Naturally, the Vampire Marquis would not agree to Ning Bu's question so readily.
His brain is certainly not as good as those treacherous humans, but he has been able to crush many conspiracies with his strong strength.
According to his habit, he would not think there was anything wrong with facing such a demon hunter who was much weaker than him. After all, those humans were almost always like this. When their schemes and tricks hit him, he would kill them in return. There was no exception.
However, when facing the guy in front of him, the vampire felt a sense of uneasiness.
Such emotions are quite rare.
Vampires are more like animals than humans.
They always have extraordinary intuition about things that may threaten their safety.
The Vampire Marquis looked at Ning Buwen with some suspicion. He didn't know why he always felt that the guy in front of him made him feel like he was being targeted by his natural enemy.
"What? Mr. Marquis, you don't even dare to agree to the cooperation request from a small demon hunter like me?" Ning Buwen looked at him with a smile, as if looking at an ignorant child.
To be honest, anyone with a little self-respect would be furious if Ning Buwen looked at him like that.
"Yes, why not?" the vampire marquis answered immediately. When he realized that he was being provoked, he couldn't help but add a few more words.
"It's just that inheritance. I'll only give you one tenth of it. It's up to you whether you want it or not." Vampires are a very proud race, and they naturally won't allow themselves to be fooled by a tiny human.
"That won't do." Ning Buwen knew that this vampire would not give in so quickly. "It's half as it is. If Mr. Marquis is not interested in cooperating, then I will go find someone else."
"Oh, you're here and you still want to leave?" A sinister smile appeared on the face of the vampire marquis. "Wait until I turn you into a blood servant. Not to mention one tenth, even one thousandth of you will be gone!"
Ning Buwen looked at the vampire marquis who suddenly changed his expression, and didn't care at all, but slowly stretched out the tone.
"Why do you think, Monsieur Marquis, that I came here alone?"
Let's go back in time.
"The footprints disappeared here." A knight stroked the marks on the ground and said, "After that, Mr. Nicholas should have been taken up to the sky. This is a common trick used by vampires."
"Take it to the sky?" The other knight's face turned grim when he heard this.
The biggest advantage of vampires is that they can fly.
Therefore, when they hunt vampires, they usually choose places with roofs to limit the vampires' ability to fly in the air, so as to prevent them from escaping. This also means that when the vampires leave the ground and fly into the sky, they actually have nothing to check the vampires.
"Don't worry." Isaac looked very calm. "Maybe we should see what this demon hound is capable of. Demon hounds are different from ordinary hounds. They have extraordinary abilities and are the best helpers to deal with these evil demons."
"Woof." Xiao Xin howled to show his presence, and then took the initiative to lead these people up the mountain.
"Can it understand us? Such a smart witchhound is rare."
"Yes, only the demon dogs of high-level demon hunters have such abilities. I didn't expect that Mr. Nicholas himself has average abilities, but raising a demon dog is very impressive."
The knights are all real talents, so it's natural to see that Ning doesn't ask how good the identity of this "demon hunter" is. It's rare that he can get the certification of a demon hunter in such a small place. If he were in a big city, he would be at most an apprentice.
Solomon and Cass looked at each other, and there was something different in the way they looked at Xiaoxin.
They had never seen a high-level demon hunter's demon hound, so they didn't know what they looked like. But Xiao Xin's current performance reminded them of a player with obvious characteristics.
For Emissary players, the strength of the contracted beast is equal to their own strength. The stronger the beast, the stronger they are. Of course, the number of contracted beasts is generally not limited to one. As long as you keep upgrading your physique, you can have more beasts.
But most of the time, players have to spend a lot of effort just to raise one, so where would they find the spare money to raise a second or third one
This demon hound is so smart, how can one not be suspicious
Today, the possibility that Nicholas is a player has increased.
With the help of Shin-chan, they ran all the way and soon arrived at the vampire castle in the heavy fog.
In such a dark night and such a dense forest, it was difficult to distinguish the intersection even in the daytime. If you rush in rashly, you might be trapped to death in the forest. But for wild animals, it was almost impossible for them to be trapped by this method.
As long as they follow Shin-chan, those seemingly difficult and dangerous obstacles are hardly a problem.
Xiao Xin's luck has always been much better than Ning Buwen's.
Both of them live in a mental hospital, but Ning Bu Wen is still having an affair with someone, while it already has a wife and children. Comparing them, I really don’t know who is more pitiful, the owner or the pet.
"There are quite a few vampires in here." The Knight Commander drew his sword first, "Get ready to guard the Bishop."
"Yes!" the knights answered in unison.
Inside the castle.
The vampires soon discovered the arrival of those people from the church.
How is that possible
They have set up so many obstacles outside the castle. Even if they know the route, it is impossible for them to come directly to them without triggering any obstacles, right
But unfortunately, these people from the church appeared like gods descending from the sky and arrived in front of their castle in an instant.
There were less than twenty vampires in the castle, most of them were low-level vampires. But outside the castle, there was a bishop and fifty knights.
If this fight comes to a head, it's hard to say who will win or lose.
"Mr. Marquis, there are many people from the church outside."
"This human was the one who brought this here. I'll kill him!"
Several vampires looked at Ning Buwen with malicious eyes, wishing they could suck Ning Buwen dry on the spot.
It was not easy for them vampires to find a gathering place, but today it was destroyed in his hands.
"I know." The Vampire Marquis's senses would only be more acute than theirs. How could he not know where the people outside came from
It turns out that this is the confidence of this demon hunter.
"You lured them here on purpose." The Marquis was very sure of this. It was all the work of the demon hunter in front of him.
"I've said before, I'm sincerely seeking cooperation." Ning Buwen blinked his eyes, his face showing as innocent as possible, "If Marquis, you can agree to my request, I promise that none of you will be hurt, and you will be able to leave here quietly. But if Marquis, you want to kill me, you can't blame me for fighting back."
"Are you threatening me?"
"No, this is not a threat, this is cooperation." Ning Buwen shook his head, "As long as the two of us cooperate, the inheritance will definitely be in my hands. I only want half because I need to speed up and get the inheritance before others. Mr. Marquis, if you miss a partner like me, no one you meet in the future will be as easy to talk to as me."
The Vampire Marquis looked at Ning Buwen and couldn't help but feel conflicted.
When I woke up, I should have bitten the guy in front of me to death and sucked his blood. Otherwise, I wouldn't have ended up being threatened by such a human being.
Regret it now.
I regret it so much!
Ning Buwen was not in a hurry. He knew that the vampire in front of him would definitely agree to cooperate with him.
To put it bluntly, what Ning Buwen can take advantage of is nothing more than the information asymmetry.
Bishop Isaac and his men thought that Ning Buwen was captured because he had something the vampires wanted. However, the vampires would think that Ning Buwen was some big shot in the church and would not dare to attack him.
Who made this vampire marquis sleep for a hundred years? He has no idea how fast the outside world changes!
The enemies outside are about to break in, but the demon hunter in front of them is watching.
For the first time, the vampire experienced what it meant to be caught between a rock and a hard place.
"Okay, I promise you." The Vampire Marquis gritted his teeth and could only agree to Ning Buwen's cooperation request, "I am different from you humans. Blood clansmen always keep their words. What are you going to do now so that we can leave without any harm?"
"It's very simple." Ning Bu Wen looked at him with a smile, as if he was not surprised at all by his choice.
This calm and composed look makes vampires even more angry.
"First, please tell me the news about the inheritance you know, Mr. Marquis." Ning Buwen said affirmatively, "Once you have finished speaking, I will naturally know what to do. Don't worry, we still have some time."
For the first time, the vampire felt his teeth itching.
One day, I will suck the other person dry, absolutely!
Outside the castle.
"Bishop, let's just break in." The Knight Commander gripped the sword tightly in his hand, keeping his eyes and ears open, wishing he could remember everything around him in his mind so that he could react as quickly as possible to protect the bishop.
"This door is attached to the power of the devil. You step back and I will take over." Isaac shook his head slowly to stop the Knight Commander's actions. Instead, he held the cross and placed his hands on the door while praying, trying to dissolve the power.
This doesn't take much time.
After about two or three minutes, the door opened automatically.
However, when the knights rushed forward without hesitation, the vampires were on high alert, led by the vampire marquis, who seemed to have been waiting for them for a long time.
"Woof! Woof!"
Xiaoxin called out continuously.
Ning Buwen was seen being carried on the vampire's shoulders, his hands hanging limply, and he looked like he had fainted from being tortured.
"Bishop Isaac, right?" The Vampire Marquis said to Isaac, whose clothes clearly made him the center of the crowd, and recognized him instantly.
He had met many bishops of the church, but he had to admit that the strength of the bishop in front of him was very good. Even if he fought with all his strength, the outcome would probably be uncertain.
Such a powerful bishop has come here, which shows that the secret of this place is no longer a secret in the eyes of some people.
But even so, the Vampire Marquis still felt that although this bishop was strong and difficult to deal with, what was even more difficult to deal with was the guy who knocked him out after he finished telling him the method.
Be cruel to others and be even crueler to yourself.
He didn't even consider the possibility that he would go back on his word and kill him directly.
No, the Marquis thought, I really want to kill him.
But if you want to get the inheritance, you can't kill him.
"Are you here for him too?" The Vampire Marquis crossed his hands in front of his chest, looking very relaxed. "I didn't expect that after a hundred years, the people in the church and I would still have to work hard to fight for the person who opened the inheritance."
Isaac's eyes flickered slightly, and he couldn't help but look at Ning Buwen who had fainted over there.
Naturally, Solomon and Casso both turned their eyes over.
If what this vampire said is true, then this person is not a player, but a real NPC!
It’s the crucial one.
"What a pity! I was just about to turn him into my blood servant." The Vampire Marquis looked very regretful.
This regret is 100% real, and I am not afraid of being seen by them.
"It's a pity that I can't succeed. There's no point in keeping him here." The Vampire Marquis lifted Ning Buwen up with one hand, "How about we make a deal? I can give this person to you, but all my people must leave here unscathed."
"bishop."
"Bishop, we can't let them go."
"You can't believe what these vampires say, Bishop."
The knights couldn't help but persuade him. They didn't know much about Isaac's situation, but if so many vampires were let go, there would be chaos.
"Think it over carefully, Bishop." The Vampire Marquis looked at him with a smile, "Although I may not be able to kill you, I can still kill him in a blink of an eye. If he dies, the worst that can happen is that I can just wait another hundred years, but you humans can't live that long."
"Okay." Isaac put his hands behind his back without making a sound. "I promise you, as long as you hand this person over to me, I will let you go and ensure your safety."
"Great." The Vampire Marquis laughed, "Then we'll leave first, Bishop."
The vampires turned into bats and flew towards the door.
Isaac took the initiative to make way for them, and the knights did not dare to move.
When the last bat flew into the sky, Ning Buwen was thrown directly down from the air.
He was caught by the knights.
"Woof, woof." Xiao Xin licked Ning Buwen's hanging arm, his voice a little whimpering.
"Bishop, look!"
"It's a blood contract!"
"This vampire really has bad intentions."
"Bishop, what should we do? If he turns into a blood servant, we will have saved him in vain."
"Calm down." Isaac stopped the knights from saying anything. "Nicholas is a demon hunter. I will treat him before he falls asleep and help him contact the blood contract. You can rest assured. He must not be lost. Do you understand?"
The knights responded reluctantly.
———————————
"There is an ancient news circulating among our blood clan." The vampire marquis reluctantly spoke out the secret that had been hidden for many years.
"In a certain demon's sleeping place, his legacy is stored. As long as you can obtain his legacy, you can have the power of the demon. Even if you are a little vampire who has just been embraced and has no title, you can immediately transform into a prince after obtaining this power. For us vampires, this is the only way to surpass high-level vampires. Therefore, there are always people trying to find this place."
“I am one of them.”
"My ancestors spent a lot of effort to find out where the demons might exist, right in this city. But at that time, there were already humans living here, so I had to find a way to drive them away first, but I didn't expect that this would offend the church."
"The church has long known about the unusual movements among us vampires, and this secret has also been known to the people in the church. They also want this power. Many of the demon hunters under their church have the power that we call evil demons. But the information they received was incomplete after all. They didn't know that it would take a special blood curse and time to open the inheritance land. Of course, I will tell you this after we find the inheritance land."
Ning Buwen knew that this so-called inheritance was actually "bloodline strengthening and improvement". For vampires and players like them, it was an impossible power, no wonder so many players came to this dungeon.
However, there seem to be only a few players who can successfully obtain this power.
"Have you ever entered that inheritance place?"
“No.” The vampire’s face darkened. “Only demon hunters can enter there. Pure priests or non-humans like us cannot enter. I was ambushed by the church before the inheritance land was opened.”
"So that's how it is. It's pretty much the same as I imagined." Ning Buwen already had an idea in his mind after listening to the vampire's account of the whole story.
What this vampire knows is obviously crucial, but it does not completely solve the puzzle to pass the level.
After all, he had never personally entered the so-called place of inheritance, and everything was just his imagination. Perhaps the real difficulty lay after entering the place of inheritance.
Ning Bu Wen had no hope at all about the nature of Pandora's games.
"After listening to the story, it's your turn." The vampire marquis hated Ning Buwen's look of "I know everything" and "Just as I expected".
This human's blood must be so black and dirty that it is simply inedible.
"The information the church has received about the place of inheritance is incomplete, right?" Ning Bu Wen continued to ask.
"Of course." The vampire nodded. "I only know a lot of things after I personally experience them. The church knows there is such a place, but they don't know where it is. When they ambushed me that time, most of them were killed or injured. I'm afraid there won't be much news left."
Otherwise, he was not disturbed during the hundred years of his sleep, and he did not find anyone entering the place of inheritance after waking up, which proves that there must have been a gap in information on the church's side.
Human beings are such fragile and short-lived creatures.
"So, they have no idea how to open the inheritance land and how to obtain power."
"… The inheritance land does not need to be opened." The Vampire Marquis said, "It will automatically select nearby demon hunters to enter."
"No." Ning Buwen interrupted the Marquis, "If you want to leave safely, you must remember what I am going to say next."
"What do you have in mind?" The vampires were confused by Ning Buwen and had no idea what he was up to.
"It's very simple." Ning Buwen looked at the group of vampires and said, "You just need to hand me over and say a few words to them."
"A few words?"
"good."
It is better to hold your head high and be confident.
"The church doesn't know whether the land of inheritance needs someone to open it, nor does it know the specific conditions. Coincidentally, creating something out of nothing is exactly what I am good at." Ning Bu Wen adjusted his hair, a cunning light flashing in his eyes.
"From this moment on, I am the person who is needed to open the inheritance land. I am the key to open the inheritance land. You will all work hard to snatch me from the church."
"Oh, by the way, please have a vampire bite me and make a blood contract." Ning Buwen urged, "Hurry up, there's no time."
The vampires turned their attention to their boss.
The Marquis turned his head silently and pointed at one of his men.
"Go make a blood contract with him and bite harder." He always felt that the blood of this man must be poisonous, and he didn't want to drink it.
A little vampire designated by the Marquis had no choice but to go up reluctantly and bite Ning Buwen's neck.
The taste of the blood was actually okay, but this low-level vampire didn't dare drink too much and just took a bite and that was it.
"I will become the next core of the church, and I will have to rely on you to help cover it up. Only when I become the indispensable key to open the inheritance land will the people of the church take the initiative to approach me and tell me a lot of inside information."
The Vampire Marquis listened to Ning Buwen's words and could almost imagine what would happen next.
This demon hunter will definitely receive the church's greatest supply of resources and the strongest protection in a short period of time, and will definitely find a way to bring this person to the entrance of the land of inheritance.
Who made him the key
The only person who knew that Ning Buwen's key was a fake one was a vampire.
Even if the Vampire Marquis later clarified that Ning Buwen was not the key, it would only make the matter more obvious and no one would believe it.
The only thing we need to be particularly wary of is a person who cooperates with vampires and actually deceives the entire church openly.
This is like dancing on steel needles.
But Ning Buwen didn't seem to be afraid at all. Instead, he was very excited, just like those singing actors who were extremely excited before the stage play started.
"When the time comes, we will work together inside and outside. I will naturally wait for you at the inheritance site." Ning Buwen smiled and said to the vampires whose worldviews had been cleansed by Ning Buwen, "Next, it's your show time. Do a good job, vampires."
After saying that, Ning Bu Wen hit the pillar hard and successfully knocked himself unconscious.
The vampires were stunned.
This person is really cruel to himself.
It was not until the vampires flew high into the sky that they saw from afar Ning Buwen being taken away with special care by the people of the church, and a feeling of pity arose in their hearts.
Humans are so scary.
