Chapter 210: Blood Hunter's Second Character (Part 3)
The weather in the morning was not very good, and thick fog on the top of the mountain could be seen from the village.
As its name "Misty Mountain" suggests, this mountain is shrouded in fog all year round, but it is not so obvious every day.
Ajin originally planned to go into the mountains to set traps today. Ever since the vampires on the mountain got a new leader, he hasn't received any bounties since.
It is far from enough to make a living by doing some carpentry on weekdays. The silver blood hunting equipment almost spent all the family wealth. Only by hunting vampires can the investment be recovered.
He secretly sighed that he was unlucky and happened to meet a smart guy who led the vampires.
If it were in the past, wouldn't it be possible to catch a vampire that escaped and harmed people and livestock with just a random trap?
You can't catch a wolf without sacrificing a lamb. Even though there will be casualties and economic losses, what does that have to do with him?
If he feeds himself, his whole family will not be hungry. The child he gave away was definitely not his own, and there was no living creature in his house except himself.
It is natural to take a gamble on such a blood hunter. Most people who choose this profession, like Ajin, live only for themselves.
All they had to do was to collect the bounty from the Holy Church and the Paladins. If they were meritorious, they might even be able to get a stable job from it.
Forget it. It’s so damp these days that even being a carpenter is difficult. I might as well try my luck.
Blood hunting is a job that depends on the weather. It is indeed dangerous on the mountain when there is heavy fog, but the probability of vampires falling into traps is also high.
Anyway, I'll starve to death if I stay at home without work, so maybe I'll be recognized by the Paladins if I give it a try?
It is said that to become a true knight, one must be able to hunt vampires independently.
Even if you are treated as a delicious meal by vampires while working hard, it is better than eating up all the food you have.
So, Ajin took the semi-assembled trap and other blood hunting equipment for self-defense and headed towards the mountain.
When I was a child, my family members told me not to go up the mountain on foggy days. But when I grew up, I realized that sometimes there is no other choice but to take such risks.
Along the way, many people greeted him.
"Ah Jin, are you going up the mountain again today? The fog is so thick, you have to be careful."
"I haven't seen a vampire in a while. Jin, you have to try harder today."
"Hey, Jin, are you going into the mountains? I was thinking of asking you to make some furniture in a few days when the weather is good. My new house is about to be built, so I want to prepare it first."
The village was not big and they were all neighbors, so he agreed to all the requests.
In fact, there were a few people with bad intentions, but he ignored them.
"A Jin, this kid, wants to hunt vampires? I think he is just dreaming!"
"Just because you succeeded once with the old blood hunter, do you really think you can make a living from this? I think people should still know themselves."
"Ha, I don't know who is the prey between him and the vampire!"
Ajin was a little angry after hearing this, but he didn't have time to argue with those people, and he didn't even bother to give them a glance.
If he succeeds, the whole village will regard him as a hero!
If those vampires could be eliminated, the villagers wouldn't have to worry about being sucked blood.
Moreover, they can climb as high as they want in the Misty Mountain, and all the resources on the mountain belong to them.
Now, except for going to church, who would dare to go to Misty Mountain casually?
That group of vampires occupied most of the mountain, but this was supposed to be the village's mountain. All the villagers were forced to stay at the foot of the mountain, or at most halfway up the mountain. It goes without saying whose fault it was!
Becoming a vampire hunter yourself is also a way to eliminate harm to the people!
After sublimating the connotation of hunting blood, Ajin became more confident.
He does this not just for his own benefit, everyone in the village should support him!
When he reached the church halfway up the mountain, he hesitated and decided not to go to the place with the beautiful stained glass windows.
It would not be good for me to go there in this state.
Ajin knew that he was just a carpenter who was dissatisfied with the status quo. Calling himself a blood hunter was something he could do only in the village, but he would not dare to be so arrogant in the territory of the Holy Church.
Even if they were hunting vampires, they had to have a legitimate reason. For someone like him who came from a wild background, the most he could do was to go to them to claim the reward after he succeeded, but he should not show up in front of them before he had achieved results.
And the bishop he had met was very strange.
Once he followed an old hunter to bring a captured vampire to the church to claim credit. The bishop looked at the vampire's face as soon as he came up, as if he wanted to identify who he was.
At that time, the bishop seemed to relax after confirmation and gave them a very generous reward.
Forget it. At least it’s good enough to hunt down a vampire. Who cares who it is?
All those love, hate, and vengeance have nothing to do with him, the blood hunter.
So he continued to walk higher up the Misty Mountains.
The fog on this day was really exaggerated. It was still very thick at this point, and the visibility became lower the higher we went.
Ajin had no choice but to set the trap in the last place he could see clearly, and looked around to see if there was any trace of vampires.
He learned this technique after asking the old hunter for help several times, and it can be said that he can track with 100% accuracy.
But vampires can fly, so the probability of leaving footprints on the ground is not high, and the probability of hitting tree branches during flight is also not high, so the possibility of finding traces is small.
But he was lucky today, and soon he found a few places.
However, this vampire did not seem to be alone, and there were actually human shoe prints in the middle.
You know, people who are "prey" will not be comfortable and down-to-earth, so, who is this person?
Moreover, these shoes don’t look like the kind that ordinary people usually wear. The style and material are probably not bad. They look more like... a part of the Holy Church uniform!
Could it be the bishop? After all, that man looked like he had had some kind of relationship with a vampire.
Ajin couldn't jump to conclusions. In order to satisfy his curiosity and find the vampire, he followed the footprints step by step to the top of the mountain.
It was not until he was almost at the castle that he remembered something.
By the way, if you want to say that it is related to vampires, the person who was rescued from the execution ground at that time is absolutely conclusive evidence!
Sure enough, when he looked towards the castle, he saw the man.
The one next to the other person is the vampire who rescued him at that time!
I don't know why a good priest has to do with vampires. Isn't this a shame to the Holy Church?
The strangest thing is that this guy is actually dressed like a priest. Doesn’t the Holy Church care?
The villagers had no idea where the priest was. When Ajin saw this scene, he thought that the priest had been staying in the vampire castle since he was rescued.
They didn't know that this man actually traveled around preaching the gospel, but he never forgot his original intention of joining the holy religion.
Ye Xing looked out from the garden and saw a sneaky figure.
Are there any humans who dare to come to the land of vampires?
He dared to break in with only several liters of blood in his body. Was he really not afraid or was he killed by his own curiosity?
And he doesn't look like he's here for sightseeing, but rather for revenge. He's wearing silver and silver accessories, so he's definitely here to target the vampire.
Could it be that this is a blood hunt?
It seems that Xiaoxue's job as the tribe leader is not safe either, as the Blood Hunter actually comes to him.
"Sir, what's wrong?" The little vampire saw that the other party was staring blankly outside, and thought that the blood clan's castle was not well-received, so the gentleman wanted to leave, "Did I do something wrong?"
Yes, sir, you are a human being, so it is normal for you to feel uncomfortable staying in the castle of the vampires.
Maybe I didn't do what I should do to entertain guests.
However, the next sentence saved him from the self-blame.
Before the vampire's tears fell, the priest pointed in the direction of the woods and said, "Is there a blood hunter over there?"
Ye Xuan noticed that Xiaoxue was almost crying. Seeing that the tearful look on his face was gradually replaced by a serious scrutinizing look, he felt relieved but at the same time, he felt that the other party was a little strange.
Having said that, Xiaoxue, as the clan leader, does look unfamiliar to me.
In his impression, the other person was a well-behaved and cute person, but this was the first time he saw such an expression.
Xiaoxue, who became the clan leader, looked quite majestic, so he felt relieved and didn't have to worry about the vampires under the other party being disobedient.
After all, this appearance is still quite intimidating.
"It is indeed a blood hunter, sir, you have a very good eyesight... The fog is so heavy today, how could this person still walk up the mountain?" Xiaoxue was a little confused.
But seeing flowers in the fog has its own unique charm, which is why he invited the gentleman to the garden to appreciate the flowers today.
But in this kind of weather, no one should go up the mountain.
Even if they are blood hunters, they will only go into the mountains when the fog is almost gone.
Doubts appeared in his blood-red eyes, but the little vampire just smiled at the priest: "Sir, that blood hunter is not a big threat. We can handle it."
Sir, you must be caring about me and my fellow tribesmen. My heart, which cannot beat, feels warm.
"Is that so? Then it's okay." Ye Xuan looked at Xuelie again. The other party had already hidden himself. It seemed that he had noticed their attention.
Isn't that a job that relies on hunting vampires? Why are you being so cautious?
But it is also true that even animal hunters would not directly break into a nest, as that would simply be courting death.
He didn't know much about Blood Hunt, he only knew that many players had also taken on related tasks.
What purpose did this person come here for?
When faced with vampires and humans, the priest naturally would not favor the former.
But between the blood hunter and the little blood, he would naturally protect the little vampire.
If that person came to harm Xiaoxue, he would not let him succeed.
Those were the children he had rescued, and they were not someone that others could harm just for the sake of reward.
"Sir, the blood hunter has gone far away." Seeing that the other party's expression was somewhat solemn, Xiaoxue tugged at the priest's wide sleeves as he did before.
Even if the Blood Hunter came directly to his door, he would not be afraid.
After becoming the leader of the blood clan, he has overcome many difficulties.
