The prince of the Vatican family failed to pronounce the name of the inanimate king in full, and was cut to pieces on the spot by the former's sharp claws.
"This is enough!"
Ye Qi looked at the traces that were enough to show that it was a vampire fighting, nodded in satisfaction, and then pointed to the old castle that was still in the shadows ahead - at least, with such traces, it would only make the vampires think it was a vampire. The battle between the 'Cappadocia' family and the Vanjo family, without thinking of anything else, and this is quite important for them who need to temporarily hide their identities.
Although this time is only one or two hours, sometimes, one or two seconds can change the direction of an original matter.
"There's going to be a reception-like dinner, and at that point those two guys will be on!"
Said the inanimate king.
"Well, I hope as soon as possible, I'm not used to this kind of negative energy!"
As Ye Qi walked, feeling the more and more negative energy around him, he shrugged his shoulders and said - the closer to the castle in the shadows, the stronger the negative energy. Ye Qi could even estimate that he The temperature at the current location is about ten degrees below zero, and this distance is only half of the distance from the old castle.
However, at this distance, the castle in the shadows completely appeared in the eyes of Ye Qi and the big man—
A very traditional castle, built on the mountainside, the tallest spire is at least twenty yards higher than the top of the mountain below, and the thick city wall, and the suspension bridge that is admitted to be hung by thigh-thick chains, except for the Except for the unfamiliar banners and tapestries hanging from some windows, everything was no different from some old castles Ye Qi had seen in Lorant.
Those spiers that look like wizard towers inherit some of the unique styles of the Dark Ages, while the thick walls are the style of the bloody and chaotic era. At that time, in order to protect themselves, the human nobles had to move the castle they lived in, time and time again. Heightened and thickened. Let it have excellent defense and can accommodate more food, guards, etc.
Just like the tallest minaret, if normal humans live there, there will be several more similar sentry towers on the top of the mountain as support, and if there are enough people, there will be a barracks there again . As a reserve force to help defend the castle, even some wounded soldiers will show up there.
After all, there is a castle in front and a cliff behind, so it is safe enough there.
Of course, all this is only for humans.
As for vampires
Mystery aside. Besides showing off, Ye Qi didn't think the other party had other reasons.
Their own strength is far stronger than that of ordinary people, so that they don't need to rely on these at all—although some books describe the love of vampires for castles, but after contacting some vampires among humans, Ye Qi always thinks that only If you need something darker, the castle is obviously a luxury, and the sewers, cemeteries and other places are the first choice.
perhaps. It seems a bit exaggerated to say this, but this is the living state of most vampires on Lorant.
Except for some persons in charge with titles and better conditions, the remaining vampires are always like the most disgusting existence on the streets, wandering around, looking for targets to attack.
However, the castle in front of him is definitely the most traditional vampire known to people.
woo, woo...
A long-horned snail. With the appearance of Ye Qi, the big man and the lifeless king, it was blown.
In addition to welcome, it also represents an attitude: a reward for the first arrival.
Although Ye Qi hated such insubstantial rewards, the envious eyes of the vampire attendants and the vampires who followed behind him made him understand. It's not all pointless.
It should be related to the resources allocated by the family and some power enjoyed by the family in the future!
Ye Qi thought so, then shrugged helplessly.
If he is really the Grand Duke of the so-called 'Cappadocia'. He must be very satisfied with such a harvest; however, unfortunately, he is not.
"Prince and Grand Duke of Cappadocia, please follow me!"
A vampire servant acted as a guide, leading Ye Qi, the big man, and the lifeless king into the castle—before, they were standing in an open space in front of the drawbridge of the castle.
Squeak, squeak... bang!
Under the action of the winch, the chain made a tooth-piercing movement, and it didn't stop until the entire suspension bridge fell down.
Then, a group of gorgeously dressed and handsome-faced vampires came out, stood on both sides of the suspension bridge, and bowed to Ye Qi and his party who walked onto the suspension bridge—undoubtedly, this was also a reward for the first place; When the later vampires walked up the suspension bridge again, this group of gorgeously dressed and handsome vampires ignored them at all and just stood upright.
The suspension bridge seems to be made of log nails one by one, but the feeling of stability under the feet, as well as the creak of the winch and the final landing sound when the suspension bridge was lowered, clearly told Ye Qi that this seemingly The suspension bridge is made of solid wood, but it is actually entirely made of metal, except that it is painted with a misleading paint on the outside.
And as Ye Qi walked in, he keenly discovered that not only the suspension bridge, but also the entire stone-like castle.
At the same time, he searched for a long time, but the hidden aura also showed a clue.
Obviously, the two ancestors of vampires relied on the castle in front of them to hide themselves—Ye Qi, who had locked on to the target, subconsciously looked at the nearby castle, feeling the fluctuations of negative energy; Undoubtedly, the reason why this metal castle can hide its aura is that apart from the special material and the special paint, this method of hiding itself in negative energy is also necessary.
It's like, if you hide a leaf, the forest is the best hiding place; if you hide a drop of water, then the sea is naturally the best hiding place.
And if you are an existence living in negative energy, then what is the better hidden method of combining your own negative energy breath with the negative energy breath in the demiplane
In this regard, Ye Qi was very thankful that he and his party were careful.
Because, in this kind of hiding, the other party's perception is quite sharp, almost keeping the situation of the entire demiplane under his eyes, and if there is any disturbance, it will definitely be discovered.
Ye Qi was definitely not the only one who discovered this. The inanimate king who was walking forward paused slightly, and then continued to move forward - although this movement was only for a moment, it was nothing in the eyes of others, but Ye Qi, who was standing behind the inanimate king, knew His allies also noticed the strangeness of the castle in front of him.
and. Ye Qi was certain that this castle only appeared after his ally failed in the assassination.
Otherwise, given the particularity of this ancient castle, it is impossible for the inanimate king to keep silent—in fact, in order to increase the success rate, the inanimate king told everything about the 'Bloodland' in great detail. Ye Qi. However, such detailed information is undoubtedly a bit outdated from the current point of view.
After walking across the suspension bridge and standing in the doorway of the castle gate, Ye Qi and his party stopped, not because of any accident. Instead, they needed to change their clothes and shoes—although they were not stained with rain or mud, the two ancestors of vampires obviously didn't want any stains to appear in front of them.
It’s not just about changing clothes and shoes. From the moment they walked into this doorway, the rain on the outside had already been blocked out. In front of their eyes was a red carpet leading directly to the castle hall, and bursts of wonderful music were coming from the hall— Apparently, the so-called banquet. Ready to start.
Ye Qi, the big man and the lifeless king, without the slightest meaning, changed into the clothes in front of them.
Although Ye Qi was very dissatisfied with this pickpocketing approach, but he was able to make clothes that perfectly fit their figures in such a short period of time. Ye Qi also had to admire; you know, the other party definitely didn't come over with a tailor's ruler to measure them one by one, and he could judge by looking closely at them, this is the first time he entered the 'land of blood'. Their stature, and their extraordinary propriety, are obviously to be admired.
It is similar to the dress of a certain country in the bloody age. Although it is a bit procrastinating to wear on the body, it does not appear to be more cumbersome. Ye Qi looked at the big man and the lifeless king of his friend. The big man obviously has something for such a dress. Not suitable, after pulling the corner of the collar several times, I tried my best not to show any uncomfortable expression.
As for the inanimate king
As a vampire, even a vampire who experienced that era, the inanimate king didn't feel awkward at all, and even a memory appeared on his face.
'This is the dress of the Sollo Principality, which inherits certain styles of the Nozan Empire, and is very valuable for collection! '
Noticing Ye Qi's gaze, the inanimate king introduced.
'I'm not good at collecting... Besides, our goal is not this dress! '
Ye Qi made a gesture, and then looked towards the hall ahead.
'certainly! '
For Ye Qi who couldn't understand his own humor, the inanimate king didn't continue, but walked to the hall first.
After Ye Qi and his party left, the following vampires began to change their clothes and shoes.
Obviously, this is also the privilege for Ye Qi and his party to get the first place.
The vampires who were changing their clothes and shoes looked at the prince and grand duke of 'Cappadocia' who had gone away with envious and jealous eyes, and involuntarily speeded up.
However, when moving forward rapidly, they kept a considerable distance between them in units of clans and families.
This distance has not changed until entering the hall of the castle.
The one who keeps the longest distance is naturally the mysterious and powerful 'Cappadocia' family. When the prince of the Fanzhuo family died tragically on the mountainside.
This unscrupulous behavior style is enough to make most vampires understand what they should do.
Of course, only the vast majority—
The prince of the Lesemba family looked at 'Cappadocia' standing in the distance, and after a sneer in his heart, he raised his hand to beckon a vampire attendant, whispered something in the other's ear, and then , the vampire waiter quickly left the hall and walked towards the depths of the castle.
All of this was seen by the vampires around.
And in the next moment, they looked at the 'Cappadocia' prince and grand duke's eyes full of gloating.
If it is necessary to divide the vampires into some factions, the so-called secret party represented by the Fanzhuo family, and the demon party represented by Lesemba. As well as some neutral factions, they are relatively traditional factions, but as time goes by, especially when only two of the original thirteen clan ancestors remained, everything changed.
Of the thirteen clan ancestors, only Fanzhuo and Lesemba are left, so they are among the vampires. The Fanzhuo family and the Lesemba family have also become their respective leaders.
Of course, there are also open and secret struggles.
Just like the dead Prince Fanzhuo and the prince of the Lesemba family in front of him, the struggle between the two sides has been going on for a hundred years.
It's just that all of them are mutually beneficial and not decisive.
But, today. Prince Lesemba was extremely happy, because his old opponent died. Although he didn't do it himself, it was enough to make him excited.
After all, this represents its victory.
Of course, if you win, you need to be thorough!
"The number one should belong to our Lesemba family. It's not some country bumpkin who appears randomly!"
Prince Lesemba looked at the Prince and Grand Duke of 'Cappadocia' in the distance, thinking secretly in his heart, and then began to silently count the time.
Because, it is very clear that the death of the current Prince Fanzhuo will definitely not just be forgotten.
You know, the two ancestors who are now in charge of the blood clan are Fanzhuo and Lesemba!
so. It is very clear about the final fate of these country bumpkins, and after that, it will be the time for it to welcome the victory—what could make it happier than the death of its old opponent and becoming the number one at the "Bloodland" banquet thing
Maybe there will be in the future!
but now. This is undoubtedly the most exciting thing about it.
Similarly, the vampires around also understand what the prince of the Lesumba family is planning; however, they will never remind the prince and grand duke of 'Cappadocia'. Even, they can't wait for the 'Cappadocia' family to be completely destroyed in the anger of the Vanjo family.
For any existence, one less competitor will always make him feel comfortable.
Waiting with ulterior motives swept away the relaxation before the banquet, and a kind of tension that was about to come appeared on these vampires.
Of course, it's just these vampires, absolutely not including Ye Qi and his party.
In fact, regarding this, Ye Qi included, they wished for this—
'Finally you don't need to continue to pretend! '
Ye Qi showed a smile, celebrating that he had broken away from such a seemingly miraculous but actually lame disguise; after all, a human being is still human no matter how much he pretends to be, and it is impossible to become a real vampire; unless he is like his wife , chameleons generally have special abilities.
However, even with special abilities, some flaws still exist.
The easiest: eat!
The food of vampires is blood, while the food of humans is vegetables, grains and meat—Ye Qi can swing a knife without caring about the splash of blood.
But this does not mean that Ye Qi can drink it calmly.
Therefore, when he walked into the hall where the banquet was about to be held and smelled the strong smell of blood, he knew that if he continued, he would definitely be exposed.
The big man nodded, expressing his approval.
Obviously, the big man, like Ye Qi, also has considerable resistance to drinking blood, and he is eager to have other "assistance" appear.
'This is similar to our plan—however, as far as I know, those two guys will never get involved in such a thing... In other words, we are still facing the sixth generation of vampires! '
The inanimate king expressed indifference, and at the same time, reminded Ye Qi.
'Don't tell me, you can't find those two guys here? '
Ye Qi asked back.
'of course not! '
The inanimate king's answer was very positive.
'So what are we waiting for? Darlan, I'm leaving this place to you for the time being, we'll go back as soon as we go! '
Ye Qi pointed to the side, and after signaling to his friend, he walked towards the sofa on the side of the hall - there is a screen here, which is enough to block the sight of the vampires, not to mention, there is Dahl standing there like a guard. Lan attracts attention, Ye Qi and the inanimate king's departure is completely unnoticed.
…
Leaving the brightly lit hall, the darkness became the main color in front of him in an instant, and there were screams that made the scalp tingle from a certain corner where negative energy gathered.
Ye Qi's expressionless and inanimate king walked quickly, completely ignoring the unconscious roars of those ghosts.
As for how these ghosts came from
As the main ingredient in the vampire recipe, it is not very strange that human ghosts appear here.
Of course, this number is a bit too much.
Ye Qi looked at the layers of white figures at the corner, and couldn't help raising his eyebrows—obviously, because of the abundant negative energy in the blood field, the ghosts accumulated over time exceeded Ye Qi's imagination.
snort!
Ye Qi let out a cold snort full of killing intent.
The lifeless king on the side smiled indifferently.
Afterwards, the two figures descended the stairs and disappeared into the corridor of the castle.
