Odd Containment Specialist.

Chapter 294 Growth Period

Xia Shou thought for a moment and said, "I need an absolutely hidden place, and find me a few vampires."

Charlie tilted his head slightly, looked at him sideways, then nodded and said a word.

"it is good."

……

……

Finally, Xia Shou was assigned to a manor, a manor dedicated to raising humans.

Everyone here is a vegetarian and is only allowed to eat fruits and vegetables. They get up at a fixed time every day, participate in group entertainment, maintain a happy mood, and then take turns donating blood.

This blood will be provided for the nobles to enjoy, while those over the age of twenty will be taken to another manor.

Charlie arranged a separate room for Xia Shou in this manor, and the person responsible for accompanying and taking care of him was Iron Mask who came to invite him last time. Iron Mask would report to Charlie any request of Xia Shou, and then Charlie would satisfy it.

Xia Shou knew that on the surface Charlie seemed to have been intimidated by his powerful strength, but in fact he still had doubts. Iron Mask was a servant as well as a monitor and observer.

But Xia Shou didn't care about these things. This was a very rare opportunity for him.

In the dark house, Iron Mask led a vampire in. It was a very young vampire and seemed to have no title yet.

Xia Shou waved his hand, letting the iron mask leave, and then looked at the vampire.

Su Weiyu stood beside Xia Shou, wiping the silver sword in her hand, feeling a little impatient.

On the way here, she had discussed with Xia Shou the possible impacts of different methods of hunting vampires, as well as the performance of vampires of different levels in recovering from injuries. It seemed that for vampires below the rank of count, beheading would have a huge impact on their actions, and those vampires could not abandon their heads and grow a new head out of thin air on their bodies.

But the count seems to be able to grow a new body from the broken head, but it takes a relatively long time.

During the process of head-body separation, the biggest impact is the delay in head-body sensing. When the head is not beheaded, the person can raise his hands in an instant, just like a normal person. The brain wave signals can be smoothly transmitted to the trunk and limbs through the nerves.

Once the head and body are separated, the vampire's manipulation of the body begins to follow another unknown principle. The transmission of feelings and thoughts will be greatly delayed. The brain releases a signal to walk, but the body may not start walking until 0.5 seconds later. It also takes 0.5 seconds for the feeling of walking to be transmitted back to the other side of the brain. This time gradually increases with the distance.

In short, vampires at the earl level cannot allow their consciousness to move at will except by using spells and supernatural powers.

Only when you reach the level of a duke can you do this. Even if a duke is beheaded, they can instantly discard the severed head, let the consciousness return to the body, and then quickly grow a new head from the body. The original severed head loses its value like a broken arm.

This is why when Su Weiyu placed those heads in front of Charles I, only George's head was dead, but after Charles rushed over, George grew a head.

The biggest gain from Su Weiyu's research is that as long as the vampire is still a human, then even if he is a duke, Su Weiyu has a considerable advantage.

"Kill him." Xia Shou said.

Su Weiyu chopped off the opponent's head very neatly, stuck the head into the ground with the silver sword, hooked her right leg back and tripped the young vampire to the ground, and pierced the heart with the silver sword in her other hand, nailing the vampire to the ground, and then sprinkled a bottle of holy water with smooth movements.

Although the vampire struggled violently, he was soon cut into pieces by the unstoppable attack.

Slowly, the vampire stopped moving, and the shadow under Xia Shou's feet spread out and began to devour.

This is Xia Shou’s plan. While Charlie is still afraid of him, he will make himself stronger as quickly as possible.

In the Control Bureau, he didn't have the courage to reveal his shadow, but in this place, without any companions around him, he had nothing to worry about.

[The swallowing is complete, and you have obtained the residue. 】

"It's a level one vampire." Xia Shou frowned in dissatisfaction. "Hey! Tamer!" Xia Shou shouted.

The door opened, and Iron Mask, dressed in black, walked in, bowed respectfully, and asked, "What do you want?"

"Tell Charlie that I want vampires with pure bloodline, not just any garbage!" Xia Shou said coldly.

Bloodline purity is actually the abnormality level, but in the sixteenth century, the scientific theory of spell power level was not popular enough, so each organization had its own set of terminology. In the blood clan, the priority of supernatural powers was included in the bloodline theory. The better the bloodline, the stronger the supernatural power and the higher the priority of effectiveness.

The stronger the bloodline, the stronger the vampire characteristics, the greater the resistance to weaknesses, and the higher the rank.

"Earl... no, Viscount, let Charlie send the oldest Viscount here." Xia Shou requested.

Xia Shou originally wanted to eat the Earl directly, but he thought that the Earl was not so easy to cook, and it would be inconvenient for Su Weiyu to slaughter him with his current condition, so he decided to start with the next level and let the Black Shadow whet his appetite first, and then advance to eat the Earl when he has more skills.

Iron Mask suppressed his inner shock and secretly glanced around the spacious and empty house.

The young man he had brought just now is gone.

He could guarantee that no one had left the room just now.

"Lord Xia, that child just now." Iron Mask hesitated to speak.

Xia Shou grinned, his smile was frightening: "Tell Charlie that I ate him."

……

……

"Did he say that?" Charlie put his hands on the table, leaning forward slightly, the corners of his mouth raised as if hooked by a wire, and the anger hidden in his eyes was directed at no one, making it difficult to tell whether he was angry because of Xia Shou's rude request or because he felt offended by himself.

Iron Mask lowered his head, looked at the other person quickly, and said "yes".

"I ate it... I actually said I ate it." Charlie muttered to himself, fell back in his chair, tapped his temple and thought, "The older viscounts will really give me problems. Hyde's grandson seems to be a good one. Let him disappear..."

……

……

That night, Xia Shou received his second meal. The blond young man was pierced all over by solidified spikes and was brought to Xia Shou tied up. The iron mask said breathlessly, "Sir Xia, I'm sorry for making it so ugly. His Majesty also hopes that you can forgive me."

"Very good, go away." Xia Shou waved his hand impatiently, but was secretly happy in his heart.

This is actually better, as it saves them from having to cook it themselves.

However, there were no signs of damage from church weapons on this man's body. Instead, he was stabbed by spikes made of solidified blood. This meant that vampires also had a unique way of killing each other, and it was so powerful that they did not need to attack each other until their recovery capacity was exhausted to determine the winner.

Xia Shou stabbed the already weak vampire to death with his silver sword, releasing a black shadow to devour the corpse.

[Degree of Devouring: 10%…]

[Degree of Devouring: 15.5%…]

Time passed slowly, and Xia Shou saw the quiet body disappear into the shadows like a piece of melting wax.

[Swallowing completed, you gain the skill——[Even in the void there is a place to land]]
