It seems that no matter how strong the Apostles were, they would not be able to do anything effective against the impregnable line of courage before the onset of this cold winter. Even so, the Danmos soldiers stationed in the Courage Line changed their previous arrogant attitude and regarded the Apostles as the most formidable opponents they had ever encountered. Resolutely avoid falling into any petty apostolic conspiracy again.

At the same time, in the capital of the Danmos Empire, there was a slight change. In the aristocratic quarters of the city, which is closest to the imperial city, a mysterious figure has appeared in the past few days, wrapped in brown robes. This mysterious figure begins to appear every morning at the junction of the noble and commoner quarters, and then wanders around the noble quarter. Until the evening, it suddenly disappeared without a trace. This baffled many people who discovered this mysterious figure, especially the nobles who lived in the aristocratic district. Generally speaking, if there are people who are not nobles, they want to come from the commoner area or the slum to the noble area, they have to go through the layers of patrols and guards, and they can only stay for a very short time.

After all, the aristocratic district is the existence of the capital of the Danmoth Empire that completely overrides the other two regions, and the proud and noble nobles will not allow those lowly commoners to dirty their exclusive area. However, the patrols of the capital city of Danmos seemed to turn a blind eye to this mysterious figure, and even if they walked past this mysterious figure, it was as if they had not come into contact with it.

This strange scene appeared for five days, and finally, the nobles could not stand it. One day at noon, just as the mysterious figure appeared in the aristocratic district again, a group of nobles and dozens of their subordinates surrounded the mysterious figure. They knew that even if they were nobles, they still couldn't break the laws of the empire, so their goal now was actually very simple, which was to find out what the mysterious figure in front of them was and that's it. As for other ideas, these high-ranking nobles have not thought about it for the time being. Maybe the other party is a nobleman with a much higher rank than himself. Recently, some dignitaries like to change their clothes and wander around the capital when they are not busy, and then focus on the troubles of those who are attracted to them.

So. Although they surrounded the mysterious man in groups, they were as polite as possible, and one of the nobles who seemed to be the highest rank asked, "May I ask your Excellency?"

"Hmph. The mysterious man snorted contemptuously, and instead of speaking, he walked straight forward. The noble servant who stood in front of him stared blankly as if he was enchanted and gave way to him, watching the mysterious man pass in front of his eyes. After a few seconds, when the mysterious man walked out of the encirclement, the nobles reacted, and the servant's master slapped the servant hard, knocking him to the ground. Then the rest of the people reacted and surrounded the mysterious man again.

Among them, the previous leader stood directly opposite the mysterious man again, and said with an embarrassed smile: "Your Excellency, this is the aristocratic area, and non-noble people are not allowed to appear in it. But you've been here many times these days, so we're curious about who your Excellency is, or maybe we're friends. After saying that, the leading nobleman wanted to see through the robe what this mysterious figure looked like, and he had a hunch that this mysterious person was actually a member he was very familiar with, but he just didn't want them to find out. However, they are about to see something they will never forget.

I don't know if I said it or for some other reason, the mysterious man suddenly sneered, and reached out to lift the hood on his face. However, then, the surrounding nobles and their servants saw a scene that they would never forget.

What kind of face is this in front of him? This nobleman can only tell by the face that this mysterious person should be a woman, but it is only speculation. For he could not see any blood in the face of this man, who might be called a human creature (or perhaps not even a creature), but a pale face. Even its eyes are an eerie shade of blue. But that's just one of those eyes. The other eye, on the other hand, was actually blood-red.

Beneath those terrible eyes was a mouth with fangs, scarlet lips as terrifying as if they had just sucked fresh blood. At this time, the mouth is tilting upwards in a subtle arc, which is laughing. This is definitely not a person! Not even a creature! The nobleman's heart cried, but he didn't know why he couldn't say it. In fact, he doesn't need to say it, his companions actually know what this mysterious man is. It's just that they, like this nobleman, can only stand in place for some mysterious reason, and they can't move half a step.

"Oh my God, this is an undead. The nobleman couldn't help but lament, he didn't expect that he had encountered something that he might not see in his life. However, this thing appeared in front of his eyes at this very moment. In an instant, the nobleman and many of his companions collapsed. It's not that they've never seen a non-human race, but like the undead, it's the first time they've seen it. Especially, when this undead suddenly changed and revealed a skull, they could no longer control their bladder and actually urinated like this. At the same time, he sat on the ground, unconsciously saying something.

For the people around them, they really encountered a strange thing. First, a mysterious figure in a black robe appeared, and then this group of nobles who had nothing to do surrounded this mysterious person. Immediately after that, the mysterious man had suddenly disappeared, and these stupid nobles collapsed to the ground as if they had seen something that frightened them, and there were more than one. However, to the onlookers, these nobles were just a spice in the boring life of the people living in the aristocratic district, and after a cold laugh, the crowd eventually dispersed, and these frightened nobles could only be carried back by other companions who were lucky enough not to witness the scene just now. How to explain all this to these stupid aristocratic family members is their next trouble.

For those who do good deeds, they will have less to talk about in the rest of their lives. That is the mysterious figure who appeared in the aristocratic district a few days ago, and suddenly disappeared after the sudden appearance of those fools. This disappointed some of the other nobles who wanted to arrest the mysterious man and find out, unaware that these frightened nobles had inadvertently saved their lives. However, this is not a big deal after all, and it will not be long before the high-ranking people living in the aristocratic district will soon forget the mysterious man who has only appeared for a few days.

But for Lady Sigh, scaring the nobles was just something she found very interesting. But she came all the way to the capital of the empire, not to scare some fools who thought they were bold. She still has important things to do. She was going to meet with the Auxiliary Minister who had been assigned to the Courage Line to investigate, and convince him to allow him to go with him to the Courage Defense.

In the beginning, her plan was not to come to the Auxiliary Minister, but to have another purpose. But she didn't expect her expectation to suddenly go wrong. In other words, the imminent fall of the Danmos Empire, which he expected at the beginning, has failed. Until now, Lady Sigh still didn't know why her prediction had failed. In the world of the dead, Lady Sigh's predictions have never been wrong. But this time it happened, so Lady Sigh had to go to the place where she had gone wrong in her prediction and find out. As for how she could convince an Empire's Auxiliary Minister to agree to a repelled undead with him to the Courage Line, she herself could not find an answer.

It was also a little embarrassing to say, and it took five days for the lady to find the official residence of the Auxiliary Minister. And before that, in order to prevent some guards from pestering her, Lady Sigh specially made a fake special pass, which allowed her to come and go freely in the aristocratic district of the imperial capital. But what I didn't expect was that I still couldn't avoid the entanglement of those nobles who had nothing to do. But here, the lady sighs that she doesn't want to kill and can't kill, and if she kills these nobles who have nothing to do, her identity will also be ruined. So, he used a little trick on these nobles. That is, through their little baby, they hallucinated, but the lady sighed that it did not expect such a big effect. The spiritual defense line of these pampered so-called nobles is that the fetal position is fragile. The lady shook her head. He now clearly knew that even if Winter could successfully stop the Apostle's attack on the Danmoth Empire, it would not be able to avoid the fate of destruction in the end. But fortunately, he had just found the official residence of the Auxiliary Minister. Then she had to wait until nightfall to visit the Auxiliary Minister. As for why she chose to be at night, it was just a lament for the lady's hobby as an undead. However, I am afraid that the Auxiliary Minister, who is still thinking about how to arrange the trip, will not think that he has been remembered by others.

It is night, and unlike the civilian area where ordinary people live, the aristocratic district is still bustling at night due to its colorful nightlife, even if it is very late. A large number of nobles and slaves were flooded with it, and it was not lively. Among so many people, Ms. Sigh was not worried that anyone would find out, but in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, Ms. Sigh still jumped on the roof of a nearby house lightly, and then shuttled on the top floor of the floor as lightly as a cat. I came all the way to the outside of the Vice-Chancellor's residence.

The Vice-Chancellor is an old man in his sixties. Although the average life expectancy of people living in the Danmos Empire is much higher than in other places, sixty years old is considered a very long time. Of course, the old emperor who was more than 100 years old was not among them. The Auxiliary Minister, who was already an old man, did not fall into this drunken night like other young people, but had already rested early. For in two days' time, the Auxiliary Chancellor was to pack his bags and go to the Lines of Courage to investigate whether the apostles' massive attack was the truth. In fact, the Auxiliary Minister knows better than anyone else that this must be true, and the purpose of his trip is not to infer a matter that has long been true. It's about how to safely go to the Courage Line and then return safely from the Courage Line. However, for an old man, it doesn't matter whether he can return safely, maybe his death can confirm to the old emperor that his speculation is right, as for whether he can make the old emperor no longer mediocre, it is not his own business.

Now, the Auxiliary Minister is full of indifference about his next fate, but this does not mean that he will not be afraid when a dead spirit suddenly appears in front of him. Therefore, when the lady suddenly appeared in front of the old man, the Auxiliary Minister was still startled, and even screamed and fell to the ground. However, it only took a moment for the Auxiliary Secretary to regain his former glory. After he had repelled the guards who had arrived and told them to close the door, the Auxiliary Minister, who was sitting on the ground, smiled and said to the lady who sighed, "I am not able to stand up and welcome you at once. “

The lady was stunned for a moment, but she didn't expect the old man in front of her to return to normal. "You're not afraid of me?"

The Auxiliary Minister smiled indifferently: "Why should I be afraid of you?"

"I think you can see that I'm an undead. Moreover, the minds of the elderly all seem to be stubborn. “

"So what?" said the Vice-Chancellor with a smile, "Even my grandfather's grandfather has never seen the dead, and the fear of you is only word of mouth. So, why should I be afraid?"

The lady was stunned for a moment, marveling at the indifference of the old man in front of her. Obviously, the old man's mind was full of wisdom. "I ask for your help. ”

The Auxiliary Minister seemed even happier: "Look, I know that we don't need to be afraid of you, and we can even live in peace. But they don't know it. Say, if I can do it, I'll be satisfied. ”

"You're really not afraid of me, an undead?"

"Why be afraid?" asked the Auxiliary Secretary rhetorically, "just because we have a feud between our races, but what does this have to do with us? Well, maybe it has something to do with you." But I guess you didn't come to me for revenge. ”

"Okay. Lady Sigh admired: "Sir, I hope you can help me and let me join you and go to the line of courage with you." I have a question that needs to be verified. ”
