Chapter 56: The Vampire Captive (For [What Haha] Helmsman Added)
Bang! Bang!
There was a bang on the bedroom door, Zhang Hao suddenly opened his eyes, and he asked in a deep voice, "Who is outside?"
"Master, I'm Stone!" Stone said in fear, "There are three vampires outside, and they are attacking the enchantment. β
Zhang Hao said angrily: "Arrest them for me first, and then deal with them tomorrow morning." β
"Yes, my lord. β
Zhang Hao was a little puzzled, how could there be vampires to attack the castle for no reason?
He thought for a moment and couldn't figure it out, so he lay down in bed and went back to sleep.
Once awakened while immersed in the mysterious illusion, it will be impossible to re-enter that night.
This was an opportunity for Zhang Hao - he hadn't tried to sleep properly in a long time.
......
The next morning, the bright Yang light shone through the gap in the curtain onto the bed, waking Zhang Hao up from his dream.
He stretched and lay down with his eyes squinted for a while before he began to get dressed and get up.
"Hi, good morning?"
"Huh!"
Zhang Hao feels that today's spirit seems to be much better than before, if there is any change, it can only be that the soul has become more refined.
It's like skin that has been dry for a long time suddenly becomes very round after being nourished by moisture.
"It seems that it is good to sleep once in a while!"
used to sink into the illusion every night, and on the surface, it seemed that Zhang Hao had enough rest.
But in reality, this rest is only a physical rest, and his soul is still active.
Every spell cast, every death, every mood swing in the illusion...... It can make the soul exercise, but in the process of exercising, the soul power will always be consumed.
This consumption can only be compensated for by sleep, and Zhang Hao has not slept for a long time.
The body is exhausted by overwork, and the same is true of the soulβthe difference is that the two are not the same degree of exertion.
Zhang Hao's soul was still far from exhaustion, but it was already like a severely dehydrated clay sculpture full of cracks.
And last night's real sleep was like pouring a pot of nectar into the soul, although it failed to make the soul cultivation complete, but it also repaired a lot of cracks.
That's why he feels more mellow than ever.
"Looks like I'm going to have to sleep more in the future!" he said to himself happily, "If it weren't for the three vampires attacking the city last night, I don't know when I would have found out about this!"
At the thought of this, he felt a lot better.
"Hmm! go see those three guys first, and if they're not too ugly, spare them!"
The three vampires were locked in the dungeon by the elves, and Zhang Hao was not interested in wandering around the gloomy dungeon.
He directly ordered the elf to bring the prisoners up and met them in the living room.
The three vampires lined up, all staring at Zhang Hao casually.
Zhang Hao was also looking at vampires, this was the first time he had seen a vampire.
There are two women and one man, and their appearance is the same as that of the legend, the handsome man and the handsome woman.
Without looking at their pale faces and blood-red eyes, it is almost impossible to distinguish them from humans.
Outwardly, the three vampires appear to belong to the same family. They all have long silver hair, narrow eyes, and thin lips......
"Tut-tut! It's really strange - are you homeless?" Zhang Hao asked lazily, "Why did you come to attack my castle?"
After a moment of silence, the female vampire on the very edge said, "Sorry to disturb you, but it is true that as you think, we are homeless." A horde of abominable werewolves has breached the castle where we live. We are desperate for a place to hide, unaware that this is you, the domain of a great wizard. β
"Yes, but that's not your reason to attack the castle barrier. Zhang Hao looked at the female vampire who spoke, and said indifferently: "If I can't explain it clearly, I can only use you for magic research." β
What kind of ruthless character is this? The bodies of the three vampires trembled almost at the same time.
"No! you can't do that!" the male vampire said in fear, "We didn't attack the castle barrier, we just crashed into the barrier and were captured by your minions! β
Zhang Hao pondered for a moment and glanced at the stone behind him.
The stone immediately said, "Master, they didn't lie. When I caught them last night, I really didn't meet with resistance. β
"Okay!" Zhang Hao smiled maliciously: "Even so, you have offended me." For me to forgive, you must pay a sufficient price. β
The three vampires looked at Zhang Hao and scolded in their hearts: "What a difficult little ghost!"
"But we have nothing, we can't give anything. The female vampire who spoke before said, "We won't have time to take the wealth with us when we flee, please believe me." β
"Akali is telling the truth!" the male vampire begged, "We're really miserable, please let us go!"
The female vampire in the middle didn't say a word, just looked at Zhang Hao pitifully.
Zhang Hao was silent for a moment and asked, "Which family are you from?"
"My name is Akali Allen Remuir, and I am the eldest sister in my family. The female vampire who spoke first introduced herself, and then pointed to the female vampire in the middle and said, "This is my sister Monica Allen Remuir." β
"My name is Barrett Duncan Remmuir, and I'm their cousin. The male vampire rushed and said, "I was a guest at their house when their castle was attacked. So I'm implicated, please let me go, I'm already miserable! Can you have more sympathy? Oh! I see you're missing two maids, why don't you take them as maids and let me go for their sake? That would be good for you, don't you think?"
Zhang Hao is really disgusted with Barrett, this guy is simply a soft bone.
A man, or a vampire.
In times of danger, not only did he not protect his little cousins, but he also betrayed them.
He's not a vampire, he's a two-devil!
Akali and Monica glared at Barrett, obviously not expecting him to be so shameless.
"You are from the Remuel clan?" Zhang Hao noticed their surnames and asked in surprise, "The Remuel clan still has a heritage?"
There are some wild histories in the wizarding world that some wizards used alchemy, magic, and vampire blood to refine a potion in pursuit of eternal life.
By ingesting this potion, they gained the ability to suck blood and greatly increased their lifespan.
And pass on the blood-sucking ability and longevity traits to future generations, thus creating a new vampire clan.
And this clan is the Remuel clan.
However, the historical records that have been handed down today say that the Remmuel clan perished hundreds of years ago, and there is no branch left at all.
Therefore, the three vampires in front of him seem to be suspected of lying.
