The Original Vampire

After nightfall, the temperature begins to drop.

Spring nights in the north are also quite cold.

In the camp, the soldiers lit bonfires to warm and boil water for cooking.

At the same time, they started chatting.

The content, of course, is the meeting of the two marquis during the day, the whip of Marquis Garcia, and the cry of Marquis Charles.

Colin quietly wandered among these soldiers, listening to their gossip.

Then he suddenly discovered that the attitude of these soldiers towards Marquis Charles had unexpectedly changed.

Before today, these soldiers, especially the defeated soldiers who escaped from the Mirror Lake battlefield, had an extremely poor attitude towards the Marquis of Charles.

Contempt, hate, scorn.

It is not surprising that a defeated general has such a notorious reputation.

What's more, the Marquis of Charles also launched an emergency call-up order and used the recruited people as cannon fodder bait.

It can be said that if he was not the eldest son of the Duke, and if it were not for the reputation of the Saint Hilde family in the north, Marquis Charles would have been eaten alive by these angry soldiers.

However, the cry of Marquis Charles during the day seemed to gradually turn public opinion.

Colin listened carefully to the discussions of the soldiers and gradually came to his senses.

He didn't know whether the cry of Marquis Charles was a show of true feelings or a political show.

However, it is somewhat of Liu Da'er's demeanor.

That person is the expert in this area, the more you cry, the more popular you are.

In addition, about the whip of Marquis Garcia, Colin now thinks it is very meaningful.

At that time, Colin's first feeling about this was only two words - domineering!

This whip was not only the Marquis Charles, but also the Duke of St. Hilde's face.

Colin originally thought that this was Marquis Garcia venting his dissatisfaction with the Duke. After all, this fiasco was ultimately because the Duke hid the Black Cavalry in the snow.

But now that I think about it, it also means helping Marquis Charles to get rid of the blame-I have already whipped him in public, so you should stop resenting him.

That's probably what it means.

From this point of view, Marquis Garcia actually means to take care of Marquis Charles...

Colin was thinking wildly when suddenly a soldier came behind him:

"Knight Colin, Lord Marquis Charles, please!"

Colin was stunned for a while, obviously not expecting the Marquis to come to him.

"Okay, please lead the way."

While thinking about why Marquis Charles was looking for him, Colin followed the soldiers all the way to a luxury tent in the center of the camp.

"Meet the Marquis!" As the first heir to the loyal lord of the Angele family, Marquis Charles is qualified to accept Colin's kneeling.

"Knight Colin, please get up!"

Marquis Charles stepped forward quickly and pulled Colin up affectionately.

The Marquis looked to be in his thirties, his face was weathered, and his naked upper body was covered with bandages.

However, Colin didn't care about that either.

He is not one of those big bosses. The superiors can get their forgiveness and sympathy by crying a few times.

"I don't know what orders the Lord Marquis came to me with?" Colin asked without a trace, getting rid of Marquis Charles' overly enthusiastic hands, and asked.

Marquis Charles did not answer immediately, but turned around and took a two-handed sword from the guard, and solemnly handed it to Colin.

"Sorry, Knight Colin, your father, Baron Angele... unfortunately died on the front line... It's all my fault... This is his saber, please... condolences!"

Marquis Charles said, but he choked up again.

Colin had to admire each other's acting skills, and the tears came as soon as he said it, much stronger than some dead fish-faced little fresh meat.

"Lord Marquis, don't do this! Father died for the country. It is his honor, not your fault."

Colin also worked hard to squeeze out a few tears, with an impassioned expression on his face: "I swear that I will kill all the invading trolls and avenge my father! Lord Marquis, please give me this opportunity!"

Marquis Charles' eyes lit up, obviously not expecting Colin to be so knowledgeable and cooperative.

He grabbed Colin's hands and said loudly, "Don't worry, knight Colin! I promise you, I will kill all these damn trolls to avenge Baron Angele and other sacrificed northern soldiers! "

Ke Lin resisted the nausea in his heart: "Thank you, Lord Marquis!"

"This is what I should do, Knight Colin!"

The two held hands and looked at each other with tears in their eyes, and the atmosphere gradually became a bit basic...

It took a long time for the two movie stars to calm down from the atmosphere just now.

Marquis Charles packed up his mood and took Colin to sit down together: "Knight Colin, I heard Vera tell you about your escape experience, so I also want to represent my father, on behalf of the Saint Hilde family, thank you for protecting Wei Pull from the trolls!"

"This is what I should do."

Marquis Charles nodded, but his tone was suddenly ambiguous:

"Knight Colin, from what my sister said, I can clearly feel that she values ​​you, and I heard that she personally begged Archbishop Raven to treat you with pure holy water, haha, over the years, I have never Seeing my sister pay so much attention to other men."

"I can't repay Miss Vera's kindness!"

Only then did Colin understand that the marquis probably saw his military talent from Vera's narrative, and that's why he made this move to buy people's hearts.

However, if the Marquis Charles extended an olive branch to him before this battle, then Colin would not hesitate to give his allegiance.

But now, Colin would not easily get on this broken ship that was in danger of overturning.

"However, Knight Colin, even if you inherit the baron position of the Angele family and want to marry my sister, I'm afraid..." Marquis Charles continued, with a bit of heart and soul.

"Lord Marquis, how dare I have such thoughts! Miss Vera is a goddess-like figure, how dare I blaspheme!" Colin would not admit that he had such thoughts.

"Haha, Knight Colin, you don't have to be so selfish!" Marquis Charles smiled and waved his hand. "With your talent, you will definitely be able to make achievements on the battlefield, and it is not difficult to be promoted to the title."

"Lord Marquis, you have won the prize. Fighting for the North is my long-cherished wish, and I dare not hope for more."

Colin was a little contemptuous in his heart. This marquis actually used his sister as a bargaining chip to buy people's hearts. No matter how he looked at it, he couldn't make it to the top.

What's more, Colin didn't believe that Marquis Charles had much say in Vera's marriage.

Of course, Marquis Charles may not really want to help Colin marry his sister.

The promise of this kind of politician is just as unreliable as the boss's "work hard, I will definitely give you a promotion and a raise in the future".

Therefore, Colin was flattered on the surface, and even showed some attachment, but he was secretly vigilant.

The Marquis of Charles did not seem to see Colin's perfunctory, and still treated him warmly.

The two chatted for a long time, and it was a great idea to meet each other late.

It was not until late at night that Colin got up to leave.

The Marquis of Charles personally sent him outside the camp.

Just as Colin bowed and saluted to say goodbye, Marquis Charles suddenly looked behind Colin and said in surprise:

"Huh? Sister, it's so late, you haven't slept yet!"
