Any clue will do, Becky is very eager to know the whereabouts of Sky Island.
But the question arises: How can I get in without being discovered?
Becky can use magic to temporarily change her appearance so that ordinary people can't see her at all, and the breath of the vampires can also be concealed by using powder. As long as there is no device like the one in Dammas Fortress that can directly test the magical attributes, or there are no experienced paladins or even big figures like saints and sages present, it will certainly be difficult to detect her presence - logically speaking, these people will not come to a small town at all.
Becky is very confident about this.
Vampires have a huge advantage in this regard. They can easily integrate into humans, just like vines clinging to ancient trees. It is difficult for vampires to be directly eliminated from human society because they are difficult to distinguish from ordinary people.
The only headache is that the town seems to be completely closed to the outside world. Outsiders will definitely be strictly checked, and it will probably be difficult to get away with it if you want to make jokes. This is no longer the time to be let off just because your appearance is okay.
Becky began to feel annoyed.

181. Run away
In a room in the monastery, the paladins were guarding outside the door, and the nuns were peeking into the room with curiosity and longing.
Inside the room, Father Angus stood by the bed, his eyes concerned. Inksha and Archbishop Rigato waited nearby, while Tricia observed and confirmed.
Elsa held little Alice and coaxed her to lie down.
Alice was a little shy. Seeing a bunch of strangers staring at her, she couldn't help but bury her face in Elsa's neck. She coughed briefly, as if her throat was aching again due to the heavy rain in the past two days.
"Alice, are you okay?"
"I want to be with Sister Aisha..."
She whispered, her big watery eyes showing some anticipation and anxiety. For Alice, Elsa was the person she depended on the most.
She regards Aisha as her own sister.
"Okay, I'll accompany you."
Elsa gently placed Alice's delicate little body on the bed, then she leaned over and smiled at Alice.
"Is this okay?"
This scene reminded Elsa of the days when she had just picked up Alice. She took care of Alice almost every step of the way. At that time, Elsa almost had the illusion that she was taking care of her sister in her previous life.
"Well...what about tonight? Will Sister Aisha come back tonight?"
"I'll keep you company tonight."
"really?"
"real."
"I like Sister Aisha..."
Alice fell asleep before she could finish her sentence - Tricia had put her under a sleeping spell.
If Tricia wanted, she could easily force Alice to sleep, but hypnosis is safest and most effective when the person falls asleep voluntarily. This is also to prevent Alice from subconsciously resisting the holy light and weakening the magic effect.
"Okay, let's get started."
Tricia said.
The Archbishop and Tricia began to assist Inksa in launching the holy light magic "Great Healing". For a moment, the holy light shone and the room was brilliant.
"Great Healing" is a high-level holy light magic that can be effective on everyone within a large range. With Inksha's current strength, she should not be able to cast this kind of magic, but with the help of Rigato and Tricia, she can cast a castrated version of "Great Healing" that is only effective on one person at a time - even so, Alice's physical condition does not actually require this more advanced healing technique.
The moment the holy light rose, even the old priest beside him was stunned, and his eyes changed when he looked at Inksa.
Elsa could see that Archbishop Rigato was trying to show the goodwill of the Holy See. After all, the Saint's holy light magic was not only effective in healing injuries, but her surging vitality was extremely pure and could be considered a "favor" that could improve Alice's physical fitness.
With the Archbishop and Tricia watching and giving guidance, Inksha herself was a saint, so there was nothing to worry about - Elsa trusted them very much. On the contrary, Inksha herself seemed a little frightened, fearing that she would not be able to do it and something would go wrong. Fortunately, the treatment went very smoothly throughout.
"It's okay now. Do you want to wake her up?"
Tricia said to Elsa, who looked at Alice who was asleep in the bed.
"Just let her rest for a while."
Now she can finally feel at ease, and next, Elsa has to consider the other side of the matter.
"Let's go to the forest."
Aisha said.
At this time, several paladins appeared outside the door.
"Lady Aisha, and Master Sage, we have discovered a suspicious woman outside of town."
One of them said, his face serious.
"She ran away when she saw us, and she ran very fast. We have sent people to chase her."
"where?"
Aisha asked.
……
Becky felt that her luck was a little bad today.
She made a big circle from the light woods outside the forest, trying to approach the town from the north. She had no intention of sneaking into the town before confirming it was safe, so she just planned to get close and roughly scout the situation.
If she found that the town's defenses were too tight, she would not go in. After all, her own safety was more important. At worst, she could go back and ask the people from that organization for help. Since this matter involved Sky Island, Becky believed that those guys would definitely not stand idly by.
So she came to the outskirts of the forest north of the town.
The vampire's eyesight was excellent, and she also carried the telescope, a favorite of West Coast captains.
As long as she hides in the woods, she can easily see the people patrolling on the town wall. At this distance, the people in the town will definitely not be able to see her. Even people with special reconnaissance skills will find it difficult to match her eyesight. She can rely on her own eyesight advantage to see the situation in the town clearly.
Just a look.
——That’s how it should be.
But the fact was that before she walked out of the light forest area, she found that someone on the town wall was staring at her - she moved her gaze and met the man's eyes.
He was a tall knight. Her face could not be seen under the mask, but she could see the armor on him that belonged to the style of the Church Knights. She took a closer look and was stunned.
"People from the Church's Knights Templar???"
Becky was confused.
She would never make a mistake. It was actually the armor style of the Knights Templar - the Knights Templar wearing such armor was like a nightmare to the vampires, especially the most outstanding elite among them, those who were given the title of "Paladin". Each of them was a representative of strong men who had experienced hundreds of battles. Every year, countless of their fellow vampires died tragically at the hands of these terrifying and powerful saints.
Why would the Templars of the Church be here? And... one, two... there were at least four people visible, and they all seemed to have noticed her presence and were talking to each other.
I'm afraid there are more than four people, because that's only the number that can be seen on the wall.
Becky felt like she couldn't breathe.
No... I did hear that the Empire and the Holy See had sent people here to investigate the monsters' movements, but... these were Knights Templar! A single Knight Templar held the same rank as a bishop of a small city. Even if the monsters had caught the Church's attention, they wouldn't have sent someone of this caliber directly here, right?
And he's just patrolling the wall? Is this guy supposed to be a guard?
Don’t you think it’s an exaggeration?!
No... That's why it's strange... People of this level are willing to be guards here, so what kind of people should be staying behind?
Although Becky was obsessed with fantasy all day long, she was not stupid. When she figured this out, she turned around and ran away.
……
------------
182. Do you think you can stop me?
When the paladins on the wall saw this, they looked at each other in tacit understanding, and immediately sent two of them to chase without saying a word, another one to stand guard, and another one quickly went to the monastery to report the situation.
In the forest, Becky's face turned green.
They are chasing us... These people are actually chasing us!
Luckily, they were only two Templars. She knew atomization magic, and a little further in, she was in a complex forest, so it wasn't easy for her to catch up. Even if she was caught up, she wouldn't be powerless against the Templars... After all, she was a high-ranking vampire, wasn't she? Escape wouldn't be difficult.
But...is it really like that?
The two knights were much faster than she had imagined, and they caught up with her before she even entered the deep forest.
"Stop! Don't try to escape!"
"Show me your identity! Woman!"
How could it be so fast?! This was a light forest area with a fairly wide field of vision, so she couldn't really take advantage of it.
Becky felt a little scared, but fighting was inevitable at this time, so she simply showed her sharp claws and pounced on one of them.
However, the knight calmly held his sword in front of him, and at the first encounter, Becky's defense was broken by the knight's tricky sword piercing, and then she was faced with the tail of another knight's spear - an attack filled with powerful holy power came.
bang——
The black mist that had not yet condensed around Becky was instantly shattered, and she flew backwards dozens of meters, crashing into two trees. When she got up, she found that her fangs were all broken.
Becky was incredulous—why did these two guys look so powerful? Could a normal Templar suppress a high-ranking vampire in a single encounter?
and many more……
Could it be that these two guys... are not ordinary Templar Knights, but the most powerful one hundred Paladins among them?
Can't it be such a coincidence?
"So it's the vampire clan."
At this time, the knights also saw Becky's identity from the brief fight. Unlike Becky, they seemed so at ease.
"What are you doing here? What do you know?"
They asked.
Becky was complaining bitterly and had no time to think or answer. Now was not the time to think about anything. She saw that the two knights actually took out black potions and poured them on the blades - that was "black blood". Although it looked a bit ominous, it was a real alchemical product that was specially used to deal with vampires. As long as the vampire's skin was pierced, the black blood would quickly penetrate into the vampire's body and then disintegrate the vampire's power from the inside.
It would be very painful to be hit by a weapon soaked in that kind of stuff.
Without thinking, Becky turned into mist and escaped. How could the two knights let her escape? They immediately jumped up to catch up with her.
Becky used the black fog to flexibly maneuver through the cover of the woods, narrowly avoiding the knight's sharp sword. Suddenly, the thick tree trunk exploded, but the spear of another knight had blocked her retreat.
She gritted her teeth and chose to discard some of the blood mist. Suddenly, the dark blood mist boiled and exploded, forcing back the knight's pursuit.
She took this opportunity to retreat quickly, but the knights blocked her escape route into the depths of the woods, so she had no choice but to flee quickly towards the outskirts of the forest.
She turned back.
A little distance south of here is a swampy area close to the forest. It is Becky's last hope that she can escape the knights' pursuit. As long as she can escape them for a short time, Becky can dive into the depths of the forest and disappear without a trace.
She used all her strength to escape. She felt that the blood in her body was wailing. This was undoubtedly the second life crisis she had ever faced in her life.
The first time was when the master died.
Becky felt drowsy, which was a side effect of removing the blood mist. For vampires, blood is the foundation of their existence. Without the blood, she would lose some of her strength.
At this moment, she suddenly found a girl appearing in front of her. The girl was wearing black church clothes and was a nun.
The nun was not wearing a headscarf, but a beautiful feather hair accessory on her golden hair. She looked very gentle, without a sharp aura on her body. She had no protective gear on her body and no weapons in her hands. She just appeared in the forest, looking so abrupt.
It was Elsa.
When she saw Becky, Elsa's face showed a look of surprise and horror - on purpose.
"S-She's here! I got her!"
Elsa screamed in panic, as if calling for reinforcements nearby, which made Becky's heart sink. She saw the fear and excitement in Elsa's eyes. It looked like a fresh-faced soldier who had encountered a wounded enemy general. Although afraid, he was eager to try.
This made Betty frown slightly - what was wrong with this nun? Why did she look like a fool who had never seen the world?
Her guess came true.
"Hugh, you try to escape. I won't let you get away, you filthy vampire! Your death is coming!"
Elsa screamed and hurriedly grabbed a magic scroll, ready to tear it open, but because she was too anxious, she dropped it on the ground.
This made Aisha and Becky stunned at the same time, with different expressions on their faces.
When Becky saw the scrolls, she felt a little uneasy, because the magic of some very precious scrolls was so powerful that even she could hardly deal with it.
But she felt relieved when she saw that Aisha had lost the scroll.
