Killing these vampires was a troublesome ordeal, each beheading would significantly deplete the holy water on the blade, rendering it ineffective and necessitating a fresh application of the secret Holy Water prepared by the nuns of the Starry Church. This is why Xu Shu was quite frugal.
When his cold blade touched her skin, the girl who had been feigning death in front of him could no longer hold the act and opened her eyes.
With tears brimming in her eyes, she looked upon Xu Shu with gratitude, "Big brother, thank you for saving me."
Xu Shu held up a finger, "Donât thank me, thank your own strength. But you need to be stronger still, for you must see to your parentsâ bodies now."
The expression on the girlâs face immediately stiffened, "..."
Then, with a complex gaze toward the corpses of her parents, she could no longer hold back and burst into tears.
Nothing could be done if she wanted to cry; they were able to afford an expensive room on the second floor, so they were most likely merchants from the city.
As merchants, there were certainly other survivors who would naturally take the girl back to the city.
"Itâs so dangerous on the Wasteland, yet they still travel with their daughter for business, I canât understand their thinking. Perhaps it was the child herself insisting on coming? The parents have no backbone at all, tsk tsk. But life and death are predestined, and wealth is in heavenâs hands. Another orphan in this world, how pitiful."
However, Xu Shu didnât have the luxury to ponder her future. Everyone has to pay the price for their choices.
He stood up and left the room, his vigilance heightened as he continued the
"Buzz off!" (Note 1)
Xu Shu didnât indulge it; instead, he split its legs down the middle and, with an upward strike, cleaved it in two.
Its voluptuousness scattered across the floor in a spectacularly lurid display.
After such a campaign, taking less than half an hour, he managed to slay all four vampires.
The silver lining amongst the tragedy was that their havoc was confined to the second floor.
If Xu Shu had arrived even slightly later, the casualty figures would likely have doubled.
The vampires had voracious appetites, truly excelling at draining their prey.
Of them, besides the last vampire which was of the thirteenth rank, the other three were ninth rank.
However, no white crystals; they all possessed green Erosion Crystals, indicative of "Fine" quality monsters.
After collecting all the Erosion Crystals, a hint of contemplation flickered in Xu Shuâs eyes.
Once upon a time, faced with these entities, he would have had to flee alongside other refugees. Now, he had the power to easily hunt them down.
This is the might of a sixteenth-rank Legendary Warrior; on the Wasteland, one could nearly walk unopposed.
Of course, this was far from enough strength. The Wasteland was too small, and the monster ranks merely first.
