Original Vampire

The night is getting darker.

Ice Rock City tonight has no moonlight, only a little bit of stars.

Colin stood on the balcony of the Red Fort and looked into the distance.

To the north is a cold and barren ice field, while to the east, you can see the edge of the forest.

In the dark forest, I don’t know how many wild beasts are hidden.

Cross the dark forest, you can enter the territory of the semi-elf kingdom.

With the sound of footsteps, Knight Charl appeared behind Colin: "My lord, are you looking for me?"

"Sit down." Colin turned around and pointed to the table again. "Let’s drink some."

Knight Charl hesitated: "My lord, I am ready to give up drinking."

"It's okay, drink less." Colin insisted Tao.

Knight Charl then picked up the wine glass, touched Colin lightly, and brought it to his mouth.

Colin drank red wine while watching Knight Charl's reaction.

The glass of red wine he gave Charl was poisonous.

Of course, this is not Colin deliberately pitting his descendant.

It's just that he is doing an experiment.

Besides, he has experimented on blood slaves before and found that they are all immune to highly toxic substances.

So, he thinks that the descendant with a higher level should also be protected from the poison.

"How? Is there any change in your body the past few days?" Colin put down his glass and asked.

Charl put down his wine glass and reported his findings to Colin excitedly.

Through the other party's narrative, Colin learned that Knight Charl's current changes are very similar to him.

Photophobia, bloodthirsty, immortality...

Yes, Charl, the fierce person, started experimenting with his body after he discovered that his severed finger had regrown.

Then he found that he had no fatal injuries at all.

Of course, unlike the blood slave, Charl's pain is still there.

Colin rubbed his chin, lost in thought.

He wants to know now whether the descendant can also be promoted by consuming the blood of high-ranking Knights.

However, Charl is currently the third rank Knight, and Colin does not have the blood of the fourth rank Knight to experiment.

"Can you control your tiger tooth?" Colin asked again.

"tiger tooth?" Knight Charl looked confused, then opened his mouth, revealing two inconspicuous tiger teeth, "It seems...cannot."

"En ......"

Colin guessed that if the descendant cannot control the elongation of the tiger tooth, it may not be able to release blood poison through the tiger tooth, and it will not be possible to create blood slaves.

Of course, it is even more impossible to have a complete initial embrace and create the next generation descendant.

Afterwards, Colin and Knight Charl talked about cavalry construction. Seeing that the other party looked as usual and was not affected by poisonous alcohol at all, Colin also confirmed the fact that the descendant is immune to poison.

"Oh right, do you like hunting?" Colin suddenly asked.

Knight Charl froze for a moment, nodded and said: "I like it."

"Well, last time I went hunting with Knight Lego, this guy ran into a mysterious Knight. I was beaten up, but I didn’t make the most of it. I originally planned to accompany him again, but I’m too busy recently. If you have time, you can accompany him to play again."

Last time with Lego After borrowing blood, Colin was promoted to Rank 2 smoothly.

However, he felt that Lego's blood should still help him get promoted to the third rank, so he wanted to borrow it again.

But Colin doesn't plan to lead Lego to go hunting by himself, because that will easily arouse the suspicion of the other party.

If every time he goes hunting with Colin, he will be attacked, then Lego will suspect that the attacker is probably related to Colin, no matter how stupid he is.

So, he planned to let Knight Charl lead Knight Lego out.

"Okay." Knight Charl didn't suspect him, so naturally nodded.

After sending Knight Charl away, Colin picked up the other party's wine glass and poured the remaining poisonous wine into his mouth.

Blood slaves and descendant can both be immune to highly poisonous, so I should be even more okay.

Colin thought so.

Just as he was feeling the changes in his body, the sound of footsteps sounded again, and Emon steward appeared on the balcony: "Master, are you looking for me?"

Colin nodded:" Sit down."

The two sat down on the balcony. Colin clapped his hands and asked the maid to serve two glasses of red wine and some dried fruits.

Of course, there is no poison in the wine this time.

The maid placed things on the table gently, and then quickly left.

"Have you changed all the servants in the castle?" Colin asked after taking a sip of the red wine.

"No, just changed the personal servant around you again. This is also for your safety, and it doesn't cost much." Emon explained quickly.

Colin nodded, did not say anything.

The servants of the Red Fort are basically left by the Sudor family at the time. Colin didn’t intend to replace them all. After all, the recruitment and training of new servants require money, and the current Anglia family’s finances The situation is not well-off.

He needs to save every amount of money as much as possible and use it in key places-such as army building.

However, he also knew that old steward was out of good intentions, so he didn't scold him.

"How is Quincy’s new tax officer doing?"

"Very good." Emon nodded with a smile, "Master, you found a very good tax officer Officer."

"Well, that's good. But you have to stare at him a little bit. I can't fully trust him yet."

"I understand."

Seeing that Emon understood what he meant, Colin relaxed, took another letter from his jacket pocket and handed it to old steward:

"Just received a reply from the Marquis of Dawson, He agreed to provide us with war horses and armor. However, the price...a bit too high, you see if it fits."

Emon carefully read the letter from the Marquis Dawson, and thought about it for a moment. Said:

"Master, we can ask Marquis Dawson to provide a batch of samples. If the quality of the samples is as good as what he said, no less than the standard equipment of Black Cavalry, then the price is really not high. "

"Well, let him send a batch of samples first." Colin rubbed his forehead, a little annoyed, "but our family finances... can we afford this expenditure now?" "

"It's difficult." Emon said truthfully.

Seeing Colin's deep thoughts, Emon persuaded: "Master, forgive me to speak bluntly, is it too anxious to form cavalry now?"

Colin was silent.

He understands what Emon said makes sense, he is indeed a little anxious.

If you wait for a year or two, wait for the territory to resume development, and wait for the tax revenue to become abundant, it may be more appropriate to form cavalry.

However, Colin couldn't wait that long.

He knew that the rift between Duke Saint Hild and Marquis Garcia had formed.

Although Marquis Garcia seems to be quiet at the moment, it seems that he has endured his big brother's betrayal.

But who knows when there will be another crisis in the North, when the time comes, will Black Cavalry still stand on the side of Duke Saint Hild unreservedly like the previous two times?

So, Colin felt a deep crisis.

He must quickly develop his own power, lest he doesn’t even have the qualifications to stand when the time comes, so he can only follow the crowd and let others kill him.

Think of this, Colin clenched the teeth, ruthlessly said.

"We can borrow!"
