Chapter 110 - The Institute (51)

Tang Shun slowly narrowed his eyes as he stared at the still smoking gun in his hand, he looked up at the barely restrained parasite hosts struggling and screeching under the other's concentrated efforts, then he looked back at Chao Bin, gaze slowly roaming his face until he stopped at the thin, perpendicular slit across his cheek. The cut still leaking faint, crimson blood that gradually trailed from his soft face to hide deep inside his collar. 

The soft, sweet tang of blood was almost overpowered by Chao Bin's milk candy spent, 

Gradually, unnatural slit eyes grew darker, the deeply suppressed urges in his heart erupted like dry thatch wood being thrown into a blazing fire. His entire body felt hot and the eyes he used to look at Chao Bin slowly took on an animalistic haze.

He glanced down at the full magazine gun once more, slowly twisting the dark handle over slender pale fingers, before cocking it.

He glanced briefly at the players, noting that Mu Fang was always deliberately keeping a distance from the rest of the players, and looked back at Chao Bin.

With a meaningful lilt slowly appearing at the corner of his lips, he softly traced the gun's cold and smooth lines, then beckoned faintly to the apprehensive youth standing in front of him.

Tang Shun still carried a gentle smile on his face but intuitively Chao Bin felt something had changed, he hesitated, fluttering nervousness suddenly sinking into his heart. Against the backdrop of blood, chaos and darkness, Tang Shun suddenly felt dangerous.

He immediately noticed that Chao Bin was hesitating and beckoned again but this time, Chao Bin had a feeling that this was no longer a choice.

His body acted before his brain could process anything, almost as if it was in his instincts to obey. When he drew close, the satisfied smile that rose on Tang Shun's face made the heat pooling in his stomach even hotter, his throat was dry and he could feel that his head was spinning in hazy whirls. 

Was he hungry?

Chao Bin felt very inexplicable, but by then Tang Shun in front of him had already wrapped an arm around his waist and dragged him towards him powerfully, his defenses instantly weakened, his brath catching in his throat as the charcoal scent unique to him mixed with the freshly spilled blood made his head feel woozy.

"I–I–."

"Are you hungry? I don't seem to have fed you today–"

Tang Shun's masked tone sounded with a smile, his deep voice, pleasant tone, all made it so that no one would be tell what he was feelings otherwise, but Chao Bin had an uncanny feeling that the man was looking at him with a sort evil pleasure.

Tang Shun's hand tightened around the soft waist ,

"I just seemed to have forgotten something." His gentle voice sent shivers down Chao Bin's spine and he found himself clutching tightly onto Tang Shun's hands to keep balance. The screaming and noise around him was subconsciously blocked out by his addled mind.

"What..cough– what did you forget."

Tang Shun paused and lazily pulled out a single leather black glove and under Chao Bin's instinctively roaming eyes, he slowly passed them over the long fingers of his right hand.

Almost instantly, Chao Bin felt the tension and darkness radiating around them get thicker and deeper, as if it was trying to completely invade him from the inside-out and mark him with its scent.

Completely bewildered, he was hugged by Tang Shun, the hand with the gun resting faintly above his tailbone. The residual warmth contrasted sharply against Tang Shun's cold skin and left him trembling uncontrollably. The other party was a head taller than him, and when he wrapped his arms around him, he was completely encircled in his arms, and from behind him he felt Tang Shun faintly brush against his spine with a finger, gently tracing his back with those black-gloved hands.

It was normal at first.

Then suddenly everything just felt wrong.

His face was red, his knees were weak and Chao Bin felt as if his heart was going to jump out of his chest at the speed it was beating in his cage.

Suddenly Chao Bin jumped, hands flailing in absolute panic, his flustered mind was blank, did he just....

"Ah, did it scare you?"

Tang Shun's voice came from above his head, hands naturally moving away from where it had cupped his ass and back to his taut waist.

"I'm so sorry, I just wondered what it would feel like from the first time I saw you."

Chao Bin's short brown hair was messy due to the heat, and sweat stuck to his forehead. His complexion was slightly darker than that of Tang Shun's and his bones were three-dimensional, therefore his ass was also exceptional, and if it wasn't for the pressing matters at hand, he would have wanted to take another feel.

The most unique is the pair of eyes, the color of the pupil is between honey and amber, a transparent and subtle hazel. 

Raising the corner of his mouth, Tang Shun glanced at Chao Bins body that was still stretched tightly, the slanted eyes that shone coldly along the profile of his face slowly turned upwards, like laughing silently.

"Chinese people respect etiquette, you took my blood..."

"Shouldn't you give me a something in exchange?"

Chao Bin was speechless.

Their excessive closeness didn't give him space to think, but just as he was about to remove his hand, his wrist was suddenly caught.

A great force pulled him down and, unable to resist, Chao Bin lost his balance in an instant, unsteadily falling onto Tang Shuns chest. His head rubbed against Tang Shun's shoulder and his lips smashed into the thick muscles hidden there.

Tang Shun's voice was low and magnetic as his lips pressed against Chao Bin's ear to ask, "Do you really want to go. Aren't you hungry? No one is paying attention, you can eat now."

The warm breath brushed against his sensitive skin, making it numb and itchy and Chao Bin shivered instinctively.

Without waiting for his answer, Tang Shun half-closed his eyelids and his dark pupils gazed at Chao Bin,

"Bite Down." His voice was low and hoarse,

For some reason, Chao Bin felt ashamed, as if what they were doing wasn't just a simple act of exchanging yang, but a primitive familar to all men.

"No– I don't want to eat."

Tang Shun raised his brow and acting as if he had deliberately misunderstood, he lifted his right hand and gent placed a slightly cool fingertip against Chao Bin's lips. He felt the warm moist here there and in turn, he subconsciously rubbed them against his lips.

Quite suitable...

Chao Bin held his breath.

"Hm?"

Tang Shun's hum was hoarse, seemingly impatient and urging him to do it faster, 

When Chao Bin came to his senses, he had subconsciously opened his lips, and bit Tang Shun's fingertip, sucking the sweet blood beads that appeared greedily.

He immediately spat out the wet fingertips watching them glisten with his own saliva, his head became hot.

Unfortunately, Tang Shun appeared to be deliberate, he didn't leave his lips after they were removed and his lips were rubbed teasingly until they were a little swollen and red, and only then did the other man take them away, deliberately pulling a wet saliva string along with its departure.

With a small chuckle, Tang Shun suddenly threw something into his hands and when he looked down he could tell that it was a black, metal encased lighter with golden lines traced along it edge.

The ambiguous and sultry atmosphere was made Chao Bin feel as if he was submerged in a pot of honey, sticky, soft and inescapable.

Tang Shun wrapped one hand around his and slowly flicked the metal casing open, a small silver nuzzle glaring back at him. Tang Shun's lips curled and his cold fingers sent electric shocks along the soft fingers that clenched shyly around the lighter straight to his heart.

Chao Bin's breath stuttered, his voice came out choked and low,

"What's this for?

Tang Shuns mouth raised into an invisible sneer, surging with an excited undercurrent, "Just hold it. When it's say it's time, light the lighter and throw it."

Chao Bin was even more confused by the rhetoric but Tang Shun only grinned and didn't elaborate any further, hands slowly left his and finally their mind was brought back to the most pressing issue.

The sound of shouting and screams finally bled back into the isolated space and when Tang Shun turned his head he could see that Chu Yi's fight seemed to be on the cusp of defeat, but he didn't even entertain the thought of going to help. 

For Chu Yi, he'd probably be more inclined to kill 'him' if he did, he observed the nature of the parasitic players, the larvae itself couldn't be killed, they would just burst and reproduce another fleshy larvae.

The best bet was to kill the host body and kill it while its in a state of transition from human to larvae.

Tang Shun noted its healing speed, about 3 seconds.

In other words, he only have 3 seconds to kill every larvae!

That was enough.

After making this decision, he lifted his gun steadily, a sudden malicious sneer appearing on his lips and pointed it to the first parasite host and pulled the trigger with a bang! The bullets trajectory was so fast, they couldn't make it out, they could only see the bulging abdomen of the host body burst into putrid flesh, 

The fleshy pink larvae instantly screamed, and the sound seemed to shatter the ceiling!

Bang–

The scream was unexpectedly cut off!

Unexpectedly there's another shot that sounded almost immediately after the first one, The moment the bullet left the canister, it split into two, the first bullet was nudged from behind by the second bullet and spun with a centrifugal force that drilled into the host body and completely destroyed the flesh, the second bullet followed the second bullet and lodged into the meaty matter of the flesh larvae and exploding it from within!

He didn't even look back, hazy smoke billowing from the gun in his hands, he lifted his arm again and with no psychological burden from killing former humans, he pulled the trigger!

Bang–

From behind him, there was a brief silence, then suddenly from inside the remaining body came another loud explosions!

These bullets had exploded into sharp tiny metal shrapnel's that tore the remaining flesh into nothing but a shower of flesh and blood mist!

Tang Shun felt the blood splatter against his face, the eyes that were completely revealed in the darkness burst with suppressed bloodthirst, the gun rose and fell in a never ending stream of bullets and blood!

The darkness between his brows were completely exposed, the smell of gunpowder and blood only excited him further, this was true freedom! 

And suddenly with a joyful laughter, he pointed the gun towards the strange metal canisters built on the walls of the room and with a crazed laugh, he suddenly shouted to Chao Bin as he pulled the trigger, 

"Light it up baby–!"

"Bang—"

Chao Bin's mind blanked, hands unconsciously flicking the lighters tail, "Shink–"

Boom!!––
