Chapter 205: Werewolves
In fact, Tang Bai still underestimated the pearl a little. When he awoke from his fluffy bed and walked to the living room, a tattered-looking book was laid out on the table, along with some delicate breakfasts.
"The magic book you want." Seeing Tang Bai, Pearl got up from the chair and tapped the magic book placed on the table with her onion fingers.
Tang Bai didn't speak, walked to the table and reached out to rummage through the book that looked loose and would fall apart at any time.
Beneath the hard cover is a yellowish parchment-like paper. It is densely marked with small words and inexplicable patterns. The page is not concise, it can even be said to be messy. Usually on a piece of paper, there are often several small square strips of paper like small flags. It is also crowded with dense text.
The spellbook was heavy, about the thickness of a man's fist. But in fact, the number of pages inside it is far from matching its thickness. Those ubiquitous little strips of paper hold up the thickness of the page. It records the vast majority of the magic that the witch Emily wielded.
"It seems to be going well." Tang Bai glanced at it a few times, and then closed the cover of the book with his backhand. After pulling out a chair and sitting down, he said as he reached out and pulled a plate in front of him.
"Something actually happened." Pearl also sat back in her place, her slender waist straight, and her tone was a little helpless.
"What's the situation? You've been discovered? Or is it recognized? Tang Bai asked while enjoying the breakfast made of pearls.
"We only brought back a few branches of the white oak tree. Originally, we wanted to bring it back for you in its entirety, along with its roots. But a witch found us. Pearl replied.
"Witch?" Tang Bai paused with some interest.
The witches of Mystic Falls were actually migrated from Salem, Massachusetts. Year 1692. The town of Salem initiates a witch trial. Nineteen people were hanged and one was stoned to death. More than 200 people were arrested and detained.
End of the XVII century. After the wizarding trial, a group of wizards migrated from Salem to Mystic Falls. and settled here. In a way, it was the migrated wizards who created the town, not the so-called founding families such as Lockwood, Gilbert, and Salvatore.
However, these migrated wizards did not escape the slaughter in the end. They were imprisoned in a white house and burned to death. Therefore, if there are still wizards in Mystic Falls at this moment, then it can only be Emily's descendants.
Although Emily was also betrayed by Catherine, she was executed by the Founders' family. However, her descendants are sheltered by Damon Salvatore, who had a deal with Emily - Emily promised to cast a spell to protect Catherine, Pearl and other vampires from being burned by the flames. Damon Salvatore, for his part, assured Emily. will do her best to protect and not harm her offspring.
"Yes, I don't think you want us to be exposed. So after I found out that the witch had appeared, I told Billy and the others to abandon their original plan and bring back only some branches. Pearl said, "Of course, if you insist on the whole oak tree......
"No, no. A few twigs are sufficient. Tang Bai shook his head and interrupted Pearl's words. He wants white oak trees. The white oak tree alone is the only thing in this world that can make the vampire ancestors fearful and kill them.
A simple, cut white oak stake. can kill a vampire ancestor.
From this point of view, there is no difference between some branches and the whole white oak tree for Tang Bai. He did it out of caution. Just be prepared. In fact, even if there were no white oak tree stakes, Tang Bai would not really be afraid of one or two ancestors in his heart.
The white oak branches they had brought back were thrown on the ground outside the wagon. The thickness of the bowl mouth. It is about two meters long, and there are scattered small branches on it. If it is made into a conical stake with the thickness and length of the forearm. Save a little, this branch can make more than a dozen.
This amount, in terms of self-defense and reserves, is definitely enough for Tang Bai.
White oak tree stakes have been obtained.
Emily's spellbook is also in hand.
Tang Bai also temporarily had the first batch of vampire subordinates with a number of close to thirty people.
Pearl also told him a lot of things he wanted to know and know.
Now here, Tang Bai only has one last thing left. That is to verify how effective the wolf poison potion is on the werewolves of this world.
The daylight hours passed quickly.
A full moon in the shape of a disc illuminates the night sky.
Tang Bai was in a forest not far from the ancient mansion of Lockwood, and he was followed by Pearl and Phil. The other vampires stayed in the carriage in peace.
"Are you sure he'll come?" Phil looked up at the moon, which was getting rounder and rounder in the night, and then withdrew his gaze, a cautious expression.
"It's just a possibility. If he wants to keep his family's secrets and deal with both of our threats, tonight will be his best chance. Although Phil didn't name anyone, Tang Bai knew very well who he was referring to.
"Who are you talking about?" The pearl on the side swept his suspicious gaze on Tang Bai and Phil's faces, and his eyebrows frowned slightly.
"George Lockwood. You may still have an impression. Tang Bai directly said a name.
Pearl nodded in understanding: "The ambitious eldest son of the Lockwood family." That's not a fuel-efficient lamp. ”
"What if he doesn't come?" Phil looked up at the night sky again.
"Wait a little longer. The transformation of a werewolf lasts for several hours. If he doesn't come, we'll go to the door. Tang Bai said in a very calm tone.
"You weren't going to tell him how to make that potion in the first place, did you?" Phil's curiosity rekindled.
"Why not? It doesn't matter who knows how to make the potion, the main material for making the important potion can only be obtained from me. Tang Bai replied. The production of wolf poison potion is not simple, and the materials required are mostly magical plants that need to be specially cultivated. Tang Bai didn't think that kind of magical plant could be found in this world.
The little dragon who had been squatting on Tang Bai's head suddenly raised his head, and his golden eyes looked around at the darkness around him. Pearl and Phil suddenly became a little vigilant, as if they had noticed something wrong, and they also looked around cautiously.
In the dark forest, there seemed to be some kind of creature moving at an alarming speed. (To be continued......)
