Roland was of a mind to cancel the quest.
After all, his main responsibility was to travel with the magic apprentices. He didn't mind the difficulties, but he wouldn't mind if their lives were in great danger.
But after thinking for a moment, he didn't cancel the quest.
Even if he didn't do it, it wouldn't be a problem to leave the quest in the menu.
Seeing that Lauren was still silent, Yelia continued, "Those two vampires weren't strong. I could've fought them to a draw on my own. Together with you, it would've been a piece of cake for us to kill them."
Roland was rather tempted. After all, it was a blue quest, and the EXP reward should be considerable.
He thought for a moment and said, "I have to be responsible for the safety of the apprentices. Now that I've been targeted by vampires, it would've been troublesome if I pissed off one or two more of them. "
Roland was certain that the vampires that Yelia ran into weren't the ones that he ran into.
It was because he could tell that Yelia wasn't very strong. They were so close to each other that they could sense each other's mental waves.
Although Yelia's magic power was about two-thirds of Roland's, the problem was that Yelia's mental waves weren't very stable.
The more stable a spellcaster's mental waves were, the more likely they would be to cast spells and the more powerful they would be.
Yelia's mental waves were steady and long. Unfortunately, they would suddenly rise or fall every minute or two.
Although they were only a few tenths of a second, Roland still sensed it.
It suggested that Yelia had hidden problems with his mental power.
It wasn't obvious, but it would affect the speed and power of his casting in a battle.
It meant that Yelia's real strength should've been reduced. Although he was an Elite, the strength he could carry out was probably around level four.
Even so, he was still able to suppress two vampires, which meant that the Vampire Foragers that he ran into were definitely not the ones that Roland ran into.
Those two vampires, both male and female, were close to the Master level.
If the vampire hadn't been so stubborn as to atomize and crawl into the rock tent, he wouldn't have been easy to deal with if he hadn't been hit by Roland's lightning while he was unprepared, which heavily wounded his soul.
"Wouldn't that be even better?" Hearing that, Yelia said with a smile, "If the two vampires you encountered dare to come, we'll kill them together and get it over with."
Roland thought for a moment and said, "Let me think about it tonight."
Yelia nodded with a smile. He knew that it couldn't be rushed.
The two of them chatted for a while. Then, Roland went to the fifth floor and entered the big room that was prepared for him.
Andonara was already waiting inside.
When she saw Roland, she smiled and said, "I want pajamas."
Andonara's personal belongings were all in Roland's Backpack.
Vivian and the others were magic casters and apprentices, so they needed to travel and study. Thus, Vivian's belongings were all in the carriage, and she would look after them and move them around.
But Andonara didn't need to travel. She was very strong, and Roland could vaguely sense that Andonara was slowly getting stronger even though she didn't exercise much.
The Hero bloodline was so powerful?
No wonder the king didn't want to give her up.
Taking the pajamas out of the Backpack, Andonara accepted them and began to change.
Roland saw something he shouldn't have seen. He immediately closed his eyes and said helplessly, "Be careful. I'm a man after all. If you don't follow the rules, I might attack you."
"That's fine." Andonara, who had put on the pajamas, said with a smile, "This body is yours anyway. Even the king has acknowledged it. You can do whatever you want."
In the latter half of the sentence, Andonara's voice became lazy and seductive.
Roland clicked his tongue and ignored her.
Andonara chuckled and crawled into bed. Then, she lay down and went to sleep.
Roland opened his eyes and sat down at his desk, considering Yelia's proposal.
Now that the vampires were in trouble, running away was not a solution. Yelia was right. If they could be killed, all the trouble would be resolved.
But the problem was how to ensure the apprentices' safety.
Vampires were not simple-minded barbarians. They were cunning, proud, and patient. They were also very vengeful.
Roland couldn't guarantee that the vampires wouldn't send their subordinates or spawns after the magic apprentices when he dealt with them.
What should he do? Roland subconsciously crossed his arms and frowned.
"You seem to have something on your mind." Andonara's voice came from the bed. "Can you tell me?"
Roland thought for a moment and told Andonara his concerns.
Andonara smiled. "You're overthinking it. It's mainly because you're too soft-hearted. Actually, if the vampires really want to retaliate against the magic apprentices, you can use them as bait."
Her words immediately untangled the knot in Roland's head.
After all, Roland was a man of peace. It would be a big deal if someone died, especially someone close to him.
So, Roland was always restrained when he had a target to protect.
It was a cultural shackle that couldn't be broken so easily.
Andonara's words, however, gave him an idea.
The next day, he went to Yelia and said, "Chairman Yelia, I'm willing to work with you to deal with the vampires."
Yelia patted Roland's shoulder delightedly. "Okay, you won't regret your decision. The vampires have a lot of wealth. We'll split it evenly after we kill them. "
Roland didn't say anything. He wasn't interested in wealth at this moment, only experience.
After the breakfast that the Magic Tower prepared for them, the magic apprentices of the two parties mingled and exchanged their experiences in magic.
Roland took Andonara aside and told her a lot of things. Then, he left the city with Yelia in a carriage.
The roads outside the cities in this world were all in bad conditions. The carriage was shaking. Yelia slightly swayed his body and said, "The Magic Tower is supported by the city, and naturally, it's my responsibility to eliminate danger for the people of the city. I've been chairman for more than ten years, and I've killed a lot of magic creatures, beasts, evil spirits, and undying that threatened the safety of the city. But this is my first time dealing with vampires. "
"Are you nervous?" asked Roland.
"No, I just feel that they don't live up to their reputation," Yelia explained. Yelia explained, "According to the books, vampires are very strong, but the two vampires I dealt with earlier were rather weak."
"Maybe it's because you're too strong," said Roland with a casual smile.
Roland had a high EQ. He knew that Yelia wasn't strong enough, and that he probably encountered two noob vampires, but he didn't have to say that out loud.
It wasn't interesting.
Sometimes, the truth was very hurtful.
"Hahahaha." Yelia was quite delighted. He found Roland interesting and not arrogant. He immediately liked him and said, "In fact, it's not because I'm too strong, but because I got something good. A few days ago, a group of mercenaries fled to our city. They sold me a piece of magical equipment at a high price, saying that it could suppress dark creatures to a certain extent. Vampires are also dark creatures. I tested it and it worked. "
"What was it?" Roland was rather curious.
"This is it." Yelia took out a black brick from his robe. "The mercenaries said that it was some kind of Black Bone! It's a weird name. "
