A Way To Survive/Dai Dan
On the highway, a white car sped in the afternoon sun towards the city of Dawn. The driver was a middle-aged man wearing a navy blue jacket; on the back seat was a young man about eighteen years old wearing a black coat, shoulder backpack, and silver hair messed up by the wind from the car window. "Uri!" The man nervously looked at the eight-lane highway in front of him. "Someone wants to arrest you; they even want to kill you. If you see them, you must run fast, don't let them catch you." The young man named Uri leaned forward in surprise, looking at the man. "Dad, I'm not breaking the law. Why do they want to arrest me?" The man said quickly: "Now there is not much time, listen carefully, if someone is chasing you, try to run into the forest, find our wooden house and wait there; I will come to find you, then I'll explain everything." Suddenly the man's hands trembled, his eyes widened, and he looked straight ahead, panicking: "Uri, they block the front. Turn off your phone, don

A Way To Survive/Dai Dan
The morning sun shining down on the forest and birds chirping woke Uri up. Although he only slept a little in the early morning, his health had completely recovered. He stretched and sat up dreamily, looking around. It took him a while to realize where he was and what had happened. Sighing, he splashes water on his face to wake up, then takes out a packet of cookies from his backpack and eats it. The dry crackers were nothing like the delicious hot breakfast Mrs. Jane had, which his mother made for him and his sister every morning. After eating, Uri jumped off the tree branch and started moving forward. He had to find the wooden house he and Clement had built three years ago to shelter from the harsh summer sun. The wooden house is very close to a small stream, surrounded by a fence of climbing roses, and inside there is a small courtyard. In this dense forest, Uri could not locate him. The fastest way to know the location was to open the phone to locate, but if he did, he would ind

A Way To Survive/Dai Dan
Egan took Uri very deep into the forest until a waterfall fell from the top of the mountain to stop. "Our abode is behind this waterfall; join me in it." Uri looked at the tall waterfall with white foam, not knowing what was behind it. Egan pointed to a ledge in the middle of the waterfall. "You see that ledge over there? There is a cave door. You should be like me." He jumped straight into the waterfall and disappeared behind it. The height from the ground to the ledge was very high. Uri had never tried to jump that high, so he was a bit scared. But Egan can do it; indeed, he can too. He took the momentum to plunge into the waterfall exactly where Egan had just jumped. The water poured down and soaked his clothes when he crossed the waterfall. Fortunately, he landed on the wet ground in the mountain cave behind the waterfall. The cave is vast; inside, there is only darkness and the sound of Egan's footsteps. Uri could see everything clearly in the dark and quickly followed Egan

A Way To Survive/Dai Dan
Finn and Uri walked for a long time until they reached the wooden house next to the small stream, so obscured by the trees that it was difficult to spot. The house was in the dark; the vines covered the walls, the fence fell, and dry leaves covered the courtyard. Finn carefully traced the vines, opening the wooden door enough for one person to slip in. Uri followed him into the house; inside was full of beds, wardrobes, tables and chairs, and a small kitchen. "My dad hasn't been here yet." Uri took the candles from the cupboard and pulled a lighter from her pocket. Finn held his hand. "Don't light candles. We can see in the dark; the light will make it easier for humans to spot this place." Uri paused; it had only been a day that he had forgotten about the need to run away from pursuing a strange organization called Red Leaves. "I forgot. Sorry!" "There's no need to apologize because you're not used to a life of always hiding like me." Finn looked anxiously out into the dark fore

A Way To Survive/Dai Dan
The small wooden house is hidden discreetly in the dense trees; it is difficult to see it from afar. Every day, Finn teaches Uri to catch fish and catch hares. Uri learned very quickly; he could catch fish, rabbits, and even a relatively large deer in just a few days. The venison didn't finish; Finn burned the pieces of meat with charcoal, then hung the dried meat in the kitchen. "We don't have a refrigerator. We can only do this to preserve food." Uri memorized everything Finn taught him; survival knowledge like this is essential. Day after day, Clement did not come, making Uri extremely impatient. But the wooden house was the rendezvous point. He did not dare to go anywhere and could only wait patiently. Fortunately, with Finn by his side, life is less tedious and feels safer. On the eighth night, a flashlight glimmered in the woods, approaching the wooden house. Finn was the first to notice footsteps in the distance, nervously pulling Uri out of the house and jumping onto a hid

A Way To Survive/Dai Dan
"Three thousand years ago, vampires and humans lived together on earth. But vampires always win all wars with a power that surpasses a human's." Clement's voice echoed in the wooden house lit by a small candle. Outside, the forest was dark, with the occasional sound of wild animals hunting and insects chirping. "Vampires are extremely warlike and slaying; they treat humans as food, sucking human blood when thirsty or killing when they want to amuse themselves." Uri blurts out: "Vampires are warlike and love to kill? Dad said I'm a vampire, so why have I never thought about killing people?" Clement patted Uri's arm. "Listen to the story three thousand years ago, and you will know." Uri silently listened to Clement's story. "Faced with extinction, mankind was forced to perform a sacrifice to ask for salvation from the god of Genesis." "A sacrificial ritual? I have never read this in the history books of humanity?" Uri said. "Because this sacrificial ritual was so scary, it became

The celebrant got up and held the torch high, and the others stood around him, their burning torches raised to the sky."We accept the terms of Genesis. If this is not true, the body will die, and the soul will go to hell." The celebrant shouted.The crowd in the magic circle chanted in unison: "We accept Genesis's terms. If this is not true, the body will die, and the soul will go to hell."Outside the magic circle, the Vampire King roared like a mad dog."Genesis, go away. Lowly humans, you won't be saved by him."The people around the celebrant Marius prayed with one heart, looking forward to the light in the night sky. That is the only one who can save them from the clutches of the vampires. They believe in this powerful god and vow to leave humanity's fate in the hands of Genesis.Feeling the sincerity and firm faith of those who performed the sacrificial ritual, the booming voice again resounded throughout the sky."I accept your oath. From now on, humans will be the masters of

A Way To Survive/Dai Dan
Surrounding the vast castle of the Vampire King were walls of gray stone. There is no road to get there; the mountain area is just craggy cliffs.But the cliff is only dangerous to humans, and with its strength, vampires can reach the castle quickly.Inside the vast castle lit by torches embedded in the stone walls, the Vampire King sat on a throne, wielding a black sword, watching his subordinates stand below."Ten days after, Genesis will open the space portal for us to live in another land. What's your opinion?"The vampires immediately started cursing humans and Genesis. They were so angry that everyone's eyes were as red as blood.A man with silver hair raised his hand to signal the vampires to be quiet, then stepped forward to stand in front of the throne."My venerable king, the earth is ours; we should fight the Genesis for dominion.""Against the Genesis?" A middle-aged man in a red robe stepped up from the crowd. "You should remember, Genesis created all things. To fight him

A Way To Survive/Dai Dan
"We are descendants of the people left on earth, so we no longer have the power of the original vampire, am I right?" After hearing the story three thousand years ago, Uri glanced at Finn."We have not only lost our strength, but also our ancestors' aggressive and killing nature." Finn replied, then added: "Although Genesis stripped us of our power, we still retain our speed, longevity, and eyes that can see in the dark.""Because they lost their power and became better than their ancestors, even better than many human beings, so I opposed the existence of the Red Leaf organization," Clement said."Dad, can you tell me more about the Red Leaf organization?" Uri curiously asked Clement."After the portal closed, humans discovered that some vampires still exist on earth. They knew that Genesis had stripped vampires of their powers, so they hunted down and killed these vampires for revenge." Clement continued the story."To make this more effective, h
Last Updated : 2022-09-08Chapter 10: The key to the portal of space.
A Way To Survive/Dai Dan
Finn was silent for a moment, carefully choosing his words before continuing:"After the dimensional portal closed, not only did Prince Nolan and his minions remain on earth, some distant vampires did not receive the information, nor were they able to arrive in time to pass through the portal.""The prince has gathered everyone to the castle in the mountains to fight together against humanity's revenge. One night, the prince heard the voice of the Creator. He told the prince that he had left the key to the space portal. If we find it, we have a chance to reach a new land.""The key to the space gate?" Uri whispered in surprise. "Is there that key?""I don't know, but we believe in it to have a living hope, better than no hope," Finn replied sadly.Uri thought for a moment, then wondered. "For three thousand years, no one has found that key. Why don't you guys find another way?""Our previous generations sought to compromise with humanity so that we could live peacefully with them. But
