In the cargo ship's warehouse.
Grina stared at the female Blood Breed who was walking towards her. She was only a Lower Level Blood Breed, but that strange feeling, that strange sense of familiarity, made her think of something.
"What, you can't recognize me?" The female Blood Breed stopped and stood ten meters away from her. For a Higher Level Blood Breed, this position could be reached in an instant.
"So, what about this?" The female Blood Breed smiled, and her face melted like a candle, automatically forming a new face as if it had a life of its own.
This face was so familiar that before it was fully formed, Grina took a step back with a look of surprise on her face.
"You … You're Tu Lan!!?" Her voice even had a hint of sharpness.
"Give me the mask," Tu Lan reached out her hand, the smile on her face unchanged.
"What are you talking about? What mask? " Grina narrowed her eyes, cold sweat seeping out of her back. Her hands behind her back were clenched tightly.
"Why ask when you already know?" Tu Lan looked around, "It should be in this warehouse, right? Hurry up, I don't want to fight with an old friend. "
"If you don't want to fight, then go back. With your current strength and level, why do you still want to work for the Holy Fist Palace? " Grina silently observed her surroundings, in case anyone else appeared, or was looking for a chance to escape.
"Work for?" Tu Lan smiled even sweeter, "I'm doing it willingly now. What place in this world can give me more happiness than the Holy Fist Palace?"
Sizzle …!
Just then, the hull of the ship tilted and was stirred up by the strong wind and waves.
Grina instinctively regained her footing, and suddenly lost sight of Tu Lan. She suddenly became alert and stepped back, at the same time, her arms blocking in front of her.
Bam!!!
A long, slender leg slammed into her arms, from top to bottom, like a battle axe.
The long leg and arms collided, making a dull and strong sound of impact.
Tu Lan jumped, turned around quickly, and kicked again.
She was extremely fast, and her movements seemed to leave afterimages. A series of shadows appeared behind her, and she did not stop at all.
Bam!! There was another sound of a block.
Side kick, downward kick, downward chop. The order of the combinations was completely different. Tu Lan's legs alternated and attacked Grina like a storm.
"It's still the same as when we were young …" While Tu Lan was attacking, a trace of nostalgia appeared in her eyes.
Grina retreated and bumped into the container behind her. She quickly dodged.
Crack!
The container was directly smashed into smithereens. A large number of glass canned beans were scattered all over the ground.
"Tu Lan …" Galina stared at her with an ugly expression. "Why … Why would someone as powerful as you submit to the Holy Fist Palace?!"
The two of them abruptly separated and stood a few meters apart.
"Why?" Tu Lan tapped her chin with her index finger, looking thoughtful. "You can ask me that question after you defeat me." She smiled. "We grew up together since we were young. Let's stick to the old rules."
Grina didn't say anything more. Instead, she bowed slightly.
She didn't understand. She didn't understand why such a powerful Tu Lan would choose to join an organization founded by humans.
Ever since they were young, they had participated in swordsmanship lessons together, but she had never won against her. Ever since they were young, Tu Lan was like the strongest ruler that could never be defeated. She stood tall in her heart. Perhaps it wasn't just her, but also the group of girls who grew up together with her.
Tu Lan was always the strongest representative!
Even though so many years had passed, and most of the girls from back then had disappeared, the light of the past was something that could never be forgotten.
Powerful, beautiful, languid. She was like a goddess that couldn't be looked at directly.
Grina had always been chasing after Tu Lan's back. Ever since she became a Blood Breed, she had never stopped.
Now, Tu Lan had even become a Death Apostle, crossing the huge gap that could be called a natural chasm. No matter when, she was always so beautiful and powerful.
Looking at her former good friend in front of her, Tu Lan's heart was filled with emotions.
They grew up together thousands of years ago, experienced the chaos of war, lived in the cities of ancient Greece for decades, and struggled to survive the chaos of the Blood Breeds together. That period of time would always be the most unforgettable for her.
She took care of them, ever since they were young, and whenever there was trouble, she would always step forward, making all the girls only see her as the strongest and most perfect person. She was always smiling, always dazzling, always fearless …
But no one knew that even she would be afraid, would be afraid … What they saw was always her perfect side.
"Grina, give up … Hand over the mask, and I'll go easy on you."
Tu Lan's right leg drew an arc in the air, the speed still bringing out overlapping shadows, as if there were countless long legs stacked together.
What answered her was a ferocious knee strike.
Grina rushed out, raising her right knee and grabbing at Tu Lan's shoulders with both hands.
Bam!
Her knee was blocked, and the two were tangled together, arms and legs colliding violently, a series of violent explosions exploding between the two of them.
Thud!
Tu Lan's fist landed on Grina's body, but it made a wood-like sound. Grina's abdomen that was hit quickly turned into wood, and then the broken area recovered, growing new wood-like flesh. In the blink of an eye, she was back to her original state.
"Hardwood, huh? Grina, you're still so naive … "Tu Lan licked her lips.
Psst!
Her body suddenly dragged out a long shadow, as if she had split into three or four people, circling around Grina, and then the three or four people collided in the middle at the same time.
Grina's body flew into the air, just in time to avoid the attack. She shook out a silver chain in her hand, and was about to throw it around, but she suddenly felt a pain in her head, and her movements paused.
Pfft!!
A sharp pain spread from her chest to her entire body.
Grina was kicked in the chest by Tu Lan, who had appeared in an instant, and her entire body shot out like a cannonball, crashing into the metal roof of the warehouse and sinking in.
Following the crisp sound of leather boots, Tu Lan walked to the wall below her, and looked up.
"Pure speed and strength, is this the power of your Blood Breed Holy Technique? Looks like we're really sisters, even the paths we take are so similar. Or rather, we used to be so similar. "
Seeing the disappointment in Grina's eyes, Tu Lan suddenly felt irritated. She wasn't some perfect standard, she was also a normal person, she could be happy, afraid, angry, jealous. Why did these people always beautify her time and time again, trying to instill their own false impressions in her, and then showing her disappointed eyes again and again?
That sister was like that, and now Grina was like that!!
"Don't look at me like that …" The smile on her face disappeared.
Grina, however, acted as if she didn't hear it. She had only just entered the upper position, and her actual combat ability wasn't that strong, so she was only in charge of spying this time and didn't participate in the battle. Now that she was facing Tu Lan's level suppression, even her body felt a little sluggish, and she couldn't move.
But she acted as if she didn't hear it, and continued to stare at Tu Lan quietly with a disappointed gaze.
"I said, don't look at me like that!!" Tu Lan suddenly got angry, her body leaving behind a shadow, and appeared in front of her, giving her a hard elbow strike.
Poof!
Fresh blood spurted out from Grina's mouth, splattering all over Tu Lan. Under the level suppression, even if she was an upper Blood Breed, her blood had lost its vitality, and couldn't automatically return to her body. She could only lose a lot of blood like a normal person.
"Grina …" Tu Lan seemed to wake up after being sprayed with fresh blood, and a hint of heartache flashed through her eyes.
She reached out and gently touched Grina's face.
"Why are you so stubborn?"
Grina still didn't speak, and only stared at her quietly, with a hint of disappointment and sorrow in her eyes.
"What a … disgusting gaze!" Rip!
Tu Lan tore off Grina's clothes, leaving her upper body completely naked. She roughly reached out and pinched Grina's chest.
"Where's the mask?"
“.....”
Hiss!!
Blood splattered everywhere.
Tu Lan actually tore off Grina's left chest in one go.
There was no pity in her eyes, no hesitation, only coldness.
"Tell me, where's the mask?"
Grina's forehead was covered in sweat from the pain. She took a few deep breaths, gritted her teeth, and turned her head away.
"If only it was Rosina. If it was her, she would have told me long ago …" Tu Lan said calmly. Looking at Grina's stubborn face, she faintly sank into her memories.
"The Sleepless Faces will push the Blood Breeds into the bottomless abyss! As a Blood Breed, you're actually willing to work for a human, you traitor!! "Grina spat viciously, but Tu Lan dodged it.
"I'll follow whichever side can give me happiness. Whichever side can give me strength, I'll submit to that side. This logic is very simple, isn't it?" Tu Lan answered matter-of-factly.
The two of them were suspended on the metal wall of the warehouse. Tu Lan's hand went through the wall and hung in mid-air, while Grina was directly embedded into the wall, unable to move due to the level suppression.
"Looks like this is the only way …" Tu Lan calmed down, and a black vortex slowly appeared in her eyes as she met Grina's eyes.
Blood Breed Control, a special suppressive ability that only high level Blood Breeds could use on low level Blood Breeds. This was a natural ability, and was equivalent to human control.
But the strange thing was, there was only a faint mockery in Grina's eyes, and she was not affected by the Control at all.
"Give up. All of us upper level Blood Breeds who have secrets have received the temporary power boost from the Death Apostle Clan Leader, and are not affected by the Control."
Tu Lan snorted coldly, and stopped the Control.
The problem now was that she did not have enough time. If she could not find the mask quickly, her main body would be exhausted in two hours, and she had to rush back.
Bam!
She knocked Grina unconscious with a punch, dragged her down, and carried her on her shoulder as she floated down.
She had already completely controlled the surrounding guards with her illusion ability, and no sound could be heard from further away, so they had not been discovered by the Blood Breeds in other places.
Of course, even if they were discovered, she was not afraid. She could just forcefully take control of this ship.
However, it would take a lot of time to do so.
A fierce look flashed past her eyes. Tu Lan looked at the mountain of containers in the warehouse, and made a ruthless decision in her heart.
She took out the phone on her, and quickly checked if there were any surveillance cameras. Then, she immediately dialed a series of complicated numbers.
The call only rang once, and the other side immediately picked up.
"Madam Tu Lan?"
"Locate the location of my phone, and immediately send a ship to pick me up," Tu Lan said in a low voice.
The other side was silent for a while, as if they were locating the location. After a while.
"Understood. We will immediately mobilize the navy, and they will arrive in an hour."
"Remember to bring some navy personnel to take over the ship."
"Understood."
After the call ended, Tu Lan slowly pushed open the warehouse door with Grina on her shoulder, and her figure quickly disappeared from the corridor of the ship.
