Chapter 235: Ancient Blood and the Back Garden
The neck is a relatively fragile and critical position in the human body, and even a strong demon hunter does not dare to expose it to others at will.
So Ciri didn't agree to Leon's request, and said bluntly: "I don't believe you, what if you take the opportunity to bite me to death?" β
There are too many mysteries in the man in front of him, and distrust is normal.
"That's right." Leon muttered expressionlessly, then put his fisherman's hat over his face and continued to doze.
Ciri's eyes widened in surprise.
That's the end of it, shouldn't we continue to bargain?
Thinking about it, she suddenly burst into flames.
I want her to take the initiative to back down, but there is no door! How can she be said that she is also the daughter of the white wolf, the princess of Sintra, and the Duchess of Soden, how can she be manipulated by a mere motley witcher.
It's a big deal, she will figure out how to do it herself!
So Ciri began a cold war with Leon.
But not long after that, the stiff atmosphere between the two was broken by cheerful laughter, and it was the eldest lady of the Di family who had returned.
She ran excitedly with a hare with an arrow piercing its head in one hand and a platinum bow given to her by Leon in the other.
"Honey, look what I've hunted, today's dinner!"
Li Ang glanced up: "It's dry, the bare board is hairless, it's just right to use it for stew." β
Bella looks like you don't know how to hunt: "That's how rabbits are this season, say yes, Ciri." β
"Ciri?"
The witch hunter didn't answer for a long time, and the eldest lady noticed the clue, as the pistachio of the Di family, she was the most observant.
"What's wrong with you? Wasn't it okay just now? β
"Honey, is it because your fishing skills are so bad that you are disgusted by Ciri?"
Li Ang glanced at the empty fish guard at his feet: "That's right. β
Ciri couldn't stand his nonsense, and said angrily: "Your man wanted to bite my neck, but he became angry after being rejected, and he was sulking alone." β
"Yes." Bella responded absentmindedly, her attention involuntarily focused on Ciri's slender and beautiful neck.
After a few seconds, the eldest lady licked her lips.
"What if. I mean if. If you agree, can you let me take a bite too, gently, definitely not with a lot of force. β
Li Ang couldn't help but laugh out loud when he heard this.
Ciri was so angry that his face darkened, and sure enough, it wasn't a family that didn't enter the door.
She didn't think that the vampire's wife was also a vampire.
Bella knew that her wish had been disappointed, but she was not disappointed, and she still maintained a positive attitude, and shared with her lover the experience of catching the prey she had just captured.
Leon helped her brush her loose blonde hair behind her ears and asked, "You like hunting so much?" β
"I didn't like it before, but I like it now!" Bella was suddenly a little lost, and rubbed the platinum bow in her hand: "It's a pity that there are only rabbits near our house." β
As a unique dark creature, the eldest lady has always had a cruel and bloodthirsty side, but she has been suppressed by reason all year round, and the sport of hunting is just the right time to vent this negative emotion.
Thinking of this, Li Ang comforted: "I'll take you to a place in a few days, there should be a lot of prey suitable for you." β
Bella's eyes instantly lit up with a light called anticipation.
"Really? Great, dear, love you more and more! β
Seeing that the two of them were starting to get tired and crooked, Ciri coughed a few times: "Alas, what you said before doesn't count, you can't let me run with you for nothing." β
Li Ang grabbed the eldest lady's little hand: "Isn't this a conversation, it's not too late to talk in a few days." β
Ciri had a cold face: "There's no need to talk, I'm going back." β
Leon said solemnly, "Do you need me to send you?" Anyway, we are all from the same school. β
"When I get back, remember to say hello to Geralt and Yennefer on my behalf, provided that you escape the hunt and that they are not implicated by your good daughter, who often gets into trouble."
The words touched the softest part of Ciri's heart, and after a long time, she lifted her chin, exposing her fragile throat.
"Give you a minute, hurry."
However, Leon didn't seem to hear at all, and jerked the fishing rod in his hand.
A large, slender black fish was dragged out of the water, its smooth scales glistening in the sunlight.
Seeing this, a thought inexplicably arose in Ciri's heart:
She is very similar to this fish, both of them are hooked by wishers.
"Ah, what did you just say?" Leon took off the hook and threw the black fish into the fish guard.
The eldest lady clapped her hands very much on the side: "Okay, you can add dinner at night!" β
At this time, the fishing rod in Ciri's hand also moved.
She pulled the fish up with all her might, and although it was not as big as Leon's, it was a catch.
"Ciri was great too!" Bella praised from the bottom of her heart.
Ciri was infected by the smile of the eldest lady and smiled as well.
"I said, I promised."
Leon threw the hook into the water again and replied, "The right choice." β
"When are we going to start?" Ciri can't wait to solve her own troubles.
Li Ang glanced at the people who had already returned from hunting: "After dinner, I'll go look for you." β
"Bella, remember to arrange a room for Miss Ciri, only for tonight."
The eldest lady nodded in agreement, and Ciri gave him a blank look.
Maybe it's because it's the season of recovery, and the people of Night City really haven't had the opportunity to enjoy this kind of fun before, so they are a little presumptuous, so everyone has gained a lot.
Panang suggested a barbecue party where everyone celebrated.
Although the castle had a welcome banquet only yesterday, the proposal was supported by the majority of the people.
So the group happily returned to the castle and began to prepare.
Since most of the people in Night City had never seen much of the animals, let alone what to do with them, the final work of skinning and deboning had to be left to witch hunters who were proficient in this way, but fortunately, with the help of Elena's maid class, everyone was able to eat dinner on time.
Song Zhaomei and others, who had been working for a day, saw that they had barbecue to eat just after work, and they did not hesitate to praise the V, who were actually just for fun, so that snot bubbles bubbled up.
The party lasted until the evening, when the wild beasts were eaten, half a cow was put in, and the liquor consumed was uncountable.
But Madame has a lot of money and doesn't care about this little expense at all.
Moreover, Leon returned from the cyber world this time, bringing with him a large amount of gold and other precious metals, and if it weren't for the persuasion of Daniela, the little butler, Archina even planned to gild the entire castle.
When they were full of wine and food, they all went back to their homes.
On the drive back to the village, a drunken Aveline whispers to Judy.
"Yesterday we just finished talking about living in the castle, and today someone has taken action, what did I say to you, that woman named Ciri is definitely not simple."
Judy glanced at her friend and said, "It's not what you think, V told me that Ciri lived in the castle because of something and will move back tomorrow." β
Aveline replied disdainfully, "What can happen in the big night, it's just a matter of men and women." If you don't believe me, let's make a bet, I bet she won't come back tomorrow. β
Judy parked her beloved pickup truck at the door of the girls' dormitory: "I don't want to bet on such a boring thing with you." β
With that, he opened the door and got out of the car.
Aveline hurriedly followed: "It's not that you don't want to, it's that you're not sure, are you?" β
At the same time, inside the castle.
Bella and V, who have become bed partners again, are also making bets.
"Do you think he'll be back tonight?"
Bella hugged the Night City girl intimately, squeezed her eyebrows and said, "I bet he will." β
V said helplessly: "Then I can only bet on it." β
After two days of getting along, she has basically figured out the personality of the eldest lady, and she is really a little too lively, and her personality is a little overwhelmed by extroverts.
Bella rubbed the face of the girl in her arms: "You can also bet the same with me, Miss Ben will take you to win!" β
V wondered: "There are no losers, what is the difference between that and not betting." β
Bella laughed like a cunning fox: "Whoever doesn't come back at night will lose, and then he will be punished!" β
Just as the two girls were whispering and plotting something big, Leon got up from the huge misty bath. As soon as I walked up the steps, the water droplets on the surface of my skin were steamed dry, and my body was dry and pleasant, as if I had never been touched by water.
In the depths of the mist, Archyna's slightly lazy voice sounded.
"Not going to go back to the party?"
"Find Ciri." Li Ang replied succinctly.
Now the place where he is the exclusive bathroom of his wife, and even his three daughters rarely come.
The circular room is like an exquisite garden, with intricate sculptures, elaborate dΓ©cor, priceless artworks, and a variety of strange-looking flowers that exude a whimsical mix of colours and exotic fragrances.
Leon stepped barefoot on the thick carpet and walked out unhurriedly.
Elena was waiting by the side, draped him in a freshly ironed bathrobe, and another maid served him a glass of wine.
Leon picked up the glass and rinsed his mouth, then spit the liquid into a basin made of pure gold.
Rubbing off the remaining liquor from the corners of his mouth with a warm towel, he asked:
"Did Ciri sleep?"
Elena immediately replied, "Mr. Hui, she has been waiting for you in the room. β
"Take me there."
This was the end of the conversation between the two, and the head maid walked in front with her head bowed, followed by a tall man in a bathrobe.
Walk through the black marble corridor and past several gem-encrusted crystal chandeliers.
Elena stopped in front of a wooden door with a red vein.
She curled her fingers and knocked on the door.
"Miss Ciri, it's me, Elena, and Mr. Leon has arrived."
"It's finally here, let him in." Ciri's slightly impatient voice came from the room.
Elena pushed the door open, and then walked away quickly, Madame was still bathing, and she had to hurry back to serve as soon as possible.
Leon strode into the dimly lit room.
Because it was too late, Ciri didn't turn on the lights, and she was a little nervous, and the darkness probably made her feel better.
The only light in the room was the moon shining through the window.
With this light, Ciri, who was sitting on the edge of the bed, saw Leon's appearance clearly.
Although she didn't want to admit it, she had to admit that the man in front of her was at least extremely good in appearance, with broken gold eyes, a handsome face, and a bathrobe with a slightly open neckline, it was a perfect line, even if it was placed in the elf clan who were known for their beauty, they were also one of the best existences.
And he exudes an indescribable temperament, with the domineering of a king, the peace of a wise man, the casualness of a prodigal son, the seriousness of a priest, and all kinds of characteristics are intertwined, like years of aging, the more you taste, the more you taste.
Ciri looked up, staring intently.
Obviously, Li Ang was far enough away, but he seemed to feel his blazing body temperature, which made people can't help but dry their mouths.
Struggling to clear the clutter of thoughts in his head, Ciri asked hoarsely:
"When are we going to start?"
"As long as you want, anytime." Leon slowly approached.
"Wait!" Ciri moved to the side: "Can you do it another way, for example, I can find a way to draw the blood, and you drink it as soon as possible, it shouldn't have any effect." β
Leon looked at her and didn't speak.
Ciri looked up at the man, but he didn't hold on for long before he unconsciously looked away.
Feeling ashamed, she simply closed her eyes and raised her head as if she was heroic: "Come on, I'm ready!" β
Leon stood there and looked at it for a moment, until Ciri couldn't help but want to open his eyes, and he gently placed his hands on the other's shoulders.
The girl's body instantly stiffened, like a rusty machine on the table.
"Relax." Leon's voice was sleepy, and his hands gradually strengthened, pushing Ciri to fall onto the bed.
Under the silver moonlight, the two bodies fit closely, like lovers.
Ciri's breathing became noticeably shorter, and the back of the man's fingers with body temperature slowly slid over her face, and she frowned, her face involuntarily tilted to the side, revealing her fair neck.
The tip of Leon's nose sniffed lightly around his neck, then stuck out his tongue and licked it.
"You didn't take a shower today, did you?"
Ciri immediately opened her eyes, her expression furious as if she was about to bite back.
Li Ang smiled playfully: "Look at you are too nervous, liven up the atmosphere." β
Ciri was about to say something when Leon suddenly opened his mouth and bit her neck.
The sharp fangs easily pierced the delicate skin, and crimson blood gushed out.
Ciri subconsciously hugged Leon's broad back, and then blinked strangely.
It doesn't seem to hurt at all.
It's crispy and numb, and even a little different kind of pleasure.
At this time, Ciri remembered that Geralt had taught her that there were many monsters that were good at using poison, and when hunting, they would inject a toxin into the prey that numbly paralyzed the senses, so that the prey would die without any pain before they knew it.
Very humane way of hunting.
'Humanitarianism' is what she learned in the cyber world, even though the world is not humane at all.
The letting go of his thoughts made Ciri feel a little sleepy, and then his consciousness began to blur.
At that time, I really shouldn't have believed him, I was simply a stupid fish who was hooked by a wisher!
I don't know how long it took, Li Ang looked at the sleeping witch hunter thoughtfully.
It turned out that he took a bite, and the sleep aid effect was so good?
Shrugging his shoulders, Leon covered Ciri with the quilt and walked out of the room.
Outside the hallway, he stumbled on his feet, and finally leaned against the wall to keep him from falling.
This blood is the real top! But he was right.
went straight to Madame's boudoir, and as soon as he pushed the door open, Li Ang said, "I'm going to sleep for a while, don't let people disturb me." β
Archyna saw that he was not in the right state and hurriedly got out of bed to help.
"What's going on! Is it the woman named Ciri who did something to you? β
Li Ang waved his hand and moved to the side of the bed with difficulty: "It's a good thing, I will most likely evolve again." β
Archyna breathed a sigh of relief, but then raised her heart again: "Will evolution fail?" What is the probability of success? β
It's just that Li Ang was no longer able to answer his wife's question at this time, and the whole person completely went into a dormant state.
Seeing this, Achina straightened his body and placed a chair beside the bed.
The sun rose as promised the next day, and Leon showed no signs of waking up.
What's even more amazing is that Ciri is also asleep and can't wake up no matter how much she screams, so she still lives in the castle the next night.
Aveline won the bet, but she didn't win anything.
Then the third day, the fourth day.
The people who stayed by Leon's side changed from Achyna to Bella, and from Bella to Donna, who took the initiative to move to the castle.
Everyone was anxious, but there was nothing they could do.
Archina thought twice and decided not to reveal the matter of Leon's dormancy, even from V, who was close at hand, and Ashley, who was far away in the United States.
On the sixth day, the duke returned to the valley.
On the seventh day, Ashley and Ida arrived in Romania by plane.
On the eighth day, Ciri awoke.
It wasn't until the afternoon of the ninth day that Leon finally ended his dormancy.
In fact, his consciousness has always been awake during this time, and he even knows who is accompanying the bed every day.
Except for the inability to control the body.
The main reason for this is due to the Ancient Blood in Ciri's body, a divine bloodline that is theoretically capable of controlling time and space.
And Leon himself has the ability to travel through time and space, although there are many limitations, but quantitative changes cause qualitative changes.
The Blood of the Ancients succeeded in accelerating the fusion of the fungus web and the Great Blessing, which in turn catalyzed the birth of the Kingdom of God.
Now, the first layer of the largest fungus net has completely disappeared, and the Great Blessing, which was originally only the size of a walled city, has become an extremely vast plain.
This plain is not a product of fantasy, but a real land.
With water, vegetation, and a complete ecosystem, it can also change day and night, and even change the topography at any time according to Leon's wishes.
In short, Leon is the creator of the land, and he can make it whatever he wants.
In addition to the changes in the Great Blessing, Leon's own ability to travel through time and space has also changed.
That's what he thinks is the most important thing.
In the past, Leon used the items produced by the world to anchor the world and achieve the purpose of traveling through time and space.
Now, he can connect himself to different worlds as an anchor.
In other words, you can go back after you leave.
Of course, it is limited to the world that has been shuttled in the future, and it is still not possible to shuttle before, so you have to go through other methods.
The emergence of this ability is the result of Leon's deliberate guidance.
Ever since the day he met Heri in Japantown, he has had plans accordingly.
Next, Leon will use this ability to harvest the first subsidiary world, and use the resources of the subsidiary world to feed back to the main world.
He had already chosen the target, and that was Red Dead Redemption 2.
There is no supernatural power, the level of technology is backward, the world power is mediocre, and the most important thing is that it is not much different from the main world and the world of Leon in his previous life.
Either prop up a puppet regime, or occupy land to establish a state, and eventually make it the backyard of the Overworld.
