Chapter 60: The First Sight of the Bloodline
It looks as if it's still alive. Lin asked loudly, "Are you okay?" ”
As if for the sake of Lord Anta's heart, he took Harumi's hand and put it down. The girl cried out, "Teacher, Kaya has been bitten. Now she's not awake. Then he was rolled up again.
"Card, don't worry, your Excellency, do what we say, no one will be hurt."
So who are these people? A spy of the Thieves' Guild? Assassins of the Killer Guild? Or those species that live in a dark world? Without thinking much about it, Lin responded to the uninvited guest and said, "Okay, I can cooperate." It's just that I'm not used to talking in such a dark environment, so I don't mind if I turn on the light. With that, Lin raised his right hand, ready to flick the ring of the second section of his little finger.
"Alas, alas! Please don't act rashly. The hidden man hurriedly stopped Lin's movements, and at the same time grabbed Halumi's neck, lifted the person a few points higher, and said, "In Your Excellency's magic tower, I don't want any irrational actions to cause our misunderstanding. So, please put your hands where we can see and don't make strange movements. I think it's a nice atmosphere to talk in such an environment, you say. ”
"Well, I agree." Loosen your hands and place them in plain sight. But being completely controlled by others is not Lin's habit. Anyway, the lighting adjustment of the Great Sage Tower is not only manual control. "But I still don't like talking to people in the dark, so, Wright!"
With the spell command, the hall on the first floor was suddenly fully lit. Lin didn't move, his head didn't turn, and the corner of his eye swept as far as he could see, trying to write down all the enemy's locations and numbers. But what made him dumbfounded was that there were many terrible howls all around. Beneath the light is a human figure that burns to ashes, struggling or covering up. Without exception, it was all turned into a pile of dust on the floor.
Lin Silly stood still, his mind was in confusion, and he was trying to clarify the current situation. And Harumi, who fell to the ground, hurriedly caught the black-haired brown-skinned girl who was about to collapse and helped her to sit on the ground. "Teacher, teacher, come and see Kaya."
Came to the girl's side to inspect the injury, the highly marked tiger tooth bite marks, plus more than a dozen piles of dust on the ground, the person who touched in and caused trouble was a vampire? So why turn on the lights and they will all turn to ashes?
After coming to the Maze World, Lin had no experience in dealing with dark creatures, but had simply heard rumors about it. As for the dark nobles of the Lost Land, the characteristics of vampires are almost the same as the legends of the earth. In the same way, sunlight is its fatal wound.
However, before today, Lin thought that it was because of the power contained in the sun, that is, the characteristics that belonged to the mysterious side, which would cause damage to vampires. But in retrospect, that doesn't seem to be the case.
The lights in the Magic Tower are a combination of multiple wavelengths of light that simulate daytime sunlight. The reason is that this kind of lighting should be the most accustomed to the light of the obsessed people, and the negative impact on vision should also be the lowest. But this kind of light is fatal to the vampire, is it because of a special band of light in it, or is it a combination of simulated sunlight? Or is it the effect of ultraviolet rays, as in some science fiction vampire novels on Earth?
"Teacher, is Kaya okay?" Harumi was still worried about his companions. Lin probably clarified the cause and effect, and after cooperating with the rumors he heard, he comforted the girl and said, "Don't worry, it's too late for the vampire to complete the ritual of the first embrace." Besides, the person who bit her hung up, and this is also in the early stage, as long as the remaining toxins are expelled, it should be fine. So girl, take out all the garlic we have. ”
"Okay, I'll get it right away." With that, the girl planned to run to the warehouse. It's just that he was caught by his own teacher and couldn't run away. Lin heard that the vampires of the lost world were not afraid of garlic, but they were just disgusted. Although garlic could not hurt the vampire, it could remove the toxin from this initial symptom, so the girl was told to go and get it. It's just that the dead vampires are all the invaders?
"Don't worry, check if there are any other enemies in the tower."
Hearing this, the girl flicked her earrings and immediately used the water mirror technique to call up the scans of the creatures on each layer of the Great Sage's Tower. Several scanning modes were changed in a row, and the result was the same, and there were three life characteristics hidden in the restaurant.
With a wave of his hand, the door of the restaurant opened widely. Lin shouted inside, "The people hiding inside come out." Your companions out there are dead, so don't think you have a chance to escape. ”
A panicked and green male voice came out, saying, "Tower Master, do you know that you have already caused a lot of trouble. Do you know who you killed? ”
"Oh, I'm already in trouble." Lin said indifferently: "Then even you don't have to stay." Rai ...... "Wait a minute! ”
The secret spell that was about to be exited was blocked, and the person inside said, "You killed us like this, aren't you afraid of the revenge of the blood clan?" ”
"I've already killed a bunch of them, and now I'm afraid that the revenge of the blood clan is too slow. So killing one is killing, killing two is killing, killing a bunch and killing three, that's it. So goodbye, Lai ......" "Wait a minute! ”
The secret spell was blocked again, and the people inside were angry and said, "Why are you going to kill people at every turn?" Do you know who the people around us are? "Kish! Can't say. ”
Hearing another voice stopping, Lin also said indifferently: "That's right, don't say it." Anyway, if you kill a bunch of people outside, you can say that I'm in big trouble, and it doesn't seem bad to add a few of you. So just leave me unaware, and then you obediently die. Your great people of blood will come for revenge, so come. It's a big deal to turn on the lights and sleep later. Rai ...... "Wait a minute! ”
The man inside said in a panic, "Beside us is Princess Dorothy Najib, a relative of Grand Duke Istwan Najib. If you kill her, you'll face endless revenge from the Bloodline. ”
"You idiot. Tell me how the revenge of the Bloods is different from the endless revenge of the Bloodlines. Since I don't want to kill you, it makes no difference to me. Then why should I keep you and let me have three more enemies in the future. Rai ...... "Wait a minute. ”
This time it was a woman who shouted to stop, and it seemed that it was the princess. Lin listened to the other party and said calmly: "Your Excellency Tower Master, today's incident is our fault. I promise that when you let us go, we will not retaliate. Is that enough? ”
"Your Royal Highness Princess, I killed a bunch of you people, and I was careless about it. I didn't know you guys were so brittle, turn on the light and it's all over. So I promise that after the three of you go to Hell to meet your companions, I will not kill your lair and take any revenge. You said, "That's okay." Rai ...... "Wait a minute! "Wait a minute!" "Wait a minute!"
This time, it was three people shouting in unison. Lin waited for a while before he heard one of them say, "Your Excellency Tower Master, don't go too far. Grand Duke Najib, you can't afford to mess with him. "The gnashing of teeth is very obvious.
"Anyway, it's a big problem, so is it any worse to afford it than not to be able to provoke it? The Magic Tower is not such an easy target to attack. If you want to take revenge, I will kill you. Anyway, if you kill your dark creatures and don't commit the taboo of the Wizards Association, you might as well have a bounty to take. ”
"Then how are you going to let us go? Want money? We can pay M Kiel (1000 gold) as a ransom. ”
Lin said disdainfully, "Hmph, M Kiel." Girl, you go upstairs and bring Xbar Kiel (10,000 gold) down for these people to see, and then turn on the lights and send them on their way. ”
"Wait a minute, you still want some treasure. Endless money bags? Emerald Bow? ”
"Not all treasures are the same. Let you go, you are killing the door, revenge and snatch the treasure back by the way. ”
"I ...... I can be your servant, any Bloodline who comes to your door, and I will kill them with my own hands. ”
"No, I don't want to. The crispy guy who dies when he turns on the light will die as much as he comes. One more of you, and I'll have to get in the way of not turning on the lights. ”
"Don't think that under the command of Grand Duke Najib, there are only warriors of the Blood Clan."
"This is the Magic Tower, responsible for guarding one side and guarding the fortress of the civilized world. If I were afraid that you dark creatures would attack, I would have already retreated back to Wulian City, and I would not have chosen to be stationed here. ”
"Then what do you need to release people?"
"I don't know anything that I have to and can only get from you. If you want to live, you have to put forward enough conditions to attract me in order to have a chance to live. So don't mention some marginal, useless conditions. You'll have to think for yourself about what I might need. If you can't think of it, just die. ”
"If I promise, there won't be any bloodlines who will trouble you because of today's incident."
This time it was the princess who spoke. However, Lin still had the same attitude, saying, "Believe in your promise? Say it as if you are very creditworthy. Is it true that in the rumors of your vampires, humans who get mixed with magicians are fools? ”
The princess, who was hiding in the dark, came from a calm voice and said, "Swear by the Blood Covenant." The other two were a little angry and stopped.
"Bloodline Pact? What the hell? ”
"With my blood, I swear to the month of Gudarana in heaven. If I break my oath, I will not be protected by the moonlight, and I will burn up as if I were exposed to the sun. Of course, if you are willing to accept my first embrace and become my family, I will definitely protect your safety. No one is going to hurt you. ”
"yes, and then in the magic tower, turn on a light to kill myself. I don't know how long you lived, this ......" Lin forgot the other party's name, simply skipped it, and said, "Well, princess." Needless to say, the kind of obvious deception to the child, so as not to highlight that the person in the dialogue is stupid. As for the Blood Covenant, it sounds like it's still a bit feasible. But there are some things that I still have to ask first. Until then, please show up. Face-to-face conversations are always more sincere than hiding your head and showing your tail. ”
One of the men said worriedly, "You're not going to lie to us and kill us." ”
"If I had the intention of killing, I wouldn't have said so much to you. I don't know if bad guys often die from talking too much. Besides, if you want to die, I'll just turn on the light, and if you don't show up, is there anything wrong? ”
Standing outside the door, Lin looked at a corner of the restaurant and walked out of three black shadows. In that dim orange light, the black mist dissipated, and a pale, bloodless face appeared first. The big black dress sets off the breasts and binds the waist, revealing the beautiful figure. The long skirt is like a mist, gently swaying with the movement of her legs, as if it does not exist in the world, only in the painting.
She lifted her skirt lightly and bowed slightly. "Your Excellency, I am Dorothy Najib, the sole relative of my father, Grand Duke Istwan Najib."
