Putting aside his character, Xu Da is a fine young man with a bright future ahead of him. How could he possibly go astray?
To his utter surprise, Xu Fang admitted on the phone: "I've done something wrong. I used high-level magic in the city."
"What!?"
Night Hawk was startled: "You've reached a higher level... Putting that aside for now, has this caused any damage to the buildings or injuries?"
“The building…” Xu Fang turned around and glanced at the Northland Club, which was half collapsed and scorched like a honeycomb: “It must be damaged.”
"What about people!"
"He's alright."
Night Hawk breathed a sigh of relief, but before he could speak, Xu Fang said again, "I don't think those beasts were human after they were killed."
Night Hawk: "!!!"
After hanging up the phone, Xu Fang stood there with his hands in his pockets.
Not long after, amidst gasps of surprise from the onlookers, a figure with wings on its back swept across the sky and landed in front of Xu Fang.
"Where's your leather jacket?" Xu Fang asked curiously.
Night Hawk smirked. What the hell is going on... He walked past Xu Fang and looked at the ruins of the Northern Club. He said in a deep voice, "You have to come with me."
"I know." Xu Fang readily extended his hands. "Should we handcuff them?"
"That won't be necessary." Nighthawk couldn't help but sigh. Now you're all high and mighty, a law-abiding citizen? Where were you all this time?!
After a brief handover with the police at the scene, the judges from the trial committee took over the area and will conduct an on-site investigation and analysis.
Xu Fang followed Night Hawk back to the courtroom and sat in the chair of regret.
Touching the familiar coolness of the chair, Xu Fang felt a pang of nostalgia. The last time he sat in this thing was in the ancient capital, when he blew up the forging room of the Clock Tower Magic Association...
This time, it was also an explosion, but not because of a bomb, but because of high-level magic. Time waits for no one.
"Xu Fang, 21 years old, a sophomore and top student at Mingzhu Academy, assisted in the purge in Shanghai, and just a few days ago exchanged a blue-clad corpse for a bounty of 120 million..."
The old judge sitting opposite Xu Fang read the document aloud, looking at him with puzzlement: "Someone as talented as you, how could you not even know about the Mage's Covenant?"
Article 1 of the Mage's Covenant: No mage may use destruction magic of a higher rank than that in a city, and the use of destruction magic of a lower rank must be justified.
Article 2 of the Magicians' Covenant: Magicians may not use magic on ordinary people; violators will be prosecuted for murder.
Xu Fang sat in the chair of regret, his expression calm: "They deserve to die."
“We have already briefly looked into the matter. The man named Nie Dong did commit murder, but there is no valid evidence against the others, including Nie Hong, who was gnawed to the skeleton. Strictly speaking, it was just a home invasion kidnapping, and it was an attempted one at that.”
The old judge said in a deep voice.
Killing someone without any evidence is absolutely unacceptable to the court!
Xu Fang corrected, "They are vampires, not people."
Before the old judge could say anything more, the door opened and Nighthawk walked in.
"presiding judge!"
"Sit down." Night Hawk sat down as well, looking at Xu Fang with a headache: "You were too impulsive. Why didn't you notify the trial committee beforehand?"
This is not a fair world to begin with; there is a natural generation gap between magicians and ordinary people.
In order to restrain this enormous power and prevent it from getting out of control, the Magic Associations of the Five Continents have established extremely strict regulations!
In particular, there are three ironclad rules that must not be violated!
But Xu Fang made two mistakes at once... which even made the seasoned Night Hawk a little flustered, so worried that he wanted to pull his hair out.
"Don't get worked up." Xu Fang spread his hands: "Vampires aren't human, they're just demons at most. I'm just doing a good deed."
The old judge glared, about to say something, when Nighthawk slammed his hand on the table: "That's right! As long as we prove vampires aren't human, isn't that enough?"
In the West, vampires are generally considered to be on the human side, but in China, due to their small numbers, the definition of them has always been vague.
This creates an opportunity to exploit loopholes.
"I'll report to my superiors immediately. Old He, find him a place to stay," Night Hawk instructed before hurriedly leaving.
The old judge was at a loss for words, but Xu Fang said considerately, "It's alright, just arrange any dormitory for me, I'm not picky."
······
Shanghai is vast enough to make one feel as insignificant as an ant, vast enough to accommodate two different worlds. The flames of the Northern Club cannot burn away the silence elsewhere.
It's quiet at night.
Between a row of office buildings, a strange figure moved freely in the shadows of the corridor.
He was incredibly fast, like a gray whirlwind, hanging upside down in front of a tempered glass door.
Nie Dong coldly stared at the city.
Normally, he would have already chosen his next target at the Northern Club, but not now.
He was abandoned by his "elders" and became a wandering vampire.
The reason was simply because he had attracted those few lowly hunter mages!
"They clearly possess bodies and strengths surpassing those of humans, yet they choose to live like rats in the shadows..." Nie Dong sneered, "These vampires are better off not staying!"
From now on, no one will whisper those dogmas in his ear anymore. He can hunt freely and drink as much blood as he wants!
Unfortunately, Liu Ru, whom he has his eye on, is still in the underground wine cellar; he'll have to find a chance to get her over there...
"Whoosh!"
A strange wind swept in, carrying a scent that was both unfamiliar and familiar to those around them.
"who!?"
The newcomer did not utter a sound, only its pair of overlapping sharp claws came slashing down!
Nie Dong was both shocked and furious. He barely managed to dodge using his fighting instincts. His leather bat wings spread open, and he could barely make out the other person's face.
"Liu... Liu Ru?"
Nie Dong stared at the extremely angry woman in front of him and called out her name in horror.
"You've become a vampire? How is that possible?! How is that possible?!"
Chapter 220 The Vampire's Positioning and Planning
With her fair face, bright red lips, and blood-stained teeth exposed to the air, Liu Ru's face remained unchanged, but her once delicate and charming appearance now exuded a dangerous aura.
Those beautiful eyes were now filled with hatred and pain, which chilled Nie Dong to the bone!
Enraged, he shouted, "Who! Damn it... who gave you their bloodline!"
Liu Ru is his ideal partner!
Everything he did, whether it was killing or sucking blood, was for this delicious woman—but now, someone else has beaten him to it!
"Is it Nie Hong?"
A vampire's strength depends on two factors: the different blood they acquire through hunting, and even more so on their "elders."
They're like dogs, they value lineage; the stronger the elders, the stronger the descendants.
It must be her. Liu Ru's aura was so terrifying; besides Nie Hong, there couldn't possibly be anyone else...
"go to hell!"
Liu Ru pounced on her frantically, launching a fierce attack!
Her speed was unimaginable; her claws left purple afterimages as she pierced through Nie Dong's body with a single strike.
Nie Dong dodged with all his might, narrowly avoiding a fatal blow to the neck, but his heart was crushed into a bloody mist.
"How is this possible? How could your power be... uh!"
Nie Dong's coat was grabbed by Liu Ru and slammed against the tempered glass, forcing his entire body into the glass.
"Damn it! Damn it!"
Nie Dong tried desperately to climb out. He was furious that Liu Ru, who was supposed to be his servant, actually had a bloodline that was superior to his own!
In just one day, they completely overwhelmed me in both speed and strength!
Not to mention myself, even Nie Hong is not of such a high level!
Driven by intense jealousy, he lost all sense of the situation and charged forward with a roar, extending his claws.
But then he realized that his originally black arm had turned purple, and strange blisters were appearing on his skin like boiling water.
"burst!"
Liu Ru said coldly.
Bang bang bang...
A series of muffled thuds.
Unlike Xu Fang's human bombs, Liu Ru could only make her opponents self-destruct—of course, for Nie Dong, there was no difference between the two.
His entire body—or rather, half of his body—was embedded in the glass, a bloody mess, and he finally realized that he was about to die.
"Let me go, I promise I won't hurt anyone... I... I can go to your sister's grave and kowtow to confess my sins..."
"Don't you dare mention my sister!"
Liu Ru's voice was sharp and piercing as she punched Nie Dong in the chest.
puff!
It looks like a ripe watermelon.
Blood splattered, but Liu Ru felt not craving, but rather disgust.
Nie Dong's throat was filled with blood, and he mumbled incoherently. He watched in horror as Liu Ru raised her hand, this time aimed at his head!
Liu Ru's smile was full of the joy of revenge. In her subconscious, there was even a desire to spare Nie Dong's life and make him suffer such pain day and night, every moment!
Xu Fang's face flashed through her mind.
She still wants to go find him...
