39.Depend on each other (page 2/2)
What's going on with all these rampaging psychic powers around??
Adele stood up and walked out of the broken carriage, and then her pupils dilated in shock. When she saw Cadman City being dragged into the star realm and the absolutely abnormal environment around it, she realized that something was wrong..
Although she hasn't fully adapted to her new power yet, she knows she has to get going..
“Hey?”
When Adele took back her rapier and handgun from the coffin, she suddenly felt that there was some more knowledge in her mind, which seemed to be a summoning technique given to her by her elders..
The housekeeper with a hot figure and a cold face hesitated for a moment before trying her first summons..
She thought it would be hard.
But in fact, just like the instinct of eating and drinking, the whole process was completed without any ambiguity. With a loud howl, an astral wolf the size of a hound appeared at her feet..
The disembodied creature circled Adele twice and licked her fingers in an ingratiating manner..
“You came just in time.”
Mrs. Adele took out the eldest lady’s notebook from the coffin next to her, gave it to her astral wolf to sniff, then waved forward and ordered:
“take me to her.”

“Ahem”
Tris, who was lying in the ruins of the manor, coughed a few times with difficulty. Thick blood spurted out from her mouth, which meant that she was in extreme condition at this time..
Next to Tris lay a huge and decomposing corpse. It was a strange creature made up of horrifying tentacles, a black-gray chitin carapace and crab-like claws..
It is ferocious and strange when it is alive, and after death it will continue to release filthy energy to impact the hearts of the surrounding beings..
Killing this guy almost exhausted Tris's last bit of psychic energy, making it difficult for her to even move..
Tris felt like she was going to die..
Of course, for vampires, this may be an illusion caused by "anemia".
Her body was already numb from the stinging pain, and to make matters worse, it was actually snowing in the sky, which was already as dark as a sandstorm..
That's black "snow"”.
Pieces fell to the ground, and then turned into psychic embers and disappeared..
Tris, a former psychic master, knew that this was a strange environmental phenomenon caused by the astral psychic energy being assimilated with the material world. This meant that the land was being integrated into the mysterious and dangerous astral world..
She must leave quickly, otherwise she will never be able to be assimilated again..
However, Tris has no strength at all now.
She was lying on her back in the ruins of black falling snow, her coquettish red eyes widened under her disheveled hair, looking at the magnificent sky spinning above her head like an energy vortex..
This is a rare scenery in the material world.
Probably because she was mentally shocked by the astral creature just now, Tris actually had some strange associations at this moment..
She vaguely remembered...
When I picked up little Murphy more than a year ago, it was also a cold and snowy day..
That day, she had just helped a wealthy man who was doing business between the local area and Port Chardonnay achieve his first love. The guy who came to Cadman City to visit her received the coveted "eternal life". In return, the rich man Gifted one-third of his fortune to Trish.
Tris originally planned to use this windfall to buy a wine cellar and repair her manor..
Later, she met Murphy who was about to starve to death on the street in the city..
It was snowing and very cold that day. Eighteen-year-old Murphy fell on the road wearing only a single coat. It was the eighth year of the Ten Years' War. Fugitives like Murphy were everywhere. Cadman City would starve to death every day. people.
Tris has forgotten why she brought Murphy back.
Maybe it was just because I got drunk that night and suddenly had a whim, maybe it was because I suddenly felt kindhearted..
Maybe he couldn't bear to see such a lovely life taken away by death. In short, it seemed that he had another heir in the blink of an eye..
As before, the money earned is quickly spent.
But this time, the guy he picked up seemed different from all the previous heirs. He actually didn't leave her. It was like a gentle dream that would never wake up..
“Tris... Tris... are you okay? Don't scare me...open your eyes! It's me! Tracey...”
The familiar call seemed to come from the horizon, causing the dazed Tris' consciousness to return to the material world bit by bit..
She suddenly saw Murphy's handsome and cute face again.
But she knew that this was just the remnants of the astral monster's mental pollution taking effect on her. The illusion she saw at the end of her life was actually this little guy....
But little Murphy has obviously left!
The child listened to her words and left Cadman City forever and went to a safer place. He avoided herself and his bad luck, so how could he still appear next to her??
The black snow in the sky is falling bigger and bigger.
This was a sign of greater danger coming, but she had no intention of resisting this damn fate..
She has never been smooth in her life!
From childhood to old age, she has really had enough of the mockery from fate for more than four hundred years..
“Tracey!”
Another call sounded, making Tris very irritated as she wanted to close her eyes in the snow..
She stretched out her hand with difficulty to dispel the illusion in front of her, but the next moment, her raised hand was grabbed, and then her whole body was held in a warmer embrace for a vampire..
Half-kneeling in the black snow, he hugged him so tightly, as if he was holding the most precious treasure in life..
“Great, Tris, you're alive... I'm back, Tris, Murphy is back. Sorry, I'm late. It's great that you're okay....”
This unfamiliar and uncomfortable feeling of being hugged brought Tris back to her senses..
She shook her head vigorously, feeling her body being picked up from the ground. She finally understood everything, but then a surge of anger rose from her heart..
“Didn’t I let you go? Why come back! You damn kid! Disobedient...”
She scolded and reached out to slap Murphy in the face, but in the end she was too weak to complete the action, so she could only let Murphy put the midnight cloak on her and then carry her behind his back..
“Don't be afraid, I'll take you out of here, hold on!”
Murphy asked Tris behind him softly..
He stepped towards the collapsed city wall against the growing black snow, and behind him, the weak Tris buried her head on Murphy's shoulder..
Unfortunately, during the battle just now, sand seemed to have entered her eyes, and now she felt very uncomfortable and wanted to secrete some kind of weak substance..
Fortunately, vampires don't shed tears, and naturally no one can see her terrible expression at this time..
Otherwise, you will definitely be laughed at by others.?
After all, the vampire world she was familiar with was far from as gentle as the midnight blessing and the hug at this time..
“Little Murphy...”
“Um?”
“I want to drink...”
“How long have you been drinking? Bear with it! Go out and find you something better.”
“No...if you don't drink, the wound will hurt...”
“Is this why you became addicted to alcohol? Why didn't you say it before? Okay, I'll help you look for it on the road, be patient..”
“oh.”
Under the dark, gloomy, crazy and dangerous sky, the whirlpool of astral spiritual energy is like a black sun, emitting a dark and evil light in the scattered black snow, stretching Murphy's figure forward in the snow, It also made Tris behind him almost blend into his shadow..
It seems like we can no longer be separated from each other.
Well, the last descendant of Mrs. Tracey’s long life seems to be really different from other heartless guys..
Perhaps it was because she had been unlucky and used all the luck she had accumulated in her life on that cold night a year ago.?
