The Original Vampire

Count Uman breathed a sigh of relief. Colin’s attitude made him understand that he finally had a bargaining chip in his hand.

“Of course I can’t give you the will now, and you should be able to understand the reason.”

Of course, Colin understood that the other party was worried that he would regret it after getting the will, so he asked, “Then how do you prove the authenticity of this will? How do I know? Did you make this up casually?”

“The will was shown to me by Steward Drinden. Knight Lewis and I had just arrived at the Roar Castle not long ago, and we had not yet determined Butler Drinden’s position, so I deliberately threw the will into the fireplace and destroyed it in front of him.

Unexpectedly, Butler Drinden not only did not stop it but also looked happy to see it happen. Only then did I understand that this person also supported Joyce. The young master will inherit the title of Duke.”

Colin was speechless and said angrily, “Since you have already thrown the will into the fireplace and burned it, why are you talking nonsense to me?”

“No!” Count Uman shook his head quickly. “What I threw in was just a fake will; the real one was already dropped when I turned around and walked towards the fireplace!”

Colin looked at Count Uman with suspicion, obviously questioning whether the other party had any. There is no such trick that only a magician can have.

“Believe me, this is not difficult to do at all. At that time, all their attention was focused on the fake will thrown into the fireplace, and they had no idea that I had secretly hidden the real one.”

Colin shrugged. I didn’t know whether to believe Count Uman’s lies, and then I asked another question:

“Then, why did you hide the real will? Don’t you want Joyce to inherit the title of Duke? Isn’t that more interesting? You should want to see this will that is beneficial to Vera burned?”

Count Uman chuckled and said, “Colin, if it were you, would you burn such a wonderful handle?”

“A handle?” Colin suddenly said, Get it.

The so-called handle is, of course, Joyce’s handle.

If Joyce succeeds in inheriting the title of Duke of the North in the future, then this will be proof that the other party’s position is unfair. With this will in hand, Count Uman can better control Joyce.

After understanding this, Colin had to admire the count’s insidiousness and his ability to guard against anyone.

But it’s normal. Judging from Earl Uman’s behavior, he was originally an ambitious man who had no sense of loyalty and only thought about his own personal gain.

It is indeed possible to hide the real will.

“Sorry, Count Uman, if I couldn’t see the will you mentioned with my own eyes, I wouldn’t believe it,” Colin insisted.

Early Uman sighed and said helplessly, “Okay, I can give you the will, but you must give something in exchange.”

“What thing?”

“The right to command the Golden Lion Army!”

“Haha, you really dare to think about it!” Colin sneered.

Count Uman quickly explained: “With this will, Joyce has completely lost the qualification to compete with Vera for inheritance rights, so the command of the Golden Lion Army is not important to you.

However,  I need this army to ensure that I will not become an abandoned pawn!

How about it? Such conditions are not bad for you.”

Colin laughed and said sarcastically, “Count Uman, I think you might have made a mistake.”

“What?” Count Uman was a little stunned.

Colin slowly approached Count Uman, who was lying on the ground, and his tone became extremely cold: “That will is actually not that important to me.” “What do you mean?

” Count Uman suddenly panicked. “Don’t you want to see Vera inherit the title of Duke?”

“I think so. However, I already have a way. As for the will… Haha, at most it is the icing on the cake, but you want to sell it at a price that gives you timely help.

Moreover, I have been waiting for the revenge of the assassination for almost two years!

It has been two years; do you think I will let you go so easily?”

Count Uman could no longer remain calm and shouted in a hurry: “Colin, listen to me; keeping me alive is definitely more valuable than killing me! I can help.”

  Click!

Colin broke the other person’s neck and whispered, “But I think you are more valuable if you die.”

After saying that, he opened his mouth wide, revealing his sharp fangs, and bit into it.

“Gudu… Gudu…”

  …

The rain stopped, the wind stopped, and even the moon peeked out of the clouds, spreading its cold light to the earth.

In the abandoned warehouse, Colin looked up from Count Uman’s body.

  Phew—

He let out a sigh of contentment, a look of enjoyment on his face.

Count Uman’s body had been completely sucked dry and looked extremely terrifying.

Colin’s whole body became hot again, and fine blood and sweat continued to seep from his skin.

Bang bang bang!

His heart was beating violently as if it would break free from his chest in the next second.

The violent blood flow surged through his body, almost bursting his blood vessels.

Fortunately, with the experience of his last promotion, Colin is now mentally prepared for the drastic changes in his body, and even the bursts of severe pain seem to be a strange enjoyment.

Starting at the extraordinary level (fourth level), Colin found that the requirements and process for promotion were very different from before.

Before the fourth level, he only needed to drink about one or two liters of the blood of high-level knights to be promoted. Moreover, the process of promotion only caused a slight fever in the body and did not cause any pain.

But starting from the fourth level, he found that he had to completely drain the blood of a high-level knight in order to complete the promotion conditions. Moreover, the promotion process became extremely violent and painful.

  Bang!

Colin, who looked ferocious, punched the ground, and spider web-like cracks spread to all sides instantly.

His body began to swell again, and countless fine blood beads formed mysterious patterns on the surface of his skin.

Violent power filled Colin’s body, making him want to vent it out.

  Bang! Bang! Bang!

After hitting the ground with several consecutive punches, the whole land began to shake, as if an earthquake had occurred.

Countless cracks had appeared in the abandoned warehouse, and finally it couldn’t hold up anymore and collapsed.

  …

“Sir, that was the vibration here just now. We heard a thump, thump, thump, and a few howls that were not like human beings. Then when we came over and took a look, we found that the buildings here had collapsed.”

A team of city defense teams of Army soldiers, led by several Winter City residents, appeared outside the abandoned warehouse.

The captain looked at the collapsed ruins in front of him, feeling a little heavy in his heart.

I just heard that the church collapsed and killed Mr. Thomas. Now it has collapsed again. This time, no important person will be killed.

“Where was this place? Is anyone living here?”

“This is an abandoned warehouse filled with things that no one wants. It should be… no one lives in it.” “What are you doing standing there?

Hurry up, clean up the ruins, and see if there is anyone down there!”

  ”Yes!”

This team of city defense soldiers and residents was busy until dawn. When the dim light of the morning illuminated the ruins, they finally dug out two bodies.

To be more precise, it was a corpse and a head.

“Sir, that head seems to be Lord Earl Uman!”

“What?” The captain looked shocked.

I am really afraid of what will happen. What happened in Winter City last night? Why did so many big shots die?

“Why is there only the head? Where are the other parts of the body?”

“I don’t know, but we have rummaged through the ruins and found no other parts of the body.”

The captain looked solemn. This can only mean that Earl Uman was buried by the collapsed ruins. He was already dead and had his head cut off.

  ”Then there is another corpse. Whose is it?”

  ”I don’t know him. I can only tell that it is the corpse of a dwarf.”

  ”Dwarf?” The captain touched his chin and ordered, “Put away all the corpses. Let’s report to Lion’s Roar Castle.”

  ”Yes!”
