Chapter 493 Blood Scepter, additional information
After hearing what Lorena said, Richard's expression was a little subtle.
Although he knew that the Vampire Castle was very close to the Ice and Snow Empire, he never expected that the Vampire Castle could be related to the Frostwolf family.
Moreover, for the sake of a vampire treasure, the opponent's personnel were captured.
What made him even more dumbfounded was that the prisoner was Rebecca's subordinate.
Is this considered the God of Fire burning down his own church?
I felt a little more relaxed.
After he gave the victory gem to the girl who was ambitious and wanted to control the Frostwolf family.
The relationship between the two parties has risen to a certain height.
If he asked Rebecca for that treasure for Lorena, the other party would definitely give it to her without hesitation.
But what interested him even more was—what was Rebecca doing during this time?
It has been more than three months since the other party last left. Apart from the transaction between Flame Dragon and Rabbit, the two parties had no more contact.
Some time ago, the other party sent a message, saying that he was invited to the Ice and Snow Empire to receive the frost mine, and that he had a gift to give him.
He didn't have time to go either.
Sensing the change in Richard's expression, Lorena asked slowly.
"Master, do you have any friendship with the Frostwolf family?"
Richard smiled, briefly told the story about Rebecca, and finally said.
"The eldest daughter of the Frostwolf family has the ambition to take charge of the Frostwolf family, and she has strong execution ability, clear goals, and good skills. She is a top-notch youngster."
As the eldest daughter of a grand duke, that girl has countless people she can use.
But he still personally came to the Death Desert from the Ice and Snow Empire, and even set foot on the land of Twilight City, which is enough to explain a lot.
All kinds of actions made him quite optimistic about Rebecca, otherwise he would not invest something as precious as the Victory Gem in her.
Only then did Lorena understand.
His silver eyes narrowed and he looked sideways at the castle.
The lips moved slightly, but no sound came out.
After a while.
Pususu~
A sound of flapping wings resounded in the sky, and a large group of ferocious bats surged out of the vampire castle.
The screams that pierced the eardrums made these dark lives even more permeable.
Through the dense swarm of bats, a figure being dragged could be vaguely seen.
After a few breaths, the bat crossed the city wall and landed in front of the gap in space.
The bat flaps its wings and leaves, revealing its captive on the ground.
The robe he was wearing looked like the garbage picked up by the lowest beggar in the city-state from the sewers. There were potholes in a large area, and there were only two strands of thin silk hanging on his shoulders. It barely fell off completely, but it looked like It looks like it's crumbling, and the thin threads can't hold on much longer.
Corresponding to the tattered robe, there are disgusting scars on his body, large and small.
Some flesh and blood are still tumbling, some have scabs, and the blood is dark brown after coagulation.
His face was even covered in blood, and his stinking pale golden curly hair covered most of his face, making it difficult to see clearly.
You can vaguely sense that the other person is a middle-aged man.
The opponent was thrown to the ground heavily, but his hands were still supporting his bruised body, trying to get up.
After holding on for a long time, the veins in his neck burst out, and he reluctantly got up and sat on his knees on the ground.
He was panting heavily, and he had no energy at all.
But for such a disheveled prisoner who could die at any time, one could inexplicably feel the stubbornness exuding from him.
The other person has an unyielding soul.
The body can be killed, but the will cannot be destroyed.
After taking a few breaths, the human kneeling on the ground slowly raised his head.
Her pale golden hair swayed slightly, revealing a pair of blue eyes like the sea.
The other party's eyes were fearless and determined.
"Vampire. No matter what you do, you can't get any news from me."
"After I die, Miss Rebecca will lead the Frost Army to destroy your castle."
The intermittent weak tone was filled with the fervor of a fanatic.
As he spoke, an almost crazy smile appeared on his face.
"Escape for your life"
"A vampire exposed to the sun is nothing more than a lamb."
"So what if you are extraordinary?"
"The power of the Frostwolf family is beyond your imagination."
A prisoner whose life is controlled by others is shouting at a high-ranking vampire archduke full of darkness and cruelty to escape
This scene makes people want to laugh, but they have to admire the other party's courage.
Between life and death, there is great terror. Not everyone can face death and pain.
But this human did it.
Richard took a deep look at the prisoner, who was about forty years old, and said slowly.
"If Rebecca's subordinates have your determination and courage, the day will not be far away when she takes charge of the Frostwolf family."
"You have earned my approval, Rebekah's men."
His tone was calm, with the domineering and strong tone that only a leader in charge of a party is entitled to possess.
Hearing the subtlety in his tone, the middle-aged man's eyes moved slightly.
"Human, do you know Miss Rebecca?"
As he spoke, he glanced at Lorena beside him again, and said with a bit of sarcasm in his tone.
"That's such a shame. Miss Rebecca would associate with a human who took refuge in a vampire and turned his back on the slaves of humans!"
Vampires are pure dark beings, and they are different from other races because they like to hunt humans with sweet blood.
Therefore, in human society, vampires are well-deserved evil villains, and almost all normal people have great disgust and malice toward them.
If all evil beings such as demons, demons, undead, vampires, etc. are included, vampires are definitely one of the top detestable creatures among humans.
At this time, in his opinion, Richard was undoubtedly a despicable traitor who had taken refuge in the vampire archduke.
These people often take the initiative to assist vampires and help them open up the defenses of human city-states, so that vampires can slaughter and abuse humans wantonly.
As for Richard being Lorena's master, this idea was dismissed before it even came up.
How could a transcendent being be a subordinate in the relationship between the two parties?
Even in the Frostwolf family, where legends are at the helm, Chaofan is still one of the top figures.
In addition to her own excellence, Rebecca cannot do without the support of a powerful extraordinary person in order to receive a lot of recognition in the Frostwolf family.
Richard's eyes turned cold, but he didn't make any move yet.
Lorena's silver eyes beside her instantly turned a little scarlet.
The endless pressure was like a tsunami thousands of feet high that was rolled back into the sky and crashed down again.
The sky and the earth lose color, and everything comes to a standstill.
Creak, creak, creak~
The middle-aged man who was kneeling on the ground felt that his soul was being grasped by a giant hand and squeezed hard. The terrifying pressure made him feel unprecedented pain.
It is the pain of soul damage, which cannot be exempted or even endured
Ah~
A hysterical wail erupted from his throat, like the roar of a beast on the verge of death.
He only felt that the torture he suffered at this moment was a million times more painful than being tortured by the vampires there.
The entire person's consciousness was wiped out in pain, but the more this happened, the more turbulent and twisted the feeling of squeezing and tearing from the soul became.
ah! !
The sounds of pain gradually became weaker and even became inaudible.
Lorena's silver eyes were still watching this scene indifferently.
The heaving chest was filled with huge anger.
No one can insult her master!
Provocateurs, she will personally harvest their souls.
When Richard saw that the other party was so angry that she might die at any time, he couldn't help but waved his hand to stop Lorena.
He was just a rude human being, worthless in his eyes, but Rebecca was different.
He had placed a heavy bet on that girl.
With a wave of his hand, a force surged into the opponent's body, protecting his weak soul and making him come back to life.
After waiting for a few minutes, the middle-aged man regained consciousness.
But at this time, he was unable to support his body, lying on his side on the ground, breathing weakly.
But despite this, those eyes did not waver at all.
"Is this all your means?"
The corners of his mouth turned up, and that crazy smile appeared again.
There was some appreciation in Richard's eyes.
This perseverance is truly priceless.
If Rebecca has such subordinates in her hands, then the Frostwolf family will definitely be captured by her.
Just when she was about to speak, Lorena narrowed her eyes slightly, as if she sensed something, and then turned around to respectfully face Richard.
"Master, the trap we left in the mountains has been triggered on a large scale. It should be that the Frostwolf family's army is entering the mountains."
Before Richard could react, the middle-aged man below who barely took a breath suddenly widened his eyes and looked at Richard with an extremely incredulous look.
Lord, master? ?
Did he hear that correctly?
Is this hallucination caused by excessive weakness and pain?
That extraordinary vampire. Call that human your master? ! !
Are you kidding me? How can a human with only ten levels conquer a transcendent?
And he is also a vampire known for his brutality and bloodiness.
He felt like his brain was going to stop.
The huge shock in his heart made him feel like he almost lost his breath again.
Richard nodded and said no more nonsense.
The middle-aged man looked directly at the ground and said straightforwardly.
"Rebecca's subordinates, I am the master of Twilight City."
"You should have heard of Twilight City."
As he spoke, he glanced at the vampire castle behind him.
Countless vampires above were looking at the rift in space, and all the focus was on him.
After retracting his gaze, he continued.
"The vampires in the castle were just conquered by my subordinates. This incident was an accident."
"What is Rebecca coming here to look for?"
Twilight City?
The middle-aged man looked a little stunned, and then said tremblingly.
"Are you the Lord of Divine Grace who gave the young lady a precious treasure?"
Richard heard the temptation in his tone and said directly.
"Flame Dragon Rabbit."
"The Gem of Victory."
As soon as these words came out, the middle-aged man's face changed unpredictable, with surprise and disbelief, and finally turned into bitterness.
This Lord of Divine Grace is really the one whom the Grand Duke admires again and again!
Because of his special status, he accidentally learned about the victory gem.
This kind of treasure that can attract the arrival of the goddess of victory is a well-deserved top secret in the Frostwolf family.
Apart from the Lord of Divine Grace who presented the treasure, it is impossible for any outsider to know about it.
I thought that even if he died this time, someone would avenge him.
It seems there is no chance now.
Why is it such a coincidence this time?
So wasn't the beating he received in vain?
The middle-aged man, whose brain circuit was somewhat different, suddenly felt the scars on his body hurt even more.
At this moment, I wanted to slap myself several times.
If you had said less than a few words at that time, wouldn't it have prevented the next thing?
Thinking that it was his bad words that caused Chaofan to take action, his heart almost twitched.
After taking a few deep breaths and barely suppressing the emotions in his heart, he said this.
"Lord Richard, I offer you my most sincere apology. I did not know that this person was your subordinate."
After he paused for a few seconds and regained some strength, he finally regained his strength.
"What Miss Rebecca is looking for is quite mysterious. I don't know the details, but it is said to be related to the vampire's lost treasure."
"This treasure is the key to an ancient ruins."
"We got news that the treasure was left near this mountain range."
"So the lady came in person."
Richard became somewhat interested.
This is the second time I have heard about vampire treasures.
Turning to look at Lorena.
"What is that vampire treasure?"
Lorena's silver eyes held a hint of yearning.
"The Blood Scepter."
"The blood scepter contains the essence and blood of the first vampire in the glorious world. The other party is the ancestor of all vampires."
"He is also the only god among the vampires."
"All vampires are looking for this scepter. If you get it, you can get the blood essence of the ancestor and transform into the original vampire."
Richard's eyes moved slightly.
Newborn vampire? This title is not small. If it is true, then the value of this scepter is obviously very exaggerated.
But Rebecca just wants to open the ancient ruins. What level does that ruins have to be?
Shaking his head, he stopped thinking about it and just asked Rebecca later.
"Lorena, heal this warrior."
As he spoke, he looked at the middle-aged man lying on the ground with interest.
"I don't know your name yet."
The other party smiled bitterly.
"Bourne salutes you."
Richard looked at the other party deeply.
"I remember you, Bourne. Your fearlessness and courage are so impressive."
Bourne smiled bitterly in his heart, it didn't matter what, if he had said less, he wouldn't have suffered like this later.
The extraordinary pressure is really not something humans can bear.
Pale silver light began to escape from Lorena's side, and the majestic energy directly enveloped the opponent.
Although she has no healing skills or magic, as an extraordinary person, her control over magical energy has reached its peak.
It can be used to restore the injuries of a human being in his early 10th level with ease.
With the support of majestic energy, the flesh, flesh and bones stimulated by magic began to recover quickly.
In less than three minutes, Bourne, who had been furious just now, stood up and was able to walk freely.
After Lorena calmed down her breath, Bourne bowed again, with a solemn and respectful tone.
"I apologize to you, Your Majesty, I am ashamed of my recklessness just now."
After seeing that his breath had stabilized, Richard waved his hand without further ado and summoned a stone statue of the deceased behind him.
Let him come to Bourne.
"You ride it to find Rebecca, and just say I'm here waiting for her."
After thanking him, Bourne didn't say much nonsense. He neatly climbed onto the stone statue of the dead and then flew away in the other direction.
He was not afraid that there was fraud in it. Miss Rebecca came this time, but she held a powerful trump card.
The extraordinary is nothing but a lamb in front of it!
After Richard waited for the other party's figure to disappear, he withdrew his thoughts and looked at Lorena again.
said with great interest.
"How many treasures did you harvest in the castle this time?"
This is the highlight.
Just now, he wanted to sell his entire body just for the sake of the violent attack.
The hole created by the violent soldiers is too big, and we must make some extra money, otherwise we will not be able to bear the consumption.
Lorena felt Richard's expectation, and her tone became a little brisk.
"Because every vampire has a collection, it will take some time to count, but there are a few good treasures. You will definitely be satisfied."
Richard didn't ask about the treasure, but asked the question he was most concerned about.
"How many rare resources are estimated to be there?"
He does not lack treasures in his hands, but is extremely thirsty for resources.
"No less than 3 million units."
Richard immediately felt at ease.
3 million units are enough to support this wave of violent troops!
He looked at the army of vampires in the castle behind who were more elegant than the nobles.
His tone became relaxed.
"How strong is this vampire army?"
Apart from the resources he desperately needed, this vampire group was the biggest gain.
This is the combat effectiveness of an organized system!
It is not the least bit stronger than the scattered army.
Lorena's clear tone sounded.
"Master, there are two brigades of level 14 vampire swordsmen in the castle, with a potential of Crown 1 star."
"Level 15 blood mage, a brigade, crown 2 stars."
"Level 16 vampire hunter, 5 squadrons, 3-star crown."
"In addition, there are three vampire heroes - a level 19 vampire marquis with A-level potential, and two level 15 vampire marquis with B-level potential."
The corners of Richard's mouth immediately curved.
Calculated in this way, there are more than 3,000 crown troops! !
This power cannot be underestimated.
Even with Twilight City's current military units, they dare not say they are much stronger than the opponent.
There are also three heroes in the account, one of whom has reached level 19 and has potential A.
The most important thing is that the harvest this time was so rich, but he paid nothing.
Just sending Lorena there was all done.
At the critical moment when the crimson moon is about to rise, getting a large number of troops like pie in the sky is so damn comfortable.
If this happens eight times ten times, wouldn't Twilight City be able to take off directly?
It's best to do this kind of thing more often, he likes it.
After recovering his mind, Richard, who was still in joy, gave the order directly.
"Command the army and let all vampires return to the Twilight City immediately."
Now that the harvest has been obtained, there is no need to stay in this area any longer.
Although the castle looks gorgeous, the Twilight City is the foundation of everything.
His mind has always been clear and he knows what to be greedy and what to give up.
When Rebecca arrives, the girl he met will immediately return to the Twilight City.
Now is not the time to venture out.
After the words fell, Lorena showed a rare hesitation on her face.
"Master, we"
Richard raised his brows and looked at the other person without saying anything further, feeling the mystery behind it.
"Lorena, what's the problem?"
After Lorena organized her words, she gestured to the groggy sky.
"Master, the space around the castle is changing."
"A special plane is being integrated into the castle."
"That plane has extremely special energy that can purify the blood of the vampires."
"All vampires have benefited. Everyone is getting stronger all the time."
"If I can continue to stay, maybe my strength can be improved again."
The strange plane was integrating into the old castle, and when the Void Sandworm tried to open this area, Richard already knew about it.
But that strange plane could purify vampire blood, which surprised him a little.
The purer the blood, the more ferocious the vampire's fighting power, which is an irresistible temptation for any vampire.
But after thinking about it carefully, he realized something was wrong.
Rebecca is looking for the Blood Clan's treasure - the Blood Scepter, with the purpose of opening the door to an ancient ruins.
The area the other party was searching for was the Vampire Castle.
Now there is the matter of the escape of the breath from the alien plane to purify the blood of all vampires. And inside the blood scepter, the essence and blood of the first vampire is hidden.
These series of events are obviously strongly connected. (End of chapter)
