Chapter 748: I Will Be Careful

I'm going over there. The bread was expensive to sell, requiring a silver coin, which took the common people days to acquire. So don't look at the merchants who put their stalls in the middle of the market, but there are not many customers.

"This thing is too expensive." I said casually as I paid.

"Not expensive, sir, not at all," the businessman tried to explain. "If you ship it north, you can sell it for two silver coins." I don't know why, but he has a sad face when he does business. "This is the last batch. You see, if they weren't so small that I couldn't rent a car to ship them, I wouldn't be selling them cheap here."

"The last batch? Is the fruit ripening period over?" I handed the bread to Mimi with one hand and asked curiously.

"The authorities have blocked the road," replied the businessman. "You just got here, don't you know the news?"

I admit that he has just arrived in town and is ignorant of recent events. "Why did officials block the road? What happened to the accident?"

"This is nothing new. In fact, it was the vampires who were fomenting the rebellion. As the situation was getting worse, the officials thought that the vampires must have outside support, so they temporarily cut off the only way out."

"Is it that serious?" I asked. The businessman put the money in his wallet, so he didn't notice what I was looking at at the moment. Of course, even if he had noticed, he'd been a little confused at best.

"It's really serious. Sylvania has been divided into three regions: Via, Estella, and Meno. I've heard that originally the vampire and his claws were only active in Meno. Although it's a very It is a big threat, but the other two places are finally safe. But recently I heard that the power of vampires has gradually expanded to the other two places, and spread to the whole of Sylvania."

"Has the local garrison been wiped out by vampires?" I interrupted the other side, I asked. In a remote area and place of exile like Sylvania, in order to maintain local order (also because the mountain is far away from the emperor), the Lord should have a large number of private soldiers, as well as an army directly under the royal family. Being able to defeat enemies to this extent means that vampires already have considerable strength.

"No!" the merchant murmured for a while, and answered in the affirmative.

"The vampire and his claws have been fighting guerrilla warfare. Though they heard they couldn't even force God out of the city, only destroy the army or something. But neither. All the cities are still here! After all, In addition to the armies of the lord, the royal family, and the church, Silvania's army is quite impressive. If you want to destroy these armies, there is no such easy way!"

"Since the army is still there, how can the lord squeeze in the city and not go out? Unless the vampires are besieging the city! As you said, what is the reason for the traffic jam?"

"Guests, you have the right people to ask this question. If you ask someone else, you must be curious! But I know the truth. To be honest, I have been to Istria and I have seen vampires surrounded by their own eyes the castle. I have seen everything in the castle myself."

"Guests," the merchant approached me, "I will tell you in secret." Although the officials never admitted that the vampires had organized an army, I saw the vampires of the undead legion appear in the darkness outside Estella Castle . It was a horrible scene. A group of glowing skeletons haunts the city from time to time. But as soon as dawn broke, the undead army disappeared immediately. Even if you send your best boy scouts, you won't find any clues. Magicians thought it was the effect of magic. However, the related magic cannot be done casually, but requires the consumption of a large amount of related magic medicine. in other words. Vampires can obtain special herbs that do not appear in Sylvania from outside! I think that's why Ryan closed the commercial road! "

"Master, it seems that the vampire has gained some power, but not enough to fight the human stronghold head-on. Therefore, he tried to scare God away by spreading fear, so he won without the war." In her In her mind, Carrie analyzed.

"Well, yes. Anyway, let's go to City Hall to see the announcement. Someone just said that caravans are not allowed. But single travelers should be fine."

This level is only half a day away from the city, and it is better to know the specific policies than to get there. "Master, this bread is delicious!" Mimi said suddenly. The breadfruit was almost half the size of her body, but she had already eaten half of it. "Aren't you going to eat?"

"No, I don't need to eat." I replied. There are many mysteries about his body that even Carrie cannot explain. For example, his senses of smell and taste are intact (much stronger than in the past), but these ordinary foods do not appeal to the appetite at all. He could smell the breadfruit, and he knew the flavors of food even nuances, but he just couldn't take a bite.

By this time, they had left the metropolitan area and started entering residential areas with fewer pedestrians. I didn't ask for directions, but I found that I instinctively knew the way to City Hall. In his heart, he knew the city like the back of his hand. He must have gone by a lot, or something really important happened, so after being washed away by the heart of the piano, he still knows it all.

"Master, do you want to go? Have you seen that vampire?" Mimi suddenly changed the subject.

"Yes" I answered. "Maybe, it's the last one in the world."

"Does the master know him? Does he know that his master is coming to see him?"

"No, I don't know. I don't think he knows me either." Other than the Queen of Piano Hearts, I don't really know any vampires, let alone their names.

"In this case, has the master

I have considered it. Maybe the vampire didn't like his master seeing him. "

"It's possible," I said. "I will be careful."

He stopped and looked at the scene in front of him. Miru also looked curiously at the crowd in the square ahead and the black smoke rising from the middle.

"Master, what is this?" Mimi asked.

"It's fire!" I replied. The black smoke seemed to evoke something deep in his soul, making him feel an instinctive pain and anger. "That's burning people alive."

Mimi's expression was half surprised, half scared. In her conception, she probably never set fire to any of her kind. Even if she lived in Oran City before, she had never seen such a thing.

Suddenly, a shadow passed by me. When Mimi realized it was a young man, the two followed him.

"Thief! Catch the thief!" the boss yelled in a distinctly foreign accent while chasing him. They ran away in the blink of an eye. The thief turned into an alley, and the owner immediately followed. Like all prosperous cities, this sort of thing is taken for granted. No one to help the shopkeeper hunt down the thief.

"Master, that person is in danger." Mimi said to me suddenly.

"Is it dangerous? Master?"

"Well, Miru heard voices over there. It was the sound of metal rubbing, and talking. Someone was saying, 'Come on, get ready.' It was in that alley! I don't think it It's ordinary theft."

Although my hearing is already strong compared to humans, it is still not as good as Mimi. ..
