"There is another person..."
After Chen Chen killed the paladin captain, he immediately remembered that there was another wizard who had escaped from here. However, it was too late to pursue him at this time. The wizard had already merged into the ruins of the city. Any further search is like looking for a needle in a haystack.
However, from the beginning until now, six people have been killed. Among them, only one wizard was left alive in the team just now, and a wizard and a rogue died in the other team. It seems that there should be ten more people. Four survived.
After thinking about it, Chen Chen searched around the corpses of this group of people, and sure enough he found many bottles and jars. In addition to some potions and some gold coins, there were also some things that Chen Chen couldn't name.
For example, there were some spices and a strange-looking badge. But after seeing the pattern of the badge, Chen Chen's eyes suddenly lit up.
This badge has a bloody rose tattooed on it, with blood still flowing on the stem, and behind the badge, there are a series of numbers.
This is…
Chen Chen turned around and looked at the top of the hall. The badge depicted on it was indeed exactly the same as this badge!
"In other words, this badge actually belongs to me?"
Chen Chen looked thoughtful, "Then if this string of numbers is correct, it should be the password for one of the four gates."
Seeing this, Chen Chen simply packed them all up and put them back in the attic of his castle.
If you want to find these props, you must first pass Chen Chen's level.
After doing all this, Chen Chen noticed that the sky began to light up slightly, and a ray of morning light appeared at the end of the sky. Obviously, one night was about to pass, and the next day ushered in.
At the same time, Chen Chen also felt that his power seemed to be slightly weakened. This was obviously a mandatory BUFF. During the day, the vampire's power would probably be reduced by one to two percent.
However, Chen Chen thought for a while and decided that he did not retreat into the passage inside the fireplace. It was like trying to catch a turtle in an urn. If the other party found him, he might not be able to escape, so Chen Chen simply went upstairs and found a room on the second floor. A room with a wide view is hidden inside.
In this way, if someone approaches the castle, he can detect it immediately, and he can also prevent the other party from finding the passage behind the fireplace.
After hiding, Chen Chen watched silently as the sky started to turn fish belly white and gradually became brighter. The original indigo color quickly faded, and the sky turned into a sky blue like glass, pure and flawless.
As the sun gradually rose, a plume of black smoke suddenly rose from the western gate of the city.
This black smoke rose straight up, and the tall city wall blocked the wind. However, after seeing the black smoke in the distance, Chen Chen couldn't help but frown.
Did the other party know that it was daytime and had restrained himself, so he dared to raise the smoke to cook
No, if these people are really a group of well-trained mercenaries, then they will definitely not make such a stupid mistake. At this time, this black smoke is like a trap, a way to attract themselves. The trap ahead.
Chen Chen has realized that although he is a vampire, even if ultraviolet rays are irradiated on his body, it will only cause burns on the surface of the skin. At this time, the wound on his arm has already healed unknowingly.
In other words, short-term exposure to the sun will actually only cause minor injuries to oneself, and will not turn into ashes after being exposed to a little exposure like in the movies or legends.
And this group of people seems to know themselves better than themselves, or they know vampires very well.
It's a pity that in addition to his strong physical strength, Chen Chen also has more powerful field energy. Most of those people before were killed by Chen Chen's ubiquitous field energy.
Thinking of this, Chen Chen was a little ready to make a move. He was thinking about whether he should take advantage of the other party's miscalculation of his own strength and kill all the teams near the black smoke. However, he gave up after thinking about it.
There are still two nights left, and there is no need to worry unless this group of people find one of the other three badges.
However, this group of people came here on a commission to find treasures and kill themselves, which meant that unless they suffered heavy losses and thought the matter was impossible, they would not leave easily.
As for the consciousness stealer mixed in the crowd, Chen Chen didn't have any special method for the time being. It was best to let nature take its course and kill it while killing this group of NPCs.
The black smoke didn't rise for long, as if it knew that Chen Chen wouldn't be fooled, it quickly went out again, and what followed was the same silence as before.
Chen Chen could not see any trace of human activity, and no one had entered the castle. However, at some unknown time, he found that the doors of some nearby buildings were opened and then closed again.
Obviously, that group of people are still searching for clues against themselves in various rooms in the city.
It wasn't until three or four hours passed and the sun set again that Chen Chen stood up again and stretched slightly.
The heat of the day faded away little by little, and the familiar power struck again, penetrating Chen Chen's whole body.
Chen Chen suddenly realized that he seemed to like this feeling of approaching darkness.
However, after darkness fell, he did not act immediately. Instead, he waited in the castle for a while. After feeling that no one had sneaked in, he walked out of the castle and approached the west gate where the black smoke rose during the day.
This time, Chen Chen was not very fast. It was not until he reached the gate that he saw a bonfire piled up on the ground in front of the western gate. At this time, the bonfire was extinguished and only streaks of smoke remained. But there was no sign of anyone grilling food or taking a rest.
Sure enough, the black smoke during the day was a trap.
Thinking of this, Chen Chen looked at the surrounding houses. His field of vision swept through the houses without any blind spots, and he quickly found clues in some rooms.
Chen Chen's figure flashed suddenly, and the next second he appeared on the first floor of the room. He only saw a few scratches on the ground here. It seemed that someone wearing armor had been lying here before, and inside the room The doors were all open, and there were even signs of violent lock breaking.
There is also an iron box in one of the rooms, but the iron box has been opened by someone, and the objects placed inside are missing.
one two three four five six seven eight…
Chen Chen found a total of eight traces in the surrounding houses.
If there were eight people, that is to say, were they the two teams that he sensed last after he killed a wizard and a rogue
At this time, Chen Chen already knew that there were four teams in this group of invaders. In one team, only one wizard was killed, and the other two teams were now the eight people. So from the current point of view, Chen Chen only has one team left that he has not yet contacted.
Thinking of this, Chen Chen had a vague understanding that maybe the consciousness stealer was hidden in the last team...
However, given that the opponent only has five points of wisdom, what will it do and why should it hide
Chen Chen found that he might be able to guess the thoughts of smart people, but he could not guess the thoughts of monsters like this. No one knew what they were thinking.
Thinking of this, Chen Chen returned to the castle, but when he approached the castle, he suddenly smelled a strong smell of blood. Chen Chen had never been so sensitive to the smell of blood, but at this time, he was in the battlefield after all. Although the smell of blood was not as normal as usual. The same thing, but to Chen Chen, the smell of blood actually contained a hint of fishy and sweet taste.
However, this kind of misleading was not very tempting to the determined Chen Chen. He flew straight to the castle and immediately saw a trace of blood flowing out of the ground inside the castle.
Someone seemed to be injured.
Chen Chen glanced at the trap inside. Sure enough, all the spikes flew out from the floor tiles above his head and were directly nailed to the ground densely. At the same time, several spikes were missing. Only a pool of blood was left.
The line of blood extended from the castle to the group of houses behind it.
Chen Chen's expression flashed twice. He was just about to catch up with the blood trail, but he was stopped again. "The spike trap is shot from the top of the head. If you are not prepared, you will definitely die directly. It is difficult to cause bleeding, but But he survived, not to mention the amount of blood loss was not much... In other words, someone is setting an ambush again for this trap? "
Thinking of this, Chen Chen smiled again, "Interesting..."
He did not directly follow the line of blood, but returned to the castle. At the same time, he stretched out his hand, and the spikes popped out of the ground one by one, and then fell into Chen Chen's palm like a baby swallow returning to its nest.
Afterwards, Chen Chen walked to the other side of the second floor of the castle, climbed through the window from the back and left.
At this time, his field power was fully activated, and he tried his best to detect human traces around him. At the same time, he made a circle and probed from the side towards the direction with traces of blood. Finally, after walking forward for hundreds of meters, he finally came to a small place. A pile of bandages were seen in the square.
In the surrounding houses of the small square, several adventurers were waiting quietly. Sure enough, this was still a trap.
The first thing Chen Chen discovered were two soldiers with slovenly beards. One of them was only about 1.6 meters tall, but his head was as big as an average person's. He also had a big nose and was holding two giant axes. Chen Chen immediately recognized that this was a dwarf warrior.
The other person was an ordinary human warrior, and not a paladin, because Chen Chen did not feel the threat from him that only a paladin could.
In a house near the two people, there was a man in black who was ready to attack. He wrapped himself in black clothes, only a pair of eyes were exposed, and he did not wear any armor. Just two scimitars hung on his waist, looking like an assassin.
There are already three people in these two rooms alone.
Chen Chen didn't know where the remaining people were, but he could figure it out. The remaining people were definitely among the houses surrounding the small square. However, at this time, these people were already in contact with each other, and it was impossible for Chen Chen to enter the small square in person. Square went to look for the remaining people, and if he continued to approach this group of people, they would inevitably be noticed by them.
Chen Chen still remembered the distance of forty meters.
Unless Chen Chen can get in without alerting most people...
Thinking of this, Chen Chen immediately narrowed his eyes. He first selected the assassin in black, and then he approached the opponent step by step. Although the limit distance of field energy is fifty meters, the control of field energy at this distance is both accurate and powerful. All have great depletion.
Forty-five meters, forty-four meters, forty-three meters...
When he was 43 meters away from the black-clothed assassin, the opponent suddenly trembled. He quickly stood up and was about to pull out the scimitar from his waist, but his waist was suddenly empty!
Whoosh!
There was a sound of metal piercing flesh, and the assassin in black felt a chill on his neck, and then a large stream of blood spurted out from his neck!
Chi chi chi…
The assassin in black kept struggling, but he was still unable to break free from the invisible restraints. He opened his mouth, but his scimitar had already cut his throat, making him unable to make a sound.
Half a minute later, the black-clothed assassin completely collapsed and gradually entered death.
Although Chen Chen was far away, he knew that the smell of blood must be spreading from the scene, and he had to kill as many as possible before others could smell the smell of blood.
Therefore, Chen Chen did not stop moving. He once again set his target on the two warriors who were staying together. At the same time, with a flick of his finger, four spikes flew towards the houses of the two warriors at a slow speed.
Buzz…
The four spikes were like four feathers. They fluttered into the building through the cracks in the door and window, and floated silently above the two people's heads. It was only then that Chen Chen raised his right hand. At the same time, he suddenly clenched his fist hard!
Whoosh!
In an instant, the four spikes suddenly accelerated and penetrated into the two people's open eyes at a lightning speed!
"ah!"
"ah!!"
Two screams came from inside the house. Chen Chen did not continue to kill the other party, but immediately retreated and retreated into the shadows behind him.
"Roar!"
Sure enough, outside the small square, a roar suddenly came from one of the hidden buildings, and then a warrior with a white halo rushed out of it. This warrior was burlier than the paladin captain Chen Chen killed. The silvery white halo is also thicker.
At this time, Chen Chen was already hiding in the shadows. He watched the paladin charging towards him with an expressionless face. However, when he saw clearly the weapon held by the opponent, his pupils suddenly shrank.
What the opponent is holding is actually the long sword with no embellishment and simple shape that he discovered first
Thinking of this, Chen Chen's expression suddenly darkened. It was obvious that this long sword was prepared for the Paladin, so it would cause strong harm to him.
But now, the long sword has actually been found by the opponent. As a result, the danger level has definitely soared. Chen Chen is not even sure that his own field ability can block the opponent's chop!
