According to previous experience, the interval between blood draws should not be so short, but being under house arrest, Shirley had no right not to open the door.
She knew in her heart that the door of this house was just a decoration.
·
After opening the door to let Kenroshi Okami and his group into the house, Shirley sat down at the table with an expressionless face. Kenroshi Okami had an emotionless smile on his face and said some nonsense that Shirley would never believe.
"Ms. Shirley, in order to prevent your body from becoming weak due to blood collection, our blood witch girls will help you improve your body's blood production ability."
Shirley could tell at a glance that Kenroshi Okami had come with ill intentions this time.
Although this gentleman was still habitually suppressing the violence in his body, Shirley, who had seen all kinds of people in the royal family, could still feel the viciousness in this guy's heart.
In order to prevent Kenroshi Okami from taking advantage of the situation and to prevent herself from suffering unnecessary harm, Shirley did not expose the other party's polite words and agreed very cooperatively - after all, even if she wanted to resist, she was powerless at this stage.
·
Shirley's "soft attitude" made it impossible for Kenroshi Okami to vent his ruthlessness.
However, he didn't care about it, because he was not here to commit violence or vent his anger, but to continue to advance the "plan".
Under his watchful gaze, the werewolf blood witch girls began to use the blood witch's unique abilities to enhance Ice Star Shirley's blood-forming ability. This enhancement is essentially harmless if used moderately.
Previously in the "Tower", Adela, who was also a werewolf blood witch, used the same ability on the dying Jiang Ran.
However, everything in this world requires a degree of control. Once you overdo it, it will become worse than not doing enough.
Under the instruction of Kenroshi Okami, the werewolf blood witches greatly improved the blood-producing ability of Ice Star Shirley, which allowed them to shorten the blood collection interval and thus improve the blood collection efficiency. However, as a price, the vitality of Ice Star Shirley would be slowly overdrawn.
To put it more bluntly, Shirley's vitality limit will gradually decrease, and this decrease is irreversible. What's worse is that when this decrease reaches a certain level, it will endanger Shirley's life.
·
In order to complete the "Plan", Kenroshi Okami will not let Ice Star Shirley die within half a year, but he does not care about the reduction of Shirley's vitality limit.
The upper limit of vitality is not just an identified number. The upper limit of vitality also affects a person's physical strength.
For Kenroshi Okami, a weaker and easier to control Ice Star Shirley is obviously not a bad thing.
"Thank you for your cooperation, Miss Shirley."
When the werewolf blood witch girls finished their "work" for the day, Kenroshi Okami reminded Shirley again before leaving.
"As long as you and your parents continue to cooperate like this, the day of your release will come soon."
The so-called release was, of course, fake, and Kenroshi Okami knew that Shirley would not believe it.
But the reason why he said this deliberately even though he knew it was to remind Ice Star Shirley not to forget her parents in the moment of impulse.
·
·
Kenroshi Okami's reminder did work, because not long after they left, Shirley noticed something wrong with her body.
When she was about to stand up from the chair, her eyes suddenly went dark and her head felt a little dizzy. It took her several seconds to recover.
——(What’s going on…what did they do to me?)
Shirley sat down again, closed her eyes and carefully felt her physical condition, but the reduction in her vitality limit was very slight, and she could not feel this degree of change.
But even so, Shirley still relied on her intuition to guess that Kenroshi Okami was weakening his body. She knew that this guy couldn't be really kind enough to help her improve her blood-forming ability.
In order to avoid being killed by the "boiled frog in warm water" style, Shirley once again seriously considered the matter of "black magic".
When it comes to the last resort, she will save her parents even if it means sacrificing herself.
——(Dad, Mom, I'm sorry, even if it makes you sad, I have to do this.)
·

Kenroshi Okami felt much better after coming out of Ice Star Shirley's house.
The demands of the werewolf ancestors were indeed unreasonable, but if the subsequent actions went smoothly, it would not be impossible for Kenroshi Okami to fulfill their demands.
What's more, the werewolf ancestors not only kept their word and stabilized their father's opinions, but also cooperated very well to help Ken Rushi kill the troublesome intruder.
Ken Ruoxi later discovered that the intruder was most likely Elder Silver Wind, one of the five elders of the Snow Deer Clan. If his judgment was correct, then this was a very important event.
However, Kenrushi did not let down his guard. Although the intruder had been killed, the fact that the information had been leaked would not disappear with the intruder's death - the Snow Deer Family was likely to have already known the reality of the "plan", and it could no longer be changed.
However, no matter how the Snow Deer Clan obtained the information about the "Plan", and no matter how much they knew, as long as the "Plan" was completed, they would not be able to stop the werewolf army from wiping out the Snow Deer Clan.
Therefore, there is no need to change what Ken Ruoxi is going to do next. All he needs to do is to continue to push forward this conspiracy until the "plan" is successfully completed.
He would use his absolute strength to let the Snow Deer family know what a tragic end the guys who used despicable means against his brother and the villains who brought disgrace to "Herbert Okami" would have.
"Second brother, I've been looking for you for a long time!"
Just as Kenroshi clenched his fists excitedly as he imagined the future, his disliked brother "Impati Okami" appeared again.
——(This guy…didn’t I trick him away? Why is he still in the territory?)
"What's the matter?"
Kenroshi put on his usual kind expression. At this critical juncture, he didn't want any unexpected trouble to occur.
"Oh, didn't you tell me to get the 'Blood of the Ancient Dragon' myself? Then, as I was walking, I suddenly remembered, 'Brother, have you paid? If not, you have to give me the money, otherwise I won't have the money to pay even if I find the caravan."
Impati, as always, didn't use her brain where it should be, but this question wasn't so easy for Kenroshi to answer.
Based on Kenroshi's usual style, he would definitely not do such a stupid thing as "paying the full price before receiving the goods", especially for a rare and expensive luxury item like "Ancient Dragon Blood".
But it was impossible for him to give Impati a large amount of gold coins now, because he really didn't have any.
"I only paid a deposit. How about this? You take these two gold coins as travel expenses. Once you find the caravan, bring them to the territory."
Kenroshi took out the only two gold coins he had and handed them to Impati. At that time, he didn't know how huge the butterfly effect his unintentional arrangement would trigger.
8.192 - The Wolf in the Jackal's Mouth
After receiving two gold coins from his second brother Kenroshi, Impati set off happily.
He has always been stuck at around 170th place in the Werewolf Duel Rankings. In order to prove the glory of the werewolf royal family and win his father's recognition, he placed all his bets on the "Blood of the Ancient Dragon" promised to him by Kenroshi Okami.
However, Impati had no idea that his respected second brother had been playing him with blank checks the entire time.
And worse is yet to come.
·
Impati traveled day and night for a whole day, just wanting to see his "Blood of the Ancient Dragon" as soon as possible.
According to his original estimate, it would take another day's journey to meet the caravan his second brother mentioned. However, he did not expect that after crossing a hill, he saw a group of people in the dust, and there were two carriages in the group, which should be loaded with goods.
——(How lucky! I ran into him so soon!)
Patty's fatigue was swept away in an instant. He immediately jumped up and ran tirelessly towards the team that looked like a caravan. However, after he gradually saw the true appearance of the team, his pace slowly slowed down.
——(Tsk… why are these unlucky guys here…)
Impati changed his attitude because he saw that all the members of this team were gnolls.
The werewolf clan has always looked down on the gnolls because these guys are despicable and cunning and never rely on direct strength to win.
It is no exaggeration to say that even talking to a jackal would make a werewolf feel that it was a tarnish to his identity.
Looking at the group of gnolls not far away, Impati instinctively wanted to turn around and leave, but when he thought of the two carriages, his feet were "nailed" to the ground and he couldn't move.
——(If things go wrong, the "blood of the ancient dragon" that my brother mentioned really is in their hands...)
·
Inpati's guess was not without basis. A rare and precious treasure like the "Blood of the Ancient Dragon" was impossible to obtain through ordinary channels.
Since the second brother was able to get it, it is likely that he used some evil means.
If we were to identify the most despicable people in the Farnese Empire, it would be none other than the gnolls.
——(Alas, my brain is still not very smart. I didn’t even ask my second brother what the caravan was called before leaving.)
Impati subconsciously put the two gold coins given by his second brother deeper into his pocket, then gritted his teeth, jumped in the direction of the werewolf caravan, and stopped them while waving and shouting.
·
As soon as the werewolf caravan saw that the person blocking their way was a werewolf, and a werewolf royal with blue hair, they immediately went into combat posture.
The three of them stood in front, and the rest retreated to the back to protect the carriage in case the werewolf royal family or other accomplices suddenly appeared and launched an attack.
"You...what do you want to do?!"
The leading hyena leader raised his dagger and asked the werewolves questions tremblingly.
Seeing how cautious and fearful the other party was, Impati secretly mocked the werewolves for being cowardly, and then generously spread his hands to them to show that he had no hostility.
"Don't be nervous, jackals. I just want to ask you, do you have anything in your cargo that my second brother, Kenroshi Okami, wants?"
Because Patty didn't ask directly about the "Blood of the Ancient Dragon" here, he at least knew that such things should not be talked about casually.
"Kenroshi…Okami?"
The leading hyena looked at Impati suspiciously. Up to this point, he still hadn't figured out what this werewolf royal family had done and whether it would pose a threat to their caravan.
To be honest, the gnolls had no idea what Kenroshi Okami wanted, and their caravan had nothing to do with the unattainable son of the Wolf King.
However, after the werewolf royal family mentioned the name of "Kenrushi Okami", who was quite famous in their black market world, the werewolf leader felt that he could not tell the other party honestly, because most of the werewolves related to Kenrushi Okami were very dangerous.
——(Even if I answer that I don't have it, if this guy insists on searching, we won't be able to stop him. We might as well just go along with him and find an opportunity to trick him later...)
Thinking of this, the werewolf leader decided to test the werewolf royal family, who didn't seem to be very smart.
"Master Kenroshi has a vast collection of things. May I ask what specific merchandise you are referring to?"
The gnoll leader stared at the werewolf royal family while speaking, and then, when the werewolf royal family was about to answer, he immediately stopped them.
"Hey! Wait, you better think carefully before you speak. If you say something wrong, we won't let you take anything even if we have to burn all the goods!"
The gnoll leader spoke seriously, but in fact it was just to disguise himself as an excellent caravan that would never surrender.
He could now see that this werewolf royal family member who only had muscles didn't understand the situation at all. As long as he continued to deceive him, he might have a chance to turn this guy into their "commodity".
And as the gnoll leader saw, Impati was now completely fooled by the gnolls.
Impati now thinks that this werewolf caravan is indeed the team his second brother described. He is so lucky!
"Hehe, don't worry, I won't be wrong."
Impati laughed triumphantly twice, then gave the answer with great confidence.
"My second brother, Kenroshi Okami, wants you to deliver something called 'Blood of the Ancient Dragon.' Am I right? Hurry and show it to me! Oh, and my name is Impati Okami, Kenroshi Okami's younger brother!"
·
When the hyena leader heard the words of the werewolf royal family, his eyes almost popped out of his sockets.
That guy Kenroshi Okami is actually dealing in something as valuable as the "Blood of the Ancient Dragon"!
——(I never thought I'd stumble upon such valuable information while traveling. If I could somehow obtain the 『Blood of the Ancient Dragon』… I'd never have to worry about food and drink in my next life… no, for several lifetimes!)
However, before getting the "Blood of the Ancient Dragon", they had to find a way to deal with this silly brother first.
In terms of combat capability, all the gnolls put together are no match for the werewolf royal family, but gnolls never fight the enemy head-on.
"Sorry, sorry, for the safety of the goods, we have to be more cautious."
The leading gnoll pretended to apologize and then winked at his men.
"Go and take out the 'Blood of the Ancient Dragon' and show it to Lord Impati."
The gnoll's subordinate understood what he meant and immediately went into the carriage to search. After a while, he came back holding an old earthenware jar.
"Uh, no, I'm talking about 'Blood of the Ancient Dragon'? What are you doing with a broken jar like this?"
The werewolf royal family had strong objections, but the hyena leader immediately calmed him down.
"Master Impati, it's precisely because it's the 'blood of an ancient dragon' that we're using the worst possible container to disguise it. Isn't that the truth?"
With just this one sentence, the gnoll leader convinced the werewolf royal family, and he struck while the iron was hot and said something that the werewolf royal family could not refuse.
"If you don't believe me, how about we pour some out and inject it into you?"
·
The words of the gnoll leader were like handing a vintage wine to a drunkard. The werewolf royal named Impati was completely unable to resist the temptation of the "blood of the ancient dragon" and immediately stretched out his arm for the gnolls to inject him.
