The super lord of the island

Chapter 268 267. Camos Manor, Blood Tribe

Da da da…

The flying hooves of horses galloped along the country road, and the woods on both sides passed by, causing waves.

Since Jialan joined, the Demonic Snake Adventure Group successfully obtained this special C-level hidden mission and also signed a series of confidentiality agreements.

Of course, none of this matters as long as you get paid.

After receiving the mission scroll, the group leader Sonny immediately rented a two-passenger carriage and led everyone straight to the destination.

There were five people sitting in the swaying car, and the fire warrior Pavin was driving the car outside.

Sonny took out the mission scroll, spread it out in front of everyone, and said in a deep voice: "The employer who issued the mission is Joachim, the famous manor owner of Diamond Island. According to conservative estimates, he owns more than 63 acres of farmland under his own name. There are [-] manors scattered across the island, which can be said to be extremely wealthy."

"The content of this mission is related to a large manor located near the middle section of the Camos River."

"Since the spring of this year, farmers have been missing mysteriously in the manor one after another. No one is seen alive or dead. As of last week, 23 people have been missing. In the past few days without news, there must be more More people are missing.”

"Is it a monster?" Maeve speculated.

"Definitely not." Sonny shook his head, "If it was done by a monster, it would definitely leave traces. Besides, it is impossible for high-level monsters to appear on Diamond Island, which is now fully developed.

In addition, among the missing people are the guards built by the manor. Although they are only at the apprentice level, they are extraordinary people after all. It is still very difficult to deal with them silently and make the corpses disappear without a trace. "

"Is there any other information?" Jialan, who was silent, spoke.

"Well…"

Sonny flipped through the scroll and said casually: "The current person in charge of the manor is Joachim's grandson George. He is a very potential extraordinary person. He is currently studying in the warrior department at the Iron Sword Academy in Lungozli City. The specific strength is unknown, but I heard that he returned to the manor a week ago, and he was the one who contacted us."

"My grandson is so old, how old is Joakim himself? Is he a superhuman being?"

"He's not an extraordinary person. In terms of age, he should be at least 80 or [-] years old. Does this have anything to do with the case?" Sonny asked suspiciously.

"Hard to say."

Jialan shook his head. As someone who came from Blue Star, he instinctively speculated whether it was related to asset inheritance. After all, Joachim owned such a huge asset and was restricted by manor law. The land use rights in his name could not be divided. , so after his death, one person must be designated to inherit all the land and estates.

Of course, cash and other assets can be distributed arbitrarily, but all fools know that Joachim's land industry is the root cause. Mastering the land means having a steady stream of wealth, rather than sitting on nothing.

Since there was too little information, the way the case was presented had nothing to do with the fight for inheritance. After all, George was a grandson, and he had his father above him, so it was not his turn.

The carriage bumped all the way until dusk, when everyone arrived at Camos Manor.

After learning that the adventurous group who had taken on the mission had arrived, George warmly received them and held a sumptuous open-air dinner for everyone on the open grass in the manor to show their welcome.

"Welcome to all the powerful members of the Demonic Snake Adventure Group! You're welcome, please use it with ease!"

George was a slender man in his early twenties. He was served by servants, and a full glass of wine was poured in front of everyone.

"Ha! I'm starving, let's start first!"

Pavan, who was driving the carriage, was tired after a long day. He raised his head and finished the wine in two gulps, and then started to feast on the food on the table. Jialan was stunned by his operation with no regard for image.

However, the others in the team were used to it, and they all responded with a drink and slowly started to enjoy it.

"Huh? Why doesn't this mage-san eat it? Is it because the food doesn't suit your taste?"

George looked at Jialan and asked curiously.

"No, these foods look great. I was just thinking about the mission. I wonder if there have been any disappearances in the manor in the past week?" Jialan picked up the knife and fork and asked.

"There are indeed two cases. One is the maid responsible for my daily life, and the other is the manager of the manor. They both disappeared on the same day, which made everyone panic."

"Don't worry, we will definitely find out the murderer behind it!" Sonny said solemnly.

At this time, Jialan saw that everyone had eaten the food, even George, so she stopped talking and started eating with confidence.

The dinner ended quickly, and George arranged a rest room for everyone, located on the second floor of the main building of the manor.

Ten o'clock at night.

The lights go out.

Everyone in the Demon Snake Adventure Group gathered in Sonny's room.

"Okay, let's talk about what we each found."

Soon, Maeve, the only shooter in the team, spoke first.

"After dinner, I walked around the outside of the manor and guess what I found."

As she spoke, Maeve took out a tooth and showed it to everyone. The tooth was yellow in color, with dried dirt on the surface and neat roots.

"Sure enough, it's them." Sonny thought to himself, "At first it was the farmers who disappeared, but then they gradually became more serious and attacked people in the manor directly. It is in line with their usual style. Do you have any other discoveries?"

"The food is delicious, this is not normal," Parveen blurted out.

"What's the problem? Shouldn't the quality of food be determined by the chef's skills?"

"That's not right." Pavin, who had eaten the most at the table, frowned, "So many people have disappeared in the manor in a row, and just two days ago, two companions who lived together in the manor just disappeared. The people in the manor are panicked, but the chef here But it is not affected at all and still produces high-quality food!”

"..."

"..."

The air in the room fell into silence. Sonny wanted to retort, but couldn't think of a reason.

"Ahem~ What Pavin said makes sense. Not only that, the owner of the manor, George, is also a little too calm."

Jialan added.

"Where's Ruilin, do you feel anything abnormal?"

Ruilin shook her head, "No."

"Since there is no other discovery, it is most likely that he is a vampire. This tooth is the best proof."

"Wait, why do you say that, and where did the vampires come from?"

Faced with a blind spot in knowledge, Jia Lan used her inquisitive spirit and quickly asked for advice.

"The bloodline is a bloodline that has been inherited from ancient times. People who practice this bloodline are called vampires. If that's all, it's just a variety of ways to practice. But if you want to practice this bloodline, you must constantly absorb human blood. , the impact is very bad and has been expressly banned by various countries.

This tooth was squeezed out by the regrown fangs of ordinary people after being hugged for the first time. It is impossible for the teeth that were lost due to trauma to be so complete without even a single crack. "
