Here, the Lord said this is a good thing

Some monster masters of the expedition team would occasionally "disappear" in the outer city area of ​​Eternal Night City for half a day.

This situation did not attract anyone's attention at the beginning, and on the surface it did not seem to have any impact on the Eternal Night City, which was becoming increasingly difficult to venture into.

But in fact, once these greedy and lustful monsters are tempted by the female ghosts, they will immediately become the most determined defenders of the cause of conquering the City of Eternal Night.

What Ye He wants to do is to take advantage of the special characteristics of this group of people and make them the "heart booster" in the expeditionary team.

When other more rational and upright team members began to back off because of the increasing difficulty in the outer city area.

These people will take the initiative to jump out and boost the morale of the expedition team.

Ye He, who is controlling both inside and outside the city, wants these people to continue to go to Eternal Night City so that this interesting game can continue.

Unless Yehe gets tired of them before they do, Yehe will not let them go.

The vast majority of people have become completely addicted to the game set up for them by Ye He, unable to extricate themselves. Only a very small number of people can see through the conspiracy based on their own experiences.

Or knowing that there was something wrong with all of this from the beginning.

For example, Don Quixote, Geralt, and Simon Belmont.

As the apparent leader of all the expeditionary forces, Don Quixote had already sensed that the situation was gradually getting out of control.

The energy of the expedition team is gradually being consumed by the outer city area, but there are always various events that can stimulate the "vitality" of these people, allowing them to start moving towards this quagmire again.

One morning, Don Quixote met Geralt, who was returning in the morning light, at the door of the Continental Hotel.

Geralt is one of the few strong men who can rely on his own strength to adventure in the City of Evernight as a team. Like Don Quixote, he discovered the problematic person on the train to the City of Evernight.

With just a glance from Quixote, Geralt bypassed the Continental Hotel and the outer taverns and came to meet Quixote again behind a hill in the wilderness.

"are you sure?"

"Yes, it's the female ghosts who are causing trouble. They disguised themselves as victims in the City of Eternal Night and seduced those lustful guys to have secret trysts, using this as a reward to attract those guys to continue to go to the City of Eternal Night."

Geralt's answer left Quixote dumbfounded. At first he thought that some monster had cast a curse on these members of the expedition team, which made them actively head towards the City of Eternal Night.

"Isn't it... a curse or something?"

"No. Although the female ghosts have curse-like abilities, they didn't use them. They simply used their skills and...special experience to attract those idiots."

When explaining this, Geralt couldn't help but reveal a hint of "aftertaste" on his face.

To be honest, that feeling is indeed very strange, different from being a woman, a female monster user, or even a witch.

Geralt, who had personally experienced the female ghost last night, felt that he could understand those lustful guys.

"Have you tried? My goodness...that's a monster! Aren't they afraid of being killed by the monster?"

As soon as Don Quixote saw Geralt's expression, he knew that this witcher's investigation was thorough and detailed.

But he has not gotten rid of his own mental obsession with cleanliness, so he still cannot understand how Geralt and others can accept "Ghost".

“Those female ghosts are very smart. They will pretend to cry and complain about their “tragic experiences” to arouse the sympathy of men.

Then, by leading the way to find treasure or protecting the man, the man will be gradually let down his guard...

Finally, they use a little bit of seduction techniques to make the men taste the sweetness directly without actually hurting these men directly.

These men will start to flock to her because of this.”

Geralt explained the "trick" of the female ghosts in detail to Don Quixote, and then asked Don Quixote insincerely:

"It's hard for a man to give up such an erotic encounter under such circumstances. Can you refuse a lady's unrequited kindness to you?"

“They’re monsters… not ladies… but I think I see what you mean.

This should be part of Ye He's plan, right? It sounds... a bit unsolvable..."

What made Quixote helpless was not the existence of this group of female ghosts, because they did not cause any substantial harm to any member of the expedition team.

Sometimes when a member of a crusade team is cornered by other monster residents and has no way out, these female ghosts will even try to rescue them!
Then they'll take advantage of the situation and something will happen...it doesn't matter anymore.

In short, Quixote has learned the whole picture through Geralt, but he is embarrassed to find that he has no means to counter those female ghosts.

Ye He's move was too cruel, allowing Quixote to quietly divide the unity of the expedition team. His "rescue plan" of trying to wear out their patience so that they could leave the City of Eternal Night safely was severely frustrated.

Geralt also fell silent. In the end, he did not kill the charming female ghost.

First of all, there is no point in doing so. The female ghost he killed tonight will be reborn and will put him on the blacklist, so that he will never experience this again.

Secondly...they really didn't hurt Geralt, and they let Geralt...

"I'll go back and think of other ways. Sigh... that Belmont kid, do you know where he is? Maybe he can help us in other ways?"

With nothing else to do, Quixote can only turn to Simon, who may know more about the City of Eternal Night, but he has not seen Simon recently.

"I don't know, but don't forget his purpose... I even suspect that he is standing with Ye He."

Geralt thinks about things in a simpler way, but he always gets to the heart of the matter.

The current situation is definitely a "good thing" for Simon Belmont, so Geralt feels that Simon will not help them save others.

Simon, whose name was mentioned by the two men, was currently on the top floor of the Continental Hotel, sitting in the reception room with Ye He.

Although Simon did not stand with Ye He, it was obvious that Geralt was right and Simon really had no intention of hindering Ye He.

Today he took the initiative to show up and find Ye He because of the incident with the female ghost.

Through this incident, Simon discovered that Ye He actually already had a certain say and influence in Eternal Night City. He wanted to achieve his goal once and for all through Ye He.

"You mean... you want me to go to the Eternal Night Library to find your ancestor's fiancée?"

Ye He had just finished listening to Simon's request, and at this moment he was simply repeating Simon's words. "Yes," Simon nodded to Ye He repeatedly, and then a trace of deep fatigue appeared on his young and handsome face, and he sighed deeply:

"Alas... my ancestor's obsession was caused by this woman. If I find her, I may be able to end this obsession and save my family from the fate curse of the Belmont family name."

Hundreds of years have passed since the first Leon Belmont conquered the City of Evernight because of an accident with his fiancée.

By the time of Simon's generation, they had long been unable to empathize with their ancestor's grief over the death of his fiancée, and it was even more difficult for them to turn this humiliation into motivation to attack the City of Eternal Night.

"If it weren't for this curse, everyone in our family should be able to have their own life, and they wouldn't have to devote everything to a career that has no future or results...

God knows whether the woman was willing or not? God knows whether all this was just the wishful thinking of our ancestors?
I want to know the answer, and I also want a result, Lord Yehe, can you help me? "

In front of Ye He, Simon, with fatigue on his face, asked Ye He for help with great sincerity.

But Ye He remained silent without comment. He didn't care about Simon's life or death, or the life or death of their family. It was none of Ye He's business.

On the contrary, lifting Leon Belmont's curse of fate at this time might also dampen the desire of the expedition team members to explore the City of Eternal Night, which was definitely unacceptable to Ye He.

I have said it all. What Ye He wants to see is a river of blood. He wants to watch these greedy, lustful, and ignorant guys get their brains beaten out in the game that he has set for them!

So after comprehensive consideration, Ye He decided to reject Simon's request for help and not help him.

"You don't think... that I'm the only one left in Belmont in my generation?
In fact, my aunt and my sister were on their way here.

Their execution ability is much stronger than mine, and your plan will definitely be disrupted by them."

In fact, the last sentence is the real reason why Simon came to Ye He today.

He knew very well that Ye He would not arbitrarily interrupt the progress of the expedition team and interfere with his money-making plan.

But Ye He's arrangement of the punitive team was so "appropriate" that it would definitely arouse the disgust of his aunt and sister who were about to arrive.

In order to prevent Ye He from killing them in anger, Simon had to come to Ye He in advance to say hello and use a request that Ye He was even less likely to accept to dilute Ye He's murderous intent.

"I won't help you. I am neutral." After a brief silence, Ye He finally spoke.

"As for your relatives...if they don't take the initiative to provoke me, I won't care about their actions or their life or death.

The Eternal Night City is far from being as simple as your ancestors knew, and the Immortal King is not someone you can dream of challenging."

Ye He used this sentence to test Simon's background. In fact, long after Ye He knew that Fafner was the Immortal King, he had been wondering about one thing:

Who gave Belmont the courage?

If the Belmont family just wanted to break through the library in the central city to rescue the fiancée of their ancestor who had died hundreds of years ago, then Ye He could still understand it.

But if their goal is to destroy the entire Evernight City...including killing Fafner!

Then Yehe can only say that they are courageous.

"..."

Simon also heard from Ye He's implicit meaning that he looked down on their family for overestimating their own capabilities.

He silently took out a small dagger that he had been wearing from his waist, and then took out a necklace from his arms.

While showing these two things to Ye He, Simon explained to Ye He:
“This is the Dragon Slaying Dagger and the Anti-Demon Necklace. They are two of the eight treasures our ancestors left for us to deal with the Eight Kings of Eternal Night.

[Dragon Slaying Dagger] has an absolute "destroying" effect on dragon creatures or creatures with dragon blood. Because of it, the Laurent Empire has always allowed our family to exist.

[Anti-Magic Necklace] can protect the wearer from special damage of specific attributes, including sonic attacks such as "Aria of Death".

Seeing them... you should understand what I mean, right?"

Simon's explanation really made Ye He understand many things at once.

Leon Belmont did not charge blindly towards an unchallengeable opponent. In that glorious era, he had actually collected these treasures to target the "Eight Kings of Eternal Night".

Although the gap in strength still exists, he is not without the ability to fight and has no way to deal with the "Eight Kings of Eternal Night".

These treasures made up for too much. Ye He could even imagine that when the eight treasures of the Belmont family were held by one person at the same time...

Even if this person does not need to possess extremely powerful top-level strength, he still has a certain chance of "breaking through" the entire Eternal Night City!
"Interesting... Are you planning to trade them with me?"

Ye He also became personally interested in the [Dragon Slaying Dagger]. If this thing was really that useful, perhaps it could provide him with some bargaining chips for a successful collaboration with Fafner?

"I can only give you one of these as payment for helping me investigate the library."

Simon pursed his lips. Bargaining with Ye He was not an easy task. He was now facing the risk that Ye He might kill people and steal treasures at any time.

"Okay! Then let's get the Dragon Slaying Dagger. I will take action tonight. You can stay in the hotel and wait for my news!"

But what Simon didn't expect was that Ye He actually agreed to his deal without even going to the bargaining stage.

"Don't be surprised, boy. These treasures of your family should have your family's bloodline to use, right?"

Ye He smiled and told Simon the information that he had just deliberately concealed, which made Simon, who was about to smile, suddenly feel creepy.

"Don't be afraid. I always keep my word and I don't mind such a small problem."

After saying that, Ye He stretched out his hand in front of Simon, motioning Simon to hand over the Dragon Slaying Dagger to him and continue the transaction.

"grateful……"

What else could Simon do? He could only put the dragon-slaying dagger, which looked like a small decorative dagger, in Ye He's hand and express his gratitude to Ye He.

[Dragon Slayer Dagger] (Legendary Treasure)
[The holder can consume "Belmont's Blood" to make this treasure show its true effectiveness, causing a great restraining effect on "Dragon" creatures. ]

"So that's how it is... Haha... If there's nothing else, I'm going to go to bed. Please do as you please."

As soon as he got the item, Ye He realized that this treasure was indeed the real thing!
