Chapter 025: Countdown
获得主角能力的我只想过平凡生活 · 第025章 倒计时
The Sultan's heart skipped a beat at the whimpering sound coming from his daughter's mouth.
Ever since this woman of his had turned into what she was now, aside from being unable to bask in the sun, what troubled him even more was that his adorable daughter had actually developed a taste for drinking human blood.
This was already no different from a monster.
So far, he had always used animal blood as a substitute for human blood.
But his daughter's craving for human blood grew stronger with each passing day.
Just a few days ago, she had attacked her own maid, nearly causing the maid to die from excessive blood loss.
After regaining consciousness, the look of remorse in his daughter's eyes made him, as a father, feel an unbearable pang in his heart, which was why he was so anxious to cure her.
Unexpectedly, he was too impatient, which almost led to his daughter being kidnapped.
The incident just now still left him trembling with fear.
Now hearing his daughter's sobs, he felt even more heart-wrenched, so he quickly embraced her; no matter what, he did not want his daughter to become a blood-sucking monster.
But this was of no use.
Princess Jasmine had not consumed human blood for several days, and now, catching the scent of it, she could no longer suppress the impulse in her heart, her mind clouded by the craving for blood. Even her own father could not stop her.
Even after Princess Jasmine realized that the person holding her was a human, she instinctively aimed for the Sultan's neck, opened her mouth to reveal two sharp fangs, and bit down hard.
But just then, a figure suddenly appeared beside the princess, holding a piece of wood and stuffing it into Princess Jasmine's mouth.
Crack...
After Princess Jasmine became a vampire, her fangs were sharp and her bite force astonishing. The hard wood was pierced by her fangs, emitting a strained sound, as if it could be crushed to pieces at any moment.
The figure grabbed the Sultan by the back of his collar, yanking him back from Princess Jasmine's embrace, while simultaneously slapping Princess Jasmine on the forehead.
Princess Jasmine was instantly sent flying, crashing to the ground, and lay motionless, unconscious.
The Sultan, still shaken, looked at the newcomer. "Anna, it's you."
The newcomer was Anna Veleris.
The Sultan looked at the newcomer, still shaken. "Anna, it's you." The newcomer was none other than Anna Valeris. On the other hand, Wang Bo, hiding in his own room, was also paying attention to what was happening in Princess Jasmine's room. Seeing Anna knock out Princess Jasmine, Wang Bo withdrew his gaze.
On the other hand, Wang Bo, hiding in his own room, was also paying attention to what was happening in Princess Jasmine's room. After seeing Anna knock out Princess Jasmine, Wang Bo withdrew his gaze.
With his current strength, no movement within the palace could escape his notice.
In fact, when Abimo announced that he could cure the princess, Wang Bo was already intrigued.
Although Abimo was not a wizard and had no special power in his body, Wang Bo did not look down on him, after all, this was a world of Arabian Nights.
In a world where even elves exist, it's not inconceivable that an ordinary person might know how to cure illnesses.
Maybe they have some miraculous folk remedy.
However, Wang Bo did not expect that Abimo was not here to cure the disease at all, but to kidnap.
To be honest, when Abimo kidnapped Princess Jasmine, Wang Bo was also shocked by the other party's audacious move—kidnapping the princess right in front of the king and the guards.
This person is very bold.
If the princess were still an ordinary person, the other party would likely have succeeded.
Unfortunately, he came too late; Princess Jasmine had already become a vampire bride, and her physical strength had undergone earth-shaking changes, making it far too easy for her to deal with an ordinary person.
Afterward, things unfolded exactly as Wang Bo had expected.
Abimo was quickly taken down, and Princess Jasmine, who had lost her reason, was subdued by Anna.
Feeling that nothing special was developing, Wang Bo withdrew his gaze and continued studying his own witchcraft.
The people who came with Abimo from outside were also rounded up by Hazim and his guards. Although it stirred up a bit of chaos, Hazim quickly resolved it.
From this, it seemed that this fellow had some skill to become the king's captain of the guard.
The matter of kidnapping the princess thus came to an end.
But from this day forward, the Sultan valued his daughter more and more, and would not allow anyone to approach the princess without genuine talent and learning.
This also left many doctors at a loss.
After all, they had not even seen the princess, so how could they treat her?
Many doctors felt that the king was simply making things difficult for them, and gradually, fewer and fewer people came to treat the princess.
Wang Bo did not mind this.
After all, turning Princess Jasmine from a vampire bride back into a human is not something a group of ordinary mortals can accomplish, not even the most skilled physician.
Even if your medical skills were extraordinary, you could never turn a tiger into a wolf.
The ability to change species simply did not exist in ancient medicine, unless supernatural power was used.
But as it happened, these doctors who had come rushing over possessed no supernatural power.
Even if they possessed some folk remedies and secret arts, without seeing the princess, they had no way to apply them and could only return home.
Under these circumstances, the days passed one by one.
Regarding the one-month agreement between him and the dragon, only the last three days remained.
Wang Bo finally began to act.
First, he found Anna and told her the location of the Miracle Treasure Cave, asking her to take a few guards and head there ahead of time.
"When you reach the Miracle Cave, don't go inside. Find a place to hide, and after the dragon leaves, go in and find the magic lamp. Do you understand?"
Wang Bo cautioned.
Anna nodded and said with a smile, "I thought you would have Dracula look for the magic lamp."
Wang Bo said, "I will also tell Dracula the location of the Miracle Treasure Cave. If you cannot get the magic lamp, I will have to rely on Dracula. This is insurance."
Anna indicated that she understood.
Wang Bo continued, "Also, after you obtain the lamp, the genie will only grant you three wishes. Your first wish must be to come to my side, and your second wish must be to help trap the dragon or put it to sleep. Only then can I send this dragon back to its original world."
"As for the third wish, it's up to you. Any questions?"
Anna made an OK gesture, indicating no problem. So, at noon that day, taking advantage of the scorching sun when Dracula could not move freely, Anna set out with her people to find the Cave of Miracles.
That evening, Wang Bo posted a notice in the palace, inviting Dracula to meet.
At night, Dracula sent a bat to find Wang Bo.
"The appointed day is approaching. I will leave Agrabah tomorrow and head to the cave outside. Two days later, the dragon will leave its lair and come to find me. When that time comes, I will hold off the dragon, and you go find the magic lamp."
Wang Bo said to the bat.
