Chapter 1: The Castle of Dracula
Late Autumn is a small bar located in the center of the new third district, in the downtown area of Hongshi.
Actually, it's not necessarily that it's small. In the long, well-lit street, the faΓ§ade does not look large, but after passing through the narrow staircase, it suddenly opens up after passing through the gate.
Unlike other noisy bars in the downtown area, the empty room recalls the beautiful music of vintage records. Men and women sit at the table or laugh, listen to music and read a book, and enjoy a variety of drinks unique to the store.
Xiao Wu, who worked at the bar, was a little absent-minded, and frequently swept in one direction, and even the bartending he was good at was a little clumsy. He finally couldn't help but quietly pull the waitress to the side, hinting at a certain table with his eyes. "Whispering, do you think that girl over there is beautiful enough?"
Whispering was stunned for a moment, and then looked up at the woman Xiao Wu said.
She looks like she is over twenty years old, and she can't tell her age, but her every move reveals an intellectual atmosphere, which makes people feel very calm and comfortable just by watching her from afar.
Ninety-five points! Whisper whistled in her heart, and immediately understood what Xiao Wu meant, opened the bar and walked in. "If you scare the guests away, Auntie will stop your pocket money for half a year."
"Ann, Ann. I'm just curious about that woman's story. Xiao Wu blinked and walked out with a glass of light blue wine that he had carefully matched, "Please help me top it." β
Whispering smiled lightly, skillfully took over Xiao Wu's work, and fiddled with all kinds of drinks.
"May I treat you to a drink?" Xiao Wu gentleman walked to the woman's side, a bow, and he was particularly dignified with a close-fitting tuxedo.
He placed the blue wine in front of the woman. In the dim light, the drinks reflected a light blue glow, as quiet and sweet as this woman.
"Of course." Qing Yan, who was interrupted by Xiao Wu's thoughts, smiled politely and made a gesture of please.
Whispering eyes swept over the two, not worried.
Anyone who comes to this store knows that although Xiao Wu, the son of the owner, seems to be abrupt, he is actually just curious about the different experiences of different people. It's like a child who likes to listen to stories, curious, but not evil.
Speaking of which, it's like when I picked up my down-and-out self. She didn't expect that there would be a person who took her home directly just to hear her story and took her in for a while.
It's not ungrateful to whisper, that's why I help in the small bar.
It's just that the leisure time is almost over......
"Alright, rush hour is coming, you kid shouldn't hurry up and get me to work." Xiao Wu and Qingyan talked and laughed, and the proprietress walked out of the back hall, directly lifted her son's ears and pulled them up, and did not forget to apologize to Qingyan.
"It hurts, it hurts." The little martial ghost cried wolf, attracting a good-natured laugh.
"Whispering you, you just spoil this kid too much." The proprietress crossed her waist and pushed Xiao Wu back to the bar, "It's common sense to do your own thing." β
"There's nothing wrong with being a man with a long line of knowledge." whispered a gentle smile and thoughtfully helped Xiao Wu out of the siege.
"I'm not a child, just listen to some stories, and have the ability to go out for a walk." The proprietress raised her eyebrows, "Nie Qian didn't become a ghost king just by listening to the story." β
"Don't keep talking about Nie Qian, if I could compare with her, I wouldn't have been crowned king a long time ago." Xiao Wu muttered, but was ruthlessly suppressed by the proprietress .
Nie Qian, the ghost king of one of the five kings of the current supernatural beings. The entire new three districts are her jurisdiction, and the Hongshi City, where Late Autumn is located, is her base camp.
"Then you listen to fewer stories and do more things." The proprietress slapped Xiao Wu's head, causing both Whisper and Qingyan to purse their lips and smile.
Xiao Wu grinned and grimaced in protest.
"You guy......" Before the proprietress could finish teaching her son, there was a 'bump', and the small door at the door was kicked open by the guests outside.
The attention of the guests in the bar was drawn to it, and a wave of men and women walked in at the staircase.
"Yo, why is there such a shabby bar in the downtown area?" A woman with heavy makeup in the lead unabashedly expressed her disgust and looked around.
The temple can't accommodate the big Buddha, you can go out if you think it, and frowned imperceptibly.
But she didn't say anything that didn't fit her identity. "I'm sorry, but we're a members-only bar and it's only open to certain guests, do you have any reservations?"
Of course, this sentence is just to say the eviction order with your eyes open.
Whispering looked up and down at the eight people who came in.
These eight young people wore heavy makeup, dressed in strange shapes, did not hide the tattoos on their bodies, and their attitudes and personalities were very flamboyant and arrogant, if she guessed correctly, most of them were superpowers.
As the base camp of the Ghost King, the entry and exit of the Mighty are extremely common. However, the average local adept is usually very low-key, and these guests who show off their might are probably outsiders.
And the supernatural people who will gather in Hongshi at this time are naturally for one purpose, and they should not be outside at this time. The proprietress smiled and whispered to the people away.
However, there are exceptions to everything.
"Why, if you are willing to step on your feet, you will be rewarded for your face, and you will not be ashamed, right?" Hearing Whisper's words, a man with holes all over his body and dressed very strangely kicked Qiang next to Whisper with an unhappy face, and lowered his body to force Whisper against the wall.
He bowed his head, his burning breath mixed with pungent perfume sprayed on Whisper's face, making no secret of his malice. "Are you deliberately getting your attention?"
"Just such a poor girl?" The woman in the back looked her whisper up and down and sneered. "The toad wants to eat swan meat."
Whispering lowered her eyes and stood there motionless, as if she was frightened, and did not respond.
The man scoffed, but he didn't think it was interesting. He let go of the whisper and walked towards the empty table in the room.
"I'm sorry, but we're a members-only bar that's open to certain guests, do you have any reservations in advance?" Xiao Wu walked out of the bar and stopped in front of Whisper.
"Make an appointment, do you want to make an appointment, little brother." The man was rejected twice and said that he was very unhappy, and he didn't want to think about it, so he directly punched Xiao Wu's head.
Xiao Wu instinctively wanted to dodge to the side, but he glanced at the whisper behind him, and stubbornly raised his left arm to block.
It's too late, it's too soon. Whisper took the empty goblet that had been taken away from Qingyan and had not yet had time to clean it, and knocked it on the wall casually, and the glass on the mouth of the cup shattered.
She placed the bottom of the cup towards Xiao Wu's arm, and the shattered side was just in time for the fist that slammed into the man.
It all happened naturally, as if she knew it would be like this from the beginning.
Although the man's fist hit Xiao Wu's arm, he didn't get the desired result, but instead the back of his own stabbed hand was bleeding.
"Huh." With a thud, the man inhaled in pain.
". Child. The man gritted his teeth fiercely, his back arched, countless hairs grew on his body, and his clothes were directly torn, and finally turned into a half-human, half-bear.
It's just a mere transformation of the supernatural ability, whispering, his eyes flashing slightly, and his heart snorted coldly.
She looked at Xiao Wu's figure who was about to take a step forward, and reached out to pull him. Xiao Wu, who was caught off guard, didn't know why he was pulled back by Whispering.
It is true that Xiao Wu is not an anomaly, but he has also been recognized by a junior martial artist, and he should not be pulled out of focus by a woman.
But before he could react, the bear-man man stopped strangely as if he had hit a wall, and even two teeth were broken.
"Boss!" Seeing that the bearman was frustrated, the young people in the back turned on their abilities. Some of them have become half-human, and some of their limbs have become eerie with subtle reinforcements.
Xiao Wu whispered and rolled past their attack.
As soon as she raised her head, she met the confused and flustered eyes of the intellectual woman.
"Put it all in." Whispering said to the woman.
"But......" The woman watched as her whispering pupils dilated, as if she didn't know how to explain.
Whispering a smile, "Dracula's castle? β
Qing Yan (that is, the intellectual woman) nodded hurriedly, saw the whispering eyes, bit her lip, and directly activated the ability.
Dracula's Castle: Construct a distorted castle that can only be seen by the capable and the receiver, all objects within the range are the receivers of the ability, and the castle can be docked with the outside world or closed according to the requirements of the capable person. (There is a vampire in the castle, the vampire has a fixed path and moves relatively slowly, but will not let go once it locks on to its target.) In the castle, in addition to the able, vampires have absolutely great power. Vampires are hostile to anyone in the castle)
