Chapter 18: Appearing

The object stopped by the one-handed sword had a human-like posture, but its protruding canine teeth, bat-like wings growing from its back, and its beast-like limbs with long hairs indicated that it was definitely not human. As for why the old man said the word vampire all at once, in fact, there are also certain cultural differences. Just as he used to call elves forest spirits, as the name suggests, they are spirits in the forest, and vampires do not refer to specific blood beings, but to all monsters with the ability to suck the blood of living creatures.

Therefore, strictly speaking, it is not a real vampire who attacks the group at night, but even this blood-eating monster is not an opponent that ordinary people can fight. Seeing that his sneak attack was fruitless, the batwing monster let out a low roar at the woman, and then took a few steps backwards, disappearing into the darkness.

The young man really reacted to what was happening at this moment, he turned around and wanted to thank the person who saved him, but the slightly hoarse female voice behind him was unusually serious, "Be careful, haven't left yet." ”

The other two members of the convoy made the same judgment, each armed with a weapon, guarding the darkness around them. However, the night is inherently dark, and it is dangerous for people who cannot see in unrelated environments. "Round the fire! Circle the thing by the fire!"

"Suddenly, suddenly" The two horses kicked the ground under their feet restlessly by the fire, and in many ways, animals are more sensitive than people. And what about people with some of the animal features on their bodies? The furry ears are shaking, as if to capture information that is not visible in the air. She lowered her body, her unsheathed one-handed sword hidden in her robes, making it impossible to guess the angle and manner of her next attack. Now the rest of the convoy had finally noticed something unusual about the woman, but the situation was so precarious that no one asked about her anomaly.

"Oops, more than one. "The middle-aged man, with his keen insight, sensed the disturbing fact that the monster that had just attacked them was not alone.

Tongues of fire dance in the center of the circle of four people, like an audience waiting for the show to begin. It didn't wait too long. "Gaha!" a piercing scream accompanied by a fishy smell of air, and two humanoid monsters with bat-winged bats roared at the old man on the left and right. It seems that they are taking him as a breakthrough among the four.

To the monster's surprise, the old man did not show a look of fear in the face of the enemy attacking from the night, his expression was silent and serious, with a faint sadness, which was the longest he had shown when he was driving his horse. "Whew!" the whistling whip at the end poked out like a letter from the mouth of a viper, and at once wrapped itself around the ankle of the monster on the left. "Hmph!" Before the entangled monster could react, the old man exerted his strength from his waist and spun his body like a fisherman's rod, completely destroying the balance in flight, and the monster screamed and fell heavily from the air to the ground, leaving a clear mark on the dirt. But there is more than one monster that can attack, the old man wanted to use the entangled monster to smash another monster, but this whip is not a chain in the end, and he does not have the strength and strength of his youth, after getting one of the monsters to the ground, the other also rushed to the front with teeth and claws.

"Old fellow!" the young man heard the noise behind him, but he could not help anything other than roar, for in the darkness in front of him, a monster running on all fours like a beast was not far away. Inhale, exhale. This time, breathing was extremely slow for him, and the prism hammer in his hand had never been so heavy, after all, he was not a warrior, and the method of wielding weapons was only learned casually from people, and the usual training was not strict. He raised his right hand with all his might, hoping to smash the monster's head with the prism hammer, but it was too slow, his hand was raised too slowly, the hammer was raised too slowly, and even the sparks blowing from behind him floated too slowly. His enemies, on the other hand, were so fast that before he could see the appearance of his hometown, it was only pitch black.

"Poof!" sounded like a balloon filled with water exploding from the campfire. Something wet splashed onto the floor, leaving unreal marks. "Ahh The blade of the axe tore through the monster's arms, and while a single slash was not enough to cut off its hard arm, three consecutive slashes in the same position nearly broke the monster's left hand.

"Ahh But he was surprised to find that the monster that had been so badly wounded neither screamed nor roared, and not even a drop of blood was coming out of its wound! But the middle-aged man was no longer able to swing the tomahawk, and the four blows just now were swung by him with all his strength and anger, and his arms could no longer be raised under the influence of the shock.

In an instant, three of the four people around the campfire had died. Only the robed lady was left fighting, and the weapon in her hand seemed to have magical power, and the monster limbs that the battle axe had to slash repeatedly to cut off, were as smooth as butter under the blade of the sword in her hand, which was jokingly called an ornament. And her skills are by no means as simple as those holding weapons, she has undergone strict weapon training, whether it is reaction speed or the defuse and counterattack of monster attacks. The monster that attacked her was stabbed in the heart with a sword twenty strokes later.

"Slap, slap, slap" sporadic applause reveals arrogance and disdain. The humanoid monsters stopped their actions amid applause, and knelt respectfully on one knee, and a figure in a gown stepped into the range of the firelight. It was a young man with blond hair and blue eyes, pale skin and two fangs that were slightly outstretched to prove his identity. This person is the real vampire. And the humanoid batwing monster that has just appeared is just his servants.

"I really didn't expect to see such an extraordinary presence of you in this remote place. "The vampire's blue eyes don't reflect the fire, they are cloudy and deep.

The girl with ears like beasts clenched her teeth, if she still had the ability to escape in the face of those low-level blood servants, the opponent in front of her was beyond the scope of what she could fight. However, she is not without a chance, and there are at least two situations that can get her out of this predicament.

"Why, you seem to be hostile to me. Bloodclan said as he continued to approach the fire, his delicate leather shoes tampling into the stains on the ground, "Do you care that I kill these mortals? ”
