A strange world

Chapter 765 Chapter 162. Tryst on the Covered Bridge

It is true to let go of the spy, but it is false to punish the blood slaves.

The seemingly terrifying scarlet blood flame is just Tina's illusion, and the burning of the blood slave is just a black shell formed outside the body... No vampire was harmed in this performance.

Except for the frightened undercovers. If you look closely, you will see that they are trembling with their heads lowered.

The Scarlet Queen's powers are still there... and her temper is still the same!

Annan let go of the Scarlet Queen, letting Lucy hold the queen, and letting Dracula carry away the blood slave who was pretending to be dead.

The play was a complete success. Within a few days, the opposition to the theater disappeared and the outside world became more honest. But it won't last long... Vampires are evil and suspicious by nature. Unless they see it with their own eyes, those big shots will never let the Scarlet Queen rise.

The Scarlet Queen delegated power to Annan - no one had as many ideas as he did.

This is indeed the case. Even if he focuses on filming, Annan's little ideas from time to time still always lead his enemies into the ditch.

For example, in the "Make the Stewart Family Great Again" plan, Annan first asked the bard to train a group of servants and teach them the story of the Scarlet Queen's past rule of the Blood Parliament. They were assigned to thirteen cities and publicized everywhere.

Then, invitations were sent out, inviting those vampires who had been allies and vassals, and who had helped the Stuart family when they were in trouble without adding insult to injury.

In addition to them, there are also Skeleton King and Williams, the patriarch of the Morel family, who have been in the basement.

"I know there have been many rumors from the outside world..."

The Scarlet Queen looked down at the guests, and the arrogance deep in her soul made most of the guests who had witnessed the Queen's power in the past feel nostalgic.

Annan, who was holding the Queen's hand, took advantage of this to release the innate spell for the third time - Annan had almost found the rules of the innate spell. It was the same as casting spells by himself. Whatever he touched, he would release the type of spell. If not, various effects would be released. A random one.

Compared to what they had known for a long time that "the Scarlet Queen's strength is still there", what surprised them more was that the patriarch of the Morel family, Prince Williams, was called Ancestor Annan...

That night, a piece of news quietly spread from the Stuart family... Annan was the reincarnation of Prince Lydia's lover thousands of years ago, and the ancestor of the Morel family.

There was no reason for this news, just like a made-up joke, but everyone said that they saw Prince Williams respectfully calling Annan his ancestor.

As the rumors gradually fermented and intensified, Prince Williams, who was a guest at the Blood Parliament, personally stood up to refute the rumors: "This is a rumor! I didn't use a respectful tone at all!"

Then they knew that Annan was really his ancestor's lover.

Those traditional vampires who were originally hostile to Annan changed their minds and regarded Annan as half of their own people and offered their support.

The feedback of this support to the theater is that the revenue, which was already close to stable, has increased significantly, and the theater is overcrowded.

The Scarlet Queen's enemies gave up prying and instead focused on the countervailing magical image.

The plan to "make the Stewarts great again" ended with Annan proposing a renovation of the Stewart family estate. For this reason, he invited Yili over and introduced it to the Scarlet Queen: "The plan of Liberty City was designed by Master Yili himself, and it is of high quality and low price!"

The Stuart family occupies a large area. There is a lake behind the manor, but it has turned black because it has been abandoned for too long. The devil vines climbing on the outer walls of the castle extend into the water and grow wantonly, covering the entire area like dead hair. The small lake exudes a disgusting rotten smell all day long.

Vampires just don't like sunlight, but that doesn't mean they have to live in dark, dirty places.

The designer is from Liberty City, the materials are from Liberty City, the workers are from Liberty City, and the money is from the Stuart family...

The Scarlet Queen initially thought that Annan just wanted to make money, but the manor did become lively with their arrival, and after the devil's vines were cut off, the damaged wall tiles were replaced, the weeds on the lake were salvaged, and the corridors that once collapsed and were submerged in the lake The bridge was rebuilt, and the Stuart family restored its former scenery bit by bit... The Scarlet Queen no longer objected and generously paid the full price.

Late at night when the covered bridge in the lake was built, the Scarlet Queen seemed to have made some kind of decision and asked Annan to go to the covered bridge...only for him.

Late at night...or early in the morning...in short, in a place of eternal night where time can't be distinguished, Annan stepped onto the water covered bridge.

Arriving at the center of the covered bridge with the rippling ripples of the lake surface, the Scarlet Queen stood there, her rose-red dress sweeping the floor.

She took the wooden box that Annan had taken out from the mine a while ago and opened the lid.

The ancient horn lay quietly at the bottom of the box. The Scarlet Queen's fingertips brushed against it, and a sound of horns from ancient times suddenly sounded. Annan's eyes gradually became confused...

"I want to ask you some questions."

The Scarlet Queen's voice suddenly woke Annan up, and he realized what had happened, and continued to pretend to be affected, maintaining a confused look.

"You have done so much for the Stewart family, what is your purpose?"

"I have no purpose, I just want to help Lian Na."

"Do you like Lina?"

"I like it. She is my good friend and I want to help her."

"What do you want from the Stewart family?"

"I don't want to get anything..." Annan was silent for a while, feeling that there were some loopholes, and then added, "If possible, I hope to form an alliance with you to protect the Street family."

"Protect?"

"Your recovery will take time. The Crimson Princess is still very immature, and the Stuart family is not strong enough... I will not be relieved until you return to the Blood Parliament."

The Scarlet Queen's red lips twitched slightly, then she finally gave up asking any more questions and closed the lid of the box.

With this movement, Annan's eyes gradually returned to clarity.

"It is a family treasure. Thank you for bringing it to me." The Scarlet Queen said, seemingly just giving Annan a look at the treasure.

"You're too kind." Annan chuckled, "It didn't take much effort for me to get it."

Facing those clear and pure black eyes, the Scarlet Queen was a little silent. Out of guilt or touch, she suddenly whispered: "Are you curious about my past?"

Annan said happily: "Who is not curious about the past of the Scarlet Queen who once nearly ruled the Blood Parliament?"

"That was when I was little..."

Annan was perhaps the first person to hear the Scarlet Queen's story. Like all legendary stories, the Scarlet Queen's growth is also full of setbacks.

Betrayal, pain, revenge, killing...

The title of Scarlet Queen is just like her title of "Champion Warlock", which she earned through hard work.

But there has been no sign of Lina's father.

Annan couldn't help but wonder: "How did you and Lian Na's father meet?"

"I do not have a husband."

Annan was slightly startled: "Nalena..."

"She is the offspring given to me by the goddess of love..."
