Death Notice

Chapter 68: Stephen's ambition

Views:

"You..." Baron Albert's eyes widened in surprise.

"Hehe, everyone is here! Princess Elizabeth, father, Bonny, Laura, my Little Leah!" The figure slowly landed, and the bat wings behind him were retracted, and it slowly melted into the body.

"You are Stephen... Stephen Albert?" Nova whispered, looking at the young man in front of her in shock, "Another undead creature from Albert's family is like this!"

"Aunt Nova? Long time no see!" Stephen grinned and said lightly.

"What happened more than a year ago? You just said that you should answer the matter about Little Leah?" Maier asked vigilantly, feeling uneasy in his heart.

"As the heir to the baron, I have long known the secrets of the family. Of course, each generation of Baron Albert had to sacrifice himself and sign a contract with undead creatures as a summoner. However, I and the members of the Albert family These idiots are different!" Stephen glanced at his family and said lightly.

"Being an immortal is indeed a good thing, but I don't have the great ideal of protecting the human world, and I don't want to be bound by a servant contract. In a chance encounter, I met Mary at the edge of the Maya forest. Claire, what's interesting is that this Maiya witch actually moved her heart, hoping to restore the lives of ordinary humans."

A sneer appeared on the corner of Stephen's mouth, and he recalled with blank eyes, "Hehe, this little idiot Nina thought that she was hiding her ugly appearance, so I didn't know her identity. However, I didn't expose her. My chance, a chance to become an undead without being bound by the Albert family... "

All the exorcists looked at this young man with a gloomy expression, and felt a chill in their hearts. In Stephen's self-report, the incident more than a year ago was finally fully revealed.

"Actually, even Princess Elizabeth and my father didn't really understand the whole story." Stephen said with a smile.

"They thought it was Nina who wanted to transform Miller into an undead, but it turned out that Miller fell ill because of the blood of the Albert family. In fact, the person who wanted to transform Miller into an undead was neither Nina nor Elizabeth. Princess, but someone else!"

Stephen turned his head, smiled towards the corner of the banquet hall, "You're right! Sister Laura... Oh, no, Aunt Laura!"

Miss Laura! Qin Lun raised his eyebrows, and followed everyone to look at Laura. This subsequent change is really...unexpected! It seems that although he has grasped the general context of the incident, the details are still not complete.

Laura ignored Stephen and everyone's gaze, just squatted down and looked at Miller, and asked softly, "Little guy, do you blame me?"

"No!" Miller shook his little head and threw himself into Laura's arms.

Laura showed a sweet smile, hugged Millet happily, bowed slightly to Elizabeth, and said softly: "I'm sorry, Princess Elizabeth, I can't be as strong as you. After becoming an undead, only thirty years later, I have I can no longer bear the loss of my loved ones. Little Le... No matter what, I can't watch Little Le grow old and die like Thomas... "

"Haha, Aunt Laura, have you made up your mind? It's the same question from more than a year ago, are you willing to leave the Albert family with me?" Stephen asked with a glimmer of excitement on his face.

"Stephen, I'm different from you, I just want to protect Xiao Le!" Laura said expressionlessly.

"Laura..." Elizabeth's little face showed a trace of sadness, and she already realized what was going to happen next.

"Laura...my sister!" Baron Thomas Albert looked at Laura with complicated eyes, "Stephen didn't sign a servant contract, I can't control him. However, I will never allow you to leave here, Little Leah is here After this matter is over, you must also sign a contract with me!"

"I know, brother!" Laura lowered her eyelids, with a look of pain on her face, "As the controller of the contract, you can control me, but you can't control my descendants... Kill him!"

"Thomas, be careful!" Ms. Nova suddenly widened her eyes, looking behind the baron in horror.

"Pfft!" Before Baron Albert could react, he felt a chill in his heart, and a bloody knife tip pierced through his heart, protruding from his left chest.

"You... Jason!" Baron Albert spat out a mouthful of blood, turned his head to look at the old butler behind him in disbelief, and slowly collapsed to the ground.

"I'm sorry, Thomas, I can't go against my master's wishes!" Jason, the old butler, limped on one leg and shook his head with a wry smile, "Dr. Stan is right, Thomas, you can't afford it, or the Albert family can't afford it This kind of responsibility. Lorenzo Albert is wrong, and the believers of the Immortals are right. No matter what the reason is, that is not the power that human beings can keep in private!"

"Hahaha! Well done, Jason! The controller of the contract is dead. How about you, rush out with me, or stay here and wait for the exorcist to purify you!" Stephen looked up to the sky and laughed, his blond hair fluttering, pointing Looking at the castle servants in the banquet hall, he said, "We will start a new era for mankind!"

Looking at Baron Albert lying in a pool of blood, a trace of bewilderment appeared on the faces of the castle servants. A trace of grief and indignation slowly surfaced on the faces of most of the people, while the eyes of a few others flickered and retreated towards the French windows at the edge of the hall.

"If the rebels die, kneel down, the exorcist organization will arrange new contractors for you!" Qin Lun's gloomy voice came from behind, looking at Stephen and the castle servants in front of him, all the exorcists including Boni The man slowly clenched the weapon in his hand.

"Kill them!" Stephen flapped his wings behind him, and rushed towards the exorcist first.

"Aw!" There were many inhuman roars in the banquet hall. Looking at Miss Laura who had transformed into a silver-white giant wolf, Qin Lun sighed softly, turned around and left the banquet hall without looking back. Run down the corridor.

At this time, there was already a lot of noise on the lower floors of the banquet hall, and the townspeople were rushing towards the upper floors of the castle...

"Apostle No. 70053, you have witnessed a key historical node, and the satellite-level plot has improved the plot quality. Witnessed the historical node of the root cause of the disease in the Odia region, and the plot quality has been upgraded to a planetary level. Witness the two dark ancestors who opened the dark era of this world, the werewolves The ancestor - Laura Albert, the ancestor of the vampire - Stephen Albert, the plot quality has been upgraded to a stellar level."

"Reminder: Due to the personal witness of the 70053 apostle and the change of history, the exorcist organization discovered the seriousness of the Dark Era in advance, eliminated a large number of second and third generation werewolves and blood races, greatly reduced the history of the Dark Era, and robbed the world of 51 points from the broken starry sky. "

"Reminder: Broken Starry Sky will calculate the world exploration reward based on the plundered world source when the apostle returns, and increase the task evaluation by an appropriate amount!"

Looking at the large number of reminders appearing on the death list, Qin Lun shrugged his shoulders and quickened his running pace. There are too few exorcists in the banquet hall. Although ordinary townspeople can help the exorcists win this battle, they absolutely cannot intercept all werewolves and vampires.

In particular, the two ancestors, Laura and Stephen, are estimated to be able to escape from Albert Castle. As for the lives and deaths of others, it is unpredictable. Millet Le is too weak, and it is very likely that he will die in the chaos.

As for Elizabeth... Qin Lun's eyes flashed, and for the first time a trace of regret appeared on his face. This undead princess probably wouldn't run away. He had seen in the banquet hall that Elizabeth had a will to die, or that after she became an undead, she had already turned into a walking dead.

The first generation of Baron Albert made this eight-year-old girl bear too many burdens. "A thousand years of responsibility, a thousand years of protection, and a thousand years of glory", in Qin Lun's view, it is more like a thousand years of sorrow.

The lion of Odia, Lorenzo Albert, did not know what he was doing, and in a sense it was equivalent to burying his little daughter.

It is an unsolvable paradox to oppose the exorcist's belief in immortality while protecting the exorcist's ideal with an immortal body. Lorenzo's ideal is great, and it is also the foundation that supports Elizabeth in fighting against the nightmare in the cycle of death of her family and relatives.

However, today's events show that Lorenzo did something wrong, and the foundation of this belief has collapsed. Even if the exorcist organization did not punish Elizabeth out of respect for Lorenzo, she would not be able to survive.

Qin Lun could understand Elizabeth's sorrow, but he couldn't. He has no people and things worth remembering, and he will not feel sad about the death of the identity person. In fact, many times, the people around him were killed by him. Even Frank's death was only his first taste of anger, not sadness, about a violation of dignity.

In the eyes of the murderer, there is nothing wrong with being a bystander. Curiosity for mysterious events and new things is the driving force for his survival.

Qin Lun soon saw the townspeople who broke into Albert Castle. He wisely hid in a guest room, took off his dress, and walked out of the room wearing only his undershirt, disguising himself as an ordinary townsman.

The doctor continued to walk against the flow of people to the lower level of the castle, but as he approached the gate of the castle, his actions were hindered more and more.

It wasn't that the townspeople doubted his identity, but that there were too many people under the castle. With the passage of time, leaving aside the hundreds of townspeople who just broke into the castle, there are still countless Odia civilians coming one after another on the mountain road, almost blocking the entire castle. Uncontrollable developments.

After Qin Lun squeezed out of the main hall gate of the main castle, he finally felt relieved. After panting profusely with sweat, he continued to swim upstream towards the stone bridge outside the fort.

Among the crowd, Qin Lun suddenly raised his eyebrows and looked up in surprise. At the far end of his front left, a dazed and familiar figure came into the doctor's field of vision.
