Tome of Blood

  Chapter 178-28-Letters from Quixote

  Nice?

   Guanzhan's Clan Nice?

  Charlotte's eyes moved slightly.

  She didn't expect that she would directly pull out two blood clans just by asking two questions!

  Charlotte of the Ness clan still has some understanding, especially after reading the information provided by Anna, the Witch of Premonition.

   This is the most low-key and mysterious blood clan among the six major clans of the blood clan. It controls the bloodline inheritance of the way of apprehension, and is often active in the Luoxing Kingdom and Luna Island.

   That's right, Luna Island.

  Because of the unique first embrace mechanism, any intelligent life may become a vampire, and there is also a vampire on Luna Island, where the Elf Alliance is located, and it is a vampire of serious elf blood.

  The Ness clan was therefore divided into two branches, the Fallen Star Kingdom and the Luna Island.

  Both branches consider themselves to be the most authentic Nessian orthodoxy. Among them, the Falling Star Kingdom lineage is more enthusiastic about lurking in the human world, and is more active, while the Luna Island lineage is more or less influenced by the elves, relatively speaking, it is more indifferent to the world, and everyone is dying.

  The relationship between them is both a competitive relationship and a cooperative relationship. Each has its own Duke of Blood, and they also believe in the same blood prince—Kuchy the Stargazer.

   When dealing with the outside world, especially when fighting with other blood clans, they will unite and become one with each other.

   Thinking of Quixote's surprise when he recognized Sebastian's elf identity just now, Charlotte moved slightly in his heart and asked:

   "Behind you... is the Nas clan of the Fallen Star Kingdom? The Nass branch of Luna Island is also involved in the matter of the Castel Mithril Mine?"

   Hearing Charlotte's question, Quixote trembled even more, but he didn't deny it.

  Charlotte knew she was asking the right question.

  She recalled all the information she knew about the blood race, and continued to ask:

   "The Ness clan... why did they intervene in Castel's Mithril Mine?"

  After hearing what Charlotte said, Quixote trembled and foamed at the mouth:

   "Nes...Nes took a fancy to Castel's mithril...they...they need mithril...a lot of mithril..."

  Charlotte frowned slightly.

   This is nonsense. It is definitely for Mithril to intervene in the Mithril mine, but what is important is their purpose behind it.

   "Why do they need a large amount of Mithril? To what extent have they penetrated Castel? What is their ultimate purpose?"

   she asked again.

   This time, Quixote twitched more violently, but did not answer.

  Charlotte's frown deepened.

  She knew that this reaction meant that her question had touched the taboo in the soul contract of the other party.

  If you continue to press the question, it may directly lead to the death of the other party.

  The soul contract on Quixote should not belong to divine magic, and Charlotte has not received information about divine magic countermeasures.

  She has no choice but to stop this issue for the time being with this kind of contract.

   After thinking for a while, Charlotte changed direction and continued to ask:

   "The Vadrat clan has a detached status in the Kingdom of Kolia, and has always disdained to join forces with other blood clans, let alone seek refuge."

   "You Valdrat... why do you work for the Ness clan?"

  The Vadrat clan should be one of the two most influential clans in the civilized world among the six blood clans.

  They are mainly active in the Kingdom of Koria, secretly controlling the real ruling power of the Kingdom of Koria, and are reverently called the Blood Court by the informed nobles of Koria.

  Although the Kolia Kingdom also belongs to the sphere of influence of the Holy Royal Court, the belief of the Holy Royal Court only exists among the people, and has long existed in name only among the real ruling class.

But the weird thing is, I don’t know whether the Blood Court of the Kingdom of Koria is very cooperative with the spread of the Holy Royal Court’s belief, or whether the two parties have secretly reached some unknown agreement. The Holy Royal Court has always been concerned about the affairs of the Kingdom of Koria Open one eye and close one eye.

  Charlotte still knows this knowledge from Sebastian.

When the elf butler was traveling in Koria Kingdom, because he didn't know the real situation, he angered the pure white witch of Valdrat at the blood party, and was hunted down by the whole Valdrat for more than ten years. It was not until he fled to the New Moon Kingdom that he was temporarily freed from...

   It can be said that Vadrat is relatively better off among the six major blood clans, and is also the most powerful clan.

  Charlotte looked at Quixote, waiting for his answer.

  Jikede showed pain on his face and tremblingly said:

   "I... am the exile of Valdrat..."

   Exile?

  Charlotte frowned slightly.

"Exile is Vader's name for the exiled people. He should have betrayed Vadrat, and he may have been a victim of Koria's internal political struggle. In short...he should be Vader who lost power and was exiled. Rat blood."

   Sebastian explained in due course.

  Charlotte understood and nodded slightly.

  She looked at the piles of mithril in the cave, and asked insincerely:

   "Where are these Mithril... going to end up?"

  However, this time, Quixote trembled like never before.

  I saw the whites of his eyes rolling, trembling all over, the veins on his face were bulging, his throat made a sound, and the breath on his body began to become disordered quickly.

not good!

  Charlotte's expression changed slightly.

   This is a taboo that directly touches the deepest level of the soul contract, and it is a sign of contract backlash!

  She flashed in front of Quixote almost instantly, stretched out her hand and placed it on his forehead, trying to fight against the imprisonment contract in his soul.

   However, it was too late.

   "These Mithril... are to be shipped to... Castel's..."

  Jikede twitched a few times, completely lost the look in his eyes, fell to the ground, and died on the spot.

  Charlotte's eyes sank slightly.

  The soul contract on Quixote... was more domineering than she had imagined, and it was just a little slower to kill Quixote.

   "It is the true spirit contract of the blood race, one of the most overbearing soul contracts in Miria."

  Nice the black cat stepped forward with a solemn and authentic expression.

   "Yes, I have heard of this kind of contract before, and it is said that it is the same as the notorious servant's oath."

  Sebastian also nodded solemnly.

  Nice:…

  The expression of a certain black cat froze instantly.

  Sebas didn't realize that he had accidentally stepped on a cat's pain point again, but murmured to himself in doubt:

   "He is willing to sign the contract of the true spirit...Even if he is an exile, he is still the proud Valdrat. What benefits did the Ness clan promise him?"

   Unable to understand, Sebastian shook his head, and said to Charlotte respectfully:

   "Master, it seems that the place where these mithrils are finally transported is the key to the plan of the Ness clan."

   "The headquarters of the Ness clan is relatively close to Castel. Now it seems... I am afraid that they have already taken advantage of the decline of the Castel family to penetrate the earl's territory."

  Charlotte nodded slightly.

  Her judgment is the same as Sebastian's.

   As an exile, Quixote was obviously incorporated by the Ness clan.

   Although the other party's various reactions and answers did not directly answer her doubts, they have shown that the dark force that affects the attitude of the local nobles in Castel towards her is probably the blood clan's Ness clan!

  The Ness clan sneaked into Castel, and it is very likely that some nobles were incorporated.

  They are likely planning something in Castel.

  Thinking of this, Charlotte narrowed her eyes slightly.

  It seems that she must pay more attention to the banquet in a few days later, and clean up the traitors in her family.

   Also, the Ness clan...

  Charlotte's eyes flickered slightly:

   "Sebas, when you go back, investigate the flow of Mithril in the territory in recent years, especially in the black market."

   Although Quixote is dead, he pointed out the direction for Charlotte.

   Find out where Mithril has gone, and maybe you can know the secret of the Ness clan.

  The reason why the Ness clan, which has always been aloof from the world, extended its tentacles to Castel uncharacteristically, may have something to do with the secret of their plan.

   And that... not just because Castel is rich in Mithril!

   "At your command."

   Sebas put his right hand on his chest and said.

   After speaking, he took the initiative to step forward again, turned over Quixote's body, took back the pages of the cursed book in his hand, and at the same time did not forget to look through his pockets.

   Quixote died, and the last dragon scale on his face fell off completely.

  After being turned over by Sebastian, a pale and handsome face was revealed.

   Seeing that cheek, the little werewolf Noah, who was still kneeling on the ground, couldn't help but exclaimed:

   "Ah! It's the chief steward of the mining workshop! He is the chief steward of the mining workshop, Mr. Ked!"

  The chief steward of the mining workshop?

  Charlotte glanced at the little werewolf, and her heart moved slightly.

  As Castel's biggest cash cow, the appointment of the chief steward of the mining workshop must be decided by a meeting of all nobles with dividend rights, and the final decision is made by the Earl of Castel.

  Of course, the Earl of Castel has been vacant for several years.

Although Charlotte has been the little earl in name for more than ten years, her father did not have time to identify her as the heir before her death in battle, and before she succeeded to the throne, her grandmother intervened in the management of the earldom, and she was not favored by the nobles of the territory. Supported, so it is not recognized.

  Grandma Cheap had obviously given up control of Castel's territory at the beginning, so I'm afraid she has long stopped participating in the appointment of stewards. In fact, these powers have long been completely controlled by the nobles of the territory.

   In other words, if Quixote can be in charge, the nobles of Castel may be infiltrated more seriously than Charlotte imagined.

   "Master, the remaining pages of your holy tome."

   While meditating, Sebastian respectfully offered up the remaining pages of the holy tome.

  Charlotte nodded slightly, and took it with satisfaction. At the same time, she was surprised to find that there was also a small and exquisite wooden box with the broken pages of the holy scriptures, with exquisite thorn and rose patterns carved on it.

  That’s right, it’s the pattern of thorns and roses drawn by Charlotte when she decided on the Holy Emblem...

  But she was sure that the pattern on the wooden box had nothing to do with her. Considering the origin of the thorn rose pattern, it should be an item from the Kolia Kingdom.

   "This is something I found from Quixote, and it was held tightly in his arms. It may contain some key information."

  Sebas said respectfully.

  Charlotte nodded slightly, and opened the wooden box.

  The next second, melodious music suddenly sounded from the wooden box, and a pair of lifelike clever dolls appeared in the wooden box, dancing to the music.

  Charlotte and the others were startled, it turned out to be a music box.

  There is no information in the music box, only a gorgeous badge and a piece of parchment that has turned yellow and has been carefully folded.

  Charlotte first picked up the badge and looked at it. It was a shield-shaped badge depicting a ferocious dragon.

   "This should be the family crest of Quixote, and he should also be a nobleman in Koria."

   Sebas judged.

  Charlotte nodded, put away the badge and picked up the parchment, and found that it was a letter that had not been sent.

  She opened and browsed:

   "To my dear Sissy,

  When I wrote you this letter, I was already in a foreign country, in the dead of night, and it was also a time when I missed you very much. At this moment, there is only you in my heart.

  Knowing you is my luck, the longer I get along with you, the stronger the attachment, the warmth of your hug, the passion of kissing you, the romance of walking hand in hand with you, the happiness of being together with you...

  My love, I have successfully suppressed the backlash of the power of the black dragon... When I come back, after I complete the agreement with Ness, I will eventually return to Koria and take back everything that belongs to us.

  All glory belongs to Fector!

   Love you Quixote. "

  After reading the letter, Charlotte put it away, feeling a little embarrassed.

   It seems that Ji Kede is also a blood clan with a story, but unfortunately... he was finally lost in the power of the black dragon, and he couldn't even tell who he was.

   "Sebas, have you heard of Fector?"

   Thinking about a word that was mentioned in the letter that seemed to be a surname, Charlotte asked.

   "Fector? It seems to be the royal family name of the previous generation of the Kolia Kingdom, but it has been overturned for many years."

   Sebas frowned and said.

   After finishing speaking, he asked curiously:

   "Master, what is written on it?"

   "It's not intelligence, it's Quixote's personal letter. Perhaps his exile is related to the political struggle in the Koria Kingdom."

  Charlotte shook her head and handed the letter to Sebas.

   Sebastian browsed around and sighed:

   "It seems that he used to be a blood clan who supported the previous generation of the Kolya royal family, and he may still be in love with a certain noble daughter of the royal family. Sissi... Could it be Princess Sissi from the previous dynasty of the Kolya Kingdom?"

  Charlotte's heart moved slightly:

   "The Fect family is human?"

   "Yes, at least the vast majority of people are."

   Sebastian said, handing the letter back.

   "The love between the blood race and the human race..."

  Charlotte put away the letter, thoughtful.

  She didn't throw away Quixote's things, but kept them properly.

   Then, Charlotte looked at the living corpses in the cave who were still kneeling towards her.

  Estimated that Agnes, the blood **** the other side of the Book of the Dead, has probably been drained, so this time Charlotte did not use the power of the Book of the Dead, but communicated with the power of the blood, and sighed softly:

   "Your pain...relieved."

  Speaking, she gently opened her arms, and a little bit of crimson brilliance sprinkled in the cave. The miners trembled slightly, and the dark green flames in their eye sockets seemed to be more agile.

   I saw them bowing to Charlotte, their bodies collapsed on their own, and quickly turned into piles of dry bones.

   A breeze blew, and Charlotte saw the remnants of the miners slowly lift into the air and gradually dissipate.

   Abandoned people like zombie miners are not normal undead, and their souls have been desecrated spiritually. Even if they have faith, they cannot return to the kingdom of the gods.

  For them, returning their souls to heaven and earth is the best destination...

  The little werewolf Noah looked at the dissipated zombie miners with a sad face.

  He pursed his lips and said with a lonely expression:

   "I didn't expect the manager of the mining workshop to be behind the scenes..."

   "It turns out that the black dragon my brother believed in turned out to be like this..."

  Black Dragon?

  Charlotte and Sebastian looked at each other with strange eyes.

  Nice chuckled:

   "Black Dragon? Hey, little Noah, he's not the black dragon your brother has seen."

   "Your brother shouldn't have lied to you. There was indeed a giant dragon here, and it was indeed a black dragon."

   "The power of the black dragon...hehe, think about it, where does his black dragon power come from?"
