What Cao Yuan said was too amazing, especially in today's situation, and for a while, it attracted the attention of all of us, and we all looked in the direction that Cao Yuan pointed to.

Not to mention, there seems to be a village over there, but the distance is a little too far, and the view is not very real, just a few of us patronized to see the energy light curtain that shrouded this ruined city, where would we notice so far away? In the end, it was Cao Yuan's sharp eyes, and he actually saw that head.

It should be the south of the city under our feet, there is a big mountain, because the buildings of this city have basically collapsed into ruins, so there is no particularly tall building in the whole city, which can block people's vision, and you can see the outline of the mountain from afar, but it is a pity that it is too dark over there, and you can only see the shadow of a mountain, on top of the mountain, there seem to be some buildings, and there is still smoke curling there, it is obviously a village, and eighty percent of them still live there!

"Looks like it's where the vampires live?"

Zhang Bowen made such a guess and said bluntly: "This place is closed, dark, and not suitable for normal creatures to live here, I think only those vampires will stay in this kind of place, right?" ”

Come to think of it, it seems that this is the most likely!

I nodded, and said directly: "It doesn't matter if it's not, let's go over and see it first, anyway, this ruin is too big, if we really look for it inch by inch, I'm afraid we can't find the sword of victory even if we're tired to death, it's better to find a suspicious target and start directly, if it's really the nest of the vampires, maybe it's a good thing for me to say, they've been dormant here for a day or two, maybe they've been dormant here, and they must know very well about this place, if there's still alive on that side, Catch it and ask carefully, maybe you can get news that will help us! ”

"Well, that's all it can be done today, and what Raphael said when he fled always makes me very uneasy."

Zhang Bowen pondered for a moment, then nodded.

With the idea and strategy set, we will not stay here any longer, and will go straight to the south.

Along the way, of course, we have carefully explored the situation of the city, but unfortunately, nothing has been found, the city has really become a ruin, not to mention living creatures, there are no ghosts, this road is full of ruins, only a large number of metals have been found, but most of them have decayed into shape, in fact, they are some fragments, it seems that these metals should have been weapons before, it is estimated that our metal detector should have reacted violently, it should be these weapons!

It looks like an ancient battlefield here, which makes me more convinced that I am not looking for the wrong place, this should be the site of the Eastern Empire in the past, according to the letter written by the monarch of the Eastern Empire to King Arthur, in the end, the entire Eastern Empire has become a battlefield, which is somewhat consistent with the situation here, but unfortunately no bones were found, which is the only place that makes me more wondering.

The time of the existence of the Eastern Empire is undoubtedly in the fourth civilization era before the Paleolithic Age, which is too far away, and because of the geological reasons on this side of the Alps, there are no bones left, which is normal, but if it is a large-scale death, not even a single bone can be left, is it a little wrong? Even a bone fossil of a finger bone should be left behind, clean and clean, but it makes people suspicious!

Later, Cao Yuan made a speculation that dispelled the doubts in my heart.

Cao Yuan believes that this is undoubtedly an ancient battlefield, but ...... The definition of the battlefield is not just the place where the fighting broke out, generally speaking, the place where the white-hot fierce battle broke out between the two sides belongs to the battlefield, and the retreat route of one side also belongs to the battlefield, which is difficult to define, and Cao Yuan believes that the place where we are currently located should be the place where the army of the Eastern Empire retreated in a hurry after the defeat!

It is not difficult to make such a conclusion, and it requires careful care.

Along the way, Cao Yuan carefully observed the fragments of those weapons, and found that those weapons should be long weapons similar to spears, these weapons pointed in roughly the same direction after being discarded, and the soldiers were all facing the mountain in the south, which was not like a situation left during the battle! The fierce battle is a very fierce battlefield, where the corpses are everywhere after the battle, the grievances are not dispersed, and the weapons are also disorganized, and only escaping can leave such signs!

According to Cao Yuan's speculation, after the defeat of these soldiers of the Eastern Empire, they retreated all the way to the south, and in the process of retreating, they discarded their weapons, resulting in the scene we are currently seeing, as for the dead...... Maybe they weren't caught up by the pursuers at that time, so they didn't die much!

Then, according to all this, Cao Yuan finally made such a speculation - it is very likely that the soldiers of the Eastern Empire fought fiercely with the enemy in the north at the beginning, and only fled here after the defeat, because when people are afraid, they will only turn around and flee one hundred and eighty degrees in panic!

In other words, the battlefield where the fierce war broke out between the Eastern Empire and the original invaders is in our north!!

Then Cao Yuan asked me if I should turn around and go back, first go to the battlefield to search for the whereabouts of the Sword of Victory, after all, the Sword of Victory is the most likely to be left on the most tragic battlefield of the battle, because King Arthur is a king, the former founder of the Twin Kingdoms, where a person like him is, morale must be inspired, and he will definitely fight the enemy to the death, and whether he is from the perspective of identity or position, it is basically impossible to escape, so, go to the north, where there has been a great war that has caused the entire army of the Eastern Empire to be defeated, The Sword of Victory is a little more likely to be there.

I thought about it, but in the end I refused, I still went to the south to find out the situation first, and my reason told me that the sword of victory must not be in the north, and the reason was actually simpler, because the war that broke out in the Eastern Empire was not a local war, but a war of extermination!! But any war of extermination, at the last moment, will inevitably be accompanied by the awakening of the exterminated party, such a war is absolutely impossible to have such a situation as a rout, the soldiers are not stupid, people are coming to destroy the country and exterminate the species, you retreat is also death, not retreat or die, how to choose? It must be a bloody battle to the end! Therefore, based on all this, I conclude that the place we are in front of us should be the battlefield in the early days of the war, when the people of the Eastern Empire have not yet been awakened by the blood of their clansmen, and they still have illusions about survival and peace, so they will flee when they can't fight. And when King Arthur joined the war, I am afraid that it was already the end of the war, maybe the Eastern Empire had already been destroyed at that time, and the place where he fought could not be the battlefield in our north.

Therefore, I went to the mountain in the south to see what was going on, so I persuaded Cao Yuan and them to speed all the way to the south, and it took about twenty or thirty hours to finally get out of the ruins of the city and come to the foot of the mountain.

When I got closer, I saw that there was indeed a village on it, and there seemed to be people in the village, and there was smoke inside, a little fire, and it seemed to be on fire!

"Look over there, it's all a nest of bats!"

Suddenly, Zhang Bowen went all the way to the side of the mountain and said, "That's right, this should be the vampire's lair!" ”

Raphael's lair is right in front of me, where will I be polite? greeted Zhang Bowen and a few of them, and went up the mountain with a knife.

The place where these vampires are entrenched is actually a place similar to a medieval castle in Europe, and the entire vampire lair is surrounded by extremely tall walls, and by the time a few of us arrived, the walls were full of vampires!

However, these vampires turned out to be old and weak, and even some vampires with extremely short stature stood on the head of the city with weapons that did not match their size at all, obviously children, seeing us coming, it was like a great enemy!

I can feel that these old and weak women and children stationed on the city wall are very weak, almost no combat effectiveness, and after a little thought, I can understand why this situation is happening!

If there is no accident, it should be Hathaway who took away all the young men in the vampire clan! When I was fighting those vampires before, I had already noticed that among those vampires, there were men and women, but without exception, all of them were young and middle-aged, which should be all the elite strength of the vampire clan, but unfortunately, all of them were wiped out in the battle at the entrance of the thief cave, and they became the nourishment of the man-eating Gu raised by Lao Bai, which led to the situation that there was no one stationed in the vampire clan.

Then, a few of us came here, and Yuan used the heart of Atlantis to prop up the light source, which must be very dazzling, and naturally alarmed these vampires, so they simply stood at the head of the city, looking like they were going to fight us to the death!

At this time, as soon as we came, the old and weak women and children at the head of the city suddenly became nervous, and they were slaughtered in an instant!

"Damn, is it possible that you have to do something to give birth to a son without an asshole today?"

Lao Bai came to my side and muttered, "Xiaotian, what should I do?" Don't...... Let's slaughter again? ”

Actually, I was also embarrassed, the situation in front of me was not what I expected before I came!

If the people above the city are all young and middle-aged, perhaps, I will really attack him immediately and kill him all over the field, at least, let Raphael have no one to use even if he retaliates, but now...... All of them are old and weak, women and children, weak and pitiful, even if they want to serve Raphael, they are powerless, and they are basically no threat to me, I will kill them again...... Isn't it a little too perverted?

But I really need to conquer this people and get to know this place!

I held the knife in one hand, and my murderous intent was soaring, and I pinched the "one thought" in the other, and kept warning myself in my heart not to kill innocents indiscriminately, and to accumulate some virtue for Dun'er, and I was entangled for a while!

"Excuse me, why are the few people from the city here?"

Suddenly, an old voice came from the city and alarmed me, and when I looked up, I saw an old and weak woman and child lined up at the head of the city, and it was she who spoke to me, and it was actually in Chinese.

I'm a little puzzled, when did Chinese become so popular, why do these vampires say it?

However, I did not disdain lies, and said bluntly: "I am your enemy, and your king Raphael and her men have all been slaughtered by me!" ”

On the top of the city, those old and weak women and children suddenly changed color, some noisy, and some wanted to rush up to me to take revenge, but they were stopped by the old woman, and then the vampire old woman was silent for a long time, and then finally asked me: "So, you have come here to cut the grass and eradicate the roots?" ”

I didn't know what to say for a while, and after a long time, I finally slowly let go of the knife I was holding, and said, "Originally, it was to cut the grass and eradicate the roots, but now...... I don't want to kill innocents anymore, I just want to ask about something, and then we'll leave! ”

"Alas, what a sin...... She had long persuaded Raphael to follow the ancestral teachings and abide by the primeval covenant, otherwise it would inevitably lead to great disaster, but she did not listen, and finally led our clan on the road of destruction......"

The old woman suddenly raised her head and sighed, and then waved her hand fiercely: "That's it, open the door, let them in!" ”
