Lian Qi was taken aback for a moment, and then he reacted.

It turned out that Xie Ze recognized him, and knew that they had fought once, and Lian Qi was seriously injured in that battle, and finally escaped from the hunter's hands by resorting to some means.

However, half a year has passed since the incident. The hunter usually slays demons and slays demons, so how could he keep his eyes on him so tightly?

His blood has a strange fragrance, which is the same for vampires or humans, and Xie Ze probably recognized it through this.

Lian Qi spread his hands indifferently, and said, "Ah, I've been recognized."

"But Mr. Hunter, we are really destined, and you can meet anything, I'm thinking—"

He squinted his eyes, and there was a hint of temptation in his smile.

"Are you following me on purpose?"

Xie Ze frowned.

His expression was a little different from usual, his expression seemed to be more serious, his eyes were filled with some abnormal violence, the color of his lips was too white, and there was even a hint of blue.

Lian Qi felt that the aura around him was unstable and messy, like countless knives mixed together, even if he just approached, there would be an illusion of being cut.

This is a bit like the first time he fought Xie Ze. At that time, Xie Ze also gave him the same feeling. It seems that most hunters are sick. Once they fight, they seem to be a different person.

No wonder Xie Ze was often injured with his strength. Thinking about how desperate he was when he fought them for the first time every time he fought, it would be normal to get injured from time to time.

Lian Qi was a bit bloodthirsty from the smell of blood all over the floor, and the devilish energy around him was released undisguisedly, surrounding him docilely.

The small art gallery was immediately filled with the aura of monsters. Even though Lian Qi's aura was much purer than ordinary monsters, it still had an instinctive repulsion with the hunter's power.

Xie Ze took the lead.

Lian Qi didn't expect him to act so simply, the red blade came towards him with a violent aura, extremely fast, almost in an instant.

The sharpness of the red blade is by no means something that his current defenses can resist. Lian Qi did not resist hard, but moved his body to see the trajectory of the attack, but——

Xie Ze's knife tip moved slightly as Lian Qi dodged.

moment.

The red blade pierced straight from the chest!

The sharp pain stimulated the nerves, and the vampire, who was more sensitive to pain than ordinary humans, closed his eyes and tightly grasped the blade of the red blade with his left hand, and the blood slowly flowed down the palm of his hand.

Xie Ze was so close to him that he could clearly see every tiny expression on Xie Ze's face.

There seemed to be a gleam of red light flashing in Xie Ze's pupils.

Lian Qi coughed a few times, coughing up a few traces of blood, he licked his blood-stained lips indifferently, like a heart-eating monster.

"Xie Ze," this was the first time Lian Qi called him by his full name, "You were soft at the last moment."

The red blade pierced through the chest, but when the blade tip touched the heart, it shifted slightly and passed by the heart.

For a monster that has turned into a human form, the heart is as fatal as a human being.

"You are really an excellent hunter." Lian Qi let go of his left hand, gently licking the blood from the palm of his hand, "You suspected that I was a monster a long time ago, but you have been testing me all the time."

"Why didn't you just shoot? It's because I was too human at that time, and you were a hunter. A hunter is destined to exorcise demons and subdue demons, and he can't point his blade at his own compatriots."

Lian Qi used that low hoarse voice again.

"However, are you really that kind of hunter who is full of sense of justice?" He smiled, with a kind of casual irony, "Mr. Hunter, don't you think that when you fight, you are too desperate? "

As soon as the words came out, Lian Qi noticed that Xie Ze's pupils shrank.

The black-haired, red-eyed vampire stretched out his right hand to caress the hunter's cheek, and lowered his voice, like a soft murmur between lovers.

"You should know that every monster has its unique talent, and sometimes, it can do unexpected things."

"You know what, I smell nightmares on you—uh!"

Xie Ze's hand holding the red blade trembled, and the sharp blade moved accordingly.

The red blade is still inserted into Lian Qi's chest, and its slight movement made its blade cut Lian Qi's heart, causing severe and sharp pain.

"Don't move around," Lian Qi put on a white face, resting two fingers lightly on the blade, "Do you really want to kill me?"

Xie Ze didn't say a word.

His hand holding the red blade suddenly became hot as if it had been burned by something.

He frowned, and gently pulled out the red blade from Lian Qi's chest, and several streams of blood also flowed out, splashing on the back of Xie Ze's hand, like blooming flowers.

Lian Qi took a few steps back to stabilize his figure, a flash of clarity flashed in his eyes covered by his forehead hair.

"In order to overcome the nightmare, you have tried many methods, right?" Lian Qi stood three steps away from Xie Ze, with a hint of warmth in his bright red eyes, "In our family, there is a therapy called 'adaptive overcoming', That is to say, by constantly increasing the amount of something and becoming familiar with it every day and night, to achieve the purpose of ultimate adaptation."

"My power is relatively pure among all the monsters," he said lightly, "The control of power is also very good. If you really fight, you won't die in a short time. If you lose control, maybe I can still beat you back."

The blood clan has always been a clan that is good at demagoguery.

"How is it?" Lian Qi's face turned paler, but his lips were as bright red as if stained with blood, "Do you want to think about it?"

The aura around Xie Ze was sometimes docile and sometimes messy. Lian Qi had tried his best to restrain all the devilish energy in himself, so as not to let them repel the spiritual energy.

Xie Ze held the handle of the Red Blade tightly, his fingertips were bluish white, and veins appeared on the back of his hand.

For a moment, he seemed lost in thought.

This is the time.

Lian Qi hid all the danger in his body, bit the tip of his tongue with his sharp canine teeth, and his mouth was filled with the breath of his own blood.

He stepped forward in twos and threes, reached out and grabbed Xie Ze by the collar.

The lips of the two overlapped.

A cold and soft feeling came, with a unique sweet fragrance, Xie Ze looked at Lian Qi's eyes that were close at hand, and the thrilling beauty made him dazed for a moment.

Lian Qi bit the tip of Xie Ze's tongue.

The blood of the two people permeated and blended in the mouth at the same time, and a wonderful feeling suddenly exploded in his heart. When the blood was exchanged, it was as if a certain switch was turned on, and some kind of cold power entered from the mouth, and the blood in his body The forces resonate with each other.

"Humans don't know this way of using contracts, do they?" Lian Qi couldn't help squinting his eyes as he felt the sweet breath of Xie Ze's blood, "Just like contracts with legal effects in the watch world, equal contracts also have the same effect."

"In fact, you are willing in your heart." He let go of Xie Ze's collar, twitched his mouth, and there was something else in his smile. "Otherwise, how could the contract be successful?"

"If you kill me now, the consequences of breaking the contract..."

At the end, Lian Qi's voice gradually became quieter.

The self-healing ability of the blood race has been slowly repairing his wounds, but the burden of excessive blood loss and forced bond has exceeded Lian Qi's ability to bear.

His whole body fell forward as if he lost his strength, fine white light spots floated all over his body, and his body gradually became smaller in the light spots.

A small bat appeared in midair.

With its wings curled up, its eyes closed, it fell towards the ground like a fluffy ball.

With the disappearance of Lian Qi's body, the evil energy in the art gallery was swept away.

The breath around Xie Ze suddenly calmed down. He stretched out his hand and carefully caught the little bat that fell from the air.

A ball of warm fur on the palm.

He looked at the little bat with extremely complicated eyes, as if he was engaged in a fierce inner battle. His eyes showed a decisive look several times, but when he touched the little bat's curled up body, he turned into a A silent gentleness.

After a while, there was a sound of chaotic footsteps.

Xie Ze put the little bat into the pocket of his jacket. The pocket was opened on his chest. The warm body of the little bat was attached to his chest, like a small heat source.

A middle-aged hunter rushed over with a small team. As soon as he rushed into the fifth floor of the art gallery, he could smell not only the stench of monsters, but also this rather strange sweet fragrance.

They hurriedly approached the place where the smell came from, and saw Xie Ze standing there alone, the surroundings were in a mess, the ground was covered with blood, and the red blade in Xie Ze's hand was also dripping with blood.

"We heard that a powerful humanoid monster came here," said the middle-aged hunter, with a pale Xie Qing standing beside him, "I don't know if this is—"

"Run away," Xie Ze interrupted him, put away the red blade, and walked over with blood all over the ground, "There are two monsters in total, one of them is dead, and the other... Run away during the fight."

"The demon that participated in the attack on humans has died, and the other one has nothing to do with this incident," Xie Ze said, "Do not move at the scene, I will send someone to clean it up."

The middle-aged hunter nodded.

Xie Qing on the side was a little lost. Seeing Xie Ze, she couldn't help but want to ask something, but thinking of Xie Ze's attitude towards monsters, she still didn't say anything.

Why...Qi Qi would be...

Xie Qing felt empty in her heart, as if a piece had been taken away by someone.

Thinking of Xie Jing who was seriously injured in the hospital, and thinking of Lian Qi's clean and warm smile, the constant intermingling between hunters and demons lingered in her heart, and she couldn't figure it out no matter what.

###

It was almost evening when Xie Ze returned home.

It gets dark very quickly in this season, before dinner time, street lights are already on the road, pedestrians rush back against the cold wind, and the broken branches tremble in the wind.

Xie Ze entered the bedroom, closed the window and drew the curtains, and carefully took out the little bat from his pocket.

He put Lian Qi's incarnate bat on the soft bed, turned around and went to the bathroom to take a 3-minute combat shower. After washing away the smell of blood, he sat by the bed, quietly staring at the A small ball for the bat.

After a long time, he felt a sense of exhaustion all over his body.

The many days of fighting put a huge burden on the human body. Xie Ze turned off the light, lay sideways on the bed, put the little bat by his side, and then fell into sleep.

Between half-dream and half-awake, memories of the past surged in like a tidal wave.

20 years ago, demons rioted.

As one of the founding families of the Hunters Guild, the Xie family suffered an unprecedented blow during this riot.

There was no warning about the attack of the demons. At that time, Xie's father was resisting the menacing army of demons outside. At this time, Xie's mother was the only one with three young children in the Xie family villa.

The Xie family is a family of hunters, and it has exterminated countless monsters. Naturally, there are also countless monsters who are hostile to it. That night, the monsters quietly bypassed the hunter army and sneaked into Xie's house, launching a brutal massacre.

The five-year-old monk Xie Ze's infant siblings were hidden by Xie's mother.

Through the gap in the defensive cover, he saw how the demon tortured and killed his mother, and then shared the food.

It was at this time that Nightmare was attracted.

Nightmare is a kind of demon floating in the cracks of space. It has no body and no power to actively attack. It doesn't even have a clear mind, and it will only be attracted by the special blood and the cracks in the mind.

Every hunter family has a special bloodline handed down, which endowed them with special abilities, and the bloodline of the Xie family has a dark aura, which is what Nightmare loves the most.

In the following five years, every dream of Xie Ze would be polluted by nightmares.

The dream became incomparably real and memorable. In the dream, there were demons overwhelming the sky. They gnawed at his body with sharp fangs. The demonic energy was everywhere like air, and the roars of demons and his mother were all around his ears. screams.

Xie Ze's spirit was gradually fragmented in repeated dreams.

At that time, Father Xie was obsessed with the death of his beloved wife, soaking himself in endless work and fighting every day. When he finally realized that his eldest son was abnormal, Xie Ze was already ten years old.

In the family of hunters, the training for the offspring started very early, but the real contact with monsters was at the age of ten, and the elders led them to feel the atmosphere of the battle, and when they were strong enough, they would start their first time alone. fighting.

When Xie Ze was ten years old, Xie's father took on a simple small task, the purpose was to let Xie Ze experience what kind of creature a monster is.

However, something happened that shocked him.

When the demonic energy of the demon came out, he was about to remind Xie Ze to perceive this aura, but when he looked back, he found that Xie Ze, who was only ten years old, suddenly had red eyes, and his whole body was full of madness and tyranny.

Before he could react, Xie Ze had already rushed up, the demonic energy condensed by the demon cut his body into a series of bone wounds, but he seemed to be unconscious, the blade in his hand pierced through the heart of the demon , blood splashed all over his body.

It was only then that Father Xie realized that something was wrong with Xie Ze.

He finally realized the existence of the nightmare and expelled it, but in the most critical period of personality and mind formation, Xie Ze was forced to fight countless monsters every night, so he gained a fighting ability far superior to his peers.

But the child's spirit has been completely destroyed.

Later, Father Xie tried his best to carry out mental treatment, and his condition eased somewhat, but there is still a long way to go.

Until now, when Xie Ze is facing monsters, the stronger and purer the demonic energy, the more he can stimulate the killing and cruelty in his heart. This kind of fighting method like a life-for-life has kept him company with injuries all year round. Even if Father Xie is worried , but nothing can be done.

……

In the morning, the sky is light.

Xie Ze woke up from a deep sleep.

The room was dark, except for the occasional glimmer of light from the plant in the corner.

He touched the cold sweat that broke out on his forehead at an unknown time, and felt that the exhaustion in his body had not been completely eliminated. He did not sleep well that night. What Lian Qi said during the day brought back memories of his past. The image haunted him all night.

Lian Qi...

He looked down at the small group beside him.

Before going to bed, he put the little bat under the quilt, but he didn't know when he rolled out again, lying on his pillow with his legs upside down, his wings covering his body, and fell asleep there.

Xie Ze couldn't tell what kind of feeling he felt in his heart. He knew that he would lose control in the face of monsters, so he instinctively hoped that those monsters who didn't do evil and shouldn't be killed could stay away from him.

Better stay away from humans.

He is obviously a demon, why must he hide his identity and mix among humans?

Xie Ze gently stretched out his hand, and stroked the fluffy feathers of Lian Qi's little bat wings.

Then, Lian Qi, who was disturbed, moved his body.

Xie Ze's fingers froze.

Lian Qi, who was in a daze, was instinctively looking for food. He lost too much blood and his body was too weak, so he transformed into this form to maintain his life.

The little bat flapped its wings twice, and hugged Xie Ze's index finger step by step.

The two pointed small teeth inherited the sharpness of the vampire, piercing the skin of the finger effortlessly, leaving two small wounds.

Two drops of blood burst out, and soon melted into a large drop.

Xie Ze felt a slight tingling pain, and then found Lian Qi's little bat sticking out its soft tongue, gently licking the blood from his fingertips.

The wet and warm feeling came from the fingers, like a feather scratching on it, and at the same time scratching in the heart.

Lian Qi's little bat is not big, and he doesn't eat much at a time after being weak for too long. After licking a few drops of blood, it is enough. He licked the wound lightly, and then curled up into a small ball again , fell asleep in the soft quilt.

Xie Ze felt a soft emotion in his heart.

He sighed softly, pulled a corner of the quilt to cover Lian Qi's body, then lay down gently, and also fell asleep.
