Chapter 252: Finding Hope
In the dark tunnel, dampness and depression filled the air, and the rich darkness made the place look like an abyss.
On the wet wall, water vapor condensed into water droplets and slid down the wall, making a slight sound when it dripped on the ground.
A man wearing a black robe stood quietly in the darkness of the tunnel, his figure seemed to blend into the darkness.
"The Blood God is back?"
A low and hoarse voice resounded in the tunnel. The man closed his eyes tightly, seeming to feel the awe-inspiring will that seemed to envelope the entire world.
His pupils glowed with scarlet light in the darkness, and his throat was always swallowing involuntarily, making him look a little hungry and unbearable.
He has become stronger..."
"How about, by cooperating with us, you will have the blood banks of several high-end hospitals, which will fully meet all the needs of your blood descendants, and will be of great help to you in developing your own power!"
He was wearing a finely tailored suit that fit his body perfectly. His facial contours were deep, his nose was high, and his lips were tightly closed, revealing a hint of determination.
Looking at Kyle who had just drank the blood in front of him, he did not show the slightest fear.
"Malcolm Merlin? I don't understand why a successful person like you would have such hatred for Star City?"
With a sneer on his lips, Kyle broke away from feeling the vast will and stared at the man in front of him with his scarlet eyes.
"Star City is not an innocent city to begin with. The prosperity on the surface only covers up its countless bottomless holes. Everyone's body is covered with blood. This place needs a baptism, a blood bath. Baptism, so that they can realize their mistakes!”
Malcolm roared with all his strength, his whole state seemed excited and manic, and his eyes stared at the existence in front of him that brought fear to countless forces in Star City.
As long as he gets the help of the guy in front of him, his plan will be completed with maximum efficiency. Even the damn Green Arrow can't stop him.
"Hehehe... I thought you, like those guys, wanted to gain eternal life and that extraordinary power, but I didn't expect that you were even crazier than I thought, destroying Star City?
I am hiding here not to do such earth-shattering things. If I attract the attention of that guy from Gotham——"
The figure was like a ghost, and the afterimages were intertwined in the darkness. As if suddenly, they moved to Malcolm's side. Looking at the tense guy in front of him, Kyle's lips curled up into a sneer.
"You don't want me to make a big fuss? Then attract the Blood God? Malcolm?"
"...Hidden in Star City, the invincible Lord Blood Demon fell into fear just because of unreasonable suspicions about an ordinary person. That would be too petty."
Malcolm's hand subconsciously touched the dagger at his waist, and he looked calmly at the man who was almost face to face with him.
The fishy smell of blood hit his face, and incredible pressure enveloped his body. This was the first time he felt such terrifying pressure since he returned from the Assassin's League.
Kyle is more powerful than he imagined!
Looking at Malcolm, who was wearing a suit and leather tie in front of him and looking extremely normal, Kyle's mouth curved in an exaggerated way. He walked slowly and distanced himself from Malcolm.
With his back to Malcolm, Kyle looked at the dark tunnel wall.
A low and hoarse voice filled the cave.
"Tell me, how can I help you?"
Malcolm looked at the man in front of him with his hands behind his back, as if he didn't take him seriously at all, and he didn't feel slighted.
"I need you to kill someone!"
"who?"
"Green Arrow!"
…
In the bustling bar, people were swaying their bodies and their faces were full of joy and excitement.
The girl suddenly drank the bright red liquid in the cup, her whole face was full of intoxication, and a trace of blush flashed on her beautiful face, which looked beautiful and incomparable under the dim light. .
"Beauty, are you interested in having a drink together?"
With a certain teasing tone, a man wearing a black leather jacket, a beard, and a short shave came to sit next to the girl.
"……Can!"
A bright smile appeared on Thea's face, and the man excitedly waved to the waiter.
Soon, the two of them exchanged glasses of wine and swallowed bottle after bottle of whiskey.
Thea felt the hot feeling coming from her abdomen, and her eyes became more and more blurred. On the other side, paying attention to her state, the somewhat confused man showed an excited smile.
"Miss, are you drunk?"
"...Well, are you a little drunk?"
Thea's words were a little unclear, and the man couldn't help but stretched out his hand and gently touched her. His rough palms carefully touched the smooth shoulders, and gently smelled the fragrance of the girl's hair in front of him. , the whole person can’t wait.
"Maybe we should find some other fun!"
After saying that, the man grabbed Thea's arm and put it in front of his neck, then carried the girl who seemed to be very drunk and walked towards the door of the bar.
"Hehe, hahaha..."
Thea smiled softly, seemingly unaware of the upcoming fate.
The journey was smooth until he left the bar. The man walked toward the car parked on the side of the road with excitement on his face.
Just as his hand was on the door handle, a strong hand grabbed his wrist.
The man was startled and turned around. The face of the visitor seemed familiar, but he was in high spirits at the moment and didn't take it seriously. He just thought it was some nosy "good guy"!
"Friend! I advise you not to meddle in other people's business!"
"Nosy? I don't know you. Where do you want to take my sister?"
"Your sister?"
He thought to himself that he was going to be in trouble. The man quickly put down the girl beside him, and under Oliver's gaze, he got into the car in a panic and drove away.
Looking at Xia squatting on the ground, Oliver's face flashed a trace of sadness.
After thinking for a moment, he still helped Xia up and walked towards his car.
"Don't pretend, Xia! I know you are not drunk!"
Looking at the girl with closed eyes in the rearview mirror, Oliver said in a deep voice.
Looking at Thea who was still motionless and seemed to be in a dozing state, Oliver said directly: "If I hadn't appeared, would you have sucked that guy's blood dry... Thea, I know who turned you into this, I..."
"Enough!"
Thea, who had her eyes closed, shouted softly. She was indeed pretending to be drunk just now. She looked at Oliver with a frank look.
"Brother, I don't want you to care about me, and I don't need you to save me. You can continue to be your playboy... Don't go to that person, you will die!"
The originally angry voice gradually became depressed. Thea didn't dare to look at Oliver's eyes. Recently, she has been increasingly unable to control herself. The relationship between the two has just eased, and she encountered such a thing. Now she is mixed with mixed feelings and a little at a loss.
Only by drinking a lot of blood can she feel a little comfort.
"I hope you can understand, Thea, I will always stand by you, and I will turn you back to the girl you used to be!"
The words were decisive, and Oliver's face was full of determination.
To accomplish these, the first step is to stop his sister Thea from drinking blood!
As the car stopped outside Oliver's luxurious villa, Thea was reluctantly pulled by him to hold the car.
"Brother, let me go. No vampire can get rid of the desire for blood. That is not comparable to taking drugs!"
From Oliver's actions, Thea obviously realized something and looked at the man who was striding towards her with vigilance.
"Maybe I have to try it first!"
"No!"
Both palms slapped Oliver's chest fiercely, and Oliver was slapped out directly. The subconscious action made Thea stunned in place. She looked at Oliver who was crawling from the ground with a look of pain on his face with an apologetic look.
"Sorry!"
Seeing that Oliver was still going to continue, Thea quickly left him and rushed out of the manor.
The situation suddenly changed, and Oliver simply didn't intend to hide.
"Felicity!"
He shouted directly.
The sound penetrated the dense forest outside the manor, and also made Thea's heart tighten.
The next moment, the sound of breaking wind came from her ears, and her inner alarm bells rang loudly. Fortunately, Thea's reaction speed was fast enough, and her body just brushed past the needle shot from the side.
The sudden attack by a stranger made Thea feel angry. She stared at the woman hiding in the woods with red eyes.
With a light jump, she jumped over the high wall and disappeared in the thick night.
"...Fuck!"
Oliver couldn't help cursing secretly, and he was a little depressed.
"My God, how can she be so fast? She can obviously hit it!"
Felicity said a little frustrated as she walked out of the woods. As a preparatory measure left by Oliver, her action was obviously a failure.
"Maybe we need to find that guy first..."
"... Oliver, you can't think like that. I've investigated. That guy is probably a vampire elder, a first-generation blood disciple. God, that's not something we can deal with!"
Felicity tried to persuade him. She told Oliver all the information she had found, trying to make Oliver give up this desperate idea.
"Have you found the information about the Blood God?"
"No?"
"Then we have no other way. Time can't be dragged on. We can't watch Xia get deeper and deeper!"
"But I contacted the War Knight!"
"!"
Oliver looked at Felicity, who raised her eyes and showed pride, with a shocked face. Surprises always appear suddenly at some stage in despair. This news is like a light mark that cuts through the darkness.
"Contacted the War Knight? Is it the speaker of the Judgment Council who rivals the Blood God?"
I couldn't help asking again.
Felicity nodded proudly, smiling.
