Tome of Blood

  Chapter 261-111-Farewell to the Earl of Blood

  Falling Star Kingdom, Red Apple Castle.

   Earl Ulster, wearing a mage's robe, is nestling in his magic research room, concentrating on studying the structure of the inscription enchantment.

   This is an interest that Yourst has cultivated for more than a thousand years, and it is also his daily pastime and indulging entertainment.

  As a long-lived species, one must find some fun in a long lifespan to offset the mental wear and tear caused by the erosion of the years.

   On the display shelf in the back row of the magic research room, there are all kinds of strange magic props, all of which are the works of this blood earl who is keen on alchemy and enchanting.

  Suddenly, a blinding light flashed, and the half-embedded inscription in front of Yurst exploded.

  A translucent shield appeared in front of Yurst, easily blocking the explosive elements.

  Urst waved his hand to disperse the drifting smoke, cursing and saying:

   "It's really unlucky, I failed again!"

   "How did Nicholas do it back then? He was able to perfectly balance the two opposing elements in the magic energy structure..."

   "It's a pity... It's been hundreds of years and there is no news about him. It seems that some church really chopped it up..."

   "No, even if he escaped the hunt back then, I'm afraid he has already turned into a dry bone now? After all... with his character, even if he died, he would not choose Lich transformation or reincarnation..."

   Seems to be recalling something, Yurst sighed, regretfully.

  The study of magic inscriptions is a brain-burning job.

   There are not many people who regard this kind of thing as fun, even among mages.

  For more than a thousand years, the only one who can make Ulster, the Earl of Blood, a confidant and opponent is the well-known legendary mage hundreds of years ago in the human world.

   But alas, the world is fair.

  Even though the popularity of supernatural power has allowed humans, a race with both wisdom and reproductive advantages, to achieve an explosion of overall strength, the lifespan of human superhumans is almost the shortest among all intelligent races.

  Thinking about it now, Urst estimated that the grass on Nicholas's grave would be three meters high.

   "Hey, when this turmoil is over, go to East Unite when you have time. It's all about sweeping his grave."

   With a dark sigh, Yurst used cleaning magic to remove the residue of magic failure, and continued the experiment.

  However, at this moment, a call originating from blood and soul suddenly acted on him.

  Feeling this familiar sense of calling, Yurst's heart skipped a beat:

   "This...this is..."

   Before he could react, the crimson mist spread, and accompanied by a sense of weightlessness, he returned to the majestic and solemn castle again.

  Seeing the beautiful figure faintly visible under the mist on the throne, Yurst swallowed subconsciously, and then hurriedly knelt down and said:

   "You... Yourst... I have seen Your Majesty the True Ancestor!"

   "Your Majesty the Great True Ancestor, you summoned me... Is there anything I need to do?"

  On the Throne of Blood, Charlotte looked at the Earl of Blood wearing a robe and holding a magic flask in his hand, and smiled lightly:

   "Yurst, it seems...you have been living a leisurely life these days, and you have started to study magic inscriptions."

  Yourst's expression was a little awkward:

"Eh... Your Majesty the True Ancestor, you also know that just as you like to travel around the world in various identities, the long-lived species like us can only relieve the boredom of the long years by having some fun. "

  Take various identities and travel around the world...

  Charlotte moved slightly in her heart, remembering the hobby of the ancestor of the blood race.

   "Okay, let's not mention your hobbies, how is the work I asked you to do?"

   Charlotte asked.

   "You mean to find the broken pages of the holy book for you, right? I've done it! I've done it!"

   "In the past few months, I have been contacting my friends in the clan to inquire about the whereabouts of the remaining pages of the holy tome, and I really collected some!"

   Yurst said respectfully.

  Charlotte's mood lifted:

   "Oh? Take a look."

   "Your Majesty, please wait a moment. Well... please allow me to use space magic here!"

   Yurst said.

  Charlotte nodded slightly, and consciously opened up Urst's use of magic in the spiritual world, while Urst stretched out his hand to outline, chanted a spell, and summoned a door of space.

  He took out seven crimson pages from the different space, and offered them respectfully with both hands:

   "Your Majesty the True Ancestor, this is what I have gained in the past few months. I exchanged them from various friends in the clan..."

  Seeing the seven broken pages that Yurst took out, Charlotte was slightly happy.

  The Earl of Blood deserves to be the Earl of Blood. In just three or four months, he has already found so many broken pages of the holy scriptures.

   You know, the Gorefiend Cult of Boulder had collected for countless years and only got 23 broken pages of the sacred book!

"good."

  She nodded in satisfaction, stretched out her hand and gave a light hook.

Following her movements, the broken pages of the holy scriptures in Yurst's hand immediately flew up, like a child who found a home, and flew towards Charlotte happily, and finally, in a crimson light, with Charlotte The previous holy scriptures of blood merged into one.

   Seeing this scene, Yurst's expression became more respectful.

  He took a deep breath and continued:

   "Your Majesty the True Ancestor, besides this, there are a few remaining pages of the Holy Book that I have not yet obtained, and it will take some time to get them."

   "You know, even I don't dare to collect these pages openly, which will make some people associate against you... So, I have to take my time."

   "Besides, this thing is too evil... Ahh, it's too mysterious. Few people really collect them, so I don't find many."

   "But I also inquired about some news. It is said that the traitor in Nessim seems to have a lot of treasures... But unfortunately, we can't move him yet."

  After listening to Urst's words, Charlotte's heart moved slightly:

   "Oh? Listen to your tone... It seems that the Duke of Blood who fell to the Blood Demon Cult was not severely punished by your elders?"

   Yurst sighed:

"Yes, I don't know what the Great Elder thinks, even though I reported Maxim's crimes to Lord Yorok, even though Lord Yorok reported Maxim's betrayal to the elders, he still did not Strictly punished, but simply ordered to ground..."

   "Maxim is too cunning, he didn't leave any evidence at all, and the fleet was wiped out by him in advance."

   "The evidence is insufficient, and the Presbyterians did not punish him severely in the end."

"However, he doesn't feel well either. You destroyed his incarnation that he had polished for many years, which is enough for him to suffer for a long time. I heard from Lord Yorok that his aura was obviously weak during the meeting of the elders. Quite a few! And now, he can't stop Lord Yorok's actions for the time being."

  After listening to Urst's words, Charlotte was thoughtful.

  A duke elder who was almost certain to have colluded with the Gorefiend Cult to attack and kill the earl was not given a heavy sentence in the end...

  It seems that the division within the Nice clan is much more serious than she imagined.

   After thinking about it, Charlotte asked again:

   "Yourst, the operation to infiltrate Castel was once presided over by you, right? That being the case, you should also have some secular armed forces, right?"

  After listening to Charlotte's words, Yurst suddenly trembled, and stammered:

   "Your... Your Majesty! Although I did preside over the infiltration of Castel, I have stopped it all now!"

   "At that time... I didn't know that you were behind Castel..."

   "Not only that, I have also cooperated with the censorship of nobles in the Castel territory in the past few months, please learn from me!"

   "Okay, it's been so long, I don't want to pursue anything. Tell me, do you have any secular power that you can mobilize?"

  Charlotte shook her head.

   "You... mean the army? Well... there are indeed some, what do you want to do? Do you want us to support Castel?"

   Yurst asked curiously.

  Charlotte nodded slightly:

"You are very smart."

   "It is inconvenient for me to intervene in secular disputes. It is indeed more appropriate for you to do some things."
