Vina choked. Wouldn't it be the same as admitting the fact that she was a war beast if she asked this question?

Qin Jiu looked at Vina's frustrated look, and consciously skipped the topic, saying, "Can you help me leave?"

Vina nodded silently and was about to turn around and leave.

Qin Jiu behind her suddenly called her.

"You haven't answered my first question yet. Are you hungry?"

Vina blinked and nodded hesitantly.

Qin Jiu took two steps forward, squatted down and held her in his arms.

"Don't hurt other innocent people, or you will be punished by God." Qin Jiu pressed her head down and let her lean on his neck.

Qin Jiu didn't say anything, but when Vina's gaze touched Qin Jiu's white neck, a hint of hungry fanaticism flashed in her eyes.

A clear stream, like a forked branch, flowed under Qin Jiu's skin.

Those are Qin Jiu's blood vessels. As long as you bite through the outer skin, the sweet juice will flow out...

She felt even more thirsty, and her stomach growled.

Qin Jiu exudes a pleasant smell that is irresistible.

She subconsciously opened her mouth, and two snow-white fangs pierced Qin Jiu's skin.

Qin Jiu frowned but didn't push her away.

Vina looked too pale and her body was obviously malnourished. Only her pale little face had some soft flesh left.

It's like a child who has not eaten enough for a long time and looks malnourished.

But as the owner of the Xingyue Auction House, she has a lot of money, so how could she lack food?

Qin Jiu boldly guessed that perhaps her food was different from that of ordinary people, or even from that of all other war beasts.

——It’s not food that can be easily obtained!

Qin Jiu searched through all the records about war beasts in her mind. Finally, she focused her attention on the only war beast that was truly marked as extinct.

——Blood bat!

An ancient war beast that has the same genes as the Night Emperor Bat but has its own differentiation, people jokingly call it a vampire.

The Night Emperor Bat is a bat that feeds on fruit. Although it is large in size, it does not harm humans.

Blood bats are different. They are smaller in size, but feed on blood, making them more like a symbol of bad luck.

Even though they have excellent fighting abilities, they were judged as dangerous war beasts and were removed from the list of war beasts many years ago.

According to records, the last blood bat became extinct thousands of years ago, and people now no longer know of the existence of this war beast.

But are blood bats extinct?

Qin Jiu remembered that Edel had mentioned this kind of war beast in class. There was a piece of unofficial history in the description of it that Qin Jiu was very concerned about -

The blood bat cannot integrate into this society because it is driven away by humans, but it must have humans to exist, so it has evolved into human form.

However, because this conclusion is too absurd, everyone regards it as a fictional story.

Could it be that they have really found other ways to survive and rejoin human society?

Originally, Qin Jiu just had doubts about this, but combined with her impression of her and some strange rules of the Xingyue Auction House, she couldn't help but think in this direction.

Hence this temptation.

Although Vina is a blood bat, Qin Jiu knows that she has never really hurt humans.

Because she didn't have the chilling coldness like Shadow, she might have used other methods to maintain her life.

What will it be?

When Qin Jiu was curious, Vina, who was buried in her neck, raised her head with red eyes.

She saw with her own eyes that the two small holes on Qin Jiu's neck that she had bitten healed at a speed visible to the naked eye, and his skin became smooth again.

Vina was stunned and turned her head suddenly to look at Qin Jiu.

Qin Jiu put his finger to his mouth and made a gesture to keep quiet.

"Don't tell anyone else."

While Vina was still in a daze, Qin Jiu had already wiped the corners of her mouth.

Her face became noticeably redder, and she was somewhat embarrassed to accept Qin Jiu's care.

She seldom had a full stomach, and even with the occasional offerings from Leven and Alder, their fragile human bodies could not withstand her takings.

But the woman in front of me is different...

Her life force seemed endless. She ate out of instinct at first, but later she regained her sanity.

She thought she was going to knock the person out again, but Qin Jiu seemed to be fine, and the lost blood was constantly replenished.

It's like this person won't die...

What she didn't know was that the amount she absorbed was far less than that of the little white ball.

The little white ball wished it could suck Qin Jiu dry, and sometimes even Qin Jiu's recovery ability was not as good as its sucking ability.

But the amount Vina took was no different from a mosquito bite.

Vina was still in Qin Jiu's arms. She was silent for a moment, and finally uttered a mosquito-like buzzing sound: "I... am a blood bat."

This was the same answer Qin Jiu had guessed. She asked curiously, "Why can you turn into a human?"

Vina picked up the cane and said to Qin Jiu: "The gem on it is made from the essence and blood of our people. They gave the gem to me, and I became like this..."

Qin Jiu saw the stars slowly flowing in the gem, so he couldn't help but want to touch it.

But before her hand touched the gem, Vina grabbed Qin Jiu's arm tightly.

"Don't touch it!"

Qin Jiu saw her nervous expression and asked, "What's wrong?"

Vina: "The gem will suck you into the space inside..."

Qin Jiu suddenly asked: "So the stars inside... are people?"

Vina didn't dare to look Qin Jiu in the eye, she nodded slightly.

That star field was filled with densely packed stars, and Qin Jiu couldn't help but feel his scalp tingling.

She seemed to suddenly understand why Vina could still live a normal life despite being extremely malnourished!

Because she has this gem to sustain her life!

And the gems are used to obtain the vitality of others to nourish Vina!

Qin Jiu grabbed her hand and asked nervously, "Is the person inside still alive?"

Vina nodded: "Alive, just in a deep sleep."

The woman in front of her seemed very concerned about the humans in the gem. Vina asked cautiously, "Do you want them to come out?"

"Yeah." Qin Jiu nodded, then raised his hand and gently tapped Vina's forehead.

"I don't want you to get killed."

She had seen the Shadow corroded by filth, so naturally she didn't want the other party to become that kind of existence.

Vina still retains the mentality of a child. Perhaps using gems to trap those who doubt her is a way for her to survive here.

She could have made her life more productive by sucking away their life force, but she didn't.

She still retained her compassion and did not kill at will, but only maintained her own life to the minimum extent possible.

Maybe it's because she is a war beast, a creature born for protection, and not an ugly and sinful existence like the alien beast.
