Sir Aven I Blood Pact

Sessimon called Zeander back, and the four of us walked around the church and quietly came to the woods near the dry well, waiting quietly to watch the movement around us.I feel like we're like hunters sitting on the sidelines and doing nothing but waiting for their prey to come.

I whispered to Tuo Lao: "Tuo Lao, how is Ivan doing?"

Tuo Lao looked at me, shook his head and said: "We don't know about this, but when Master Rodolph came, he said that the young master was dead. But Tuo Lao believed that the young master must be alive." His face was very firm, It can be seen that he has great trust and loyalty to Ivan.

"Shh, here we come." Sass Imon, who had been vigilant all the time, hissed.

I saw two figures coming out of the woods opposite, they were Rebia and Samantha.I was surprised, did Samantha really plan to hand over her sister to Anwar? !

The two of them were talking, sometimes excited and sometimes gentle, and they seemed to be trying to persuade each other, but I heard them speaking in the language of vampires, which I couldn't understand, and was about to ask for help from the people around me, Sasyi Meng suddenly covered my mouth, and whispered in my ear: "Listen carefully, you can understand the language of vampires." Those two sisters, gradually I heard the English I was familiar with from a bunch of unknown voices, I was surprised, what's going on?

I can understand the language of vampires?why? ——I suddenly remembered something——Blood Yin Wine!Yes, after I entered this blood city, the only food that belongs to this world is blood wine. Could it be that this blood wine made me understand the language of vampires?

"Hey, listen, my dear cousin, Rodolphe may have always been so dazzling in your eyes, but now, with the way Essartan is now, you feel that what Rodolphe has done is fundamentally It just runs counter to Queen Somia, let alone the former Pope Donald." Rebia said, her brows were frowned, and she couldn't understand why Samantha's obsession with Anwar existed. , in her opinion, everything Anwar did was wrong, even unforgivable.

"Rebia, listen to me, listen to my cousin, leave Mellon and come to Anwar. With me here, Anwar will not do anything to you." Samantha shook her head, she was serious Want to keep my cousin from harm.

"Cousin, you should see what's going on in Esatanl now!" Rebia's decibel increased a little, and she looked very angry, "There used to be so many residents here, no matter what kind of blood the clansmen are Living together very friendly, how happy those days were! But look at now! How many families have been destroyed and wives scattered under Anwar's rule! I can't do things if you want me to work under this kind of person!"

"Rebia..." Samantha's face was very worried, and I saw hesitation on her face.I don't know what she is hesitating about. "Rebia, if we continue to fight like this, both of us will suffer heavy losses. Listen to me, call Melon, I'll call Anwar, let's sit down and have a good talk, shall we?"

"Call His Royal Highness Mellon to talk to Anwar? Hahaha!" Rebia laughed suddenly, as if mocking Samantha's innocence and stupidity, "Ridiculous! I never knew you were so stupid! Do you think that a despicable person like Anwar will sit down and discuss who should be the Pope? Don’t forget what happened to Pope Tom back then, and his whereabouts are still unknown! Even your own father can You can do it, let alone a half-blood vampire, don't forget that Anwar has always extremely rejected non-pure blood clansmen!"

What Rebia said is true.As far as the methods of Anwar I have seen these days, it can be summed up in four words-a knife hidden in a smile.Talking to Ai Wen with a smile while fighting, this kind of person wants him to sit down and have a good talk with his enemy. It would be strange if he didn’t hold a grand banquet, or come to Xiang Zhuang to dance swords on the spot, Jing Ke assassinates Qin, etc. , this is all possible.

"I really don't understand, what Mellon has for you to maintain in this way." Samantha shook her head, "He's just a half-blood vampire without vampire abilities."

"No, you're wrong." Rebia denied her words, "What His Highness Mellon did was what Queen Somia wanted to achieve back then. They treat everyone equally. This is Essatan Survival rules that should continue."

"Even so, Elsatan is the home of our blood race, and we don't need a person of impure blood to take care of it." Samantha insisted.

"Since you think so, then there is nothing to talk about between us." Rebia glanced at her angrily, as if she saw a different kind, and turned angrily, "Differences do not conspire, we There is nothing to talk about. You want me to bring His Royal Highness Mellon down. I can only say that for his safety, I refuse. Samantha, since you are my favorite cousin, I will not fight with you, but The next time we meet, we will be enemies, and I will not show mercy."

What Rebia said was very firm, but also with a sense of helplessness.Samantha sighed softly, and the next moment, I just stared blankly at her lightning speed, her head was already attached to Rebia's neck, and Rebia gently slipped to the ground.Samantha hugged her: "I'm sorry, Rebia, I can only do this. I hope you can stay away from all this, as far away as possible."

Samantha carried Rebia to the bush next to the dry well, and then blocked Rebia's body with many branches.After Samantha left, we walked out of the woods, Tuo Lao and I rushed to lift Rebia out, while Sessimon knelt aside and stretched out his hand to gently press Rebia's neck.

"Fortunately, I didn't bite the vital part, and there is still salvation." Susimon said softly, "Take her away and go back to the church." We quietly returned to the back of the old church all the way, and hid in the place where I stayed before. The place.

"Didn't Samantha want to kill her?" I asked in surprise.

"I think she just wants to save her." Sessimon shook his head, and said again, "Tuo Lao, go outside and have a look." Tuo Lao groaned and ran out.Seth Yimon stopped the bleeding on Rebia's wound very skillfully. Now I know what he put in the small bag he carried with him. They are all medicines and bandages that I have never seen before. It's all medical stuff.Could it be that he was a doctor before?

"Have you seen enough? Come and help lift her up." Apparently, I always thought he had an eye in the back, always noticing that I was looking at him.I shrugged my shoulders and went over to help. Rebia's wound healed quickly after a potion applied by Sessimon.

I am amazed that it would be great if the current medicine is so powerful, it is simply magic!

"This is called a compound potion. It can only heal the skin on the outside of the wound quickly, but the inside still has to heal slowly. This potion is made from the most precious Javanese songbirds that can only be found in the place where my vampires live, combined with the blood of pure-blooded vampires. Add Burt's venom to make it." Sess Emon was actually explaining the origin of this potion to me, "Rebia's blood is not pure, and he can't heal himself as quickly as the people of pure blood, so he needs to use this A medicine to treat."

"What is a Javanese songbird?" I asked.

"It's similar to the leech in your human world, but it's very small, it can be said to be half the size of a fingernail. This kind of worm is carnivorous. They can't eat anything except carrion. Once they eat it, they will die." Sasyi Meng turned to look at me.I'm in a cool place, bugs eat meat, I know something about it, but vampires also have carnivorous bugs here, which is an anecdote, I never mentioned it in the things about vampires I searched online before, and this kind Presence of carnivorous insects.

"But although they eat meat, they dare not eat us vampires. They are afraid of vampire blood. Sometimes they will come out of the swamp where they live to eat dead poultry. At this time, we will capture them Get up. But these bugs are already on the verge of extinction, except for the priests of Essatan who will breed some, and there are no wild ones outside." Sassimon said.

"Sacrifice church?" I heard Sassimon say this, and asked curiously, "By the way, the passage to and from Esattan is also a spell set by the priest, and there is a priest church here? What is it? use?"

Zeander took off his cloak and put it on Rebia.Sassimon said to me: "The priestly church is equivalent to the role of a priest outside, usually taking care of the major festivals of Essatan or giving lessons to the pope's children. The priestly church is generally composed of a It is composed of a priest and six warlocks, and their main duty is to be responsible for the safety of the two passages of Elsa Tanr."

"Then they can do magic?" I asked.

Sassimon thought for a while and said: "It can't be called magic, but some spells. For them, they only need to maintain the smooth and safe passage. Their spells are also restricted and controlled by the pope and the parliament." Yes, you can't use spells casually."

It seems that there is really magic in this Elsa Tanr.I thought so in my heart, and then I thought of another thing, and asked Seth Imon: "Since there is a priest church, did they also submit to Anwar?"

"No." Seth Yimon shook his head, "As far as I know, the church of priests was disbanded during the reign of Pope Thomas in the year 125 of the Blood Era, and among the seven priests, except the chief priest was executed, the other six priests They were all expelled from Esatan, so there is no priest in Essatan right now."

I am very surprised by this answer. Why was this priestly church disbanded?Members were also expelled?Just when I was wondering, Rebia finally woke up, and after she said some words of gratitude, Seth Yimon said immediately: "They may find Mellon before us, so now you have to take us first Find Mellon."

"Okay." Rebia nodded without hesitation at this time.

Under the guidance of Rebia, after we came out of the dense forest, we went along the villages and towns close to the edge of the dense forest and bypassed several houses in a hidden way. After half an hour, we entered a poor area.Rebia said that when Esataner was first established, this area was originally a gathering place for poor people in Esataner. The residents here were not friendly, and some restless things happened from time to time. The meeting came to manage it, but after a long time, they didn't bother to take care of it, so this place became a mixed place, with pure vampires and mixed blood vampires, most of them were hooligans and the like.

The most dangerous place is the safest place, and it is an ideal hiding place in such a complicated place.I think it would be an ideal place for Mellon to set the meeting place here.

We shuttled secretly between those dilapidated houses and streets, and met no one along the way, and occasionally a few hooligans stood by the roadside.This reminds me of the street scenes often seen in foreign films I have seen in movies, but there are no addicts here.

Rebia took us to an abandoned house without a roof.From the outside, it looks like it is a ruined wreck left over from the flames of war. It has no living value, and there is no place to shelter from the wind and rain. However, it is surprising that in this abandoned house, there is actually a well-preserved one person. tall fireplace.Rebia pushed away all the remains of the table and chairs blocking the fireplace, and we saw that there were still ashes in the fireplace.She looked around, squatted down, and moved the ashes a few times with the wooden bar next to her, revealing a door knocker-like thing, she stretched out her hand and turned the door knocker clockwise, the inner wall of the fireplace automatically opened silently, inside Total darkness.

"Go in quickly." Rebia urged.

Lowering his body, he managed to get into the dark hole.Thinking about whether to look for something like a torch next, Rebia had already closed the entrance to the fireplace, and there was no light in an instant.In the darkness, Rebia seemed to be beating something, and with a couple of snaps, a kerosene lamp was lit on our left.

"Where does this lead?" I asked softly.

"The sewer." Rebias answered me.

"Rebia, if Anwar finds the entrance, how will you escape?" Seth Yimon frowned.

"We will not run away, even if we sacrifice our lives, we will fight back." Rebia said very firmly.

This kind of spirit of preferring death to surrender reminds me of Dong Cunrui's firmness when he blew up the bunker. He would rather blow up the whole bunker with his own life.Perhaps vampires are not the kind of monsters that only know how to suck blood as we thought before. They also have emotions, thoughts, and even a fearless spirit.Maybe vampires are just human apart from their blood-sucking properties.

After we walked through that dark passage for a few minutes, we entered the dark sewer.After walking for about 10 minutes, we came to a large circular hole.Along the way, I realized that the structure of this sewer is very similar to the sewers in European and American countries decades ago in our human world. No, to be precise, it is almost the same as the sewers drawn in the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles comics , The sewer is so big that a person who is 1.7 meters tall can walk upright, even a little tall.Another even bigger discovery is that I can't smell any foul smell in this sewer, as if this is just a water channel, and the water channel at my feet is just ordinary water.This is beyond my expectation. This sewage treatment technology should be very powerful.Who designed the sewers and sewage treatment system?

"Rebia." Seth Yimon, who had been quiet all this time, suddenly called out to Rebia who was walking ahead.

Rebia stopped, turned around in confusion, and looked at him.

"Rebia, tell me, what kind of sanctions were imposed on Aiwen in the parliament back then." Seth Imon asked, his expression looked particularly serious in the dark sewer, and Seth Imon under the light and shadow seemed to be He is many years older, and his tone is not a question, but more like a question.

What parliament?What kind of council did Aiwen have before he fell asleep?Is it like the congresses and parliaments in foreign countries?Rebia did not answer him directly, but turned a corner and said: "I was not a member of the parliament that year, so I had no way of knowing the content of the parliament."

"But your father is an elder." Sess Emon said, and it could be heard that he was pressing Rebia step by step.

"Even if my father is an elder, he would not tell me such an important matter. This violates the elder's confidentiality agreement with the council." Rebia replied.

"Rebia." Seth Imon's tone suddenly became low.

The eyes of the two people stared at each other under the dim light source, which seemed to be a silent battle, and the comparison was the concentration between the two parties.Rebia looked at him, and suddenly said with a little relief: "There are two kinds of sanctions on the elders in the Somia Council. The first is to deprive them of their status as elders in the clan, and continue to live as ordinary nobles. All its rights in Essatan. The second is..." Rebia paused for a while, and then said: "The second is to remove his blood lineage and lock him into the Tower of Judgment to accept the authority from the Lord of the Sun. baptism."

After listening to what she said, they were all quiet, but I was very puzzled: "A contract can allow Aiwen to get this kind of sanction?"

"In Essatane, even the pope must obey the decision of the Somia Council, and the Esomia Blood Badge formulated by the Somia Council is the highest law that all our people must obey." Sass Yimon said, "Blood Medal No. 80 Seven Articles on the ancient contract between vampires and humans clearly stipulates that any vampires and humans are prohibited from using ancient contracts to form a contract. Once the contract is concluded, the vampire is regarded as There are only two sanction methods for betraying the tribe, deprivation of their blood clan status and death penalty in the sunshine."

"Either way, it's a great tragedy for vampires." Tuo Lao shook his head and said.

"Why?" I frowned.If this crime is so serious, wouldn't Aiwen violate the blood badge again?You must know that he said before that he made a contract with me as a human being, although I have no idea when I made the contract with him.

"Then, what kind of sanctions did the parliament decide?" I asked, it seems that Rebia didn't say which one was used just now.

Rebia was silent. For a while, I thought she was crying, because I seemed to hear a slight sniffling sound, and later I realized that it was the sound of water flowing from the sewer near my feet. "The elders of the council chose the first option for the sake of the Pope." Rebia said weakly, "But for some reason, on the day the council announced the sanction, the Pope should have personally announced the sanction result. Instead, it was announced by Rodolph, and the result he said was completely opposite to the result of the previous parliamentary decision, and he made the then law elder Richard Hogan change the regulations on the contract in the blood badge without authorization. ...The final sanction given to the elder was to deprive him of his vampire blood and carry out the Rizhao death sentence together with the contractor—"

"Okay, let's go first. Time is running out. Rebia quickly lead the way." Seth Yimon stopped what she wanted to say next.So, we continued to walk forward, and within 10 minutes, Rebiya took us to a place where a huge disc was installed on the wall. The disc should be the gate of the sewer. It seems that the gate Behind is the exit.The shape of the gate is quite weird. There should be no handle at the place where there should be a round handle, but there are round and round grooves. It is like a toy that uses balance to control the movement of the ball, but this The toy is currently hung on the wall at ninety degrees.The grooves on the gate are circled and circled, which looks like a maze. In the grooves, I did not find a sphere-like opening, but one of the grooves above. There is a small circular hole in the groove, and there is also a circular black hole in the middle.

Rebia stretched out a finger and inserted it into the small hole, then she pulled out her own finger, and to her surprise, a small snake head came out following her finger!Moreover, the snake had bitten Rebia's finger, but Rebia didn't care about it. When she pulled her finger from the snake's mouth, I saw some blood remained in the snake's mouth, and then , the snake head crawled all the way along the groove, as if it knew the route very well, it easily found a correct path from the intricate maze groove, leading directly to the black hole in the middle, just after the snake head entered After the black hole, we heard a series of 'clicking' sounds, and the gate gradually opened.

It turns out that the key to open the gate is the blood of a non-pure-blooded vampire. This is a very unexpected setting, but in this way, the pure-blooded vampire Anwar and the others cannot open the gate. This is also true for Mellon and the others. very safe.

As soon as the gate was opened, someone poked his head out from inside, saw that it was Rebia, and beckoned us nervously to go in quickly.After entering the gate, the torches on the walls on both sides had been lit, and we stood on a passage, with several guards holding long swords standing on both sides.

"Oh! Your Highness Hadley!" The person who opened the door asked someone to close the gate, and when he saw Sess Imon clearly, he immediately looked very respectful, "Rebia has been away for so long, I thought I couldn't come back Yes. It turned out that His Royal Highness Hadley saved her. It's really great." These people have always used the honorific title for Sass Yimon, is it true that Sass Yimon's status in Essabal is really very high?But why do people with such a high status have been living in the outside world?

At this time, a man who was not tall and not thin walked quickly from the end of the passage. His beard was in a mess and he probably hadn't shaved it for a long time. He was very happy when he saw us: "His Royal Highness! Bea, it's great to have you all back!"

Sass Eamon didn't give them time to ask their relatives, and directly entered the topic: "Where is Mellon, I want to see him."

"Your Highness, His Highness Mellon is waiting for you." The man said again, "Please."

Mellon is waiting for Seth Imon?So Mellon had expected us to come to him?Then the previous worry about Mellon's hiding place being discovered by Anwar was unnecessary?Because Mellon is not in the sanctuary at all, he has already come out of the sanctuary, so why do we have to go to the sanctuary after the tavern incident?I don't want to continue to think too much. The question marks in my head are too much to deal with one by one. Now I should follow them and take one step at a time.But what I'm most worried about now is Aiwen. I don't know if he has escaped Anwar's clutches, but I am sure of one thing. My instinct tells me that Aiwen must still be alive now.I don't know when my intuition will give me so much confidence in Ivan.
