Agamemnon nodded, his eyes quickly scanning the room's environment and the body of the Tesnan, showing that he was looking for some important clues. He slowly began to explain, "This should be the work of a Blood Demon."
Upon hearing this term, Mayor Eldrick and the sheriff both showed puzzled expressions. The mayor urgently asked, "Blood Demon? What exactly is that?"
Agamemnon turned and walked towards the back door, carefully inspecting the traces while answering, "The Blood Demon is a low-level sub-species of vampire, usually serving as servants to higher-level vampires. Their main characteristic is possessing astonishing strength and to some extent, abilities similar to vampires, such as shapeshifting, blood-sucking, and so on. Unlike vampires, Blood Demons usually have a more grotesque appearance, lack mental control abilities, and have relatively lower intelligence."
Agamemnon's explanation made the mayor and the police chief exchange a glance, both showing a worried and tense expression on their faces. The mayor asked with concern, "So, is this kind of Blood Demon a huge threat to the residents of our town?"
Agamemnon continued to inspect the traces at the back door and replied seriously, "Yes, Sheriff. The presence of Blood Demon is a huge threat to everyone. Their behavior is unpredictable and often extremely brutal. We must quickly track them down and eliminate them to ensure the safety of the town residents."
Upon hearing this, a determined look flashed in the sheriff's eyes. "Mr. Agamemnon, we will assist you with all our efforts. Please tell us what we should do."
Agamemnon's attitude appeared unusually indifferent, showing no concern for the mayor and sheriff's worries and tensions. He calmly presented his conditions: "If you need my help to eliminate this Blood Demon, my fee is three thousand universal coins. To retrieve the missing children, it will be an additional two thousand." His voice was calm and firm, leaving no room for negotiation.
Upon hearing this brazen demand, the sheriff's anger was visibly intensified. He tightly gripped his gun, his voice filled with strong dissatisfaction: "Are you trying to rob us? This price is outrageous! It's almost half a year's salary for me!" His gaze was fixed on Agamemnon, as if searching for any hint of compromise.
Agamemnon remained unmoved and continued to examine the traces in the room, calmly explaining, "The Blood Demon is no ordinary enemy. They possess immense power and move in mysterious ways. They are usually under the command of high-level vampires. If this is true, you may not only be facing a Blood Demon, but also its master. Dealing with such an enemy requires appropriate preparation and risk."
He turned and walked towards the back door, continuing to inspect the traces there, while continuing, "My fee is for the risk and preparation required for this operation. If you are not willing to pay, then I will have to leave."
After speaking, Agamemnon slowly walked towards the staircase to the second floor. As he ascended, he left behind these words: "Perhaps I have misjudged, and this Blood Demon is just acting on a whim to snatch a child. But who can be certain?" His voice echoed in the air, revealing a sense of mystery and unpredictability.
At this moment, both the chief and the mayor felt immensely powerless and frustrated. They were not only facing a difficult case, but also a tough and elusive Half Blood. Agamemnon's departure plunged the entire room into silence. In this moment, they had to reconsider their choices and contemplate how to deal with this seemingly unsolvable problem before them.
The sheriff's emotions are still in an agitated state. He paces back and forth, occasionally waving his arms forcefully, his voice filled with anger and dissatisfaction: "That half-blood is simply outrageous! Taking advantage of the situation, truly money-minded!" His face reveals a strong disgust towards Agamemnon.
The guards nearby also join in the discussion. One guard, with obvious contempt, says, "Half Blood is just like that, no different from monsters, selfish and self-serving." Another guard shows curiosity: "That Agamemnon, his eyes and the scales on his face... is he a lizard hybrid?" The first guard impatiently responds, "Who knows! They're all just hybrids of monsters, full of bad intentions!"
Mayor Eldrick Listening to these words, he looked pensive. His brow furrowed, as if weighing Agamemnon's proposal against the practical difficulties. The sheriff noticed the mayor's contemplation and asked in puzzlement, " Eldrick, you're not seriously considering accepting that bastard's conditions, are you? Five thousand universal coins is no small amount, it's a huge expense for us!"
The mayor took a deep breath, turned to the sheriff, and spoke with determination and seriousness, "Sheriff, we must consider the bigger picture. If money can solve the problem, why not give it a try? Bolt's safety, the lives of the townspeople, these far exceed the value of money. We cannot let the monsters harm our people again."
The police chief fell silent for a moment, his expression gradually shifting from anger to hesitation. He looked at the mayor, a hint of struggle flashing in his eyes. "But Eldrick, how do we raise this money? This is a heavy burden."
The mayor's gaze was firm. "We will find a way. For our townspeople, to prevent more innocent lives from being threatened, we must do this. I will discuss with the town council to see how we can resolve this cost."
At this moment, the debate among the guards gradually ceased, and their gaze turned to the mayor and the sheriff, with expressions of concern and anticipation on their faces. The entire room fell into a tense and serious atmosphere, as everyone realized that they were at a crucial turning point, and that every step they took would impact the fate of the entire town.
