The atmosphere in Blackstone Castle suddenly became tense.
Under the order of Baron Anlan, Locke, who had not fully recovered from his injuries, led the reorganized escort team to conduct a rigorous door-to-door search of all places in the castle, looking for lurking vampires.
The Yangmei Team also joined the ranks of searchers, but due to the lack of manpower and the large number of various buildings, workshops, and shops in the castle, the search work was very difficult. Coupled with the resistance of some residents, the progress was very slow.
, and no trace of the vampire was found for two consecutive days.
Therefore, the Lord's Mansion issued a reward notice. Whoever finds useful and reliable clues can receive a reward of 10 gold coins. The reward for killing a vampire is as high as 100 gold coins!
On the third day, the search operation continued.
In the luxuriously decorated study on the second floor of the Lord's Mansion, Baron Anlan was sitting behind the desk, carefully reviewing the piles of official documents and correspondence on the table.
Zhao Xi stood aside, his figure upright and firm, as if he was made of stone and iron.
Now that the guards of the Lord's Mansion and the Yangmei Team are out in full force to search for vampires in the castle, Lord Anlan's protection task has been handed over to him. Originally, this job belonged to Ye Qianqian, but the rich lady
After persisting for a day, he became impatient, so Zhao Xi had to come in person.
"Thanks a lot!"
Baron Anlan suddenly raised his head, smiled sweetly at Zhao Xi and said, "You have been here with me for the past two days. It must be very boring, right?"
Although she is almost forty years old, her beautiful appearance has not changed much with the passage of time. When she smiles, she still has a heart-warming mature charm, which is very charming.
Zhao Xi bowed slightly: "It is my duty to protect you, Sir."
An Lan smiled and was about to chat with him for a few more words when someone knocked gently on the study door.
She changed her words and said: "Come in!"
A maid in a white dress opened the door and walked in carrying a silver tray with a teapot and snacks on it.
Before I knew it, it was already time for afternoon tea.
An Lan smiled and said: "I asked someone to prepare an extra portion, please share it with me."
She reached out and motioned to the maid to put the tea tray down on the table next to the desk.
"kill!"
Then at this moment, Zhao Xi suddenly launched an attack. Without any warning, he suddenly pulled out his bloodthirsty blade and slashed at the maid. Murderous intent suddenly arose in the study!
"ah!"
An Lan was stunned, completely frightened by Zhao Xi's ferocity.
Seeing that the dark red war blade was about to land on the maid's head, the seemingly fragile girl suddenly flew back. At the same time, she threw the silver plate, teapot and snacks in her hand towards Zhao Xi.
The maid's movements were as fast as a ghost. Zhao Xi's sword actually failed.
He avoided the flying tea tray and did not pursue him. Instead, he stood in front of the desk to protect An Lan behind him.
The maid retreated to the door, with surprise in her eyes: "How did you see through me?"
Her voice was extremely soft, with a hint of teasing charm. When she spoke, two sharp fangs poked out from the corners of her lips, but her face did not change at all.
vampire!
An Lan understood immediately: "You are not Sally!"
Sally is the name of her personal maid, who is usually responsible for serving tea and water. This vampire obviously sneaked in disguised as Sally, and its intention can be understood without even thinking.
The female vampire grinned: "My name is Elaine!"
Her eyes always fell on Zhao Xi: "Strong Paladin, you haven't answered my question yet!"
In fact, even Anlan was very curious about this question, because even she didn't see through the other party's disguise.
You must know that Sally is the person next to her, and she is very familiar with her.
Zhao Xi smiled and said: "Since you want to know, it doesn't matter if I tell you. I didn't see through your disguise, I heard it."
The vampire girl Elaine was even more curious: "Listen? How to listen?"
If she wasn't in a hostile position, this NPC girl would be very cute, and her two blood-sucking fangs are very cute.
Zhao Xi was not in a hurry to take action and explained patiently: "Your disguise is naturally flawless. Even the Baron didn't see through it. How could I see through it? It's just that I have been here for two days and I am not aware of Sally's footsteps.
We are already very familiar with each other. Your steps are much lighter than hers, which is obviously abnormal."
"Actually just now..." he continued: "I'm not completely sure, I'm just giving it a try."
"So that's it!"
Elaine suddenly realized: "Then I will pay attention next time. Thank you for your advice, Mr. Paladin!"
She lifted up her long skirt and bowed to Zhao Xi. When she straightened up, she smiled and said, "You must have been informing your companions just now, right? It's a pity that they can't come back for the time being."
Zhao Xi's heart sank, because the other party was right. Fang Xu, Ye Qianqian and others who had been deliberately arranged to search outside were ambushed by the enemy. The team channel was already in chaos!
Fang Xu roared: "Boss, there are so many of them. Just hold on and wait for us to kill them!"
Ye Qianqian was impatient: "Stop talking, just listen to my command now!"
Li Shuai complained: "They have already planned it and are waiting for us!"
The main members of Team Yangmei cannot be counted on for the time being. Zhao Xi's plan of luring the snake out of the hole seems to have failed. The opponent is obviously well prepared, and I believe Yi Lian will not come alone to assassinate him.
"You vampires are lurking deep enough in the castle..."
His eyes suddenly turned cold: "Everyone else, please get out!"
Boom! Boom!
As soon as Zhao Xi finished speaking, he heard two loud noises, and the walls to the left and right of the door exploded. Two figures jumped into the room like lightning and appeared on Elian's left and right.
Zhao Xi raised his hand and cast two insights in succession. The visitors were also two vampires, both at level 25!
They were dressed in black gentleman's gifts, with tall cylindrical hats and red bow ties. They had disgusting smiles on their blue-gray faces, and each held a shining silver rapier in their hands.
Elaine curled her lips and said, "I guess you are not unprepared, right? There's no point in hiding it anymore!"
Zhao Xi really admired the other party. He didn't look like an NPC controlled by the system. He had cunning comparable to a real person.
But this doesn't mean that he has to listen to the other party's words.
"kill!"
Zhao Xi took off the bloodthirsty war shield with his backhand and suddenly rushed towards the vampires.
The two vampires looked at each other and stepped forward to stand in front of Elaine. Side by side, they raised their thin swords and stabbed at Zhao Xi. Their movements were exactly the same, and the sword blades pierced the air and made a sound similar to the spit of a poisonous snake.
A letter-like scoff!
But when the weapons of both sides were about to collide, Zhao Xi suddenly stopped. The battle shield held in his left hand disappeared without a trace, and a dark gold bottle was held in his hand.
Both vampires were stunned, and then continued to thrust forward with their swords.
In the flash of lightning, Zhao Xi took half a step back, raised his left arm and swung it hard, and the liquid in the bottle flew out and splashed on their faces!
Zhi~
The two vampires suddenly felt as if they had been splashed with concentrated sulfuric acid, their faces showed signs of severe corrosion, wisps of white smoke rose up, and the tremendous pain caused them to involuntarily let out shrill screams.
-2500!
-2500!
Two huge damage figures suddenly rose, and the vampires' HP dropped by half in an instant!
"Holy water!"
Elaine screamed as she smelled the scent that disgusted and frightened her the most.
That's right, what Zhao Xi is holding is holy water, a precious item that is extremely lethal to dark and evil monsters. Since he dares to persuade Anlan to use his own strategy of luring the snake out of the hole, he must be careful not to be swallowed by the poisonous snake.
This bottle of holy water was a gift from the Holy Church to Anlan, and it has always been kept in the Lord's Mansion. Zhao Xi only learned of its existence through his communication with Anlan, otherwise he would not have set up a trap so boldly.
What we can know is that holy water is one of the key props to complete this plot task, and if he had not completed the previous tasks and won enough trust from Anlan, Zhao Xi would not have known this secret!
Details determine success or failure. Regardless of whether this mission is successfully completed in the end, Zhao Xi has learned a lot and has a deeper understanding of this unprecedented virtual game!
