"Now for the second item on the council's agenda, the handling of escaped vampires!"

Priest Beagle said solemnly, "So far, we can be sure that there are at least three vampires mixed in the city, one of which has been solved by Baron Ronan and Deputy Commander Rudolph, but there are still two female vampires who are missing, they are the cause of the tragedy of the Pex family, for the safety of the city, we must find and solve them immediately!" ”

After listening to Beagle's words, the other people's eyes turned to Ronan and Rudolph with a hint of inquiry in their eyes.

After all, in their eyes, these two men did kill a vampire, and they were the most qualified among them to solve this problem.

Rudolph, who was watching, did not change his face, but he panicked in his heart, his family knew about his own family affairs, and said that he solved it, but he didn't even see the face of a living vampire, God knows how the monster died.

Fortunately, Ronan helped him alleviate the embarrassment.

"Don't worry too much about the fact that the vampire is not as strong as we thought, as long as there are enough soldiers to resist head-on, it can be subdued with chains, and its batwing can be pierced with crossbow arrows to restrict flight."

"As for the death of the knights of the Pexx family, there is another reason, I believe everyone has some speculation."

Vicky and Baron Ashford nodded, they had both heard that Viscount Pex's marriage to a woman who was too beautiful to be mortal.

Now combined with the news heard by coming to Blackstone City, as well as the rumors about the conflict between father and son.

They quickly guessed the cause and the result.

After all, if the vampire was really strong enough to kill one Silver Knights and ten knights head-on, why bother to do it now, he should have killed Black Rock City and nearby territories a long time ago.

"Therefore, in order to solve the vampire's troubles, I need Lady Vicky and Baron Ashford to each provide Blackstone City with a team of about two hundred fully armed soldiers to help Blackstone City search and deal with vampires, and I hope the two of them can cooperate to help."

Hearing his words, the eyes of the two people, who were still pondering the course of the incident, began to dodge.

"I'm afraid it's too late." Baron Ashford's mind raced, coughed a few times and continued, "It will take eight days for my soldiers to get from the territory to Blackstone City, to say the least, what if the vampires act again within this time?" ”

"That's right, the Iron Stone Territory is more than ten days away from here, and it's too slow."

Lady Vicky added, trying to excuse herself, "I think that since you and Rudolph can kill one vampire, and are fully capable of killing the other two, our soldiers lack cooperation, and even if they come, they will only drag you down." ”

"So, are you two reluctant to send troops?" Ronan looked at the two of them with a disgruntled expression.

Vicky and Ashford's faces tensed after a brief moment of embarrassment, pretending not to understand.

They were really reluctant to send troops, saying that vampires could be stopped by ordinary soldiers, but the devil knows what the situation would be.

Under the influence of the Black Death, the people in their territory are already nervous and need to be supervised by soldiers, and if they get here, most of them will be killed or injured, and their rule may even be shaken.

The atmosphere of the meeting became a little stiff.

"In that case, I need you to provide me with food, weapons, ingots, and wood to support our soldiers in their fight against the vampires."

Ronan broke the deadlock and let the atmosphere gradually ease.

"Of course, as long as we are able to do that, there is no problem with that." Vicky and Ashford breathed a sigh of relief and nodded with a smile on their faces.

Now trade is blocked, and many of the goods in their hands are unsalable.

Being able to use these to replace soldiers in battle is undoubtedly a very lucrative deal in their eyes.

With the two most critical issues resolved, all that remains is the usual exchange of goods and pleasantries.

With Priest Beagle's closing remarks, the Council of Nobles of Blackstone City officially came to an end.

Vicky and Ashford were disappointed and happy, but wanted to leave and return to their own territory.

They drove all the way to Blackstone City in a carriage to fight for the right to govern it.

Now that it's no longer a show, it's natural that I don't want to stay in this city where there is still a vampire threat.

As for the supplies that Ronan requested, they could provide them by staying in the chamber of commerce warehouse in the city, so they didn't have to make another trip.

After determining the amount of supplies and agreeing to exchange them with the mercenary slaves tomorrow, Ronan and they parted.

Later, he held a separate council with Rudolph, deputy commander of the city defense army, Arman, deputy commander of the castle army, and Adlich, the finance and foreign minister.

"Commander Rudolph, from now on you will be the rightful leader of the city defense, and I will canonize you as a baron on behalf of Viscount Kasanna."

"Not only that, but the salary of the soldiers of the city defense army will be changed from ten silver coins per month to twenty silver coins per month, and in the next month, as a reward for searching for vampires, this month's salary will be increased to one gold coin."

Hearing his words, Rudolph's face was filled with an uncontrollable smile.

"Foreign Minister Adlich, in the next month, I need you to cooperate with the city guards to close all the bathrooms in the city, and I have consulted with the Church priest Beagle on this matter, and he has agreed."

"And I also need you to arrange a group of civilians to clean up the garbage on the streets, and find a way to dispose of the rats and other animals that will be encountered in the process, and throw their corpses outside the city for burial, I will provide you with a quota of 1,000 gold coins to solve this task."

After giving his orders, Ronan looked to Castle Army Commander Arman.

"Finally, Commander-in-Chief Arman, in three days Kasanna and I will leave Blackstone City for the Coldwind Territory, and you and the Castle Army will need to be ready to go together."

"Get out of here?" Arman was stunned, he didn't have a problem with leaving here with the castle army.

Unlike the City Guards, the Castle Army is precisely the Pro-Army unit of the Pexes.

After Kasanna succeeded to the viscount, it must have been Kasanna who went and the castle army followed.

Arman just didn't understand why he was leaving Black Rock at this time.

"This happened, the castle is now uninhabitable, and I took her outside to change my mood." Ronan looked at Cassana behind her.

Since the previous council of nobles, she has been obediently holding Ronan's hand and keeping it quiet.

"In addition, it is also a problem for vampires to stay in hiding all the time, and leaving the city may be able to attract them to take the initiative, and then you will have to trouble Commander Arman and lead the castle army to deal with them."

"It's incumbent." Arman knelt down on one knee in Kasanna's direction and gritted his teeth, "I will wash away the shame of the castle army with their blood!" ”
