Monarch of Evernight

Chapter 54: Dark dealings

Views:

Just after three o'clock in the afternoon, the sky began to darken.

When the remaining sunlight was blocked by a distant upper continent, Qianye woke up on time, ate and drank enough, and then checked his physical condition. He got another little surprise, that is, most of the internal organs that were damaged during the previous cultivation were healed. It seems that the recovery ability of the blood physique is indeed not ordinary.

In this way, Qianye will not have the biggest hidden danger in practicing the Art of Warfare, and he can completely advance bravely. Thirty times at the soldier king level is obviously not his limit!

Qianye checked the light of dawn for the last time, then walked out of the hiding place and headed for Heiliu City.

Black Stream City is still not closed at this moment. It still follows the habit of the middle and upper continents, it will not close the city gate until midnight, and open it on time at six o'clock in the morning.

Heiliu City is not afraid of the sneak attack of the dark race. It is located in the hinterland of this human gathering area, surrounded by more than a dozen villages and towns, and thousands of expeditionary troops are stationed in the city. It is only a few hundred kilometers away from a Legion Fortress of the Expeditionary Army, so the city lord of Heiliu City followed the habits of the empire and did not pay attention to the dark race.

At this moment, Qianye has grown a thick beard, and his hair has become a little yellow. He looks like a young scavenger. After paying fifty copper coins, he entered the city smoothly.

Qianye found the cheapest small hotel to stay like a real scavenger, and then began to observe Qi Yue's movements.

The Qi family is a prominent family in Heiliu City. The main character is Qi Yue's father. He serves as a lieutenant colonel in a division of the expeditionary army, which is equivalent to the position of a regimental commander. At the same time, Qi Yue's uncle is also the financial officer of Heiliu City.

With this dual background, the Qi family is already ranked among the top five families in Heiliu City. Moreover, Qi is a common surname, and the Qi family can be ranked as a second-rate family in the middle and upper continents of the empire. Of course, the Qi family in Heiliu City is just a small branch of the main branch.

Qianye has collected a lot of information about the Qi family.

Qi Yue himself is a second-level warrior. He practiced the Thick Soil Jue handed down in his family, which has an extra bonus in physique. The disadvantage is that he lacks offensive power. Qi Yue's hobby is to collect atomic guns, and he also got several high-quality ones. Of course, with the strength of his second-level fighters, most of them can't exert their real power. Mr. Wang who died at the hands of Qianye was indeed Qi Yue's uncle, and also the director of the Qi family's peripheral business.

After Mr. Wang's death, Qi Yue was indeed a lot more cautious during this time, and he brought at least two guards when he went in and out. However, Qianye observed several times, and found that there was only one third-level guard beside him, and the fourth-level guard had never appeared, and he didn't know where he went.

Qianye observed for three days without waiting for any good opportunity. But Qianye had to be patient. He once had a record of laying down in one place without moving for a week in order to ambush a target. This waiting is nothing at all.

In the middle of the night on the fourth day, Qianye suddenly saw a truck driving out of the Qi mansion and heading towards the city gate. This is an ordinary supply truck, usually used to pull some game food. However, when it passed by, Qianye smelled a different smell, and there was a strong smell of blood in the car.

There are people in the car! Moreover, the breath of blood that Qianye specially memorized showed that Qi Yue was among them.

Qianye lay down calmly, and waited for the truck to drive away before he came out of his hiding place, and followed the truck under the cover of night.

The truck arrived at the city gate, which was already closed, but the people on board negotiated with the gate guards. The steam engine pulling the gate slammed again, and the heavy steel gate slid open a passage to both sides. The truck then left the city and disappeared into the night.

Qianye watched the truck go away. Instead of going through the city gate, he chose an uninhabited section of the city wall, climbed up all the way, then turned over, and chased in the direction the truck left. The field of vision is very far in the wasteland, Qianye is not afraid of being lost at all.

The truck drove about a hundred kilometers before stopping beside an abandoned energy station.

Qi Yue and two other people jumped out of the carriage, waiting for something. One of them seemed to be a guard, and the other was an old man, but he only had first-level strength by visual inspection. In a place like the wasteland, this strength could barely protect himself.

Qianye hid a thousand meters away, quietly observing.

Although it was night, he could still see clearly at this distance, even better than using a quadruple night vision scope. The newly generated dark vision is stronger than expected, and now within 500 meters, Qianye no longer needs a scope at all.

After nearly an hour, only three figures appeared from the night, walking towards them like ghosts.

Qi Yue made a gesture, and the old man beside him walked to the side of the truck, took a box from above, and stood behind Qi Yue. Qi Yue's guards unceremoniously raised their force guns and pointed at the three people walking across.

Qianye suddenly felt a faint fluctuation of blood energy from those three people. They are vampires!

Qianye was taken aback immediately, he didn't expect Qi Yue to quietly go out of the city in the middle of the night to meet the blood clan in private! Qi Yue is the young master of the Qi family, and according to Mr. Wang, there is another layer of hidden identity. If he appears here in person, he may be planning something serious.

Qianye no longer hesitated, and immediately started stealthily sneaking, slowly moving closer to the transaction site, wanting to listen to their conversation.

This time the sneak was unexpectedly smooth, Qianye took advantage of the cover of the night and the terrain to sneak up to 50 meters before stopping.

He was originally an expert in stealth and sneak attacks. Now that he has transformed into a vampire physique, he has the cold-blooded characteristics of a vampire. His body temperature can drop to an extremely low level. The infrared night vision used by the vampire to detect life has no effect on Qianye. On the other hand, he can control the blood energy in his body and use the force to cover the blood energy so that it doesn't leak out. The human blood vision reconnaissance sight is also ineffective against Qianye.

Although the three blood races were pointed at by the force gun, they were not afraid.

A leader of the blood clan said in an old voice: "You don't think you can threaten us with this broken gun, do you? Don't forget, when it comes to the technology of original energy weapons, our blood descendants are even better."

Qi Yue smiled and said: "It's just an extra layer of guarantee. Although this gun is not very good, it is filled with a mithril bullet. It cost me a lot of money to get it. As long as it doesn't As a last resort, I can't avoid using it up."

The three blood races were all shocked, and one even took a step back.

The leader of the blood clan said angrily: "You actually prepared a mithril bullet! Are you insulting me?"

Facing the three powerful blood clans, Qi Yue didn't panic at all, and said calmly: "No! On the contrary, my sincerity for the transaction is extremely full. This mithril bullet is the witness of my sincerity. I hope that this transaction will It can go smoothly, and I hope that future transactions can go smoothly. If my actions offend you, then the benefits brought by the transaction should be very sufficient compensation."

The attitudes of the three blood races eased somewhat.

The leader of the blood clan made a gesture, and a companion behind him took out a suitcase from under the cloak and walked to his side. This suitcase is a typical blood clan style, with black as the base tone, polished matte texture, bronze pattern and corners, the workmanship is extremely exquisite and luxurious, and the materials and handwork alone are extremely rare. The value of things that can be packed in this box can be imagined.

Qi Yue gestured, and the old man also came up, the box he was holding was unpretentious. It's just that he is holding the box with both hands flat, and he takes every step carefully, for fear of overturning.

"There is a special mechanism in this box. Once it is activated, it must be kept absolutely horizontal. After three hours, the mechanism will be automatically released. If it tilts more than five degrees within this time, it will... bang!" Qi Yue made an explosive gesture.

The leader of the blood clan glanced at Qi Yue and said coldly: "You are really careful."

Qi Yue smiled and said: "There is no way. When facing a powerful fourth-level blood family, no matter how careful you should be. As I said just now, my purpose is to complete the transaction smoothly."

The blood clan old man snorted, but there was nothing he could do. As long as you pick up this specially tuned box, you can't avoid the shooting of Mithril bullets. And in order to prevent accidents within three hours, they had to leave as soon as possible. After all, anything could happen in the wilderness.

Qi Yue's arrangement completely killed the idea of blood robbery.

Although this transaction is only the first in a series of transactions, in the eyes of most blood races, human beings are still slaves and food thousands of years ago. Whether to abide by the agreement often depends on the mood at the time.

This old man of the blood clan was indeed prepared to kill people and rob goods if things went wrong before he came. As for the transaction, just find another person. The number of human beings is huge, there is more than one Qi family in Heiliu City, and there is more than one young master Qi Yue in the Qi family.

The old man of the blood clan took the suitcase, inspected it carefully, and handed it to another companion behind him. Then he snorted heavily and turned to leave.

It wasn't until the figures of the three blood races disappeared that Qi Yue let out a long breath, as if he had collapsed, and suddenly broke out in a profuse sweat.

Facing a fourth-level blood race, the pressure was unusually high. And past experience has shown that if you want to make a deal with the dark race, you really have to be prepared to put your head on your belt. Every gold coin traded has a huge risk that matches its value.

But when he took the suitcase in his hand, Qi Yue's eyes also showed eager light. He carefully opened the box and took a look, then closed the lid contentedly, and said, "Let's go, hurry back before dawn."

The three got into the truck and returned the same way.

In the night, when the three blood races were running like ghosts, the old man at the head suddenly stopped! The vampire holding the suitcase behind him couldn't hold back his feet for a while, and almost hit his back. This surprise was no small matter, and both of them were terrified.

"Be careful! There are enemies, guard the box!" The old man of the blood clan ordered urgently and quickly.

At this moment, a round object was suddenly thrown from the darkness.
