Rise from the coffin and rebuild the vampire empire

Chapter 76 Something is wrong

"Something's wrong, something very wrong."

In a luxurious room on the third floor of the Stone Forest Port Hotel, the "Lionheart Knight" Hellion spoke with a very grim expression.

"I told you there was a problem."

Opposite the red-haired burly man, Bishop Rios sighed. Sure enough, something happened, and it was a big deal.

"It's still not right! If you think there's a problem, that's your problem, but why are all the people who died my people?!"

Hellion looked confused and annoyed.

"I didn't bring my own people with me."

Bishop Rios replied calmly. He felt that what Hellion said was problematic. It shouldn't be your people, Hellion, who got into trouble. Could it be me who got into trouble?
"Bishop Rios, this is not funny."

Hellion frowned. He was in no mood to joke.

How long had it been since they arrived at Shilin Port? Ten of his men had already perished, and these were only the bodies found. Besides them, there were still seven who hadn't returned, and eighty percent of them had also perished.

"."

Rios was speechless. This muscular man who believed in the goddess of the sea was completely unaware of the verbal offense he had just made to him. He even thought that his answer was a deliberate joke.

"Maybe it's because I haven't left the hotel yet."

Faced with the grumpy old man in front of him who was obviously a little angry, Rios had no choice but to go along with him.

He knows how to think from other people's perspective. If his subordinates suffered so many losses in one go, he probably wouldn't be very nice to others.

"What? Is this hotel protected by some barrier? Can't the enemy get in?"

Hellion's tone was obviously not very good, and he seemed to still care about the incident just now. He directly retorted to Rios.

"No, it's simply because these victims all died in relatively isolated circumstances. This suggests the perpetrator didn't want to be seen. And this hotel is obviously a mixed crowd, with many of our people here too. It would be difficult for them to act here."

Rios didn't pay attention to Hellion's provocation just now, but began to analyze it seriously. It was obviously not difficult to come to this conclusion.

Because the bodies of these knights were found in various nooks and crannies, places with few people and few people going there.

"It's also possible that he deliberately dumped the body in a sparsely populated area after killing the person."

Hellion finally returned to normal. He calmed down his emotions, suppressed his anger, and began to think about more possibilities.

All we can say is that this was a completely new development, and none of them had imagined this would be the case until it actually happened.

The key figure, Bishop Rios, was safe and sound, but those who were responsible for the escort, who had in principle completed their mission, encountered a strange attack in this Stone Forest Port.

"It's possible. After all, Shilin Port is a mixed bag. Even if the Governor of Shilin Port's men took action, they wouldn't be able to cover up the news of the murder in the street. So they definitely didn't die in public."

Rios nodded. He believed that these knights must have died in a deserted place. Otherwise, as long as there were witnesses, all kinds of news would have spread everywhere.

Instead, the news did not spread until someone discovered the body. Even the Governor of Shilin Port could not control the news.

There were seventeen people, including two chivalrous knights and one adventurous knight, and the remaining fourteen were ordinary cavalry.

It is impossible for ordinary people to complete this "death list", and it is naturally even more difficult to let these knights die quietly like they are now, without causing any trouble.

"High-level wanderer?" Hellion widened his eyes and made a guess.

A powerful rogue who uses sneak attacks and backstabs to easily defeat most opponents.

Among these dead, the strongest was only an adventure knight, and even a four-dagger wanderer would do.

Daggers are the level standard of the Wanderer Industry Guild. The higher the contribution, the greater the reputation, and the more tasks commissioned, the more daggers you will get. A Wanderer with four daggers is considered the backbone of the Wanderer Industry Guild.

"It's hard to say. The wounds on the deceased are all the same, all caused by a single blow to the throat. It would be difficult for a Wanderer to achieve this level in a direct battle. That sword strike is almost perfectly replicated every time. Can an ordinary Wanderer really achieve this level?"

Rios frowned, he felt that it was quite difficult. Of course there were some wanderers who were good at swordsmanship, but being able to achieve this level had a completely different meaning, which could be called superb.

"Lord Hellion, someone from the Farstrider Church has arrived."

While Hellion and Rios were discussing, a middle-aged knight pushed the door open with a grim expression on his face. He was Hellion's adjutant, the kingdom knight whose strength was second only to Hellion.

"The Farstrider Church? What are they doing here?"

Hearing this name, Hellion couldn't help but frowned. This was one of the reasons why they escorted Bishop Rios here, so that the Lord of Dawn could snatch the believers of the God of Travel and indirectly strike a blow to the strength of the rival church.

"They said it was because of a murder."

The adjutant had a stern face and a hint of annoyance in his eyes, and was obviously very dissatisfied with this.
"boom!"

Hellion slapped the table in the room, breaking it. At that moment, the anger on his face was very obvious. Simply put, he directly entered the "red temperature state".

"These bastards are here to watch the fun, right?"

Hellion stood up and went downstairs. The adjutant glanced at Rios and followed him.
This sudden situation made Rios feel helpless. He had calmed down, but now he exploded again. He just hoped that the anger of the sea goddess would not fall on him.

Downstairs, two middle-aged men in plain clothes stood at the door. After seeing Hellion, they laughed.

"I heard something happened here and many people died."

"If you travel far from home without seeking the protection of our Lord, this kind of thing will inevitably happen."

The two middle-aged men sang in unison, as if they were really here to watch the fun.

"Need our help?"

Seeing Hellion coming down, one of the two asked.

"boom!"

However, Hellion had no intention of arguing. He raised his fist and hit the other person's nose without hesitation.

"Buzz!"

Hellion threw a punch, and the traveler had no time to block it. He could only watch the fist in front of him grow bigger and bigger. He had never expected that he would face such a situation, and he was not well prepared, so he took the punch head-on.

"Gulu~"

The force of a punch, even if it was a restrained punch, was enough to send the traveler flying, directly out of the hotel, and the hotel suddenly fell into silence.
