Chapter 2751: Partners Usually Did Their Missions Together
Partners usually did their missions together. It was because they were familiar with each other and didn’t need to get used to each other to work together.
A mission, carried out by blood hunters unfamiliar with each other, was much more likely to have slip-ups.
That was why Ning Shu asked about Touro’s partner’s whereabouts. It was unusual to look for a new partner unless one’s partner had died.
Touro shrugged. “You know Casey and his… hobbies. Who knows which woman’s bed he’s in right now?”
Ning Shu rolled her eyes. Casey was a well-known manwhore within the blood hunter order. The moment his mission was over, he’d be off for a good time.
As a blood hunter, he lived his entire life walking on a knife-edge, so it was understandable that he felt immense psychological pressure and chose to blow through his money while he still could.
Ning Shu took a sip of her milk. She then asked, “Why do you need a person with type O blood? Does this vampire specifically target girls with type O blood?”
“Bingo. According to our information, all the dead girls had type O blood,” Touro said.
“Our enemy is very cunning. They couldn’t catch this vampire at all. Some policemen even died while trying to do that.”
Ning Shu nearly choked. “You want me to be bait?”
Touro nodded. “Don’t worry, Casey and I will definitely protect you.
“And we’ll split the reward three ways,” Touro said.
Ning Shu couldn’t decide whether she wanted to go or not. If she went, it would eat up time and she wouldn’t be able to cultivate.
She had a more powerful enemy to consider: Perry, the vampire prince.
But if she went, she’d get to learn more about the vampires.
She was lucky enough to barely escape from Perry’s claws last time. She needed to understand the gap in strength between Perry and other vampires.
Seeing Ning Shu’s troubled face, Touro said, “Don’t worry, there’ll definitely be plenty of money. We definitely need a blood hunter for this though since a normal girl would definitely be scared and just freeze on the spot.”
Finally, Ning Shu nodded and agreed to go.
Ning Shu leaned closer to Touro and asked, “There’s something I want to ask you.”
“What’s the matter?” Touro took a sip of his wine.
“I’ve always been curious about where the holy water we got came from.”
Touro didn’t even think about it before he answered, “The church distributes it to us.”
“Where did the church get it from?” Ning Shu asked.
“Well, it was given by God,” Touro replied.
“You believe that there is a God?” Ning Shu couldn’t help asking.
Touro shrugged his shoulders. “Of course. I mean, vampires exist, and Cain, the first vampire, was even cursed by God.”
Ning Shu: …
Ning Shu didn’t really believe in God, and the holy water seemed to be more like water full of energy. ASC
This water was not harmful to ordinary people, but it was harmful to vampires.
Vampires were blessed with supernatural powers. Could humans also have magicians and witches?
What if the holy water was magic cast by a magician?
Ning Shu was a rookie blood hunter; these things were way above her station.
Ning Shu finished eating the hamburger, drank the remaining milk in one gulp, and said to Touro, “I’ll go back and pack up.”
The reason why Ning Shu decided to take on this mission after all was to try and find some cinnabar and yellow talisman paper while she was out. Since spells worked, cinnabar and talisman paper would probably also work.
But this was not the East; these things were rare here.
Vampires were afraid of sunlight, crosses, and garlic.
However, it seemed that some forms of energy could also destroy them.
“Okay, I’ll wait for you at the gate of the manor.”
Ning Shu returned to her room and found Mina inside. She was ragged and covered with dust, with her suitcase at her feet.
She seemed to have come back in a hurry.
