Unfathomable Doomsday Chapter 2

2 – Neverwinter Nights1

After the WW3, the New China Federation Celestial Empire's alliance encompa.s.sed the union of several Asian countries, which then became a behemoth.2

To confront the USA and the EU

This world's appearance after WW3 became utterly grim the countries are secretly vary of each other, as they keeping each other in check.

The development of science and technology, and the powerful supernatural abilities became the subject of grooming for each each country.

It's not Lu Qiu's business.

"Whew." Lu Qiu moved away from his small room. The room lies in a residential roof, in the slums of the New China Federation's Wen Han City.

Lu Qiu had no choice but to hide here, because of his ident.i.ty of a Vampire, as the Church's Exorcists run amuck for ages, he was always a target to hunt down and kill.   

How much was the bounty that the Church offered when it listed Lu Qiu as wanted?

A full 700,000 of New Federal Currency.

Even for the most fiendish criminal, the bounty won't be more than this.

Lu Qiu is clear about what kind of end his kind will receive when captured by the Church's Exorcists.

He himself doesn't has any power …. and so can only watch his younger burned to death by the Church.

Now …. there's no need to continue hiding.

Lu Qiu looked at the red liquid swaying in his hand, his scarlet pupils flashing in the black night.

I already have the power to get my revenge.

"So cold." Lu Qiu on the roof, once again looked at the distant glimmering lights of the city. He exhaled another breath which condensed into a white mist, as it was now deep winter. Lu Qiu was only wearing a piece T-shirt and a pair of jeans as he directly went out.

On one hand exhausted, on the other hand, Lu Qiu as Vampire fundamentally doesn't has any body warmth.

Blood …. has long since been frozen without any warmth.

After the system's strengthening, Lu Qiu felt that his body already reached an ordinary Vampire's level.

Strength and agility seem to be around three times that of a human's.

Lu Qiu lowered his head to look at the three storey residential building, then without any hesitation, directly jumped down.

A road worn down by years of disrepair emitted sorrowful sounds, as large amounts of fissures propagate from Lu Qiu.

“The Power is not bad.”

Lu Qiu felt the extent to which his body was strengthened.

“Like this, not even a D-level Exorcist would be a match.”

Putting aside the matter of the Church.

The only objective is the current world’s destruction and the procurement of Despair Points.

Lu Qiu looked at the contrast between the distant glimmering city and the ghetto, slightly reminiscing about the city’s construction.

The city is built by the riverside, there’s a dam upstream, supplying the entire city with water, as well as the residents drinking water.

Furthermore, the dam is quite close.

As long as the virus is dumped within the dam, not long after, the city will become h.e.l.l.3

Lu Qiu walked toward the direction of the dam.

In this somber ghetto, what can there be … in this night one could spot quite a few pa.s.sers-by, only in the residential area do the roads seem somewhat desolate.4

Lu Qiu made some noise just a moment ago, but he didn’t let anyone take notice of it. Granted that, even if someone noticed, they also wouldn’t dare to make to give voice.

Lu Qiu entered an alley without street light, a moment later, he saw a delightful scene.5

A few oddly dressed young men, holding knife’s, while making them spin, as they watched a seemingly very young woman.

The woman was wearing what should be an office worker’s clothes, while going home she must have been inattentive for a moment and then met this group of young men.

Robbery?No, not as simple as that.

Her clothes already can’t cover up her body.

Lu Qiu took a glimpse at the woman’s skin exposed under her messy clothing, as suddenly a whiff of an odd desire welled up in Lu Qiu’s mind.

“Have you seen something good?Quickly scram if you want to die. “Among them, a tall bald guy pointed the handle of a shiny small knife towards Lu Qiu, gestured with it and ordered Lu Qiu to leave.

At first Lu Qiu wanted to leave, but then he heard this guy’s clamor.

Lu Qiu lowered his head and silently walked into the alley.

“Hey, you want to save this chick?In what era are we?Kid, you still putting on appearances in this kind of situation?”

Seeing Lu Qiu seeking death while entering the alley by himself, the several tall young men mocked and pointed their small knifes towards him.

“I’m going to stab you!Hah … I’ll teach you a little lesson, so that you stop trying to be a hero.”

“Sorry. “Lu Qiu raised his head, pupils emitting a scarlet light, letting these your men be in a daze. “I ah, loath heroes more than anything, this type of child’s play.”

“Wh … what?!”

“Woo ah ah ah!”

In the midst of their astonishment came an acute pain in their abdomens. Lu Qiu, with a body approximately three times as powerful as a human’s, kicked ruthlessly at their abdomens.

Their backs were slammed with great strength against the wall.

“Kid, you have some ability! “The tallest bald guy, whom Lu Qiu hasn’t payed much attention, immediately reacted and managed to pull out a knife, to directly trust towards Lu Qiu’s head.

“Still … ” Lu Qiu split open his lips, staring at the guy, mouth full of shark-like teeth which was particularly terrifying: “I hate to be bleeding!”

The tall bald guy was kicked in an instant, sending his body to be struck against the wall unable to ever get up.

The appraisal would be that the lower body is completely wrecked.

After settling things, Lu Qiu went to sit beside the wall. The woman was only partially covered by her clothing.

A truly a beautiful young lady, with appall still coloring her face.

However she became dazed after seeing Lu Qiu’s face under the moonlight.

Lu Qiu’s appearance, in addition to the pale white skin, was truly alluring to human females.

“Thank you for saving me. “The woman seemed to feel that she was already safe, and so she tidied up her clothes and stood up shakily: “If … there’s a way that i can repay you.”

“Of course you can.”

The sinister voice rang in the alley.

Lu Qiu’s pupils made the woman feel fear!

Comparing to the several young man … this male is even more terrifying!

Lu Qiu extended his hands to take a hold of the women’s neck, revealed his canines under her fearful gaze and ruthlessly bit down

Then the woman’s fearful shriek rang through out the alley. The shriek gradually became weaker, the pupils began to dilate and the resistance also became weaker.

Fresh blood flew from her body, spreading in all direction, as the sound of a trembling pharynx gradually reverberated in the surroundings.6

“Tch!”After the meal, Lu Qiu threw the woman’s body to the side, and spit out the rests of the fresh blood.

At the same time cleaning the corner of his mouth.

“Are non-virgins truly so unpalatable?”

A young lady’s fresh blood is a Vampire’s pa.s.sion, and Lu Qiu is no exception.

Looking at the humans on the ground beneath the moonlight, Lu Qiu momentarily did not care to continue towards the dam.

At this moment the system’s notification sounded beside Lu Qiu’s ears.

Why only 1 point? Lu Qiu smelled the air of the surroundings, which were already devoid of life.

The bodies of the few young men were too weak, as they died with just one kick from Lu Qiu.

But why only 1 Despair Point?

Could it be that …

Lu Qiu looked at the expressions of the several dead young men, and then looked to the ground at the expression that the young woman had before death.

Tears and never-ending fear spread on the woman’s face, staring, eyes still disbelieving. How come this kind of thing happened to her?

So it’s like this?

This is the so-called Despair ah.

Lu Qiu finally understand the meaning behind the Despair Points. If all the humans are caught in this Despair, then he will become an Ancestor, right?7

There’s no … way to compare to an Ancestor, this powerful Vampire.

Lu Qiu went towards the dam with an expectant mood.
