“Have the terrorists of Chechnya been here?”
Vicar felt a chilling fear since he entered into the manor.
“Are you scared of those dead bodies on the road?”
But Vera did not seemed to be afraid at all… Even though Vicar knew this woman was not a real human being, he couldn’t help saying, “Miss Vera! You saw the situation here, let’s go back!”
But Vera frowned at this moment.
She sniffed the air with her nose, “This smell is disgusting.”
Vicar looked at this corpse on the ground, and subconsciously nodded, “Yes, I hate the bloody smell too… Wait, where are you going? ”
But he could only hear a word from Vera, “I mean the smell of a wolf.”
“Wolf?” Vicar was surprised, and suddenly he thought of something with his face changed.
However, Anna didn’t have to give him the answer. Because a figure abruptly broke the wall and rose in front of Vera and Vicar!
It was a werewolf, which was full of hair around its body, hands and feet bend over on the ground, with its head up, and grinning teeth.
“What’s this?”
However, another huge figure, like small-sized ‘Hulk’, walked out slowly from the broken wall at this time.
“Is there someone still in the way?!”
The ‘giant’ suddenly asked in a hoarse voice…it was like a roar from a prisoner in rage.
Obviously… This ‘giant’ also saw Vicar and Vera.
“Vicar, you hide first.”
Vera calmly said that and her eye color gradually changed.
…
…
“Where are you going to take us to?”
Urey said nothing all the way, which made Efim lost his patience, “One minute! If I can’t find him in one minute, I’ll then send you go to hell!”
“We arrived.”
Urey slightly turned his head that full of sweat. He could slightly see Efim and that man with terrible fighting ability at the corner of his eye, “It’s the room in front. The manor has a secret passage for escaping.”
Tianbai nodded and directly ordered, “Open the door.”
Urey nodded, slowly opening the door of this room—It was a study.
“Where’s the escape way?” Efim asked at this moment.
Urey pointed to the desk in the study, “The switch is on this table… Do you see the lamp? Move it, you’ll see the button. The way is behind the bookcase.”
Efim squinted his eyes, and suddenly said, “Good, now you go and move the lamp away!”
Seeing Urey hesitated, Efim pistol pointed to on the back of Urey’s head, deeply saying, “Go ahead!”
Urey had to only raise his hands, and slowly walked toward the desk step by step. When he came to the desk, he turned around and looked at Efim and Tianzui with cold sweat falling from his hair to his neck.
He swallowed saliva.
“Hurry up!” Tianbai yelled, and loaded the Benelli M1 on his hand, which gave an extremely loud sound.
Right then!
Urey suddenly crouched down to hide himself under the desk; he opened a drawer of this desk— and took out a pistol there.
In fact, there were weapons hidden in many dark corners of the manor. But the fake heir would never know all the positions.
Except this one, which had been found long since!
Urey held the pistol, and panted heavily. He tried to calm himself down.
“You lied to me?!”
Footsteps were getting close to him!
“Ah!!!!”
Urey suddenly cried and rushed out, while triggering the pistol with his fingers.
Bang bang… Bang, bang!
…
Anna, who had unknowingly overtaken Luo Qiu and You Ye, swiftly ran forward but soon stopped.
Because she found she had overtaken the club boss and the maid— her protectors that she didn’t want to recognize.
“Can’t you go faster?”
“Miss Anna.” Luo Qiu calmly said, “Are you sure you want the next product? Mr. Urey only has less than one month’s life… Are you sure you’ll pay part of your soul as the transaction fee, for helping him get through the crisis?”
“Don’t you want me to get my soul sooner?” Anna sneered.
Luo Qiu shook his head, “No, I mean, Miss Anna can buy something better for yourself with the remaining transaction fee. For example, lifespan.”
Looking at Anna, Luo Qiu lightly said, “You are clear that you should have died, but now you are still alive because of your soul—the transaction fee. I mean, the more soul you use, the less you can use for purchasing lifespan. Of course, for a person who is supposed to die, even if she uses up all her soul, the lifespan she can get will not be too much. But because of this, the transaction fee of the soul is particularly precious.”
Luo Qiu said slowly when he saw Anna was silent, “For example, if you can buy three years of lifespan, there will be only two years left after consumption…Of course, I’m just giving an example.”
“Yes! Sure! I decided!Can you do it?!”
“I see.” Luo Qiu nodded, “I will do as your wish.”
Luo Qiu went over Anna, but he didn’t walk forward even one step—In front there was a closed room; he just lifted his palms now.
He slowly changed the event in the room.
Bang Bang… Bang!!!!
Only five continuously gunshots could be heard from that room.
Anna suddenly turned back to look at the door when she heard the gunshots.
After it turned quiet, Anna nervously grasped and raised up her hands in front of her lips.
It was very very quiet… as the time passed.
She had no courage to walk forward even one step, or push open the door. She was just… looking at it.
How long had the time passed?
Then, an unlocking sound was heard, along with a figure slowly coming out.
It was Urey.
His face was covered with blood, and every drop of blood was like the pigment on the brush. His eyes were empty, and the pistol in his hand vertically pointed to the ground.
He just walked like this, one step after another, as if dragging his own body.
He could only see the corridor, but not the trio.
He was still walking at his pace.
He didn’t know Anna was looking at him when he walked through her. Anna knew he couldn’t see her, so she stretched out her palm and tried to touch his scattered hair or erased the blood on his face.
But she dared not, her fingers stopped in the air.
She just watched him walking through her like a walking corpse, until he eventually disappeared from the corridor.
He managed to get through the danger.
Until she covered her lips hardly, trying to stop the cry, until she feebly leaned on the wall.
Until she looked at Luo Qiu sadly, “How I want to tell him, that I never wanted to kill him; how I want to tell him… want to tell him…”
“But I can’t, I can’t let him know…”
“I can’t let him know… that his revenge is meaningless.”
“Because I know since I chose to shoot and met him at the gate of the art gallery…”
“I’m not qualified to be loved.”
