In the early morning, when the first rays of morning light shone into the house through the glass window, the people in the whole room, whether it was Zheng Zhe lying on the bed, or Li Shuaixi and the overlord who were on guard on the side, couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"It's a sunny day...... The sky is cloudless...... That guy (the main god) is finally not completely inhuman, if we arrange a rainy season to come to this hellish place, then we will have to cry!" Li Shuaixi pushed open the window to confirm the weather, and wiped a handful of sweat.

Faced with the threat of vampires, they had to live a life of day and night, in order to adjust the time to match the time of vampire activities, and no one wanted a pair of cold fangs to kiss their necks at night when they were sleeping soundly.

Anyway, they have drugs to improve sleep efficiency, and only one or two hours of sleep a day is enough, so they choose to take turns sleeping during the day, and there are people to be vigilant at all times, in this world where vampires and werewolves and other ghosts are prevalent, they can't relax at all.

And Zheng Zhe's physique and intermediate internal strength, even if he doesn't use drugs, he only sleeps once a week without any problem, and the reason why he lies down obediently is because of the sequelae of his hand-to-hand fight with Frankenstein a few hours ago.

Frankenstein's strength is beyond their imagination, and it is light in terms of the strength of a bear elephant, and the bones of ordinary people in his hands are about the same as halva, and they are not afraid of anesthetics, which is extremely tricky when their goal is to capture them alive.

Although Zheng Zhe's physique is three or four times that of ordinary people, after being accidentally caught by Frankenstein, he was almost suffocated in the entanglement, but fortunately, a powerful explosive force suddenly appeared in his body during the crisis, just like in the crimson realm, his bones grew violently, his muscles pulsated, and his arms more than doubled deformally, and he actually subdued Frankenstein in turn.

It's a pity that this force came and went quickly, and the sequelae was that he collapsed and weakened his whole body overnight, and he didn't recover until dawn.

"But that guy should be worse off than me right now...... If it falls into Chu Xuan's hands, it may have been dissected into small pieces......" Zheng Zha thought maliciously, because since they captured Frankenstein, Chu Xuan had spent half a night transforming a sturdy basement in Fort Veloli into a makeshift real room, and got Frankenstein in and started studying it behind closed doors.

However, just as they were about to take a nap at dawn to relieve their mental stress, a commotion from outside quickly startled them.

They all sensitively felt a bad omen coming at them, Zheng Zhe glanced at Li Shuaixi and the overlord, and finally decided to go out to see what was going on.

………………

Their current location, Fort Veloli, has the flavor of a military fortress. The majestic castle is surrounded by thick walls and towers. Manors, racetracks, mills. Dotted around the fort.

The local lords build large defensive castles. A year of war. Displaced and unemployed people gathered near the fort. So that in times of danger. Take refuge in the castle.

The lord will not let the outcasts live in the castle for a long time. People are in the vicinity of the castle. Gradually, a residential area was formed. And merchants, craftsmen. Slowly along the road to build houses shop pù. In time. When peace comes. The scale of the town is also beginning to take shape.

This is also the origin of most towns in medieval Europe. It is now the end of the 19th century. But this remote mountain town still retains this medieval atmosphere.

It is said that the ancient castle of Veloli was not only a majestic Gothic building 400 years ago. It is also surrounded by mountains and rivers. The river from Suea flows through the castle. Form a natural moat. At the same time, it also nourishes dozens of acres of vineyards on both sides. The vineyard stretches around the castle all the way back. Attach to the lawn. All the way to the hills of Suea.

However, the vineyard has now been destroyed, as any existence that can obscure the view may become a hiding place for vampires after nightfall. Instead of a vast square, which was also a training ground for the castle's soldiers, the floor was paved with heavy stone slabs of one color, which retained the original characteristics of the stones, but between the gaps, filled with whiter cement and pulled out straight white lines, which looked rough and intimidating at a glance. The fort's various outposts kept a firm watch over the surrounding square at night, and if a suspicious person or object attempted to cross the square, it would be greeted by a dense array of silver-plated crossbow arrows.

And now, the square was filled with hundreds of thousands, and shouts and shouts could be heard amidst the cacophony of people, and they were still pouring towards the fortress.

"Stop! With so many people gathered early in the morning, what is the matter?" Princess Anna said, standing under the gate of the fortress with dozens of city defenders, crossing her waist and facing the crowd.

Compared with her scolding, Wang Zongchao and Van Helsing, who were standing behind her, felt more oppressive, and in the face of these three people, the noisy crowd finally stopped.

"Alright, let the lord take a look. ”

The crowd parted, and a white-haired old man walked out, holding a girl with two braids on her head in both hands.

"Uncle Maurice, what's wrong with Lucy—" Princess Anna swallowed the rest of her words in the middle of her words. She saw two bloodshot strands on the girl's ash-like neck.

And Wang Zongchao's pupils condensed slightly when he saw the little girl Lucy, because she was the girl who lost her mother due to his fight with vampires, and he really didn't expect that she would still be unable to escape her doom.

It's just that, except for the pupils, Wang Zongchao's expression is like a statue without the slightest change.

"And then there's that!" followed the village chief's words, and the two miserable couples walked forward.

Fu Laheux and his wife Jim in the flour shop, and Mr. and Mrs. Marken the Hunter - both in their 30s, and their wives are some of the most famous beauties in town. Seeing the two of them leaning against her husband's hand and looking at the sky with dull eyes, Princess Anna understood perfectly.

"It's a vampire - it's ...... to do such a thing"

"That's right," Mark nodded. "We went to bed early because we were tired from work. When I opened my eyes with chills, I found that my wife, who was supposed to be lying next to me, was standing next to the open window, staring at me with eyes like flames, and jumped up when I realized that something was wrong.

Rasius of the flour shop continued: "Suddenly the wife made a man's voice and said, 'Hand over Frankenstein. Otherwise, your wife will always be like this. —said such a thing. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he collapsed to the ground, never moving again, nor did he speak. I hurriedly measured my pulse, but I was startled, because I couldn't measure it at all. Not even breathing. Only the heart was beating. ”

Maken's voice turned into a wail.

Wang Zongchao and Van Helsing glanced at each other, and they both saw the helplessness in each other's eyes, and it was really difficult to hide from them when the eyes and ears of vampires were everywhere.

"Please, sir," said Uncle Morris. "It's okay for me, old bone, to help you deal with Count Dracula. But、Why、My granddaughter、Lucy will ...... This kid is only six years old!"

Faced with the complaint of the grieving old man in tears, Princess Anna slowly lowered her head, and for a while, this woman who had always been strong and unyielding was speechless.

"Since you have decided to make an enemy of the demons,......" Wang Zongchao, who was on the side, spoke, his voice full of coldness and indifference, "...... How can you hope for a bloodless victory if you should have the consciousness of sacrifice? Otherwise, if the next time a vampire threatens Her Royal Highness to give her the title with the lives of a few people, will you do the same?"

Wang Zongchao's words did not mean to hide in the slightest, and the crowd on the opposite side also heard it clearly, and there was a commotion immediately.

"Shut up, you goddamn outlander!"

"You must have attacked the vampires while traveling through the wilderness, so they launched such a big revenge, you are a group of scourges!"

"We've already killed enough people, and now you're asking us to die more with you in order to be heroes!"

Immediately there was a stirring in the crowd, and at their instigation, the people became agitated, and the crowd was filled with more and more shouts and angry curses, and even began to move towards the fortress gate.

"Folks, calm down!" Princess Anna tried her best to calm the anger of the villagers, but it had little effect, this group of people had lost their relatives in the attack of the vampires yesterday, although they initially regarded Wang Zongchao and others who had repelled the vampires as heroes, but from the evening, a rumor that it was precisely because they offended the vampires that the vampires would take revenge with them began to circulate among the people.

Although they were also suspicious, when they woke up the next day and found that another group of people had been poisoned by vampires and were blackmailing them, they began to blame the strangers for their misfortune at the instigation of some people.

The people are simple, but they are also often ignorant. When they had decided on one thing, Princess Anna, who was too young to have enough prestige, could hardly convince them.

Princess Anna also felt helpless in the face of this black oppressive crowd, although she could face vampires and werewolves without fear, she had never experienced a confrontation with the people she guarded.

And at this moment, Wang Zong overtook her, facing the menacing crowd alone, standing firmly with his hands behind his back.

Obviously, there are many people on his side, and the other party only chats with a few people, but when the villagers make contact with Wang Zongchao's dark eyes, they feel the anger and fanaticism in their hearts.

In this way, the people in front subconsciously took smaller and smaller steps, and the people in the back also wanted to hide behind others and watch the wind, and then the originally menacing crowd slowly stopped, and the voice gradually became quieter.

"Are you pigs?" Facing the crowd that gradually stopped their voices, Wang Zongchao suddenly asked, his tone was very flat, and there was no negative emotion such as hatred and disdain, as if he was asking "Are you human?"

The crowd was silent for a moment before digesting the sentence, and then the people who realized that they had been insulted shouted and cursed angrily, and several stones were even thrown at Wang Zongchao in the crowd.

With a wave of his hand, Wang Zongchao lightly let a few stones return the way they came, accurately hitting the owner who threw them out, and a few screams were immediately heard from the crowd.

However, although the commotion and madness of the crowd became more and more powerful, few people dared to rush up directly and beat Wang Zongchao, after all, most of them had already seen Wang Zongchao's power.

"I found a very interesting phenomenon in the tropical jungle - a Bengal tiger with more than 30 wild boars, living together. ”

Ignoring the increasingly strong atmosphere of gunpowder, Wang Zongchao looked around the crowd and said, his voice was not loud, but his strong internal force could ensure that his every word could drown out the sound of the commotion and clearly reach the ears of every villager.

"They are not companions, because I have seen tigers feed on wild boars.

The tigers did not imprison the wild boars, because they were free to roam and only voluntarily followed the tigers.

It wasn't until I discovered that the tiger had driven away a leopard and a few wolves that had attacked the wild boar herd in a short period of time. It turns out that this is the choice of wild boars: although tigers are terrible, although they can eat them, it is far better to endure a tiger eating a companion for a week or two than to face all kinds of fierce beasts by themselves!"

After Wang Zongchao finished speaking, he sneered, "For some reason, when I look at you, I will think of those pigs!"

Listening to these sarcastic and provocative words, the crowd became angry, and someone shouted angrily: "Saying such nonsense, aren't you worried about being chopped into meat sauce by a group of us?"

Wang Zongchao didn't sneer at each other, just smiled, looked at them with encouragement, just like an adult encouraging a timid baby to take the first step in life.

"Die!"

Finally, someone couldn't stand the bitter ridicule, and as someone in the crowd suddenly shouted, the gunshots suddenly rang out.

Although most of the villagers only have some rudimentary weapons, as a hunter, Ma Ken still has a shotgun, although he may not dare to fire a gun even if he has a one-on-one confrontation with Wang Zongchao, it does not mean that he hides himself in the crowd and does not dare to put this cold gun.

After the shot, there was a series of neat, collective pumping sounds, and for a while, the air in the entire square seemed to be much thinner.

Because Wang Zongchao, who was shot, was frowning, and the shot just hit his eyebrows.

But in addition to the fact that there was no scar on the center of his eyebrows, the bullet was firmly sandwiched between his eyebrows with this frown.

And between his eyebrows, the green tendons were dense, and even his eyebrows turned blood-red, lined with the murderous cold light of his eyes, which looked quite terrifying.

Then, he raised his eyebrows, and with this exhibition, the muscles of his eyebrows, forehead, and even his ears were touched, and everyone else present actually heard a "crash" like an extremely strong cow tendon arching string.

A heart-rending scream followed, followed by a scream, and the shot had already been shot through the chest by the bullet he had just fired, and he fell on the spot.

With Wang Zongchao's iron bones and forging bones to perfection, every skeletal muscle in the body can be rigid and flexible, full of incredible elasticity and explosiveness, even the smallest expression muscles. Marken ate this blow, which was exactly equivalent to being shot by a marble fired by a crossbow.

Blood spread across the square, and faster than the blood was the crowd around the original Pen Fun Pavilion in Maken, and in an instant, there was only a lone corpse lying on the ground, and there was no one standing within a radius of two meters.

The faces of the villagers were extremely pale, although they had long known that this group of Orientals was difficult to provoke, but they did not expect that the other party would kill one person without even moving their hands and feet.

"Are you crazy? He's just a poor man whose wife has suffered misfortune, and his attack is like a mosquito bite to you, why kill him?" Princess Anna was stunned for a moment before reacting from the bloody conflict in front of her, and immediately drew her knife and pointed at Wang Zongchao, and asked.

"Anyone who wants to kill me, whether strong or weak, old or young, righteous and evil, should have the consciousness that if you can't kill me, you will be killed!" Wang Zongchao responded coldly.

As if in response to his words, a javelin suddenly flew out, screaming at a speed unbelievable to the naked eye, carving a large hole in the hard stone floor of the square, and the rubble flew sideways, and the crack spread in all directions.

Immediately afterward, another earth-shattering explosion erupted from the big hole, and even threw several heavy stone slabs around the big hole upwards several meters high, and then smashed into pieces, and the square was suddenly filled with gunsmoke.

The explosion site was hundreds of meters away from the crowd, so at most they were sprayed by some of the fine sand sprayed by the explosion, but it was psychological, some of the villagers in the back of the position had already retreated, and those in front of the queue were eager to hide their bodies behind others and not show their faces.

In this way, the crowd finally began to recede, like a tide, rising and retreating as fast as possible.

"In any case, you are not welcome in Transylvania! as long as you stay here, you will not want to get any food or help from us!" Although they did not have the courage to directly engage in physical confrontation with this group of strangers, it did not prevent some unwilling villagers from putting aside their harsh words.

"This is the main reason why the Holy See has ignored this place for four hundred years!" Van Helsing walked up to Wang Zongchao and sighed as he looked at the retreating crowd.

"In the past, the Holy See has also sent exorcism teams composed of Holy Spirit Knights and Monster Hunters many times in an attempt to break up Dracula's forces, but the key is that they can't find the frozen castle where Dracula is hiding, so they can't deal a fatal blow to Dracula.

And in the course of the fight, whenever the vampire side loses something, they will target their revenge on ordinary villagers, and for every werewolf vampire killed, they will kill more than 20 villagers to pay off. The villagers were able to tolerate such sacrifices at first, but as more and more people were killed and the culprit Dracula remained at large, they could not tolerate it, and even went so far as not to sell food and medicine to the exorcism team and drive them away.

Even the most pious knights, who could not fear the ferocity of their enemies, who could endure hunger and thirst, who could see sacrifice as glory, could not bear to fight evil while bearing the reproach and hatred of the parishioners they protected.

Ironically, because of Dracula's terror in this area, it has not been affected by the surrounding war for 400 years, and during the war years, there were still refugees who fled here to escape the war. ”

"Do you mean that our family's centuries of fighting against Dracula are just a joke?" Princess Anna also stepped forward at this time, and asked coldly.

Van Helsing shrugged and said, "I have always admired the courage and sacrifice of the Wei Luoli family!"

The implication is that he only acknowledges the courage and sacrifice of the Wei Luoli family, as for the strength......

"You ......" Princess Anna could not hear, but she sadly found that she could not find any words to refute it.

Wang Zongchao didn't want to pay attention to these, seeing that the crowd dispersed, he walked straight to Zheng Zha and the others, just now it was Zheng Zha who cooperated to throw a blasting gun to deter the villagers, and the overlord and Li Shuaixi had also prepared guns and ammunition, if the villagers didn't know each other, they would face blood.

"It's sad that we just saved them yesterday, and in the blink of an eye they want us to die. Seeing Wang Zongchao coming, Zheng Zha let out a sigh.

"Sad? Actually, they were right, if we hadn't come, they wouldn't have suffered misfortune. Wang Zongchao smiled coldly.

"We don't have anything to count on anyway, but since vampires can't bear to be lonely, we must welcome them appropriately!" Wang Zongchao clenched his fists.

Contrary to his calm and cold appearance, a raging rage burned in his chest from the sight of the unfortunate girl who was only six years old.
