to wait until you are as old as I am." ”

Anatoly hesitated, then bit down on Longinus' wrist and sucked the little blood left in his veins. Longinus looked at him calmly and disappeared in Anatoly's arms.

Anatoly turned and picked up the speargun that stood in the rubble.
