She quietly released a thread of spiritual power and finally "saw" the true form of the so-called "broken crystal." It looked like a miniature mechanical insect resembling a spider, with eight long mechanical legs and a round, bulbous crystal on its back.
These crystals, originally supposed to be transparent, were now soaked in blood, showing a strange crimson color.
Shen Tang’s heart was startled, as if she had glimpsed some unspeakable secret.
She instinctively blurted out, "Who hurt you like this?"
Danger flashed intensely in Necro’s eyes as he coldly said, "It doesn’t matter, those bastards are already killed by me."
Shen Tang pondered silently, could it be the enemies of the rebel army? After all, they had committed countless misdeeds and made numerous enemies.
For the Empire, are they friends or foes? If there’s a chance for cooperation...
But, they could also be stronger enemies.
She looked at Necro’s bloody and battered wounds, resisting the urge to stab him, patiently picking out the crystal shards, and then using her Healing Ability to treat the wounds.
The entire time, she kept her head down, focused on the treatment, not noticing the change in the man’s eyes.
He fixed his gaze intensely on her, his once pitch-black eyes giving off a cold, mysterious, dark red glow, with pupils shrinking to needlepoints, and his canine teeth growing sharper and longer.
This was a sign of the Blood Clan’s excitement or even infatuation.
Necro pressed his tongue against his teeth, suppressing the urge to drink blood.
Once she finished treating, he pulled her into his arms, lowering his head and pressing his thin lips to her ear, speaking in a deep voice, "You’re lying to me."
Her body went stiff, "Wha-what did I lie about?"
"You have Healing Ability."
"...So what?"
"Why did you hide it from me before?"
"You never asked me, so how is that lying?" Her face turned red with anger, retorting, "You’re my enemy, why should I tell you? Besides... don’t you know the saying, the outstanding ones will be toppled by the wind? If others know I have Healing Ability, what will I do if those with ulterior motives try to capture me?"
Those with ulterior motives, "..."
Necro let out a low chuckle, "You’re right, which is why you should stay by my side, only I can protect you."
"Clearly, you’re the most dangerous!" Shen Tang glared at him, thinking this in her heart and speaking it out loud.
The Blood Clan’s special physique made recovery extremely difficult after being injured, and a Beastman with Healing Ability happened to compensate for this drawback.
Necro must yearn intensely for a female with Healing Ability.
Unfortunately, Beastmen with Healing Ability were already rare, and females even rarer, almost impossible to find.
Shen Tang originally didn’t want to expose this, but one can’t catch a wolf without risking the child. The "love at first sight" spray could only raise the affinity level to "like," and it was clear this man’s guard was high; simple love was not enough for this rebel army leader to give his all and share his secrets.
Sometimes, showcasing more value can instead earn more favor and gain more valuable things.
Necro pinched her blushing cheek, his smile deepening, "Oh? Knowing I’m dangerous, yet daring to expose your superpower... are you truly unafraid of death, or do you trust me too much? Aren’t you afraid I’ll... imprison you?"
"Would you?" The female looked at him with fear, as if making a final bet but still shook her head firmly, "You said you liked me, you wouldn’t do that to me!"
Necro’s words faltered when he discovered her Healing Ability, he did have that thought.
But facing her pure and trusting, yet implicitly affectionate and expectant eyes, he just couldn’t harden his heart.
He caressed her smooth cheek, his gaze deepening.
