204 The Taste Of Death
At times, even the impossible would become something possible. For example, Huo Kun being murdered by someone who wasn't an audience. For example, Su Bai would actually use such extreme methods of letting out his blood to expunge the poison.
Just like when Su Bai relied on the two Hellfire Shotguns and his storage of ammunition to kill an audience who was much stronger than himself.
Among audiences, there was an obvious gap between the strong and the weak. But during actual combat, it wasn't just comparison of strengths written on a piece of paper. Otherwise, every time the audiences clashed, they could just take out a form and fill up their enhancement level and equipment to decide victory and defeat without any battle.
Huo Kun's death was a huge mistake. If time could flow backward, restarting it again ten times, perhaps Huo Kun would not fall into the trap. But there are no ifs in this world. Once you're dead, you're dead.
In the washroom, Su Bai who was filled with sinister and filthy aura looked at the man in front of him with a calm demeanor. The man's breathing was no longer calm as he used to be. To these types of people who boasted as geniuses, they were used to placing everything within their design and plans.
Su Bai's withered arm reached out. It was as if a layer of crumpled skin wrapped around the arm and headed towards that man's neck.
"BANG!"
"BANG!"
"BANG!"
The man started firing but sparks were seen and the bullets were reflected when they touched Su Bai's chest. Su Bai's body only swayed a little, not much damage was done. Under the zombie mode, Su Bai had strong physical defense. Even though Su Bai had two lineages, the level of his zombie mode had exceeded his vampire mode.
With the loss of the gun's effects, that man planned fight with his fist, but having a fist fight with a zombie, even if he was possessed by a ghost, it was still immature and laughable.
There results were obvious. That man was possessed and his originally heavily-injured body was forcefully conformed. What was left was actually a body frame which could reluctantly move. When facing Su Bai, unless he used poison again, the outcome had long been decided. Of course, even if he used poison again, Su Bai's resistance to poison under the zombie mode was much higher than his normal self. It was just that Su Bai could not keep on maintaining the zombie mode normally.
"You... Can't..."
That man was lifted up by Su Bai by the throat.
At that moment, Su Bai had noticed that the energy from his zombie state was steadily dissipating, this state could not last very long at normal times. Furthermore, Su Bai had released most of his blood, he was in a weak state, that's why the duration of zombie state was shorter.
Luckily, Su Bai liked to be direct and efficient and did not like being sloppy when doing things.
"PIAK!"
Su Bai smashed that man's head into a glass wall and a loud ringing sound could be heard. Cracks could be seen on the glass wall, and that man's head was bleeding profusely.
"PIAK!"
There was the second smash.
When Su Bai was preparing to smash it a third time, black gas came out from that man's body. The little ghost wearing red female skirt-type swimwear was separated out.
"PIAK!
During the third smashing, that man's neck snapped. His whole body went limp on the ground, just like a pile of mud.
Su Bai stepped on his body. Hunger and emptiness emanated from Su Bai's body; after swaying a little, his zombie state was relieved and he knelt on the ground.
After Su Bai transformed back into a normal human, his skin was still wrinkled like an old man past his prime. His body was emitting an aura of death. This time, that aura was not threatening others but himself. He was dying.
He needed fresh blood, really needed fresh blood.
Su Bai's gaze fell on Huo Kun's body, he really liked the fresh blood of the strong. The effects were also great. Just when Su Bai was getting ready to crawl over to Huo Kun's corpse, he recalled something; Huo Kun was also poisoned. The poison in his blood was much more serious compared to Su Bai.
Su Bai's face suddenly revealed a bitter smile. He had no fate with Huo Kun's blood.
It really was...
Such a waste.
The next moment, Su Bai lowered his head. He checked out the corpse of the man next to him. Even though his body was smashed out of shape by Su Bai, there should be no poison in his blood. Perhaps he had taken the antidote before this, otherwise he would not have continued on living after Huo Kun had fallen with his ordinary body.
Su Bai placed both his hands on that man's shoulder as he lowered his head; his fangs descended.
Just when Su Bai was getting ready to pierce that man's body with his fangs while in dire need for fresh blood...
The boy wearing a red skirt quietly appeared behind Su Bai.
Both his hands...
Latched on Su Bai's neck.
When Su Bai felt a wave of energy coming from his back, his whole body was pulled back. He was being strangled and had no way of breathing.
The weakness of his body added together with the pain gave a suffocated feeling.
This led Su Bai to recall the treatment he received at Ying Yinger's office during the day.
"F*ck... Erotic Asphyxiation... At this moment...."
The ice-cold floor tiles,
The shriveled lifeless body,
The creased skin,
The bruises that were getting more and more serious on the neck,
The continuous cold laughter coming from the little ghost.
Su Bai at that moment had became a secondary character. At that moment and place, in the real world, he was experiencing despair like when facing the story world.
Su Bai's weak body had no way to retaliate, he could only endure passively. Even if he was not suffocated to death, if he had no way to replenish his blood within three to five minutes, it would be hard for him to escape death.
Both his fists were held tight and yet he had no strength to let go.
The boy's laughter kept on stimulating Su Bai's eardrums and nerves. It was like mournful songs played during a funeral procession, letting others feel anxious and unsettled.
The Hellfire Shotguns were Su Bai's most reliable weapons, but this time, he had no way of using them. It was only at that moment Su Bai was clear-headed and realized, even if he had weapons which caused others to envy, if he did not continuously enhance himself to the right standards, it would be hard for him to survive by relying on just weapons.
Su Bai's chest was burning hot and anxious due to the strangulation. His consciousness started fading, the effects of the erotic asphyxiation had gradually appeared.
Su Bai gradually started feeling drowsy. This red-dressed boy was not Ying Yinger, Ying Yinger was a professional and knew when to hold back. She would not allow her customer to lose their lives. However, the red-dressed boy wanted his life.
Bewilderment.
Emptiness.
Loneliness.
Many negative emotions started filling Su Bai's heart. Huo Kun died in vain; he had died abruptly without even displaying his abilities. It seemed like he was going to follow the steps of the other party.
Just as Su Bai's consciousness faded, the grip on his neck was released.
"Ahhhh..."
Fresh air flowed into his lungs, Su Bai took in fresh air greedily in huge mouthfuls. At the same time, he leaped toward that man's corpse just like a mad dog and bit through his flesh, sucking the other party's blood frantically like a hungry tiger feeding.
Gulp gulp...
When the flesh blood entered Su Bai's stomach, his body became enlivened once more. The wrinkled skin vanished, his lax pupils became focused; he had finally climbed back up from the point of demise.
When the corpse of that man dried up, Su Bai let out a bestial roar. Both his arms and legs were spread out as he lied on the ground.
The boy kept on circling around Su Bai. He had spontaneously let go of his hand just when Su Bai was on the brink of death, otherwise, Su Bai would die without a doubt.
Su Bai was feeling weary from escaping death; he only wanted to lie down for a moment. After sucking blood, he couldn't be considered completely recovered, but was around forty or fifty percent of his optimal state. The Hellfire Shotguns were still by his side.
However, that red-dressed boy no longer posed a threat to him; he would just let him wander around him for a moment.
The boy looked at Su Bai and revealed a weird smile; he kept on skipping around in a very excited mood. He was obviously making a din.
At that moment, Su Bai suddenly recalled his conversation with Fatty over the phone.
Fatty had said that the murderer was a human and not a ghost. That little ghost was not really a malicious spirit; he only wanted to find a playmate because he was lonely.
Su Bai climbed up from the ground. The boy was still skipping around in front of Su Bai. At that moment, Su Bai could see clearly that the other party's smile seemed weird because of his image, but this smile came from deep within his soul.
Su Bai pulled out the Hellfire Shotguns. Both hands were placed at the side of his body, the trigger of both guns could be pulled anytime to blow up the boy. That level of little ghost had no way to resist the destructive force of the Hellfire Shotguns.
Su Bai's chest was puffing up and down indicating his emotions were not very stable.
Seeing the red dressed boy skipping around and doing many actions in front of him, Su Bai couldn't help but to think of a children's song:
"Finding friends, finding a good friend, give a bow and shake a hand, you are my best friend..."
Perhaps he really was just lonely and wanted to find a playmate.
And he felt that
Erotic Asphyxiation was the most marvellous enjoyment in the world
That's why he was willing to let Su Bai try it out.
It could be considered...
A sharing among best friends.
