In the ancient town of Shui, Rocks and Enelu were sitting in a bar drinking and killing time.
"Boss Rocks, are we just going to drink here? This is so boring."
Enelu asked weakly, lying on the wine table.
Rocks drank the wine in the glass in his hand in one gulp, supported his bar with one hand, and looked at several people who were drinking and chatting in the tavern.
"Enelu, you have to know that the tavern is the easiest place to gather intelligence. Besides, didn't you ask that team of soldiers to go find the noble lords on this island?"
Playing with the wine glass in his hand, Rocks watched a little boy secretly take a bag of coins from the arms of a drunkard.
"Hey! Damn kid!"
Just when the boy was about to succeed, the drunkard suddenly woke up and grabbed the boy's hand.
"I finally caught you this time! Damn brat, do you know that you have completely pissed me off!"
The drunk man ignored the boy's struggle, grabbed his neck tightly and lifted him up.
"I'm going to kill you today for daring to steal your uncle Roman's money!"
As he said that, the man slammed the boy to the ground.
"Bang"
With a loud bang, the young man was smashed hard on the floor of the tavern. The heavy blow caused him to spit out a large mouthful of blood.
"Ahem, ahem, ahem, asshole!"
The boy coughed a few times, staring at Roman with a grim look on his face, his hands clenched into fists.
When Roman saw the boy's expression, he became even angrier and kicked the boy on the ground hard.
One foot, two feet, three feet...
Only after the boy's mouth was bleeding from his kick and he lay limp on the ground did Roman feel relieved and let him go.
As for Roman's actions, the entire tavern seemed to be accustomed to it and no one came over to dissuade him.
The guests in the tavern were still chatting and laughing, and drinking.
It perfectly illustrates what it means to be cold and ruthless.
The young man lying on the ground had no eyes, his body was limp, and tears from his eyes kept flowing, mixing with the blood on the ground.
Rocks stood up, walked slowly to the boy's side and squatted down.
In the tavern, after seeing Rocks walk up to the young man and squat down, Roman immediately stood up and walked towards Rocks in a crooked manner.
"Get out of my way, kid. No one is allowed to help this kid today, or I'll beat you up too."
Rocks ignored Roman's threatening warning.
"Boy, why don't you resist? You clearly have the strength to easily defeat that drunkard."
The boy turned his head to look at Rocks, raised his arm with difficulty, wiped the tears from his eyes, and slowly sat up.
"Damn it, kid! Didn't you hear what I said?!"
Roman's angry roar echoed throughout the tavern, and he clenched his fists and hit Rocks hard.
"Buzz!"
Just when Roman was about to hit Rocks, an extremely heavy gravity suddenly erupted and pressed Roman to the ground.
Roman was knocked to the ground by the heavy gravity and unable to move. He looked at Rocks with horror.
He didn't know why he was pinned to the ground, but Roman knew that it must have been done by the man opposite him.
The boy sat up with difficulty, glanced at Roman, who was pinned to the ground and unable to move, with a look of fear on his face, and then looked at Rocks.
"If you don't want to get into trouble, you'd better leave here as soon as possible."
"That guy, after all, is the nephew of this town's lord, Count Reinhardt."
After saying that, the young man stood up with difficulty and staggered out of the tavern.
Rocks watched the boy stagger away, then turned to look at Roman on the ground.
When Roman noticed that Rocks was looking at him, the fear on his face suddenly turned into anger.
"Damn it! You little brat, now that you know I'm Count Reinhardt's nephew, why don't you let me go! Otherwise, I will definitely let Uncle Reinhardt execute you!"
Rocks squatted down and looked at the angry Roman, and slightly increased the gravity.
"Buzz"
"ah!!!"
Screams echoed throughout the tavern.
The drinkers who were originally drinking and chatting also fled out of the pub because of this sudden change.
They don't want to suffer any misfortune.
Rocks pulled over a chair and sat down slowly, looking at Roman who was howling in pain on the ground.
"I have something to ask you. If you can satisfy me, I will let you go. How about that?"
Roman, who was in great pain, nodded frantically when he heard Rocks' words.
But the heavy gravity made him feel like his bones were being crushed a little with every nod.
Rocks nodded in satisfaction and released the gravity that was pressing on him.
The moment gravity disappeared, Roman felt that he had never felt so relaxed.
He got up, took deep breaths, and wiped the tears from his eyes.
"No, I don't know if you have any questions, sir. Please tell me everything I know."
Roman looked at Rocks with trembling eyes and fear. He didn't want to feel that heavy feeling like a mountain pressing down on him again.
"I heard that there is a vampire legend on your island. Can you tell me about it in detail?"
"!!!"
Hearing Rocks' question, Roman's pupils shrank noticeably.
However, after seeing Rocks' calm, emotionless eyes, Roman was suddenly filled with fear.
"Yes, yes, there is indeed a legend about vampires in our Shuigu Town."
About eight hundred years ago, Shuigu Town suffered a great disaster.
At that time, the Marquis of Auguste was still ruling the island.
At that time, Shuigu Town was extremely prosperous because it was led by Marquis Auguste.
Relying on his immense strength, Marquis Auguste fought off countless pirates, guarded this island and this town, and was deeply loved by the residents of this town.
However, after repelling a pirate attack, Marquis Auguste suddenly underwent some drastic changes.
At that time, the Marquis Auguste was already over seventy years old, a gray-haired, very old man.
After repelling the attacking pirates, that night the entire Shuigu Town was shrouded in scarlet moonlight.
And that very night, several young and beautiful girls in the town were attacked by unknown creatures.
All the blood in their bodies was sucked away, and they died in a very miserable way.
This incident caused the whole town to fall into panic.
The residents of the town jointly requested to meet with Marquis Auguste, asking him to help them find out the truth and kill the monster.
And a strange and magical scene appeared.
The originally old Marquis Auguste unexpectedly regained his youthful appearance on that day and appeared in front of all the residents at that time.
Seeing Auguste restored as a young queen, all the residents were filled with excitement, fear, and confusion.
The excitement was because their patron saint had regained his youth and could protect them.
What is terrifying is that the old Marquis Auguste has inexplicably become younger.
What is puzzling is why Marquis Auguste suddenly became younger.
However, after Marquis Auguste said he would help the residents find out the truth and solve the monster, the residents no longer paid attention to why he became younger.
They only know that their patron saint still cares for them.
Sure enough, after the gathering that day, there have been no more monster attacks in Shuigu Town.
The residents also believed that Marquis Auguste had killed the monster.
Just like this, several decades passed quietly. When Marquis Auguste was old again, the horrific scene happened again.
Then, this kind of thing would happen again every few decades.
Until today, that horrible day is about to come again.
Just after Roman finished telling this legend, the door of the tavern was opened.
A middle-aged man in fancy clothes walked into the pub.
