Whispering Verse

Seeing that Mrs. Jude was really going to fight him this time, Shade did not lift the sword, but faced the blood mist with his bare hands.

The blood mist itself is only corrosive, and the real danger comes from the amorphous vampire species hidden in the blood mist. Her two sharp claws clawed at Shade in the blood mist, while Shade's hands continued to penetrate deep into the mist and slap her elbows and palms.

The power of the two was not on the same level at all, and even the corrosiveness of the blood mist was not enough to hurt Shade. After two or three consecutive fights, Shade knew that Mrs. Jude was not dangerous to him.

However, the contact between the two people only lasted a few seconds, because Mr. Bernhardt's voice came clearly from behind the blood mist:

"Praise my Lord - the Vampire God!"

The red light instantly hit the blood mist, and Mrs. Jude was forcibly restored to her human form and fell to the ground. But she ignored her own embarrassment and turned to look at Mr. Bernhardt behind her in shock:

"The old guys from Willendale, did you give all this to you?"

Mr. Bernhardt held a bright red metal holy symbol in his hand. Shade could feel the power of this magical item even with his eyes closed.

If you are facing a non-vampire warlock, this holy symbol can be regarded as a good blood thaumaturgy enhancement item, but if you are facing a vampire, the power of this holy symbol is much greater.

"The Order provided me with everything except men."

Mr. Bernhardt said, and then gave a stern warning:

"Don't do anything to my friends! This time is just a warning. Next time you dare to do something, I guarantee you won't be able to stand and see the sun the next day."

He had temporarily put the coachman and the maid into the carriage. He and Shade blocked all possible escape directions for Mrs. Jude:

"I originally just wanted to ask you about some local things, but Mrs. Jude, are you hiding any other secrets?"

The woman got up from the ground and did not adjust her clothes. Instead, she showed a mocking expression:

"What, Viscount, do you want to mind your own business? Or do you want to show the justice of the Willendale people to Yuewan?"

"justice?"

The vampire seed Lord asked back. Shade had never seen him as angry as he was at this moment:

"Do you know what you are doing? Orphanage? Adopting children? Do you think this is my first day out?

Last time you heard about vampires raising human children and establishing blood ranches, what was that guy's final fate? How did the Zhengshen Church treat its local compatriots after that? "

Shade believed that if these words were not too sensitive, even if he had cast a silencing spell at this moment, the vampire seed Lord, who had always been a gentleman, would still roar.

"Hmph~"

Mrs. Jude's left hand grasped her right arm:

"I don't deny what I have done, but I have never killed any children. I have also tried my best to ensure that they grow up healthy and healthy, and I have never thought of transforming any of them into blood descendants.

I have never sold human blood to anyone, nor have I invited any of my own kind to go there. I am worthy of them, and the living environment I provide for those orphans is something they could never have imagined. "

Her unusually sharp fingers painted with red nail polish pointed at Mr. Bernhardt:

"And all I ask for in return is to quietly take some snacks without harming them. If this can be regarded as a 'blood ranch', then what is the steam factory built by humans to exploit their fellow humans? Compared with humans themselves. , what I did to their pups was nothing short of angelic.”

She was personally admitting what she had done. Shade suspected that Captain Rudolf took the initiative to bring up this matter yesterday just to let Mr. Bernhardt, a foreigner of his own race, eliminate this hidden danger. Shade thus created a Confuse.

"The exploitation of humans by humans can certainly be considered ranching, but can you answer me a question?"

Shade then took the initiative to speak, and the woman facing Mr. Bernhardt turned to look at him again:

"You don't look like one of our kind."

"I'm probably a human. I'm very curious. You founded an orphanage and then adopted those children for free. Even if other local vampires believe that you have purely good intentions, has no one doubted it for so many years? You?"

Shade said softly:

"The Viscount and I are both outsiders. We just did a simple investigation and discovered the problem.

Mrs. Jude, I don't think the two of us have any amazing wisdom, and I don't think the local vampires are all fools. So, this matter continues to go on, is it because you killed all the insiders, or are the insiders tacitly helping you? "

"So what do you think this is because of?"

The lady's eyes widened slightly:

"I can't even beat you, why do you think I'm capable of killing other people?"

This sentence is correct. Mrs. Jude may have a noble bloodline within the vampire species, but her ring sorcerer level is only five rings at most. Either Shade or Mr. Bernhardt can easily subdue her. she.

"So, maybe there aren't many in number, but some of the same people in Moon Bay actually know about it?"

Mr. Bernhard asked in return, and then covered his forehead without waiting for an answer:

"I originally thought that Willendale's cult was decadent and bad enough. I didn't expect that compared with Yuewan, the old gentlemen of the royal capital would actually appear so cautious and humble. Is this world really a worse place? world?

No, I don't discuss these things with you. But it is wrong for an intelligent creature to keep another group of intelligent creatures in captivity and treat them as snacks.

In 693 of the Sixth Era, after the last war between vampires and humans, the "Vampire Blood Products Regulations" and "Blood Secret Covenant" signed by the Church with the Five Gods Church have been implemented for a thousand years. This regulation guarantees Our race continues, you did something wrong, it's that simple. "

The woman smiled and said:

"What, Viscount Armand Bernhard, do you want to be a 'just man' and eliminate me now? Then tell me, what I did to the children is not good enough? Is the reward I ask for a lot? Bei Earnhardt, if you think you're doing the right thing—"

She pointed to her heart:

"I definitely can't beat you, so kill me here. But today, a year later, I very much hope that you can come back here to channel my ghost, and then tell me that those children have gained more in this year. What kind of life it is.”

She saw Mr. Bernhardt's gloomy face:

"I can save more kids and I have. You did nothing about it and yet you are here blaming me.

Adults know that no one is perfect and everyone makes mistakes. Why can't you tolerate my little mistake and supervise me to maintain my current status and not cross the line? "

Shade thought that her friend would teach her a lesson, but Mr. Bernhardt did not do so:

"Is sucking human blood that important to you?"

"Yes."

She raised her head slightly:

"After my husband passed away, this was the last little hobby I had left. Now, 'just man', for your justice and rules, kill me. I admit what I did, but I will never regret it. .”

Generally speaking, such words would only force those who were originally unwilling to take action, but it was obvious that Armand Bernhard was not an impulsive person.

His nostrils flapped and he was obviously very excited, but he didn't take action until the end:

"I have other things to deal with now. Killing you here will only get me into trouble. You can leave, but this matter is definitely not over. When I have time, I will come back to you. This is not Threaten you, that’s the truth.”

"I welcome you to visit me. I will be very happy if you can tell me about your 'trial' against me when we meet next time."

Mrs. Jude said, turning around subconsciously to leave, but after taking a look at Shade, she still chose to walk towards Mr. Bernhardt. After all, her carriage was there, and of course because she was sure that her own people would not take action, and She had not yet been able to discern the thoughts of the handsome young man who claimed to be a human being.

After waking up the coachman and maid, the lady hurriedly left. When Shade put his hands in his pockets and left from the other side of the alley with Mr. Bernhardt, the latter asked somewhat dejectedly:

"Mr. Watson, tell me, did I do something wrong?"

"She has nothing to do with what I want to investigate, so I don't have any objection to you letting her go. If I had any objection, I would have stopped her just now. As for what she did wrong, I won't comment."

Shade's tone was very relaxed, but he also understood why his friend was feeling heavy.

"So what should I do right?"

"Oh, I thought you were going to ask me what justice is. I can't explain this question clearly. As for what you want to do, I don't know either."

Shade thought for a while and asked again:

"Viscount, do you want to hear what I would do if I were the only one here today and discovered the truth about Lady Jude?"

"Please say."

"I rarely kill people. Yes, don't look at me like this. I really rarely take the initiative to kill people. In my opinion, it is nonsense to say that freedom is more important than life. As for the importance of dignity, it depends on Different people have different ideas.

That woman had an arrogant attitude, but if she really didn't murder those children, I wouldn't care about it. When I was in Green Lake, I saw a child living in a trash can with a puppy in his arms. I know how pitiful orphans are in this era.

To be honest, not having enough food and clothing to keep warm is obviously more terrifying than losing blood which is not life-threatening. "

As he said this, he and Mr. Bernhardt left the alley and returned to the bustling street:

"But you are not me, Mr. Bernhardt. We have different identities, so the choices we make will not be the same."

He was referring to himself as a human being, and Shade was not a vampire.
