Volume 1: The Lost El Dorado Chapter 44: A Story
"Even a person with a pure heart, a person who does not forget to pray at night, will inevitably turn into a werewolf on a full moon night when the aconitum is in full bloom. —Parr's Gate
This is a story of forbidden love, this is a poignant love story, this is a rebellion against fate that is constantly fighting against fate.
As the most famous vampire slayer of the werewolf clan, Baker Rusme has always been proud of his achievements. In the werewolf clan of the devil's claw, no werewolf has a record that can surpass Baker, even the clan's patriarch, the most powerful warrior of the past, Medmund Leckler, whose peak results cannot be compared to his own achievements.
There are countless vampires who have died at the hands of Baker, and they have died cruelly, all of them are corpses with severed arms, not human form. For the vampires, the werewolf's nemesis, such an enemy must be eliminated as soon as possible, and Baker's exploits have successfully threatened Mademund's position in the Devil's Claw Clan.
Corrupted by the vampires, Madmund abandoned the most traditional beliefs of werewolves and spared no vampire, and at the same time, the position of patriarch of the clan could only be elected through battle. But the aged Mademund feared Baker's power and was afraid to fight Mademund.
So, he shamelessly chose to escape, chose to make an alliance with the feuding vampires, and set a trap together to kill Baker.
When the conspiracy came, Baker was still basking in the excitement of having just wiped out a small vampire family, unaware of the danger.
It was a cliché plot in which a peasant girl rescued a hunted alien under the trick of fate, and fell in love with this alien under many coincidences. But the joke of fate made the two people suffer a lot. Eventually, relying on the strength of the interracial male, he and her beloved girl escaped from danger.
This is Baker's story, a slightly clichéd, but also thrilling story.
"So, is that vampire baron a member of the vampire family that once hunted you down?" Karl asked Baker after taking a soft sip of his drink.
"No, I don't know the vampire's family crest. Baker shook his head, denying Carl's speculation.
"Maybe it's because of my children. The rugged man's face was full of struggle, and his face, which had just been restored to a human face, still had some ferocity of a beast on it.
"My child is a hybrid of werewolves and humans, although the bloodline is not pure enough, but for some reason that I don't know, if my child awakens the nature of werewolves, he will be a powerful werewolf. In the face of Carl's inquiring gaze, Baker no longer struggled, but explained the truth of the matter.
"Although we werewolves and vampires have a feud, werewolf blood is even more poisonous to vampires. But the blood of a werewolf-human hybrid descendant like my child is a fine wine for a vampire. If my child awakens to his werewolf nature, I'm afraid it will be the time for the vampire army to attack. ”
"Uncle Baker, this should be your willingness to take the initiative to talk to me, otherwise outsiders will know the special features of your family, and I'm afraid you won't be able to live in this small village. ”
"Huh...... Heh......" Baker laughed dryly, and then said: "I have been secretly observing your behavior since you were in the last village, and although I cannot confirm your character, I have no way to do it when I am desperate. If I can't find help, then my child can only die, so little brother, you must help me!" Speaking of this, Baker's eyes have become resolute, "If little brother is not willing to help me, then everyone in Butz Village will be buried with my child!"
Looking at Uncle Baker, whose eyes were resolute and revealing madness, Carl sighed inwardly. What if he faced such a situation, just as he knew at that time, Vilia was going to return to Danasir.
"If I didn't help your uncle, I wouldn't have stayed at your house. Also, uncle, do you think I, who has killed a vampire, will be let go by them?" Karl's eyes were sincere.
"Little brother, although I threatened you, but if it really comes to that point, I still hope that you can take my child away. It would be nice for Anne and I to see my little Arthur go down. At this point, Baker suddenly stood up, and Carl realized that Baker's wife, a peasant woman who was willing to marry a werewolf, was standing behind him.
Baker held his wife's hands affectionately, "The two looked at Carl together, and Baker took the lead in speaking: "Little brother, although I don't understand why you are the way you are, but instead of making yourself troubled, it is better to find a way to change, so that there will be regrets." ”
Looking at the two people in love, Carl seemed to understand something, and Anne looked at Baker's eyes, which Carl had seen before, when Velia looked at him.
Now that Carl is willing to agree to help him, Baker no longer hides his strength, and at the same time begins to tell Carl about the possible vampire castle nearby.
On a hill far from the village of Butz sits a gloomy castle. A jumble of vines crawled all over the castle walls, and abominable gargoyles sat in the four corners of the castle, their obsidian glimmering in their eye sockets, watching the environment around the castle unchanged for a long time.
Candles with thick baby arms on the walls illuminate the hall from the menorah. Looking forward along a long table, the head of the Louvans family, John III, the vampire Earl, was sitting at the top, a pair of indifferent eyes swept over the faces of the family members on either side of the long table.
"Just now, a member of our family died. John III said without emotion.
When John III's voice fell, the hall was still quiet, and the death of a family member would not attract much attention, even if it would be John III.
But before he died, he came back with interesting news. The hazy gray mist was thrown into the air by John III, and then formed an image. In this video, Carl is respectfully offering a blood-red gem to William Lufans. But in the next second, Carl's Holy Silver Dagger stabbed into William Luvans's abdomen. "Do you see clearly?"
In the hall, there was still not a single vampire answering John III's question, but from the heavy gasps in the hall, John III already knew the answer.
"Now that they've all seen that Blood Crystal, who wants to go and retrieve it?"
Inside the hall, there was even more silence, and the heavy gasps disappeared after John III had said this.
John III was satisfied, and the stupid fellow in the hall behaved and knew what to do when.
"Father, I have a question about why William, the idiot, sent this image back before he died. He seems to have a lot of problems with the outcome of the duel between him and Sean that the family had made before. Now that the news of such a treasure has been transmitted back to the family, will there be a trap? ”
A middle-aged man sitting very close to John III stood up and said respectfully.
"Andrew, are you too timid to deceive a great father even William's waste?" Seeing a leader speak, the vampire, who was sitting opposite Andrew, who looked similar to Andrew, stood up and said with a mocking face.
"Andre, you give me a little respect, no matter how you say I'm your big brother, if you don't know how to respect your brother, then I don't mind letting you know. Seeing that Andre, who was at odds with him, began to stand up against him again, Andrew, who had already had enough of him, said angrily.
"Is it just your strength as a viscount?" Hearing Andrew's words, the mockery on Andrei's face became even stronger.
"You ......" Andrew, who was choked by Andre's words, was speechless, it is true that compared to the strength of Count Andrei, the strength of his own viscount, the other party can not be taken into account at all.
Seeing his two children arguing constantly, John III enjoyed the situation, only in this way could they compete with each other, improve their strength, and strengthen the strength of the Loufans family. And their position will be more stable.
However, no matter how fierce the quarrel is, there must be a degree, and when the quarrel between Andre and Andrew grows more and more serious, John III knows that it is time for him to speak out.
"Hmph!" With a cold snort, a sound wave directly penetrated the eardrums of all the vampires present, and seeing the painful expressions of everyone next, John III said majestically: "Could it be that the great Louvans family would be afraid of a small trap?"
Seeing his father's already cloudy face, the two twin brothers, Andrew and Andre, understood that only by listening to their father's words now would they not usher in the wrath of thunder.
"Andrew, Andre, the two of you with three barons and twenty blood food puppets, you must get the blood source crystal back to me, as long as I successfully advance to the marquis, then our family can marry with the thirteen clans, and the two of you also have no partner!"
After that, the two brothers, Andre and Andrew, began to prepare to take their men to the village of Butz to snatch the Blood Crystal in Carl's hand.
When there were no more vampires in the halls of Notda, a frail bat that flew trembling landed in the palm of John III's hand. "William, you've done a good job, and when I get that Blood Crystal, I'll help you recover your physical body. So now you tell me, is that man really the legendary vampire killer - Baker Rusmu?"
The bat that is already weak and could die at any moment is William Lufans, who escaped from Carl's hands. Carl, who thought he would kill William, didn't know that vampires had a special ability, that is, as long as all the bats that vampires turned into were not killed, then just vampires could rely on bloodsucking to recover, but such recovery would take a long, long time.
By the time he arrived at Baker's room, William had already sensed a strong aura in the room, and just in case, William had split a bat to hide in the vampire bats. As a result, William really kicked the iron plate.
Feeling the sound wave from William, the smile on John III's face became brighter and brighter, and now he was almost unable to control the blood power tumbling in his body. As long as you catch the vampire killer-werewolf Baker, then don't say that one blood source crystal, even ten, twenty are possible, after all, the generosity of Bronhe, one of the thirteen clans, is well-known among the vampire clan.
As long as the vampire killer Baker, who killed the heir of the Bronher, can be dedicated to the Blanch, then it is not impossible to become the Earl of the Blanch.
"Very good, very good, William, you have brought me such good news, how can I thank you? Oh, by the way, let you and I become one!" In the trembling of the weak bat, John III pinched the bat in the palm of his hand to death, and then swallowed the crystal nucleus that had turned into blood essence.
After doing all this, John III turned into a ball of bats and flew out of the castle and into the dim sky in the distance.
Although the house was dilapidated, it did not affect Carl's sleep, after all, it was worse than the wilderness? After dealing with it for one night, when it was still dark, Carl woke up, and at this time, Baker's wife, Anne, had already gotten up and prepared breakfast for Baker and Carl in that small space.
Smelling the aroma emanating from the kitchen, Carl smiled and began to wave his staff, restoring the house to normal. Although he is not a mage, he is still very proficient in some basic small spells, for which Carl still has to thank his dead ghost father, if he hadn't forced himself to learn magic at that time, then Carl would only be able to look at the roof with the skylight open and worry.
"I didn't expect you to be a mage, little brother, I thought you were a thief based on your physique!" Beck, who returned from outside the house, couldn't help but be a little surprised to see his house restored.
"It's just a few simple little spells. Karl smiled, then sat down across from Baker, then turned his head to look at little Arthur, who was still sleeping, and said, "I don't know when little Arthur will wake up? ”
"To be honest, I don't know very much either. Baker scratched his head and said, "Little brother, don't believe it. Because when the werewolf awakens for the first time, it will be on the night of the full moon, and at the same time, the surrounding area will be full of aconitum grass. But there is not a single aconitum in the village of Butz, and there are still ten days left until the night of the full moon. However, the werewolf energy in Arthur's body is already very strong, and there is a possibility of awakening at any time. ”
"So, no matter what, Arthur will wake up in ten days?"
"So, are there any powerful vampire clans around here, and besides, Uncle Baker, why don't you leave here with Arthur and his sister-in-law?" Karl asked.
"The reason I didn't choose to leave Butz Village is because werewolves will not be accepted by you humans wherever they go. I hope Arthur can live happily in this small village where he doesn't know his identity. The more important reason is that there is only one vampire family within a radius of a hundred miles. If I leave here with Arthur and Anne, I don't know what kind of enemies I'm going to face?" Baker explained.
"I see, so before Arthur awakens, let's prepare well!"
In Carl and Baker's expectations, the attack of the vampires should be within ten days, although it is impossible to determine the exact time, but only one day is enough for Carl to prepare a trap for the arrival of the vampire army.
If only one or two vampires are coming, it will not be a problem for Carl and Baker's strength. Even in the face of the more powerful Marquis vampire, Carl believes that he will be able to defeat it with the cooperation of him and Uncle Baker. But when vampires go out, they always have blood golems, which are toxin-infected puppets after being sucked by the blood in the vampire's body, and they will only obey the vampire's master until they die.
Moreover, the vampires are followed by vampire bats that cover the sky. The vampire baron he killed yesterday was because the enemy didn't control the vampire bats to harass Carl, otherwise, it would have been really difficult for Carl to kill him cleanly.
Based on this, Carl prepared a lot of things that vampires hated, such as silver, garlic, etc., and placed a lot of wooden stakes around the room.
When he looked at the fortress-like wooden house that he had arranged, Carl smiled, and the gloom that had been suppressed in his heart dissipated a lot. Now just wait for the full moon night to come, in the bloom of the aconitum grass, and watch Arthur awaken his werewolf nature and repel the vampire attacks.
On the night of the third day of the attack, the sky was exceptionally clear, and there was not a single dark cloud obscuring the sky. Selene, Pandia, and Visya, the three sisters, also did not hesitate to show their beauty in the moonlight.
Carl and the Baker family sit around the fire, and Carl pulls out a storybook and tells little Arthur fairy tales. Baker and Anna hugged each other, happily looking at Carl and Arthur in front of them.
"Brother Carl, Brother Carl, have you ever seen a vampire? Today Sister Jenny said that she had seen a vampire, isn't it scary, with big fangs, and then it bites?" Arthur asked innocently.
"I've not only seen it, but I've killed it?" Carl grimaced, "Hahaha, big brother Carl, Jenny said that vampires are pretty, not as ugly as you!" Arthur said with a grin. "Hey, you kid. Carl pretended to be angry and wanted to hit Arthur.
Just as Carl and Arthur were in a fight, a dark cloud drifted in the distance in the clear night sky, and then the dark cloud drifted towards Baker's cabin at great speed.
