Blood Hunt Covenant

Ten years later.

"Attention everyone! I'm going to enter the atmosphere in 3 minutes! Ah, I'm going back to this planet again. I'm really excited. I remember that time..." An unusually lively electronic sound echoed throughout the battleship.

"Thank you, Honey." Brady sat in the captain's seat, and smoothly called up the control panel to input instructions, "Switch to manual mode."

"Hey! This time I won't allow... beep—"

After the electronic busy tone, Brady's voice took over the battleship's central control system: "The first team is ready to conduct an attitude check."

"The attitude check is completed, and the orbit switch can be performed."

"Switch track, adjust angle."

"Atmospheric entry in 60 seconds"

"The angle has been adjusted."

"Prepare for the first deceleration. The second group pays attention to the surface state of the battleship."

"Atmospheric entry in 30 seconds."

"Prepare for the second deceleration."

……

The warship hovered over the air port smoothly, and finally landed lightly on the ground, with only a small gust of air around it, and it landed perfectly.

The people on the ship left their posts and gathered in the control room, and Brady did not stop them, because this was an exciting moment for everyone—the return to their former homeland after ten years.

Brady looked up at the huge virtual screen that surrounded the control room, which showed a panoramic view of the current state of the New Earth—a gray area, covered with dust and lifeless as far as the eye could see.

But it's better than before, at least the sun can see through, Brady thought.Unlike the others, this isn't his first return to New Earth, but it's the first time he's actually landed on the ground.The previous few times, almost all of them had just arrived, and Zero took him back to the ship waiting outside, staying for less than 1 second—because the new earth at that time seemed to make people stay for a while longer. Death by suffocation, even with full protection.

Facing the expectant eyes of everyone, Brady stood up: "Welcome home! Although we still have an interstellar pirate, Yarlin, who needs to be searched and captured, we have 24 hours of rest before that."

The control room burst into cheers, and Brady left the control room amidst the laughter.

"I really don't understand human beings. There is nothing interesting here right now. What is there to be happy about?" Zero stood outside the control room with his arms folded, frowning, out of tune with the whole atmosphere.

"Probably being able to rest is enough to make people happy." Brady said with a smile, and pressed the headset. The protective clothing unfolded from the spine and covered him from head to toe. "He Ziqi said, I'll go back to the headquarters."

"Ah, I see. You really can't wait." Zero said lazily.

======

Glory City, covered with thick dust, no longer has the light of the past. All the streets and buildings are indistinguishable, lifeless and unrecognizable.Brady could only find the original headquarters of the Legion of Honor by following the route he remembered.

When he saw the familiar glass door, Brady was excited.Because the dust accumulated in front of the door seems to be less than other places, and the door seems to have been wiped.

Brady ran over excitedly, and the sound of the recognition system running made him even more convinced.However, after the long electronic sound of the system, there was a "crack", and the door did not move - it was stuck because it had not been used for a long time.That made Brady feel doomed, but not all hope was lost.

He finally opened the door with the key, and the pile of ash piled up at the door poured into the door.But other than that, the rest of the door is still clean, with no traces of being contaminated by dust.Although he knew that this was the result of the superior dust-proof system of the building, Brady still hoped that it was the result of regular cleaning.

Just go look there, the basement.

Thinking about it, Brady touched the underground garage with a flashlight.In front of the secret basement door, he suddenly felt in a trance.

What am I here for?

Ah yes, to see if Yang is back.

Jan...

Brady suddenly became uncertain.Ten years had already wiped out the image of Xiao Feiyang in his mind. He tried to find some portraits of Xiao Feiyang, but found nothing.Recently, he sometimes even thought that Xiao Feiyang was actually his hallucination, his vision and auditory hallucinations.

However, what kind of hallucinations can make people have such obsessions, even if they don't happen again in ten years, they can still be remembered?

Jan, did you really exist, was it real?If yes, why did you leave me?If not, why can't I always forget you?

The huge black life support chamber was placed in the center of the basement. Just like before, Brady walked over with a sigh, and touched the cold and smooth roof with his fingers.

"You're still here." Brady whispered softly, "So, is he still here, the vampire who can control time?"

"Of course!" Lu Ziqi's almost inaudible laughter came from the communicator, "That's the king of vampires! You still have 15 minutes, I hope he can give you more time, Brady."

Fifteen minutes is more than enough, Brady thought.I took out five amplifiers from the bag at my waist, measured them with my feet around the life support chamber, simulated the approximate position and size of the magic circle in my head, and fixed the amplifiers on the corresponding nodes...
