Two couples walked in - two men and two women. Their clothes were dirty and had traces of blood on them.
"Excuse me, is this a hotel?" one of the men asked wearily. "We heard about a castle that serves as a hotel, with food and lodging..."
"Yes, would you like to check in?" Gu Wanyin smiled.
"Yes."
"You can exchange gold, jewels, or Blood Element Pearls for points."
Just as the man was about to reach into his pocket, the woman beside him stopped him.
"Wait, we don't fully understand what's going on here yet. What if it's a scam?" the woman said cautiously.
Her suspicion was understandable - since the vampires appeared, they had encountered several scammers during their escape.
They had previously lost all their food to fraudsters.
That's why she had to remain vigilant.
"I think you're overthinking it. This lady has such a huge castle - what would be the point of scamming us for some jewels or Blood Element Pearls?" the other man said.
Despite his words, the woman still felt uneasy.
Gu Wanyin understood the woman's mindset.
After all, how could anyone survive the apocalypse without being cautious?
"Everyone, we already have quite a few guests staying at our hotel," Gu Wanyin said. "You mentioned hearing about the hotel from others, right? Those must have been our guests."
"We don't just have food and lodging here!" Old Six chimed in. "We also have weapons! And blood-stopping medicine!"
"That's wonderful... ah! What are you?!"
All four of them screamed when they noticed Old Six.
Although Old Six, Fugui, and Mengmeng were present when they entered, they were too exhausted and focused on Gu Wanyin to notice them properly, assuming they were just decorative toys...
"I'm garlic!" Old Six declared proudly with hands on his hips. "The very thing vampires fear!"
They were all terrified at first.
But upon hearing the word "garlic," their eyes lit up.
"Oh yes, looking at its shape, it really is a garlic bulb, and such a big one too..."
Although a talking garlic was beyond bizarre, for humans who had been plagued by vampires for so long, garlic was a precious commodity. They couldn't help but stare at Old Six.
"If you're interested in garlic, we have garlic seeds and land for growing them," Gu Wanyin seized the opportunity to promote. "We also have silver weapons and carbonated drinks that can corrode vampire skin."
The four of them were stunned by what they heard.
They didn't know what carbonated drinks were.
But something that could corrode vampires? That sounded amazing!
"Let's stop hesitating and stay here!"
Even the cautious woman, after looking at Old Six, was convinced and nodded, "Alright, let's try staying for one night."
As Gu Wanyin processed their check-in, she thought to herself that Old Six could become the hotel's living advertisement!
Having a garlic servant was quite convenient indeed!
These four had heard about the hotel beforehand, so they had been carefully collecting gold and jewels over the past few days.
After getting their room cards, they requested two double rooms.
It was now break time for Fugui and Mengmeng, so Gu Wanyin sent them to the dining hall for food while she and Old Six showed the four guests to their rooms and gave them a tour of the hotel.
As they were going upstairs, Gu Wanyin saw the little squirrel system scurrying over and jumping onto her shoulder.
"Weren't you going to eat?"
"I finished! Host, we have a new mission! And this time, hehe, it's quite challenging!"
