super pocket watch

Serena and Lucien, who were originally calm, suddenly twitched their faces, and their previously dull and indifferent eyes glowed with dazzling light at this moment. The reason why they followed Tang Bai and treated him

Isn't it because of the promise he made to them that he bowed his head and obeyed his orders?

Even though this promise was too illusory and more like a lie, in their state of mind at that time, it was like a life-saving straw, drifting past them.

Lucien's great revenge was avenged, and Victor, who executed Sonya with his own hands, ended up dead. The dissolution of hatred also caused the reason that supported Lucien's life to come to an end. Serena, on the other hand, because of her own family

After his death, she was deceived and betrayed by Victor, whom she regarded as her father, which gave rise to a feeling of loneliness and sadness without anyone around her.

It can be said that at that time, both Lucien and Serena had a sense of confusion and emptiness in their hearts, not knowing the future. They were afraid of what was coming, and they were forced to face the empty and joyless world.

A meaningless future.

Tang Bai's promise at that time was to pass a straw to the two of them at the most appropriate time. A "straw" that allowed them to face the future calmly again. In fact, their promise to Tang Bai was also

It's not that convinced.

Emotion and reason are often opposites.

Emotionally, Lucien and Serena were very willing to believe in the promise made by Tang Bai. But rationally, they persisted in persuading them that the resurrection of the dead was impossible. Then

It was not a simple death, but the entire body was burned to ashes and rotted into withered bones.

It is conceivable that when two people who originally only held on to a little hope in their hearts heard Tang Bai's confirmed words, what kind of fluctuations of emotions they would have.

"Really?" Lucien looked in disbelief. His body sitting on the sofa was trembling slightly, and even his voice was trembling. Although Serena on the side did not speak, she also

Looking at Tang Bai expectantly, he obviously had the same intention as Lucien and wanted to get a positive answer from Tang Bai again.

"Of course. This is what I promised." Tang Bai affirmed.

"I always thought it was just a lie." After receiving Tang Bai's confirmed reply, Lucien slumped down as if the previous sentence had consumed all the strength in his body, always with a hint of despair.

And the sad face once again glowed with a joy from the heart.

"I understand." Tang Bai nodded, his eyes falling on Serena aside: "As many people as you want to resurrect, prepare as many living people as possible, as well as their bones, ashes, or items they often wear. Otherwise,

, I can’t resurrect the dead out of thin air for the time being. I don’t have that ability yet.”

"This is not a problem, I will bring their bones and ashes to you." Serena nodded without hesitation. Now that things have developed, even if Tang Bai's words are still a lie and trap, she is willing to do so.

Jump in.

Now, just like Lucien who had spent nearly a thousand years in despair and regret, she had nothing to lose.

"That necklace!" Lucien couldn't wait to explain before Tang Bai asked him: "The necklace that exists as one of the two keys is one that Sonya has been wearing close to her body. Is this okay?"

Lucien's tone of voice was undisguisedly uneasy. His eyes, which seemed to be red and bloodshot due to insomnia, stared at Tang Bai without blinking, with that expression on his face.

He looked nervous and worried about gains and losses, fearing that he would hear words from Tang Bai's mouth that would make him despair.

"It will succeed, don't worry, you will meet her again in this world eventually." Tang Bai was touched by Lucien's nervous look.

Even though he and Lucien were not the same kind of people, he did not agree with Lucien's behavior and methods in some aspects. But in terms of persistence and perseverance in feelings, Tang Bai had to admire him. If it were a different situation, Tang Bai could not help but admire him.

If so, Tang Bai didn't know whether he, who grew up in an impetuous world, could be like Lucien, who has been in love with a woman for nearly a thousand years and has deep affection. But there is a high possibility that he can't do it.

.

Tang Bai knew very well about himself. Compared to Lucien who used hatred to suppress his emotions in order to maintain his sanity in the midst of indifference and despair, Tang Bai had been forced to learn not to act out of emotion and to follow the rules as much as possible before he reached adulthood.

A sensible attitude toward life.

Even if his lover throws himself into the arms of others, although Tang Bai has felt uncomfortable before, he can use his reason to suppress the bitterness in his heart. When a lover who has feelings for both parties leaves you, let go of some irreconcilable aspects of your personality.

In addition to conflicts and dissatisfaction, there are more influences and disturbances from external factors.

Tang Bai was not someone like Lucien who was easy to get into trouble emotionally. The other man just made a choice between two men, and then he was eliminated. After feeling uncomfortable, he would not harbor any deep-seated resentment.

The other party didn't choose him just because he wasn't good enough. And when he becomes good, there will naturally be more, better and more suitable choices for him.

Lucien could pick it up but couldn't let it go, while Tang Bai could pick it up and let it go. Because in Lucien's heart, his lover came first. But in Tang Bai's heart, his lover came first.

Relatives, friends, and your own pursuits.

This was a difference in philosophy and personality, but it did not prevent Tang Bai from appreciating Lucien's infatuated qualities.

It was obvious that after receiving Tang Bai's reminder, neither Lucien nor Serena had the intention to continue waiting or continuing the conversation. The two of them began to eagerly follow Tang Bai's request and reminder, and began

Prepared accordingly.

Selina needed to go to the cemetery of the vampire dynasty to pick up the bones of her parents. Victor, who adopted her, made an exception and allowed her parents and relatives to sleep undisturbed in that special place for those who died due to various reasons.

A cemetery where vampire nobles live.

By the way, we also need to find some human carriers that match the souls of our relatives. Lucien also needs to search and be busy.

"Can you really bring the dead back to life?"

After Lucien and Serena hurriedly said goodbye, Amelia, who had listened to the entire conversation between Tang Bai and the two of them like Riz, moved to where Serena had been sitting before.

The fiery body moved into a position that made her feel comfortable, leaning lazily on the soft sofa. Those emerald green eyes stared at Tang Bai with deep interest without blinking.

.

"Won't you be able to see us soon? Wait until Lucien and Serena prepare everything needed for the resurrection ceremony." Tang Bai did not emphasize or distinguish what to say, his expression and tone were somewhat noncommittal.

road.

"I'm just curious. I've lived for nearly two thousand years, and I've never heard of people like you existing." Amelia's expression was full of inquiry, as she had unlimited life and was able to survive enough.

In her long life, there are very few things that can arouse her strong interest and exploration**.

The longer you live, the more things you experience, the thicker the darkness you see, the more indifferent and cold your behavior and the heart in your chest become. Most of the things that interest you are interested in.

He has an incredible persistence and hobby.

"That shouldn't be regarded as your ignorance." Tang Bai said blankly, and then as if he thought of something, he asked again: "Do you think that, like Lucien and the others, you have any desire to be resurrected?

Is there anyone? If so, as long as you can provide me with what I need, I will be happy to help you when the time comes."

Amelia shook her head when she heard this: "No, I am different from Lucien and Serena. I have lived longer than them, and I have seen more clearly. Death is inevitable. Even if I am immortal, I will

Since this awakening ceremony, haven't you almost entered eternal sleep twice? You don't need to help me resurrect anyone."

…

Lucien and Serena were more urgent than Tang Bai guessed. Less than six days had passed since that meeting, and the two of them had already fulfilled Tang Bai's request perfectly.

, sufficient preparations have been made for this resurrection ceremony.

The venue for the resurrection ceremony was arranged in a basement of Amelia's manor.

The basement is very large and has been renovated according to Tang Bai's requirements.

Except for Tang Bai, the only people present in this basement were Serena, Lucien, Ritz, Amelia, and a few panic-stricken humans with faces full of fear and pleading. In order to avoid resurrection

The ceremony was interrupted, and Amelia sealed off the entire basement. Heavy manpower was deployed outside to strictly prohibit others from entering.

Tang Bai stood beside an excavated pool.

There is no real water in the pool, but a black mist that is as thick as ink and rolling like waves and mist. A rectangular stone platform is placed beside the pool. On the stone platform is tied a man with a full face.

A frightened woman who looks very similar to Serena and Sonya.

This is the sacrifice that Lucien has carefully selected over the past few days. At this moment, he is clenching his fingers into fists, his sharp nails digging deeply into the skin of his fingertips, his eyes are nervous and full of expectancy.

Tang Bai was holding a big black book and reading something loudly.

That big black book was familiar to Serena, Lucien and others who had witnessed the bloody night in the Vampire Castle. The bloody arch made of blood that is still fresh in people's memory is Tang Bai.

It was forged while holding this big black book. (To be continued.)
