The Swift Star Wolf remembered Liu Ru’s scent, and slowly advanced forward carrying the fast asleep Mo Fan.
The area was still free of the Flesh Mound Corpse Officials and the undead in their stomachs. Their journey was fairly safe.
Mo Fan was actually soundly asleep on the Swift Star Wolf’s furry back.
He was too tired. If he did not replenish some of his energy, he could not even cast a Basic Spell. It was too cruel for him to die after he had just learned a new move!
The Swift Star Wolf brought Mo Fan to an old residential area. Most of the inhabitants were already evacuated. There were people moving in the corners of the alleyways before disappearing quickly…they were most likely the people that had fled here from other places, seeking a place to hide from the undead temporarily in a relatively safer area.
As a matter of fact, the army of undead led by the Nether Bone Ruler and the Mountain Zombie was the deadliest. It was likely that the black ocean had reached the outer walls, and was slowly devouring the line of defense.
In no time, the whole city was going to turn into the undead’s territory, with the inner city stranded like a lonely island surrounded by the ocean of undead!
Mo Fan had to locate the people he was searching for before the ocean of undead devoured this place. He did not want to wait for the news from inside the walls, gnawing with worry.
He did not learn Magic and pursue the higher levels just to seek fascinating power, but most importantly, to protect the people close to him in this dangerous, hostile world…
——
Upon arriving at an alleyway built with bricks, the Swift Star Wolf went straight for the building at the end.
The Swift Star Wolf did not take the normal path. He leapt over the entrance by kicking off the walls and landed inside the residence.
Mo Fan was awakened by the sudden wild movement.
“She’s here?” Mo Fan washed his face with the rain. It was impossible to get a good sleep on a moving car, let alone in a situation when the undead could appear at anytime.
Before the Swift Star Wolf could respond, the door swung open. Liu Ru, dressed in fresh clothes like the girl next door stood by the door for a moment before she joyfully ran forward and fell into Mo Fan’s arms, like a sparrow returning to her nest.
If the Blood Tribe was able to shed tears, with her excited reaction, they would surely be found on her pale-white face.
“Did someone bully you?” asked Mo Fan with a frown as he sensed that something did not feel right about Liu Ru.
He glanced at the surroundings and saw a few men who looked like rascals tied up to the pillars. He immediately became furious!
The three men were dumbfounded. If they were not tied up, they would drop to their knees before Liu Ru and scream out that they were innocent.
They would not dare to bully Liu Ru. As a matter of fact, Liu Ru was the one that had bullied them, until they began to beg her for mercy.
“It’s not them…we’ll talk inside,” Liu Ru led Mo Fan into the house, which surprisingly had a Kang bed-stove in it. It was very warm, which felt very soothing to the fatigued Mo Fan. The cold rain never stopped falling, even a Fire Magician would find it unbearable.
{TL Note: Search ‘Kang bed-stove’ on Google if you want to know what it looks like.}
“You look very weak,” said Mo Fan.
“Mm, I lost a fair amount of my origin blood after I was injured,” Liu Ru nodded and told Mo Fan the sequence of events, from Fang Gu showing up, to her protecting the villagers of Hua Village.
Liu Ru knew Mo Fan would come looking for her, so she did not leave even when the purple alert was sounded. She simply waited for him here, as she was still weak and not as strong as before. She did not dare to go out there searching for him.
“I thought I would be safer after I found you…” said Mo Fan with a wry smile.
Mo Fan’s current feeling was like someone paying his long-distance girlfriend a visit during the seven days holiday around the National Day, and planning to do shameless things together. However, his girlfriend’s period happened to pay her a visit at the same time, too…
“But with you here, I can recover quickly!” Liu Ru’s eyes flickered when she saw Mo Fan’s reaction, like an empress getting excited after successfully luring a little fresh meat into her trap!
{TL Note: Search ‘little fresh meat’ if you don’t know what it means, it’s an Internet buzz word in China.}
Before Mo Fan could understand what she meant, an alluring scent a.s.sailed his nose, followed by hot lips kissing his neck. The sensation was so pleasant that it felt like he was electrified.
Liu Ru could not wait any longer. She was a member of the Blood Tribe after all, hence she could not withstand the desire to drink fresh blood. She was already controlling herself not to drink the blood of those filthy men, but her red Yakult was now standing in front of her, and she could no longer restrain the urge.
{Ed. Note: It’s a daily probiotic drink}
“Wait until I lie down… oh!” Mo Fan’s body suddenly felt numb before he could finish the sentence.
Normally, Mo Fan only offered his blood while he was asleep. Liu Ru, who had feelings for him was not willing to wake him up from his sleep, but they were in an urgent situation now. Blood serums could at most help the Blood Tribe adjust their condition, they were nowhere as effective as fresh blood. Besides, Liu Ru had only become a Blood Tribe after drinking Mo Fan’s blood, so it was more or less her origin blood.
When Mo Fan first met Liu Ru she looked a little haggard; his first impression of her was elegant and graceful, like an orchid… but she extremely thirsty after losing too much blood and now as crazed as a leopard. She pushed Mo Fan against the wall and sucked his blood wildly!
Although he was losing blood, a certain part of his body did not seem to lack blood at all. In the past, Mo Fan had always ambushed Xinxia like a starving wolf pouncing on a sheep when she was not paying any attention. He would push her down on the couch or bed and do everything evil possible, yet he was in her shoes today, and it felt… it felt quite pleasant. No wonder Xinxia never resisted… oh, she could not resist even if she wanted to…
The sound of the raindrops tapping on the roof came clearly. The roars of the starving zombies would echoed in the alleyway at times. The clouds of death with no visible end loomed over the place, almost overwhelming the tall buildings across the city…but it did not stop the man and the woman in the cozy, warm hut sticking together closely on the wall.
Mo Fan raised his head, as he thought a storm was about to come. He was just about to throw the calamity that he was involved in out of his mind when everything came to a stop.
“It’s over?”
Mo Fan lowered his head in confusion and looked down at Liu Ru, who had yet to fully enjoy herself.
“What do you think?” Liu Ru glanced back at Mo Fan. Her lips, which were pale initially, were now bright red.
“Oh, that was fast,” Mo Fan said awkwardly.
“You’re tired too, I don’t dare to drink too much of your blood…” Liu Ru said in a serious manner. “Besides, weren’t you trying to poke me with your fingers?”
Saying this, Liu Ru suddenly discovered Mo Fan’s hands raised up on both sides of her. They exchanged glances with one another, and Liu Ru instantly blushed.
Mo Fan uttered a hollow laugh. He looked at the outside. -The weather today… isn’t bad, quite chilly though-. His finger? It would take at least two of his fingers to make up to his size!
“Your…your energy feels empty, I… I can help you…” Liu Ru’s voice was soft as a mosquito.
