Chapter 163: The Strange Case of Vampire

Located on the edge of the Empire, the town of Dawn Plains was the gateway to the Charman Empire and the Dawn Forest Valley, as well as a place where merchants from the north and south met for trade. As the only hotel in the town, Fanghua Inn is naturally prosperous and attracts a large number of guests to settle down.

In the dining room on the first floor, people come and go, the sound is noisy, the innkeeper loudly reports the name of the dish, wanders between the dining tables, pours water and serves the dishes, a busy scene. Consciously or unconsciously, they did not dare to approach the several tables in the corners above the steps of the hall, because there were a group of fierce men sitting on them.

Although this person was dressed as a professional, the little guys with vicious eyes noticed the scars and calluses they inadvertently exposed, and the knight's sword on his back also revealed cold light from time to time. When they stared at me, a chill rose from the top of their heads, and they felt extremely stressed. They don't look like ordinary professionals at all, but more like a bunch of regular soldiers.

These tables are located at the top of the hall on the first floor, and you can see the main entrance when you look up. The group, led by a big man with flat blonde hair and a scarred face, drank and chatted while cautiously observing their surroundings.

"Captain, it's getting dark, do you think those guys will still come?" next to the big man, a fat-headed and big-eared Humpty Dumpty man, pretending to pour a sip of wine, asked in a low voice.

"I don't know!" the big man rubbed his forehead, looking helpless, and whispered: "These things are elusive, no one has ever seen them." From the information gathered, it seems that they will all attack at night, the man is handsome, the woman is beautiful. We just need to pay attention to the new face and come forward to check if necessary. ”

"Understood!" the big men said with their right arms clenched into fists neatly on their chests, nodding in unison. Although the voice was lowered, there was still a murderous aura, which frightened the surrounding guests and told the little servant to move the table far away, unwilling to be next to them.

This big man's name is Ferdinand, nicknamed the Tiger, and he is the captain of the First Brigade of the Knights of the Holy Flame. He is a devout cultist, an excellent paladin who has led his men on wars for many years, dealing with all kinds of tricky religious matters and fighting evil creatures.

Under the garrison of the Imperial Frontier Legion, the town of Pingyuan is extremely neat and tidy, and the law and order has always been very good. The constant trade in goods and services made the area richer, and the inhabitants were richer than the people of Kyoto, and it was always an important source of finance and taxation for the western provinces of the empire.

But recently, the law and order situation here has gone wrong, and a series of strange murders have made people nervous, and the transaction volume of merchants has rapidly decreased. The consul of the Xixing Province saw it in his eyes and was anxious in his heart, and hurriedly mobilized a large number of soldiers from the public security station to maintain order, but he did not expect that not only did he not catch the bad guys, but many soldiers died.

This time, the city is full of wind and rain, and the people are panicked. No one knew what the murderer looked like, the sheriff only heard them mention in the mouths of a few drunkards who were sleeping on the streets, and they vaguely saw the murderer, as if it was a group of handsome men and women who were very beautiful, and after frolicking around the soldiers, he somehow saw the soldiers fall, and then these people disappeared in an instant.

In desperation, the provincial officials turned to Pope Philip XVIII at the Castle of Neverwinter, who quickly sent the First Brigade to investigate. Captain Ferdinand is a veteran oiler and has a lot of experience in dealing with these things.

He did not lead the team into the station with great fanfare, but divided the team into pieces, pretending to be a businessman, and wandered the streets and alleys sporadically to find out the news. He himself led an elite team to guard the Fanghua Inn, closely watching all the suspicious people coming and going.

Judging from the traces of the deceased's wounds, the other party's neck was generally opened, and the blood of the whole body was sucked dry. Ferdinand's eyes were so vicious that he could tell at a glance that it was the work of the Blood. Given that Plains Town has not had a vampire injury in years, they will focus on the handsome men and women who suddenly appear in the town.

As it got dark, the servants lit oil lamps, and table after table was placed on top of the room, illuminating the whole hall at once. Ferdinand was drunkenly chanting a ditty while tapping the beat with one finger, looking chic and calm, not at all in a hurry.

At this moment, the gate was suddenly opened, and the northwest wind poured in so violently that it was impossible to open people's eyes, and several oil lamps were extinguished in an instant. I saw a slender black-haired young man with a smile on his face walking in, followed by three men and two women, all dressed as professionals. They glanced at the noise in the hall and walked straight to a secluded corner and sat down.

"Boss, just put a whole table, just serve good wine and meat, and bring all the characteristics. A bald young man with a strong figure slapped the table, threw out a gold coin as a tip, and commanded loudly.

"We have eight meats, eight vegetables and eight treasures in our store, as well as a famous wine daughter red, do you need to taste it?" Seeing that the other party made a big move, the little guy didn't dare to slack off, so he hurriedly trotted over, nodded and smiled.

"The food is casual, the wine should be the best, you are talking about the daughter red, right? Let's have ten jars first!" The big man touched his bald head and said loudly: "We have a few horses tied in the stable, we must use the best beans and forage for them to eat, and we will be in a hurry tomorrow." ”

"The villain remembers, there is a table of eight meats, eight vegetables and eight treasures, and my daughter has ten red altars, and it will be fine soon!" the little guy nodded and left to prepare the food.

"Captain, look over there!" said Nunu, the fat knight in the corner, to Ferdinand, "that table is full of fresh faces, except for the bald head and the dwarf, everyone else is very handsome, do you want to go up and test it?"

Ferdinand didn't speak, and he stared for a moment when the crowd came in. Although the other party was dressed as a professional, the bearing of the superior made him a little secretly surprised. Especially the black-haired young man, although he has a harmless smile on his face, his momentum of not being angry and arrogant is naturally revealed, which makes himself who is used to seeing big people a little frightened.

"It's okay to try. He nodded and said, and then added uneasily: "Fat Dragon, be careful when you speak, be careful to annoy the other party!"

"Subordinates understand!" the paladin, known as the Fat Dragon, stood up and moved like a hill with a shuddering body. He saw that except for the bald man, the rest of the people were obviously rich sons who came out to play in the mountains and rivers and play with girls.

He secretly laughed in his heart: "Adults are good at everything, but they are too careful." I'm afraid I can't stand the scare, so I'll let them and see if I can make them fart, hehe!" )
