Chapter 801: Rose Castle
"Mr. Zhang, why don't you speak? Don't you agree with our approach? Nicole saw that Zhang Yang fell silent, so she couldn't help but ask.
Zhang Yang smiled, then shook his head and did not speak.
Nicole was puzzled for a moment, then seemed to understand what he meant.
She sighed softly: "Hey, in fact, in the past few hundred years, we have been trying to change the impression of the human world about us and live peacefully with them. Unfortunately, because of the intervention of the Holy See, and because many of our people are not fettered, our efforts are often in vain. β
Speaking of this, Nicole's brown eyes were full of sadness and loss.
Zhang Yang knew that she was feeling it, and couldn't help but feel some sympathy.
However, he also knew that it was almost impossible to change humanity's deep-seated fear of vampires.
Suddenly, Zhang Yang thought of something and asked coldly, "So, what role did you play in this Viking witch incident?" β
"This ......"
Nicole hesitated.
It took about ten seconds before she said again: "We are on the side of the British royal family." β
"Can I understand that in the royal family, there are also members of yours?" Zhang Yang said seriously.
Nicole smiled: "I don't deny that. β
"Aren't they worried?" Zhang Yang asked.
"Worried about what?" Nicole asked rhetorically.
"Lure the wolf into the house, and then eventually be completely controlled by you."
"If we had wanted to, we would have had this ability a long time ago." Nicole laughed, with a deep disdain in her words.
"Then I can imagine that they are completely trembling when they cooperate with you."
"Why do you have to tremble?" A sneer tugged at the corner of Nicole's mouth, "You're wrong. β
"Guess wrong...... Zhang Yang asked with interest, "Is it as willing?" β
"You're right." Nicole said, "With power, they actually want to live longer, even immortal, and they always ask to be one of us." β
"Isn't that what you want?" Zhang Yang asked again.
"Haha, we don't want too many members, it's going to be a mess then. These careerists, in particular, are a troubling factor. β
As he spoke, there were fewer and fewer buildings on both sides of the car.
After about a quarter of an hour, the red Ferrari finally stopped in front of an ancient castle hidden in a field of red roses.
The surroundings are deserted, and the ears are surprisingly quiet.
Occasionally, there were a few screams of night owls, adding to the gloomy feeling.
The castle is typical of the Victorian era, with no lights in the dark night.
It was as if a huge beast was lurking there.
The night breeze blows, with the fragrance of roses.
As I got closer, I could see through the dim moonlight that behind the mottled iron gate was a large patch of red roses in full bloom.
In the rose bushes, a mist floated through it.
These mist seem to be the color of blood because of the color of roses.
The tranquil castle and rose-covered garden are exuding an eerie atmosphere under the bright and cold moonlight.
After jumping out of the car, Zhang Yang immediately felt a biting cold aura hit his face.
The Jiuyang True Fire in Zhang Yang's body immediately flowed, and he forcibly suppressed this chill, and only then did he feel much more comfortable.
"How does it feel?" Nicole said with a smile.
"Haha, it's interesting."
"Interesting?" Nicole frowned visibly.
"Yes! It is rare to encounter such a place where yin energy is rampant. It doesn't look like a human dwelling, but rather a graveyard for the dead. Zhang Yang said, his tone was flat, neither surprised nor afraid.
"You're right, this was originally a private cemetery. Even during the day, few people come. Nicole laughed.
As she spoke, she pushed open the rusty iron door.
Squeak-
The cold wrought iron door let out a heavy groan and slowly opened.
Fluttering!
A few birds hiding in the grass rose into the sky and flew away with a frightened chirp.
As Nicole entered, the surging blood-colored mist quickly dispersed as if it had been thrown into the calm surface of a lake.
The fog lifted, and the surrounding scenery quickly became clear.
In the open space around the castle, overgrown with weeds.
And in the midst of the grass, there were rows of crosses planted in the middle of the grass.
Some have been eroded by rain and sunlight, and they can't see their original faces.
Some of them seem to have been buried recently, and the handwriting on them is still clearly visible.
Zhang Yang was not surprised by the scene in front of him.
Not to mention that the cold aura just now made him realize that this place was different, and it was the aura of death that filled these lingering mist that was enough for him to conclude what kind of place this was.
It's just that Nicole actually brought herself here, and he was a little curious.
Who is she going to treat herself?
Walking to the main entrance of the castle, the closed gate let out a heavy tremor and slowly opened.
Whew......
It's like a chain reaction.
The moment the door opened, the huge candles in the castle were lit one after another.
However, the light of the candle was so dim that it was not enough to dispel the eerie aura of the castle.
Whewββ
Suddenly, a gust of wind blew, and the candlelight in the hall flickered on and off.
Whew......
Several tall black shadows flickered.
The next moment, as if appearing out of thin air, he stopped in front of the two of them.
"Nicole, why did you bring a strange human here?"
A middle-aged man in his forties, with gray curly hair, a high nose bridge, and an evening dress, asked with a serious face.
When he said this, he stared at Zhang Yang with a vigilant look.
In his hand, there was a faint cold aura surging, and he could attack at any time.
A sneer appeared on the corner of Zhang Yang's mouth, and he calmly met his gaze.
The man was slightly stunned, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.
Just now, he tried to test Zhang Yang with spiritual coercion.
At first, he thought that he had successfully invaded Zhang Yang's sea of consciousness without hindrance, and he couldn't help but be surprised.
But then, he was horrified.
He found that as soon as he entered, he lost his way.
In this world, which is completely different from the sea of consciousness that we have been exposed to before, it is far away and lonely.
His own intruder is like a speck of dust, not to mention setting off a storm, it is impossible to find a trace of support.
If it weren't for the fact that Zhang Yang deliberately opened the sea of consciousness a few seconds later and released this wisp of his divine sense, he might have been controlled by others!
Although Nicole noticed the change in the middle-aged man's face, with her ability, she couldn't sense what happened between the two just now.
It's just that the middle-aged man's expression made Nicole misunderstand.
She thought that it was because she rashly appeared here with a stranger that caused the other party's unhappiness, and quickly explained: "Uncle Iverson, he is my friend Zhang Yang, I believe he will not leak out." I promise! β
Faced with a middle-aged man named Iverson, Nicole seemed to have an instinctive fear.
Zhang Yang guessed that this was an instinct between the blood clans for the strong.
Iverson's strength is obviously above Nicole, more than a grade higher, so the aura on his body makes Nicole under tremendous pressure, and he doesn't dare to make a mistake at all.
"Nicole, my dear cousin, you are so naΓ―ve. This is our last safe stronghold, and if it leaks out, it will make us even more passive. A blonde man beside Iverson whispered.
Although he had a charming smile on his face, there was obviously a hint of hostility in his eyes when he looked at Zhang Yang.
Even his eyes, as blue as a lake, were filled with bloodthirsty excitement.
"Abel!" Nicole raised an eyebrow and retorted, "Don't think everyone is as dangerous as you are. Zhang Yang is my friend, and he is completely trustworthy. β
Hearing Nicole's words, Zhang Yang was slightly stunned.
Friend?
Trustworthy......
He didn't think Nicole was a pushy girl.
It's just that when she said this, she didn't know where she got the confidence.
I seem to have only just met her.
"Nicole, Abel is right. As the saying goes, you can't have the heart to hurt others, but you can't have the heart to prevent people. It's always right to be careful. β
"That's right! Your friend from the East is unfathomable, and it would be unsettling to bring you here. β
"We will bring it to the Council of Elders and reconsider your candidacy."
The three old men standing next to Iverson looked worried, and they spoke one after another.
Call!
When Zhang Yang's attention was focused on the three old men, a strong and domineering yin wind suddenly hit the side.
The opponent's speed is so fast, even Zhang Yang reacts quickly, and he can only shoot instinctively.
Boom!
The palm power full of Jiuyang True Fire was urged, and he forcibly took the other party's claws that took the heart directly.
Scorching, cold.
The two diametrically opposed auras collided in an instant, and the entire hall trembled and dust fell.
The two of them were separated as soon as they touched each other, and Zhang Yang did not move.
The sneak attacker staggered out ten meters away before barely standing still.
If you pay attention, the marble floor is already covered with spider webs of cracks beneath his feet.
Through the dim candlelight, Zhang Yang saw the other party's true face clearly.
Ebel ......
However, Able was standing to the side, a slight smile on his lips, and a hideous look flashed in his eyes.
Twin brothers?!
Zhang Yang immediately denied this speculation.
The breath between the two is exactly the same!
There are no two leaves in the world that are exactly the same, and there can be no two people who are exactly the same.
Even twins can't be so similar.
Doppelganger!
Zhang Yang suddenly thought of a possibility.
It's just that this Abel can actually cultivate the doppelganger technique to such an extent, which is really incredible.
Nicole couldn't help but be shocked when she saw the sharp and thin fangs on the corner of Ebel's mouth on the other side of Zhang Yang's mouth gradually sticking out of her mouth, and her eyes became more and more red.
He hurriedly stopped in front of Zhang Yang and scolded with a cold expression:
"Abel stop! Stop it! β
"Nicole, get out of the way!" The corners of Abel's mouth squirmed, but a cold voice sounded behind Zhang Yang.
"In that case, Nicole, I'll take a look."
While Zhang Yang spoke, his eyes fell on the spiral ladder on the right.
