Chapter 312: Let's Kill One First
As soon as Ivus was about to walk towards the door, he was suddenly pressed by the man in black wearing an animal mask on the shoulder.
His movements were violent, and his hand hurt a little when he pressed against Ivus's thin shoulder.
She was keenly aware that if she went any further, she might be pushed down. So she immediately stopped.
"Are you going to kill him...... My lovely hosts? ”
The Shadow Fiend's voice rang in his ears.
- Don't worry, let's see what he's going to do.
Unlike the outward uneasiness and panic, Ivas responded to the Shadow Fiend's voice in his heart with great calmness.
The man in black took out a chain from his bosom and skillfully hung it in the collar around Ivus's neck.
Then he led Ivus out of the room. He gave him a push from behind, causing Ivus to stumble forward. And he followed behind, holding the chain in his hand.
In the narrow hallway, where only two people could walk side by side, cell doors could be seen opening one after another. One after another, men in black, wearing different animal masks on their faces, dragged out of their cells young men and women, who were thinly dressed but had delicate and handsome faces.
They looked at each other, but they couldn't say hello because they were so far apart. One by one, they could only walk barefoot through the cold wooden floor.
The winter weather was cold, and Ivas couldn't help but hug his shoulders. It made her look even more effeminate - but it wasn't a disguise, mainly because he was frozen.
Contrary to the frail impression of always being in a wheelchair, Ivas has always been quite strong. After all, I used to play ball, and my height was more than 1.8 meters. Although he is always wearing loose clothes, he is actually full of muscles.
The last time he was frozen was probably the hardest winter he spent in an orphanage with Yulia.
Their clothes were thin, and the fireplace in the orphanage wasn't very hot. When I went to bed at night, I could only fall asleep by holding Yulia to keep warm.
And now...... Perhaps because of the severe anemia in his body, Ivas felt even more difficult than that winter.
She was just walking on the road when she felt her body start to tremble and tremble.
…… But perhaps it was precisely because her body was trembling that no one noticed that her shadow was also shaking irregularly.
These blood slaves live on the second floor. They were led down two floors by the men in black down a spiral staircase, and when they reached the basement, she gradually felt warmer—
It's completely different from the top - this basement with a heavy wool carpet, and even the carpet is warm. It's like laying underfloor heating.
They walked quietly through a relatively dimly lit "employee passage". Far away, you can already hear the reserved chatter and laughter of men and women at the banquet, as well as the crisp clinking of glasses.
Eventually, they were led to a huge stone pillar that could only be hugged by five or six people. The pillars have intricate reliefs that form hook after hook. The man in black who was leading Ivus hung up her chains, and then put a "14" sign on the end of the chain.
"Let's eat, eat quickly."
He patted Ivus on the shoulder and walked away.
Hanging from this pillar were young girls.
In front of these pillars are some fresh vegetables and fruits, as well as some desserts and wine. These desserts have a rich iris style – simply put, the colours are good-looking, with plenty of fruit garnishing these mousses, puddings and tarts.
As soon as Ivus looked over, he saw that there were even twelve or thirteen different wines, and none of them were cheap.
The other girls all walked over to the wine.
And someone patted No. 14 on the shoulder: "Let's have a bottle together today, right?" ”
It was a girl with short curly blond hair and wet eyes like a small animal. She looks a little bigger than "Number 14" played by Eivas. Perhaps because of this, she has the desire to take care of her.
She was joined by another silver-haired girl on the shoulder.
"Hmm."
Ivas nodded slightly, and followed.
The other girl showed a moment of hesitation and confusion on her face, but soon she showed a calm expression and walked over with her chest held high.
- Ivas immediately recognized that this man must be the one who was promoted.
The reason is simple.
Their current identities are all blood slaves, and her temperament seems to be too noble and her mental state is too good, which is really unworthy of the identity that has been tortured for a long time.
So, who is she?
- Ban? Stranger? Philosopher? Or is it a ghost?
As she pondered, Ivus kept an eye on the blonde girl's eyes, searching for the bottle of wine they were drinking. It couldn't have been easier for Ivas - just find the bottle of wine that the girl was looking at subconsciously. So Iwass quietly picked up a bottle of low-alcohol pineapple fruit wine.
She didn't try to open the bottle, but handed it directly to the girl with curly blond hair.
The silver-haired girl picked up another bottle of red wine that had been extinct for many years in their time. She looked intently at the words on the bottle, looking a little moved.
"Sister No. 7...... Are you going for a change of taste? ”
The girl with curly blond hair looked a little uneasy: "But that might anger the adults, right?" ”
Ivus immediately understood what they were doing.
- Is this mixing the taste of blood with food and wine?
"No, I'm just picking it up and seeing."
Number 7 paused and put the bottle back down.
She looked up and glanced at Ivus and the other girl with a sharp gaze.
Obviously, Iwas's acting skills are good enough - the other party recognizes her as an NPC.
After all, Ivas didn't ask them which bottle of wine they were drinking, and just took the correct one. It also looks like a picture of cowardice and cowardice that dare not speak......
It would be nice if there were those introverted and timid promoters – but the only thing that might seem relevant to that is the "hatter". However, the hatter was an old lady, and she could only turn into a man. So Ivas certainly isn't.
So she calmed her nerves and began to ask them directly for information: "Who have you been taking care of lately?" ”
Ivas winced, ignoring her. Instead, he took the golden sparkling wine that the blonde girl handed over, filled a full glass of sparkling wine, and then picked up the grapes next to him and drank some wine from the grapes.
“…… It's just that, it's still those few. ”
The blonde girl replied casually, "I'm still the same three, basically the same." You might be able to take a break today. However, the 14th has been very fond of Miss Bayard recently, and the other party has been ordering her for three days in a row...... I guess she'll still come. ”
Holding a peach, nibbling and drinking wine - not so much with wine as with rice. For these girls, who looked to be less than eighteen years old, it was somewhat torturous to want to drink so much alcohol on an empty stomach. And the degree they chose was not very high, and Ivas also saw that there were girls drinking wine in their thirties......
"Just go over and be sucked by their blood?"
No. 7 didn't hide it at all, and asked directly in a low voice.
"Of course not......"
The other party looked at her a little inexplicably: "Why do you ask this?" ”
"Just answer me directly."
No. 7 was a little impatient: "What did those adults do to you?" ”
She asked, as she quickly ate fruit and pastries.
She had a fruit pudding and then a strawberry mousse cake. After taking a sip of wine, he began to nibble on the apple quickly in order to recover his strength quickly.
Because she chewed too quickly, she made a distinct sound. It was clear to Ivus that someone else was eyeing her—or rather, she was meant to be targeted.
And just then, a man in black wearing an owl mask suddenly came into their lounge.
He directly picked up a notebook and read the number: "Number 7, Count Alonso." Number 12, Lady Marta. Number 14, Miss Bayard. Number 15, Sir Lind. Go change your clothes. ”
The girl with short blond hair next to her was a little panicked: "Why is it so early...... My lord, she hasn't eaten much on the 14th......"
As soon as she wanted to go up, she was directly pushed away by the man in black. Then he used the small golden key he held in his arms to open Ehuas's collar.
The moment the heavy metal collar was unfastened, Washton took a long breath. I felt like I was finally able to catch my breath.
…… Is the key in their arms? Does everyone have it, or is it only this person with the owl mask who has it?
Ivus thought.
She glanced at Number 7 with her peripheral vision, bowed her head slightly, and the corners of her mouth rose slightly.
Although this mission was evaluated as "useless killing...... And this body is too weak to be good at fighting.
But Ivas could clearly feel that No. 14 had a mana pool in her body - she was probably a first-level demon scholar, and she had three dark attribute mana in her body.
The mission spanned sixteen hours, and the limit of the Illusion Card was refreshed after the zero-point magic card. This means that she can theoretically use the same magic card twice.
But she probably didn't have a chance to sleep, and she didn't have the means to recover her mana.
In other words, Ivus can use the Cloak of Shadows twice, or summon Earthbound Spirits once—
So she only has one chance.
However, Shadow Fiend doesn't need to consume mana.
Whether it's "finding a companion" or other tasks, as long as you can kill someone first, you will get the initiative.
Because only you know if you have killed someone.
In other words, if you kill a companion, you know "how many people are left" more accurately than anyone else. It's easier to get a special victory.
It is even possible to push the identity of the "whistleblower" to the "missing" person and hide himself.
If there were other whistleblowers, they would have been able to think of this.
Because only those who flee will worry about the situation of "not having enough people". But it doesn't matter to the whistleblower.
And look at the forest outside—
In the middle of this dense forest, in the middle of winter...... How can their group of poor little people who are anemic and have no shoes to wear, escape?
Thinking of this, Ivus suddenly paused.
He thought of another possibility.
- Wouldn't everyone be a whistleblower?
It is also possible......
But if you kill her now, it's too easy to be discovered. After all, she has been named and is being noticed.
…… Wait for her to get off work.
A blood slave should only receive one guest at a time, otherwise the blood in the body is probably not enough. Judging from the girl's words, not everyone should be ordered every day - and most likely once a day.
After she got off work, No. 7 had a reason to "disappear".
The thought in Aihuas's mind was racing, and it was only a split second that the death of Number 7 was decided.
She was hit by a visibly nervous No. 7. Number 7 didn't look back to apologize to her, but glanced back at her slightly, and walked forward without looking back.
Ivus, on the other hand, showed a timid expression, and shrank for a moment without saying anything.
She just squinted, drank the wine from her glass, then picked up a mousse cake and walked briskly to the dressing room.
- But for some reason, No. 7, who followed No. 12 to the locker room, suddenly felt a chill in his heart.
It's like some demon is peeking at you in the dark.
Update to provoke!
I accidentally fell asleep after eating...... But after getting up, the fever is completely gone, yes!
I hope it can be maintained and it won't burn again at night. It's become a little burnt cat......
