Iosefka had agreed to lend him another vial . She even answered some of his questions regarding blood healing . Apparently all beasts outside possess blood with healing capabilities . The blood though needs to be consumed right away or stored in special vials before it coagulates . Coagulated blood had no healing properties and old blood coagulates quickly after leaving the body . In short, Surgit had to collect blood from corpses before their blood goes bad . Iosefka had lent him an emergency kit containing some empty blood vials . He will be able to restore his injuries quite quickly but this will not cure any damage to his organs nor does it give him extra energy . So he'd need to rest from time to time to avoid exhaustion and he'd need to protect his vital organs .

AdvertisementHe came back to the town square . The sight of the burning beasts still horrified him . The pounding on the door had stopped and only fire could be heard in this desolate place . He inspected the corpses of the snipers and managed to retrieve some bullets . When he crossed the archway towards the fountain, he saw two silhouettes and his entire body tensed up . It was Damien and Paul . Those two had looked down on him and he wondered if would be able to slice them in half this time around . Damien's voice broke the silence: "Dear stranger, we mean you no harm . " They didn't recognize him . He was a stranger to them right now . After all, his physical appearance had changed after the ministration . His clothes were but tatters after the previous fight and he was painted red with blood . They would have never expected that from him . "We would like to suggest a partnership . This town hides all manner of beasts . An alliance will increase our chance of survival" continued Damien . Paul was sitting on top of the troll's corpse . They managed to kill him . They were also strong . Were they hunters? Surgit decided to keep his identity concealed and accept their request .

- "Sure, safety in numbers and all that; just don't get in my way . " He said, trying to sound confident .

- "Are you headed to the cathedral ward too? I'm Damien and this is Paul, we're both seeking the healing church . We've had to travel a long way to come here . "

- "Why don't we keep our personal stories to ourselves?" said Paul . He was definitely the shadier of the two .

- "I agree with the big guy" answered Surgit "I'd prefer it if we keep our focus on the beasts trying to kill us . "

Damien was definitely a talkative guy but looking at Paul's stern eyes, he decided to keep his mouth shut . Paul didn't trust Surgit but felt that he could use it to survive this terrifying place . From the square, the trio took the stairs up towards another street . Another patrol of three men-beasts with their dog were struck down before they even noticed what came at them . Surgit moved too fast for a human and Paul felt chills going down his spine as he watched the man fill some bottles with their blood . He threw two at them . 'These have miraculous healing powers . Use them when you're seriously injured . ' Paul looked at the bottle filled with blood and thought to himself 'Are we becoming blood thirsty beasts here?'
