The young ladies of the Blood Race were arrogant and cold. They would not care about the men they looked down on, no matter how they behaved. On the contrary, if they fell in love with someone of the opposite sex, they would not be able to stop themselves. They would be willing to become the other party's slave and give their body, mind, and soul to him.
The higher the status of the Blood Race young ladies, the higher their requirements. For a Blood Race young lady like Mu, unless they were stronger and more talented, she would not even look at them.
Li Xiang had saved her life and even dispersed the remnant soul of that ancestor, which was equivalent to helping her solve the biggest problems in the Death Omen Star Curtain. Plus, he had shown extraordinary strength, so it was normal for Mu to fall in love with him at first sight.
Werewolves looked unrestrained, but in terms of emotions, the Blood Race was more open. Mu's hug had indeed shortened the distance between her and Li Xiang, but she could also vaguely feel that this young man was different from those men who were blinded by lust. He had his own set of principles and standards. If she followed them, she would be safe. If she disobeyed them, there would only be one result.
And that was death!
"Master, where are we heading to?" Mu had Li Xiang's shirt draped over his shoulders. His snow-like feet stepped on the snowy ground, leaving behind a series of small footprints. Nassura followed closely behind. She adhered to her principles of not asking too much and not saying too much.
Li Xiang paused and turned around to look at her.
"How's the fusion of your right eye going?" he asked faintly.
Mu raised her small head and smiled. "In a few more hours, I will be able to completely digest everything that ancestor left behind."
"Very good. I am going to get a sacred relic, and I need your help. As long as you help me, I promise that when we leave the Death Omen Star Curtain, I will let you go." Li Xiang pulled the two iron chains, and the two girls staggered and fell to his feet.
"Yes, master!" They replied in unison, their voices filled with excitement and anticipation. To be able to search for a Sacred Relic with a human powerhouse, they might be able to obtain some opportunities in the process. As long as Li Xiang promised to let them go, they would have profited greatly.
The three of them continued on their way. With the guidance of the black box, Li Xiang was able to head in the direction of Fei Yujing and the others. Could it be that this girl was searching for the same holy relic as him?
That voice was filled with an irresistible meaning, as well as boundless charm, guiding him forward as if it was something left for him in the first place.
[Winter's Claw] was only a transit city. It was under the control of the Spatial Behemoth and would only be open to outsiders for seven days. While searching for the mysterious Holy Relic, he also had to take care of the time to ensure that he wouldn't be expelled. Although this rule didn't seem to apply to him right now, the more time he had, the better.
After passing through [Winter's Claw]'s main city, they soon saw the vast plain in the black box's vision.
Due to the terrain and climate, this plain was clearly adjacent to [Winter's Claw], but the surface was extremely dry, and there was a clear underground river flowing under the dry ground. The surrounding rugged mountains were lush, and there were towering ancient trees that covered the sky. The size of each tree was comparable to the super buildings in the numbered cities.
After entering the plain, Li Xiang took out a mask from the black box and put it on his face. He had too many enemies here, so it was better to cover his face just in case.
The two girls followed him, one on the left and one on the right. The iron chains and shackles made clanking sounds, attracting a lot of attention from the dark.
"Don't act rashly if no one is making a move." Li Xiang ordered them. The two girls were very aggressive, especially Mu. Her face was pale without a trace of blood. The previous battle and the battle with the right eye had consumed too much of her energy. Without blood to replenish her energy, her energy was slowly running out.
Nathoro wasn't any better. Werewolves replenished their energy by eating and drinking, but ever since she met Li Xiang, she hadn't eaten for a long time. It was just that it wasn't as bad as Mu.
"Yes, master." The two girls unwillingly looked away from the dark.
After rushing forward for a while, Li Xiang also noticed that something was wrong with them. After thinking for a while, he pointed at the ruins of the plain not far away and said, "There should be people there. I'll bring you there to replenish your energy."
"Thank you, master!" Mu licked her dry lips, and a trace of excitement appeared on her face.
The process of hunting was sometimes more fun than eating. She enjoyed the feeling of toying with her prey to death.
This was the nature of a hunter.
The three of them quickly ran into the ruins of the plain.
After Li Xiang activated [Sense Increase], even a Level-3 Magician's intuition wasn't as sensitive as his. He smelled a trace of disaster, and the dark golden aura in his body became restless. He had no choice but to go over and check it out.
Fei Yujing and the others slowed down a lot. It wasn't hard to catch up with them.
"Dylan, what the hell is this damn parchment? Why are those humans chasing after us?" A low female voice came from the front. It was a woman shrouded in black fog. Although most of her body was covered by the fog, it couldn't cover her beautiful figure and face.
"How would I know? Those humans are like mad dogs. We can't get rid of them. "
The one who spoke was a tall man who was panting heavily. He was also shrouded in black fog. He wore a black and gold armor that was commonly seen in the Middle Ages. There was nothing under the helmet, as if his body was just a wisp of black fog.
However, the body that supported the huge armor was as solid as a human's body.
"Black Knight? This is a Black Knight from the Evernight Continent, "Mu said in a low voice.
Nassero also explained, "Many of our continents were originally split from the Blue Planet. The Evernight Continent is one of them. It is said that the people living there are all Black Soul creatures. They only have human torsos and their heads are made of black fog."
"Can they be your food?" Li Xiang asked.
"Barely. They don't taste very good." Mu sighed. Fresh human blood was her favorite, but she didn't dare to make such a request to Li Xiang.
Nassero also nodded. She was unwilling, but she could accept it.
The two Black Knights who were still complaining didn't know that they had become the prey of a new group of enemies. In the Death Omen Star, the strongest were undoubtedly the human Magicians. Any other race would run away when they saw them. They didn't come with many people this time, and more than half of them were killed.
Whoosh!
Nassero launched a surprise attack.
The Shadow Wolf's burst of speed was very shocking. When the male Black Knight realized that someone was attacking, Nassero had already charged in front of him.
He pulled out his sword, but it was blocked by Nassero's arm. The werewolf's fur and muscles had high defense. Even the fangs of the Blood Race couldn't break through them easily. They were only afraid of the origin guns of humans. Other weapons weren't a threat to them.
The tip of the sword drew a string of sparks on her arm, and the two clashed.
"Dylan!" The female Black Knight stood up and slashed down with her two-handed sword like a whirlwind. Part of their body turned into black fog, so they were very fast. At the same time, they could also dodge some unexpected attacks.
The female Black Knight had just pounced out when she clashed with Mu, who was charging at her.
Mu sneered. Her sharp fingertips cut through the leather armor on her body as easily as cutting tofu.
The huge force made her arm numb. Dylan, who was known for his strength, was pushed to the ground by the female werewolf and couldn't move.
"The werewolves and the Blood Race worked together?" The female Black Knight was shocked. It was impossible for two races that were natural enemies to work together.
How bad was their luck?
"Darkness Oblivion!" Dylan roared angrily, and the armor on his chest made a loud noise. Runes that looked like magic runes appeared on it. However, before he could fully activate the runes, Nathra bit through his armor and pierced his heart with her sharp claws!
The Black Knight's abilities were very balanced. They were one of the few races that could control magic particles. However, this was also their fatal weakness. If their attacks were too long, they would be killed if the enemy found an opening.
To Dylan, Nassura was like an iron fortress. It was heavy and hard, and the armor protecting his body was like paper. It was torn apart by the werewolf's sharp claws.
Compared to Nassero's violent attacks, Mu was much more elegant.
She easily dodged the female Black Knight's attack. Then, she found an opportunity to get close. She opened her mouth, and her fangs pierced through the armor and into the female Black Knight's skin. The Blood Race's blood sucking was very efficient. In an instant, the female Black Knight lost all color and turned into a dry corpse.
The black fog wanted to escape from the body, but it was caught by Mu. Mu held it in her hand and it struggled like a chick.
"This is their original form. How laughable. They failed to evolve on the wrong path." Mu licked her lips. The female Black Knight's blood could not satisfy her. It could only quench her thirst. Without a strong sense of hunger, she would not choose to eat such low-grade blood.
"Natural selection. Since they evolved like this, it is the result of their choice. There is no such thing as failure." Li Xiang shook his head. The Black Knight's characteristics were not bad. They might be useful in some areas. It was just that they were restrained by the Blood Race and the werewolves.
Hearing Li Xiang's different opinion, Mu quickly lowered her head and said, "Yes, Master is right. I was too arbitrary."
On the other side, Nassero was silently biting the Black Knight's corpse. She rarely ate raw meat, but she was starving and did not have much choice. She did not want Li Xiang to see her eating, so she turned around.
"Didn't you say that the noble werewolves like to eat cooked food like humans?" Mu looked at her curiously and teased.
Nassero wiped her lips and revealed her fangs. "Then, do the noble Blood Race also drink the blood of these low-grade humans?"
"Are you provoking me? Werewolf! Do you want to become my mobile blood bank? "Mu snorted and crushed the struggling Black Soul. Then, she looked at Nassero.
Nassero did not want to be outdone. She revealed her sharp fangs and shouted at her, "Then, do you want to become my food? I have never tasted a Blood Race before. "
The two of them were natural enemies and did not see eye to eye. If they were not Li Xiang's slaves, they would have already started fighting.
Li Xiang could not do anything about this natural rejection.
The two of them scolded each other, but they did not go too far. After a few words, they stood up obediently.
After dealing with the two Black Knights, Li Xiang also obtained the parchment that caused them so much trouble.
It looked like a remnant of a map. Since it appeared here, it might be the hiding place of some great Holy Relic. It was normal for people to want to kill it.
He flipped through it repeatedly. It was just a simple map. The marked location seemed to be on this desolate plain. Unfortunately, they did not know anything about this plain. This simple map was very limited.
At this moment, a few figures moved not far away. They seemed to be rushing in this direction.
Mu and Nassero immediately became alert. They stood on either side of Li Xiang and prepared to face the enemies at any time.
As if feeling the strong pressure from the three of them, the leading human shouted before they got close, "Friend, we have no ill intentions!"
"Who would believe you?" Mu pouted. Not only were the human experts powerful, but they were also very cunning. If they believed them, they would die a horrible death.
Li Xiang frowned. Why does this voice sound so familiar?
He opened his vision and wanted to hide after seeing the leader. However, he soon remembered that he was wearing a mask and stopped.
It was none other than the captain of Cecilia's personal guards, Banco, who had led a group of magicians over in the Sky Arena.
He gave Li Xiang a non-elemental magic resonance stone and helped him take the first step to become a magician.
Back then, Banco was a level-3 magician. He was like a towering mountain that made Lin Li feel suffocated. However, only half a year had passed, and Lin Li was qualified to talk to him as an equal.
Only the growth of one's power could bring a real sense of security.
Banco saw Li Xiang from afar. Since they were both human magicians, it would be easier to talk.
He had an important mission given to him by Miss Cecilia, so he did not have time to argue with others. As long as he could use Wessex's name to settle things, it did not matter even if he had to suffer some losses.
"Hello, friend. I am Banco, a level-3 magician from Wessex Security Company. I am now the captain of the security team. I have no ill intentions. If you don't believe me, you should believe Wessex." Banco took a few steps forward. Mu and Nassero, who were beside Li Xiang, growled at the same time. He did not dare to move forward.
To be able to tame werewolves and vampires at the same time, this person must be very powerful. Banco was even more unwilling to fight with him.
"How can I prove your identity?" Li Xiang lowered his voice. It was not difficult for him to change his voice. Mu and Nassero heard the change in his voice and immediately realized that this person might be someone they knew. They quickly adjusted their mentality and waited for Li Xiang's arrangement.
"This is Wessex's security badge. It is made of special material. You should be able to recognize it." Banco handed over a badge. Since Lin Li was willing to speak, there was a possibility of negotiation.
"Yes." Li Xiang glanced at the badge. He knew that it was made using Wessex's unique authentication technology. If he was caught pretending to be an internal member of Wessex, he would be banished from the seven continents. No one dared to take such a big risk.
"What do you want?" Lin Li asked calmly.
"It's like this. We have been chasing these two Black Knights for a long time. They have something that we need. You see …"
Banco rubbed his hands and said with a smile, "I will definitely compensate you."
Li Xiang's lips curled up into a smile. He knew the relationship between Banco and Cecilia. It seemed that the thing that the girl wanted was this piece of parchment. He had to extort some money from that rich girl.
