Sister Devlin's Chosen Ceremony even caused a small earthquake that spread from the narrow space to the real world, but compared to other things tonight, this earthquake is not worth mentioning at all.
In the real Fort Midhill, the Cassandra Auction House, the witch's apprentice, Ms. Rita Swift, is organizing people to repair the walls that were broken by the battle just now, and seal the hole where the white mist poured in.
Although she heard strange noises outside, noticed that the undead lingering on the street suddenly paused, and saw the strange golden light in the sky, but she didn't care.
Twenty minutes after the Chosen Ceremony was completed, a figure appeared outside the Cassandra Auction House. Accompanied by a hasty knock on the door, Miss Rita Swift, who was temporarily in charge of all affairs of the auction house, found Shade outside the door.
"I just ran down the hill, Miss Swift, open the door!"
"Sorry, I need to confirm your identity first, please"
Before she could say anything, Xia De opened the door with the [Key to the Door] and rushed in.
He was sweating profusely and panting. The situation at home is extremely bad now. The white mist on the third floor is almost spreading to the downstairs. The witch is urgently blocking the breath of death, and the out-of-control [Traveler's Travel Door], even if it is blocked by the "Space Stability Halo", Temporarily suppressed, but still restless, unable to move to the statue of the ancient **** in the basement to suppress.
But even so, after leaving Joey Barton and Marilyn Handel in the Saint Teresa Square for interrogation by the curious witch, he immediately said goodbye to Luvia who had observed the signs of the star whale, and went from home again The basement rushed towards Fort Midhill, heading straight here at the fastest speed.
Without the night watchman, he couldn't deal with the evil spirits overflowing from the narrow space so quickly; there was no divinity in his body, and even though the afterglow state continued, the feeling of emptiness that drove him mad still made Shad mentally exhausted.
Fortunately, the fluctuations in the power of the Chosen Ceremony prevented the restless undead from making any moves, which is why he came so quickly. After entering the door, no matter how bad his physical and mental state was, he asked in a trembling voice:
"Where's Grace and Helen?"
Miss Swift, who was closing the door, lowered her head slightly, and Xia De noticed that the entire hall on the first floor of the auction was almost turned into ruins.
This is the headquarters of Cassandra Auction House, which is famous throughout the Old Continent, and its refined decoration is even more luxurious than some noble manors. But now there are claw marks and explosion marks everywhere, even the floor and ceiling are not complete, there are several large holes that can be jumped into the basement and the second floor.
The smell of gunpowder smoke and dust has dissipated, but one can still imagine how fierce the battle broke out here not long ago.
Granny Cassandra took away the main followers and entered the narrow room, and now everyone who is left is doing their best to restore the building, at least to ensure that the white mist will no longer flow in.
"I'm still late, the vampire has already left?"
"How do you know that about an hour ago, two Gaohuan, a blood-sucking species from Zhonghuan came here to take away the teachers of the teachers who can't leave now. The battle was fierce, and finally the teachers of the teachers appeared and stopped After finishing the battle, he left with the two high-ring vampires."
"Grace and Helen left?"
Shad breathed heavily.
"However, because the blood-sucking species in the middle ring was seriously injured, they kept him. They said that after this matter was over, they would spend money to redeem him. Moreover, we seized a sage-level relic [Blood Thorn Scepter] 】.”
"Where is the Central Vampire?"
Xia De asked eagerly.
"In the basement."
As expected, the captured guy was Shad's acquaintance, Mr. Armand Bernhardt who brought his nephew to Midhill Castle, and he was locked in the relic storage room in the basement.
This gentleman is a distant relative of the Carson Rik royal family, and the words elegant and classy have been fully implemented in several appearances. But this time, he looked extremely embarrassed.
Lying on the bed against the wall, his face was as pale as white paper, and the clothes on his body were covered with blood. Miss Swift didn't kill him, but apparently only gave him the most basic treatment:
"This is really an ungrateful person. My mother-in-law even introduced him and bought good things from another witch."
Miss Swift, who brought Shad to the basement, said dissatisfiedly, and Mr. Bernhardt, who heard the voice, also tried to get up from the bed:
"Look, it's Mr. Hamilton."
He wanted to smile, but couldn't because of the severity of his injury.
"Where?"
Xia De asked in a low voice.
"I don't know either. I'm only responsible for bringing that blood prince here disguised as my nephew. I don't know the exact location."
Mr. Bernhardt tried hard to reply.
"when?"
"At midnight, the blood moon is across the sky."
It is eleven twenty-three, only half an hour away.
"Mr. Hamilton, in fact, you don't have to worry. What we have done will not harm this city or anyone. We will compensate for the losses caused to Cassandra Auction House. You might as well sit down and talk to I waited for midnight together to witness the curtain of blood being shattered."
"Shut up."
Miss Swift said in a gloomy voice that Grandma Cassandra temporarily handed over the auction house to her, but she made such a big omission. Even if the opponent is too strong, it is still her negligence.
"The scepter of blood and thorns is here, can what you are going to do really succeed?"
Xia De asked another sorceress of the Central Ring who was standing at the door to bring the scepter that was temporarily kept in another room in the basement.
The Blood Thorn Scepter is a black wooden scepter with a ruby inlaid at the highest end, and the whole scepter is entwined with a **** thorn. One end of the thorn seems to grow out of the ruby, and the other end is wrapped around the end of the scepter.
The surface of the black wood is polished and smooth, but if you look at it against the light, you can see raised letters that are difficult to see—
[The thorns enter the body, and the blood shines with me. 】
Care must be taken to ensure that the hands are not harmed by the thorns. This is a genuine sage-level relic, and it is also a weapon-type relic.
"It doesn't matter, we have collected nine relics, but only seven of them are enough."
Armand Bernhardt said that he had no intention of hiding it, and Shad only knew five of them.
"Mr. Hamilton, you saved me in the sin mansion. I want to advise you. Don't chase after me. It's okay if you can't catch up. If you catch up, you really can't come back."
The seriously injured vampire looked at Xia De, the whites of his eyes were bloodshot.
Although the man brought the little boy to Middlesbrough, Xia De didn't feel bad for Mr. Bernhardt. Armand Bernhardt was only doing what he was ordered to do, and at this time he was willing to give all the information he knew:
"Wait!" Gu Bai
The weak Mr. Bernhardt said doubtfully:
"What we are discussing is the angel-level relic [Red Butterfly Twins]."
"Yes, they are very important to me."
Xia De nodded, and then saw the awed expression on the face of this very upper-class middle-aged vampire.
With Miss Swift's consent, Shad gave Mr. Bernhardt a small glass of water that had been treated with [Satiating Food]. After he drank slowly, he sat by the narrow bed against the wall like a prison and asked:
"I have to catch up, do you really have no other clues?"
"I'm only in Central. It's convenient for me to bring the prince here. But it must be on the mountain. I don't know the exact location. Sorry, I can't help you. Stop chasing, it's really for your own good." .”
He still persuasively said.
Xia De was silent for a while, and out of the corner of his eye, he saw the scepter carefully held by Miss Swift:
"The function of this scepter is to enhance the extraordinary power related to blood. How strong is this enhancement?"
"Very strong, if it is related to my lord, then it will be even stronger."
Mr. Bernhardt said, seeing that Shade took the relic on his own initiative, he introduced how to use it:
"Recite the mantra 'Blood thorns run through my body, the road of blood opens now', the blood thorns will pierce the back of your hand. You can't use the common language, you have to use the Columba secret language, I don't like to use this kind of scepter Weapons I prefer the two alchemy pistols I made myself."
The so-called "Columba secret language" is an aristocratic language used in the territories ruled by vampires in the fourth era, also known as the so-called dark era. The group of vampires is not as powerful as the elves, and there is no language named after the group. Therefore, the "Columba" secret language during the prosperity of the vampires in ancient times has become the secret language of the upper class of the sixth era, which is quite an ancient language.
This is not even studied in the compulsory courses at St. Byrence, it is optional. Although Xia De is proficient in characters, he must see the characters to read them out. It is impossible to know the pronunciation of the corresponding ciphertext after knowing the universal text translation.
He hesitated for a moment:
"Columba secret language, does it have a strong relationship with your race?"
Shad asked again, and Mr. Bernhardt thought about it, but he didn't expect the witch's apprentice to speak:
"This is a very important language of the vampires. At least a quarter of the ancient documents and thaumaturgy and spell scrolls of the contemporary vampires are written in this language. This is almost equivalent to the language of the race."
"Is such that."
Mr. Bernhardt nodded slightly and drank the water. Although he was still seriously injured, his face looked better.
"I see."
Xia De reached into his pocket and took out the two green leaves obtained after completing the Fifth Epoch 3024 key.
These two leaves of youth, one represents [knowledge - original sin thaumaturgy], and the other represents [a piece of real information - vampire]. Because there is no label on the leaves, Xia De can only put the one on the left in front of his eyes first.
As the golden lines on the leaf veins gradually penetrated into his eyes, Xia De frowned slightly. This piece is the original sin thaumaturgy, which contains the method of adding the [Laziness] spirit rune to the [Major Sin Chain], but it is useless to him now.
"It's this one."
The second green leaf was also placed in front of the right eye. With the huge amount of knowledge and information pouring into his mind, Xia De found the information he wanted in it:
"Sure enough."
He took the scepter from Miss Swift, and under the watchful eyes of Mr. Armand Bernhardt and the Witch Apprentice, he whispered with his lungs and chanted with the help of nasal cavity humming:
"Blood thorns run through my body, and the road of blood opens at this moment."
The knowledge of the elven race allowed Xia De to master the elven language briefly, and the knowledge of the vampire species also included the content of "Columba secret language".
As Xia De's words fell, the **** thorns on the scepter squirmed, climbed to Xia De's wrist and entangled tightly. They didn't pierce the skin, but Xia De clearly felt the tingling all over his body.
"That's all right"
"Mr. Hamilton, are you really going up the mountain?"
Mr. Bernhardt also wanted to persuade Shad to stay:
"I can't tell you what's going to happen on the hill, but... don't go there. I can guarantee with my soul that what's coming will never endanger Fort Midhill!"
But Shad shook his head and left here with Miss Swift.
The two entered the deepest part of the basement, the room where Helen and Grace once lived. The twins have left, the curtains beside the huge four-poster bed have been lifted, and the clothes on the floor have disappeared, but the concentration of whispering elements is still extraordinary.
"Mr. Hamilton, how are you going to find them?"
asked Miss Swift softly.
"I have a thaumaturgy. By dripping anyone's blood into the eyes, I can see all the movements of the blood owner in a day."
"But do you have the blood of teachers who don't have teachers here?"
"No, neither have I."
Xia De shook his head, holding the scepter and looking at the huge bed:
"But I once dripped their blood into my eyes, that was in the last century."
He paused:
"To be more precise ~www.mtlnovel.com~ that was two months ago (Chapter 568)."
The blood thorn scepter strengthened [Blood Echo], Xia De, who should only be able to see the traces of blood in one day, spanned a longer time and touched the power of blood. A clear red halo, moreover a red halo representing two people, appeared on that bed.
The figures of the red halo overlapped, showing that Grace and Helen stayed here for a long time. And when they left the bed, the tall, god-like figure had returned to the normal size of a human female:
"Miss Swift, I'm off then."
He stared at the two red halos, and he already knew exactly what the vampire **** wanted to do. Those ten wine-making stories were basically reminding him of his true purpose.
In order for Rezia and Dorothy to be helped, and for the two innocent souls not to be sacrificed, he was able to help them at the God's Reception in the last era, and this time, he was still able to help them.
