Chapter 19 Conflicts of Faith
As soon as Sauron entered the front foot, a figure followed him in.
However, he did not walk directly through the main entrance like Soren, but quietly climbed through the window from the side and entered one of the rooms. The luxurious room here was a bit out of place than this remote town. There were even some extremely expensive oriental porcelain on the ledges in the corner of the wall. The ground was covered with soft carpets, and the quilts in the room were expensive velvet. From any angle, the decoration here was not something that a small noble in a remote area could enjoy.
There is not much arable land in Kuye Town and there is not much specialty. The taxes mainly depend on the rent collected by the lord.
This little money is to barely maintain a decent life.
It is estimated that in some larger cities, slightly rich merchants can live a little more comfortable life than such nobles.
But now looking at the decorations in this house, at least they are at the level of the Viscount nobles, that is, the luxurious decoration of the private manor of the middle-level nobles.
This aristocratic background may not be too clean!
After walking around this luxurious mansion, Sauron realized that the other party's identity might not be clean.
Simply put.
A normal income cannot maintain such a life. Ordinary bedrooms are decorated at this level. I guess the owner's bedroom can be comparable to the bedrooms of Golia in Baima City.
What is Gloria?
She is a member of the Northland Witch Council and the actual leader of a Northland city. The status gap between the two cannot be compared.
Da da da da da.
Soren, who was moving forward, suddenly stopped. He was completely invisible in the stealth state, so he was not worried about being discovered by others. Just now, a vampire servant walked past him, and did not notice Soren standing one meter away in front of him. Unless there was a clear smell of blood on Sauron and was discovered by the vampire's blood tracking ability, they would basically not be able to detect Soren's existence.
A slight noise came from another room.
Soren took a step back alertly, and then saw a room with a window on the side that was opened, but no figure was seen. The door was just opened gently and then closed gently.
Wanderer!
There is also a high-level wanderer here.
The opponent's stealth ability is comparable to that of Sauron. Sauron cannot see through the opponent's stealth, and the opponent does not seem to notice Sauron.
If it weren't for the sudden opening of the room, it would be estimated that the two of them would have to be close enough to discover the other party by relying on their perception and experience accumulation. But now Soren has determined the other party's position first, and the initiative is unintentionally in his hands. If he wants, he can even kill this target within three seconds.
But if he does that, his traces will be revealed.
Sauron had a hint of curiosity in his heart. He temporarily restrained his idea of determining the other party's identity, but followed quietly, setting a distance apart, and then planned to see what he came here to spy on.
Surely not a vampire person!
Not many people are bored to stealth in their territory. He obviously waited for the vampire servant to leave before coming out. It is very likely that he was a stalker from other forces.
In such a remote town, in addition to the Eyeless Soren, there would be high-level wanderers.
This house is relatively large.
The wanderer in front seemed to be familiar with him. He should have come to investigate secretly. He only saw him turning around and approaching a door. Then he opened a door leading to the basement.
Squeak.
There was a clear sound when the door was opened, and the wanderer in front seemed a little nervous.
After opening the door, he sneaked in quietly, and then he closed the door casually. It was undoubtedly a good habit to close the door casually. Soren had no choice but to wait for a while in the spotlight. Then he gently opened the door. There were torches on both sides of the basement, and the layers of steps below led to the depths. It looked like there was an authenticity. It was probably a bit old and a few years later.
Just entered the basement.
Soren smelled a faint smell of blood.
At the corner of the stairs, he saw a limp body. His killing method was straightforward and simple. He killed him with one blow. He directly hit the enemy's heart and then broke the opponent's neck.
"He's a master!"
Sauron looked at the corpse and his expression gradually became serious. The vampire servant's vitality is very tenacious. It is definitely not something that ordinary wanderers can do if they can kill with such a quick blow. Either he is an experienced veteran, or he is a high-level profession with a profession level above 16. Sauron saw a little bit of the assassin's ruthlessness from the position where the corpse was hit.
This guy may have received assassin's combat training!
Following the passage, you can see some weird murals. Sauron didn't have time to look at them because he found two more bodies in front.
"Close to the strength of the legend!"
Sauron glanced at the two corpses that were falling in the corner, and his expression became more serious, because these two enemies were killed with one blow, and they killed two enemies at the same time without alarming others. Even with Sauron's current ability, it was not so easy. The profession level of the wanderer in front might have reached more than 18.
In other words, he is at least a quasi-legendary wanderer!
As he went deeper and deeper, Sauron's vision gradually widened, and a large secret room appeared in front of him. The most eye-catching thing was one of the buildings similar to the altar. There was a blood pool in the center of the altar, and there were several smaller blood pools on all sides. No wonder these vampires did not find that their companions were killed. The smell of blood here was too strong, and it was basically impossible for them to smell another smell of blood.
The altar of the vampire god!
As a dark creature that feeds on the blood of living people, Sauron naturally does not expect to see anything good near their altar.
However, judging from the size of these blood pools, it seems that vampires have been entrenched here for a while, and there are not dozens or hundreds of missing people, so they are simply not satisfied with these blood pools.
Prayer rituals are being held in the altar!
The center is a priest wearing a black robe, and then an elderly man dressed in a obviously noble manner. Vampires will not age, so his current appearance undoubtedly means that he was transformed into a vampire by others after his body entered an old state. As for the reasons for becoming a vampire, it is probably not just a few.
Fanatic prayer ceremony.
Sauron did not find the wanderer at the beginning, but he could be sure that the other party was hiding somewhere nearby.
"Bring the offerings!"
After completing the final prayer, the black-robed priest commanded the believer who was kneeling under the altar.
soon.
Then a man was taken to the altar.
His body was shackled by chains. From his back, he seemed not an ordinary person. He did not need to use shackles forged by stainless steel to deal with vampires like ordinary people.
This is a professional!
Soren couldn't see the other person's appearance from behind, nor could he judge his profession, so he could only be sure that he should be a melee professional.
but.
As the man who was sacrificed was brought up, Sauron immediately noticed that the nearby shadow was twisted.
"Kneel down!"
The black-robed priest shouted coldly, but he responded to a mouthful of thick phlegm and a voice with a fanatic breath. "The eyeless person is the true god! You believers of the false gods will not live long!"
Bang.
He punched the man and kept the man's words back.
Hearing what he said, Sauron immediately sorted out the whole story. It seemed that the Eyeless and the Vampire Church had a conflict. Both sides wanted to put the place here into their territory, and it seemed that the Eyeless believer was captured by the vampire. When the man on the altar was punched hard, Sauron also saw the other party clearly when he turned sideways. The man had only one eye and the other eye socket was empty.
Senior members of the Eyeless Organization!
Only true believers will dig out their eyes. No wonder higher-level wanderers come to save him.
but.
How can a wanderer defeat these vampires?
As soon as Sauron felt a little confused, he felt a tremor around him, and then a violent noise came from above.
