Chapter 470 Despicable Outsider
"Good boy, don't play with the spear."
"Why?"
In the city of Savvis, inside the survivor shelter built around the second portal of the Senn dungeon.
Isa took the wooden spear from the child and said seriously:
"The weapons that have left their names in history are legendary figures with spears, and most of them didn't end well."
"Oh oh." The child nodded in confusion, looked at the spear with fear in his eyes, ran over, picked up a wooden meat saw and started swinging it for exercise.
Feeling that she had successfully saved a child who had gone astray, Isa couldn't help but smile with pride.
This shelter built around the portal has the largest number of people, with about forty survivors living there. There are four similar shelters in the fishing port area, with a total of over a hundred survivors. These are the last living people in the fishing port area.
The distances between the various shelters are not too far, and there are at least small paths for quick commuting between them, which will facilitate quick support if one side encounters a problem.
The people in the shelter still have a sense of unreality. They didn't expect that a group of hunters would suddenly appear and save them from the hellish days. They even cleared out the entire fishing port area. Now some people in the shelter will murmur to themselves: "Is this a dream?"
"Brother, you're back. How's the situation?" Isa heard footsteps and turned to look at Fann.
What came back was a group of hunters, their bodies soaked in blood and emitting a murderous aura. They looked like super killers. Fortunately, the people present were already used to seeing them dressed like this, and some even went to prepare hot water to welcome the hunters.
There are still some survivors who know some daily magic, and some who know one or two combat skills, but their levels are generally not very high.
For some reason, up to now, I haven’t seen even one person with rich combat experience among the survivors, whether they are adventurers, soldiers or mercenaries.
“It’s not a good situation in the Pearl District, but we’ve figured it out.”
Fann sat down on the spot, relaxed his tired body, and said:
"The dungeon will undoubtedly attract parasites. Nine out of ten monsters that enter the dungeon cannot get out. If we can make good use of this, the progress of cleaning up the city will be greatly accelerated. Unfortunately, the portal does not seem to be attractive enough to the parasites in the other two districts. It seems that only the parasites close to the Pearl District are attracted by the portal."
Isa immediately understood what her brother was thinking, so she said:
"Should we actively lure the monsters from the other two districts here?"
"That's right," Fann thought it was great to have such a smart sister. "Isa, if it were you, you should be able to design a way to lure the parasites to the portal based on the layout of the city, right?"
"It should be possible if we have a city layout map." Isa looked eager to try.
Fan En smiled and took out a stack of well-protected blueprints. "On our way back, we broke into the City Lord's Mansion and happened to find this."
"Very good!"
The matter was settled. Isa would quickly find several roads that could attract more parasites to the dungeon portal with the greatest efficiency, and design various mechanisms along the way to help attract the parasites. If necessary, she could even let the hunters act as human bait.
But Isa did not intend to let the hunters take risks. She believed in her ability to design mechanisms and took on the task alone.
There are still many things to consider, such as clearing the people around the portal to prevent them from being affected, and there will definitely be a lot of parasites attracted in the early stage, which will make it inconvenient to go out, so we must search for enough supplies, etc.
Isa and Vann have become leaders, and the first group of hunters have the highest combat power, so none of the survivors will disobey them.
Having said that, after the number of people increased, they discovered that although everyone who entered the dungeon would undergo blood therapy, the improvement in each person's strength was not comparable. Some people's strength was only improved a little bit after the blood therapy, and they could not hunt alone without the help of others.
The reason is whether or not they have passed the test of animality. The Red people are tenacious, but some people cannot resist the animality test brought by the blood therapy at the beginning. Such people will become crazy within a few days, and it will take a few days to recover. Although they can also gain resistance to parasites, the improvement in strength is minimal.
Among the more than one hundred survivors, about half were able to successfully pass the animal test. After further screening, only about forty people were able to work as hunters and hunt outside. Human resources were actually quite tight.
Moreover, you can't be out hunting parasites all day long, you still have to go back to the dungeon to train your strength. Without strength, nothing can be done. Some people think that the dungeon should be the main focus now.
As for Vann, he wanted to take both into account.
"I'm going to the dungeon first. If the organization has any ideas or needs anything, remember to tell me."
"Don't you want to take a shower? Your clothes are all smelly." Isa frowned, wondering if her brother had been working too hard recently, to the point where he felt like he was going to die suddenly.
"I'll just go find the messenger and fix my clothes."
Those "cute" messengers in the Hunter's Dream will repair weapons and equipment, and also do some cleaning, which can solve the chores of some troublesome survivors.
Watching him leave, Isa sighed and said to herself:
"Don't be too tired."
Not long after, Yanan.
"Dr. Yusefka, here I come again."
".Here, my blood."
"Thanks."
At the Yusefka Clinic, Fann politely took a blood collection bottle full of blood from the gap in the door and window, and did not forget to say thank you before leaving.
There were several other hunters beside him, and even the old woman Bell was there, queuing up to get the blood bottle from Yusefka.
Is it true that this person will not die from anemia?
"If you come across someone still alive, you can ask them to come to my clinic. It's safe here," said Dr. Yusefka. She always said this.
This female doctor named Yusefka was also an afterimage. Vann didn't notice her at first until he was wandering around the clinic.
The other party seemed to be very wary of the hunter and was unwilling to let him enter the room behind him, saying that it was to protect the patient's safety. Vann expressed his understanding of this.
Moreover, Yusefka would provide him with blood bottles filled with his own blood from time to time.
This item, called Yusefka's Blood Bottle, can restore vitality faster and with better quality than ordinary blood bottles after use. Therefore, it is widely loved by hunters. After entering the dungeon, they will basically come to her to ask for a bottle.
"Dr. Yusefka is such a good man."
His sigh was echoed by the crowd, and everyone walked out of the clinic and into Yanan, who was becoming increasingly familiar to them.
In a short period of time, the hunters have summarized a preliminary and fastest route to obtain Blood Echo, which includes famous attractions such as bonfire parties, as well as stronger monsters such as werewolves, brick brothers, and axe brothers. Currently, only Vann can solo this route, and the probability of failure is not low.
Currently he is steadily moving towards level 40.
However, before entering this route, he knocked on the door of a lighted house nearby with a sly smile on his face, and everyone showed helpless expressions when they saw this.
"I am tired of your rude outsiders' noise. The current chaos in Yharnam is all caused by you!"
An old lady's angry voice came from behind the door. However, instead of getting angry after being scolded, Fann became happy. He knocked on the door twice more, causing the old lady to curse even more angrily before running away.
Moving along the planned route, Vann fought the monsters seriously. However, whenever he saw a house with lights on, he always showed an expression of "something fun is going to happen" and went over to knock on the door.
There are always people in the house with lights on. However, when faced with a hunter like him, the reactions of the people in the house are basically the same:
"Get lost! Who would open the door for a stranger like you on hunting night? Get lost now!"
"You are locked out on the night of the hunt. Oh, you are so unlucky. Hehe, so unlucky."
"You despicable stranger, you want to trick me into opening the door? How despicable!"
The afterimages of these Yharnam residents treated Vann even worse than the unruly people did when they saw the witcher.
After gradually getting familiar with Yanan, Fann and his friends discovered that there were actually quite a lot of normal people in the city of Yanan, and every house with lights on had someone in it.
It’s a pity that these houses seem to be protected by some force, and they can’t get in even if they use violence.
The Yharnam people in the house had such bad attitudes that they wished these "outsiders" would die quickly, and it was even more impossible for them to open the door on their own initiative. If they knocked on the door, they would either be cursed or ridiculed.
Now Vann finally understood why Gilbert complained about the Yharnam people's hospitality.
At first, people would get angry when being scolded, but gradually, there started to be people like Vann who would deliberately knock on doors to disturb the Yharnam people from having fun. This was also a way to release stress.
He even discovered that as long as he lured the monsters near the houses of the Yharnam people, he could hear the screaming and scratching of the people inside, which really made people want to laugh out loud.
"Alas, Brother Vann was obviously not this kind of person before," Bell's old face showed a sigh of regret, "The dungeon really changes a person. Fortunately, I have become indifferent to these things."
Someone heard what she said, suddenly pointed to the side and shouted, "Ms. Bell, there is a monster over there!"
"Kill! Where is it? Where is it? I'm going to stab it to death!"
In an instant, Belle turned into a scary grandma and jumped up, waving the hunter's stick in her hand vigorously.
"."Everyone fell silent when they saw her like this.
To be honest, the one who has changed the most is you, old lady.
"How long do you want to play around, Mr. Vann? Our target this time should be the cemetery, right?"
After exploring Yharnam, the map of the city became clearer, including a cemetery that no one had ever set foot on.
Just by standing outside, one could hear the roars of wild beasts and the horrific sounds of flesh being cut coming from the cemetery. It felt like if one entered, one would definitely encounter a formidable enemy, so people did not dare to go in rashly, and only started exploring after Vann came in.
Not long after, having had enough fun, Vann finally took everyone to the cemetery. It seemed that his stress was fully relieved.
The cemetery is quite far from the center of Yharnam, and there are many dangers on the road. The closer to the cemetery, the less people go there. Therefore, there is insufficient intelligence and the probability of encountering danger is greater. The consumption of supplies is gradually increasing, and people's faces are becoming serious.
The cemetery was right in front of them, but at this moment, people suddenly discovered something.
"Look, there's another house with a light on."
Vann wiped the monster blood that splashed on his face, smiled, and said, "There are still Yharnam people in a place like this. Let's rest here for a while and prepare for the battle. I will also go and relax."
Everyone shook their heads helplessly and left him alone.
Is the person in the room this time a man or a woman? Is he cursing or mocking? What kind of monster should I attract to scare him later?
While thinking about it in his mind, he knocked on the door and asked, "Is anyone there?"
However, the reality was not quite what he had imagined. A timid voice of a little girl came from behind the door.
"Hey, are you a hunter? I don't recognize your voice, but I am familiar with this smell, it is the smell of a hunter."
Fann didn't expect to receive such a question. He blinked and replied, "Yes."
Who would be familiar with the scent of a hunter?
"If you are a hunter, can you help me find my mother?"
