Sir Aven I Blood Pact

I sat in front of the fireplace with Ai Wen, and we didn't speak between us, and it was quiet for a long time.I didn't feel sleepy at all. I simply counted the time. It seems that only a few hours have passed since I stepped into this new world. I haven't even reached 24 hours a day. How can I be sleepy?

"Aiwen, can I ask you a question?" I turned my head to look at the sky outside the window, and then turned back to ask Aiwen. Aiwen looked at me and motioned to me, so I asked, "I remember we came in At that time, the sky was still light red, but now it has become light green, but I can’t even see the moon in the sky, where does the light come from?”

Ai Wen smiled: "That may be an eternal mystery. Since our family moved here, the sky here has been like this. It is a light red light during the day, which we call 'Ming Guang', and it is like this at night. The light green light is called 'glory'. We don't know why it is, it may be God's favor for our blood race, let the outside sun shine in and hurt our people." Ai Wen said quite casually, It can be seen that even if you don't get to the bottom of the matter to find out the truth of the matter, it will not affect your daily life. Maybe this is called a certainty in the dark?

At this time, when he heard something moving at the door, Ai Wen stood up and stared at the door vigilantly: "Who!?" "Master, it's the young one, Mr. Tuo." Waist walked in, he was still holding a big bag in his arms, he didn't know what it was.

Ai Wen put down his guard, watched Tuo Lao close the door and asked, "Are you in touch?"

Tuo Lao nodded, and handed the things in his arms to Ai Wen respectfully with both hands: "I got in touch, at four o'clock, we will meet at the appointed place, and then take us to see Master Mellon."

"Where is the appointment?" Ivan asked, took the things in his hand, looked inside, and was very satisfied.

Tuo Lao ran to the window to look mysteriously, then walked over, took Ai Wen's palm very humbly, and swiped his finger a few times in his palm, Ai Wen nodded understandingly.

"Your Highness and Lord Adrian haven't come back yet?" Tuo Lao looked around and asked.

"Well, not yet." Ivan nodded and looked out the window, "I hope I can come back before the appointed time."

After about an hour of touching, there were a few knocks on the door, very rhythmic, which was the agreed knocking method between us.Sassimon and Zeander came back, both of them looked unhappy, they rested for a while, then Sessimonn said: "We have checked the way to the old church, there is no Who, should be safe."

"It's good to be safe." Ivan nodded and looked at Zeander, who immediately said: "My subordinates went to the edge of the town to check, His Royal Highness Rodolphe has not done anything yet, but after hearing the news, He has returned to Essatan."

Hearing Zeander's words, I couldn't help but wonder: "Is there any other way to get into Essatan?"

"There is another one." Sussymon said, "That passage is set up in Devon County, where the blood priests set up a passage with an enchantment, and special guards are in charge of guarding it." Priests?I heard Sass Yimon say such a word, in this kingdom of the vampires of Elsatan, there are still people like priests?And can set a barrier?It seems that besides the vampires, there are really people with spells in the world?

"Okay, then let's meet the contact person next." Ai Wen said, "Tuo Lao has prepared some clothes for us, and we will set off later."

An hour later, at three o'clock in the morning local time in Essatan, I was dressed and stood in front of Tuo's old house. At this time, the weather outside was still as green as I had seen before. There is still a long time before dawn.Seth Imon, who came out of the room, still looked like a grown man, with his hands in his trouser pockets, as if he was that lofty and mighty noble young master.I turned my head to look at the dress of Sessimon, the style felt like the dress of Louis XIV that Leonardo once played, there was a tie made of white lace in front of the neck, and a lace ribbon buckle There are double-breasted buttons on the black coat, but there are no exaggerated decorations on the clothes, just some relatively gorgeous accessories, of course the most eye-catching one is the one that Sass Emont deliberately hung on the clothes A pocket watch that doesn't move.

I'm a little curious why he pays so much attention to this pocket watch?

On the other hand, on the other hand, I am wearing a suit that is not as aristocratic as Seth Imon, but looks quite gentlemanly.At this time, Aiwen and Zeander also came out, and Aiwen changed into an aristocratic attire similar to that of Seth Imon, which looked more aristocratic than Seth Imon.But Zeander changed into an all-black clothes, plus a black cloak. Obviously, Zeander's purpose is different from ours.Zeander saluted us, put on a black cloak and left first, I knew he must be arranged by Ivan to do something important, and turned to look at the other two who were about to set off.

Ai Wen said, we are going to a place where only gentlemen can enter. If we don’t wear gentleman’s clothes, we will be kicked out.He had a big smile on his face when he said that, and I figured he must be joking.

Tuo Lao did not go with us, but followed Ai Wen's instructions to go to the entrance where we came in and guard there. It seemed that Ai Wen asked him to wait for someone.Then, we stepped into the green moonlight and headed for our destination.

If I remember correctly, where I am walking now, I have a deja vu. ——It was that dream, the dream I had the morning I met Ivan.There is not much difference between what I saw in the dream and what I see now, both are the same depression, the same tranquility, but the moonlight is different. I remember that the moonlight in the dream was deep purple blue, but now it is green.

Tuolao's residence is slightly higher than the main city of Esataner. We walked out of the dense forest along a small mountain road, and we could see it on the hill on the right side of the main city from a distance, under the green light There is a very iconic Gothic building, and Ivan said that is Fort Esomi, where the Pope lives and handles official business.

When we walked into the main city, I found that most of the houses here are wooden frame structures. Sass Yimon told me that the area we are in is a civilian area of ​​the main city, so the buildings are not so gorgeous. In the noble area And the buildings in the Royal Quarter are all Romanesque and Gothic buildings.Although it was just an ordinary building, the street gave me an unusually cold feeling—even the streets of London during Jack the Ripper’s time couldn’t compare to the cold feeling this street gave me—that It is a kind of coldness that penetrates directly into the heart from the soles of the feet, cold to the bone marrow.

Although I am not a particularly timid person, but at this moment, I obviously found that I was shaking, not because of the cold.In Alvin's cemetery, when I went alone, I didn't tremble so much. I think it might be called—fear, but people in the world will never choose to admit that they are afraid, and I am no exception. I don't want to be here My fear was revealed in front of a few vampires with powerful abilities—maybe it's human nature.

The three of us turned several corners all the way, and I was surprised to find that there were almost no people on the way, but when I came in, I saw two or three dirty people squatting in the corner like beggars and civilians. , on the side of the street, staring at us as if watching some rare creatures, but I would like to say that their eyes are like wild beasts seeing their prey, quietly waiting for the time to hunt.

We walked to the door of a tavern that looked quite luxurious on the surface, and there were two strong men in formal suits and leather shoes standing by the door.On the upper left corner above their heads hung a rectangular wooden sign with some unknown characters written on it slantedly - that should be the name of the store, right?The wind blew over, and the old chain on the door plate made a cracking sound, which made me feel a little creepy.

Ai Wen stepped forward to talk to the two strong men. After they said a few words that I couldn't understand, one of them reached out and knocked on the door they were guarding. The light showed a slightly ferocious face, as if someone owed him a lot of money, wishing to put a knife on the debtor's neck and threaten death to pay back the money.

The man said something, his voice was low, as if the voice came out after a few rounds in his throat.Ai Wen also answered him in that similar language.Then the man looked at Ivan, then at me and Seth Imon, and then opened the door to let us in - I think he seemed to welcome us very much, but on the one hand he was very suppressed This kind of excitement made me feel a little weird. His face was half a smile, as if he was deliberately hiding something.

Inside the door is a Western-style bar that we can see on TV, with very traditional high stools, and a variety of goblets hanging on the horizontal cabinets, reflecting back the lights in the room from time to time.However, the people inside are all wearing different styles of gentleman's clothes, and they are very formal-yes, like going to pay homage to their king.Follow the person who opened the door to the inside of the bar - our route is to pass by those customers - when we walked over, what I felt was completely opposite to the eyes of those beggars and commoners Eyes, the first feeling they gave me was vigilance, mixed with a tentative look full of guard.

The man led us into a cubicle, and he didn't say anything, he just gestured to us a closet in that small cubicle very unnaturally.Although the space in the cubicle is not big, it is also well furnished.There are several layers of wine bottles on the top of the closet, and they are not stained with dust. It seems that someone has cleaned them often.Beneath the closet is a dark brown soft sofa facing each other, and a round sandalwood table is placed in the middle, and a blue triangular checkered tablecloth is placed on the table.And this cubicle has only one wooden door as an entrance.

We sat on the sofa separately. The leather of this sofa is a bit different from the kind of leather I know. This leather is cooler, cooler than cowhide.

"Did you just speak the language of vampires?" I asked.

After sitting down, Ivan took down a dark wine bottle from the wall cabinet at the back, he took down three more glasses, and poured some liquid from the bottle into it, which looked like red wine . "En? Just now?" After Ivan finished pouring, he gently moved a cup in front of Seth Imon, and then moved another cup in front of me, "Oh, that's the language of our blood race. Drink it, so You'll be more comfortable."

I picked up the cup, but as soon as it got close to me, I smelled a faint smell like blood, but the smell was not very strong.I looked at the two of them in astonishment: "Is this... blood?"

Aiwen and Seth Yimon didn't speak, just looked at me, and then drank the cup in their hands.Aiwen put down his glass and smiled at me: "This is not blood, it's just a kind of wine made by mixing some resin, red wine, and some secret spices from our clan. We call it blood." 'Blood Yin Wine'."

"The main function of this wine is to replace true blood, and it also has a refreshing effect. This wine was developed by Queen Somiya herself." Sass Yimon continued his words.

"Don't worry, this is not real blood, don't worry drink it." Ivan smiled faintly.

I still sniffed it, and after taking two sips, I found that the taste was quite special, with a faint floral fragrance in it, like the smell of tulips.The taste is really good, I drank it slowly, and felt a very comfortable warmth from my throat all the way to my stomach and intestines. In a short time, I felt that the chilling feeling of walking on that street before was driven away.While I was comfortable, I remembered the name of the person Seth Yimon said—Queen Somiya.
