Chapter Eighty-Eight: Betrayal

Under the frightened gaze of everyone in the caravan, Li Ang spoke: "Do you want to die or do you want to live?"

In this era, the reputation of the witcher is not related to the "paladin" and "savior", especially the way Leon appears, which is more like a demon than a demon.

They hurriedly said, "Of course I want to live." ”

Leon said, "If you want to live, don't tell anyone that I killed this vampire." ”

The people were stunned, and a man who looked like a leader boldly asked, "If we don't say it, how will Your Excellency receive the reward for exterminating demons?"

Li Ang said coldly: "You don't need to understand why, just do it." ”

"Yes!"

He glanced around, and no one dared to look at him, and this feeling was unexpectedly good.

At least it's trouble-free.

As for why they didn't mention that the vampire was hunted by themselves, it was because when Leon heard the screams and tried to leave the city to rescue.

Not only did the City Guard not have the idea of helping, but they looked at themselves as if they were looking at a dead man.

And the count in the mouth of the female vampire made him faintly have a guess - perhaps, the one who made a deal with the demon and became a vampire happened to be the lord of Transylvania!

But there's another problem here.

If the lord here is a vampire himself, how can he allow the church to issue a commission to hunt demons?

He felt it compelled to find the church first to figure out the context of the incident.

"Pack up the mess and go with me into the city, and if the guards ask, say that the vampire has slaughtered and left with enough to eat. ”

"Yes!"

......

The town guards, heavily armed, gathered around the fence and whispered.

The city was brightly lit, but they didn't seem to be very alert, and they faintly revealed a little leisure.

Suddenly, the sound of horses' hooves was heard.

They followed the sound and looked at it, and couldn't help but be surprised: "This guy actually came back alive?"

Li Ang rode a horse, hurried over, stopped at the gate of the city, and said in horror: "There is really a vampire, she has killed many people, and in just one bite, that person will become a dry corpse, it is really terrible." ”

The town guards looked at each other and smiled, and said loudly, "You are so lucky that you were able to escape from the hands of the vampire, and God must be protecting you." ”

The caravan had just returned from the carriage in a messy manner, and all of them were also disgraced and full of fear.

Surprisingly, the guards did not interrogate them too much, and easily let them into the city, confiscating even the entrance fee, just looking at them, as if they were looking at a group of dead people.

As they hurried to the inn, Leon could vaguely hear a guard behind him whispering, "These outsiders should be enough for those vampires to eat for a long time." ”

"It's a good thing they're here, otherwise it would have been our turn to worship the Blood Diet again this month. ”

Leon frowned, sure enough, these guards and vampires were not complicit, at least there was some kind of tacit understanding.

First stayed at the inn with the caravan, and waited until late at night, when there was silence in all directions, and Leon quietly left the room.

......

The churches of Transylvania are still magnificent, even though they are on the border between Poland and the HRE, on the periphery of ecclesiastical rule.

But there is no doubt that both the HRE and Poland, which consisted of the West Slavs, that is, the Venetti, were purely Catholic states.

Poland, in particular, was much more religious than the two rebels, HRE and France.

Leon sneaked into the church quietly, and he bypassed several black-robed priests who were keeping vigil and went straight to the depths of the church.

His beastly sense of smell came out of the way, and he finally locked on to a target whose aura was far more powerful than that of ordinary people.

Tuk Tuk –

There was a knock on the door.

A response came from inside: "It's so late, who's looking for me?"

"The Witcher. ”

The door was quickly opened, and the person who came was a middle-aged man who bowed his head, and he lowered his voice and said, "Come in, you haven't been discovered by others, right?"

"Nope. ”

Leon walked in the door, looked around and asked, "Is that the commission you issued to us?"

"Yes, I'm Alonso, are you?"

"My name is Leon, a witcher of the Dante school. ”

The Dante School?

A hint of doubt flashed in Alonso's eyes, but instead of asking, he said, "Are you sure you can hunt the vampires in the sequence?"

Li Ang sneered, "Are you not sure that I will send you to death?"

Alonso sneered, "That's good. ”

Leon asked, "Are you from this church?"

"Director of the cymbals. ”

There is no parish here, and the top leader of the entire church is the head of the chapel, the cymbal.

Li Ang said again: "I have some questions, I hope you can tell them truthfully, otherwise, I will give up this demon hunting commission." ”

Alonso hurriedly said, "You just speak." ”

"First of all, I killed a female vampire when I came, and she said that the Count would avenge her, who was that Count?"

Alonso's expression changed slightly: "Oh no, you hunted and killed the mistress raised by the piercing uncle, you must have already scared the snake!"

Leon asked, "Piercing Uncle?"

"This is the lord of Transylvania, Count Dracula, the son of Archduke Vlad, who once joined the Dragon Knights of the Empire, and liked to pierce prisoners of war with wooden stakes through the upper and lower mouths of the body during battle, because of this brutality, so people are called Earl Piercing. ”

Leon said in a deep voice, "So the lord here, Count Dracula, is that mid-sequence vampire?"

"That's right!"

Leon asked, "Then why can the vampires tolerate you if you have extraordinary abilities, and why don't you simply invite someone from the Inquisition to deal with Count Dracula, but instead choose to issue a commission to us witchers?"

Alonso was silent for a moment, then sighed: "Actually, I worked with Count Dracula, and the previous director, the cymbal, was killed by him and me, so that I took over this position. ”

Li Ang nodded: "This can also be explained, you are worried that the people in the inquisition will find out about your relationship and implicate you, right?" ”

Alonso was ashamed, "Yes." ”

Leon smiled, "It's just that since you have cooperated with Count Dracula, why did you betray him?"

Alonso smiled bitterly: "If it were a moral condemnation, you would not believe it, but in fact it is true, I really cannot bear to be plundered by more and more of God's people, and I can only do nothing, even listen to the prayers of the believers, and have to advise them not to resist." ”

Li Ang nodded: "I don't believe in anything, human nature is complicated, this is easy to understand." ”

Alonso sighed, "I can't atone for my sins, I only want to get rid of this evil demon and restore peace to the people of Transylvania." ”

Leon said, "How many vampires are there under Count Dracula?When will he leave the castle?Will he come to you now that he has been scared?Tell me everything you know, including the way this Count Dracula behaves, and I need to make a careful hunt plan with that." ”
