Chapter 27: The Vampire Incident (1)

The moon is bright and the stars are sparse, the lonely shadow is sparse, and there is a soft sound of "click, click, click" on the road.

The map in the bag has been engraved in my mind, and it won't take long to get to Faulcles, and if you follow the path of Faucles, you should soon reach the border of Dugu City, and after that, you can take a boat to Valhacs Castle.

Why don't you go to Phocles for some retouching?

I don't know if it will be affected by the wanted warrant.,That's the town that only appeared in the DLC furnace plot that was added later.,I don't know if the original plot.,Will the killing order be added to it.。

The man's brain on the horse was running like a fly, and the huge stars in the sky shone on the earth, even at night, which did not affect the realization in the slightest.

Occasionally, a bird flew by, making a piercing chirp as if it were about to tear the night apart.

The man had a delicate face, and he grabbed the horse stiff with one hand, but fortunately, in the copy of the Holy Grail War, he had already trained his riding skills to the extreme, and even if he ran wildly for a day, he would not feel the slightest tiredness.

There was a slight rustling sound on both sides of the road, as if a wild beast was lurking nearby, and the slight noise made the man on the horse frown slightly.

"Stop, leave the horse behind."

Suddenly such a sound sounded on both sides of the road, and faster than this, it was an unsuspecting cold arrow, whoosh, pierced the night sky, and the man on the horse shook, and the man had disappeared above the horse's back.

"Shot."

Someone cheered, and there was no longer a figure on the horse's back, although the horse was still running forward. But the speed is already slowly decreasing.

It's a group of travelers. Because Alduin in the opening game cost them the captain. Groups of three or five gathered together, and there were more than a dozen people.

Because without the captain's consent to lead, their purpose has become a little confused, and there is not even a single one in them who has played this game.

In such a situation, it is impossible for others to give them any knowledge related to the game, and they don't know how to proceed with the first stage of the mission, so they blindly walk around the wilderness for a day.

I'm still a little hungry. Originally, he wanted to hunt two beasts to satisfy his hunger, but he met a giant so that he could not die.

The two travelers were killed instantly, shattered by the bones kicked by the giant who was about ten meters tall, and from then on, they set their sights on pedestrians.

Lin Xiu traveled alone, and there were horses, so he obviously became their target.

With the bow and arrows picked up in the wild, there is a person who is also proficient in this way, and the direction of strengthening coincides.

"Quick, catch up with that horse. Look at what's in his backpack, maybe we've caught a great character. ”

Someone rushed forward with such joy.

The moment when the horses are about to get closer. He only felt a flower in front of him, and a figure shot up, so fast that he didn't react.

"Snort"

Blood splattered, and horses neighed.

The figure did not stagnate in the slightest, everything flowed smoothly, as if it had been rehearsed hundreds of times in advance, and after a knife, the body momentum did not decrease, and it rolled on the ground and rose up.

"Stick your fingers, run."

I don't know which brother remembered the lines of the robber in the movie, and actually shouted black words, but only halfway through the words, his throat was cut by a long knife.

The man's face was already very close, and he saw that it was a very delicate face, but there was a look in his eyes that he had never seen before.

Like what?

It is like a hunter habitually aiming at his prey, like a butcher numbly slaughtering cattle and sheep, with a trace of tiredness and a trace of helplessness.

This kind of look, it takes how many people you have killed to practice.

He couldn't imagine it anymore, because his brain had gone into shock and died.

"Don't kill me."

There was a sound behind him, and the man had apparently hidden in the side of the horse, giving the false impression that he had fallen off the horse, a skill they had never heard of.

Lin Xiu had already double-wielded two long knives, and the silver light was flashing, like a tiger entering a flock.

Chopping melons and chopping vegetables, wandering in the encirclement of more than a dozen people, each photo, is the disappearance of a life, two long knives picked up, like a windmill, spinning non-stop.

"Poof"

The last figure who escaped was shot to the ground again by a flying knife, and at a distance of more than ten meters, the knife in Lin Xiu's hand came out of his hand and stabbed him in the back of the heart with great precision.

Until death, that person still didn't understand, what kind of existence they were preparing to ambush, the strongest eight senses?

The strength is compressed to less than 20 percent, and I am afraid that only such a powerful existence can complete such a kill.

"A bunch of poor ghosts."

Lin Xiu sighed helplessly, the inside of their backpacks was much cleaner than their faces, and sure enough, these scattered travelers didn't have any preparation at all.

The corpses don't need to be disposed of, there are so many beasts in the sky, and it won't be long before the vultures or ice wolves will devour their corpses, or maybe they will be turned into a puppet by some necromancer, none of which has anything to do with him.

Turning over and getting on the horse, Lin Xiu gently patted the horse's mane.

The horse was quite strong, but it had been a long day's journey, and its legs were trembling slightly, and it was certainly not an option to go on like this.

It seems that I can only go to Phocles to try, after all, it is a small town, even if there are some guards, Lin Xiu alone is not worried that he will be surrounded and unable to escape.

With his current skills, as long as it is not surrounded by Bajue, I am afraid it will be difficult for anyone to leave him.

"Eagle ...... The eagle is one of the nine totems of the ancient Nords.

The nine totems correspond to the nine gods, visually the traditional Eight Holy Spirits plus the master of Songad, Shure, the god of the underworld. “

Two teenagers walked in the snowy city, one of them was humbly taught, and the other was talking with his head up, as if he knew the world very well.

"Second brother. You know a lot. ”

The monk's face was adoring. Already forgotten just yesterday. How did this benevolent brother cheat him in the tavern of the mare banner.

"That's, hahaha, monk, follow your second brother, no, let your kid take me to the ditch, follow me. It will definitely give you unexpected gains. ”

Zhang Yi continued to fool the monk with the appearance of a high-ranking monk, and the monk even prepared a small notebook to record all that Zhang Yi said.

"Then what does this eagle represent...... Gina Les? "Ginares is the Spirit of the air, the wind, and the sky, and seems to have a relationship with the eagle.

Recalling Zhang Yi's introduction to the nine animal totems just now, Liu Yi seemed to have his own summary.

"Yes, there is a legend that on the Throat of the World, the Heights of Hosga, the sky created humans with its own breath, so the Nords often call themselves the children of the sky.

Monk, you are very talented. ”

Zhang Yi gently patted the monk's back with a teachable expression.

Liu Yi was already full of curiosity about some things of faith, so after hearing some of Zhang Yi's explanations of this world from last night. I was deeply infatuated, and the two were arranged by C.C. to find out the news today. Zhang Yi took this opportunity to show off.

"Let's just talk about this snow man, this is a very charming city, I have heard a romantic legend about snow man, it fascinates me."

"When Lord Xueman built the city, the warriors under his command had three white horses, and when they marched, they looked white and full of momentum. At that time, the lord of Snowman named the city "The White Tide" in Old German, as a way to show off the elite of the cavalry under the lord's command. “

Zhang Yi talked endlessly, but was interrupted by the sound of a bell behind him.

"Haha, young man, if you let this partner next to you continue to talk, I will feel a sense of pride in the old man."

Zhang Yi turned his head a little angrily, and saw a Nord man with a forging hammer in his hand.

The two of them had unconsciously walked to the side of the Sky Furnace, and naturally there were a lot of people gathered here, including many travelers.

In response to the dragon slaying order of the Lord of Snowman, they desperately need a weapon at their disposal, but the old bastard named Earront, who is in charge of the Sky Furnace, does not seem to be accommodating.

He only serves the people of his comrades-in-arms, which has to be said to be very infuriating news.

Because of the large amount of heat emitted from the furnace and coal pit next to him, the gray-haired uncle was dressed very coolly, except for the shoulder pads inlaid with iron sheets, the upper body was only crossed with two belts, and the developed muscles were exposed to the air, dotted with some scars, and he looked strong and hideous.

"I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you, because from what I remember here from birth to now, oh, I'm afraid it's been almost sixty years.

The naming of the city is actually not so complicated. The river that surrounds the city is called the White River, hence the name of the city, and the words 'white' and 'snow' are common in Old German, and later the name of the city became Xueman. ”

Uncle Earrent ruthlessly exposed Zhang Yi's lies, making his face red and white.

"Boy, if you have time to fool your friend, why don't you do me a favor, I'll pay you."

The uncle named Earlent didn't seem to see the dissatisfaction under Zhang Yi's eyes, and asked for help without care.

"Can I say no?

Of course, if your reward is full of temptation, such as one or two thousand gold coins, I can still consider it regardless of previous suspicions, and I understand the virtue of respecting the old and loving the young. “

"Haha, you kid, one or two thousand gold coins for you to help me run an errand?

Then I don't mind asking you to help me run to Dugu City, but unfortunately I don't have this plan yet, so let's do it, you help me take this weapon to Yuehuaskar and give it to the guy named Vilkas, if I'm not old and confused, you should know each other,

Yesterday I saw a friend of yours become his shield brother.

However, there is no reward for the gold coins, and I can teach you the art of building with both hands, and how far you can do it depends on your talent. “

The old man's words are humorous, which makes it easy for people to sprout a good impression.

"Che, who do you think you are, if that old fellow from Earlon says he's going to teach me some tricks, I can consider it."

Zhang Yi said with a disdainful face, obviously not caring about this temptation.

"It's terrible. How could that old guy ask a kid like you for help? There must be something wrong with his brain. “

Ulrant shook his head and smiled bitterly. But there was no angry look on his face.

"Whoosh"

Liu Yi only felt that a gust of wind seemed to be blowing in front of him, and when he turned his head to look, Zhang Yi had already run to Yuehuaskar with his weapon.

It was hard to understand when his teammate had such a speed.

Phorcles, to be precise, is more akin to a sprawling cemetery where many dead people are buried.

Lin Xiu slowly approached the town.

The town is located in a basin between two mountains, which seems to be a complement to the atmosphere of the cemetery. The weather here is set to drizzle from time to time.

There is a very heavy sense of depression.

The guards at the gate were not dressed in the standard uniforms of the Imperial Army, but in a different way, more like mercenaries hired by a lord.

"Adventurer, you're here for the vampire incident, too?

Hey, the position of a baron is tempting, but it has to be enjoyed.

Walking down this path, there are already a lot of adventurers gathered there, and I really want to see them after being sucked into dried corpses by vampires, it must be very cute.

Oh, good luck. “

This guard is clearly a chatter. Lin Xiu didn't even open his mouth, he had already told all the information that Lin Xiu wanted to know.

I saved a gold coin. Lin Xiu thought helplessly in his heart.

But vampires, this seems to coincide with the route he is about to choose, and as for the reward of the baron or something, he is really not interested.

Bringing the horse into the horse shop, in front of the tavern of Phocles, there were people who specialized in such services, Lin Xiu threw out a silver coin, and walked straight to the lord's house in Phocles.

"Listen, whoever catches that little vampire for me, I'll give him a baron, including the property of Guanhu Manor, and I'll give it to him as well.

It's so annoying, there is no night to sleep peacefully. “

The lord sat on his throne, his tone was already extremely irritable, and it was clear that the incident of this vampire had given him a great headache.

Lin Xiu had just entered the room at this time, and he had no clue about it at all, in front of him were more than two dozen adventurers, seeing Lin Xiu's entry, some snorted lightly, and some glanced at him with disdain.

At this time, the mechanical sound of the apostle sounded in Lin Xiu's mind.

"Baron Faucres Mission:

Kill a vampire or capture a vampire alive, complete the 'Lord Who Can't Sleep Properly' quest, and reward Baron Phocles with 800 points.

Help Vampire Quests:

Kill all witnesses, adventurers, and fail to complete the lord quest, and the city of Phocles cannot be re-entered, and you will be rewarded with 800 points.

Gain Vampire Favor to join the Vampire faction, Valhachi Castle. “

The hint of this quest turned out to be a two-way choice, it seems that the route of the Dawn Guard has been opened here, which means that the traveler can already choose the vampire camp, right?

Lin Xiu's mind was sorting out the relevant information, and it was obvious that this lord did not intend to send his private soldiers on this mission to capture vampires.

Obviously, if you make the second option, the difficulty factor will be higher, and the strength of the traveler is usually about the same, and if you complete the first mission, the difficulty factor may be much lower, and it will also be a reward of 800 points.

Then it should not be difficult for the traveler to kill a vampire as long as they are in a group.

"I heard it's a little vampire, hey, isn't it formed yet? If you just become a vampire, it seems that you will never grow up again. “

"How about raising a private pet? Raising a vampire Lori makes people tremble to think about. “

"Haha."

Travelers came out in groups, some went to the tavern to replenish food and drink, some had already started to find out the news, and some went to the blacksmith's shop, apparently searching for some crypt or something, wanting to strengthen the weapon, after all, this was the function that originally came with Skyrim.

Lin Xiu has always been alone, because he is alone, and no team is willing to accept people of unknown origin, not to mention that the biggest enemy of this game comes from these travelers.

Kill one and one less.

There were even people targeting him, especially Lin Xiu, who deliberately spent a few gold coins to order a bard's song after entering the tavern.

"Boss, I'd like to ask when the vampire was last seen, hmm, will she only come out at night?"

Lin Xiu threw out a few gold coins, and this generous gesture immediately won the favor of the boss, and he kept telling him about what had happened in the past two days.

A vampire, probably still a vampire who has not grown up, sneaks into the cemetery in the middle of the night every day, and what he wants to do is naturally imagine what he wants to do, which is to suck the blood of a new corpse.

Because she was still a vampire and had no strong companions, she didn't dare to attack any living person.

But this situation still aroused the alarm of Lord Phocles, who knows if this vampire will come to eat the living when it becomes stronger?

With this in mind, the lord issued an order to pursue the vampires, and sealed off several mountains and forests near Phocles.

The lack of manpower caused a huge headache for Lord Vercles, and he had to give the baron a reward to attract more adventurers to complete the task.

Thinking that the vampire had nowhere to hide recently, he should have been trapped in the nearby forest, and as more and more adventurers joined, it had been three nights since the vampire appeared in the night.

"Adventurer, the forests around here are quite complicated, and if you are willing to give you some extra gold, I don't mind being your guide."

Obviously, the income of the tavern in Phocles was not satisfactory to the owner, and he even started to think of other things, if there were more than twenty travelers traveling together, there should be no danger to his life.

"Thank you for your kindness, but I have a map, well, a very comprehensive map of Skyrim Province, look, all the mountains, forests, lakes and towns are clearly marked on this, so you don't have to worry about this, just point me out the approximate location."

Lin Xiu said with an innocent and complacent face, and showed the map to the boss, and the greedy eyes of those travelers behind him The boss didn't see it.

But because Lin Xiu refused to spend money to hire him, he also had some grudges in his psychology, so it would be good to let this idiot send him to death by himself, anyway, it wouldn't be any good to remind him.

It's a big piece of fat to the mouth, and the gold may be secondary, but a detailed map of the skyline is undoubtedly something that all travelers want to keep for themselves.

After some guidance from the tavern owner, Lin Xiu had a rough idea of where the vampire would appear, and after satisfying his bags, he rented a room to rest.

Both he and the horse needed to get enough sleep, after all, it was better for vampires to wait until dark to hunt them down.

And some of the other travelers had already gathered together, whispering, their eyes kept signaling to Lin Xiu's room, obviously, they had already aimed at this piece of fat, and at night, they were ready to enter the forest and kill him first.

The night came soon, and Lin Xiu cleaned up.

With the blessing of Lord Phocris, join the other travelers and head towards the forest. (To be continued......)
