Chapter 210 Don't scare me!
If it weren't for the considerable energy stored within the Thunder Dragon Armguard, which allowed him to unleash the Silent Thunder Death Ray and catch the middle-aged man off guard, and if the man hadn't wanted to provoke the powerful forces of the Magic City or alert the Hunter King of the Hunter Alliance, he would have been in serious trouble. The middle-aged man's strength was such that he wasn't afraid of ordinary high-level mages, but if he had provoked the Hunter King or a major power in the Magic City, he would have been severely injured, if not killed.
As Jiang Han was taking Lingling home, at the girls' high school where Liu Ru studied, Zhao Manyan and Liu Ru encountered a man wearing a blood-red trench coat in the woods. The man said in a hoarse voice, "Liu Ru, we meet again."
"You're the vampire who killed Sister Liu Ru, aren't you?" Zhao Manyan asked coldly.
"What, you want revenge on me?" the man sneered.
"Radiant Blindness!!" Zhao Manyan stopped wasting words with the man and a golden light shone from his hand, directly blinding the vampire. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Zhao Manyan said to Liu Ru, "You go back to the dormitory first. I'll take care of this guy."
"Thank you." Liu Ru said thank you and turned to leave, fleeing towards the dormitory building.
After Liu Ru left, Zhao Manyan began to confront the vampire. The vampire's eyes recovered, but it did not continue to fight Zhao Manyan. Instead, it turned around and fled into the distance. Zhao Manyan had only chased after it for a short while when he heard Liu Ru's cry of pain.
"Oh no, this is a diversionary tactic." Zhao Manyan stopped and ran in the direction Liu Ru had gone.
When Zhao Manyan found "Liu Ru", she was already lying on the ground, her skin extremely pale and her body somewhat shriveled. The two shocking blood holes on her neck were so glaring. Zhao Manyan looked at "Liu Ru" lying on the ground with a face full of regret and annoyance. He never expected that he would fall for the trick of luring the tiger away from the mountain.
After taking off his coat and covering Liu Ru with it, he dialed Jiang Han's number and said with a bitter expression, "Jiang Han, something's happened. You and Mo Fan need to come to the girls' high school."
"What happened? Did you mess with Liu Ru?" Jiang Han's teasing voice came from the phone.
"No, on our way back, Liu Ru and I fell into her trap. She's already been murdered," Zhao Manyan said in a low voice.
"Wait here, I'll be right there," Jiang Han said hurriedly.
When Jiang Han arrived at the woods near the girls' high school, he saw Liu Ru's body lying on the ground. Zhao Manyan saw Jiang Han approaching and said with a bitter expression, "I'm sorry, I didn't protect her well. Also, should we notify the higher-ups of the Hunter Alliance?"
Jiang Han ignored Zhao Manyan and squatted down to examine 'Liu Ru's' corpse, saying indifferently, "It's useless. To get the Hunter Alliance to issue a wanted notice and bounty, we need to provide direct evidence that the vampire committed the crime. You saw for yourself how big those two bloody holes on 'Liu Ru's' neck are; they're almost like they were made by a sharp weapon. Most importantly, she's not Liu Ru, but Liu Ru's older sister, Liu Xian."
"Not Liu Ru?" Zhao Manyan looked at Jiang Han with a puzzled expression, not understanding what Jiang Han meant.
You know, he had been following Liu Ru all afternoon. As for Liu Ru's sister, Liu Xian, she had already been sucked to death by the vampire. But Jiang Han was saying that the one on the ground was Liu Xian. Could it be that he had been with Liu Xian all day? Thinking of this, Zhao Manyan couldn't help but shudder.
"Jiang Han, don't scare me! I'm easily frightened. Is this really Liu Xian?" Zhao Manyan whispered, hiding behind Jiang Han.
Jiang Han reached out and pulled Zhao Manyan out from behind him, saying calmly, "Feel the temperature of her arm. If it were Liu Ru, her body would definitely have some residual warmth, instead of being so cold and bone-chilling. As for why Liu Xian, who was cremated long ago, would appear here, you'll have to ask that vampire."
"Hey, I almost forgot, her body was indeed as cold as ice," Zhao Manyan said.
"We're almost there to find that vampire," Jiang said coldly.
After saying that, Jiang Han told Lingling about the matter. Combining Lingling's previous suspicions, the two focused their attention on the police station's forensic doctor, because only the forensic doctor could issue a complete death certificate and documents after determining that Liu Xian had suffered a sudden heart attack. Only the forensic doctor could bring Liu Xian's body, which had originally been reported for cremation, here.
After identifying the specific target, Jiang Han instructed Mo Fan and Zhao Manyan to take Lingling to pursue Nie Dong from the police station, while he went directly to the Northern Club. In his hazy memory, Liu Ru had been imprisoned by Nie Dong in the club's wine cellar. As for why he didn't let Mo Fan and the others go to the club, it was mainly because the middle-aged man he had previously defeated was at the Northern Club.
After Jiang Han rode the undead giant lizard pseudo-dragon to the skies above the Northern Club, the enormous size of the undead giant lizard pseudo-dragon terrified many of the elegant young men and women in the club, causing them to scream and howl in fear. The middle-aged man who had been driven back by Jiang Han, upon seeing that it was Jiang Han, said with a gloomy expression, "Kid, don't push your luck."
"Get lost. I don't have time to argue with you. I'm here to find someone," Jiang Han said coldly, standing atop the undead giant lizard pseudo-dragon.
"You're looking for someone at my Northern Club? Who are you looking for?" the middle-aged man asked coldly.
"Is there someone in your family named Nie Dong? Don't tell me you don't know what he did. If you want the higher-ups of the Hunter's Alliance to come after you, then keep blocking my way," Jiang Han said indifferently.
The middle-aged man looked at Jiang Han standing on the back of the undead giant lizard pseudo-dragon, remained silent for a long time, and then stepped aside. He knew who Jiang Han had come to see this time, because not long after he returned, he encountered a family member who had been burned by the Radiance. Under his questioning, he also learned about Nie Dong's actions. Originally, the middle-aged man wanted to turn a blind eye and let it pass. After Nie Dong's ritual was completed, his family would not only not alarm the Hunter Alliance, but also have multiple members.
After the middle-aged man made way, Jiang Han jumped off the back of the undead giant lizard pseudo-dragon and was led by two waiters to the cellar inside the club. The cellar was filled with rows and rows of wine racks, many of which were empty, but some of the more expensive-looking red wines were wiped clean and not a speck of dust could be seen.
The wine cellar was clean and quiet. Jiang Han could vaguely hear a rhythmic ticking sound, which completely blocked out the noisy bar noise in the hall above. After walking a few steps in the dark wine cellar, Jiang Han saw a round table in the very center of the wine cellar. The table was semi-openwork, and a slender and exquisite girl was bound there and undergoing some kind of ancient sacrificial ritual.
The girl was none other than Liu Ru, whom Nie Dong had taken away using a diversionary tactic. There were cut marks on her wrists, and the dripping sound just heard was the sound of blood dripping from Liu Ru's artery onto the ground.
After Liu Ru's blood fell to the ground, it flowed along the grooves that had been carved beforehand, forming a very strange pattern. As more and more of Liu Ru's blood flowed out, Jiang Han vaguely felt more and more evil energy surging from that eerie blood pattern. That evil energy frantically drilled into Liu Ru's body, constantly transforming her body. The pained Liu Ru slightly opened her red lips, and you could see her tiger teeth growing at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Upon hearing the footsteps, Liu Ru felt nothing but disgust. The only person who could have come here was that vampire, Nie Dong. If it weren't for the stuff stuffed in her mouth preventing her from biting her tongue to commit suicide, she would have done it long ago. Instead, she was trapped here, clearly feeling her blood transforming into strange blood within the eerie blood diagram before returning to her body.
Liu Ru knew that after this sacrificial ceremony ended, her final result would be to become a vampire like Nie Dong.
