Chapter 253 Vampire Demon
Maybe because of concern, Henrik, who kept talking, became a little silent after coming to Crescent City.
He sat in the carriage without saying a word, not knowing what he was thinking.
"If we find clues about that thing later..."
"Clang!"
The carriage bumped, and Roger looked outside, and the city wall behind him was gradually moving away. He glanced at Henrik and understood the meaning of the latter's words.
Henrik wanted to deal with the female Night Demon alone.
"I can only send you here."
The speed gradually decreased and the carriage stopped.
Roger and the others walked out of the car. The Crescent City in the distance was almost impossible to see. There was a wilderness around him. A black crow fell from the dead trees and screamed harshly.
"Please follow the path marked on the map. The wilderness in the outer area of Crescent City is very dangerous."
The driver sighed.
"This is an extremely weird place because you don't know where the monster will appear."
Roger nodded and watched the carriage heading in the direction he was coming. Compared to the curse land he had been to before, Crescent City and the surrounding area were too large.
He has not understood many of the rules here. In addition, his previous experience in the fishing village also made Roger know that the wilderness outside the Crescent City is very dangerous.
He opened the map and walked forward for about an hour before he arrived at the village marked with the mission.
There is a very strange phenomenon here. The more people live, the lower the chance of monsters appearing and the safer it is.
When they came to the small village, it was noon, but the village was silent like a grave, and there was no sign of activity on the road.
From a distance, there were only a few families with smoke rising.
Henrik originally planned to come forward to ask, but before he could get closer, his eyes that were close by the window were quickly away, and then the sound of the door bolt being pulled up.
"What's going on with the people here?"
"I'll do it."
Roger took the initiative to stand up and followed the prompts on the mission information to come to a wooden door in the village.
"We came from Crescent City to investigate the mummy bodies that had died before."
A muddy eye flashed through the crack of the door. His eyes stayed on Roger for a moment, and a hint of surprise appeared in his eyes.
Squeak.
The wooden door was opened, revealing a face covered with gullies.
"Who are you……"
He looked at Roger in surprise.
"I came here to investigate the incident of being attacked by monsters in the village, so that I can take us to see the bodies?"
"Oh……"
The old man's throat seemed to be blocked by a mouthful of thick phlegm, and then he nodded, "Come with me."
Roger handed Henrik a wink, who nodded and walked to the rest of the village.
"When did the monster attack begin?"
"It was about 5 days ago."
The old man frowned and thought for a moment.
"The first one to die was Pete, an old bachelor, but on the night before his death, someone seemed to hear a faint laugh from his room."
"Life is already very difficult. In such a world, who else can laugh out loud?"
The two walked away from the village.
There is a straw shed on the hillside, and there are several corpses lying side by side.
"One every night. If this continues, all the people in the village will die!"
The old man sighed, his turbid eyes were confused.
Roger stepped forward and carefully looked at each corpse.
"It's indeed the essence and blood on the body that was sucked away!"
A slightly surprised voice came from behind, and Henrik followed at some point. Roger handed a questioning look, but Henrik shook his head.
Obviously, the people in the village were very resistant to Henrik, and his plan that was always invincible in the Bordeaux region would not work here.
Five corpses lie side by side under the shed, all of which are male. Because the essence and blood on their bodies are sucked dry, each of them looks very short.
As mentioned in the mission introduction, even if you become a mummy, you can easily distinguish the smile on the corpse's face.
Seeing this smile, Henrik couldn't help but shudder.
"But five consecutive days, I only killed one person every day."
Roger glanced at Henrik, with a little doubt on his face, "Does she have a purpose, or does she have limited strength to kill one?"
"This is the usual trick that woman uses. She likes to play with other people's emotions. According to her habits, she should come back tonight. We just need to stay in this village..."
There was an impatient light flashing in Henrik's eyes.
"Wait a minute."
At this moment, Roger suddenly noticed a special red dot on the neck of the corpse. The color of the corpse blended with the red dots on the skin, which was difficult to distinguish for a while.
"This wound..."
Roger glanced at Henrik.
Henrik's eyes were slightly condensed. He bent down and quickly inspected the other five corpses. When he stood up, the expression on his face had changed color.
"This kind of wound was not created by the female night demon." A strange expression appeared on his face.
"That thing prefers to use the tongue. Their tongues are thin and long, and will slide directly into the body along the victim's mouth..."
After hearing Henrik's description, Roger couldn't help but shudder. It was awful to think about it.
What exactly has this guy experienced?
"Isn't it her?"
Roger was a little confused.
Henrik also showed a hint of hesitation on his face.
"Now I can't be sure, I can only wait until tonight."
The two discussed for a while, then turned around the village and found a supreme point. All that was left was to wait patiently.
After eating a little, I rested for a while, time flew by, the sun set and night fell.
There were no modern facilities, and at night the whole village was as dark as the mud. As the last few lights disappeared, the surroundings fell into complete darkness.
Time passed by little by little. As midnight approached, a faint sound of wind broke out, and a faint black shadow passed by from a distance and then fell on the branches at the village entrance.
There was no moonlight this night, and there was no five fingers around him, but even in this case, Roger, who activated the hunter's vision, could see the black shadows on the branches in the distance.
It was a human-shaped upright creature with a furry head and a pair of wide flesh wings on its back. The edges of the wings were as sharp as bone knives.
The thing's eyes were thin and long, and his mouth was protruding outward. You could see the mouthpiece like a straw when opening and closing.
"It's a vampire."
Henrik whispered, his eyes showing a hint of disappointment.
Obviously they were looking for the wrong target.
Before killing humans, this thing will inject a special toxin into the other party's body. The toxin can numb the nerves and make people hallucinate.
And they can take this opportunity to enjoy every drop of essence and blood from their prey.
"Fix it first."
Roger responded in a low voice.
This thing has the ability to fly, and it is best to kill it in one blow.
Henrik tightly grasped the gun in his hand, "You can just take action, if it jumps into the air..."
"Click!"
