Have you had enough, Miss Vampire? It's time to get down to business.

"So... the so-called 'water ghost' is actually a monkey that escaped from a circus and lost its hair due to a skin disease?"

After roughly scanning the content, Captain Rhonina raised her eyebrows in surprise.

"That's right, Captain. I searched for this 'water ghost' for most of the night and finally found it in a sewer connected to the river."

sewer……

No wonder you smell so bad.

So, was this another blunder? I felt a little sorry for Vivian, but it was a good thing Lor didn't choose this quest yesterday... Hopefully, the "Haunted Manor" incident will yield some results.

However, based on past experience, this is unlikely.

Captain Ronina couldn't help but feel a little worried.

Gordon City is not a big city, but it is not a small city either. Every now and then, there will be an incident involving supernatural powers.

Before the actual investigation begins, many clues are difficult to distinguish between true and false, but as long as there is some clue, the Exorcist Team must take action, as this is their duty.

But in the past three months, all kinds of blunders have almost all fallen on Lor's head.

This was the first time Captain Ronina had ever seen someone as unlucky as him.

"I can now understand Lor's feelings."

Vivian shook her head in annoyance.

"This feeling of working myself to death all night and not getting even a shred of credit is truly awful... Captain, there are only two days left until this 'achievement review,' right? Do you have any other tasks you can assign me?"

As she spoke, she took a step forward, holding Captain Rhonina's desk with both hands, looking quite anxious.

The foul smell from the sewer also hit me in the face.

Captain Rhonina finally couldn't maintain her dignified and elegant demeanor anymore. She couldn't help but hold her breath and lean back.

“Not at the moment, unfortunately.”

Vivian's eagerness was understandable. After all, as long as she accumulated some more merits, she would be eligible to apply for "promotion."

If approved, not only will your position and salary be improved, but you will also be able to obtain higher-level extraordinary abilities from the church, and your strength will reach a new level!

The difference between people is so huge.

Vivian and Lor joined the Gordon City Exorcist Squad at about the same time, with only a few days' difference. Three months later, one of them was just one step away from a promotion and a raise, while the other was on the verge of falling behind.

In short, Vivian was anxious.

If you miss this opportunity, you will have to wait another three months to apply for promotion!

"Captain, actually..."

Weiwei hesitated for a moment, but finally made up her mind and said:

"Actually, I've recently come across some concerning clues. There seems to be a heretical group called the 'Eternal Life Society' lurking in Gordon City. Among their members may be several illegal transcendents involved in black magic activities!"

"Oh?"

Captain Luo Nina's expression suddenly turned serious. If this was true, this was indeed no small matter.

“Is the source of the information reliable?”

"That's... hard to say. I've only heard some rumors, but I think a thorough investigation is necessary!" Vivian excitedly slammed the table. "I've already developed an informant who has had contact with members of the Eternal Life Society and even obtained a profile of their leader!"

As she spoke, she took out a portrait from her bosom.

It depicts a man with a gloomy face and a full beard.

"It's said that this is a dangerous individual with profound knowledge of the occult, known as 'Master Guderian'... Captain, please allow me to disguise myself and approach members of the 'Eternal Life Society'. Then, I'll find a way to infiltrate the organization and uncover their details!"

Vivian became more and more excited as she spoke.

Her goal was clear: with only two days left, she had to do everything she could to accumulate merit and qualify to apply for a promotion.

However, Captain Ronina shook her head:

"No."

"Why?!"

"Although your achievements are indeed outstanding, you are still a rookie after all. This kind of infiltration mission is extremely dangerous and cannot be left to you alone."

Captain Luo Nina patiently explained, "Besides, you're very impulsive right now. If this so-called 'Eternal Life Society' is as dangerous as you claim, the slightest mistake could cost you your life."

"This……"

Vivian bit her lip lightly, unable to refute for a moment.

"You're still young, Vivian. There's no need to be so impatient. Steady progress is the right path," Captain Rhonina consoled her. "As for the clue you provided, I will take it seriously."

at this time.

Someone knocked gently on the office door, and after receiving a response from Captain Ronina, the visitor pushed the door open and walked in.

It's Lol.

"Good morning, Captain... Hey, Vivian, you're here too."

Luo Er raised his hand to greet him, then his face turned pale and he quickly pinched his nose: "Wow, what's that smell? Did the toilet pipe burst?"

As a result, Vivian glared at him fiercely.

"Ahem, good morning, Lor." To ease the awkward atmosphere, Captain Rhonina coughed twice and said, "How's the investigation into the haunted manor going?"

"Oh, I was just about to tell you about this. Actually..."

At this moment, Lor suddenly caught a glimpse of the profile of "Master Guderian" on the table.

"Huh? This person..."

"Have you met the leader of the Eternal Life Society?" Seeing Lor's reaction, Vivian's face flushed with excitement. She strode over and firmly grasped his shoulders with both hands. "When? Where did you meet him?"

"Eternal Life Society? Is this the name of that group of people's organization?" Lor retreated tactically.

"Answer my question now!"

"Okay, okay, please stay away from me... Last night, I saw this man in a deserted manor in the suburbs." Lor confirmed the portrait again and replied, "He's dead."

"Dead?" Vivian and Captain Rhonina were both stunned.

Guderian, the rumored leader of a heretical society and an extremely dangerous master of the occult, is actually dead? He died before we even had a chance to investigate?

"Correct."

Lor nodded and added:

"Not only him, but also several other illegal superhumans. They should be the members of the 'Eternal Life Society' you just mentioned... Anyway, they all died. It was quite tragic."

The entire office fell into silence.

The red-haired Vivian was dumbfounded for a long time before she spoke in a daze:

"...You did it?"

6. I'll give you a great credit

"How can that be possible? I don't have that ability."

Lor laughed and said, "In general, it was the black magic ritual they were performing that went awry and led to their own destruction. I only played a small role in it..."

He began to report to Captain Rhonina what had happened last night.

Of course, it is a version he made up on the spot.

No matter what, the Church must not be made aware of the existence of the vampire girl "Isabella"! Also, the fact that I had been forced into becoming a vampire family member must be concealed, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous!

Once exposed, he will definitely become the target of the church!

Before coming to Captain Ronina's office, he first went to the church's information room and looked up documents related to the vampires.

It turns out that what Isabella said last night was not a bluff... After the "family contract" was established, both parties to the contract became a community with a shared destiny.

If "Master" Isabella dies, I, as her dependent, will be buried with her!

As for how to terminate the contract...

Anyway, there is no mention of it in the documents in the reference room.

In short, Lor now has to find a way to cover up what happened yesterday and provide a reasonable explanation for the tragic deaths of the "Eternal Life Society" members.

"In other words... you originally thought that an illegal gathering of extraordinary people was being held in that abandoned manor for the purpose of exchanging intelligence and resources, so you sneaked in to observe the situation?"

"Yes, Captain Rhonina."

Lor nodded and continued:

“However, after getting closer, I found that things were not simple... These guys were performing black magic rituals and using living people as sacrifices!

"Unfortunately, I arrived too late to save those three innocent victims... The ritual had already begun, and a malevolent supernatural force surged throughout the manor! For a moment, a chilling wind blew, ghostly figures loomed, and even the moon in the sky disappeared behind the clouds!"

Lor described it vividly, as if he had really seen it.

"Can you get straight to the point?" Vivian interrupted impatiently.

"No, these details are all important." Captain Ronina raised her head slightly and motioned Lor to continue.

"Okay... uh, where were we? Right, I felt my hair stand on end and a chill run through my body. I didn't know what they were summoning, but my intuition told me that if the ritual succeeded, the consequences would be disastrous!

"So at the critical moment, an idea struck me. I tore off the cross hanging around my neck, poured all my spiritual power into it, and threw it towards the center of the ritual altar!

"Captain, you know that the power of holy light we possess has a restraining effect on all kinds of evil forces... Although my spiritual power is not much, as long as I can interfere with the energy field of the ritual and interrupt the summoning process, that is enough.

“I didn’t hold out much hope at the time, but I never expected that this method would actually work!

"The ritual was interrupted, and the uncontrolled supernatural energy transformed into invisible blades, slicing everyone present into pieces... Luckily, I had cast a defensive spell beforehand, so I managed to escape."

Having said that, Lor breathed a sigh of relief as if he had survived a disaster.

should……

No loopholes, right?

He was still a little nervous.

"Hmm... Based on your description, the Eternal Life Society is attempting to summon an extremely powerful evil being."

Captain Luo Nina pondered for a moment and said solemnly:

"If they succeed, in the worst-case scenario, the entire city might suffer... I never imagined such a serious incident would happen right here in Gordon City, right under our noses. This is my fault as captain."

Phew, looks like I managed to get away with it.

Lor breathed a sigh of relief.

"Thanks to your correct judgment, we avoided a disaster." Captain Rhonina stood up and said sincerely, "I must thank you, Lor... and congratulations."

"Eh? In other words... this incident can be considered a credit?" Lor was overjoyed.

"Not only can you calculate, you can calculate!" Captain Luo Nina patted Lor's shoulder approvingly. "I'll send someone to verify the scene later. If the situation is consistent with your description, you will be given a great credit!"

Lor wasn't worried about verifying the scene or anything like that.

After all, before dawn today, he went to the abandoned manor again and disposed of all things that could remind people of the "vampires".

In other words, the things that the "Eternal Life Society" originally intended to use to control the vampires, including holy water, talismans, silver swords, magic scrolls, etc., are now piled up in Lor's house.

As for the magic circle on the altar, it had long been destroyed by Isabella beyond recognition.

If nothing unexpected happens, what the "Eternal Life Society" tried to summon last night will remain a mystery forever.

All in all, the final result was a happy one for everyone.

Gordon City lost a heretic group that was doing evil, and Lor avoided the unemployment crisis and also obtained a batch of valuable extraordinary items.

Only Vivian looked unhappy.

After all, if the "Eternal Life Society" was wiped out, it would mean that she would have no chance of promotion in the short term.

Oh, right.

still have a question……

There is a vampire sleeping soundly in my house.

……

Lor hesitated in front of his door for a long time.
