Chapter 1114: The Forbidden Rose Song (24)
Someone from the World Salvation Society appeared at Gold Unchangeable one year ago.
That vampire accidentally provoked a vampire from Gold Unchangeable. When they were fighting, he revealed his tattoo.
After that, no one saw the vampire from the World Salvation Society again.
Ming Shu asked, “Why did that vampire come here?”
Jason hesitated for a moment. “I heard that he came to find information about the holy relics.”
No more information could be dug up. Vampires came and went in Gold Unchangeable. No one knew who the person beside them was.
Also, this matter happened one year ago.
Tong Ye gave some money to the vampire that brought them here. Jason didn’t stop him. He deserved it.When they came out from Gold Unchangeable, Tong Ye pestered Ming Shu and asked her how she knew Jason.
“I met him before,” Ming Shu replied casually.
“Why didn’t I know that?”
“You don’t know many things.”
Tong Ye: “…”
Tong Ye decided not to argue with her. “Luckily, we still managed to make some progress today. At least we know the existence of the World Salvation Society. They are probably the ones who are looking for the holy relics. What do they want them for?”
Tong Ye touched his chin as he pondered.
The World Salvation Society… he never heard about them before.Based on what Jason said, very few vampires knew about the society’s existence.
“My lords.”
Tong Ye turned around. A vampire wrapped in a black cloak ran toward them hurriedly.
The vampire bowed slightly. “You forgot to take your thing.”
It was the paper with the tattoo printed on it.
Ming Shu took the paper. This was just a copy of the tattoo. Tong Ye had many papers like this back at home. There was no need for them to specially return it to them…
Ming Shu narrowed her eyes. She put away the paper.
Tong Ye didn’t notice Ming Shu’s change of expression, but Su Mian did.
There were two words written on the paper—Be careful.Reminding her to be careful?
Be careful of what?
“Let’s split up and look around. We might find more clues,” Tong Ye said. “Many vampires come here. We might get some information out of them. I don’t believe that the World Salvation Society can keep their secret so well.”
Tong Ye felt that since they were already here, they shouldn’t waste this trip.
Ming Shu was indifferent.
Tong Ye went to the other side so Ming Shu brought Su Mian along and walked around the area.
A few bold vampires tried to touch Su Mian, but Ming Shu beat them up badly. After this, no vampires dared to provoke them anymore. They knew that she was not someone they could bully easily.
Gold Unchangeable was huge. Even though Ming Shu didn’t know where she was walking, she never crossed the same path.
“What are those people doing?” Su Mian grabbed Ming Shu suddenly and pointed to the tunnel at the side.
Many vampires were walking in that direction.Ming Shu glanced over. “I don’t know.” Ming Shu was not interested in what those vampires were doing.
She’d rather pamper her snacks.
“There are excellent goods today. They all went to the auction for the goods.”
A voice came from beside Su Mian. The person was wrapped in a black cloak. He stood at the side casually. The cape was opened slightly so they could see his beard.
Ming Shu glanced at him and didn’t answer. She pulled Su Mian away.
This person had evil intentions. No one would voluntarily talk to them for nothing.
The person who spoke grabbed the black music instrument case beside him and chased after them. “Aren’t you two going to take a look? The human auction only happens once every month.”
Su Mian heard the phrase “human auction.”Human auction?
“I’m not interested.” Ming Shu dragged Su Mian in the other direction.
Gold Unchangeable was a black market. It was reasonable that human auctions happened here.
The person continued following them. When there were no more vampires around them, he rushed forward and whispered, “Are you looking for the World Salvation Society?”
This grabbed Ming Shu’s attention. She looked at the vampire in front of her intently. He was biting a small purple wooden stick in his mouth. A pungent smell came from it.
Ming Shu was puzzled. “How do you know?”
The man pointed to his ear. “I overheard you accidentally.”
Ming Shu looked at the black music instrument case in his hand. She smiled. “What do you want?”
The person said, “Let’s make a deal. I will tell you information about the World Salvation Society and in return, you will follow me to the auction.”
“You are human. Why do you want to go to the auction? Are you trying to sabotage the auction or do you want to save someone?”
The pungent smell on his body covered his human smell. It was able to fool other people, but Ming Shu was not an ordinary vampire.
The man was stunned for a moment. He regained his composure after a while. “This is just a deal. We will both get what we want.”
…
The auction was held deep inside Gold Unchangeable. In order to enter the area, everyone needed to get their identity checked.
The auction ground was different from the other parts of Gold Unchangeable. The air here was fresh and the environment was comfortable.
Vampires from many other places came to the auction too.
After all, you could buy humans here.
If they raised the human properly, they could provide food for them.
They were brought to a small room to get their identities checked.
The man seemed slightly agitated but when he saw Ming Shu receive the number plate easily, he heaved a sigh of relief.
Ming Shu found their seats based on the number plate.
Everyone was treated equally at the auction. There was no difference in rank. The seats were based on the numbers they got.
No one knew if the person next to them was a wealthy and powerful person.
Ming Shu’s seat was in the middle. The seats behind her were still empty.
Ming Shu hugged Su Mian so that he was closer to her. She didn’t want him to have any contact with the vampire beside him.
Su Mian was not used to being stared at by so many people. This atmosphere made him uncomfortable. He felt as though he was an item on the display rack.
Ming Shu scanned the crowd lightly. This feeling immediately disappeared.
The moment they came in, the man instantly fulfilled his promise. “What do you want to know about the World Salvation Society?”
Ming Shu looked at the stage, which was covered with a black cloth. “Where can I find them?”
“They don’t have a fixed location. It will be hard to find them,” the man said.
“How do they communicate with each other normally? Telepathy?”
“The World Salvation Society has a complete system. Every member knows who they should contact.”
Ming Shu understood immediately. “Pyramid scheme.”
“… You can understand it that way too. The people below can only contact the person above them. They will not be able to contact their leader’s leader. This is to prevent the World Salvation Society from being exposed and prevent accidents from happening.”
Ming Shu tilted her head. “You seem to know a lot about the World Salvation Society. Do you have a way to contact them?”
The man kept quiet for a while. “Yes. However, this exceeded what I promised to tell you. Maybe you can ask anything else.”
“This is the only thing I want to know.”
She didn’t need any other information. They wanted to kill her so they would definitely look for her. She didn’t need to find them.
Also, she knew that Tong Ye was working hard to find them. She didn’t need to make the extra effort.
The man suddenly turned serious. “Why do you want to look for them?”
Ming Shu replied, “What does that have to do with you?”
“The World Salvation Society is made up of lunatics,” the man said. “You want to join them?”
Jason said that the World Salvation Society was filled with lunatics too…
