After Lu Qiu finished his dinner, he looked around the apartment, besides the corpses, it still lacked a person.
The male high school senior called Sun Qi.
Probably he got scared and escaped after witnessing the scene of Lu Qiu revealing his canines.
Lu Qiu currently didnât intend to expose his true ident.i.ty.
In this quiet night, the Despair Points just rose by approximately 10,000 point. However, that also means that 10,000 humans survived last night, the first day of the apocalypse, and then died in despair.
Such good news âŚ
Although Lu Qiu didnât know whether Sun Qi was part of the 10,000 Despair Points.
However, Lu Qiu hates uncertainties.
That brat is the only one who knows Lu Qiuâs real ident.i.ty.
âHuman, Iâll slowly hunt you down after I evolve.â Lu Qiuâs guess was that when Sun Qi escaped, perhaps he tripped and slammed against the doorsill.
The only thing that he shouldnât have done was to leave traces of blood.
Vampires are creatures capable of telling people apart by their blood, and itâs more effective than using eyesight.
âSystem, check the cost of Despair Points needed, for me to advance my blood-lineage.â
âWhat are the benefits of evolution?â It probably wonât improve my bodyâs const.i.tution, right?
Vampires arenât Werewolves, ah! It doesnât matter, as Vampires have magic skills.
âIn other words, itâs similar to using the skill Heart Squeeze?â
Ever since Lu Qiu used the skill âHeart Squeezeâ for the first time, he became fond of the feeling when holding someone elseâs heart in his hand.
âProfiteering p.r.i.c.k!â
There are times when Lu Qiu feels like this System is quite stingy âŚ
10,000 lives need to be exchanged for a skill and 50,000 lives need to be exchanged in order upgrade the blood-lineage the first time.
However, as long as Lu Qiu thinks a bit about it, the System doesnât appear to be a profiteering p.r.i.c.k.
Lu Qiu carefully asked, while continuing this train of thought.
âThen ⌠how many Despair Points are needed in order to resurrect somebody?â
The system should be omnipotent. After all, itâs aware of the number of human deaths, resurrecting somebody must also be quite simple.
Lu Qiu felt his heart being tangled into a lump, as this is what he hopes the most for.
The System had always replied quickly, but now, it suddenly became silent for a moment, and only afterwards gave Lu Qiu an answer.
10,000,000,000? When Lu Qiu heard this astronomical number, his heart suddenly felt ice-cold, even though a Vampireâs heart is always cold.
But ⌠10,000,000,000, ah!
What is the worldâs current population? Lu Qiu rememberâs that itâs merely over 8,000,000,000.
In other words, even if all the humans within this world die in despair, the resulting Despair Points still wonât be enough to resurrect somebody.
The cost of resurrecting a living beings is outrageous.
But ⌠Lu Qiuâs hand touched a spot on his neck and grabbed a pendant.
It was a transparent gla.s.s bottle. Lu Qiu went in front of a window, and under the moonlights illumination, the gla.s.s bottleâs inside, which was full of dust, had the dust emit some radiance.
âSystem ⌠if I remember correctly, we have to destroy more than just this one world, right?â Lu Qiu was watching the specks of dust light within the gla.s.s bottle, while inquiring the System.
âThat is to say, that I can also get an infinite amount of Despair Points?â
After Lu Qiu heard the Systemâs affirmative answer, he once again had a joyful expression.
How to get the 10,000,000,000 Despair Points? Destroying this world isnât enough to get it?
Continuously destroying ⌠will be able to gather despair little by little.
Then the despair will turn into Lu Qiuâs hope!
There will come a day!
Thinking until this point, Lu Qiu finally felt relieved.
After Lu Qiu finished looking at the specks of dust emitting light within the gla.s.s bottle, his gaze became gentle and he murmured âŚ
âGood night.â
An ordinary person would have difficulty imagining this gentle side of him, at least when one thinks about the crazy way that he treats humans.
That emotion came from the heart. After the pendant once again carefully hung from his neck, Lu Qiu made up his mind.
âSystem, do the exchange for the mid-level blood-sucking specieâs blood-lineage and Heart Squeeze!â
Lu Qiu wants to become stronger! Strong enough to make 10,000,000,000 fresh lives despair under his own doing.
âDo it!â
After Lu Qiu gave his approval, strength poured into his body as an exchange for 60,000 lives.
A large quant.i.ty of scarlet blood appeared in the apartment and surrounded Lu Qiu, gradually fusing into his body.
Destruction and regeneration, the two processes incessantly occurred â strengthening Lu Qiu.
The pain covered Lu Qiuâs entire body, it made him hug himself and issue low groans.
âUhh âŚâ
Lu Qiu endured the pain, while his strength slowly upgraded.
Finally, after a short period of three minutes, the blood that was surrounding Lu Qiu fused with his body â marking the end of his strengthening.
âSo this ⌠is how the mid-level blood-sucking specie feels like?â Lu Qiu looked at his pale arm, there was no change in his outward appearance.
However, the restless internal energy and the awareness of the outside world became all the more distinct, making Lu Qiu become aware of his own changes.
Additionally, he seems to possess the power to manipulate things âŚ
Lu Qiu extended his left arm â his hand overflowed with a scarlet radiance â he aimed at the headless corpse of the brawny male lying on the floor and instantly closed his hand.
A dull sound of explosion was issued from within the males chest.
Obviously, the blood of a dead person wonât flow, but Lu Qiu still used the Heart Squeeze to burst the heart.
The manipulation range is about 5m.
What gave Lu Qiu the most pleasant-surprise was the power to manipulate blood.
âIs this the so-called magic?â Lu Qiuâs fingers shook slightly and a mist of small blood cells were dragged out from the maleâs chest by the strange power â it swayed in front of Lu Qiu, after some time changed into liquid blood and spilled on the floor.
âSigh ⌠Iâm still not experienced in the manipulation.â
Mid-level blood-sucking specieâs blood-lineage is only at the preliminary stage of blood manipulation
If Lu Qiu remembers correctly, the reason why Vampires refer to themselves as the Blood Clan, is because the Blood Lords can with the wave of a hand, drain the blood of creatures within the range of their line of sight.
The Blood Clan regards blood as a toy, that is, living beings with blood are their toys.
Lu Qiu doesnât know when heâll reach that level â however, with the help of the System, he estimates that it wonât be long before heâs able to claim the t.i.tle of Blood Clan.
The n.o.ble Blood Clan and the humble Vampire, these two t.i.tles represent the difference between the two levels.
âBlood Clan?â Lu Qiu watched the messy scenery in the bedroom, he didnât plan to take the a.s.sault rifle with him.
This worldâs firearms, he doesnât knows why, but theyâre really cheap if exchanged within the System.
A tactical knife requires 10 Despair points ⌠although it requires the life of ten people to be exchanged for, however, in regards to those that easily exchange for items worth tens of thousands, itâs cheap to the extent that itâs like free.
The price of firearms varies roughly from 100 to 1,000.
Therefore, Lu Qiu doesnât value the rifle.
Lu Qiu now only wants to try one thing.
That is to eat something ⌠not blood, but human food.
A Vampireâs inborn sense of taste is abnormal when compared to a humanâs, as they can only taste blood and the the exquisite human food is unpalatable to them.
However, Vampires after evolving, seem to have the same sense of taste as humans.
âGe-ge Daren, those things look quite tasty. Can i try them?â
This was Lu Qiuâs and his mei-meiâs childhoodâs dream.
The very delicious-looking human food, with regards to Lu Qiu and his mei-mei, they were luxurious goods â and even if they eat some, the taste would be far from their expectations.
âSystem, can food be exchanged for?â
ââŚâ Lu Qiu tasted the still fresh smell of the virginâs blood in the apartment â it is Xia Yingâs delicious blood â although Lu Qiu wasnât full and also wasnât hungry, yet he still would like to have some dessert.
Now is not the time to eat, if that Sun Qi is still alive, he should have already run quite far â it would be difficult to track him if the blood on the doorsill dries up.
Therefore âŚ
âExchange for a kilogram of red dates.â1
The red thing was what Lu Qiuâs mei-mei pretended to like to eat when she was alive âŚ
As for why she pretended â she simply didnât know the taste of that stuff, however, in order to get her some of that stuff, Lu Qiu nearly killed an orchard shopkeeper. At that time, Lu Qiu was not more than 14 years old.
Therefore, as his mei-mei, she cherished it and was grateful to eat it while filled with tears. To a Vampire, the red dates tasted like mud.
A small pile of red dates fell on the table, only costing Lu Qiu 5 Despair Points.
Food was also unexpectedly cheap.
His mei-mei was a brat â Lu Qiu picked up a red date, put it in his mouth and chewed a bit, basically ⌠thereâs no redeemable taste, itâs as unpalatable as when eating mud.
She was really a brat.
It obviously doesnât has any redeemable taste, yet at that time, she still ate everything up.
âd.a.m.n it!â After Lu Qiu spat out the mud-like red date, he also exchanged for a kilogram of compressed biscuits as well as a case of bottled water, it all was thrown on the desk.
It all fell heavily on the desk and crushed the pile of red date.
âGet crushed, you rotten little s.h.i.ts.â
Lu Qiu vented the discontent in his heart like this and then went directly to the apartmentâs door, he squatted down and then touched some of the blood on the doorsill.
Dread ⌠fear ⌠breakdown!
The bloodâs owner left those emotions behind in the blood, the trail got instantly picked up by Lu Qiuâs mind.
âHe actually survived, ah.â Lu Qiu stood up and went out of the apartment, locked the door and went next to the window in the corridor. He watched as the night enveloped the city.
