Under the lights, Dave killed his wife and daughter.
Vampire Dave tore open vampire Dani's throat, then with one hand... crushed his daughter's head.
Undoubtedly, all of this was arranged by Wen Xishu.
The crowd was in shock, and only after confirming the three vampires were dead did they realize this was the handiwork of Wen Xishu.
"You... are really dependable," said Bosjü.
His ability is to make the target lose a sense of danger, and of course, his skills are top-notch. But compared to vampires, there's still a gap.
The Cannon was actually ready to fire, but he couldn't even shine a flashlight on the opponent, so aiming at the vampire must be difficult.
The real output, on the other hand, came from Canon, who acted as bait and trapped Dave with poisoned blood; otherwise, Wen Xishu might not have even been able to see the target, much less kill him.
The several people were all silent.
Wen Xishu said:
"Should we continue? The opponent seems like an ordinary role among subordinate blood servants. Undoubtedly, at night... we are no match for them."
"The disparity in strength is rather significant."
"I tried to get him to tell me Cain's real name, but he doesn't know."
Only then did the crowd realize.
It turns out Dave's earlier abnormal behavior, shouting 'I don't know, I can't find it...' was all orchestrated by Wen Xishu.
Wen Xishu also confirmed one thing through Dave's reaction—the seven-color feather pen can control the target to do various things... but it absolutely cannot accomplish things beyond the target's comprehension.
Just like getting someone to solve a math problem before dying, that is absolutely unattainable.
"He doesn't know Cain, neither name nor location, maybe he wasn't even transformed by Cain personally. At least two levels below Cain."
Wen Xishu's words weren't too direct, but the assassins were very clear...
"Cain will only be harder to deal with than these vampires... In the end, we can't even cross the moat in front of the Savior's castle?"
Bosjü found it hard to believe, the ambitious determination to assassinate Cain was greatly discouraged.
And at this time, Nightraider reminded:
"If we want to retreat... now is the time, if we want to pull back, while the night isn't so dark yet, we still have a chance."
"These things' combat power at night, perhaps even the monsters at the end times couldn't handle."
"I've realized it, we... are really insignificant."
Nightraider's words clearly made everyone a bit depressed.
Everyone maintained silence, but also tacitly left the place.
...
...
Outside Crystal City, the sky dimmed further. Although it's not yet nighttime, you can tell...
This city is slowly waking up.
As Wen Xishu and the others prepared to leave, they no longer felt the city was just ominously dead.
Now the city is still eerie, but the atmosphere of death has reached its peak... and has become somewhat lively.
Those crimson eyes, pairs of them were glued to the windows on both sides of the street.
On the dim-looking streets, Wen Xishu and the others didn't even need to look closely to feel the surrounding crimson.
These pupils-sized red dots appearing in the darkness, so numerous it could trigger trypophobia.
Night is approaching, some of them have woken up early.
In fact, Wen Xishu and the others soon heard the creaking sound of doors being pushed open.
Canon, at this moment, felt numerous breaths locking onto him.
He immediately became alert.
Nightraider said:
"They're coming for you, Canon!"
Canon quickly realized what's going on.
On one hand, the sky was darkening, vampires are becoming active, on the other hand... Canon was bitten.
The wound opened by vampire Dave, exposed to the air, the smell of that blood, normal people couldn't smell... but vampires could.
Especially vampires starved to the extreme.
Countless crimson eyes pressed against the windows, and many bold vampires opened the windows, opened the doors...
This moment felt a bit despairing for everyone.
A single vampire, in absolute darkness, might be comparable to the fiercest of monsters, able to kill as if teleporting.
Facing one vampire, they already realized the gap.
But now, thousands... even hundreds of thousands of vampires, were waking up.
The dead silence was completely shattered.
Wen Xishu could hear, many, many, countless vampires, the beast-like low growls from their throats.
They want blood, they want slaughter.
Wen Xishu and the others could escape, but definitely not far. Wen Xishu was certain that door was gone... without the door, relying solely on their legs, it's practically impossible to escape the hunting range of vampires who can almost blend into the night before nightfall.
"Fight, we're not running."
Standing on the street of Crystal City, Wen Xishu suddenly said.
Cannon immediately said:
"I know you're the ultimate killing king... your strength far surpasses ours, but facing this scale, and vampires exceedingly strong individually, even if you could hypnotize, you wouldn't be quick enough!"
Wen Xishu was actually already capable of "recruiting teammates".
When one vampire after another stuck to the window, revealing their heads, or when they opened the doors no longer hiding in the shadows...
Their names above their heads, were collected in Wen Xishu's eyes.
"As long as we see Cain, we can win. If we retreat now, then everything today will become your obsession."
The feathered pen in Wen Xishu's hand was furiously scribbling.
