Chapter 260: In the Camp

Even though they were still newborns, they were different. Their bodies are like a progenitor got reborn but without the knowledge.

'So, the master decided to do this, but I wonder Master, can they really achieve what you cannot, even with all those knowledge and resources?' Thalia thought in her mind, and then her lips curled into a smile.

In the end, as long as both Alex and MingYue can achieve it, it can be said in some way that her master, Alucard, is the one paving the way.

Time passed, and as Thalia expected, it only took barely an hour for both of them to open their eyes.

"Now that you can control your blood and have some idea about it, the next step is triggering the cells to create the veins you need to make it pour out from your body. But before that, try to make a small wound and then control the blood."

Alex and MingYue nodded. They created a small incision on their fingertips and then started manipulating the blood.

The experience was very different from what Alex imagined. He thought it would work as he willed it, but in reality, it was more like controlling a horse.

He needed to give direction and try to control the flow as the blood kept flowing in his body despite what he did.

He must make sure not too much blood was out without disturbing the circulation while using life force to generate more blood than they needed.

It was like trying to write with both the left and right hands at the same time.

The blood that came out from Alex at first moved like a worm; it then started trying to transform, trying to take some form, but the process was quite slow, as it could be seen with the naked eye.

The same happened with MingYue. It took Alex half an hour before he finally got it right, while it took MingYue almost an hour.

Seeing the fast progress, Thalia became more spirited and began teaching both of them the next step.

Meanwhile, back at the survivor encampment, Elvira finally woke up. Her head felt freshened up like she had just woken up from a deep sleep.

Looking through the gap in the camp, she started seeing some familiar faces. Even though she wasn't close to them, she often saw them walking in the street.

Her memory is quite good, allowing her to memorize something after a few glances.

She then stood up and started walking out of the camp. Looking around, she was quickly greeted with the same sight Alex had seen.

Her head throbbed as she started walking around, gaining gazes from many people in the area. Everyone recognized her as the princess of Duskmire.

Her eyes darted around carefully, looking at each wounded person, hoping to see her father and brother.

Swosh!

A rock flew suddenly as Elvira dodged her head. Looking back, she saw a group of people with angry looks on their faces.

"You…YOU are the princess of our country! Where were you when that monster attacked?"

"Yes, we all pay taxes, so you can protect us! Aren't you a sorceress?"

"We all are your people! Isn't it your responsibility to protect us?"

Elvira was silent upon hearing all their complaints. Normally, this would not happen as the punishment could easily be death, but now, as these people have lost everything, they don't care at all.

Her eyes looked at the people's appearances; each of them had many wounds all over their bodies. Blood was still flowing from their wounds as they still had not been taken care of.

Despite their appearances, their wounds were superficial compared to others. So, they were at the very back of the priority.

Elvira then took out a green crystal from her pocket, making the people who complained take a step back. But it only lasted for a moment before they continued throwing insults.

The green gem started to shine, creating a warm light that enveloped all of them.

Petricia saw all of this happening from the other camp, as she was still busy taking care of the patients.

She didn't plan to interfere since, by right, these people were all her responsibility. The only reason she still stayed here was because of Alex's order.

Vexgore has already been taken by Alex back to the awe cube as he could heal faster inside that place.

The people who complained expected she would kill them all, but to their surprise, the spell cast healed all their wounds.

"I will be straight; what you did is condemnable by death, but I will forgive you this one time.

What happened now is outside everyone's capability. If you want to blame, that is your choice, but you are right; I should have prepared better countermeasures in case something like this happened," Elvira said with cold eyes while exuding pressure that made the people turn silent.

In Elvira's land, despite the different classes, the grassroots still earned enough money to eat and pay rent. The tax was also not that heavy, allowing them to have a comfortable life.

This made the crime rate low, requiring only a few knights and soldiers to patrol the area. And the base was all concentrated around the castle. seaʀᴄh thё NovelFire.net* website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

This resulted in complete annihilation when the incident happened.

Thankfully, this also meant no one saw that her mother, Luciel, was the one who did all of this. Otherwise, she knew she would face even more problems than this one.

Elvira continued walking through the area as she cast the same spell a few more times. In the end, she stopped near Petricia. "Where are my father and brother?"

"I don't hide them, so I don't know. You see the last explosion? Anyone dead there won't even have their body remain."

Elvira clenched her fists, her eyes then turned misty.

"Don't people in power usually have some contingency? Your family should have one, too.

Why not check the escape place you guys have prepared beforehand?"
