Sir Aven I Blood Pact

We were just about to go in, but we were stopped by the captain of the guard. He said in a very tangled way: "Your Highnesses, please forgive me for being unreasonable. Although my subordinates don't know what happened, the appearance of His Excellency Pope George It really shocked everyone. Now, without the consent of the parliament, His Excellency, Pope George, first ordered the knights to arrest His Royal Highness Mellon on the charge of 'unorthodox people cannot manage Essatane'."

"What about the Marquis of Petra?" Sass Yimon asked.

"This, none of the elders said anything about it." The captain of the guard shook his head.

"It seems that Donald is in control of the parliament," said Seth Imon.

"So what do we do now?" I asked.

"Go in and see the situation." Ivan exhaled, his expression became very heavy.Thinking about it, we don't know the current situation inside, whether it is good or bad, and we only know what happened when we go inside.When our group walked into Fort Esomie step by step with a vigilant heart, sure enough, the inside has become different, the security has been strengthened several times, and the atmosphere here seems to be different.

"Why do I feel that the smell here is very weird?" Sessimon sniffed and said.

"I have the same feeling." I nodded, "I always feel like something is going to happen, which is not good."

"Let's see." Ai Wen's face was also quite ugly, it seems that we all have the same idea.If this George appears now, there must be nothing good.

We walked to the inner square of Fort Essomi, where the crowd was even denser. At a glance, nobles and civilians were present, but no one at the scene spoke, and they were all silent. Everyone's face was blank. , or doubts, more of a kind of bewilderment.We walked all the way, and people gave way to us all the way. When we came to the platform in front of the square, there was a tall man in luxurious clothes standing majestically on the platform.And all the people under his line of sight stood there very tacitly and quietly, as if they were worshiping. I saw expressions of respect, surprise, surprise and even admiration in the eyes of those people, which made me I feel that the person in front of me, if there is no accident, is George Donald, the founder of Essatan.

When we walked under the platform, the footsteps we stopped were accompanied by the whispers and gasps of those tribesmen. They were very quiet, like decorations on the stage, quietly waiting for the start of the drama and Finish.

"The people in the audience are Irwin Salz Leyden, Sass Imon K. Hadley, and Xiao Jizhe from China, Mr. Xiao?" The man on the stage broke the silence, the voice As if he came out of hell, maybe he hasn't talked to anyone for a long time, his voice is very rough, it feels like a robot talking, with no temperature, very monotonous voice.

"George Donald?" Sessimon frowned and looked up at the people on the stage.

"It seems to be him," whispered Peter. "What is he doing?"

"Shhh." Sally booed him. She and Tuo Lao respectfully stood aside with their heads bowed like everyone else. It seemed that the George man would be able to overwhelm the audience by just standing up. The monarch will have an aura.It's just that we feel that George doesn't just mean standing on the stage to suppress all the subjects. Behind his smiling eyes, there is a faint evilness revealed, which makes people very uncomfortable.

"Pope George." Ivan seemed to be digesting the fact that the person in front of him was George. He paused for a few seconds before finally saluting to Donald. He turned around, and finally landed on Ai Wen's face, but he turned out to be very, very simple, as if seeing a stranger, he pulled the corner of his mouth and smiled. "I heard what Adrian and Hogan said about your matter." George said, "You have done a good job and eliminated the villains who endangered my blood city."

"The Great Pope praised it absurdly." Ivan didn't know what gourd was being sold in George's words, his heart tightened, and he answered very cautiously.While maintaining that fake smile, George walked down towards us. When he stood in front of the few of us, he put his hands in front of him casually, with a very casual look: "This Rodolph's rebellious patricide is already an unacceptable behavior in the world. Now that this person is dead, it can be regarded as his own retribution. My blood city does not need a clansman like him to exist, but you have done a great deed. matter."

What he said seemed to be praising us, but there was a faint murderous look in these words. For some reason, I always felt that the George in front of me was not like the generation of wise kings who fled with his clan and established a new country, and he has been He called Esatan the City of Blood, which was the name he used when he first founded it.

"My lord pope," Ivan didn't intend to spend any more time recalling Anwar's matter, so he changed the subject, "I don't know Mellon—"

Before Aiwen finished speaking, George said: "But although you have done great deeds, you still violated the laws of my blood city. As a pure-blooded vampire noble, you entered into a contract with humans without authorization and violated my vampire law." The purpose of the clan is actually the greatest responsibility. As the number one pope in Blood City, I am duty-bound to come and take these people to the Tower of Judgment, and execute the death sentence with that half-blood kid three days later."

As soon as his words fell, the guards came up and pointed at us with weapons, everyone was stunned for a while.Even the elders who were still standing on the stage were stunned. I'm afraid they didn't even know that George had this drama.Petra and Fletcher glanced at each other at this time, and Jerry Parkinson hurriedly took the first step before they spoke: "The Great Pope! This Aiwen and the others saved the entire Essatan, thanks a lot No, the Grand Pope can't do that."

George squinted at him, and said to the guard, "Oh, you? Come, arrest him too."

Jerry was arrested, and Fletcher was about to speak, but Petra grabbed him and motioned him not to speak at this time.After Jerry was caught, he still wanted to resist, but Ivan stopped him: "Uncle Jerry!" He looked at George: "My lord, this matter is caused by me alone, and it has nothing to do with Uncle Jerry, please His Excellency the Pope has let my uncle go."

George didn't intend to let Jerry go, and said, "He fell in love with a woman from my vampire family, and was later turned into a vampire. This guy who messed up my bloodline, I don't punish him, how can he convince the public?"

Seth Imon pulled the corner of Ivan's clothes, Ivan turned his head to look at him, Seth Imon shook his head slightly, Ivan suddenly stopped talking.

We were imprisoned by George in the cell on the first floor of the Tower of Judgment without any accident.Of course, the only ones who were locked in were me, Ivan, Seth Imon, Peter, and Jerry, and Mellon who was locked in before, and Sally and Tolao who were standing in the crowd at that time because Zeander received Aiwen's order pulled them into the crowd in time and survived. This is something we are relieved, at least there are still people outside, but we don't know what method Zeander and the others will think of to rescue us.

The Tower of Judgment has always been the place most dreaded by the vampires of Elsatan.This tower is built on the top of the highest mountain in Essatane, only in this place, there will be a beam of extremely strong sunlight in the early morning of the [-]th day of every month, and this tower is built for this beam of sunlight Yes, the entire tower forms an enveloping building, and the tower has no top, but is hollow.When the sun's beams shine down, the round-shaped cells in the tower will be covered, and there is no shelter at all.This is the biggest reason why vampires fear this tower.

We were locked in six separate cells. Above our heads was the dark night, which was completely different from the previous ones. It seemed that there was a strong smell of blood hidden in the cold night sky.

"What should we do now?" Peter asked helplessly.

Seth Imon stood under the moonlight, looked up and said, "George appears at this time, there must be a big problem."

Ivan leaned against the wall, and also looked at the night above his head: "We still haven't found out why George hid and fell asleep, and we don't know what he is going to do."

"What are you talking about?" Jerry didn't know what we meant, and looked at us very blankly.

"Uncle Jerry," Ivan said to him, "I will tell you the specific situation in the future. At present, I can only say that George has a big problem, and it will definitely be detrimental to Essatane."

"This, how is this possible?!" Jerry was surprised by Aiwen's words, "He fled here with his people back then, the first generation of Pope, why did he do things that are not good for the country he built? ? What good is he?"

"It's about, what good is it for him?" Suss Emond also asked back.

"I have read George's self-report and the notes written by Taylor." At this time, I said, "From these two books, there seem to be some things that we don't know, and these things Taylor and George are It’s very metaphorical, and it doesn’t seem like it’s going to be too straightforward.”

"What do you see?" Seth Eamon asked me.

"Taylor mentioned George and Somia in his notes, and he said that George didn't know why God opened a window after closing a door on a person." I said, "And he mentioned Somia That's what he said when he was talking to Somia. I agree with Somia surprisingly, but I don't know why Somia would lie to the people. Don't you think it's a bit strange when Taylor said these two people? "

When they heard me finish speaking, they immediately felt that these two sentences were a bit strange, but for a while they didn't notice any problem. "Taylor said that Somia lied to the people?" Peter asked in surprise, "Then what did she lie?"

I shook my head and said, "That's the problem. Taylor didn't write directly. Moreover, when George wrote his self-report, he also wrote very metaphorically. He seemed to be hiding something, but he wanted to say something. That book The title of the self-reported book is "The Heart Sealed in Dust", and I think it is talking about George's own heart."

There was nothing to say all night, we didn't know what this George was going to do, but two days later it was fifteen, and we still had time to escape.Just when we couldn't think of a way, the cell door was opened, and it was Sally who came in.A guard said to Sally with a very helpless expression: "Miss Fletcher, you have to hurry up, otherwise you will be discovered by the Pope, and I am afraid that the subordinates will not escape the blame."

"Okay. I see." Sally nodded, and after the guards left, Sally hurried to the door of Seth Imon's cell: "Your Highness Hadley! Are you alright?" I asked for a moment A little surprised, this Sally actually ran to ask Seth Imon if he was okay? "It's okay." Seth Imon's eyes suddenly turned slightly embarrassed, and I accidentally caught it. It seems that this Seth Imon is also embarrassed sometimes.

"Sally, Sally." Ivan said to Sally, "What's going on outside?"

"Ah, Your Highness Salz!" Sally seemed to have just seen us, and hurried over, saying, "It's a mess outside now. His Majesty Pope George ordered the capture of all non-pure blood vampires, so now it's a real mess outside." It's too chaotic, there are guards and knights everywhere arresting people. Tuo Lao was also arrested!"

"what?!"

"Where are the captured people locked up?" Sessimon asked.

Sally frowned: "I just heard that the people who were taken away seem to have been taken to the underground cell of Fort Esomi. There are a lot of people arrested!"

"Is there anything else besides this?" Seth Emond asked again.

Sally thought for a while and said, "Oh, yes, there is another strange thing. After Pope George locked you all in last night, he summoned all the elders to discuss things in the council hall. They It hasn’t come out until now, and I’m worried that something will happen to my father.”

"Probably not, Marquis Fletcher is a pure-blood vampire anyway." I said, "That George is currently only attacking non-pure blood vampires, so the elders including your father should be fine."

"But—" Sally was still very worried, "I don't know when my father will come out, and I am very worried. Samantha and Rebia are gone, and I am left with my father and Uncle Petra. It's gone." While speaking, Sally's eyes began to roll.

I comforted: "Sally, don't worry, we will definitely find a way."

Aiwen asked Sally again: "Where is Xander?" Sally replied: "I don't know, when Mr. Tuo was arrested, he took me back to my house, and then he ran out." Aiwen After thinking about it, I didn't ask any more questions.

After Sally left, all of us fell silent. The current situation is very unfavorable to us, and we don't know if we will have a chance to escape from here and destroy George.

Seth Imon frowned: "Melon, do you know Taylor?"

Mellon replied, "Taylor? You mean Tyler Brace Suster? The prophet?"

"You know him?" Ivan asked.

"It was he who wrote me a letter asking me to leave the sanctuary." Melon said strangely.

"No, no, I mean besides this, did you know him before?" Seth Emond said.

Mellon nodded: "It can be said that we know each other. When I was still in the outside world, I was only ten years old. I met him in school. At that time, he advised me to study hard. Later, I returned to Egypt. After Satan, I saw him again at the gate of the sanctuary. At that time, he still told me that he wanted me to study hard. At that time, I still felt strange, but later I realized what he meant. I discovered him when I was reading. The letter left behind."

"So." I folded my arms, "Actually, you and Taylor don't know each other, you just met twice."

"You can say that." Melon nodded.

There were bursts of noises outside. Judging from the voices, it should be that George sent people to catch those non-pure blood vampires. I really don't understand why George must deal with those people?Isn't it good to live together for so many years?The moonlight above the head is coming up again, which means that there is one more day and it will be fifteen.

We were trying to figure out how to get out of this vampire's prison. There was a sound at the door, and after a while of silence, a person came in from the door. That was Xeander holding a long sword. It seemed that he was planning to come Prison?alone?Oh, no, after he came in, two people with long swords came in, one of them was a woman, I saw this woman after the victory of the siege of Anwar's remnant party, I remember her name was Hannah Kim Ma Gretel, she is the daughter of Elder Luna and one of the leaders of the vampire knights. As soon as she came in, I felt that she belonged to that kind of heroic and capable woman. "Your Highness!" Zeander raised his sword and broke the iron lock on our prison door when he came in, and said to us, "Things are not good."

"Zeander." Ivan came out of the prison and said to Zeander, "What happened?"

"Your Highness is right." Zeander said, "Pope George took power at dawn, saying that he wanted to rectify Essatan."

The woman named Hannah also said: "Your Highness, most of our knights have surrendered to Pope George, even my mother has surrendered to Pope George, but I absolutely do not agree with my mother's idea. Right now only I, Mike, Xander, and I are still on His Highness Salth's side, Your Highness, hurry up and escape with us!"

While Hannah was speaking, Mike Oscar Miller, who had been observing the situation outside the door, seemed to have noticed something, and hurriedly said to us: "Those guards are calling for someone to come, Your Highness, we have to leave quickly."

The few of us escaped from the Tower of Judgment under the escort of the three of them.Once we got out of the Tower of Judgment, we had no idea where to go.Susimmon looked around, and finally pointed to the church on the hill behind Fort Essomi and said, "The most dangerous place is the safest place, let's go there."

The others had no other thoughts for a while, so we evaded the coming guards all the way, escaped quietly from the Tower of Judgment, then escaped from the town, went around to the back of Fort Essomi, and passed through Narrow Road Mountain. Flipping through the cracks, I came to the church.The name of this church is 'Holy Somi Cathedral', which was built by Somia back then. As the sacred temple of Esatan, under normal circumstances, few people come here, only during the main sacrificial ceremonies and so on. The clansmen will only be gathered under certain circumstances, so currently there is only one bishop and three believers staying here to maintain the daily work.So it's relatively safe here, as long as those four people don't betray us.

"Go in through the back door," Mike said.

We quietly entered the church and stayed safely inside for the time being. Mike and Hannah brought the bishop and believers over.As soon as the bishop saw Ivan and the others, he kept saluting. They were the ones in charge of the church during Tom's reign, so they were loyal to Tom, but they were soft-spoken and unable to fight, and here No one thought of dealing with these four extremely ordinary clansmen.

We all sat around the fire while they prepared our food, and the short break lifted our spirits a little, which wasn't a bad thing.The flame in the fireplace burns the enthusiasm of the firewood little by little, and it seems that it can't burn enough, and our mood seems to be burning slowly like this flame.We don't know what's going on outside, so we can only wait.

"Are these four reliable?" Mellon asked Hannah.

Hannah said: "Bishop Jim's family has been guarding the church for generations. Their family is absolutely loyal to Queen Somia, and Bishop Jim was once favored by Pope Tom. He is a very grateful person, so it should be a pity. Trusted people. The other three believers were brought up by Bishop Jim himself, and they listened to Bishop Jim very much."

After having a good meal in a bit of stability, we also felt sleepy, and the bishop and others prepared several guest rooms for us.Lying on the bed, I couldn't help but feel a little worried. I don't know what will happen to those who are captured, but this George is definitely not a good person.And we are fleeing now, I am afraid that when he finds out, there will be another big disturbance.

Temporary comfort may be like the darkness before dawn, which seems calm in the light, but turbulent in the dark.Perhaps just like the sky before the storm, it seemed extraordinarily quiet.

When I woke up in the morning, I got bad news: George arrested Parkinson and Petra, Sally was locked in the Tower of Judgment, and Tuo Lao was killed by George.This is bad news for Aiwen. He has always felt guilty about the punishment Yu Tuo received back then, but now that he was killed by George, he feels more and more guilty.I don't know what kind of servant Tuo Lao is to Ai Wen, but I intuitively feel that the master-servant relationship between Ai Wen and Tuo Lao must be higher than ordinary.

"We have no choice now, there is only one way." During our silent mourning, Seth Imon suddenly said, he turned to look at Peter, "Now we can only rely on you."

"Me?" Peter was very confused, and we were also very surprised by Seth Imon's words.

Seth Imon glanced at Bishop Jim. Bishop Jim nodded slightly, then turned around and whispered something to the three believers. The three immediately turned and walked away, and Bishop Jim respectfully said to Seth Imon : "Your Highness Hadley, please go this way."

Seth Imon said: "Melon, you guys stay here, Ivan, Peter, Xiao, you three come with me." After finishing speaking, he followed Bishop Jim and walked out. We didn't understand what happened. Things, also followed.That Bishop Jim took us all the way down to the basement of the church, until we reached the bottom floor, and finally we stopped in front of a very old stone door, and added a very old giant lock to the stone door.Bishop Jim took out an ancient lock and opened the stone door. We walked into a very dark room, and in the middle of this room was a black coffin.Bishop Jim lit the torches on both sides of the room, and then opened the coffin together with a believer who came down together. We gathered and poked our heads out to have a look, and found that the person lying in the coffin was none other than——

"Father?!"

"Uncle Tom!?"

Ivan and Peter were very shocked, but when Seth Imon saw the person lying in the coffin, he was relieved, which made me wonder, what is going on?Why did Sass Yimon have such an expression?It was like the expression he would have when what he had always thought became the truth.What surprised me even more was that this Tom didn't disappear as Ivan said, but instead lay in this coffin and slept peacefully for a long time? !

"Peter, come here." Seth Imon stepped on the small stool that the believers had placed next to the coffin for him, and beckoned Peter to go beside him. At this time, Bishop Jim respectfully handed him a dagger.Peter walked beside him strangely, Seth Eamon stretched out his hand and grabbed Peter's arm, raised his sleeve, and stretched it above Tom's mouth in the coffin, then we saw Seth Eamon very quickly A small cut was made on Peter's arm, and Peter felt the pain only after he finished the stroke, gritting his teeth: "Oh, what are you doing?"

Seth Emond didn't speak, and when Peter's blood dripped onto Tom's invisible lips, he let go of his hand. We looked into the coffin, and Peter's blood gradually entered Tom's mouth In the middle of the day, Tom's face suddenly changed, and there was a slight color of blood on his lips, and at the same time, his eyelids suddenly moved.

"My father is—?" Ivan looked at Seth Imon very strangely. He wanted to find an answer, but Seth Imon gave him a very happy look and nodded. : "He's not dead, just like you, in a deep sleep."

While talking, Tom Craig Lydon, who was lying quietly in the coffin, slowly opened his closed eyes in front of our eyes...
