The Original Vampire

Chase and Escape

  When Lucien returned to the basement, he saw corpses everywhere.

  The bodies of the Schulz family guards.

  However, the bodies of Colin and Bishop John had disappeared.

  Lucien suppressed the anger rising in his heart and asked the butler beside him, “What happened at that time?” The butler carefully explained, “Sir, I was not present at the time, but according to the guard who came to report, shortly after you left, there was a scream in the basement.

  Then, the guards guarding the hall entered the basement to check on the situation, and at the same time sent a person to report the news.

  I rushed here immediately after receiving the report, only to find that I had entered. More than 30 guards in the basement were all brutally killed, and Viscount Angelet was missing.

  However, I guess they have not escaped from Swansea Castle yet!”

  Lucien’s eyes lit up and he asked quickly: ” Oh? Why?”

  ”Because the guards didn’t find anyone entering or leaving the castle, so unless they can fly, they must still be in Swan Castle!” “

  Okay, mobilize people and search the whole castle!”

  ”Yes, sir!”

  …

  When the first ray of morning light shone on Swansea Castle, Lucien was still standing at the entrance of the basement, maintaining the same posture as last night.

  Familiar footsteps sounded behind him. Lucien looked back and saw Count Schultz walking towards him with a cup of coffee.

  ”Would you like to take a rest?” Count Schulz handed the coffee to his husband and asked.

  ”No need.” Lucien shook his head, took the coffee and drank it in one gulp.

  Although he had not slept all night, he did not seem to be affected much and was still in high spirits.

  But the worry in his eyes has not diminished.

  When Count Schulz saw this, the gloom in his heart suddenly became heavier, and he asked: “Still haven’t you found anything?”

  Lucien shook his head, and just as he was about to say something, he saw the captain of the Swan Castle guard, Knight Bright, hurried away. Come over.

  He was refreshed and asked quickly: “How is it? Did you find anything?”

  Knight Bright saluted first, and then reported: “Your Excellency, Lord Earl, Lucien, the guards have completed the search of Swan Castle. But Viscount Angelet has not been found yet.

  However, we found blood stains on the wall on the east side of the castle.”

  Count Schulz asked eagerly: “So, where did they escape from Neuschwanstein Castle?”

  ” It should be like this.”

  Lucien frowned and asked in a bad tone: “Then tell me, how did they climb over the wall without alerting the patrol guards? And they were still carrying a broken limb. In the condition of a disabled person?”

  Knight Bright suddenly suffocated, lowered his head and said: “Subordinate… I don’t know.”

  Lucien snorted lightly and ordered: “Notify the city defense immediately, close all the gates of Swan City, and prohibit any People are coming in and out!

  You personally bring a team of guards and follow me to search the city!”

  ”Yes!” Knight Bright responded immediately, and then turned around to prepare.

  Earl Schulz frowned and asked: “Who rescued Viscount Angelet? Could it be the ‘Duke of St. Hilde’?”

  Lucien’s face was gloomy and he said coldly: “Whether it is Whoever it is, I will catch them back!”

  After saying that, the sixth-level warrior strode out facing the rising sun.

  …

  The hazy moonlight is like a veil of mist, passing through the window and filling the room.

  Count Schulz had just finished taking a bath, and her hair was still smelling of fresh air. She was wearing a pair of pure white silk pajamas and sat down in front of the dressing table.

  Looking at herself in the bronze mirror, the Countess suddenly sighed, and an unconcealable look of worry appeared on her beautiful face.

  It has been three days since Colin escaped from the basement.

  In three days, Lucien personally led the team and turned Swan City upside down, but still could not find Colin’s whereabouts.

  This morning, Lucien determined that Colin had escaped from Swan City, so he led another three thousand troops and chased him out.

  In the evening, the messenger brought back good news – Lucien had discovered Colin’s traces, and it would not take long to capture them.

  Logically speaking, such good news should make Count Schulz feel at ease. However, after receiving the news, the Countess always had an ominous premonition.

  After pondering in front of the mirror for a long time, Count Schulz called out to the door: “Mary?”

  After waiting for a moment, there was no response from the maid who was supposed to be guarding the door.

  Count Schulz frowned slightly and was about to stand up to check, but at this moment, a gust of wind suddenly rushed in through the open window.

  Phew—

  the candles were blown out, and darkness instantly enveloped the entire room.

  Count Schulz’s heart suddenly broke out, and when he was about to shout, he found that the back of his neck was tightly grasped by a big hand!

  ”Don’t make a sound, Lord Count.”

  Listening to the familiar voice behind her, Count Schulz’s heart almost jumped out of her throat. She tried to stay calm and said with a forced smile:

  ”Viscount Angelet, where have you been before? We have been worried about you for a long time.”

  Colin turned to Count Schulz and looked at the beautiful countess in front of him in the soft moonlight.

  The two people’s posture at this time was quite ambiguous, like lovers embracing each other under the moon.

  Of course, if Colin’s big hand hadn’t firmly grasped the back of Earl Schulz’s neck…

  ”Your Majesty Earl, I really can’t bear the reception your husband Lucien received before, so I can only choose to avoid it temporarily. Avoid the edge.”

  ”Viscount Angelet, I apologize for Lucien’s previous offense! But please believe that the Schulz family has no ill will towards you or the St. Hilde family.

  If you feel that there is something wrong in your heart, Angry, I can make it up to you…”

  Count Schulz’s tone became ambiguous, and his body slowly moved closer to Colin.

  Facing the temptation of this mature and beautiful countess, Colin remained unmoved at all, and even suddenly increased the strength of his hands, as if he wanted to crush Count Schulz’s delicate and slender neck.

  ”Ah——”

  Count Schulz groaned in pain, and immediately did not dare to do it again.

  Just the big watery eyes looked at Colin aggrievedly, and the tenderness and charm revealed in them seemed to melt steel.

  It’s a pity that Colin couldn’t be moved. He said coldly:

  ”Count Schulz, please explain the cause and effect of this matter honestly.”

  ”Viscount Angelet, I admit that what Lucien did before was indeed too much. That’s too much, but he is just worried that you will misunderstand the Schulz family…”

  ”Misunderstanding?” Colin sneered and interrupted Count Schulz’s sophistry. “Don’t tell me that Bishop John’s death has nothing to do with you, let alone tell me that you didn’t try to coax Vera into the city!

  Also, do you really think that I don’t know who Vera’s real biological mother is?”

  Count Schulz suddenly understood why he had exposed the secret in the first place.

  At this moment, she wanted to tear that damn “Duke St. Hilde” into pieces. Not only did this impostor give her a bad idea, but he also changed hands and pushed the Schulz family into a pit of fire when he saw the situation was not good.

  Perhaps, from the beginning, this “Duke of St. Hilde” wanted the Schulz family to be at odds with the St. Hilde family.

  Count Schulz found himself in a dilemma.

  Lying was no longer possible, after all Colin had seen through his trick from the beginning.

  But she didn’t dare to tell the truth.

  Because the Schultz family cannot afford to tell the truth.

  Pretending to be the mother of the Duke of the North, she assisted in the murder of Bishop John.

  Count Schulz did not believe that Colin or the St. Hilde family would let him go.

  Looking at Count Schultz who was struggling, Colin spoke again:

  ”Count Schulz, I said that I am a kind man. As long as you are willing to tell the truth, I will forgive all your previous sins. So, I’ll give you another chance. If you dare to tell another lie, don’t blame me for being cruel!”

  Count Schulz’s expression changed drastically, and he sighed after a while: “Viscount Angelet, please believe me. Bishop John’s death has nothing to do with the Schultz family. You must not fall for this clumsy frame-up method!

  Moreover, I am really Vera’s biological mother, and I even dared to confront Marquis Garcia…”

  ”Hey -” Colin sighed, as if he had completely lost trust in the countess, and said coldly, “For the sins you have committed, please ask my lord for forgiveness!” As he said that, he handed over a handful of the dagger plunged into Count Schulz’s heart!

  ”Ugh——”

  Count Schulz’s cry of pain was held in Colin’s throat before she could even leave her mouth. Her eyes were full of disbelief. She obviously didn’t expect that Colin would really dare to kill her!

  After all, she is also the wife of a dignified Earl of the North and a sixth-level warrior. Isn’t Colin afraid of revenge?

  After a burst of intense pain, there was a surge of powerlessness. Count Schulz felt that the light in front of her eyes was disappearing little by little. She opened her mouth as if she wanted to leave something to the world, but she couldn’t find it. No sound.

  Before completely losing consciousness, Count Schulz felt as if someone had bitten him on the neck
