Teresa won't starve

Since Teresa insisted on following, Katia did not refuse.

But don't forget that Teresa is not a burden without the ability to protect herself, and even stronger than her to a certain extent.To be honest, she might be the one being protected.

After making a decision, and with Theresa by her side, Katia didn't flinch anymore.

Walked firmly into the hall ahead.

Then they saw that on the 'throne' that should have been empty, there were now two girls who were older than Katia.

And judging from their appearance, they should still be sisters.

of course.

As a vampire, what Katia saw was not just the appearance, but a deeper layer of network veins that flowed like blood under their skin-blood energy.

They are all vampires without a doubt!

Katia unconsciously took a step to the side, covered half of Teresa's body behind her, and looked at the sisters on the throne: "Who are you? Why are you here?"

Hearing this voice, the older one, a girl with wavy red hair, opened her brown right eye above the tear mole and looked towards the place where the voice came from: "Oh? I don't know the same family, and there is another...cute little guy."

Her voice is beautiful, like a responsible sister's caring words.

It's just that after hearing her voice, Teresa didn't pay much attention to her, but looked at another girl who was sleeping on her shoulder with a puzzled face.

A little uncertainly called out: "Ali, Sha?"

That's right.

This girl and the girl in Teresa's memory, who can be regarded as a "sister" relationship at this time, have strikingly similar appearances.

It's just that whether it's the string on the left hand or the relatively mature face on the other side's face, they all remind her that the girl in front of her is not the 'Alyssa' she knows well.

"?"

The older sister was stunned for a moment, then picked up the chin of the sleeping sister who was resting on her shoulder, and the other passed through the back of her neck and circled around to caress her face, as if stroking a finely carved handicraft .

He rubbed his face against his sister's cheek, and looked at Teresa with that brown single eye: "What? Do you know my sister? A strange little girl."

This sentence is undoubtedly an admission, and this girl is 'Alyssa'.

only......

Sensing her left wrist again, Teresa could clearly feel the possession of the other half of the 'string', which was active in the west, which is extremely far away from here.

This made Theresa's heart full of confusion:

"I do not know."

what happened?

"..."

When the older sister heard such an 'inaccurate' answer, she couldn't help slightly furrowing her long and slender eyebrows. The quiet look of thinking would make people around her unconsciously fall into it-passively keep quiet.

After a while, the older sister asked: "Knowing is knowing, not knowing is not knowing. Why don't you know?"

"..."

Teresa didn't know how to answer this, she couldn't help but lowered her head and began to think about Alisa.

It's just that her behavior, as if she was deliberately concealing it, made her older sister a little unhappy.

"Don't you want to answer?"

As she spoke, she stood up and took a step forward.

Just when the footsteps were about to fall, Katia suddenly took a step sideways, just between her and Theresa, so that she could only see Katia, but not Theresa behind Katia.

This made her have to put her feet back again, and then looked at Katia: "Why do you want to interfere with me?"

"Theresa—"

Katia lowered her head and turned back slightly, as if she wanted to see Teresa behind her.It was just because the rotation was not wide enough that there was no way to see Teresa, and then he raised his head and looked at the other side: "It's my friend."

"friend?"

She squinted her coffee-colored eyes, trying to see that there was a trace of lying in Katia's eyes, because she really couldn't understand such words—like a little girl saying to a piece of toast on the dining table, "I want to make love to you." Friends' are just as ridiculous.

But Katia looked at her without hesitation, letting her understand the innocence and honesty that almost became a vampire and has never been erased.

Suddenly laughed out loud:

"You guys are quite interesting."

703 "Familiar name"

"interesting?"

The moment Katia was a little dazed, the older sister disappeared from the throne, and then immediately stood side by side with Katia, one behind the other.

And with his brown right eye, he glanced at Teresa standing behind her, and put it on Katia's side face again: "Since you have said so, come and prove your determination to me Bar."

"I......"

Before Katia could react, the elder sister put her hands on her shoulders, forcibly leading her away from Teresa, and was taken away from this palace somewhere.

It was not until this time that Teresa recovered from the memory of Alisa.

Just wanted to do something, but it was too late.

Teresa tried to use quantum entanglement to locate, but it seemed that because of the distance and the vague feeling of 'signal interference', she had to pin her hopes on Miss AI.

"Fimilis, help me find out where Katia is."

『【Agreement】Understood. 』

A large amount of data flowed from Miss AI's red pupils, and it only flowed for a while before stopping.It's not the 'end' after completing the 'calculation', but it's suspended as if it's stuck.

Just when Teresa was about to ask her, Miss AI lowered her head and asked Teresa.

"[Try] Captain, this space seems a bit special, and Femiris has encountered a disturbance she has never seen before.Fimilis needs a moment to parse. 』

The last sentence is actually an inquiry, asking Teresa if she wants to continue.

In this regard, Teresa can only agree.

"As soon as possible."

After all, she had no other choice.

After receiving the instructions, Femilis began to go all out to overcome the source of interference, and the data flow in her eyes also changed, and there were numbers under her eyes that seemed to be counting down.

01:56

Almost 2 minutes?

Teresa knew that this was actually quite fast, because even the top computer in the Honkai world would not be able to decipher completely unknown interference within 2 minutes.

Humans can't do it, and neither can machines. Only intelligent AI can make it possible.

It's just that 2 minutes is a bit 'too' long, and there are too many things that can happen in it; Theresa can only hope for the kindness of the opponent, and what hidden power Katia still has.

......

Ugh!

After standing beside Femilis for a while, Teresa glanced at at least a minute to finish.

So he stopped waiting here, but took this opportunity to come to the side of the throne, and took a closer look at the girl who was still sleeping until now.

Teresa tentatively touched her body a few times, and found that her breathing, heartbeat, and even body temperature were all there, as if she was still alive.It's just that the girl's reaction was as if she was dead, and she didn't have the slightest resistance to Teresa's behavior.

It's just like--

"Vegetable?"

The body is alive, but the consciousness is not.

Coupled with the string power of this world, it can theoretically interfere with personality and thinking, that is, the soul.

"Then is there such a possibility—"

『[Confirmation] The source of interference has been analyzed and blocked, and it is now connected to Ms. Katia.The scanned image has been transmitted to the captain's consciousness. 』

Teresa, who was thinking, suddenly had a three-dimensional architectural perspective in her mind, with several red dots moving in it.

Through the arrow mark and the name in the dialog box, Teresa can clearly know which is herself, which is Katia and——

Agatha!

It's a 'French' feminine name, which obviously doesn't fit the pronunciation standards of this world.

But what Teresa cares more about is her Chinese translation:

"Agatha."

After saying something in her mouth, Teresa took another look at the sleeping girl, and then looked at the ground under her feet, as if she could see the two girls on a certain floor below through layers of barriers.

704 "Questioning the Heart"

One second before, he was still in the palace, and the next moment, with the sudden weight on his shoulders, he came to an almost completely closed dark chamber.

Of course, this is nothing to a vampire who is 'born' to work with darkness.

In Katia's eyes, there is no difference in brightness between this place and the brightly lit ball, only the environment and decorations are different.

"here is......"

"This is the underground of Reggios Palace."

"!"

Katia heard the voice behind her, turned around quickly and took a few steps back.

However, Agatha, who turned her back to her, looked at the 'polished' walls that were not smooth, and said with a little emotion: "Originally, it was very difficult to dig such a deep underground space due to the limited manpower at that time. But who made me idle...it's just a little different from what I expected."

"how long have you been here?"

"Not long, just a few months. I'm a newcomer who was 'born' recently!"

It's good not to mention it, but when it was mentioned, Agatha couldn't help being surprised: "It's you, as a fellow who has existed for an unknown amount of time, and you are actually weaker than me, a newborn."

"You—" As soon as the footsteps moved, Agatha appeared beside Katia before she could react. She approached her cheek and sniffed it carefully, but she didn't smell the fragrance of 'blood': "How long has it been since I drank human blood?"

"Is it none of your business?"

Katia pushed away a few steps again.

Although such a small distance may not be meaningful, it can give her some comfort in her heart.

Perhaps because she felt that what she said was actually covering up something, Katia explained again: "I don't like the smell of blood."

"???"

Agatha was startled by this 'unbelievable' speech, and then laughed loudly: "Don't be kidding! As a vampire, it is impossible for you not to know the sweetness of blood! This is a taste that cannot be changed by subjective thoughts." !"

Regarding this, even Katia couldn't deny it, and could only let Agatha laugh at herself.

Until Agatha laughed enough and started to silence.

Katia continued: "But after the delicious food, life is lost. I don't like that feeling."

Agatha looked at Katia in surprise, as if she couldn't understand them as the messengers of death, but to be attached to the lives that should be harvested, this is really——

"......Are you serious?"

Looking at the persistence in Katia's unwavering eyes, that unshakable principle and determination.

Vaguely, Agatha seemed to recall something...but was quickly diluted by the memory of being a vampire, 'Dai' took on the indifference and suspicion like a bystander: "But you who have no power, what can you protect?"

"..."

Katia knew she was right.

Because of the principle of not sucking blood, the body strength has dropped to a limit, just like a person will become weak if he does not eat for a long time.

Although a vampire will not be 'starved to death' if she does not suck blood because of her special form of existence; but most of her original power has been buried, and the only thing that remains is this physical power that is far superior to ordinary people.

But this is so small and insignificant in the society of vampires.

Maybe this kind of her can protect others, prevent others from being threatened by humans, and won't die because of being sucked blood by herself.

So what if it's another vampire?
