Chapter 16 The Greedy Guy

Xie Sheng returned to his room with the suitcase.

There is a glass bottle filled with cold water and two cups on the desk.

He first poured himself a glass of water and played with his fingers on the suitcase.

Xie Sheng took a deep breath, took out a bottle and stuffed it into his arms, then picked up another bottle from the box.

He opened the cork of the bottle, raised his face, poured the entire bottle of red pills into his mouth, picked up the water glass, and drank it all in one gulp.

The strong smell of blood instantly filled his mouth, and Xie Sheng began to feel his strength returning.

Five minutes passed, then ten minutes passed, and the strength rose to a certain stage and then stagnated.

Xie Sheng felt that something was wrong. He stretched out his hand to hold a leg of the desk and tightened it with all his strength.

Imagine that the square table legs would be squeezed into a cylindrical shape by its own powerful force, or worse!

After two minutes, he let go.

Well, what the table legs looked like before and what they look like now is just a few more inconspicuous finger prints.

The strength has been restored to about one-tenth of the freedom.

He opened another glass bottle and swallowed all the pills again.

This time, my body didn't feel any increase in strength at all.

Xie Sheng did not believe in evil and once again clenched the legs of the table. There was no essential difference from the last time.

It seems that the power can only be restored to this extent, probably subject to some kind of limitation.

Xie Sheng closed the suitcase helplessly.

He knew very well that if he didn't find the right way to solve the problem, if he took a whole box of pills by himself, his own strength would not increase at all.

Xie Sheng stretched out his fingers and played a melody on the box again.

Open the box and take out a gargoyle.

After taking a look at it twice, I realized that this thing is powerful enough in combat, but its appearance is too eye-catching.

There are a lot of sharpshooters among those servants. Even in this age of flintlock muskets, these things can't withstand a few shots.

He put the gargoyle back and took out an oriole.

Orioles and gargoyles are no different in texture, but focus more on agility and speed.

Put a finger between your teeth, bite your finger, and a drop of bright red blood will fall on the head of the oriole.

"I don't know if my abilities include this one but not the one of driving blood beasts. If that's the case, it would be very bad."

Very good, the blood was like dripping on a sponge, and soon it completely penetrated into the little head of the oriole.

However, the blood had entered, and the oriole did not move at all.

"Move your paws, move your cute little paws"

Xie Sheng used all his mental power to try to get this guy to move.

But he made himself dizzy and failed to get the oriole to move even a little bit.

He dejectedly stopped trying and looked at the little thing in front of him in frustration.

"Could it be that because my own strength has weakened, the power contained in my blood has also been weakened?"

A second drop of blood fell on the gargoyle, followed by another.

At this moment, he was like a gambler who lost his eyes, watching the drops drip from his fingers.

If anyone saw him looking like this, they would definitely think that he was committing suicide by slitting his wrists.

It wasn't until the tenth drop of blood that Xie Sheng sensed the existence of the oriole's consciousness.

Twenty drops of blood fell, and when he had decided to stop trying, things finally turned around.

The oriole twisted its head, vibrated its wings twice, and then took small steps with its two little paws, wandering around the desk.

Losing twenty drops of blood in a short period of time was a huge drain on Xie Sheng.

His face was pale and his feet were shaking: "How can this little guy become so greedy!"

"Who are you calling greedy?"

Following the voice, the door was pushed open from the outside, and Xiaodie walked in.

Xie Sheng first tightened his fingers into his sleeves and then turned around to prevent her from seeing the wounds on his fingertips.

Seeing his appearance, Xiaodie closed the door, strode over, stretched out her hand to support one of his shoulders.

"Why do you look so scary? Are you sick? Do you want me to find someone to call Dr. Edward over?"

"It's okay. This box is too heavy. I'll just take a rest."

"As long as it's okay, if something happens, don't hold on to yourself."

"Don't you know how my health is?" Xie Sheng put an arm around her waist.

"I hate it." Xiaodie put her hand on his chest and punched him lightly.

Xie Sheng reached out and grabbed her warm little hand: "Among those seven dwarfs, did you find the one you like?"

"What are the Seven Dwarfs?" Xiaodie looked at Xie Sheng in confusion.

"It's the ones who came today."

"Well, I understand. You, who are always gentle and gentle, why are you so mean today!

"Being gentle depends on the situation. If they are pursuing you, I will be even meaner in the future."

"Demeanor, you have to pay more attention to your demeanor, otherwise I will become disgusted with you."

"Do you really hate me?"

When Xiaodie entered the room, she had already seen the oriole standing on the table preening its feathers.

It was only because he was more concerned about Xie Sheng's pale face that he ignored the little bird. At this time, he took the opportunity to change the topic:

"Where did this little thing come from?"

Xie Sheng looked at the oriole: "It flew in through my window. Do you think it's strange? It's not afraid of me at all."

"It's so cute, can you give it to me?"

Xie Sheng stretched out his unblooded palm, and an oriole jumped onto his palm.

He stretched out his palm in front of Xiaodie: "I gave it to you, be nice to it."

"It's so cute." Xiaodie reached out and gently picked up the oriole.

This little guy is in the two sisters' tower, as if he has a camera installed inside.

The picture was so beautiful that he couldn't even imagine it.

"Well, what are you thinking about, are they those three beautiful ladies?"

"I've never seen their faces before!"

"Want to take a look? I'll take you there."

"Stop talking nonsense, lest you regret it later. What are you doing in my room? Where are you admirers?"

"The servants sent them back to their rooms to rest. I want to go back and take a nap. We are going to Wayne Beach this afternoon. Will you go?"

Xie Sheng and the others are more like people employed by the castle than guests. They all live in the guest rooms on the west side of the stairs on the third floor.

The real guests live in the luxurious rooms east of the stairs on the third floor.

Wayne Point is located to the north of the castle, and a large hilly area from the castle to Wayne Beach is owned by Baron Huntington.

The hills are lush with vegetation, mainly grassland and shrubs, but also some tall trees and groves.

There lived a large number of prey such as hares, foxes, and wild boars that the nobles loved to see.

It seems that a pack of wild wolves has appeared in the Wayne Point area recently.

Even aside from the game, Cape Wayne has some very beautiful beaches.

The Baron even had a boat parked there, allowing for fishing excursions offshore.
