"What? Is it made up?" Drunk Sword Immortal showed a shocked face.
"Is it true?" Qian Pangpang couldn't help but asked in surprise: "I always thought it was true. Didn't I expect it to be made up?"
"If I remember correctly, this is indeed the case, so Cain and others should not be added to the game." Li Yan smiled and continued to talk: "It is another origin of the rumor - Count Dracula , is likely to be added to the game.”
"Dracula? Oh! I've heard of this too." Drunk Sword Immortal couldn't help but become interested.
Even Tomitake, who had been silent until now, raised his ears and took two steps forward.
"In fact, he cannot be regarded as the origin of vampires. He can only be regarded as one of the most famous vampires. He is a vampire image in the horror novel "Dracula" at the end of the 19th century. He has brought great influence to the vampire culture of later generations. Influence. After Dracula, the vampire is no longer the ugly, intelligenceless animal image in the real legend, but is portrayed by the author as a very smart and gentle gentleman with strong attraction to the opposite sex. " Li Yan said this.
"I've heard about this." Drunken Sword Immortal spoke hurriedly, and began to tell the story with great emotion: "It is said that Count Dracula responded to the church's call and led his troops to participate in the war. However, he did not expect that after the victory, he returned to the castle. He found that his lover had been deceived by the rumors spread by the enemy and thought that Dracula had been killed, so he committed suicide. But according to the Bible, people who commit suicide cannot go to heaven.
He served God all his life, but his lover was thrown into hell, so he shouted angrily: 'O God! I fought for you, but this is how you treat me! ’ Then he raised his sword and pierced the icon. The icon left blood, and he took it with the Holy Grail in front of the icon and drank it. Faced with the stone statue of God, he swore a heavy oath: "I will be reborn after I die!" And feed on blood! Use all my evil power to fight against you! Even if you never get reincarnated! ! . 'From then on, he became a vampire! He turned into a god of death who returned to the world from the gloomy tomb to suck the blood of living people! "
After Fuwu listened to Drunk Sword Fairy's words, he couldn't help frowning and asked: "Then who is the ancestor of vampires?"
"This..." Drunk Sword Immortal was speechless for a moment and couldn't help but turn his head to look at Li Yan.
The other two people also looked at Li Yan.
"Why are you looking at me?" Li Yan looked at the three of them in surprise, then spread his hands, shrugged, and said, "I don't know, who can explain this thing clearly? The legend of vampires has been around for a long time. In fact, it’s not necessarily later than the Holy See, but werewolves are older. It’s like who among you can tell what the first Chinese monster was?”
This rhetorical question confused the three of them.
Just when the scene was gradually becoming awkward, Luke's voice suddenly came from outside the Holy See: "Oh, Lord Baron! Why are you here?"
Several people looked back and happened to see a man walking into the church.
When they saw this man for the first time, the first impression left in everyone's mind was "white"!
The skin is too white, not the normal whiteness, but a kind of pathological paleness, which looks a bit strange. If it were placed on other people, it would definitely look a bit oozing.
But this man's handsome appearance balances this very well, and coupled with a pair of deep black eyes, people can't help but think that this is normal and natural.
After the man entered the church, he nodded slightly to Li Yan and the others, and at the same time showed a decent smile, showing off his demeanor.
Luke, who ran out at some point, was following behind what he called "the Baron".
Luke stretched out his hand and introduced Li Yan and others to the man: "Baron, these four people are the hired mercenaries, and they are also the people who have been helping me stabilize the situation just now."
Then Luke faced Li Yan and others and said, "This is Baron Allen. Although your affairs have been handled by Mr. Marcus before, it is actually Lord Allen who paid."
Li Yan couldn't help but feel startled when he heard this.
Um? So, isn't it true that there is no proof now? Then you don't have to worry about exposing any flaws.
These mercenaries are not from the village, and now even the only priest with some connection is dead, which means that there will be very few NPCs who can impress them in this game. Not even that!
Li Yan's expression remained unchanged, he placed his left hand on his right chest, nodded slightly, and the three people behind him also followed suit and saluted together.
Baron Allen immediately returned the greeting, holding his right chest with his left hand, taking off his hat with his right hand, bowing slightly forward and nodding at the same time.
Then he slowly straightened up, and then said with a smile: "There is no need for these mercenary gentlemen to be like this. In fact, I am no longer a noble."
After saying that, he turned his head again and said to Luke: "I already know the matter. I'm sorry about Father Marcus. Luke, please tell everyone that this time, just like every year, there is something wrong with the family." All adult men are sent out to follow these mercenaries on patrol at night. Remember to bring bows, arrows and axes. The purpose is to protect the safety of the villagers, so pursuit is not required, but if there is a chance, whether it is a werewolf or something else, You can kill them all.”
After speaking, Baron Allen smiled and nodded to everyone, then turned around to leave. When he reached the door, he turned around and said: "The eldest son of Jack's family and the youngest son of John's family, they are here." At this time last year, he passed away because he was protecting the village, so don’t send people this year and just protect your family with peace of mind."
"Okay! I understand, Baron." Luke said quickly.
Seeing Luke nod, Baron Allen left.
Outside the door, there was a bearded middle-aged man, who seemed to be a guard or something. When he saw Baron Allen coming out, he immediately followed him and left.
Watching the baron slowly walk away, Li Yancai asked Luke with some confusion: "He just said he was no longer a noble? What did he mean?"
Luke scratched his head, and then said: "Actually, he is indeed not a nobleman anymore, but his father is a baron, and his grandfather is also a baron, but for some reason, when it comes to him, it is no longer the case, but the villagers have always been Call him Lord Baron."
"Uh..." Li Yan was speechless.
Luke looked helpless and continued: "Actually, when I first came here, I didn't understand anything. Everyone called me that, so I followed suit. Although I gradually learned about it later, It’s not a good idea to suddenly change my words, so I have no choice but to continue calling her that, it’s just a title anyway, it doesn’t matter.”
