The innocent eyes of the person sitting at the door made the other two speechless.

It was as if a cat had been lost. After searching for it for a long time, I finally found that the cat had wandered around a few times outside, and then ran back.

This example is a perfect substitute for the current scene.

Lambert didn't mean anything, it's good to be back, especially since he came back in time. If it wasn't for him to find out that the person was missing by coincidence, it might seem like nothing happened tonight, and he wouldn't know about Small. Wright had contacted Yu Yuan, but Yu Yuan still chose to return to him.

But the prince's mood was different. Just ask, if a person plans to steal a cat, but finds that the cat ran out by himself, and he reasoned with him that he would take the initiative to follow him after an extra hour, he believed it after some surprises, and the cat ran back to the place where he escaped by himself. , this is what kind of mood.

He now seriously doubted that the "fair competition" that Lambert had just proposed was a premeditated plan. He didn't need to ask Yu Yuan's own results. The answer was self-evident.

It was simply done on purpose.

Yu Yuan didn't have so many twists and turns in his heart. He had rang the doorbell for a long time and no one came out. He guessed that Lambert found that he was not there, so everyone should go out to find someone.

It is estimated that he did not expect that the person involved would come back by himself, and there was not even a janitor left in the huge house.

He swallowed the rest of the sandwich in his hand. This thing is still bought in the restaurant of the commercial street. Players can use it to replenish blood, and drinks can replenish mana, which can also be regarded as red medicine and blue medicine.

Although I don't know why he became an NPC in the eyes of the players, it is of course no problem for him to communicate with the NPC boss of the restaurant.

The prince stepped forward before Lambert, with a very complicated expression that forced a smile, and his tone was sour when he spoke, "Should I give some explanation, my dear."

Explain why you're going back to the **** house again.

Yu Yuan stood up and patted the dust on his body.

"I compare, uh." Under the "kind" gaze of the prince, he paused for a while, considered the appropriate words, and then said: "...I prefer the climate here, after thinking about it, want to stay."

In fact, I feel that it is convenient to find opportunities to contact other players in the future.

And compared to the prince, Lambert is obviously better at speaking.

"But my dear." The prince reminded with a smile, "It's not that far from the castle at all."

There were only a few cities separated from each other, all of which were the nominal fiefdoms of the Lister family.

Yu Yuan: "...Then can I like the scenery here more?"

"Whatever you want, you can have it in the castle." The prince insisted.

Lambert interrupted the conversation between the two, "Smollett, you should be willing to admit defeat."

Yu Yuan's willingness to come back here has already explained all the problems.

Hearing this, the prince couldn't help biting his back molars, "Lambert, you are really a hypocritical liar."

He must have made Yu Yuan's choice from the beginning, and now he deliberately presupposes this matter in front of Yu Yuan.

Even if he didn't agree to the previous agreement, with Yu Yuan around, he couldn't tear himself apart with Lambert again.

"So you should go quickly." Lambert tapped the pocket watch in his hand and glanced at Yu Yuan, "It's late, someone should rest."

Although Yu Yuan didn't understand what "willing to surrender the gamble" was, but he understood that the prince was leaving, so he followed behind and waved his finger, "Goodbye."

Playing stupid is very thorough.

"Yu, Yuan." For the first time, the prince who learned to take the initiative to give others a chance to choose had never imagined the current situation.

There is even a faint feeling of being deceived.

No matter how angry the prince was, this matter ended in his failure. After all, he couldn't keep entangled here.

However, the current unhappiness is only temporary, and he plans to wait for the next opportunity to steal people again.

Before leaving, while no one responded, the prince quickly left a light kiss on Yu Yuan's face, then bent his knuckles and tapped his forehead lightly, "Little liar."

It's like a name that is bitten on the tip of the tooth and held in the mouth.

As soon as he finished speaking, he calmly disappeared into the vast darkness.

Yu Yuan, who was standing there in a daze, seemed to be stunned by this blow. In fact, his mind was still related to the game, and he didn't feel anything wrong at all.

It is better to say that until now, his thoughts seem to be always on one channel.

At the end of the matter, he got a satisfactory result. Lambert brought people into the mansion and passed the news to the servants sent out in the unique way of the blood clan.

Yu Yuan looked at the little bats that fluttered their wings and flew out of the window one after another. For the first time, he felt that this kind of creature was not so scary... but he still didn't want to touch it.

The elements bound to the blood clan are indeed there in the game settings.

Suddenly thinking of something, Yu Yuan turned around and asked Lambert, "You can't turn into a bat, can you?"

If the other party can, then he can also in the future!

This transformation is unbelievable.

"Of course not." Lambert let go of the last bat and closed the window. "Why do you think this way?"

Yu Yuan couldn't say that he had seen all kinds of settings in the real world, so he could only say, "It's a human legend."

"What other rumors are there about us in the human race?" Smollett was away, and the atmosphere here instantly returned to its most natural state a few days ago. Lambert sat beside him with interest, chatting with Yu Yuan, a rare conversation. A little more.

Yu Yuan thought about it and said, "For example, if you touch the cross and garlic, you will be injured, and the holy water in the church can't be touched?"

"That's right." Lambert nodded.

Yu Yuan asked a few more questions. At this time, the servants of the blood race came back one after another outside the door, saluted the two and stepped back.

He Yu Yuan couldn't help but be a little curious, "Then can you reveal your identities in front of humans?"

"Under normal circumstances, no." Lambert said as he stood up and walked to the bookcase by the wall, carefully selecting "Speaking of this, it's time for you to learn the 'six precepts', every vampire must abide by these ."

Yu Yuan, who is already the same as the blood clan in appearance, must understand the most important laws and regulations of their race.

Yu Yuan looked puzzled, and saw Lambert take out a book and put it in front of him, "I'll explain it to you, you can read this if you don't understand."

He unfolded the book on the table, opened a page, he thought it would be some kind of forbidden book with esoteric words written on it, but he didn't expect... it was a picture book.

He really treats him as a cub in the blood clan. He couldn't help but sigh again.

"The requirements of the six precepts are not complicated." Lambert folded his hands and put them on his knees. "You can't take the initiative to reveal your identity in front of ordinary humans. The prince has absolute rights in the territory..."

After listening for a long time, Yu Yuan couldn't help but ask, "Then what's going on with you and Smollett?"

He was a little curious. According to his understanding, there is only one prince in a family, and the prince owns the territory and has the highest power, but it is not based on the identities of these two people.

"Oh, you said about us." Lambert not only admitted it generously without any shyness, but also introduced Yu Yuan in detail, "The prince's power is equal to responsibility, and the affairs to be responsible are very complicated, Smollett's You can also see the character."

"But he is too casual, does things according to his own preferences, and is informal, etc., which is a big problem, so we divided the positions for the two of us during the selection."

"He's in charge of inheriting the title of prince and guarding the area with the castle at its core, but I'm in charge of everything beyond that - so you can think of Smollett as a non-functional piece of equipment."

The last sentence inexplicably touched Yu Yuan's laughter, so it sounded like the prince was like a mascot of a town house.

He asked again, "Then why can't you be the prince?"

Very dangerous idea.

"We each have something we are good at." Lambert adjusted his glasses, but did not introduce Smollett's thoughts, he only said: "Look down and continue to talk about Liujie."

He pointed to the part Yu Yuan just turned to, "The most important rule in the six precepts is not to kill relatives, not to show murderous intentions to your fellow clan, and not to kill, otherwise you will be hunted down. As long as it is a blood clan, Those who are deprived of their lives must be tried."

It's okay not to say this, as soon as he said it... Yu Yuan remembered the issue of the final mission.

You have to choose an NPC to kill.

Now he also belongs to the blood clan, even if Liujie is put aside for the time being, he still feels that he can't do anything to Lambert or Smollett.

He can recognize that everything in the game is fake, but he is not really worried about who of the two blood clans is pierced by the silver dagger. After all, as long as the data is refreshed, a new one will be generated. At the beginning, he also fought the boss of the Prince with Pumpkin's team. At that time, the Prince's HP was also penetrated, and now he is not standing in front of him.

This is a game after all, no matter how powerful the big boss is, it is also an NPC. It is a string of game data, which can be regenerated at any time.

The problem is...he can't beat either of them.

This is the reason why he can't do this task - with the acuity of these two NPCs, there is no chance for a sneak attack!

Just ask the player who can single out Prince Lester, one of the most difficult bosses in the monthly dungeon, or single out a random wild boss like Lambert, which is played by a guild in a group.

No matter how good the equipment and operation are, it will not work.

Not to mention that he is currently just a salted fish mage with good equipment.

Thinking of this, Yu Yuan couldn't help but ask: "Then you, no, it's us, will you be hurt by the silver utensils?"

"Silverware? How did you think of asking this?"

Before Yu Yuan could answer, Lambert continued, "Yes, silverware will hurt us the most, so you have to be careful not to touch it."

Vampires are supposed to be immortal. Thinking of this, Yu Yuan asked tentatively, "Then under what circumstances will we be killed?"

"There are only a few. Burned to complete ashes by fire, beheaded, pierced through the heart by a cross or a wooden nail... Of course, silverware has the most serious consequences." Lambert pointed to the table on the table. A letter-opening knife, "As long as it is made of silver, even if it is a knife like this, it will die immediately after piercing the heart."

The silver dagger Yu Yuan held was much sharper than a blunt letter-opening knife.

Lambert told him this to let him know what to guard against. Thinking of this, Yu Yuan felt a little guilty and worried for no reason.

Although it is said that this is a virtual game, the performance of these NPCs encountered is really more like a real person than a real person, which always makes people feel some illusions.

Even as a player, I don't know how many NPCs I killed when I did a quest and a dungeon, knowing that the data will be refreshed soon...

Forget it, instead of thinking about it, it's better to make it clear that he can't beat this problem at all.

There was silence for a while.

"Lambert." This time Yu Yuan was the first to break the silence, "I have a question, it may be a little strange."

He hesitated for a while, and without saying anything immediately, he listened to Lambert's encouragement: "Ask, as long as I know, I will answer."

"If you, I mean, a vampire is fatally injured and dies, is there any possibility of resurrection?"

Some human beings are converted into blood races in an endangered state to continue their lives, what if it is the blood race itself?

"A strange question indeed." Lambert smiled and did not answer immediately.

Yu Yuan opened his mouth and said, "Forget it, then treat me as not..."

"No," Lambert interrupted. "And Yu, you got one thing wrong."

"what?"

"For vampires, for us, there are very few times when someone is actually killed."

Yu Yuan immediately understood something, "You mean... suicide?"

"Almost." Lambert nodded slightly, "The death of a blood race will only be a complete death, or in other words, some of us are happy to embrace death and think that death is a gift, and there will be no resurrection in this case. possible."

"Going hand in hand with a long life is the feeling of loneliness brought by the passage of more and more time. Some vampires choose to end their eternal life because they cannot resolve this feeling."

Yu Yuan listened carefully.

"There are more and more doctors like Winnie now, and it is also to solve these problems as much as possible." The topic seemed to become a little heavy, Lambert stared at Yu Yuan, "So, Yu, if you are in the future If you feel this way one day, please don't hide it, tell me immediately."

All potential dangers may be nipped in the bud.

And what appeared in Yu Yuan's mind was a passage from the final mission.

...The loneliness that goes with you is a curse on this race, from which no one can escape.

In this range, is it even included in the blood clan in front of him?

He doesn't know.

Yu Yuan wanted to keep asking, but in the end he stopped the topic here.

It's up to him to make the decision.

He silently opened the task bar, and in a long list of words, the name of the NPC Lambert Lister corresponds to the silver-haired vampire in front of him.

Virtual holographic games, NPCs, can continuously regenerate data.

Killing NPCs, no matter how they look like real people, is only in the virtual world. For a gamer, this is something that should not be burdened, otherwise the game will not be able to proceed at all.

All you need is to wait for an opportunity.

He told himself so.

"Yu, what are you thinking?"

Yu Yuan, who had been distracted for a long time, finally recovered, "It's okay."

"But I have something to do." Lambert's face showed an imperceptible smile, "I didn't say it just now, you called my name."

Yu Yuan: "..." Thinking about it this way, it seems like it's the first time I've called my name.

What, are you celebrating something or hold me accountable to you.

"Isn't it worth remembering?"

Of course, no, it's worth it.

Yu Yuan was at a loss for words, but Lambert walked up involuntarily, put his hands on the sofa, and quickly kissed the tip of his nose.

The forehead, the end of the eyes, this time the tip of the nose.

He counted silently.

The original heavy atmosphere was swept away.

As for Yu Yuan, who was slowly numb to this behavior and now seems to have developed antibodies, he didn't even realize that something was wrong.

The quest thing is always on the mind, and probably will continue that way—until the downline issue is resolved.

Either way.

The next day, without waiting for any progress in his plan, the accident happened first.

The third time he vomited blood, the amount of blood seemed to be larger than before.

Although I didn't feel anything, I just stared blankly at the swaying health bar value in the attribute bar, knowing that this was a fluctuation of game data, but Lambert, who could not know the inside story, was obviously worried.

This was so abnormal that even if he had prejudiced that it was the problem caused by Smollett's drug, he now had to admit that no side effect would be so serious.

Within a day, all the famous blood doctors in the big family were invited, but no one could say any reason.

There was something wrong with Yu Yuan's body, but he couldn't find the problem.

One more day before dawn, Lambert was standing by the bed and had to announce something.

"Yu, you'd better start experimenting with animal blood next."

Yu Yuan sucked the blood from him and Smollett twice only on the day the transformation was completed, but there was a rejection reaction soon after. He has been indulging, slowly increasing the weight with various substitutes, like building a step by step and letting people follow it up.

Now, the steps have reached a new stage. Lambert must face up to the advice given by the doctor, maybe allowing Yu Yuan to adapt to the living blood as soon as possible will benefit his body.

In this regard, Yu Yuan felt miserable at first, but when the first cup of blood with Yu Wen was pushed in front of him, he had to say...

Really fragrant.

Unlike in the past, the transformation has now been completely completed, and he began to smell the aroma of blood like a real blood clan.

Lambert's carefully prepared "Bloody Mary", pure rabbit blood mixed with various seasonings, is just right for a stage like Yu Yuan.

He already had a complete plan, slowly transitioning from taking good blood to letting Yu Yuan bite open the blood vessels of animals to **** blood, to being willing to take the initiative to **** blood from him.

This process must not be too long.

Yu Yuan had nothing to do all day, so he had to sit in the small library and read. He proposed to learn the magic of the vampire from Lambert, and maybe unlock some new skill bar, but Lambert felt that he still needed a rest to recover, and temporarily refused.

And now it's been almost half a month since the first day he couldn't go offline, and he hasn't received any new emails. The only thing that can be considered good news is that the time in reality is only one-third of the time in the game. The body only lay in the holographic cabin for a few days.

Compared to many people who live in games all year round, this data is even considered healthy.

But he can't ignore the final mission, and every time he opens the game backpack, he takes up a backpack slot [ordinary silver dagger].

It is obviously just a piece of equipment that can be seen everywhere in a novice village, but the presence is so high.

One night, he even took out the dagger and made a gesture on himself. As a result, I didn't expect that he was still protected by the "player can't self-harm" mechanism, and he couldn't even poke himself.

The silver dagger is suitable for other people.

As Lambert changed his tricks every day, mixing blood of various ingredients like a bartender, Smollett seemed to have stopped moving since that night and never appeared again.

Lambert has been silently watching Smollett's movements, in case he makes any next move.

Yu Yuan's room was also moved to the basement, next to the coffins of Lambert's two blood clans. This gloomy and cold environment was more comfortable for them. For Lambert, it can also effectively prevent Yu Yuan from disappearing suddenly, whether it is voluntarily or being stolen.

But the most likely suspects seem to have been on the safe side.

As a lord, Lambert governs various affairs in this large area. Now he is in the jungle city, and the movements here are naturally in his eyes.

Among the recent events in Jungle City, a slightly attractive thing is that a rumored haunted mansion next to the city lord's mansion has finally been sold. That's why I chose to buy this house that everyone can't avoid, and the backyard is close to the border of the Black Forest.

Because this trivial matter did not involve the blood clan, there was no abnormality in the transaction process, and it was not reported to the lord.

So, on the night when people started staying in this "haunted house".

Yu Yuan's nest was in the small library on the fourth floor. The balcony of this room just opened to the opposite mansion. It wasn't too far apart, but it was the only place between the two houses that completely faced each other.

The window outside was open, the curtains only half drawn.

Yu Yuan, who was holding the book "As a Blood Race, Things You Need to Pay Attention to" in his hand, was still thinking about where he could help him in his mission when he heard a familiar voice coming from the opposite side.

He raised his head.

The vampire standing on the opposite balcony... Needless to say the identity.

Yu Yuan couldn't help but feel a little speechless and walked onto the balcony, "Why are you here?"

"I have my way." The prince showed a slightly amused smile, "It has been two days since we last met."

Yeah, it's been two days since I failed to go offline.

Yu Yuan put his hand on the railing, and remembered his current failed attempt, and the task he didn't know what to do.

I'm so tired.

The two people are not too far apart, the blood clan's senses are keen, and they don't need to shout very loudly when talking to each other.

Just as the prince was about to speak further, he saw Yu Yuan... Turning his head back to the room, he also pulled the curtains.

Prince: "Hey! Look back!"

However, Yu Yuan was sleepwalking, not knowing what he was thinking, and continued to go back and read the tome of the blood clan.

The next day, when Yu Yuan came here to turn the book, he heard something coming from outside the balcony.

After listening carefully, it doesn't look like a human, but like some kind of animal.

He turned over, and after a while, there were still rustling voices outside, so he had no choice but to go over and open the curtains - and then he was caught off guard by a scene that shocked him.

There was a rattan basket on the balcony. Inside... were several mice with huge bows tied to their bodies. They couldn't move, and six pairs of small eyes met him.

There are black, white and gray, and six neatly sized, the color matching is very particular, and the air seems to be sprayed with perfume.

Yu Yuan looked towards the opposite side, and sure enough, the prince was standing there.

"Like it?"

Yu Yuan: "..." Good question.

The prince is very satisfied with what he has chosen. After all, for the vampires who often come into contact with bats, similar mice are gifts that every young vampire will receive, and they are also of great blood-sucking value.

"I heard that humans like furry animals, you may like this, but if you don't like it now, you can also take it for bloodletting..."

Yu Yuan didn't hear the rest of the words, and on the principle that he still didn't want to touch mice, he turned his head and left.

This visual effect is indeed a bit amazing. He is just an ordinary pre-human, and he is far from being able to keep mouse bats as pets like some vampires.

Not long after, Lambert came to look for him upstairs, and naturally noticed the "gift basket" on the balcony.

He silently took away the nest of mice.

That night, Yu Yuan felt that today's blood seemed to be a new taste, and casually asked if the ingredients had been changed.

Lambert didn't speak, but Winnie answered quickly, "This time I used mouse blood, which is one of the most suitable nutrients for little vampires."

"I used to drink it when I was young. At that time, my family would feed me laurel grass and sour apple juice with rat blood." As if caught in some kind of memory, Winnie held her face and smiled, "But now that I'm older, only Occasionally buy a mouse and bite it while it’s fresh when I can get thirsty, huh.”

Yu Yuan looked at the cup in his hand.

He seemed to remember seeing a few mice not long ago...
