Bai Xia was originally waiting for midnight in his room, but when it was almost 11 o'clock, there was an inexplicable noise outside. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

He summoned a few low-level handymen who were serving him and asked about the situation, but they didn't know very well, but it seemed that something had happened to Jiang Yunkong.

[Something happened? Forget it, it doesn't matter to me anyway. He thought about it and went back to his room to rest. Anyway, it's none of my business, hang high.

At 12 o'clock, Bai Xia entered the game again.

……

Time in the game was still stagnant at the moment when Jing Yuexin and Bai Xia rushed out of the room, and the two of them came back after a little bit of a moment after going online.

Jing Yuexin and Bai Xia hurriedly went downstairs, the screams came from the first floor, and when the two of them went down, the others had already arrived. Everyone gathered around the door of a room on the first floor, which, according to White, was supposed to be where the next person lived.

Standing outside the door were Mrs. Roddy and her children, David and Lucy, and a maid who was so frightened that she sat on the ground, probably from the scream she had just made.

Upon closer inspection, Mitterrand, the owner of the house, and White were crouched in the room to examine a corpse.

Jing Yuexin was also taken aback when she saw the corpse, because the corpse was shriveled like dried red dates, covered in skin and bones, and white all over, and there was no trace of blood in sight.

At this time, White was heard saying to Mitterrand: "Master, all the blood on her body has been drained, and there is not half a drop left, and the only wound on her body is on her neck." He pointed to the corpse's neck, where four holes stood out.

There were only a few people in the house, and it was easy to deduce that the deceased was another maid, so who was the murderer?

Jing Yuexin looked at Bai Xia, not knowing if he had anything to say. It's just a pity that the latter is indifferent and does not seem to intend to express an opinion.

In this way, Jing Yuexin can only guess by herself. The first thing she suspected was that White, because this person was so suspicious, especially the action of inhaling hard from time to time, how weird it looked.

[However, he seems to have said that the more people who look alike, the less they tend to be, which seems to be a common problem with game difficulties.] Jing Yuexin suddenly remembered one of the concepts instilled by Bai Xia's cramming, and for a while it was not easy to be sure whether the murderer was White or not. ”

But this murderous method is too strange, how did those two wounds be caused? Why? If you want to kill someone, there are more labor-saving means.

Jing Yuexin thought about it according to the way of thinking given by Bai Xia, and sure enough, she could find unnatural places in many places, and she wanted to discuss it with Bai Xia.

However, at this time, Bai Xia opened his mouth and asked Mitterrand: "Mr. Mittron, don't you have anything to say?" ”

Mitrand sighed when he heard this: "The two of you have also seen it, our family is now being targeted by a monster, and this time the two of you are invited to solve it." ”

[Were we invited?] Jing Yuexin suddenly remembered what Bai Xia said about the "setting", as if to say that after entering a world, sometimes there may be more identities that you don't know, and if you can integrate it more easily into the mission plot, it may be the setting of the game system.

She now has a real feeling, and it turns out that "setting" is like this.

Bai Xia didn't think about so many things like Jing Yuexin, but continued to ask, "Targeted by monsters?" What kind of monster is it? How much do you know about that monster? Why are you being targeted? ”

Mitrand stood up and went into the hall, and his wife and children hurriedly followed, not daring to linger a little longer at the edge of the dead man's room. White was left alone to dispose of the body. As for the rest of the maid? She hadn't recovered yet.

When Mitron arrived in the hall, he began to recount the cause of the incident: "The youkai that targeted us this time is a 'vampire', a kind of youkai that lives by sucking the blood of other creatures, and it is very powerful, and the corpses killed by them are easily recognizable, with only four fangs piercing wounds on the top and bottom of the body. ”

[It turns out that the wound was bitten out!] Only then did Jing Yuexin know that those four holes were actually tooth marks.

Bai Xia wasn't too surprised, and then asked, "Why did the vampire target you?" ”

When Mitrand heard this, he said to his wife and children, "You go back to your room and rest first." ”

"But......" Mrs. Roddy wanted to say more.

But Mitron's face sank, and he drank: "Go back!" ”

The three of them had no choice but to do so, and the majesty of the head of the family was still very sufficient.

Then Mitrand said to White, "After that, arrange Sara too." ”

"Yes, sir." White replied respectfully. Sara must be the name of the living maid.

After sending everyone away, Mitrand said to Bai Xia and Jing Yuexin, "Please come with me." ”

He lit an oil lamp, led the two to the first floor under the stairs, opened a secret door on the floor and walked in.

Jing Yuexin and Bai Xia followed down and found that there was a three-meter-square basement below, which was extremely empty, with only a pitch-black coffin in the center

"...... this?" Jing Yuexin couldn't help but ask.

Mitrand didn't say much, and walked over and lifted the lid of the coffin, revealing the contents of the coffin.

I saw a woman with gray skin lying quietly in the coffin, and she looked as if she was asleep. But if you look any further, you can see a silver nail in her body, right near her heart.

"Actually, a long time ago, this manor belonged to this vampire, I was just one of the blood food she kept in captivity, a domestic animal that was not even as good as a slave, and lived a life worse than death every day, until one day, a strong man suddenly appeared, he defeated the vampire and sealed her in this basement."

"He told me that it would take 40 years to kill this vampire completely, and that I had to guard it for him, and that's the price he had to pay for saving me, or he would have killed me."

"Naturally, I can only promise him, fortunately, as time passes, nothing happens, and I inherited the wealth of the vampire and lived a luxurious life, which made me almost forget about it, until a few days ago, I suddenly received a letter from that person, saying that this vampire actually has a blood clone, but the strength of the blood clone was too weak at first, and it did not inherit the memory of the body, and it was muddy, and it would not pose a threat to me."

"But now so many years have passed, before the body is about to be killed, the blood clone will inevitably follow the instinct to find and rescue the body, I was very scared when I read the letter, just in case, I had to go to the mercenary union to issue a task for help, I didn't expect it to really come, the task of the two is to protect us until 8 o'clock tonight, at that time it is just a 40-year period, as long as the vampire's body dies, the blood clone will immediately collapse."

Mitron's words were very long, and there was no pause in the middle, and after saying it in one breath, it would take a while for Bai Xia and Jing Yuexin to digest and digest.

Especially Jing Yuexin, she was simply confused: "40 years? Blood clones? Mercenary? What is this? ”

Only then did she know that this mission had such a background. [Although I don't understand it very well, but if I simplify it, I guess it's about dealing with the blood clones of vampires.] 】

Bai Xia continued to ask: "According to what you say, the one who killed that maid was the blood clone of the vampire?" ”

"Yes," Mitterrand nodded, "I won't be mistaken, it's only a vampire bite that leaves a corpse." ”

Bai Xia asked again: "Then according to what you say, since the vampire's blood clone is so powerful, why didn't she just kill all of you?" What is the purpose of killing only one and then alarming everyone? ”

Mitrand heard the words and replied: "Actually, this is the case, although this nail can restrain vampires, but its power does not come out of thin air, it must be watered with blood every once in a while, which is why someone needs to watch, of course, the so-called watering is not a direct drop of blood, but a contract mark like something, which can automatically draw blood from the human body, as long as you live near the nail for a period of time, you will automatically get the mark." ”

"Anyone who does the nail with blood will have a connection with it, and these people can get a part of the nail's protection, but at the same time, if all these people die, the nail will also lose its usefulness, and for 40 years, I have tried to reduce the population of this manor, and finally the number of 7 people will maintain the blood supply of the nail, of course, this matter is unknown to no one other than me and White."

"The vampire's blood clone itself can't touch this nail, and there is only one way to pull it out, and that is to kill those of us who have watered the nail with blood, and we don't even need to kill it all, as long as the power of the nail is weakened to a certain extent, the vampire's body will break free by itself, and then we will die."

"The only good news is that if you kill any of us, the power belonging to the silver nail in our body will explode, and the blood clone obviously can't withstand that kind of counterattack continuously, so it can't kill people continuously, and please protect us, don't let the vampire clone continue to kill, or if possible, you can also find that blood clone and kill it, so it would be better."

After hearing this, Bai Xia said, "Since you want to protect everyone, why are you still sending everyone to their respective rooms, isn't it easier to protect them when they gather together?" ”

Mitron said: "The blood clone can't kill people continuously, since someone is dead, then we are safe for the next period, according to the master's letter, there is almost a safety period of 1 hour." ”

"Alright then," Bai Xia said, "Let's go up." ”

With that, the three of them returned to the first floor together, and Jing Yuexin, who walked at the end, glanced at the female vampire, and then turned around, a trace of doubt appeared on her face...... (To be continued.) )
