Tome of Blood

  Chapter 116-115-Lottie and the High Priest

  Charlotte never intended to let the high priest go.

   It's just that she doesn't plan to make a direct move.

  The death of a great knight has enough influence. If another great priest dies, it is almost obvious that there is a big problem with the Holy King Ting Bold.

  At that time, the investigating priests sent by the Holy Royal Court will definitely be legendary.

  She not only has to deal with potential threats, but also prevents herself from falling into greater danger.

   "Master, what shall we do next?"

  Sebas asked respectfully.

   "Of course...it's going straight to Huanglong."

  The girl said calmly.

  In the darkness of night, Charlotte stood on the eaves of the clock tower in the outer city, and her eyes fell on the darkest part of the city in Boulder.

  The red-gold pupils still glowed with brilliance, and the long silver hair swayed with the night wind.

  …

   Lottie slowly woke up from the darkness.

  She found herself in a dark dungeon, and her holy power was completely sealed.

  Drunk Dream Salon?

   This was Lottie's first thought.

  But soon, this idea was overturned by her.

  As a priest who has followed Earl Tulip for seven years, she is all too familiar with that dirty and depraved place.

  The cell here looks even more dilapidated and old, and she still has an inexplicable sense of familiarity, but it is definitely not the underground prison of Drunken Dream Salon.

   And when she saw the Gorefiend cultist standing guard at the door of the cell, although she had a premonition, her heart was still slightly dark:

  Finally...discovered?

   Lottie was not surprised that she was imprisoned.

No, in other words, when she secretly rescued the girls who were targeted by the Drunken Dream Salon again and again, when she immediately notified the Rose Society branch in the western city after she reported the Rose Society, she had already been angered The awakening of Earl Tulip's captivity.

  In fact, she has been surprised that she has secretly broken so many things in the salon for so many years, but has never been discovered.

   It was as if someone was sheltering her in secret. Not only was she not suspected, but she was trusted more and more.

  Lottie sometimes thinks she's pretty silly.

  Obviously I hid my identity and approached Earl Tulip in order to investigate the truth about the calamity of the Balrog ten years ago. I obviously wanted to find and save my sister whose life and death were uncertain.

   But when she saw the girls who were suffering, she still couldn't help being shaken in her heart, and subconsciously shot secretly.

  Perhaps, this is also a kind of guilt.

  Although she has investigated clearly that her father was controlled ten years ago, it is a fact that thousands of girls died at the hands of their own families.

   She is in pain.

Very painful.

   During the seven years of lurking, she wanted to expose everything about Drunken Dream Salon more than once, but she knew that she couldn't do it.

  Sisters connected to each other, she knows that her only family member in this world, the elder sister who protected her at a critical moment ten years ago is likely to be under the control of the Gorefiend Sect.

  She knew that her elder sister must have been polluted. If she reported everything here to the church at a higher level, her elder sister might also be purified...

   Not to mention, she didn't know who she should trust.

  Even the great priest has joined forces with Earl Tulip.

  A higher church, is it trustworthy?

   Lottie doesn't know.

  In the past seven years, she has seen too many nobles being dragged into the water by Earl Tulip.

  She has seen too many people who are benevolent and dignified, but they are so dirty and cruel in secret.

  She has also seen more than one waiter who couldn't stand the Drunken Dream Salon and chose to report to the church or the Duke's Mansion. However...all those who reported had a miserable end.

  The information passed on to the church will eventually return to Earl Tulip.

  The news to the Duke's mansion could not even reach the Duke's desk.

   Year after year passed, Drunk Dream Salon still exists.

   Lottie knew that her strength was too weak.

  She can't change the situation at all.

  She can only save as many girls as possible, and she can only investigate where her sister is as quickly as possible...

   But now it seems that maybe this is also the end.

   "It was my report to the Rosary Society, did the Earl find out..."

   Lottie couldn't help thinking.

  However, at the next moment, an old and hoarse low laugh suddenly sounded outside the cell:

"Discovered? No, you should thank your sister, because of her secret help, Earl Tulip never discovered your little tricks, what's more... In fact, you didn't save as many girls as you imagined. After all, many times you The object of salvation does not exist, it is just your self-deceiving memory."

  Lottie was stunned for a moment, and looked outside the cell, only to see a crooked figure shrouded in darkness slowly emerge.

   That is the High Priest of the Gorefiend Cult!

   "That's right, it's me, Miss Lottie, no, or...Miss Broylie."

  The high priest smiled slightly.

  Lottie's instant horror:

   "Can you hear what I'm thinking?!"

  However, the Gorefiend High Priest did not directly answer her question.

  The high priest just entered the cell and looked down at her with mockery and pity in his gaze:

   "Countess Broglie, do you always feel that you have been following your own will?"

   "In order to investigate the truth ten years ago, you approached Earl Tulip, and in order to investigate the life and death of your sister, you lurked in the Drunken Dream Salon..."

   "Hehe, then... have you ever thought that you have always been a puppet with a string?"

  After listening to the words of the high priest, Lottie's eyes widened:

"What do you mean?"

  The high priest laughed:

"literal meaning."

   "Miss Broy..."

   "Could it be that you never had any doubts about your ability to survive ten years ago?"

   "Could it be that you didn't feel a little unnatural that you would subconsciously choose Earl Tulip as a suspect and approach him secretly?"

  After hearing what the high priest said, Lottie was stunned.

   Then, she seemed to realize something suddenly, her face turned pale:

   "Dominate!"

   "You...you used the blood demon's **** technique on me!"

   Domination.

   One of the natural magic of the blood race.

  Able to dominate the thoughts of others and modify the memories of others.

   This time, it was the high priest's turn to be surprised:

   "Huh? It seems that the things you have investigated over the years are more than I imagined..."

   "Yes, I did use the **** technique on you, and it started very early."

   "Hehe, Countess Broglie, in a sense, you sisters should all call me a benefactor. After all... If it wasn't for me, you two would have died ten years ago."

   "Sister? Sister is still alive?!"

  Lottie subconsciously stood up.

   "Of course she is still alive, why, do you want to go and see her?"

  The high priest laughed.

  …
