It is one of the many unfinished buildings in the industrial area of Misaki City. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

The location is remote.

There is a group of buildings around it that are like cover.

Light can't be cast into it.

The cold air continued to spread inside.

In one of these buildings, in a dimly lit space with nothing but concrete, a figure was leaning against the wall, sitting there, as if taking a nap.

The sound of breathing sounded rhythmically.

However, it was not so much the breathing of a human as the breathing of a ferocious beast.

Under the sound of breathing, which made the air around him continue to cool in a frenzied state, the man fell asleep with his head down.

In his hand, he held a knife that resembled the fangs of a wild beast and had a hideous blade.

"Tick..."

With the sound of liquid dripping, crimson blood flowed down from the hideous knife and stained the ground red.

If you look closely, around this napping person, there is a dismembered corpse, and the environment around him has completely turned into a sea of blood.

The pungent smell of blood filled the air.

Until a footstep sounded.

"Roar..."

"Roar..."

A slight beast roar rose and fell like an accompaniment.

The voices were all coming from people who were getting closer.

The man was tall, dressed in a pitch-black coat, with a rock-like face without any expression and a machine-like look in his eyes.

If Fang Li and Erquit were here, they would definitely recognize them as soon as possible.

This person is Nero, who should have died.

The high-ranking Dead Apostle, ranked tenth among the Twenty-Seven Ancestors, walked slowly, ignoring the mountain of corpses and the sea of blood at his feet, stepped over the mutilated corpses, trampled on the sticky blood everywhere, and walked in the direction of the people leaning against the wall.

Staring at the man who was leaning against the wall, sitting on the ground, with a hideous knife in his hand, and breathing like a beast, Nero spoke out rather indifferently.

"Failed."

In a word, the figure that was breathing frantically gradually raised its head.

This is a man with long, messy black hair, wearing only a shirt and a pair of trousers.

The man's appearance is not outstanding, but a pair of eyes are like snakes, and the pupils are elongated.

Such a man looked at Nero, the corners of his mouth twitched, and a cruel expression gradually appeared on his face.

"It's okay if you fail." The man said: "It was just a whim, if the princess and the agent fought until only one of them was left, it would be a good thing, if not, then it would not matter." ”

From the man's words, it can be known that the reason why Elquit and Hierre met suddenly was not accidental, but intentional.

Think about it too.

When Elquit happened to be tormented by the blood-sucking impulse, Hiel appeared just in time, and it was a bit unreasonable to say that it was accidental.

In fact, it was because the man was keenly aware of Elquit's state, so he asked Nero to drive several beasts to attack Hierquet, and then led Hierre to the surroundings of Elquit, causing Hierre to discover Elquit, who was affected by the bloodsucking impulse.

You don't have to worry about anything after that.

For the agent of the burial mechanism, who regards heresy as an absolute enemy and must be eradicated no matter what, a true ancestor who is being affected by the blood-sucking impulse must not sit idly by.

In this way, the conflict between Elquit and Hierre is only an inevitable thing.

"Just, how did you find out that the princess's blood-sucking urge has flinched?" Nero said in a tone that did not show the slightest curiosity, but simply asked questions: "Although the princess has indeed become very weak, and the remaining strength should not be enough to suppress the blood-sucking impulse, but the time of the attack is also uncertain, and you have been staying here, how can you know the princess's condition?" ”

After all, unlike Elquet, who can move at will during the day, as the owner of incomplete immortality, the Dead Apostles, who only operate at night, whether it is Nero or this man, will not go out during the day.

Even if it was Nero, it was just driving a few beasts to do errands, and he didn't go out just now.

Since he didn't go out and stayed here all the time, how did the man find out that there was something wrong with Elquit's state?

"I just felt it." Like a cold snake, the man sneered and said, "You should know, right? My relationship with Shirahime isn't as simple as it seems? ”

Hearing this, Nero seemed to understand something.

"I see, that princess was once deceived by you because of her blood-sucking impulse, sucked your blood, and thus turned you into a Dead Apostle, and you took away part of the princess's power, and it is not strange that you will have a wonderful connection with the princess."

"Am I right?"

"———— 'snake'."

Hearing this, the expression on the face of the Dead Apostle, known as the "Serpent", became more and more cold and cruel, and he raised the knife in his hand and pointed it at Nero.

"The same thing can work for you." The man said meaningfully, "I also took away your power, and the inherent enchantment in your body is now under my control, if you plan to do something bad, then I will also feel it immediately." ”

There is no doubt that it is a threat.

This threat made Nero's complexion also change.

It's getting scary.

"Don't worry, I won't forget." Nero said in great depression: "I will never forget all the shame you have caused me. ”

"That's good." The man smiled indifferently: "Anyway, we are all old acquaintances, and when this time the matter is over, we will have nothing to do with each other, so let me use you to my heart's content for the time being." ”

Nero didn't speak, just kept a cold face and continued to look at the man.

There is only one piece of advice given.

"To tell you the truth, what you've done really makes me wonder if you're crazy, aren't you afraid that all the dogs of the church will come here and execute you?"

To this question, the man's answer is this.

"As long as you get the princess of the True Ancestor, then the people of the church are nothing at all." The man squinted his eyes and said, "I care more about those two people." ”

With that, the man's knife lightly tapped the pool of blood on the ground.

Suddenly, the pool of blood fluctuated, and it was like a mirror, showing two faces.

"Seven Nights."

"Shiki Tono."

Looking at these two people, the Dead Apostle, known as the "Serpent", sneered.

"As a user of this pair of eyes, let me see if you can use it better than I do."
