Chapter 613: Small Harbor
...About thirty minutes later, Ye Lan left the Blood Castle with Su Xiaguang and Xiaoyue.
In just a few dozen minutes of negotiation, Xia Manman, as the leader of the security team of Crescent Moon and Crescent Moon Guardians, led a team of elites from the Sunset Cult to surround them, accusing them of security issues and suspecting ulterior motives.
On the other hand, he wants to take over the investigation with an attitude of distrust.
But how dare the Vampire clan allow the other party to investigate unscrupulously in their own home? Especially since this is a third-floor bedroom, it has a lot to do with the Blood Ancestor.
Especially when they themselves don't know what happened.
Finally, after countless communications and urgent requests for instructions, the Sunset Cult and the Vampire Team established a joint investigation team, with Xia Manman as the top investigation leader.
Well, to be honest, Xia Manman's expression was also very strange at that time.
It’s quite cool to check yourself.
But similarly, Xia Manman, as the top person in charge and commander of the investigation team, can view and accept all relevant information, but similarly, the investigation inside the Blood Ancestor's room can only be investigated by the Blood Clan.
This seems to be related to many secrets of the Blood Ancestor, and it is a step that the Blood Clan cannot back down from.
When these frameworks were basically determined and it was unimaginable that there were any remaining worries, Yelan walked out of the Blood Castle with Su Xiaguang and Xiaoyue.
During this process, the vampires who met along the way showed hesitation and anxiety at all times, but in the end they did not stop him.
You can't mess with the distinguished guest, but you can't contact the blood ancestor.
We have already contacted you urgently about the matter just now, so it would be too much to contact us again in a short time.
Coupled with the attack in the Blood Ancestor's room, the distinguished guests were attacked, and the entire Blood Castle was now a complete mess from top to bottom.
The real elites are running around, and there is no one who can really make the decision. Asking for advice on this matter will just go nowhere.
Walking all the way out, I left the old castle and the Blood Castle, and set foot on this gloomy and bloody grassland again. The black castle was surrounded by a cloudy sky overhead, as if lightning might strike at any time.
While walking like this, Xiaoyue suddenly seemed to notice something, and she turned around to look behind her from time to time.
Behind, there was only the rustling sound of the wind, and then it became quiet again with the wind.
"Captain, its wisdom is growing too slowly. Is it really okay?"
Su Xiaguang said softly as she followed Yelan forward intently.
Yelan never looked back from beginning to end, nor did she remind Xiaoyue not to alert others.
He was about to let the people sent by the vampires to follow him know that he had discovered them, but Xiaoyue just happened to achieve this operation, otherwise it would be too obvious.
After Xiaoyue looked at her for a few times but said nothing, Ye Lan picked up Xiaoyue and suddenly quickened her pace, walking in a zigzag manner in the grassland and circling along the Blood Castle.
The Vampire stalker behind him kept his distance as usual, thinking he was concealed, and followed him all the way.
About ten minutes later, Ye Lan took a step towards the grass, and the crystal ball lit up, turning on psychological invisibility.
Uh-huh!
rustle!
Feeling that the pursuer had followed her into the grass, Ye Lan maintained her psychological invisibility and returned to the path she had taken before, swaggering out of the grassland.
"Uh...this is..."
It wasn't until he understood this strange grassland and completely got rid of his pursuers that Su Xiaguang asked in confusion.
"It just makes them realize that we have discovered them, so they think we are just trying to get rid of tracking."
"This way, we just wandered around in the grassland, so we won't be suspected."
Yelan said, pondering briefly:
"There's something wrong with this grassland, I'm still observing."
Su Xiaguang's face showed doubts.
"What's the problem?"
"It's hard to say." Ye Lan still shook his head: "But I have remembered the route and some special places... It would be great if there was a draftsman in the team. If there is a plan view of this scarlet grassland, I can You should be able to see it all.”
"And the secret here, I think, should be related to the mysterious creature that appeared in the room several times just now."
With that said, several people left the bloody grassland.
Passing through the crowded market, we walked all the way towards the small port.
The surrounding scene became more and more dilapidated, and the crowd gradually thinned out.
It seems that this was once a very prosperous place.
Previously, people from the Vampire Tribe briefly described the urban location distribution of Scarlet City. This should be a slum area equivalent to a city, filled with illegitimate children, small power groups, and various black markets... To put it simply, It's a mixed bag.
Soon, Ye Lan saw the abandoned port, the small port in the east of Scarlet City.
There is also a very shabby room here, which should be the former ticket hall or waiting area. But now the building looks as if it had been in a war zone, plowed through by shells.
Only two floors remained, and half of the second floor collapsed.
Ye Lan looked at the location of the port on the shore again, and there were no ships there anymore.
Even the water level was much lower, and there was a shoal behind the ruins on the ground.
Not finding anything special, Ye Lan walked to the building.
This is the only goal here.
puff.
Ye Lan patted the door. There was dust falling on it. It looked like no one had been here for a long time.
Crunch.
Another unpleasant sound came, and the whole building trembled slightly, as if it was about to fall apart.
After observing the situation inside, Ye Lan conducted a simple investigation.
There were broken tables and chairs, debris everywhere, insects crawling around from time to time, and the smell of dust and sawdust filled the air.
Creak.
Ye Lan moved forward, two "people" and one "rabbit" walked in the darkness, and the footsteps were clear for everyone to hear.
The sound was unpleasant, as if the building was about to fall apart.
Ye Lan frowned, there were almost no well-preserved rooms on the entire first floor.
The only one was on the side of the front desk, which looked like the room of the dispatch room before.
Walking all the way there, Ye Lan suddenly stopped at the front desk.
His eyes stayed on the desk of the front desk, and Ye Lan narrowed his eyes.
Finally found something different.
Picking it up gently, Ye Lan was quite relieved that it didn't break into ash directly.
It was a book.
Ye Lan frowned as he flipped the book open gently.
It was like flipping open a thick book, and he turned over many pages that were stuck together.
Ye Lan tried to open it, but failed. So he frowned and flipped down.
"Sail record? Or route record."
It records every ship that departed from Dongxiaogang.
The handwriting on it was very old, and the earliest one seemed to be more than ten years ago, which was very consistent with the time when the building was abandoned here.
After a quick look, Ye Lan did not find any information he wanted, so he closed it and opened the first page again.
Ye Lan squinted his eyes.
This thick stack seemed to be of very different quality from the paper behind it.
There is a problem here! Has it been specially treated?
Squinting his eyes, Ye Lan reached into his pocket and took out a shiny coin.
Then, Ye Lan's spiritual energy spread among the coin and the book, and he shouted softly:
"Appraise the treasure!"
