Chapter 3: The Vampire Menace

At this time, Mandley was waiting anxiously in a remote seat in the tavern, and the stories told by the crowd did not appeal to him at all, and one was not paying attention, and there was an extra person in the empty seat opposite. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info He doesn't look very old, wearing a big-brimmed hat, and his eyes are hiding under the brim.

"You're the bounty hunter Lucien?"

"That's right. ”

Mandelly was a little disappointed, he had the impression that the bounty hunter should be a tough guy with a muscular beard, and the one in front of him, although he couldn't see his face clearly, was still too slender, like a girl.

"You think you'll be able to catch that vampire?"

"That's right. ”

Mandley thought that the man named Lucien was a little too conceited, and he smiled contemptuously, "He's killed eight people!"

"The first one was a girl from a bakery, who was killed on the way back from a date with her lover. The second was a washerwoman, who was killed when she went to bring a change of clothes to her master. The third was a pickpocket, the exact time of death is not clear. There are also five prostitutes who ...... In a sense, he died in the line of duty......"

Mandeli scolded: "But the money for their coffins is still mine, how can the girls work if this continues?"

"All the victims were recovered from the river and drained of blood......"

"Damn the vampires are doing something wrong here, and the clergy are not doing anything!" Mandley pounded the table excitedly.

"So you paid out of your own pocket to eliminate harm for the people, which is really commendable!"

Mandley snorted and looked Lucien up and down again, his initial impression even more ingrained.

"I want a hundred dissols. ”

"It's only ten, and you can't pay until you've completed the mission. ”

"Okay. Lucien stood up, "It seems that your girls won't be able to go out for business for the time being, unless you want to put on a few more coffins." Plus, no one but me takes this business, have a good day!"

"Wait!...... alright," Mandeli threw the 10 Tysols on the table, "the rest will only be given to you after you have completed the task!

Lucien muttered as he pocketed Tysol, "Deal!

Leaving the "Golden Monkey" tavern, at the corner of the alley, "Lucien" took off his hat, his long red wavy hair poured down, and the turquoise pupils reflected the 10 Tysols that Mandeli had just paid, Lucia smiled slightly, and then said thoughtfully: "Vampire...... Is it?"

Night fell again on Egrim, in the silent corner by the river, the man wanted to tear open the petticoat of the girl in his arms, but was stopped by the other party: "Don't worry. The girl said delicately, putting her hands on his shoulders. The other man licked his upper teeth, from left to right, and then showed an eerie smile. The tongue spun in a circle in the mouth, like a snake spitting out a letter, and suddenly stretched forward, instantly reaching 5,60 centimeters, and at the same time a needle-like thing grew from the tip of the tongue, piercing the part of the girl's neck.

The girl was faster, grabbed his tongue with one hand, and slashed it hard. The girl changed her delicate appearance just now, and became full of heroism, and even the style of speaking changed: "After waiting for several nights, I finally caught you!" But ......" The girl glanced at his tongue in disgust, "This wet and sticky thing is disgusting, and it's a shame that you can put it in your mouth! Let me clear it first!" After saying that, the girl recited the incantation in her mouth, and the hand holding the tongue tightened, and the red light suddenly rose, like a flame, burning on the slender tongue. The man suddenly showed a painful expression, but it didn't take long, only a few seconds The fire burned the strange tongue, and the man's pain disappeared, and he felt that his tongue had returned to its original state in his mouth.

The girl pulled out a short knife and put it on the man's neck: "It's just an ordinary human being, but the person who casts this snake spell on you is a master, if you don't want to die, just obediently tell this girl who that person is?"

The man wanted to struggle, but he couldn't lift his hands, and the girl smiled and said, "Don't do useless work, the bondage spell is not so easy to break!"

"I've seen the body of the last prostitute, and although it looks like a vampire, it can't escape my eyes. The small hole in the neck is artificial, you use a needle in your tongue to stun a woman, take them somewhere, then open an opening in the neck to let the blood run dry, and then throw the body into the river. Hey, what a pervert you are!"

"Spare my life! I'm just in charge of bringing them there, and I don't do the rest!"

"Oh, who did that, and where did you take them?"

"No, I can't say, they're going to kill me!"

"Aren't you afraid that this girl will take your life? I'll tell you the truth, I have many ways to kill people, and I am so vicious that it makes you feel that death is a very beautiful thing......"

"Don't kill me!" I said...... They're ......" the man said at this point when he suddenly stopped, very abruptly, and lowered his head.

Lucia shouted "not good" in her heart! The truth was exactly what Lucia thought, and in an instant, the man was killed, what kind of person, what a fast speed! While thinking about it, Lucia suddenly felt a strong killing intent attacking, and the dagger instantly changed into a long sword, but with just one wave, Lucia was thrown out more than three meters away by a great force.

Coughing twice, Lucia got up and saw a well-dressed man 10 meters away from her, with a top hat, long brown hair, lace-trimmed cuffs, a mustache, a pale face as paper, staring at Lucia gloomily, a new wound appeared on her handsome face, but the wound had healed before the blood had dripped down.

The man looked at the long sword in Lucia's hand and the blood stains that were gradually disappearing at the edge of the sword with interest, he raised his hand and touched his face, and said with a sneer: "I didn't expect anyone to hurt me, I really underestimated you." ”

"A real vampire!" Lucia shouted this sentence as she shouted "not good" in her heart! This vampire's strength and speed are far above her own, let alone subdued, even if it is not easy to escape. But how can there be vampires? Is it really as John said? But if it's just bloodsucking, why go to the trouble of knocking people unconscious before taking them somewhere? For a moment, Lucia's mind was full of questions, but the most important question at the moment was how to get out. If you knew that there were real vampires, you wouldn't have accepted the task so rashly. But the immediate trouble still has to be solved, because at night, Lucia's ability is limited, and now she has to fight hard!

With the incantation, a mist-like barrier immediately formed around Lucia. A fireball spawned from her palm, growing larger, and the glow of the fire reflected on Lucia's face, joining her red hair.

There was a hint of surprise on the vampire's face, he didn't expect Lucia to be able to indulge in such magic, seeing the huge fireball in her palm rushing over, the vampire subconsciously resisted with both arms, but the fireball passed through his body and disappeared. There is nothing lethal, not even a gust of wind.

"Tricks?" Realizing this, the vampire looked in Lucia's direction again, and walked away to the empty building.

The important survival skill of "escaping" has been used countless times in Lucia's life so far, and it is one of her life mottos to keep the green mountains without fear of running out of firewood. Since you can't beat it, you can't stay there to be slaughtered, after all, it's not the time to be handsome. In fact, in the process of escaping, Lucia's movements were even lighter, and only in the moment when the vampire was stunned, she had already escaped several streets. There was no one on the road, not only because it was late, but also because of the fear of murder and vampires, and for humans, Egreme's night was no longer so good. Lucia was running down the empty street, gasping for breath a little, and she looked back to make sure the vampire wouldn't chase her, and then slowed down. But she apparently miscalculated the vampire's speed, and around the corner of the block, Lucia was unexpectedly pulled into the darkness by the vampire, and she slammed into the wall, dizzy. The vampire laughed maniacally as he walked over to Lucia, who had collapsed to the ground, "Even if you have some skills, you might as well make my dinner," he grabbed Lucia by the neck, "Your blood must be sweet!" and took a bite down.

Lucia felt a tingling pain, she knew what was happening, but she was powerless to fight back, her whole body became limp, and the blood that flowed away also took away her energy at the same time, "Are you going to die......?

In the dark corner, the unknown spirit creature was flapping its wings, and in the blood-colored pupils, the back of the vampire was clearly visible. A gust of wind swept up and swept towards the vampire, slashing through his neck like a knife. The vampire let go of Lucia with a yell, taking several steps back. Lucia had never seen him so frightened, and she looked up in a panic, and her steps were staggering, and she had long lost her momentum.

A shrill chirp drew Lucia's attention into the air, and under a crescent moon, a large creature appeared, with bird-like feathers, but resembling the appearance of a bat. The chirping sound resounded in the sky, and the wings were more than 3 meters long. The blood-red eyes are hidden under the black wings, aggressive. The minions are sharp as knives and incredibly fast. In an instant, there were three more scratches on the vampire's body, and the wound not only did not heal as quickly as Fang Cai did, but only became worse with the roar of the monster. The vampire couldn't parry, all the magic attacks didn't work, and the physical attacks were definitely no match for it, and in less than a moment, it was already scarred.

"It's amazing!" Lucia couldn't allow herself to miss out on admiring such a wonderful battle, and she was very curious about the strange bird, as she had never seen or even heard of it.

The battle is soon over, and the vampires are devoured by the monster birds, and the ashes are annihilated. Lucia took a deep breath: "What about being saved...... although I don't know the origin of the other party, but it did save itself, and I should express my gratitude, but Lucia really has no strength at this time, and the amount of blood sucked by the vampire just now is enough to kill her!

In a blurred vision, the strange bird flew towards her. Lucia thinks that it can use magic to save herself, but she thinks wrongly, and instead of saving her, the strange bird bites the place where the vampire has just bitten open, and continues to suck blood!

"Wait...... What is this for...... Another form of ...... Bloodsucker...... Gra......dually, Lucia's mind began to blur, but one thing was clear, she could feel that, unlike vampires, strange birds seemed to have a power generated in their bodies when they sucked blood, what was it? Lucia slowly closed her eyes and stopped breathing.

Suddenly, the strange bird fell to the ground in pain, and a silver light rose around it, and the range of the light gradually increased, gradually enveloping Lucia's body, and the brightness of the light became higher and higher, until it could pierce the blind people's eyes, and then dissipate like fireworks after detonation. When everything was gone, the strange bird was gone, and Lucia slowly opened her eyes.
