"You can kill me, but the duty of sealing Count Dracula will also fall to you alone. Avalon Shin looked up, the ends of her brown hair falling down, and between the strands of her hair, her eyes were firm and indifferent.

Even...... There was also a faint sense of relief.

Oh, a wretched creature who has long been struggling with the betrayal of his best friend and the intrigues of the Holy See.

Van Helsing withdrew his sword with an indifferent expression: "What a contemptible fellow, don't you dare to face your best friend in the past and come to look for me, an executioner who has long been overwhelmed?"

"As I saw with my own eyes last night, your blade is still sharp, and you are still worthy of being the strongest witcher ever praised by the cardinals. The Holy See envoy said sincerely, "Although we did not meet at the beginning, I think you and I both knew each other's existence, and Dracula's fall has no help, we can only send him free, which is the best outcome." ”

"But Dracula may not be willing to accept such an outcome, besides, haven't you already sealed him once?" Van Helsing scoffed.

A trace of sadness rose on the face of the Holy See envoy: "This is not the same time as in the past, when the Templars and Hospitallers poured out, seven regional bishops, and six Inquisitors joined forces to seal Dracula. ”

Van Helsing showed a contemptuous smile on his face: "However, now, the four major knights are all in decline, and the priests and bishops of some churches have not even mastered the slightest bit of holy light, and the Holy See is really destroyed in their hands." ”

Avalon Shin was silent for a moment, and then said sincerely: "No matter what you think of the current Holy See, once Count Dracula is freed from the weak period of returning to the world, no one in this world will be able to stop them, Satan will follow, the devil will rule the world, and the world will sink into darkness. ”

Van Helsing was silent for a moment, then nodded: "The Dark Age is coming, this is their time, and no one can stop them." This is a prophecy that I saw a long time ago, and it is now being fulfilled. So why did you come to my head, and you want me to die with you?"

Your prophecy is true, no one can stop the Dark Ages, but you and I are not human. The look of the Holy See envoy was resolute, "Only we can save the glory of God." ”

Van Helsing was silent for a moment, and in the expectant gaze of the Holy See envoy, he finally shook his head and said, "Although you say it beautifully, I still refuse. ”

"Why?" Avalon Shin couldn't understand, if the other party had fallen, then where did the pure and extreme power of the Holy Light come from?

But if the other party has not fallen, then how can it be possible to sit back and watch the devil come to the world and blaspheme God without doing anything?

"It is you, not me, who will save the glory of God, and it is your duty to purify your closest friend from the darkness that has fallen into darkness. Van Helsing sneered, "And the glory of God was already in your hands long after that conspiracy took place." ”

"Ten thousand gold florins. The Holy See envoy held out a finger.

Van Helsing sneered: "Compared to the strength of Count Dracula, I think this price is really pitiful, when selling indulgences, the church obtained far more than 10,000 florins a day. ”

The Holy See envoy held out a finger again: "Twenty thousand." ”

Van Helsing's smile became even more indifferent: "It's not about money......"

The Holy See envoy held out a finger again: "Thirty thousand." ”

Van Helsing took a deep breath, what kind of concept is 30,000 florins? enough to arm an elite army of five hundred, armed with chain mail and long swords.

Yet he shook his head contemptuously, though the contempt in his eyes had flickered slightly.

"Fifty thousand. The face of the Holy See envoy became more and more gloomy, and one believed that the next moment, if Van Helsing did not agree, he would immediately explode.

"One hundred thousand. Van Helsing threw his fist.

The Holy See envoy said decisively: "Deal!"

Van Helsing was slightly stunned, and said with a gloomy expression: "So refreshing?"

Avalon Shin smiled smugly: "I have lived for thousands of years, and in such a long time, a poor ghost like you is really rare, and 100,000 florins are just a year's tax for my estate." ”

Van Helsing was a little annoyed and angry, and pointed to the door: "Get out." ”

Avalon Shin decisively pulled out two pieces of paper and threw them to Van Helsing.

Van Helsing said angrily: "Did you fool Lao Tzu with two pieces of paper?"

The papal emissary paused slightly as he left, and said with a sneer: "The deposit slip of the Bank of Venice, 150,000 florins, is more than half of what you requested, and anyone can take it." ”

Van Helsing snorted and said, "Get out." ”

Seeing the papal envoy in the carriage drifting away, Van Helsing couldn't help but mutter, "I hate those Venetians who smell of copper." ”

He put away the deposit slip, and the other piece of paper was about the team and meeting time for the killing of Count Dracula.

After a cursory sweep, he tossed it aside.

"The main force of the Knights of the Holy Order was exhausted, and there were only three great knights, twenty-five regular knights, and thirty knightly squires who had initially mastered the power of the Holy Light. ”

"Hehe, the Cardinal Order is probably rotten to the roots, otherwise it would not have sent only these knights, but also those magistrates who would only pretend to hold silver stakes and casually tie people to the stake and burn them, and at this time they will also be exposed. ”

"It's just like dealing with Dracula with this kind of power......"

Van Helsing's eyes gradually appeared in front of the scene he had seen back then, the knight's sword held by blood, spread the black batwings that covered the sky, and set off a sea of blood, devouring thousands of crusader warriors.

He sighed, placed the silver pistol he had treasured in his arms on the table, and carefully wiped every corner.

He didn't have any superfluous stuff in his hand, whether it was silver stakes, garlic, crosses, holy water, which might come in handy against ordinary vampires, but if they were used against Dracula, it would be a joke.

And against ordinary vampires, one person, a sword is enough.

In the middle of the night, Van Helsing, who had done all this, pushed open the door, closed the door of the clinic, pasted the words "master is out", and then went straight out of the door with the bag of gold coins from last night.

......

The next day, when Van Helsing, dressed in a long black trench coat and wearing a fisherman's hat, appeared lightly in the camp of the Knights of Holy Order stationed outside the city, Avalon Shin was not surprised.

He said, "Are you ready to go?"

Van Helsing nodded, and then looked at these knights of the Holy Order who had been in armor for hundreds of years, whose armor had long since been upgraded from chain mail to plate armor, and who also wore short-handled muskets at their waists, and who were also presumably high-end goods filled with Mithril bullets.

"If their Light is that weak, then I'm afraid I'm not ready. Van Helsing sneered.

The knights' faces remained unchanged, and they didn't look frightened, except for a few young and vigorous knight squires who were flushed with anger, and although they were young, as members of the Preparatory Knights who could master the Holy Light and consider themselves devout followers, their strength had already surpassed that of mortals many times.

They certainly have reasons to be proud.

Van Helsing sneered: "What, not convinced?"

The next moment, a blazing light like the sun suddenly swept through the entire camp.
