The middle-aged man's warning was completely for the sake of the gold coin.
But when he closed the door again, he didn't know what he saw. When he leaned against the door, his face was as pale as a vampire's, and his whole body was listless. He kept muttering to himself, "They're here …"
"They're here."
Burned Cinder glanced at William and moved to the window. He opened a gap and looked outside. After a while, he turned his head and shook his head, indicating that he did not see anything. In other words, the six of them did not sense any danger.
William raised his eyebrows. He walked upstairs and said, "Just sleep in peace. We're hunters, but they're not."
They nodded.
They went upstairs to sleep.
This neutral territory was filled with strangeness.
They were only staying here for a night. They even had the intention to go to the East Sea Metropolis. If they were really frightened by the vampires in the town, they might as well go home.
Time passed.
After a night.
William had a good night's sleep, and nothing unexpected happened.
However, when everyone went out early in the morning, the middle-aged owner of the hotel died in the lobby. His blood was not sucked dry, but his whole body was twisted into a twisted dough twist by a huge force. He had a gold coin in his mouth, and his eyes were filled with fear.
William frowned when he saw this. "Inform the guards in the town that we're leaving."
"Okay." Burned Cinder picked up the gold coin in the mouth of the dead man and went to inform the guards.
A neutral Lord could build a town in his territory. The mayor was usually his subordinate. Although the soldiers in the town were commanded by the mayor, the real military power belonged to the Lord.
It was still raining heavily outside.
The sky was still gloomy and cold.
After the mayor found out about the death of the hotel boss, he did not investigate William and the others. He did not investigate the cause of the hotel boss' death either. He even sent the guards to escort them out of the town. It was as if he was sending off the King of Hell.
They rode on their horses and walked towards the East Sea Metropolis in the wind and rain.
Another three days passed.
They passed by many towns, and the situation in these towns was the same. In this rainy weather, every household's door was closed, and it was difficult to find any clues.
William was getting impatient. He wanted to get straight to the point and enter the East Sea Metropolis to find out what was going on.
After all, Eastsea City wasn't like the small towns outside. There were millions of people inside, and even if the vampires were all officials, they wouldn't capture people and suck their blood without restraint. Usually, the smaller the place, the easier it was for trouble to occur.
For example, the Emerald Grand Duchy.
The royal family and nobles were all vampires.
However, the citizens of the Duchy were still living well. Just some rumors about vampires didn't have much of an impact.
Even the Freedom Alliance players who had entered the Emerald Grand Duchy a year earlier did not find any clues about Vampires in the Emerald Grand Duchy.
Even if there were any clues to the mission, they would often be cut off at a certain point.
Until more and more players joined the Vampire Quest.
To participate in that secret mission.
But when all the players' clues began to point to the royal family's dignitaries …
Only then did the players gradually shift their target to the high and mighty kings, royals, and nobles.
But no matter how incredulous the players were.
That was the truth!
…
As they neared the East Sea Metropolis.
Diablo walked along the way and couldn't help but say in a deep voice, "Your Highness, along the way, besides a few soldiers and citizens, we didn't see any city officials. Are they intentionally avoiding us?"
"That's right. Everyone says that there are vampires here, but I didn't see any of the town mayors. I didn't see any of them requesting us to deal with the vampires," Wales said in confusion.
Burned Cinder smiled and said, "Maybe the town mayors are afraid of revenge."
"It's said that Lord Bernard of the East Sea Metropolis is very powerful. He has hundreds of thousands of soldiers under him. It doesn't make sense that he can't deal with a few vampires. If the vampires really want to take revenge on the town mayors, will the vampires be able to withstand Bernard's wrath? "
"Over the past few days, we can confirm that there are definitely vampires in this land. They don't attack many times, and there's no pattern to their attacks. Their targets are usually young men and women, and most of them are commoners. They rarely target slaves!
"But everyone should have heard that the East Sea Metropolis officials aren't the vampires' targets.
"We can assume that the East Sea Metropolis officials are powerful professionals.
"But logically speaking, the blood of professionals should taste better, right?
"Then is it possible that Lord Bernard of the East Sea Metropolis is a vampire? Or perhaps he had some sort of compromise with the vampires?"
When everyone heard Alec's words, they fell into deep thought.
William didn't say anything along the way. He only said that there were definitely vampires in the East Sea Metropolis, and the rest of them could make their own guesses.
But let's not talk about it.
The three Legendary and two Epic experts were not stupid. After a series of discussions, they had already linked the vampires and Lord Bernard of the East Sea Metropolis together.
But everything had to be based on evidence!
Words were not proof.
But sometimes, even if they had evidence, it was useless.
For example, in William's previous life, after the players were defeated by the Darkness Invasion, almost all of them became members of the Emerald Grand Duchy.
The vampires naturally attacked them. But the vampires discovered that drinking the blood of the chosen ones was like eating sh * t. The blood was poisonous, and there was sh * t in the blood.
The chosen ones were not fit to be their food. After that, they were no longer interested in attacking the players.
But the chosen ones were very powerful and could be resurrected. This made the King and nobles (vampires) treat the players very well. They gave the players various missions to kill the vampires.
But the players were curious!
They were relentless and kept collecting clues about vampires. Whether it was vampires from enemy countries or vampires from their own country, they didn't want to let go of any of them. Even if there were nobles (vampires) who tried to divert their attention to vampires from enemy countries, the players still refused to do so.
As time passed, the players found many clues. There was a lot of evidence that showed that the nobles and royal families in their camp were vampires!
However, this feeling was like the saying, "You can't see the true face of a mountain because you're in the mountain." The players' faction was the Emerald Grand Duchy, but you told me that the leaders of our faction were all vampires. Who would believe that?
In the early stages of Version 3.0, the players thought that the so-called evidence was definitely used by the enemy vampires to divert their attention.
After all, how many people would suspect that the leader of their camp was a vampire?
Even if there were!
There were very few vampires, and they were the targets of attacks on the forum.
But it was a pity that it was the truth.
Whether it was Version 1.0, 2.0, or 3.0, every main storyline was filled with conspiracies and darkness, which made the players suffer.
As the truth was revealed one by one, aside from disbelief, the players could only widen their eyes in a daze …
But what William had to do now was …
He had to stir up the muddy waters.
Weren't the vampires awesome? Weren't they able to disguise as nobles and officials?
He did not need evidence.
I only need to see you, kill you, and let you return to your original vampire form. At that time, you guys who don't dare to reveal your true form can only suffer in silence, unable to say anything.
After all, even during a battle, as long as the vampires did not want to revert to their original form, they would not do so unless they were killed!
In William's previous life, how many players had dared to attack the Boss of their own camp?
The players did not dare to do it, and they were unable to do it.
William had the courage and strength to do it.
When the six of them passed by some towns, the local vampires knew that they were not a match for them, so they allowed the six of them to enter the East Sea Metropolis.
Would William be afraid?
Of course, he would be afraid. He would be fearful.
But he would be afraid. That was human nature.
Fear was the driving force behind his desire to become stronger.
Two days later.
He arrived at the East Sea Metropolis.
He was here to take revenge for his subordinates. He did not want to create trouble for Lord Bernard of the East Sea Metropolis.
Bernard, the Lord of East Sea City, had actually gone to obstruct his mission.
William did not mind changing the difficulty of the A + level mission to S level!
They were all neutral Lords.
None of them had any backing.
I have so many players under me. Do you really think I can't outlast you guys?
