Chapter 50 The Duke's Invitation 20
Nick narrowed his eyes slightly and licked his canine teeth frivolously.
Except for him, everyone present noticed the wood in the youth's hand.
In this world, the yew tree has long been extinct, and all the blood races know about it from books and the teachings of their elders.
Red bark, hard texture, it must grow in the purest soil, it has existed long before the birth of the vampire.
According to theological records, the tall and straight branches, together with the holy white crystal, were used as arrows to kill demons, so it was called holy wood.
And when the gods cast the curse, the yew forest became a prison that prevented the ancestors from escaping.
Its deterrent to the blood race is just like the influence of the ancestors on the blood race, it is engraved in their blood from beginning to end.
"Is this really the Holy Wood?"
"It's very similar to what's written in the book, and, and I'm all weak now..."
"How could Mr. Mino have it, and where did he get it?"
There was a buzzing buzz in Li Yu's ears, and his subordinates discussed in a low voice, and suddenly changed from a protector to a repellant, staying eight feet away from him.
Ying Han was the closest to Li Yu, and his brain began to throb, but in order to protect the safety of the youth, he resisted and did not leave.
After awakening the blood of the ancestor, he inherited the memory of the ancestor.
Unstoppable in front of him, the scene of the first ancestor lying in a yew forest appeared.
His eyes were full of hatred, and his face was full of unwillingness and anger. He didn't want to be a monster, but he couldn't resist the punishment of the gods. The ordinary trees around him seemed to be stained with holy light, which made him fear and suffer.
At the same time, it also inspired the deepest resistance and killing in his heart.
The panting behind him became violent, Li Yu grasped the wood tightly, and his mind became a mess of porridge.
It is good to know the role of wood, but he has also become the object of all the blood races.
A piece of wood made everyone so nervous. If I took out the Holy Grail again... I was so excited before, and I was only covered in cold sweat.
The atmosphere on the second floor became weird, everyone's heart strings were taut, and they were full of fear for young people.
Nick's eyes swept across everyone playfully, and he sneered, "My brother, I can see from your stupid expression, you don't know it."
He laughed happily, trying to irritate the other party with words, "Let me guess, why did he secretly hide the sacred wood, oh, he must want to kill you quietly while you are asleep."
Li Yu rolled his eyes and refused to be splashed with dirty water, "Dude, you are wrong, this thing is specially used to gag your mouth."
As soon as he finished speaking, the man who had been standing behind him quickly passed him.
Nick was already prepared, showing his fangs and taking the lead in throwing a fist.
Ying Han neatly cut off his fist halfway, and at the same time held the opponent's arm and threw the person out.
The sturdy body smashed a hole in the wall, the wall cracked, and then collapsed.
Nick got up from the ground, the dislocated bones on his arms and thighs creaked, and the fresh human blood made him much stronger than before.
"Dis, are you capable of that?" He walked out of the shards of the wall, supported his neck and moved back and forth, preparing for a big fight.
Li Yu quietly touched the back of a vampire subordinate and poked the other party's back, "Cover, I'm going downstairs."
The subordinate glanced at the Duke, received the other's gaze, forcibly restrained the fainting, and covered the youth with his body.
Nick glanced contemptuously, "This is the human being you raised, just like your mother, timid, cowardly, and trash."
Ying Han smiled instead of anger, his dark eyes tended to turn red, and the surrounding temperature plummeted.
The subordinates standing behind him seemed to have a premonition, and quickly backed away, and immediately saw His Excellency the Duke, like a shadow, moving in front of Nick, reaching out and clasping his Adam's apple.
Bloodshots climbed up the man's scarlet pupils, his five fingers folded together, the corners of his mouth turned up happily despite his ruthless movements.
Nick frowned in pain, raised his knees to attack Ying Han's lower abdomen, and at the same time digged his hands towards his chest.
The sharp nails of the blood race easily penetrate the cloth, and blood seeps out.
This perishing style of play is straightforward and enjoyable, but not wise.
The two obviously realized this, raised their feet together, kicked each other, flew out, and landed steadily.
Nick stared at Ying Han's bloody chest with regret, raised his hand and licked his fingers, "A bastard like you is not worthy of leading a vampire!"
"What about the ancestors, without the blood of human beings, your power has always been stagnant." He pulled out the pocket towel in disgust and wiped the blood from his hands, "Di Si, you can't kill me."
Ying Han didn't speak, he let go of his five senses and searched for the trace of the young man by panting his breath.
At this time, in the living room on the first floor, Mi Yue had calmed down, while the subordinates who were guarding her were absent-minded.
The sound of fighting upstairs resounded after a short pause. Judging from the sound, the difference in strength between the two was very small.
Nick is much stronger than he was years ago, and everyone knows why.
The blood race is born with living people as prey, and the warm blood of human beings can quickly replenish their physical strength and improve their combat effectiveness.
Thinking of this, several people subconsciously looked at the woman on the sofa, swallowed their saliva, turned their faces away, and their eyes just fell on the kitchen.
A thin, slender young man is chopping wood with an axe.
The light scent of wood did not make them feel good, but instead gave them fear and wanted to run away.
The superior's order could not be disobeyed, and several people suppressed their hearts, forcibly calmed down, and stood still.
The yew tree in my hand is probably too old, old and hard to split at all, so I can only try other methods.
Li Yu searched the kitchen for a long time before finding a western knife, which was difficult to operate.
After a lot of hard work, only a little bark was cut off, but several holes were made in the hands, and the smell of blood made the blood clan's subordinates in the living room.
One of them couldn't bear it anymore and pretended to cough, "Madam, let's search the first floor again."
Mi Yue was in a trance, and her son went downstairs and said that there was no shadow of the Grace family upstairs, so where would they go? Have they escaped?
She shook her head, physically and mentally exhausted, everything that happened today was too unbelievable, the black crow, these people around, and the loud noise upstairs, everything was telling her that her son was hiding something from her.
Miyue stood up and walked into the kitchen, "What are you doing."
Li Yu hissed and moved his numb fingers, "Nothing."
He raised his head and looked at Mi Yue's pale face, feeling a little distressed, "Mom, can I have someone take you back."
He had a bad feeling.
Nick couldn't come and set up an ambush alone, there must be someone behind him.
At this moment, Mi Yue suddenly turned around and ran back to the living room.
There was a very weak cry in the room, it was a little girl.
"It's Lisa." She whispered, followed the sound and ran to the door leading to the basement, and walked down decisively.
Li Yu was afraid that his mother was in danger, so he had to put away the wood and chase after it.
In the basement, Miyue and two other blood clans were carefully searching.
This place has been searched once before, but didn't hear any crying, and didn't see any little girl. was wondering, and the crying stopped for a moment, and it sounded again.
The sound came from a safe.
The safe is square and has an overall structure. Without tools, no one dared to rashly attack it for fear of hurting the children inside.
Li Yu came running out of breath, took out the hammer when no one was paying attention, pointed the tip of the hammer at the lock cylinder, and smashed it down with all his strength—
The lock cylinder does not move.
The two subordinates sniffed in the air carefully, and turned their eyes around the young man a few times to make sure that the holy wood was not on him, so they approached and stretched out their hands, "Mr. Mino, give it to me."
Li Yu threw the hammer directly.
The first time, the lock cylinder was smashed into a recess, and the little girl who was hidden in it didn't know whether she was frightened or had an accident, and stopped crying.
Miyue hurriedly urged, "Can you hurry up?"
The subordinate tightened the tool in his hand, and after several consecutive blows, the lock was broken.
Without waiting for Mi Yue to leave, Li Yu took the lead in opening the safe, and the rich blood rushed out.
Inside was a little girl covered in blood, covering her mouth tightly, her eyes wide in horror.
In this way, at first glance, he was too frightened and stupid.
"Lisa, don't be afraid, I'm Brother Mi." Li Yu comforted her gently, stretched out his hand to hug him, and was bitten hard, seeing blood on the spot.
Miyue asked a few words distressedly, and after making sure her son was all right, squatted in front of the safe.
The woman's gentle voice, like a clear stream and clear water, slowly dilutes the little girl's fear.
Miyue took the child out and saw clearly through the dim light in the basement that the little girl's leg was injured, as if she had been scratched, and the trouser legs were stained with blood.
Touching the warm embrace, Lisa began to sob softly, clutching Miyue and burying her head in her chest.
Miyue patted her back to reassure her, "Lisa, tell Auntie, where are Mom and Dad?"
Lisa was trembling all over, her pupils were constricted, and she screamed so loudly, one after another, that it could pierce people's ears.
Li Yu looked at her pale face and asked the system in her heart, "Is something wrong with Aunt Grace?"
1551, "Dead."
Li Yu felt cold in his heart and clenched his fists. In the memory of the original owner, Aunt Grace's family was very good, especially when Minuo was young, he often gave some food to the mother and son.
"How did you die, and where is the body?"
"exist……"
As soon as the system said a word, the ceiling above his head suddenly shook, followed by the sound of messy and hurried footsteps.
The faces of several blood clan subordinates sank, and they said with disgust, "This smell is so fucking stinky."
Mi Yue looked at her son in panic, her unease became stronger and stronger, "What happened?"
Li Yu knew the shit and looked at a few people, "What's the situation?"
"I don't know." One of them looked ugly, "Leave first."
It can be seen from the other party's face that things are not so simple, Li Yu followed and climbed upstairs, and quickly went through all the things that happened after coming to this world in his mind.
Opening the basement door, he suddenly said, "Those who were assimilated?"
If the Caesar Hotel only starts with game players, the number of people who will be assimilated should be small. If they are so mad that they don't let go of the guests, the consequences will be terrible.
Nick is equivalent to having a death squad that is not afraid of death, but only wants to see blood.
There is a saying that the more you are afraid of something, the more you will come.
A group of people just walked out of the aisle, when a person rushed towards them.
His skin was pale, his eyes were red, his mouth was wide open, revealing two fangs, and he was about to bite when he opened his mouth.
The troublesome thing is that before this one was opened, a few more rushed up from behind, and a few more... The narrow aisle was quickly crowded with people, and it was impossible to get out.
Li Yufei kicked one away, put Miyue behind him, and said to the buddy next to him, "Stand back, I'll take out the guy."
The man was stunned, remembered something, and backed away in horror.
The heavy wood appeared out of thin air, and the woody fragrance spread rapidly.
Densely attacking their assimilation people, like mosquitoes encountering mosquito coils, they retreated crazily, and almost had a stampede.
Several subordinates were also far away from him out of instinct. Seeing the young man approaching, they shivered hopelessly.
Li Yu weighed the things in his hand and raised his chin, "I'll go ahead and open the way, you follow me."
The group walked to the living room, and before they could catch their breath, the ceiling suddenly pierced and two people fell.
Ying Han picked up Nick's collar and slammed into the window with ferocity. A big hole was broken in the good glass, and the shattered glass that was propped up around it, the people who flew out of it were scratched all over.
The man turned his head, glanced in the direction of the young man, glanced at the yew in the other's hand, pursed his open mouth, and turned his head and got out of the window.
"Are you really so afraid of this thing?" Li Yu stretched out his hand to the next door.
The man's face became more and more ugly, his calf was pierced, and he almost knelt down and called Dad.
Not only him, all the surrounding blood races, including the assimilation people, are all paralyzed.
The soft scent is poisonous to them, and they will be smoked to death.
Li Yu had a sympathetic look on his face, "I will bear it again, I will put it away when I leave here."
The subordinates' faces turned green, and they couldn't walk well, they had to hold on to the wall.
Li Yu, "..."
Li Yu pretended not to see it, and walked out of the living room full of assimilated people with a group of people if they passed the realm of no one.
In the distant grove, trees swayed and sometimes fell.
Li Yu lowered his head. On the grass, blood dripped all the way. He didn't know whether it was from Yinghan or the second child of Wannian.
The assimilation people were afraid of the holy wood and did not dare to move forward, forming a circle, surrounded by greed and fear, waiting for an opportunity to act.
Li Yu's eyes were fixed, "Jack."
The rest of the people also looked over, and one of the vampires let out a weak voice, "The castle must have been attacked!"
Li Yu, "How do you know?"
The man stared at the red-brown lump in the young man's hand and swallowed, "Jack has been in the laboratory below the basement. The laboratory is fully guarded and patrolled by guards. Even if he runs out of the laboratory, he cannot escape. out of the castle..."
Li Yu twitched the corner of his mouth and asked the system, "Why didn't I know there was a laboratory."
1551, "Just below the dungeon where Jack has been kept as a sample since he was captured."
Li Yu, "...poor Jack."
Staring at Jack for a few seconds, he asked again, "What's the situation now, assimilation failed?"
Jack is no different from the assimilated people around him. Except for hunger and urgency, there is no human emotion on his face.
1551 said, "Yes, after the cells fuse to 85, the two types of cells begin to phagocytose each other, which will seriously affect their bodily functions. All the organs that assimilate people will rapidly fail until they die."
Li Yu frowned, "There is no solution?"
The system gives a negative answer.
Li Yu looked around in a daze, and tightened his fingers holding the holy wood, "There is holy water in the holy grail, isn't it? What about the holy wood?"
1551, "Holy Water and Holy Wood Only Kill Them"
Li Yu's eyes darkened. He never knew that someone could do such despicable and vicious things for their own selfish desires.
There was a sudden roar from the tree ahead.
The vampires in a circle seemed to feel it, but they were unwilling but had to give up their prey and rushed towards the woods.
Li Yu left Yew Shan to Mi Yue, "You stay here, I'll be back soon."
Miyue took her son's hand and kept shaking her head, "It's too dangerous, don't go, you're different from them, Nuonuo, listen to your mother."
Li Yu leaned over and kissed her forehead, "Don't worry, I'll be fine."
Mi Yue pursed her lips and asked him, "You told me there were vampires before, was it true? Then why are you still..."
"No reason." Li Yu broke away from her hand, turned and ran.
Countless assimilates, after being summoned, rushed into the woods frantically and fought with the seriously injured Ying Han.
Nick closed his eyes in pain and leaned against a tree.
There were many large and small wounds on his body, but the most painful thing was that his Adam's apple was almost pulled out, dark blood flowed down his neck into his shirt, and his pale face was covered with a layer of dead ash.
When Li Yu arrived, he happened to see Wannian's second child bullying more and less, which was shameless.
Smelling the taste of the food, assimilates the green light in the human eye, and without hesitation, changed the target and chased after the young man.
Li Yu stopped in his forward steps, and with a large group of tails, ran to the depths of the woods opposite to Ying Han.
Human's footsteps are too slow, but Li Yu was caught up with only two or three hundred meters.
He gritted his teeth and forced himself to calm down, thinking about what other props could be used.
Hammer can't solve so many at once, the only thing that can come in handy is the Holy Grail.
The Holy Grail is a life-saving tool and can only be used once. If you use it this time, you will die if you encounter danger in the future.
1551, "The target can actually handle it, you don't need to divert these things at all."
Li Yu didn't have time to pay attention to him, and when he looked back, he was paralyzed, and an assimilate's hand almost touched his ass.
He accelerated under his feet, suddenly turned into a monkey, and climbed up a big tree with both hands and feet.
The assimilation person has no thinking, and did not expect to climb a tree, but just stretched out his hand and kept screaming and scratching.
Li Yu grabbed the tree trunk above his head tightly and looked up at Jack who was standing in it.
Jack is a little talker, but he can feel that he is a kind person. Unfortunately, fate is always naughty, and everyone below has been tricked by him, falling from heaven to hell.
Recalling that he had played poker with Jack not long ago, Li Yu felt a fire in his heart.
The Holy Grail can't be used, and he will use it to completely kill the million-year-old second child.
Li Yu turned around and stared at a branch in front of him, rubbing his hands to do psychological construction for himself.
Don't be afraid, what I can do is to swing on a swing and be afraid of hair.
He closed his eyes, took a deep breath, kicked the branches hard, and rose into the air.
The wind whistled in his ears, and the howling from below continued. At that moment, Li Yu really felt that he was old-fashioned.
The ankle suddenly tightened, and the body was pulled down by a force.
Li Yu didn't even bother to scold. When people are unlucky, drinking water will not stick between their teeth, but will be choked to death.
On his back, the pain penetrated from his bones into his internal organs, and the pain was so painful that he couldn't even shout.
More than a dozen heads rushed towards him, their mouths wide open, drooling, and a stench emanated from their mouths.
Li Yu thought to himself, I wasn't bitten to death and my blood was drained, but I was smoked to death.
Out to mix, sooner or later have to repay.
He used yew to almost vomit the subordinates of Assimilation and Ying Han. Now that he is healed, the retribution comes really fast.
"You really don't need life-saving props?" 1551 said faintly.
Li Yu tried his best to kick one, but he was still hesitating.
A sharp stabbing pain came from the ankle, and it was Jack.
Jack held his calf in both hands and opened his mouth to reveal his fangs. Li Yu raised his heart to his throat, "1551, Holy Grail, give me the cards!"
While the card was being squeezed in his hand, he saw an extra hand on top of Jack's head.
The black nails slammed into the hard skull, and with a creaking sound, the head was forcibly twisted, pulled away from the neck, and flew out.
Blood spurted out of the neck artery, nourishing everywhere, and the body without the head fell to the ground, still squirming.
Ying Han's pupils turned blood red, and the evil spirit overflowed, as if a different person had changed.
