Chapter 95 Who doesn’t want to survive?
The uncle shook his head and said, "It's not clear yet. Let's wait and see. If nothing works, we can just fight these guards."
At present, the number of guards in Brown Castle is slightly more than theirs. If they force their way out, they can still get out, but they may get hurt or even suffer casualties.
They will not confront the guarding NPCs head-on unless it is absolutely necessary.
***
The next day, the players were somewhat surprised to hear that Vlad would accept the invitation to attend the wedding at Bran Castle.
They pretended to be curious and asked the guard NPC, "Lord Vlad and Count Dracula of Bran Castle, are they familiar with each other?"
When the guard NPC heard them ask this, he knew they must be vampire hunters from outside the area.
"You're new here, no wonder you don't know. Lord Vlad and Count Dracula are twin brothers."
When the male player heard the news, he was so shocked that he was speechless.
So, Vlad is a vampire boss as powerful as Dracula?
They had always believed that the city lord was a good person, but they never expected that he was also a vampire?!
The male players finally understood the message Zhen Jinli wanted to convey to them. After a round of word of mouth, by the evening, all the players knew that Vlad was a vampire.
When the uncle player with a gun heard the news, he thought for a moment and quickly understood Zhen Jinli's intention.
"She wants to use the wedding as an excuse to get rid of the most difficult Vlad," he speculated.
"The remaining guards are mostly minions, so it won't be that difficult for us to deal with them."
"Vampires are afraid of light, so the guards in the city lord's manor should be humans with special powers or relatively powerful during the day, and vampire guards at night."
The male player nodded. Although they didn't understand why Vlad, one of the vampire leaders, would protect humans, they didn't need to delve too deeply into the reasons.
All they need to know is that the guards in the city lord's manor will be replaced by vampires at night.
Now that I think about it, what Zhen Jinli said about taking the city lord's treasure and not allowing them to leave until she returned it was all nonsense.
The most likely possibility is that Zhen Jinli was threatened by Vlad to do something.
If she refused, Vlad would kill her companions, the group of players who stayed in the city lord's manor.
No matter what the matter was, the wedding of Zhen Jinli and Count Dracula had spread the message she wanted to convey, and that was enough.
After understanding this, all the players tacitly made the same decision.
The night Vlad left, they went on a killing spree.
Before that, they had to find a way to collect enough silver daggers.
***
Si Yao was not idle during this period. As a vampire hunter, he collected more than 30 silver daggers in the town.
If used sparingly, it should be enough for players to kill the vampires in the city lord's manor and leave the game safely.
It's safer than going to Bran Castle, which is full of dangerous traps, to assassinate Dracula's vampires.
Since Zhen Jinli and Si Yao, two high-level players wanted by the survival game, were not there, the uncle who was a criminal police officer became the backbone of the players.
"Everyone, please don't act rashly." The criminal police uncle comforted everyone.
"On the wedding day, when Vlad leaves the castle, that night will be the perfect time for us to assassinate the remaining vampires and leave this dungeon."
This is the opportunity Zhen Jinli created for them, and they must seize it.
As the guards of the city lord's manor, they actually knew where the silver dagger was.
But there were only about dozens of daggers there. If they assassinated the vampire guards in batches, they might succeed, but it would inevitably cause a commotion.
Once the other guards realize that they have attacked the vampire guards, they will definitely not let them go.
Even if the first group of players who assassinated the vampire guards successfully cleared the game, the remaining players would be captured by other guards and would find it difficult to find another opportunity to take action.
If they don't want to be caught, it means both sides will have to fight, and there may be bloodshed.
The detective uncle and other players briefly explained the current situation, and at the end he did not forget to remind everyone.
"Until we come up with a foolproof solution, it's best for everyone to hold off on any rash actions. Wait for my instructions and then move in unison. We'll try to get as many people as possible to leave the game simultaneously to minimize casualties."
Most of the players agreed, except for a few in the corner who looked a little gloomy.
Those people were the players who were bitten by wild wolves at the beginning of the game.
The day after tomorrow is the night of the full moon, and they can’t wait for the wedding in five days.
A certain middle-aged player said with some worry.
"But those of us who were bitten by werewolves will become werewolves in three days. Can't we take action in advance?"
The detective uncle didn't have any good ideas. He couldn't advance the plan and sacrifice the chances of survival of more than a hundred other players just for the three players who were bitten by the wild wolves.
Seeing that the detective uncle was silent, the auntie player probably knew what was going on.
They were abandoned.
Although the other players felt a little reluctant, they still tried to persuade the aunt player by reasoning with her.
"If we act prematurely, Vlad will notice us, and then we will all be in trouble."
The aunt player looked at the other players with a complicated expression, her eyes changed from bitter to desperate, and finally to terrifying.
She and the two players beside her looked at each other, and they all understood the strong desire to survive in each other's eyes.
They have to assassinate the vampires in advance.
Only in this way can they leave the game alive.
By the time they turn into werewolves, it will be too late.
As for whether other players would be killed after alerting the enemy, they no longer cared about that.
Even if it would alarm Vlad, they would have already left the game instance by then.
Since other players don't care about their lives, why should they care about the lives of other players?
Anyway, they are just players in the same game. Either they die or the other party dies.
Who doesn’t hope to be the one who survives?
***
At noon on the third day, several shrill screams rang out one after another in the city lord's manor.
Three vampire guards were assassinated.
At the same time, three guards who were originally vampire hunters disappeared.
When the players heard the screams of the vampires after being stabbed, their pupils trembled and their heartbeats suddenly accelerated.
Oh no, those players took action early!
