Chapter 9 Dragon of Disaster
Ke Mingye took a bite of instant bread and flipped through a few pages of the live broadcast room of Gray Pigeon Station. He found that Ke Youqing had really cleared out all the voyeurs.

No one survived.

"It is estimated that all the passers-by who were watching the live broadcast on the hundreds of illegal websites have turned black, and the number of black fans has increased significantly overnight."

"This is our Chinese superhero. First, he appears like a ghost in a horror movie and scares people. Then, he leaves the criminals alone and unplugs the Internet for the majority of netizens."

"Why not just stop calling yourself 'Green Crow' and change your name to 'Terrible Crow Man'?"

"Haha, do you have such dark heroes in other countries? Do you know what a dark hero is? Forget about others. Even your son has thought of complaining to the Super Hero Association about you."

While muttering in a sarcastic tone, Ke Mingye operated his mobile phone and logged out of "Grey Pigeon Network".

Just as he put down his phone, a system panel suddenly popped up in front of him.

[System Announcement 1: So far, all the surviving players have passed the three-day adaptability test - the purpose of this test is to help all players understand and adapt to the current situation of this parallel world. (Warning again: Do not reveal your identity to the superhumans around you before you have enough power.)]

[System Announcement 2: Tomorrow morning, we will officially open the "Daily Tasks", "Global Dungeons", "Player Communications", "System Mall" and other functions...]

"Great! I can finally discuss my experiences over the past three days with the other ninety or so unlucky people who were chosen. It would be best if their start was as hell as mine—surrounded by a bunch of superhumans with devilish dad data. Otherwise, I will really commit suicide..."

Thinking of this, Ke Mingye selected [Confirm receipt of announcement] at the bottom of the panel, got out of bed, put on his slippers and walked out of the room.

Just as I walked to the corridor on the second floor, Bowenna's voice came from the first floor: "Mingye, ask Ziling to come downstairs to get the cut fruit!"

"coming."

Ke Mingye responded casually and walked to Bai Ziling's room.

The door was closed, so he knocked gently and said unhappily, "Mom is calling you to come downstairs to eat fruit."

After he finished speaking, there was no response from the door. He knocked on the door again, but still no response.

"Going to bed so early?"

He raised his eyebrows and turned the doorknob. It clicked and locked. He looked down at his phone again. It was only seven o'clock.

"She's not in there..."

Ke Mingye felt something strange. Bai Ziling's room was eerily quiet, yet it was tightly locked.

But when he thought of his second sister Bai Ziling as a vampire, he felt relieved. Ke Mingye thought that she might have slipped out of the window and ran to the hospital to steal blood bags, or she might have used a more direct method... attacking passers-by to replenish her blood.

"So what does it have to do with me?"

He stretched, and walked downstairs under the light of the orange cucumber lantern left over from last Christmas. Just as he was about to go downstairs, he heard the sound of a door opening.

Soon after, Bowenna's surprised voice came from downstairs: "Hey, isn't this Xiaomo? Why are you back so early?"

Ke Mingye was stunned and stopped at the stairs.

My second brother is back, at this time? Why is it so sudden? He told me on the phone this morning that he might be back in two days...

Thinking of this, his pupils shrank and an inexplicable sense of uneasiness arose in his heart.

Half an hour ago, in Huanjing City, Laojingmai Street District.

In a remote and sparsely populated alley, a white-haired girl slowly raised her head from the neck of a corpse, the moonlight illuminating the corners of her bloody mouth and her hair dyed silver.

Her eyes were calm, without a trace of emotion.

Bai Ziling wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with the back of his hand and lowered his eyes away from the corpse.

"I'm full..." she murmured softly.

At this moment, a hoarse but majestic voice suddenly came from the shadows deep in the alley, like the ringing of a bronze bell, but with a hint of childishness.

"Are you eating people?"

the voice asked.

Bai Ziling was obviously stunned for a moment, then slowly turned his head and raised his eyes from the silver-white hair on his forehead.

With the vampire's perception, it was the first time she encountered someone approaching her quietly. But she soon discovered... the person hiding in the shadows was not a human.

But...

A dragon.

This dragon was about two meters long, with lava-like colors flowing in its upright eyes. The dark scales on its body overlapped like metal, giving it a sense of layering. At this moment, he was sitting on the ground, his tail drooping like a broom, dragging a long shadow.

You know what, it's quite cute, and looks like a dragon cub.

Bai Ziling stared at it for a while, and his expression softened.

She herself is a vampire, so there are magical girls and superheroes in the world. So what's so strange about having a dragon?
Thinking of this, she shook her head: "No, I never eat people."

"So what are you doing?" the young dragon asked from the shadows.

"Sucking blood." Bai Ziling replied.

The young dragon tentatively moved a paw forward, inching a little out of the shadows, and spoke cautiously.

"Wouldn't it be more convenient to eat him?"

Slowly, its face was exposed under the cold moonlight, with the unique ferocity of dragons superimposed on a kind of childishness. Sometimes it looked like a child, and sometimes like a natural executioner.

After looking at it for a while, Bai Ziling asked softly, "Do you really want to eat it?"

"Well, can you give him to me?" said the young dragon, swallowing his saliva.

"Anyway, he is a death row inmate..." Bai Ziling lowered her eyes. This man was a superhuman criminal she had seen on TV, so she chose him.

She was silent for a while: "But you have to eat cleanly, otherwise you will leave clues for me."

"Don't worry, neither you nor I want to be caught by humans..."

As the young dragon said this, he crawled over, picked up the corpse with his claws, and slowly dragged it into the corner.

Bai Ziling blinked his blood-red eyes, sat on the ground with his knees hugged, stared at it for a while, still very curious, why was there a dragon here?

But she was afraid that her mother would check on her and find her not in the bedroom, so she just patted her butt and got up, climbing up the ladder hanging from the wall and stepping onto the iron plate where the air conditioner case was hanging.

Then he jumped lightly and landed on the roof of the residential building.

When he reached the roof, Bai Ziling turned around again and glanced down at the young dragon lying in the shadow.

It seemed as if the dragon didn't want her to see it eating, so it just squatted on the ground like a cat, raised its head, and waited quietly for her to leave.

One man and one dragon, two pairs of red eyes stared at each other in the dark night for a while.

She spoke softly in the moonlight.

"Dragons are like vampires. Everyone hates us."

The young dragon was stunned for a moment.

After saying that, Bai Ziling slowly turned around, put his hands behind his back, and walked along the edge of the roof as if he was walking on a zebra crossing on the road.

Gradually, her figure disappeared into the night. The young dragon tilted its head back and stared at the empty night sky for a long time, then put its claws on the corpse and began to eat silently.

After a long time, a thick pool of blood flowed out from the shadows, and the body was no longer there.

It hissed deeply, flapped its short, immature wings, flew into the night sky, and hid on the rooftop of an apartment building.

Leaning against a corner of the rooftop, the young dragon's body slowly changed into the shape of a human boy.

Ke Yongzhu hugged his naked body and curled up in a corner of the rooftop. He was stunned for a while and murmured, "Yes, sister, we are all monsters."

It wasn't the first time he saw Bai Zi Ling sucking blood, but... this was the first time he had the courage to transform into a dragon and speak to her.

In the past, he would always hide his presence, secretly follow her, and hide quietly in a corner.

At this time, he would always think, it turns out that I am not the only freak in the family, my sister is too.

"Forget it, she's gone home, so I should go home too."

Ke Yongzhu sighed, picked up the clothes he had taken off before transforming into a dragon from the corner of the rooftop, put them on, and then paced across the rooftops.

Smelling the scent of Bai Ziling, he walked towards home.

Soon after he left, the color of the shadows on the ground in the alley gradually became darker, and then a figure floated up from the shadows.

He was a young man with a delicate appearance, almost like a woman. He stared at the pool of blood on the ground with an expressionless face.

After a long time, the young man muttered to himself.

"Sure enough, the descendants of the Disaster Dragon have appeared..."

He pulled out an emerald green bird carrying a scroll and an ink pen from his sleeve. He opened the scroll on the bird's back and wrote on it with the ink pen:

"Reporting to the Ninja Clan, we have confirmed that the descendant of the Dragon of Disaster is in Huanjing. Judging from the remaining traces, it is still in its juvenile form. It is not too late to find it now. Requesting reinforcements."

After doing all this, the young man closed the scroll, tied it to the bird's back, and released it from his palm. It flapped its wings and soon disappeared into the moonlight carrying the scroll.

The young man's figure once again turned into a ball of ink and sank into the shadow under his feet.

Not long after, the young man emerged from a pool of shadows again and appeared in front of a residential building, with no one around him.

He looked up at the plaque on the residential building, "1, Building 5, Phase 1201, Unit , Laojingmai Street", then walked to the stairs, entered the elevator, and chose the ninth floor.

The elevator door slowly closed, and just before it was about to close, a tender hand reached in and sandwiched between the elevator doors...

Looking at this bizarre scene, the young man was stunned at first, then he concentrated slightly.

Cold sweat dripped down his forehead. He thought, from such a distance, could it be that the Disaster Dragon had also detected his presence? No, it was too early to draw a conclusion.

As the hand was stuck in the middle of the elevator door, it slowly opened to both sides.

Under the flickering light at the entrance of the corridor, a boy in a black hoodie was standing at the entrance.

He withdrew his hand that was blocking the elevator door and looked expressionlessly at the young man standing in the elevator with a nervous look on his face.

The two looked at each other and one of them made a sound.

"Second brother?"

Ke Yongzhu looked at his face, slightly startled, and spoke first. He thought that when he came back from eating someone, he could just happen to run into his second brother who was coming back from outside.

Ke Xiaomo was also slightly stunned.

Then, looking at this familiar, friendly face, he breathed a sigh of relief. He thought to himself that he was really too neurotic. Just now, he was so far away in the alley, and he had tried his best to hide. How could the dragon of disaster, who was concentrating on eating, discover his presence?
How stupid...

Ke Xiaomo chuckled, as if he was laughing at himself.

"Long time no see, bro." he said.

Ke Yongzhu put his hands in his pockets and walked into the elevator. He turned his head to look at him and asked curiously, "Uh, why didn't you tell me you were coming back? Didn't Mingye say you were still in college and would be back in two days?"

"I came back early because of something." Ke Xiaomo replied.

Accompanied by the indifferent voice, the elevator door closed smoothly this time. With a slight humming sound, the elevator slowly moved upwards.

Ke Xiaomo reached out and ruffled his hair, then asked, "You seem to be in the sixth grade now. How are you doing in school recently? You shouldn't be bullying your classmates anymore, right?"

"Hey, whether or not I bully my classmates is another matter, but please stop touching my head, or it won't grow taller."

Ke Yongzhu shook his hand away in disgust and said.

Ke Xiaomo just smiled and said nothing.

Soon, the elevator door slowly opened. He glanced at the elevator sign and saw that it was the ninth floor, so he and Ke Yongzhu stepped out of the elevator and pressed the doorbell next to the door.

The door slowly opened, and her mother's face came into view under the light. She quickly showed her surprise.

Bowenna looked at him: "Hey, isn't this Xiaomo? Why are you back so early?"

Ke Xiaomo scratched the bridge of his nose and explained, "My friends here had an appointment with me, so I came back from the university two days early. And when I came back, I happened to run into you."

Hearing this, Bowenna crossed her arms and glared at Ke Yongzhu: "This brat said he was going to the supermarket downstairs to buy Coke, but he ended up taking so long."

"Can't we take a walk after buying the drinks?"

Ke Yongzhu lowered his head and said this, wiping the corners of his mouth guiltily. He thought that since he used the power of the Dragon of Disaster to eliminate the smell of blood, it shouldn't be smelled, right?

By the way, how did the third sister get rid of the bloody smell? She would come out to suck blood every once in a while, and no one noticed. He thought again.

"Mom, don't be too strict with them, it's just a walk."

Ke Xiaomo smiled gently, and walked into the house with his arm around Ke Yongzhu, who looked unhappy.

He stopped in the familiar living room and suddenly noticed a hidden and strange gaze, so he raised his head abruptly and looked along the stairs towards the entrance to the second floor.

I saw a young man standing by the handrail of the stairs on the second floor, with his head lowered, playing with his mobile phone with an expressionless face.

Ke Xiaomo raised his head and a name came out of his mouth.

"Ming...ye?"

As he was reciting his brother's name, he felt something strange. Just now, he clearly noticed that someone was looking at him, and staring at him for two seconds.

There is no doubt that with a ninja's intuition, he could feel that it was a hostile gaze directed at a stranger.

But when he looked up, he only saw Ke Mingye playing with his mobile phone, as if he didn't notice him.

At this moment, hearing the voice, Ke Mingye was stunned at first, then he looked up from his mobile phone and looked at Ke Xiaomo downstairs with a surprised expression.

He raised his eyebrows and said, "Brother, when did you come back? Didn't you say you would be back in two days? Are you playing tricks on me on your phone?"

Ke Xiaomo raised his head and stared at Ke Mingye expressionlessly, meeting his gaze.

At the same time, a thought came to his mind that his younger brother... seemed a little strange.
