Chapter 2786: Digging up a Grave
Touro took out a vampire detector. A bright spot appeared on the screen.
“It really is here.”
The four newbies were so nervous that their entire body was shaking.
Their faces were also flushed for the same reason.
“Take out your weapons now,” Touro said to them.
The four scrambled to take out their weapons.
Some of them held silver swords, while another took out their holy water. Another took out their bow and crossbow.
Touro didn’t say anything else as he stared at the scanner.
Finally, they stopped in front of a tomb.
If it wasn’t for the dilapidated cross over it, this mound of soil wouldn’t look like a grave at all.
“This is probably it,” Touro whispered to Ning Shu.
“There are no other vampires around here.”
Ning Shu nodded and set up a yang gathering formation.
This would weaken the newly awakened vampire.
She didn’t know if the one resting down there really was a vampire, but if not, it would mean they had dug up some innocent grave.
With a smile, Ning Shu said to the four newbies, “You guys can start digging.”
This was the four newbies’ first mission. They could only do whatever their seniors asked. Even if they had any complaints, they wouldn’t dare spit it out.
They each took out a shovel from their suitcase and began to dig at the grave.
Ning Shu stood at the side and prepared another spell.
Touro took out silver arrows, which had been soaked in holy water, and a crossbow.
The four newbies were still digging. It seemed the grave was very deep.
They had to dig for quite a while before their shovel hit the coffin.
When they did, a sickening smell of blood wafted out of the earth.
“Allow me.” Ning Shu took over the shovel and started shoveling away the soil covering the coffin. Finally, she wiped the last of the soil off the coffin with her hand.
Underneath the coffin was a flat stone slab.
As Ning Shu wiped away the dirt on the coffin, an intricate pattern was revealed.
It was unlike the five-pointed star she’d previously seen.
As expected, this was likely also a third-generation vampire.
The coffin was a very beautiful one, engraved with roses.
Ning Shu dusted off her hands and then reached out to open the coffin.
The coffin was very heavy. Ning Su’s strength only allowed her to slowly push it open.
When the coffin was finally opened, Ning Shu pinched her nose and looked inside.
A man lay in the coffin. His hair had been combed smoothly, and his hands were placed over his stomach.
His skin was incomparably pale. He wore beautiful garments and tucked in his chest pocket, was a bright, flaming red rose.
The rose didn’t have the slightest sign of wither or rot. Ning Shu had no idea what it was made of.
The red was so vivid as if its color had been achieved by pouring blood on it.
The man suddenly opened his scarlet eyes and said some intelligible words to Ning Shu.
Ning Shu: …
The frick? It was another one that spoke gibberish.
The third-generation vampire, however, didn’t care whether Ning Shu could understand him. He reached out his hand and tried to pull Ning Shu into the coffin to feed on her.
Ning Shu hastily dodged. She rapidly formed hand signs and created a spell to suppress the third-generation vampire.
He froze. However, the spell only lasted for a moment until it was broken.
“@$%&……” the vampire said, his scarlet eyes glaring at Ning Shu.
His glare made Ning Shu’s body instantly become ice-cold.
She felt as if she was being targeted by something extremely dangerous. She felt like a prey meeting its natural predator.
Ning Shu quickly formed hand signs and held the vampire in place with another spell.
“Give me the silver sword!” Ning Shu shouted.
Touro got out of his daze the quickest. He picked up the silver sword on the ground and threw it at Ning Shu.
Ning Shu bit through her finger and quickly drew a spell on the silver sword.
Just as the spell holding the vampire down was about to break, Ning Shu thrust her sword into the vampire’s heart.
