Chapter 320 - A Simple Matter (1/2)

Roland couldn’t help but back off when he caught whiff of the stink.

But he managed to hold it back. He cast Magic s.h.i.+eld, Body Fortification, Agility, Hearing Increase and other buffs to himself, before he stepped into the cave.

Thanks to the protection of the magic s.h.i.+eld, the stink of urine that Roland smelled was not as insufferable as before.

The moment he stepped into the cave, Roland established a field of mental power.

It was not very large. He intentionally kept it within a range of ten meters.

The cave was extremely dark and he could barely see five meters in front of him. Also, the terrain was complicated in the cave. There might be a couple of crossroads on every path.

However, it had been three minutes since Roland met the last crossroad.

As he pressed deeper, the cave grew darker and darker still.

He walked as softly as possible. Up until now, he hadn’t found any enemies.

But then he heard some queer noises from up ahead.

Sounds were more or less deformed because of the echo in the cave, and when they were transmitted far away, they became so creepy that they were like the whispers of ghosts.

Those obscure noises were blood-freezing in the darkness.

Roland walked forward, but he suddenly detected a secret chamber nearby with his mental field. Inside the chamber were a dozen human-shaped creatures.

The chamber was not locked. Roland pushed the door and opened it easily.

He was vigilant at first, but then it occurred to him that those human-shaped creatures were very feeble and their spiritual waves were unsteady.

Roland waved his hand, and a tiny, dim ball of light appeared before him.

Then, he saw a bunch of naked girls crouching or lying inside the secret chamber. They were clean and did not reek, but they were all asleep.

Roland examined them, only to see red flecks on their neck and arms. Upon closer look, he found that the flecks were bite marks.

Were they left by the vampires after they enjoyed the food?

Those girls must be the so-called “blood slaves.”

Roland was going to treat the girls, but then he realized that he should probably annihilate the two vampires as well as the dark creatures under their control first in case they were alarmed.

He exited the secret chamber and walked several meters. Then he stopped.

He saw a crossroad ahead of him; he only needed to set up an ambush here.

He closed his eyes and waited a few minutes. Then he heard hasty footsteps from ahead.

A woman rushed closer in panic.

She stopped when she was ten meters from Roland, and she stared at him with her crimson eyes.

Naturally, Roland saw her too.

Her red, vicious eyes were too obvious in the darkness.

Though Yelia had asked him to attack the vampires the moment he saw them, Roland still asked, “You stole the girls inside that secret chamber, didn’t you?”
