Chapter 39

(Congratulations to '丶纏綿' for becoming the patron of this book!)

Xiaoming had no idea how easily his words could be misunderstood by those who were unaware.

No, even those who knew that Xiaoming needed to survive by drinking blood would likely be unable to understand, and would come to realize that humans and Kabane are indeed not the same kind of beings.

In such a situation, people would subconsciously feel fear towards Xiaoming and Seikoma.

Therefore, for Xiaoming and Seikoma to gain others' trust would be an extremely difficult task.

Similarly, Seikoma, who had yet to fully accept the fact that her existence had changed, could not understand Xiaoming's act of drinking blood.

Thus, Seikoma's expression towards Xiaoming was very stern.

On the contrary, Xiaoming seemed completely unable to understand Seikoma's thoughts and said matter-of-factly, "It's best if you drink a little too, otherwise, you won't be able to hold on for long."

Upon hearing this, Seikoma almost without thinking, directly replied, "I will absolutely not drink blood!"

"Is that so?" Xiaoming glanced at Seikoma, somewhat absentmindedly, and said, "However, if Kabane do not drink blood within a certain time, they will not only lose their strength but will gradually turn into Kabane."

"What... what?!" Seikoma was instantly greatly shocked.

Seeing Seikoma's dazed expression, Fangli sighed and said, "Seikoma, you'd better quickly abandon some of your naive thoughts and face reality."

Saying this, Fangli stared intently at Seikoma and said word by word, "After all, you are no longer human."

Seikoma's expression changed drastically.

Finally, Seikoma lowered her head in a dejected manner, unable to say another word.

A heavy atmosphere spread around.

Xiaoming, however, seemed to feel nothing and continued to lick Fangli's blood-soaked fingers, looking like a cute girl licking sweet honey.

Unfortunately, what Xiaoming was licking was not honey but blood, which added a sense of evil and bloodiness to the girl's cuteness.

Fangli also let the heavy atmosphere spread in the air, looking at the silent Seikoma without speaking, and took out a medicine bottle, a water bottle, and a pack of biscuits from the leg bag.

Then, Fangli poured some of the remaining half of the medicine liquid from the bottle onto the wound on his arm.

"Hisss..."

A sound like skin being seared by a hot iron block rang out.

It was the sound of the wound on Fangli's arm smoking.

Pouring out half of the remaining half of the wound healing medicine, the wound on Fangli's arm absorbed the medicine, emitting steam-like smoke and rapidly healing at a visible speed.

Before long, the wound on Fangli's arm completely disappeared.

Xiaoming was stunned by this scene.

Seikoma was also stunned by this scene.

Ignoring the shocked companions, Fangli put the remaining quarter of the wound healing medicine back into the leg bag, opened the water bottle, and tore open the energy-compressed biscuit, eating the biscuit while drinking water.

Like Xiaoming, Fangli had not eaten since last night.

After such intense fighting and killing, Fangli had rested enough, but his stomach was extremely hungry.

Now, with Senkan Station fallen, the food and water on the Koutetsujou were definitely limited. Feeding a large number of people would not be an easy task.

It was easy to imagine that with such a shortage of food and water, people would not be willing to provide them to Fangli and his group.

Fortunately, Fangli had exchanged food and water as a precaution before starting the journey in the game world.

The water bottle could hold ten liters of water, enough for Fangli to use for some time.

There were ten energy-compressed biscuits, each providing a day's worth of nutrition to the user, allowing Fangli to not worry about food for ten days.

Moreover, since Xiaoming and Seikoma were not human and did not need human food, Fangli did not have to beg others for food and water.

After finishing a biscuit and drinking some water, Fangli's stomach finally warmed up, and his body gradually regained strength. He then put the biscuit and water bottle back into the leg bag and looked at Xiaoming and Seikoma again.

At this glance, Fangli saw two Kabane with dazed expressions.

"Uh..." Fangli said somewhat speechlessly, "What kind of expression is that?"

Xiaoming and Seikoma exchanged a glance, and then one looked at Fangli with curiosity, while the other looked at Fangli as if seeing a more incredible monster than themselves.

"...You scared me," Xiaoming said directly. "I've never seen a human with a recovery ability stronger than a Kabane."

Kabane, apart from having physical abilities comparable to Kabane, have almost no difference from Kabane in other aspects.

For example, they need to survive by drinking blood.

For example, their hearts glow and are a weakness, but are protected by a steel-like membrane.

And another example is their powerful recovery ability.

For a human, a wound like the one Fangli had would take several days to fully heal, but a Kabane would recover completely in just a few minutes.

However, Fangli had instantly healed such a wound.

"Was it because of that medicine bottle?" Seikoma said, somewhat stunned, "What is that? I've never heard of it."

"Hey," Xiaoming said directly to Fangli, "Let me see..."

Before she could finish her sentence, Xiaoming's expression suddenly changed.

Seeing this, Seikoma frowned and asked, "What's wrong?"

Xiaoming ignored Seikoma and, as if confirming something, her expression became serious.

"Hey! What's wrong with you?" Seikoma raised her voice. "You're not thinking of drinking blood again, are you?"

"Kabane!" Xiaoming interrupted Seikoma, muttering to herself, "There's a Kabane's presence ahead!"

As soon as she said this, Xiaoming rushed to the door leading to the front carriage, reached out, and tried to open it.

However, at this moment, a hand suddenly pressed down on Xiaoming's shoulder.

Xiaoming was slightly stunned, turned her head, and looked at her side.

There, Fangli firmly pressed Xiaoming's shoulder, looked at Xiaoming's face, and said,

"You can't go out."
