In a very clean cell in the underground prison of the city police station, Sam sat by the wall with his head against his knees. He did not move for two consecutive days and kept this posture.
On the third night of the bloody night, Kelita came to the prison again to deliver "food", a cup of blood.
"Sam, are you very hungry? Come on..."
Sam still did not respond and did not move.
At this time, he heard the door of the prison open and another footstep came in.
Sam heard the voice of Captain Rudolph:
"Sam, you come with me, you can't stay here. If you stay a few more days, Kelita will be anemic."
Sam suddenly looked up and saw Kelita's arm moved behind her. Is this blood Kelita's own?
"Why don't you try it? It's not easy for Kelita either. I heard that a cup of blood like this is sold for 3 silver shields on the black market. Besides, if you don't eat something, it's hard to walk."
Kelita saw Sam's sunken cheeks. In just three days, Sam was tortured into such a state.
Sam saw the tears on Kelita's face and her pale complexion.
"Sam, it's not your fault." Kelita squatted beside Sam: "This is not a disaster you can resist. Who knew that donating blood would also be collected by the Ravno family?"
"I'm sorry, Kelita."
"It's not your fault, Sam, cheer up and go with Captain Rudolph." Kelita wanted to tell a joke to make Sam feel better: "Look, Captain Rudolph is a wizard and Yvonne is a werewolf. Aren't they all fine? You have to be fine too."
Rudolph always felt like he had become a negative example, but he couldn't find a logical loophole for a while.
Everyone was promoting that heretics were man-eating demons. This concept has been deeply rooted in people's minds, especially for police officers like Sam. When he became a heretic, it was even more difficult for him to accept his identity.
Rudolph said: "Sam, drink some blood, and come with me when you have some strength. You can't stay in jail forever."
Sam knew that Rudolph was right and he should have left long ago. He cherished every minute of the present so much. He could still look at Kelita's face at such a close distance. There would be few such opportunities in the future.
He took the cup and drank the blood in it. The satisfaction of being well fed and the fragrance of blood made Sam feel ashamed. He was now really a vampire, a monster that drank human blood.
After standing up shakily, Sam walked towards Rudolph: "Captain, let's go."
Watching the two people leave, Kelita wiped the tears from her face and followed them.
At the door of the city police station, the three separated.
"Goodbye, Kelita."
"Goodbye, Sam."
The two said goodbye in the simplest words. Goodbye is the best wish, but it is often the most difficult wish to achieve.
After leaving the police station, Sam couldn't help but ask, "Captain, can I still be with Kelita?"
"You have to be mentally prepared.
You are a blood servant now, and you have a lifespan of 150 years. When you become a level 1 vampire, you will have a lifespan of 250 years. When you become a level 2 vampire, you will have a lifespan of 500 years.
The age gap between you will become larger and larger. When Kelita is 80 years old and can't walk, you will still look like you are 20 years old.
You can never see Kelita during the day, you can only go to her at night.
During this period, if you want to be promoted, you need to sleep constantly. Maybe in the last few decades, you have been sleeping half of the time. It depends on your talent. If you have good talent, it may be shorter. The blood clan is a special kind of apostle. Their long life span, poor quality of life, and constant sleep are isolated from the world, which makes them gradually forget the feelings of ordinary people.
If you still want to be with Kelita, you will suffer, and Kelita will suffer even more. "
Sam's eyes were gloomy and he stopped talking. He followed Rudolph and walked all the way to the South City Cemetery.
After entering the cemetery, Sam saw his acquaintance Cooper.
Several people came to a dug tomb, where a copper coffin was placed.
The dark red copper color and the mottled verdigris on it proved that the copper coffin was very old.
There was a lot of blood in it, which was stored by the Ravno family before, enough to drown Sam.
"Wooden coffin, stone coffin, copper coffin... Sam, you slept in a copper coffin from the beginning. This treatment is also very high among the blood clan. I heard that the price of sleeping in a copper coffin is 150 gold shields a year. Sam, enjoy this luxurious big bed.
Go in, Sam. I don't know when you will wake up, but I hope that when you wake up, you can successfully become a Level 1 vampire. "
Sam thought he would hate this half pool of blood, but he didn't.
He took off his shoes and socks and stepped into the blood. The blood made Sam feel comfortable. He slowly flowed down in the blood pool until he was completely submerged in the blood. He didn't close his eyes, and his vision was blood red.
This copper coffin has a special energy that keeps the blood warm. Lying in the blood, he felt warm all over.
Sleepiness came over him, and Sam fell asleep in the long-lost comfort.
The coffin lid was closed, and several corpses buried the copper coffin. Sam's problem was temporarily solved. Rudolph still had 80 pairs of bat wings to make, and was about to go to work overtime, but was stopped by Cooper.
Cooper said:
"Rudolph, there have been too many deaths in the Bayer District these two days. Not only did more than 1,000 people die in the blood fog night, but last night and tonight, 100 corpses were sent to the Bayer District every day, all of whom were sucked to death by crazy blood servants.
Don't you police station care about it? "
Not all blood servants are willing to starve like Sam. After tasting the blood, the blood servants can no longer resist this temptation.
"Who cares?" Rudolph sneered:
"Isn't there the "Fabro City Atonement Act"? This is the business of the Alchemy Council, why should we worry about it.
You don't have to worry, someone will organize these blood servants soon. They are precious resources and there will be new arrangements soon."
Butcher Butcher was right. The city center of Fabro is dirtier than the dirtiest sewer.
Rudolph stayed up late every day and it took him a week to make 80 pairs of bat wings. As the man with the hardest fist in Fabro, Colonel Gayton's request was worth Rudolph's overtime.
When he arrived at the Constitutional Army's base with a box full of leather belts, he saw the Constitutional Army carrying ammunition to the airship. Colonel
Gayton came to greet Rudolph in person: "Thank you for your hard work. I was going to ask you about the progress of your bat wings after this operation. I didn't expect you to complete the production before the operation began. "
The adjutant opened the box and inspected the bat wings one by one. Rudolf asked, "Are there any more actions? Have you found Ravno?"
Colonel Gayton shook his head:
"Not Ravno, but several large mines were found in the wilderness 100 kilometers away from Fabro. The parliament named it the Ruhr Mining Area, and I was ordered to clean up the werewolves and vampires around there."
Rudolf sighed in his heart. He even had a name for it early. The Ruhr Mining Area is a good place. It will be the beginning of wealth.
