Chapter 2

When I got home, everyone else was playing cards, only Frank wasn't there, and Mario asked me to join in, but I wasn't really interested in playing cards. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoAfter a while, everyone went to the largest nightclub in Goddess Bay.

Isabel and I went upstairs to the room, and the white moonlight filtered through the window, making the room feel extra quiet. Isabel sat down at the piano and played Beethoven's "Moonlight" again, and she played it so much more proficiently than the last time, and I was soon intoxicated by the music. At that moment, I fell into a fantasy, I seemed to be in the highest place of Elias with her facing the clear night sky, the moon rose from the mountains in the distance, and in an instant, the stars in the sky turned into countless white snowflakes and slowly fell from the sky, falling in every corner of the earth, growing countless crystal clear ice roses, they slowly bloomed, and then floated to the night sky; an ice rose floated into Isabel's hand, she gently blew on the ice rose, and the whole ice flower turned into scattered ice foam; suddenly, a biting cold wind blew in the snowy mountains, and those ice roses floating into the night sky were blown into ice foam。

The sound of the piano suddenly stopped, and I immediately woke up from my vision. "Why did it stop?" I asked.

Isabel hesitated, "I don't know the next paragraph very well, you can teach me." ”

"I'm here to teach you? No, I'm only interested in listening to music, but I can't play it, and I'm glad to hear you play a paragraph. ”

She walked to the window and looked out at the silent woods. I walked up behind her, wrapped my arms around her slender waist, my chest pressed against her back, and kissed her neck and hair. She put her arms around my neck. Looking at me with those clear and charming eyes, it seems to be able to see through my heart at a glance.

After a while, she faced the woods not far away. Seems a little absent-minded. "What's wrong with you?" I asked.

"Someone is coming. She said.

I instinctively looked out at the unusually quiet woods not far away, and saw a dark figure on the boulevard approaching me. The strange figure flickered in the moonlight piercing through the canopy, and he looked staggered, probably badly wounded, or fatal.

The man was getting closer and closer to our house, and as he walked, he suddenly fell. Never got up again. Isabel and I immediately jumped out of the window and came to the injured man, and we turned his body side up. When I looked closely, it was a face I knew all too well, and it was the face I once hated, and he turned out to be the Scat who betrayed us.

I was amazed. Why did he suddenly appear here, and why was he so embarrassed? He opened his eyes slightly. When he saw me, he almost fainted. But I didn't mean to hurt him, I really sympathized with him at the time and just wanted to help him.

"Don't be afraid, Scat, we'll help you. I said.

We found an arrow stuck in his spine, could it be that he had encountered a witcher? We helped him into the house and put him on the table. Isabel turned on the light and brought scissors, gauze, and plates. I gently cut his clothes open. And take off his shirt. The arrow was stuck right in his back. In desperation, I had to pull the arrow out of his bone with my hand, and the sudden pain forced him to scream and struggle until he passed out. Good thing it's just plain arrows. I tossed the arrow on the plate and asked Isabel to dispose of it.

"He's going to be fine, is he?" asked Isabel.

"He was only in a coma temporarily. I took a long breath and said, "The wound will heal soon." ”

We didn't crave the blood that flowed from Scat at the time. Not long after, Frank suddenly returned, and when he saw Scat lying on the table, he was surprised and annoyed and asked, "What's going on?" In a fit of rage, he revealed Bai Sen's bloody teeth, and his nails became sharp and long.

"He's hurt. I said.

"Kill him. He was upset that Isabel and I were healing Scate, "Why did you get him here too? Are you crazy?"

"We have to figure out what's going on. ”

"He is a member of the Evil Spirits, our enemy, and we must kill him. ”

"Maybe he's not a member of the Evil Spirit Party anymore. ”

"Are you sure he's not from the Evil Spirits?"

"Just speculation. Isabel chimed in.

Frank's eyes were fierce, "You're crazy. ”

Scat was woken up by us, and he squirmed in pain on the table.

"Alex, he's awake. Isabel said.

I hurried over to the frail Scatter. He still looked dazed, and I helped him to the couch, his lips squirmed, his eyes full of gratitude, and he said in a weak voice, "Alex, your father is so vicious. ”

"What, my father?" I asked. Could it be that my father has also come to Goddess Bay?" "You saw my father here?"

"If I hadn't been a fast runner, I probably wouldn't be talking to you here right now. ”

"It should be an honour to die at the hands of my father. Frank chimed in.

Scat then discovers that Frank is here, and he looks terrified, afraid that Frank will kill him. Frank looks like he's ready to fight.

"Alright. I immediately stopped Frank, "I'll take care of this here." ”

Frank eased his emotions a little, "I really don't have anything to say. Annoyed, he went to another room.

Scat breathed a sigh of relief, "I didn't expect him to come to the real thing." ”

"You look much better than you did just now. I said, "But you still need to rest." ”

"Why did you save me?"

"Are you a little late to ask?"

"Kill me, don't play mercy here. ”

"You really don't know how to repay the favor, we saved you, and you still say that we are false mercy. ”

"It's come to this, I have nothing to say, come on, kill me. ”

"I don't know what happened yet, why should I kill you?"

"We're not all the way at all. You can't tolerate me. ”

"What the hell do you want to do?"

"Your father was so vicious that his men killed all the members of the Kavazec family, and I was the only one left in the Wallace family. ”

I was shocked when I heard it. "Is there such a thing?"

Isabel also looked skeptical, "Did my father participate too?"

"What do you say?" said Scato's tone.

Isabel was overwhelmed, "I'm just asking." ”

"On that dark night, we were deliberating in an abandoned catacomb. Suddenly, the stone door of the tomb is blown open, and a group of unidentified vampires enter it, killing all the members of the meeting with grenades that radiate silver spikes and extremely lethal guns that explode. I was the only one who managed to escape through the secret tunnel. When the enemy had left, I returned to the tomb and found that our men had their hearts gouged out. More than 100 members of the Evil Ghost Party were all killed. ”

"How do you know it's Henks sent to kill you?"

"Those vampires are not the Underworld Society, but they have joined the ranks of the Underworld Society, and that organization is called the Corpse Thieves. ”

"What organization are the corpse robbers?" I asked curiously.

"They lived here before the founding of the U.S. Commonwealth, and they were also a vampire gang. They used to run to graves to steal corpses to satisfy their appetite. And use corpses to refine corpse oil, which is used as a medicine for 'corpse healing', and they are organized in an orderly manner to serve the Underworld Society, and belong to a team of the Underworld Society. ”

"What happened next?"

Unexpectedly, several body robbers suddenly returned to the tomb, probably to obtain important supplies from the Evil Spirits. They found me, I was accidentally hit by an arrow, and I managed to escape from the tomb in a desperate way. Jumping into the river, seeking to fend for himself. I don't know how long it took. When I woke up, I found myself on the riverbank, alone and aimlessly swimming to the Goddess Bay, where I met you after a few days of hiking. ”

"You're telling the truth, I can see that we could have gotten along, but you're on the wrong side. ”

Scat tried to get up and leave, but he didn't stand still, slammed the hard floor, and then insisted on getting up again, still looking weak. "We are originally two people, who let the Underworld Society have your father, he is an ancient blood spirit in the blood clan, he has the ability to decide everything, if he hadn't started that war thousands of years ago, this wouldn't have happened today. ”

"But this thing still happened, you can't change it, I can only listen to him, whoever made him is my father's, he gave me everything, I can't betray him. ”

"Yes, then you should help him kill me. ”

"Scart, for the sake of your life, I advise you to live in seclusion, never show your face, you go, your life and death are up to you. ”

"Kill me! What are you waiting for?

"Say whatever you want. ”

He gave me a crying smile, "Then don't regret it, I dare say that I can't get out of Goddess Bay alive, and when you see my body, you'll know where your father is." ”

Scat was about to get up to leave when I stopped him, "Wait, where's the body robber?"

He hesitated, "Corpse Thieves are actually an upgraded version of ordinary vampires, their survivability is greater than those ordinary vampires, and the level of the corpse robber leader is a little lower than that of the vampire elders. Your father is an ancient blood spirit, and his level and ability are naturally much higher than theirs, so he constantly throws temptations at them, giving them corpses, wars, killings, helping them expand their living space, and finally they make a contract with your father, because then they will get more corpses and wars. ”

"Are they also afraid of the sun?"

"I think so, they only come out at night, and today you saved my life, and I will not visit you to tell you, it is said that they are often seen in San Gustavo and Goddess Bay, but I advise you to find the body robbers of Goddess Bay first, because there is their leader here. He picked up his tattered clothes and staggered out the door. Isabel and I followed closely behind, neither of us wanted to drag him back, and we wanted him to find his own home, to live or die, to God.

I watched Scat disappear into the woods in the distance. The corpse snatchers will not spare everyone who betrayed my father, they will surely find Scat and let him die a terrible death. We quickly cleaned the equipment used to treat Scatter. And put it away.

Frank walked out of the room and said angrily, "If I see Scat next time, I'll swear I'll crucify him alive." He stole another glance at Isabel. Seeing that she had no intention of speaking, he asked her, "What do you think?"

"It doesn't matter. Isabel said.

"I don't care. ”

"Frank, Isabel, there's something I need your help with. I said in a very pleading tone.

"What's the matter?"

"Don't tell anyone else what you just saw, as if nothing had happened, just give Scat a chance to change, what do you think? For the sake of our years together, I beg you!"

"I promise you. Isabel said yes directly.

"What about you. Frank?"

He pondered for most of the day, "Okay, I promise you. It's as if nothing happened, who made you my own brother. But if there was a next time, I swear I'd slaughter Scat myself. ”

"Thanks, or we'll go to the surrounding towns tomorrow to see if there are any body robbers. Especially the cemetery. If any. Then I will show the ring my father gave me and tell them who I am. If not, let's go to San Gustavo and look for it. ”

Frank wondered, "What is a corpse robber?"

"You may not know what Scart just said, neither of us either, nor did we see what they looked like, but Scat was telling the truth. ”

"Well, I'll talk about it when I find it. I'll go with you. ”

"That's it. Isabel looked in high spirits.

"We should go now. ”

Not long after, those friends of mine had just returned from the nightclub. I didn't tell them about Scatter.

Frank was a little out of breath, but luckily he was only talking about the corpse robbers, "We're going to get to the corpse robbers." ”

My friends who heard the name of the corpse snatcher for the first time were surprised. "What's a corpse snatcher?" asked Mario curiously, "how do you know?"

In order not to let everyone know that Scat had come, Frank began to talk nonsense: "We caught a member of the Evil Spirit Party, we forced him to say all the organizations in the United States that are friendly with the Underworld Society, and he told us about the organization of the Corpse Thieves, and the Corpse Thieves work for our Underworld Society, please believe me, don't ask more, it's all true, don't ask again, this is the truth, please believe me." ”

"And then?"

"He was ...... by us Killed. ”

Frank is a genius liar, and my buddies take his word for it. Once Frank says what happened to Scatott, Margaret falls into grief again, so Frank can only make it up like this.

To find the robbers, we inquired about a well-preserved 18th-century cemetery in the suburbs, one of the best-preserved early cemeteries in the U.S. Commonwealth. Late at night, I took only Frank and Isabel to the cemetery. It is shrouded in fog all year round, the dark clouds in the night sky drift like ghosts, and the eerie moonlight casts a veil of mystery over the cemetery. We walked towards the center of the cemetery, passing through the stone monuments and stone angels. I think that's pretty much it, and if there aren't corpse robbers here, we're in the wrong place. I began to shout, "I am Alex, son of Henks Augustus, and I have summoned you in the name of the Underworld. ”

We tensed every nerve and waited quietly for the body robbers to appear.

After a while, there was still no movement.

"Looks like we're in the wrong place. Frank whispered.

Isabel was very patient, "Just wait." ”

After a few minutes, we finally heard the sound of digging. Suddenly, white arms began to emerge from the wet surface, and the sound of wooden coffins creaking and rattling came from underground, and I felt the whole cemetery move. Then the robbers crawled out of the ground and surrounded us. Their faces were cold and murderous, without the muscles of a werewolf or the elegance of a vampire, like a corpse soaked in the icy waters, their lips blackened, their foreheads and cheeks bulging as if they were about to burst, their deep, sunken eyes bloodshot like two blood cells, their fanged mouths exhaling a suffocating smell of corpses, and the gaps between their teeth were covered with dark stains, as if they had never brushed their teeth.

"Say something. Frank whispered to me.

I showed the robbers the ring my father had given me. When they saw the ring, they couldn't help but take a step back, a look of surprise on their faces. He seemed to be intimidated by some magic of the ring. "Don't be afraid. I said, "I am the son of Henks, and I lead you in the battle for the Underworld in the name of the Underworld. ”

I was approached by a corpse robber, who seemed to be the leader of the corpse robber team. "What's in it for us?" he asked in a hoarse voice.

"Corpses, wars, and killings, all that you have received is yours. ”

"In the past, it was the ancient blood spirit that awakened us, how could it be you today?"

"Because I am his son, I share a common purpose with him. I think I have the power to lead you, too. ”

"And what do you want us to do?"

"It's simple, gather all the corpse snatchers and fight for our Underworld Society. Of course I won't let you betray my father. I will not have a hierarchy with you, and we will be the closest compatriots from now on. ”

"The Ancient Blood Spirit is not in the American Federation right now. ”

"And where is he?"

"Nobody knows where he went, but I only know that he was in Hallelujah. ”

"Hallelujah, the legendary Island of Night. ”

"Looks like you know?"

"I see. It seems that this island really exists. ”

"He led a lot of his men down there. We also don't know if there really isn't daylight there. ”

"We don't have to rush there. "Besides, we don't know where to go." ”

The robber told us that his name was Walker Jokner, and that he was the leader of the robbers, and that he had both German and American blood. He said: "As soon as all the body robbers are gathered, we will immediately wipe out the evil spirits of the American Federation. He ordered the other robbers to go to San Gustavo in the Appalachian Mountains to wake up the other robbers and meet at the site of an 18th-century cemetery on the outskirts of Goddess Bay.

"Do you know where the Evil Spirits are located?" I asked.

"This ...... I know a thing or two. ”

"What? Know a little bit about it, aren't you sure?"

"There's something worth exploring here. ”

"Where?"

"I heard from my subordinates some time ago that in the Prince of Wales Point in Alaska, there are often evil spirits. ”

"Are you sure?"

"I think your father knew about it, too, but he didn't think much of it. Those evil spirits often cross the Bering Strait. And from the Chukchisk Peninsula of the Slavic Democratic Republic, he met with other evil spirit parties. The Bering Strait was their most common route of communication from the American continent to the continents of Asia Minor and Europa, and the area of activity of the Evil Spirits extended from the Chukchisk Peninsula to the west to the Siberian forests. It seems impossible to find them there. ”

"How do you know this, Volker?" asked Frank.

"My subordinates found out. ”

"How many people do you have?"

"The United States is the only country in the world that has corpse robbers, and I am the leader of all corpse robbers, and I know what every member of the corpse robbers has seen and heard. ”

"We only know their whereabouts, but we have never killed them, which proves that they are stronger than us. I said.

"Maybe the Evil Ghost Party has a stronger leader. Isabel guessed.

The same can be said. Walker looked a little helpless, "Who let Henks not kill the last Evil Spirit Party Ancient Blood Spirit in the first place?" ”

"How is that possible?" I was surprised, "He obviously killed all the ancient blood spirits of the Evil Spirit Party, could my father still lie to me?"

"Your father has seen him, as for his name, I have forgotten, your father also admitted that his body was not examined in the first place, and it is possible that the stake did not pierce the heart of the ancient blood spirit. ”

"Even if there is still ancient blood in the Evil Spirit Party Organization, so what?"

"Because of him, the number of the evil spirits will increase day by day, and it's annoying that today you drive them away and tomorrow they will come back again. ”

"Then you don't have any weapons?"

"There are a lot of weapons, our enemies too, and those hateful witchers come to cause trouble from time to time, so things are even more complicated, and the situation is really chaotic now. ”

"Walker, when will your subordinates return?"

"I don't think it will be dawn. ”

"It's been too long. ”

"That's all there is to it. Why don't you go to a nearby bar for a drink? I'm getting a little thirsty. ”

"Okay, what about you?" I said, turning my gaze to Frank and Isabel.

"Okay, new friends joined. We should go for a drink. Frank said.

Walker took us to one of the most popular bars with local villains. Wherever there are human beings, Walker will wear a cap and sunglasses to hide his ugly and hideous face, and even chew gum to cover the stench in his mouth, so as not to disturb others, but also to prevent revealing his identity. I heard that the security captain of this bar is a gunman with a golden double gun, and he is excellent for his marksmanship. Punishing evil and promoting good has attracted the attention of the local police department. The gunman, who was not usually in the bar, often tied up criminals who were difficult for the police to catch and threw them at the door of the police station. Then he disappeared without a trace, no one saw his true face, and no one knew his real name, which reminded people of heroes such as Batman, Superman, and Spider-Man in Hollywood blockbusters. The gunman became a local legend. With him. It's a much quieter place than ever, children like to call him "The Man with the Golden Gun", and some toymakers have made all sorts of toys from their own imagination. Walker also told us that the gunman had a good relationship with Michael Howard, the manager of the bar. Once, several villains forced Michael to say the name of the Golden Gunner, but he didn't say it, and as a result, the villains beat him badly and stabbed him three times in the leg, but fortunately his life was not in danger. The next day. The thugs who beat Michael were tied to a street lamp outside the police station and were later discovered by the police. The villains were also punished by the law for intentionally wounding people.

Anyway, we don't know the Golden Gunner, but hopefully he's not one of the witchers, and I'm sure he won't bother us.

We went into the bar and it was lively. The people who come here are some unprofessional people, they are hooligans and villains on the streets, but they are not too disturbing the public order and doing all kinds of evil.

Not far away at the billiard table, a man was holding a bottle of whiskey to force a girl to drink, but the girl slapped him hard, but he didn't expect the man to be even more rampant, he looked drunk, and he also had a very proud look. He quickly called in some of his accomplices, pressed the girl on the table, and forced her to pour wine into her mouth, and several well-meaning young men tried to save the girl, but they were beaten by the thugs, so that no one dared to come forward to help the girl out of the siege.

We couldn't stand it anymore, Frank was the first to step forward and push away the villain who poured wine into the girl's mouth, the two villains seemed to be enraged, they raised their fists and hit Frank, Frank easily dodged, launched a defensive counterattack, and it was so easy to clean them up that he broke the villain's arm. Everyone else was surprised, and the voices around them immediately stopped, and only the dynamic music was still playing. The girl was saved, and she hurriedly thanked Frank. The thugs hurriedly got up and helped each other out of the bar.

The people around him were all looking at Frank intently, and he also looked at the onlookers and said, "What's there to see? If I see the same thing next time, the consequences will be worse than theirs, everybody continue." ”

The bar has returned to a raucous atmosphere. Frank and Walker also played billiards, and their outstanding skills attracted many billiards fans. They are sought after by enthusiasts, which makes the atmosphere even more lively.

But I always wondered: if that Golden Gun Man was really a witcher, and we happened to be bumped into by him again, the consequences would be unimaginable. I always felt a sense of unease here, and it felt like the evil spirits were secretly watching us right around us, and they might be watching us from the floors outside the bar.

I have a hunch that the witchers will soon appear in the Bay of the Goddesses, and they will fight the vampires here to the death, and this will become a new battlefield for vampires and witchers, and if it is serious, the werewolves will also come to cause trouble.

The vampire organizations have been fighting for dominance of Europa for a long time, and they began to fight for the continent of America hundreds of years ago, and the main battlefield between them is the current American Federation. Until now, there are still many witchers in the United States who still use crossbow arrows and boomerangs, and they are highly skilled, coming and going without a trace, acting secretly, and can kill any enemy they see. Thinking of this, I associate the Golden Gun here with those witchers. We have to get out of this bar quickly, or we're all in danger. Frank's actions may have revealed our identities, and perhaps someone has already informed the Gunner. I immediately urged my companions to leave the place, and when they saw that I had a serious expression, they left the bar with me without saying a word. (To be continued.) )
