An Ordinary Fantasy Adventure in the Continent of Faerun

Chapter 500 The Final Adjustment of the Derivatives

Time can dilute all pain, unless the wound will open from time to time. After dozens or hundreds of years, many of these people may not even remember the appearance and name of Asdalen and others, but they all know Kazador, because he is the demon who cuts open their old wounds from time to time.

Kazador's torture and ridicule made them unbearable. Their hatred for Kazador was so pure that after seeing Kazador's miserable end, the anger in their hearts was finally calmed down to a certain extent, and they finally had the energy to listen to Noshier's promise to them.

And they knew that they might start a new life and get out of this situation worse than death. For a moment, they even felt that even the terrifying hunger that tormented them for hundreds of years was no longer unbearable. For the future promised by Noshier, they were willing to temporarily put down their temper and be more patient.

Anyway, they have endured for hundreds of years, and they will not collapse in the last few days. As for how to vent their hatred for Asdalen and others? ...It doesn't matter, they have plenty of time anyway.

The only benefit of becoming a vampire is that their originally short life span becomes long, even so long that they can't see the end, and in such a long time, they will have enough time to consider a series of related matters.

As for what the final result will be between them? After being rescued, will they choose revenge or forgiveness? This is not something that Noshier can decide.

After all, he has no right to make decisions on behalf of these victims. Although he has been paying attention to the progress in this regard, this kind of thing is not something he can intervene in, because he is just an outsider. If an outsider rashly intervenes in the final outcome of such a complicated event, it will only lead the situation to a more chaotic point in the end.

He can only hope that Asdaren and others can make good use of their good eloquence during this period, try their best to persuade them, and strive for a good result. However, having said that, it is impossible to ignore it completely. He must ensure that the situation will not slide in the worst direction, and when this sign is discovered, it must be nipped in the bud even if it is not necessary to use force.

Therefore, whenever Noshier was free, he would immediately observe whether the derivatives had any overreactions. Fortunately, judging from the current situation, they were developing well. Although there were still occasional frictions, most of them showed patience and restraint, which made Noshier feel more at ease to carry out the task of collecting blood.

This collection took a full seven days. In the first three days, Noshier visited several slaughterhouses in the outer city and collected blood that could fill 60 huge wooden barrels in his own name.

This amount was definitely not small, but compared with nearly 7,000 derivatives, it was still a drop in the bucket and could not fill the stomachs of all of them. It was not until the fourth day that everything finally ushered in a turnaround.

That day, a dazzling lighthouse suddenly lit up on the gray port that was about to be closed. Noshier learned about it at the first time. He also knew what it meant. It meant that his wait was not in vain. The sea hunting fleet returned, and like in previous years, they successfully hunted a powerful sea monster, a giant dragon turtle that was more than 20 meters long and wide, could spit hot steam, and to some extent even had very rich dragon blood.

When the fleet hooked the dead head of the dragon turtle with the hook of the giant bed crossbow and pulled the monster to the side of the port, the whole Baldur's Gate was boiling because of this. People thought it was a good start, and the three armed merchant ships of the Otak Chamber of Commerce, the Sea Razor, the Breaker, and the Bird, became famous because of this.

Their rich results this time will bring them more abundant rewards in the coming year, but for Noshier, it only means that he no longer has to worry about how to feed the derivative body.

The dragon turtle is a super-large dragon monster. The blood in its body has very powerful magic, so it is also very valuable. For creatures like vampires, sucking the blood of powerful creatures is an incomparable enjoyment for them. Even if they only suck a small mouthful of the dragon turtle's blood, they can directly feed a hungry derivative.

But this also means that the blood of the dragon turtle is very precious. Although the captains immediately started to collect the blood that flowed into the sea as much as possible after killing this sea monster, even if the captains drained all the blood in the sea monster, they only collected less than 20 barrels in the end, and the price of each barrel was as high as thousands of gold coins.

This is very expensive, very expensive, but for Nosir, who has completely become financially free, he can still afford this cost. He spent a lot of money to buy a full five barrels of dragon turtle blood. Nosir estimated that this was enough to feed those derivatives, and this was indeed the case.

These five barrels of dragon turtle blood were enough to feed 3,000 derivatives directly. In order to make the migration smoother, Noshil deliberately chose to use this magical blood to feed those derivatives with higher obedience, more stable mentality, and more rationality, while those who were more irritable only used ordinary livestock blood.

This is to prevent possible riots. The magical blood can make the derivatives more powerful, but if this power appears on the rioters, it will be more trouble than gain. So again, Noshier does not want these back-up plans to be used, but he cannot help but make these preparations.

Fortunately, no derivatives expressed dissatisfaction with this unfair distribution. First, those who dared to jump at this time had been beaten by Noshier in advance. Yes, that's right. Although he did say before that he would not care about the grudges between these derivatives and Asdalen, if they dared to jump on his face to make trouble, Noshier would definitely not indulge them.

Second, for these derivatives who have been hungry for who knows how many years, having something to eat is already very good. After so many years, this is the first time they have satisfied their inner hunger, gotten rid of the crazy desire for blood, and experienced the feeling of being full for the first time.

This feeling alone was wonderful enough to bring them back to their senses from hunger and to carry out the plan more properly. However, in the process, Noshil discovered that many derivatives did not calm down after drinking the blood. Instead, they became more violent and more eager for the next meal.
