Chapter 361 19. Annan’s Sacrifice
This tavern has no goals that Suni described.
There are many charming women, but there are no women dressed as mercenaries.
Annan and Alice sat in the pub for a while, killing time while discussing the plot of "Annan Potter and the Philosopher's Stone". And dozens of minutes passed, and nothing happened.
Did they choose the wrong pub?
But those mercenaries who go upstairs rubbing the girls' buttocks, the guests who hide in corners and weave secret conspiracies, the pickpockets who stare maliciously at the guests' wallets... this place should actually lower the quality of the local tavern by a few percentage points.
Just as I was thinking this, a pungent smell of cheap perfume came over me along with a poor figure - otherwise, why are there so few fabrics in the clothes?
“Hi, sweetheart, can I buy you a drink?”
She sat across from Annan, and the fragrance and ambiguous light and shadow that hit her face inspired people’s inner desires— —
“I’m not old enough to drink yet.” But Annan was unmoved.
"Have a glass of juice." The woman waved to the counter again.
She was not the person they were looking for, Annan said euphemistically: "I like someone who is more mature."
There was a dull laughter all around.
The guests have been observing Annan and Alice, and words like the Red Devil, eternal life, and guardian spells occasionally floated up, which made them feel inexplicably powerful.
The ugly-looking woman left, and a man as thin as a monkey sat down.
"To a mature woman." He joked, picking up the wine glass.
Annan kept quiet and let the man tell his purpose.
"What news do you want?"
"We just came to visit the tavern." Annan said.
"Forget it, who would come to the tavern with a female companion?" Annan's lies could not deceive the man, "I am Lem, people here call me slime, the news from Sltovis There is nothing we don’t know.”
"We——"
"You can't help with the information we want." Annan interrupted Alice and looked at Lem seriously: "I'm looking for a blank development order, 伱Can it be done?”
“You must be kidding...”
Only the Imperial Military Department has the authority to issue the development order, and it has been thirty-four years since the last development order. ...but he could see that this was the truth.
Today’s young people are really bloated
Rhyme muttered and left.
Alice withdrew her gaze: "Why don't you ask directly, he should have news about vampires."
"Will the guy who wanders in the gray zone side with us or the gray zone? "
"Money."
"Yeah, so he will eat us first, then eat them."
"But he was right about one thing. The two of us don't look like guests at all. "So you go back first and I'll stay here. "
Alice said nothing, staring at Annan.
Annan's drooping black eyes showed a heavy expression: "Everything is for Xana..."
"'You are leaving The closer the person you admire is, the less aura he has. I couldn't understand this sentence before. "Alice gave Annan a ring.
Annan pretended not to understand: "What about you? ”
Alice raised her hand. There was a magic ring on her index finger.
Annan thought jealously that if he makes a magic video in the future, the script will ask Alice to write the essay "My Epic Father".
"Leave it to you." Alice said, walking out of the tavern and disappearing behind the closed door.
Annan picked up the juice and walked towards the naked woman he had chatted with earlier.
Zhiya——
The door of the tavern was pushed open again behind him. Annan naturally changed direction and came to the counter, glancing at the door from the corner of his eye.
Alice did not go and return. A gloomy man approached the tavern. Where he passed, the drinkers frowned. And when he came to the counter, Annan smelled the faint smell of blood and a familiar smell from this guy.
Vampire?
But it was not the one that captured Xana and the others. Annan continued to observe, and just as Annan smelled his "vampire smell", the vampire also smelled Annan's "warlock smell".
"Friend, you..."
"I don't want to listen to you," Annan interrupted him directly: "I am only interested in female vampires."
"We will have a super show at midnight. Do you want to join this exciting party? "
"My taste is quite special." Before Annan could introduce the keywords such as "mercenary leather armor" and "coquettish", the vampire showed an expression that all men would understand:
"I understand, I understand. Grandmothers, granddaughters, nieces, sisters, proud-looking ladies, saints under house arrest, and those who are proficient in transfiguration..."
Annan held the wine glass to cover up his inner shock, as if a door to a new world was opening to him.
"Lead the way."
The vampire who had not yet made a hot stool secretly led Annan out of the tavern and into the alley, skillfully dodging the patrolling guards outside the street.
The vampire who was stunned by the surprise didn't pay attention at all, and a shadow deeper than darkness quietly enveloped it.
In the dark alley, the sound of tides and the flashing light of blood disappeared momentarily, and then fell into eternal silence.
The vampire who failed to escape realized that he had become prey and began to growl: "Who do you belong to? The city hall, the mercenaries, the church? You can't do this!"
"Why can't I do this? ? "There are two large elements standing behind Annan.
“You don’t obey the rules!”
“Why don’t I obey the rules?”
“We make you happy, and in return we only squeeze some blood, and at most we make you Weak for a few days. You won’t die, so you can’t kill us either!”
Annan actually felt that what he said made sense, and he believed half of it. There were not many vampires who could be reasonable.
"I didn't want to kill you, I just wanted to inquire about something." Annan said.
The vampire relaxed a little after hearing this, and even bargained: "We also do intelligence. For the sake of your control of me, I can give you a 50% discount."
"I'll give you one point. I don’t plan to give out the money.”
The vampire also said in principle: “I won’t say anything either.”
"Okay, say it again." Annan said.
"I won't say anything either!" The vampire puffed up his chest with dignity.
Annan suspected that this vampire was from the Chaos camp.
“Previous sentence.”
“50% off?”
"One more sentence."
"We make you happy, and you won't die, so you can't kill us?"
Annan pulled out his personal dagger: "I changed my mind. "
"You can't-"
"I can. I'm a chaotic evil warlock who made a contract with the devil, worked with the rat people, lived with the blue dragon, and now I just kill one. Just an insignificant vampire." The sharp dagger got closer and closer to the vampire's neck.
"Your companions dare not seek revenge from me. They will only erect a grave and write on your tombstone 'It defended the worthless rules with its life'."
"Okay, I say! What do you want to know!”
The dagger stabbed at the vampire’s skin stopped.
“One of my classmates was kidnapped by you in the Black Gold Tavern last night. Where is she?”
“This is not what we did!”
Unexpectedly, the vampire said that it had nothing to do with them, and then told Anansi Ertuovis the rules of the gray area.
