Chapter 2770: That Was Definitely a Third-Generation Vampire
Ning Shu considered it. Going on this mission could mean avoiding Perry’s heroic rescue of Mina.
However, she didn’t wish to hide. She wanted to test her strength. Plus, even if she avoided Perry now, she’d always encounter him again eventually.
She should face her challenges head-on.
Ning Shu tapped her leg. “I still want to rest. I won’t be going on missions for a while.”
“Are you still afraid because of what happened before?”
“Nope.
“By the way, was it really a third-generation vampire that awakened that time?” Ning Shu asked Casey.
Casey patted his chest. “Trust me. That was definitely a third-generation vampire.
“Did you not notice the crown carved on the coffin? It must be the third-generation vampire of the elegant and aggressive Lasombra clan.”
Ning Shu had a vague memory of it. “Still, that could be any vampire from the Lasombra clan. It doesn’t necessarily mean the vampire was a third-generation vampire. Has the result of the higher-ups’ investigation come out?”
“Even if it has, it won’t be told to the public. It’d cause widespread panic.”
Ning Shu spread her hands. Anyhow, she wasn’t very afraid of it now. Her confidence naturally emerged with her strength.
Even if that vampire was really a third-generation vampire, Ning Shu felt that she could hold her ground and give that vampire a scratch or two. If she couldn’t do it, she’d just immediately escape.
After eating four big burgers, Ning Shu went back to her room and began to cultivate. The stronger she was, the better.
The atmosphere of the manor grew more suffocating by the day. Its inhabitants didn’t really know what was happening, but they could still feel the unusual atmosphere.
Casey and Touro were supposed to go on a mission but were told that all the blood hunters were prohibited from leaving the manor for the time being.
They were informed that a punishment ceremony would soon be held to punish a blood hunter who had committed wrongdoing.
As the time scooted closer, Ning Shu began to prepare herself.
The last time they fought, Perry had scratched her face. She’d do the same to his face this time.
She must take her revenge.
Soon, the higher-ups instructed all the blood hunters to come to the square within the manor.
Ning Shu went there and saw Mina, tied to a cross in the middle of the square. Her face was full of panic and fear.
The red-skirted woman Ning Shu had met with Touro and Casey stood on the high platform. With the breeze blowing on her skirt, she looked ethereally beautiful.
It seemed like she was going to personally preside over the ceremony.
Ning Shu secretly formed hand signs and a red light invaded Mina’s body.
This talisman wouldn’t hurt Mina. However, it’d make her unable to speak for four hours.
She’d lose her voice.
The red-skirted woman who stood on the high platform simply and directly said, “The criminal has been sentenced to death by being cut in half.”
The blood hunter onlookers all exclaimed in shock when they heard it.
This was a medieval punishment. This meant that the criminal would be sawed into two halves from the bottom to the top.
The prisoner’s brain would be clear, and it’d take time until they finally die. They’d feel the agony as they were being cut, even if they’d been cut up to their stomach.
The weapon used would also be a saw, which meant they’d feel every pull and push as the saw worked its way through their flesh.
It was horrific.
Just thinking about it made people shudder.
As soon as Mina heard the punishment, blood immediately drained from her face. She wanted to talk, and she opened her mouth, but no word spilled from her tongue.
Everyone could see Mina moving her mouth sharply, but no one could hear any word from her.
Mina’s face grew red with anxiety. She opened her mouth and wanted to shout. She tried until the veins on her neck swelled up, but she still couldn’t spit out a word.
Ning Shu’s face was cold. Casey asked her, “What happened to her?”
“She probably lost her voice out of fear.”
