Eroge: I can Travel To The Ancient World-Chapter 214: Tracking Back To The Master

Jia Hao's expression turned dark when he saw the large amount of Recent Future Points. If he were to summarize, it would be like this…

[ Recent Future Point: Three days later, the village people will die from the attack of undead beings and dark monsters]

' No wonder, No wonder Cai Fmaily's doom was so certain!' Jia Hao couldn't help but get shocked.

If there was a normal horde of dark monsters, Cai Family's Silver Lightning Cavalry and food soldiers could easily wipe them off. However, undead are different.

' As their names implied, killing them is very hard…if not impossible. They don't feel pain or fear. They can march forward even after losing their limbs.'

' The only way to kill them is the use of holy and righteous energy, along with destroying their undying core inside them.'

' An undead army attack is simply unheard of in the Great Yan Kingdom. So, it's natural that the Nanhai City would never expect it.'

' Not to mention, there would be other dark monsters along with them.'

" What happened, Investigator Jia? You look worried."

" I am fine…I am fine…" Jia Hao mumbled as he took a deep breath.

" Everyone, I know all of you are scared of the recent events. However, I wish to convey that we shall soon solve the problem." Jia Hao used his Dominance as his voice became imposing.

" The killings are the doing of a dark monster. However, be assured, we shall hunt it down and kill it."

" So, please relieve your worries as we are going to take from here."

The villagers were shocked when they heard it was the doing of a dark monster. But Jia Hao's words had a strange kind of charm and dominance, making them obey his every command.

" See? The Young Lord has spoken!"

" They will catch the monster soon!"

" The yamen is going to make a move!"

" This Captain, send a messenger and ask Old Yang to come here with a few guards." Jia Hao looked at the Third Captain.

" Young Lord, I believe we can take down a single Dark Bog Hound." The Third Captain looked at Jia Hao. " Then, Why should we…"

" Third Captain, I believe in your capabilities. However, It's best that we have a backup plan." Jia Hao replied.

" Also, We have another thing to do, to bait out the monster."

" Bait out the monster?" The Third Captain was surprised. " How are we going to do it?"

" Prepare some wheat straws, some chickens, and some clothes."

The Third Captain felt a bit strange when he heard Jia Hao's demands. But he simply nodded as he asked his subordinates to gather the ingredients.

Soon enough, they brought everything Jia Hao asked for. Jia Hao nodded with satisfaction.

" Prepare a scarecrow with those straws. Kill the chicken and stuff them inside. Make the straws soaked with chicken blood."

" Investigator Jia, You want to attract the beast with chicken blood?" The Third Captain frowned.

" But why would a monster get lured by chicken blood when it's attracted to human blood."

"Haha, Don't worry." Jia Hao laughed as he looked at him. " I know how to make chicken blood even more appetizing than human blood."

Among the villagers whose Recent Future Points Jia Hao saw, he found the villager who was going to get attacked tonight.

He was planning to plan the blood soaked scarecrow in the place of the victim, making the Dark Hound Bog get attracted to it.

After preparing the scarecrow, Jia Hao nodded with satisfaction, The blood dripping from the scarecrow wearing bloody clothing gave off an eerie and horrific sight.

However, it certainly looked like a human from afar.

With a snap of his fingers, Jia Hao used the desire qi of gluttony, slowly making it seep into the scarecrow.

Petals after petals of desire qi fell from his tree of desire. After a while, Jia Hao took a deep breath and patted his palms.

" It's done. Now, we are going to plant it in Fang Bo's house, Ask him to stay at his neighbor's house."

" This…"

Not only the Third Captain, but the other officers of the yamen felt like licking their lips when they looked at the bloody scarecrow.

A moment ago, everyone was looking at it with disgust and strangeness. However, right now, it looks like the best delicacy in the world, making everyone drool.

' Fuck, What's happening? Why do I want to eat that?'

' Nothing has changed but…I really want to suck off that blood.'

" Snap out! Don't fall into its enchantment!"

Jia Hao's words were like a bucket of cold water pouring on them. The Third Captain shuddered as he came back to his senses.

" I… I am sorry, Investigator Jia. I lost my composure."

" But, You enchantment…It's so strong!"

" Indeed, I am almost about to eat it."

" What do you think I prepared a bait, huh? Chicken blood can't attract that dog, but this can." Jia Hao grinned.

" Anyway, Just do as I saw. It won't be long before the hound attacks."

In primitive times, people of the village mostly go to sleep after a few hours of sunset. After all, there wasn't much entertainment like big cities nor any modern equipment.

Not to mention, burning oil lamps reduces the oil. So, most villagers sleep early and get up before dawn.

After the sun sat, a few villagers burned the lamps around their houses. From the dark, it looked beautiful yet…haunting.

Fang Bo was stunned when the yamen officers contacted him. But when he heard his life might be in danger, he hurriedly packed his thing and left.

" Fang Bo is a fisherman and he is a healthy man. Not to mention, his home is closer to the villager border." Jia Hao mumbled.

" Place the scarecrow on the bed and get out. We shall watch everything from the distance."

Two hours after the complete darkness, Jia Hao's ears perked up some strange sounds from the inside of the house.

His Sage's Divine Eyes shone as he saw a faint figure in the darkness from the far. After all, his eyes can easily see things from a great distance, even inside the darkness.

With a will, the status window flashed before his eyes.

[Dark Bog Hound (Enslaved): An undead beast with no emotions, only a base instinct controlled by a spiritual master]

[ Recent Future Point: An hour later, it would return to its master to deliver collected blood and spiritual energy]

' Fuck! As I thought! Someone is using the hound as a slave! And it turned out to be true!' Jia Hao gritted his teeth.

Thankfully, Jia Hao also poured a bit of his spiritual qi inside the scarecrow, making it more believable.

" Investigator Jia! Look! I think there is some movement!" The Third Captain whispered.

" The hound is here." Jia Hao got up. " Injure the hound, but don't catch it. Let it get away."

" You…You want to tail it?" The Third Captain's eyes shone as he hurriedly nodded.

" Everyone! Let's go!"

As they opened the door, they saw a large black hound trying to drag the scarecrow away.

Its body was large, but it looked very skinny, like a sack of skin on bones. Not to mention, one could see the rotten chunks of wounds and exposed black bones, making it look like a zombie dog.

The eyes of the Dark Bog Hound shone with malice as it barked at the yamen officers.

" Monster! You dare to harm the commoners?" The Third Captain charged out as he unsheathed his sword.

His sword shone with a faint light as he slashed out towards the hound. The hound retracted its step as it turned around and escaped.

" Damn it! Don't let it go!"

" Chase after it!"

The Third Captain was a Profound Awakening Realm expert. Along with the officers of yamen, he gave a chase.

However, the hound was very fast as it entered the forest. It was as if it knew all the forest very well, making it escape faster among the woods.

" Damn it!"

" We can't see anything in darkness!"

" What are we going to do?"

As they paused, they only heard a faint voice.

" Leave it to me."

All they felt was a gush of wind as if someone passed by them with great speed. The Third Captain couldn't help but sigh with amazement.

" Investigator Jia is really amazing."

Using the Fading Moon Steps, Jia Hao moved like a ghost in the woods. His internal energy burned and his speed increased. But what was amazing was that there was no sound of his footsteps.

He reduced his speed as he stealthily chased after the hound. After all, only after letting it feel relaxed, the hound will lead Jia Hao to its master.

After following an intricate path, Jia Hao saw the hound entering a cave.

Jia Hao was going to enter the gave, but he paused his steps. He suddenly glanced at a few moss covered stones around the entrance of the cave.

If it was any normal person, he wouldn't have noticed them, But Jia Hao found them strange…as if those rocks were placed as a pattern.

[ Concealment Formation Flags: The flags creating an array formation that hides the things inside from outside viewers. Unauthorized intrusion can create an alarm]

' Ah, What a bastard.'

Jia Hao gave one last glance as he marked the place in his heart. Then he turned around and left.

After all, he doesn't have to take any risks.
