Soul Echo

In the village came a heroic, tall, adventurer who didn't look like an adventurer.

He has a weapon on his back and a blade on his waist, but he doesn't look fierce at all, even without a smile on his face, it can make people feel very gentle, which is probably He is the biggest difference from other adventurers.

Because it's winter, people don't have as much entertainment, either going out to chat with other people, or preparing things at home for next year's busy farming season.

So, after listening to people hanging out outside talking about a 'strange' adventurer in the village, the restless villagers couldn't help but peer out from behind the windows to watch.

peng peng peng!

"Jerman! Jerman!"

The son of the village chief who was in charge of receiving Zhong Ye slammed the wooden door in front of him. .

This village is less than five kilometers away from Bourges. It is a village spontaneously gathered and formed by the people. It is still under the jurisdiction of the lord of Bourges and has not been entrusted to others.

Therefore, there is no lord in this village, only the 'public opinion representative' elected by the villagers, also known as the 'village chief'.

However, the village chief is already old. If he goes out and walks at this time, it will definitely be a big trouble if he catches any disease, so the village chief asks his son to take care of Zhong Ye.

This village is the one that discovered the 'vampire trail' and reported the situation to it.

Zhong Ye told Lily and Lilian obediently to stay at the adventurer's house to rest, and then took the information obtained from the business church bishop and set off alone to this village.

Because he had the certificate issued by the bishop in his hand, the village chief soon believed his words and asked his son to take him around the village to ask those who 'witnessed the vampire'. witness.

The village chief's son is a middle-aged man with heavy body hair. He slams the wooden door with great strength, looking like he is about to remove the wooden door from the door frame.

"Come here! Don't shoot!"

An irritable voice came from the house, and soon, a man in a single shirt opened the door, "It's such a cold day. What are you doing, Kari?"

When the cold wind blew outside the door, the man in the house couldn't help sneezing, and the droplets fell directly on the village chief's son.

"Jieman, what are you doing?"

The village chief's son raised his clenched fist, and then he felt his wrist tighten and his arm was clamped, unable to move.

Looking back, it was the adventurer.

Zhong Ye shook the head, "I'm sorry, but hitting someone is wrong."

hearing this, the village chief's son shook off Zhong Ye's hand angrily, but No more fist raised.

Zhong Ye sighed, turned his head and looked towards the man called 'Jerman'.

"I heard that you have seen vampire in this village?"

Hearing this, Germaine's mouth twitched, "What does it have to do with you?"

"I'm here to destroy vampire. If you don't want to wake up one day after falling asleep, you can leave it alone." Zhong Ye shook his head and sighed, "Especially when you look at it this way. Those who have been to their whereabouts are most likely to become their targets."

Hearing this sentence, Germaine's face changed suddenly, "This, I... I said! I said!"

It seems that he does not know that all vampires are resisted by the family Goddess and cannot step into the house without being invited by the master.

After being frightened, Germaine stammered and told everything he knew - even if the wife in the room asked him why he didn't close the door, he just turned back and cursed, He turned his head and told Zhong Ye what he knew.

Because he hadn't read the book, Germaine's description was not very clear and fragmented, but Zhong Ye still relied on his associative ability to piece together the things he told.

Not long after leaving the house, Zhong Ye heard quarrels and exclamations coming from the house.

Noticing the worried eyes of the village chief's son, Zhong Ye thought for a while, then understood what he was thinking, and explained with a smile: "I cheated on him just now, if I didn't say that, he would It won't be so easy to tell the truth, in fact you don't need to worry about vampires invading your house at all, because all vampires are resisted by the family Goddess, under the protection of that Goddess, as long as you don't actively invite vampires into your house , they won't be able to step into your house.

"And don't worry about them attacking your house, because the artisan god will give your house shelter when evil creatures attack, if not They don't want to tear down your house for the price of blood, so don't worry. "

hearing this, the village chief's son was relaxed.

Then he suddenly remembered the frightened appearance of Germaine just now, and couldn't help laughing.

Although I couldn't beat him, it's not bad to see how frightened he looked.

Afterwards, Zhong Ye visited other villagers under the leadership of the village chief's son. A few families, from them enough clues have been inquired.

The actual situation is similar to what the business church told him, no one died because of vampire in this village, so people are so 'comfortable' .

Only because 'vampire' has a bad reputation and fears that he will be hurt, he will report the news.

Actually, it is 'domestic animals' that died in this village , the chickens, ducks, geese, and sheep they ranch.

For example, Germaine's family, he was the first to discover the whereabouts of 'vampire', and his family's sheep were also the first to suffer.

After his sheep was killed by 'vampire', other people's livestock gradually suffered.

Actually, Zhong Ye didn't need to intimidate Jerman, as long as he said he was here to destroy vampire, Jie Man will tell him the situation - a sheep died for no reason, and he was so angry that he wanted to kill people. At first, he saw everyone as a 'murderer' who killed his own sheep, until other people showed up. In this case, they realized that it was not the jealous neighbors who killed their livestock, but some kind of monster.

However, after the deep winter, their village was never seen again. This is the situation.

A 'vampire' who does not kill, but kills livestock?

Zhong Ye sorted out his thoughts in his mind and pieced together a 'absurd' conjecture.

This conjecture may be deviant in the eyes of the clergy of the world of Dan, so they will not think of this possibility.

It is also possible that they have already thought of this, but only in the past Their knowledge made them subconsciously deny this probability.

However, Zhong Ye was born at the end of the 21st century and grew up in the 22nd century from Earth, and he has seen it in many movies and games. Similar settings.

Even if he himself wonders whether this vampire exists, he will not directly deny this probability.

"Thank you for your help. "

Walking to the entrance of the village, Zhong Ye waved to the village chief's son, ready to leave the village.

"This, this is leaving?" "The village chief's son stared blankly at Zhong Ye, didn't he come to help them solve that vampire?

"Your village is not the only one where this kind of situation occurs. "Zhong Ye said with a smile, "Similar situations have occurred in other villages, and I still need to go to other villages to investigate to determine the movement of the 'vampire'. "

If there is only one vampire, then the frequency of that vampire feeding is too high.

However, if there is not only one vampire...how to explain They only suck the blood of animals, don't they harm humans?

Zhong Ye doesn't think that vampire must harm humans, and humans must suffer casualties, but this series of actions does not conform to human's impression of vampire.

Leaving that village, Zhong Ye ran wildly to the next village.

There are four villages around Bourges reporting to several churches in Bourges' Found information about vampire', the clergy went to investigate, but they found nothing.

This is also the most strange thing - since there is activity, there must be traces, vampire With so much activity around Bourges, why did the clergy who went to investigate found nothing?

Three villages reported that only animals were attacked there, and the other one The village, but the humans were attacked and died.

——Only this village, the situation is the same as in Bourges!
