Tome of Blood

This is a majestic palace.

A black curtain enveloped the surroundings, making the already dark palace even more depressing. Under the curtain, a rectangular table was placed in the palace, with quaint stone seats on both sides.

Several tall fuzzy phantoms sat on both sides of the long table, their faces could not be seen clearly, only the scarlet eyes shone with a deep light in the illusory curtain.

Suddenly, on the stone seat on the side of the long table, a dark red light bloomed slightly.

Accompanied by a burst of spatial distortion, a new tall phantom slowly solidified in front of the long table.

Seeing the new tall phantom, many phantoms in front of the long table bowed their heads slightly and bowed respectfully to him:

"Lord Earl Hall."

Only the two phantoms at the front of the long table just glanced at the new tall phantom and nodded slightly.

"Earl Hall... You joined the club a little too slowly this time."

A figure at the front spoke softly, the voice was majestic and mighty, with a hint of dissatisfaction.

"Earl Hall" was silent for a moment, and said in a thick and authentic voice:

"Your Excellency Earl Urst, this temporary meeting was too hasty, and I didn't have time to prepare, so it was quite late."

"Earl Hall" is naturally La Haile in disguise.

However, at this moment, Lahair's heart was not as calm as he pretended to be.

While manipulating the illusory figure to talk to the Earl of the Ness clan, he couldn't help looking at the figure sitting on the Blood Throne behind him.

Beside him, Agnes who kept the communication running while touching the illusory crystal was already dumbfounded.

She had to be dumbfounded.

Although the girl knew that her sneaking behavior would go bankrupt the moment Charlotte opened her spiritual world, but when she and Rachel formally activated the crystal and joined the club under the disguise of their identities, she realized that the other party's strength was stronger than she imagined. It's even more outrageous...

Without him, Lahaier didn't consciously enter the communication crystal as usual, but directly realized the illusory venue of the communication crystal!

At this moment, above the communication crystal, the crimson mist will appear like a projection on the scene, just like being there.

As if a three-dimensional video conference was held, the majestic palace descended in the spiritual world, the phantom of the Ness blood clan and the disguised figure of Lahaile appeared at the same time, and Agnes and others were projecting like onlookers. looked out at them.

Including La Haier who operated the phantom of joining the club.

And judging from the scarlet eyes of those blood races at the meeting place, they seemed to have completely ignored that this online meeting had been projected into their spiritual world by an existence, and they didn't notice the three guys who were watching their meeting .

This secret online meeting was abruptly projected into a three-dimensional "movie" for Charlotte!

"Don't be nervous, continue to talk to them in the way you used to, I want you to get any possible information."

"Don't worry, they can't see us, and they can't hear us."

Charlotte sat high on the throne, watched with great interest the Ness teleconference directly projected by her through the spiritual connection, and ordered Rachel who was disguised as Earl Hall.

Rachel forced himself to look away.

He suppressed the shock in his heart, concentrated his energy on the venue, and soon discovered the problem.

The position that originally belonged to Earl Lachlan...is empty!

"Okay, now that everyone is here, let's start the meeting."

The phantom at the front of the long table, that is, Earl Ulster of the Ness clan, said in a deep voice.

However, as soon as he finished speaking, the phantom on the other side of the long table who also hadn't saluted Lahaier just now asked Lahaier's curious question:

"Your Excellency Earl Urst, you seem to have forgotten that His Excellency Earl Lachlan is not here yet."

The phantom representing Earl Ulster glanced at him and said:

"Your Excellency, the Earl of Nottingham, Lachlan will not come. He has already dedicated himself to Ness and returned to the kingdom of our Lord."

As soon as these words came out, the remote meeting place suddenly fell into commotion.

Lahair and Agnès Qiqi were stunned for a moment, and then couldn't help turning their heads to look at the beautiful figure sitting on the Blood Throne.

Those of them who participated in the last remote meeting certainly knew what Earl Lachlan was doing before.

However, they originally thought that Earl Lachlan was only defeated in the confrontation with the Earl of Castel, but they never expected that they would fall directly!

That is an Earl of Blood!

The real blazing sun!

Regardless of the fact that they had murdered the real Earl Hall, they knew very well how lucky their actions were.

Even if they succeeded in killing Earl Hall, it was only after gaining the other party's trust, and it was done by poisoning and sneak attacking while the other party was sleeping regularly.

Even so, they almost lost half their lives when they killed each other!

Earl Lachlan is even more different. He is completely different from Earl Hall who parted ways with the Gorefiend Order. He is a blood clan of the Ness clan and has a backer. Behind him stands a blood clan of the Duke level!

Killing such a vampire is probably far more difficult than killing a Chi Yang!

Who did it?

Is there a powerful secret protector behind Earl Castel?

Or……

The gazes of Agnès and the two of them could not help falling on Charlotte, and they were terrified by a certain absurd thought that arose in their hearts.

However, looking at the spiritual world of the ancient castle around them, looking at the conference projection drawn into the spiritual world by Charlotte, and looking at the many blood races in the venue who are surrounded by people who don't know it, it's hard for the two of them not to be in their hearts. A question arises:

The Earl of Castel...is he really just a star?

"His Excellency the Earl of Lachlan has fallen? How is this possible?"

"His strength is far superior to that of Chi Yang, and the leader of Castel doesn't even have more than five people in Yinyue. How could anyone be able to kill him?"

"What exactly is going on?"

At the venue, the Earl of Nottingham's eyes changed slightly, and he asked in a serious voice.

Earl Ulster sighed and said:

"My lord the duke told me about this matter. I don't know the specifics at the moment, but... Judging from the lord duke's attitude, it seems that there is a secret hidden in the Castel family that even the duke is afraid of." strength."

A power that even the Duke fears?

The blood races at the venue showed shock, and then fell into commotion again.

"The Castel family? But isn't the Castel family already in decline? They even only have a young Earl who has just grown up!"

"Yes, I heard that Earl Castel was almost killed by the Gorefiend Cult when he was in the Principality of Boulder. How could he pose a threat to Lord Lachlan?"

"Wait, could it be that the Holy King's Court made a move? I heard that the little Earl of Castel is the saint of the Holy King's Court. Could it be that the Holy King's Court is secretly guarded by a powerful person?"

"Impossible! If she is really the saint of the Holy Royal Court, she would have been personally escorted by the Knights Templar long before she entered the Earl of Castel."

The vampires at the venue were talking about it.

Looking at the chaotic venue, the leader, Earl Ulster, knocked on the table and said:

"Solemn!"

The great spiritual power of the Earl of Blood swept across the venue.

Except for Nottingham, who is also the earl, the illusory projections of the other blood races trembled, and soon fell into silence.

Lahaier also felt the unparalleled spiritual power of the other party.

However, the moment the mental coercion swept over him, he felt the soft crimson radiance covering himself, which didn't bring him even the slightest bit of pressure.

He couldn't help but glanced at the small figure on the throne behind him, feeling that the other party was getting more mysterious and unfathomable...

Earl Urst glanced across the audience, and after seeing that everyone was quiet, he nodded in satisfaction, and then said in a deep voice:

"I am urgently charging the communication crystal to summon you all, and I am also conveying the order of the Duke..."

"Your Excellency has an order. From now on, suspend all plans to infiltrate Castel, and stop attacking Castel nobles, especially the Castel family!"

After all, he looked at the Earl of Nottingham:

"Your Excellency, the Earl of Nottingham, you are the closest to Castel. From now on, you will take over all the work of the Earl of Lachlan, but... it is not to continue to advance, but to re-establish contact as soon as possible, restrain all descendants of blood and belong to the blood clan , avoid the sharp edge for now, and don't be an enemy of Castel!"

As soon as these words came out, all the Ness blood clan present were stunned again.

"Suspend the infiltration plan? But... now the plan has reached the most critical moment, and I got information that the little count of Castel has already planned to attack our people!"

The Earl of Nottingham couldn't help but said.

"Then order people to evacuate first! In short... His Excellency the Duke has an order. Before he gives new orders, you must not be an enemy of Castel!"

Earl Ulster's voice was serious.

Then, he looked at the crowd again:

"In addition, His Excellency the Duke also has an order that we use all available resources to investigate the Earl of Castel——Charlotte de Castel's relevant information!"

Investigating Charlotte?

Lachel and Agnès were startled.

They subconsciously turned their heads and glanced at someone behind them in unison, with strange expressions.

"Investigate Charlotte de Castel? Lachlan's downfall is related to her?"

Above the venue, the voice of the Earl of Nottingham was a little surprised.

Earl Urst nodded slightly:

"I'm afraid that's the case. After all...the day Lord Lachlan fell, he was going for her."

After all, his eyes fell on the blood races:

"Everyone, many of you have successfully established information points in the New Moon Kingdom. What information do you know about Charlotte of Castel? The more detailed the better!"

"Charlotte of Castle..."

At the venue, many blood descendants fell into deep thought.

"I heard that she has inherited the usual beauty of the Castel family. She is known as the Pearl of Boulder and the most beautiful girl in the Silvermoon Kingdom."

A blood race thought for a while and said in a deep voice.

"If I remember correctly, the ancestor of the Castel family once married an elf. She has more or less elven blood. Although the blood is sparse, she should be considered a half-elf."

Another blood race pondered for a moment and said.

"I've heard a rumor that Earl Castel's mother is from the Fallen Star Kingdom, and... seems to be from the Fallen Star Royal Family..."

Another blood clan couldn't help but said.

As soon as these words came out, the eyes of many blood races fell on the Earl of Nottingham.

The Earl of Nottingham blinked slightly, and said:

"It's Anne, the 'pious' of the Roman family, and it can be regarded as a secret of the Roman family. Not many people know about it."

"'Pious' Anne? Your Highness Anne? That half-sister of Henry the Fool? Edward III's half-sister? But didn't she die from the wind and cold?"

A blood race asked curiously.

"Fengchi? Didn't it mean that Henry the idiot poisoned her to death because he was worried about her threat to the throne?"

Another blood clan said doubtfully.

The Earl of Nottingham shook his head:

"No, no, the pious Anne fell in love with the previous Earl of Castel during his visit to Falling Star, and then gave up the right to inherit the throne and followed him to the New Moon Kingdom incognito."

After hearing his words, the eyes of some blood races flickered slightly:

"So... the Earl of Castel is likely to be guarded by the Roman family?!"

The Earl of Nottingham shook his head again:

"No, it's impossible. Lilac is now in power in the Roman family. Although Edward III has a blood relationship with Anne the Pious, he doesn't actually have much affection. Not to mention, Anne the Pious chose the crescent moon. For Roman, it is more like Betrayer..."

"If there is really a power behind Earl Castel that even the Duke fears, it may be something else."

After listening to the Earl of Nottingham's words, the blood race at the venue fell into discussion again.

Lahair and Agnes, who were watching the venue, showed surprise on their faces.

Anne the Devout?

Princess Anne?

The Earl of Castel... So he has such a big background?

Charlotte's eyes also twitched wildly.

She didn't expect her curious original life experience to be deciphered at the venue of the Ness blood clan.

And good guy, she is really the princess of the Fallen Star Kingdom, and even the sister of the former king and the current king!

It's just... It sounds like your circle is really chaotic.

Looking at the blood clan caught in the discussion, Earl Ulster scanned the audience and said in a deep voice:

"These are old things. Apart from that, about Earl Castel... do you know any other information?"

The vampires fell silent.

After a while, a vampire said uncertainly:

"Speaking of which, I have heard a rumor..."

"When the Earl of Castel was still in Boulder, he seemed to have been involved in a case involving the advent of evil gods..."
