Let the Night race be known to the world!
The thought popped up in Kieran's heart uncontrollably.
The reason why the Night race was hard to deal with wasn't because of their strength but because they had an unimaginable way of concealing themselves.
If such a method of concealment was made known to the public …
In the era of flintlock pistols, the threat of the Night race would plummet.
After some thought, Kieran spoke to the bounty hunters and mercenaries who were begging for mercy.
"The Night race is a monster that can transform into another person's appearance and feed on humans!
They are afraid of pain because pain prevents them from maintaining their human form. Their bodies are much stronger than a common man and their skin can even withstand common swords and knives!
Now, they are lurking around you and will strike at you from time to time. Think about it, were there any missions that you were 90% sure you would succeed but failed in the end? Did some of you go missing in the middle of a mission? Did some of your comrades become unfamiliar to you? "
Kieran didn't explicitly state things like 'working together to fight against the Night race'.
Kieran knew it was unrealistic for a bunch of bounty hunters and mercenaries known as vultures and hyenas to work together as one, since they were used to dealing with dead bodies.
These people were selfish and only cared about themselves.
If Kieran wanted to borrow their strength, he would have to start from their point of view.
Kieran glanced over the faces of the people before him who changed their expressions after his words. He didn't say anything else and turned around to Lander.
Going too far was as bad as not going far enough.
Kieran understood it a long time ago.
"I think we need to talk!"
Kieran said.
"Of course!"
Lander nodded.
The wagon started to move again.
The atmosphere inside the carriage wasn't that great though.
Before Kieran could apologize, Lander had exposed Kieran's lies.
"You don't even know where Harold is!"
Lander purposely lowered his voice and was filled with anger.
Kieran felt a little awkward after his lies were exposed.
He touched the tip of his nose and nodded without saying anything.
Right away, Lander's breath hastened even more.
Guessing and verifying were two different concepts.
There was still a glimmer of hope in his guess.
And if it was verified …
It was time to face it.
"Damn it!"
Rat cursed.
Deep worry and anxiety appeared on the middle-aged man's face.
Lander understood what kind of danger his son was going through after the encounter at the family mansion and what he had just gone through.
More importantly, when faced with his son in danger, he, as a father, was powerless to do anything!
Lander would feel a little better if he could provide even the slightest bit of help to his son.
However, Lander didn't even know where his son was.
Lander didn't even dare to imagine what kind of situation his son was in.
Because …
Lander immediately connected the dots to the result.
Harold's body.
There wasn't even a corpse.
The fear of losing his only bloodline made Lander tremble from head to toe.
"Don't worry, things are not as bad as you think!"
"You should trust Herbert!"
"At least, you should believe that we still have a chance!"
Kieran explained when he saw Lander's reaction.
The last word 'opportunity' successfully attracted the middle-aged man's attention.
"Opportunity?"
Lat repeated.
"Yes."
Kieran nodded and told his plan to Lander.
After hearing Kieran's plan, Lander frowned and thought for a while before saying, "If we want to spread the news, relying on the bounty hunters and mercenaries isn't practical, we need a wider channel. I will contact all the newspapers in Herl City and even the whole of Langton!"
"Two days!
I guarantee within two days, news about you will spread throughout the whole of Langton! "
His words were loud and clear.
It wasn't a joke.
"Thank you!"
Kieran nodded in thanks.
"Don't thank me!
I am doing this for Harold!
You mentioned that my bodyguard, Pelby, has a problem? "
Lander then looked at Kieran again and asked directly.
"Ask and you will know."
Kieran smiled.
The wagon stopped for a while and after Pelby boarded the wagon, it started moving again.
Pak!
Amid the clear cracking of the whip, Pelby looked at Kieran with reverence.
In fact, after the incident just now, all of Lander's bodyguards were in the same state.
Though, Pelby was the most serious one.
Pelby had a guilty conscience in his heart.
Without any questions, when Kieran laid his eyes on Pelby, the tall and buff bodyguard started to tremble.
The rage on Lander's face was gone in a flash.
As an employer that paid a generous commission, he thought he could trust his bodyguards.
However, reality slapped him hard in the face.
"I didn't mean to …"
Pelby wanted to explain himself.
However, neither Kieran nor Lander wanted to hear his explanation.
Lander turned his face around, as if he was going to hand Pelby over to Kieran.
Kieran, on the other hand, twisted the [Mesly Ring] on his left middle finger.
The crystal ring shone brightly.
Just when the bodyguard wanted to explain himself, he was stunned for a moment before his expression turned respectful. It was the respect of a loyal dog to its master.
[Charm]!
[Dominate]!
With his S rank Spirit, Kieran easily obtained the 'Dominate' over the bodyguard before him.
"I want to know everything!"
Kieran said.
"Yes, master!
Some of my weaknesses fell into the hands of that vampire, Bokor. He forced me to serve him, otherwise he would destroy my peaceful life. I was originally a fugitive, I changed my face and got the identity of Pelby. I don't know how Bokor got hold of my information but that bastard is very resourceful. He didn't just have a lot of men under him, he seemed to be related to the higher ranks of Herl City as well … "
Pelby told Kieran everything he knew.
Lander, on the other hand, looked at Kieran with an anxious and doubtful gaze.
The middle-aged man who witnessed the whole incident felt uncomfortable like he was sitting on pins and needles. If he didn't know running away would be useless, he would have jumped off the wagon.
Even if it was his wagon.
What happened?!
What the hell?!
Not only could a gaze determine one's life and death, but it could also control one's thoughts?
Lander couldn't help but think of some legendary creatures when he looked at Kieran.
Kieran raised a brow when he felt Lander's gaze. He hated being looked at like that but he knew what was more important.
"Where is that Bokor?"
Kieran asked after he discarded the unhappiness in his heart.
"Bokor's grocery store beside the post office!"
Pelby answered right away.
…
The night was getting darker.
The whole of Herl City had fallen into a deep slumber.
Suddenly …
KABOOM!
A huge explosion rocked the whole city.
The grocery store beside the post office turned into a fireball and flew up to the sky.
The signboard was blasted into pieces and flew everywhere.
The biggest piece flew more than 20 meters away and landed in front of a pair of boots.
Kieran looked down at the broken signboard and then looked up at Bokor's grocery store which was engulfed in flames. His face turned extremely ugly.
