"Vampires! They said they were blood-sucking monsters, but I think they were vampires. A group of vampires who couldn't control their bloodthirsty desires. They attacked the town, and many people in the city died. All quietly at night.
They died silently. At first, the city officials told everyone not to panic. They would send more people to patrol at night to catch these evil creatures. However, many days passed and there was still no sound. The gallows in the square was originally
It was meant for vampires, but the next morning the mutilated body of a homeless man turned up."
Laheim said, with a hint of fear in his eyes. Apparently, he still had fresh memories of the murder that occurred in Erengrad. Rhodes guessed that this was the reason why he took the trouble to come to this remote country from the big city.
Alvis was right about what he said. The little dwarf could always predict something before it happened, and then let people prepare measures in advance. If the Iron Ring City really wanted Dean's arrogant second-generation official to take power,
There's no telling what's going to happen. At least, there are already signs of Slaanesh's corruption. The indulgent enjoyment in the city seems to have forgotten the danger that may come at any time.
"Have you seen those vampires? Or vampire monsters. Sorry, I also think these are just some vampire monsters. Vampires generally don't bite human corpses into pieces..."
Rhodes asked while observing the other person's face.
I saw that Lahem's expression became more solemn.
"Yes, I did see it with my own eyes. One night when the tide was high..." He said, pouring himself a full glass of wine, as if to be brave. The wife beside him held her husband's hand, indicating that enough was enough.
.
"He was probably slightly taller than ordinary people, and his body was very strong, but he still had the limbs and head of a human being. I didn't see his face clearly, and I didn't dare. In fact, I was still some distance away from him at that time.
A business partner came out of the hotel after discussing business and was about to go home when he saw this scene."
Rahim took a sip of wine and continued speaking——
"I saw him dragging an old woman into the alley, and then a terrifying scream came from the alley. The crowd retreated and fled in all directions. Or they called the patrolling guards. Wait until the patrolling guards arrived.
Only then did everyone have the courage to follow the guards into the alley. You can't imagine that scene, it's so heartbreaking. A big hole was opened in the old man's neck, and the blood vessels and muscles inside were bitten. Blood flowed down her neck.
It flowed all the way to her thighs. It was obvious that she struggled in the last moments of her life, but how could an unarmed old man be a vampire's opponent? Her heart was pulled out, and there was a bloody mess on her chest. The guards followed the blood and tried to find the murderer.
Ghost. But they quickly lost track of them because they found that the blood stains disappeared by the canal..."
"It jumped into the river?"
Rhodes asked.
I still have a certain understanding of the vampire Rhodes in the medieval world. The vampires in the Old World are actually not as scary as shown in some movies and TV shows. They suck human blood and then transform humans into vampires.
In fact, in the medieval world, most vampires did not kill many people. On the contrary, in most cases, they relied on humans to provide them with productivity. Some vampire families also had a large number of human supporters. Moreover, and
Unlike most film and television works, vampires in the medieval world did not need to take a bite and transfuse their own blood into humans to transform into humans. They required a series of rituals to transform a human into a vampire, which required the person's blood to be transformed first.
After sucking it dry and injecting your own blood into it, after completing the transformation ritual, the vampire's ability will be greatly reduced and it will take a long time to recover.
Due to the desire to obtain immortality and powerful power, many humans actually long to become vampires. As for the vampire incident in Erengrad, Rhodes speculated that it may be the work of the Strigor family. The vampires of this family and those of other families
Vampires are different. Due to historical reasons, most of the vampires of the Strieger family make a living by sucking the blood of animals, such as bats, ground snakes, rats, etc. In places where no light is seen, they make a living by sucking the blood of various creatures, even
Suck the blood from corpses. Over time, the vampires in this family look less like humans and ghosts. Some vampires suck the blood from corpses for many years and grow like ghouls. Due to long-term sucking of blood from animals and corpses
Blood, most of the vampires of the Stryger family have lost their minds and become bloodthirsty and crazy.
Judging from the descriptions of Alvis and Laheim, Rhodes guessed that the vampire incident that occurred in Erengrad City was caused by the madmen of the Strig family. Only vampires from this family would attack with such madness.
Humans, kill them, even dismember them.
"Yeah, the guards couldn't catch them at all. I doubt the guards themselves were scared."
"Did the vampire finally get caught?"
Rhodes asked.
"I caught it. But it wasn't the guards who caught it. It's said to be a group of mysterious men in black."
"Did you see the man in black?"
"No. There are rumors that they were sent by the Snow Queen. But no one has seen their true faces. In short, Erengrad is not as beautiful as it seems. Because of the arrival of vampires, the city has been in chaos."
Laheim sighed. He is just a small nobleman and has no ability to change anything.
Although from Laheim's words, Rhodes could only get a glimpse of Erengrad's face from the side, there is one thing that must be taken action. Just like Alves said a few days ago, the North must prepare to receive refugees.
It's over.
Thinking of this, Rhodes immediately called the butler Muros and arranged for him to purchase more food and tents. It would definitely be too late to build a temporary house. This is not building blocks. It cannot be completed in a day or two. What is a little dramatic is that
, a year ago I was worried about the lack of people in Blackhammer Castle, but now, because of the chaos in a big city in the north, a large number of people may flow in. Although most people may give priority to the south, like Kislev
If you go to a big city to take refuge, there must be a small number of people who will go in the opposite direction. As long as one percent of the civilians in Erlengrad come to Black Hammer Castle, Black Hammer Castle will not be able to bear it...
