244. Travania
Probably the so-called holy water.
So he just stepped back a little so that he would not be too embarrassed to be thrown. He could resist. In fact, it was not difficult to solve these people, but he didn't want the beginning of every world to be like a naughty man.
So he let the cold liquid pour onto him, but he felt it was cold and had no other reaction.
Father Aaron nodded to the person closest to Zhou Chu again. The man with tough and blond hair and a sharp and sharp line-like look like a sculpture, took out a silver knife, shook it, and said to Zhou Chu.
"Sorry, I might scratch you, and I won't be too hard."
Zhou Chu's hands were still pressed. Although he could still easily break free, he still confirmed the other party's actions when the silver knife appeared.
The priest, holy water, and silver knife were confirming whether he was a vampire. Zhou Chu remembered the advice of the famous wolf girl. It seemed that in this Travanian area, if you walk alone at night, no matter who you meet, it would be easy to be considered a vampire by the other party.
In other words, this is where the so-called vampires prevail and touch.
When Zhou Chu was commenting on this area, the sharp knife also cut a small hole in his hand. He did not react at all. He just looked down at the wound, and did not stop the blood and coagulate. It was funny. In the nightmare world, blood cells must be controlled to bleed like a normal person. Otherwise, his wound would only be cut open, at most he would only see a blood color appearing or splashing out, and then it would instantly condense, and the wound would be slightly repaired immediately and no longer bleed.
After seeing that the other party did not respond to the holy water and silverware, several people let go of Zhou Chu, and then the priest Aaron smiled apologetically and gently.
"Sorry, we apologize for our recklessness and offense, just in Travania, for the late night walkers. We always have to be more careful, because we don't know when the devils will take advantage of the situation."
He also turned his body slightly and made a gesture of asking for help. The direction of his hands spreading and stretching out was exactly the direction of the town.
Zhou Chu shook his head and expressed his inattention. After seeing Zhou Chu's expression, Father Aaron nodded to the others, and then the people in simple uniforms put down their gunpowder guns. After insisting on it with Father Aaron, they walked towards the post of their darkness, leaving only the man with a flat head with a knife and a very Italian sculpture-like appearance.
"Karen, I am the militia captain of this town."
He nodded to the brown-sized sculpted man, and then Zhou Chu walked over with him and walked side by side with Father Aaron.
"Hello, a foreigner. I don't know if I can know where you came from and where you are going?" After looking at Zhou Chu for a while, Father Aaron said gently. His eyes were gentle and pure. Apart from gentleness and firmness, the rest was no clearness of emotions.
This look that should have only a teenager appeared in the eyes of middle-aged men.
"My partner and I came from the East and wanted to go to the British Empire in the West. It was just a rain of debate that left my companions and I separated. I had never been here before, so I thought I must have been lost. On the way, I met a traveler who told me that the way to get to the British Empire as fast as possible was to go east and take the air route from Bucharest. I had no better way because I don't know where and how to turn with my partner."
Zhou Chu naturally and simply made up half-true lies, and could not let the other party find the loophole.
"So that's it, my Lord is here. May you and your companions reunite soon. This is the town of Witler. It will take about a little more than a day to travel from here to Bucharest, and you will arrive soon."
"Thank you, priest." After Zhou Chu thanked Aaron, he pretended to be ignorant of his knowledge, "I have a question, I don't know if I can ask."
"Your question is mine. I hope I can answer your confusion." Father Aaron put the book on his chest and owed slightly to Zhou Chu.
"The people here seem to be very cautious about those who travel at night?" Zhou Chu said, and while he spoke, the three of them had already entered the town. Looking at the dark and light-free houses around him, he added.
"And the people here seem to fall asleep early after the nightfall."
"Because this is Travania." Karen, who followed the two men, answered in a muffled voice, silently, as if he was a dedicated guard.
Father Aaron looked back at Karen, then looked at the dark scenery around him, and made a cross on his chest with one hand.
"May my Lord bless you."
After saying this prayer, Father Aaron said to Zhou Chu.
"Yes, because this is Travania." After repeating Karen's words, Aaron asked again, "Don't you know vampires, do you know about vampires?"
"I have heard of it before." Zhou Chu replied, and said the vampire he had in his impression. Anyway, he was not afraid of saying it wrong. There will always be errors and differences in what he had heard. "I heard that it is an evil creature that can appear at night. I heard that every vampire is handsome and gloomy, afraid of sunshine and silver, crosses and holy water, living with blood, and is an evil creature abandoned by God."
"My Lord is above." Aaron struck a cross on his chest again, "That's right, but what you don't know about outsiders is that Travania is the most active place in the world, and it is also the base camp of the oldest vampires."
Zhou Chu did not speak, but looked at Aaron, waiting for his remarks. At the same time, he also felt that in the dark houses around him, some residents did not sleep, but peeked and explored themselves from behind the dark window.
"This starts with God's creation..." Aaron raised his head and looked at the dark night sky, as if in this way, his gaze could penetrate the endless darkness and see the light he believed in.
This is similar to what Zhou Chu knew and heard in reality, and what he had in his nerves: Cain and Abel, the two sons of Adam and Eve, the ancestor of mankind. Cain was a shepherd, and when Abel was sacrificed to God, God took advantage of Abel's fairness, but did not take advantage of Cain's offerings, so Cain felt jealous and hidden anger. After returning, Cain killed Abel, and God also sinned against Cain, causing him to be cursed for eternity, and could only live with blood, and wander alone in the world.
Cain, who was expelled, met the evil and fallen Lilith, and was seduced by her. The two of them were born with descendants, cursed by God because of their father. Therefore, they were afraid of the sunshine and everything related to God. They could only make a living with blood. However, because of Lilith, they had powerful power and magic power in the night. At the same time, because of God's curse, they had a thousand years of life. These who were not favored by God from the beginning and were abandoned, but did not belong to hell and natural demons. They minded between man and inhuman, and the pathetic existence was the ancestor of vampire.
While Aaron took Zhou Chu forward, he told the origin of the vampire.
"When these evil existences proliferated to the third generation, for some unknown reasons, the originally rare vampires suddenly reproduced in large numbers. While quietly erasing past history, they also called the Vampire and appeared in the vision of human beings with their descendants. Today, this evil race, cursed and punished by our Lord, has developed in all parts of the world, deeply and infiltrated, tempted and preyed on human blood, and Travania was the first place where they stood firm."
Aaron took Zhou Chu to a church, stopped, nodded at Karen, and then said again after watching Karen leave.
"So, this is also the area with the largest number of vampires and the most popular. Even everyone knows that the Travania Federation is actually a federation established and controlled by vampires in secret. It is the product of uniting the surrounding large and small principalities through evil temptation, violent means, or infiltration and replacement. Therefore, the people here live under the control and horror of vampires. Most of the people who dare to walk at night are vampires, because if they are not vampires, they will definitely be killed by vampires and suck blood."
After saying this, Father Aaron smiled apologetically at Zhou Chu.
"So people who have not completely surrendered and obeyed vampires here are always particularly guarded and vigilant about those who appear at night. If you are not confirmed to be a human, it is very likely to kill you directly."
"It's okay, I can understand." Zhou Chu thought, indeed, he could understand, because before them, he had been mistaken for vampires, attacked by those guys who called themselves humans and wolves, and was warned by them. Otherwise, there might be a battle or a massacre here.
"I'll just let you spend the night in the church tonight. After dawn, I'll see if there are any carriages to Bucharest and then arrange for you to go on the road."
"Then thank you priest." Zhou Chu nodded, looked at the church in front of him, and thought to himself that he really has a destiny to be with the church.
