"Don't go!" Seeing that Anna was about to leave, Van Helsing hurriedly pulled her back. "In addition to Dracula, there's another demon hiding in the dark. If you go, you'll definitely be in danger!"
"But what can I do?" Anna roared at him, "My brother is the only family I have left. How can I watch him turn into an irrational beast?!"
In grief, Anna knelt on the ground, held her face, and cried. "God! What mistake did I make for you to torture me like this? "
Van Helsing was speechless. Although the church wanted to mend the fence after the sheep were lost, it was true that they had washed their hands of the Villelis family for hundreds of years. If not for this, the Villelis family would not have become so withered. He had no reason to stop Anna from saving her only relative.
After venting for a while, Anna stood up again, wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, picked up her weapon, and went on her way without looking back. She did not even say a word to Van Helsing and Carl.
Van Helsing was lying on the ground. Carl was anxiously trying to stop the bleeding when he suddenly realized that the bullet was slowly being squeezed out of the wound on Van Helsing's chest!
He was so surprised that he wanted to cry out, but Van Helsing covered his mouth and whispered, "Shh! Pretend that I'm dying! "
Carl was not stupid. Seeing this, he immediately came back to his senses and shouted with the potential of an Oscar winner, "Oh my god, I … I can't stop the bleeding! Damn it, that bastard injured your artery … "
While yelling, Carl was still fiddling with Van Helsing's body in a flurry.
"Don't … don't waste your energy, Carl …" Van Helsing was also on the verge of death as he said to Carl, "After dawn … you … you go back to the church and report to them … what happened here. I … I'm so cold. I'll … rest first …"
However, Van Helsing immediately lowered his head, closed his eyes, and stopped moving.
But in the dark night, one could see that Van Helsing was holding a bottle of holy water tightly in his hand …
Roy's memory was correct. Van Helsing was indeed an angel incarnation, but there was one mistake. Not only was Van Helsing an angel incarnation, but he was also one of the incarnations of the famous Archangel Gabriel! He had always been called the left hand of God! Legend has it that he quarreled with God because he refused to accept the sanction of Rome, and was banished to the world to temper his mind.
More than four hundred years ago, before Dracula sold his soul to the demon, Van Helsing, who had transformed into a human, was still a good friend of Dracula. At that time, Dracula was also a believer of God. However, when he was fighting heresy for the church, the enemy spread rumors that Dracula had died in battle, causing his wife to commit suicide.
When Dracula returned victorious, all he saw was his wife's corpse. In his grief, the people of the church told him that his wife had committed suicide, so her soul could not ascend to heaven.
How could this be tolerated? In a fit of rage, Dracula killed the members of the church on the spot. He believed that he was doing things for God, but God was unable to protect his wife and even rejected her in death. What was the point of believing in such a God?
From that day on, Dracula became an enemy of the church. He led his army and launched a war against the church.
Then, Van Helsing, who was on the side of the church, could only become his opponent. After a tragic war, Van Helsing personally killed Dracula and took away the emblem of the knights on Dracula's finger. It was also when he was dying that Dracula used his blood to attract a demon and sold his soul to the demon in exchange for resurrection. The demon used his blood to turn Dracula into a vampire.
As for Van Helsing, although he won the battle, he did not win the heart of God, so he had to continue training. In the end, he was severely injured in the battle with Dracula. When he recovered, he lost his memory and was thrown at the door of the church. After being accepted by the church, he became a member of the church's Knights of Divine Order, a hired thug who specialized in fighting monsters for the church around the world.
Although he had become a human, Van Helsing still had the power of an angel. In addition to his extraordinary agility, Van Helsing also had a long lifespan and a body that could quickly recover from injuries. Otherwise, he would have died in the process of fighting monsters for so many years.
Under Roy's instructions, Lucius had been lying in ambush here and suddenly shot Van Helsing twice. Although he hit him, he could not kill him. While lying on the ground, Van Helsing's wounds had begun to heal slowly.
However, Van Helsing could smell the aura of a demon in the surrounding air, and it was much stronger than when Lucius appeared alone. Therefore, even though he could not see clearly at night, Van Helsing suspected that the demon hiding behind Lucius was nearby! He suspected that the demon's real target might be him, so he got Karl to cooperate with him and start acting, hoping to lure the demon out by pretending to be dead. At that time, he would use the holy water in his hand to teach the demon a lesson …
However, as time passed, Karl's tearful acting gradually failed, but the demon did not appear!
The scene was very awkward, and Van Helsing wondered if he had guessed wrong.
What he did not know was that Roy was indeed there, but the problem was that Roy was not fooled at all!
It was not a problem with Karl's acting, but Roy did not believe that Van Helsing would be killed so easily by two bullets. Therefore, he hid in a nearby tree and watched. With his night vision, his vision was unhindered at night. No matter how Van Helsing acted, he still needed to breathe, and the rise and fall of his chest could not lie.
If you want to act, then act. Anyway, I'll just watch and not say anything. Roy even wanted to eat some melon seeds …
As long as he hung here, the demon aura would exist, and Van Helsing would not dare to leave. As time passed, the distance between Anna and Van Helsing would increase, and he would not be able to catch up even if he wanted to.
As for rushing down to see if he could kill Van Helsing, Roy had not thought about it for the time being. Staying in Lucius's manor for the past two days, he had experimented with some things, such as garlic, silver stakes, and crosses. Roy did not know if these things were useful against vampires, but they were useless against a demon like him. Only holy water was like sulfuric acid to a demon!
Take note, this was real holy water, not the "holy water" that the Church used to fool the believers with just a little salt. The real holy water was holy water with blessing and purification, containing the power of the Holy Light!
The holy water that Roy got Lucius to get was from the town's church. Perhaps because the people in this town were often harassed by vampires, the people here were quite devout in their faith in God, so the holy water produced by the church was very effective. Roy had only touched a little bit of it, and he was in so much pain that he wanted to die.
It could not be helped. This was a common weakness of all demons, and Roy could not avoid it.
Therefore, Roy was not afraid of the other weapons on Van Helsing's body, but he was quite afraid of the holy water he might be carrying. Without confidence, Roy could not act rashly.
Thus, he quietly spent two hours here with Van Helsing before quietly leaving with Lucius for Dracula's castle.
It wasn't until the demonic smell in the air slowly dissipated that Van Helsing suddenly stood up, startling Karl.
"What happened? Why did you pretend to be dead for so long? My throat is hoarse from crying … "Carl asked, puzzled.
"There's a demon who has been staying nearby …" Van Helsing answered with a puzzled expression.
"Ah!?" Karl was shocked. He quickly took out a cross and held it in his hand.
"Don't worry, he's already left!" Van Helsing waved his hand. "I thought his target was me, so I pretended to be dead to lure him out. But I didn't expect him to keep watch and not act rashly. Now, he left without even showing his face …"
"Is that so?" Carl heaved a sigh of relief and asked, "By the way, what happened to your body? I see that your gunshot wound has healed. "
