Chapter 83:
The campfires of the Witch Hunter camp flickered and burned in the night, like stars in the darkness.
But this night was not peaceful.
Especially in the ruined outer city area just a wall away, there were still many scavengers from the survivor camps busy at work.
After Jed’s group perished, Murphy had announced the next plan to the people of the survivor camp. They would soon move back to this land that had been purified by flames, no longer needing to gaze upon their homeland from the camp.
The survivors felt encouraged.
Especially since Murphy had allowed the militiamen to participate in the hunt for Jed’s group!
Although this act itself was not explained much, it did not prevent the smart people in the camp from discerning Murphy the new lord’s view of his vampire kindred.
Many stories about Murphy and Tris were dug up and pored over repeatedly. From the former plight of this pair of elder and progeny vampires rejected as trash by the Blood Vulture Clan, an inaccurate but absolutely credible conclusion could be drawn.
That is, compared to the Blood Vulture Clan vampires, Lord Murphy was more like a midnight traitor, he clearly preferred to stand with these loyal humans!
