Blue Moon Mansion.

Count Derek was alone in the middle of the dance floor in the ballroom on the first floor.

Around the ballroom, hundreds of candlesticks form a large circle, and five candles are inserted on each candlestick, all of which are lit, and the burning candles emit a dim and jumping fire, which illuminates the huge ballroom.

This is not enough.

Above the ballroom, there are five soft balls, and at Count Derrick's feet, there are several Mobius boxes. Count Derek held the switch of the soft ball in his hand, and his eyes were fixed on the candle flame beside him without blinking.

Remember, the chameleon is not truly invisible, he only deceives your vision through the change of light and shadow. You stare at the candle flame, and if the flame shakes abnormally, it means that the monster has stepped over the candle flame. At this time, you immediately light up the soft light ball, change the brightness of the ambient light, and the chameleon will definitely appear! Once you find the chameleon, you immediately call the guards, delay the time, and I will rush back as soon as possible! ’

This was Grimm's instructions before leaving.

The plan was very dangerous, and Count Derek knew very well that he would be doomed this time, and he wanted to refuse, but the damned magician told him that this was the only way to survive, otherwise, he would definitely die!

He had to give in.

As the minutes ticked by, the candles around the ballroom burned quietly, and every now and then the candles would explode with a 'crackling' sound. Whenever this happens, Count Derek's body will shake violently, and he will subconsciously turn his head to look over, and his hand can't control the switch of the soft light ball.

Unfortunately, every time it was a false alarm.

After staying like this for more than 2 hours, the side effects of a long period of mental concentration appeared, and Count Derek felt that his mind was a little dizzy, and his concentration became more and more scattered.

The ballroom was poorly ventilated, and the warm gases from the burning candles made him drowsy, and his eyes blinked, and he felt his eyelids getting heavier and heavier, and gradually, he involuntarily began to doze.

Just when he wanted to fall asleep, suddenly, a voice sounded in the ears of Count Derek: "Lord Earl, there is really you, at this time, you can still doze off?" ”

The unfamiliar voice shook Count Derrick's heart, and his hand subconsciously pressed the switch of the soft light ball.

'Bang~' made a soft sound, and all the soft light balls lit up, sprinkling white brilliance, and the dance hall suddenly became very bright.

Count Derek clearly saw that in front of the wall directly in front of his body, an extremely faint figure appeared.

"Monster! Die! ”

Count Derek roared, picked up the steel crossbow beside him, aimed it at the figure and pulled the trigger.

"Collapse~"

The bowstring snapped, and the crossbow bolt pulled a black line over the ballroom and flew quickly towards the figure.

"Knock~"

The bolt hit the stone wall of the mansion, not because it didn't aim, but because the figure took a quick step to the side.

An unfamiliar voice sounded again, with a hint of a flirtatious smile: "Earl, your crossbow bolts are too slow, and with this simple weapon, they can't hit me." ”

With this voice, the faint figure was like a drifting cloud, and in the blink of an eye, he stepped over the large circle of candles, and in the blink of an eye, he was beside Count Derrick.

Count Derek felt a cold wind blow towards him, and before he could react, he felt a knife-like chill in his neck.

The touch on his neck told him that his neck was pinched by a cold hand. He could feel that the power in this hand was very strong, and it could easily break his neck.

"Uh~~" Count Derek subconsciously exclaimed, no, only half of it, and the other half was forcibly pinched in his throat by this cold hand.

"Bang Bang Bang~"

There was a messy and heavy sound of footsteps outside the ballroom, and a few seconds later, the door of the ballroom was violently slammed open, and one by one, the guards of the mansion dressed in fine steel armor and holding sharp steel swords rushed into the ballroom, led by the captain of the guard, Drew.

At a glance, he saw Count Derrick, who was held hostage by that faint black shadow, and subconsciously shouted: "Lord Earl!" ”

"Qiang~"

Some of the guards drew their steel swords, some flattened their crossbows, and some held heavy steel shields, and they waited for them, as if they would do anything if the shadow moved at all.

Faced with more than 30 elite guards, the chameleon remained unhurried.

He pulled Count Derek up from his chair, and sat down on it himself, and as for the Count, like a deer bitten by the throat of a beast, his whole body was limp, as if he were dead.

"Tut-tut~ Lord Earl, you can really afford to pay for it. These warriors are all wearing high-grade steel armor, and if they come down in one set, they will cost hundreds of gold dragon coins, right?"

"Ho~ho~" Count Derek was speechless, and could only let out a faint exhalation in his throat.

"Monster, let go of Lord Earl, or we'll do it!" Captain Drew roared.

"Do it! Just do it! The chameleon laughed, the strength in his hand increased slightly, and Count Derek suddenly had difficulty breathing, his face began to turn blue and purple, and his body involuntarily began to struggle, like a dying prey.

The guards are numb, you look at me, I look at you, they are all at a loss.

The chameleon sneered, "Loyal guards, if you don't want to see your count turned into a corpse, stand back and leave the room." ”

The guards all hesitated, and looked at Captain Drew one by one.

Drew gritted his teeth and waved his hand: "All out of the ballroom!" ”

'Wow la la~'

There was a jumble of footsteps, and the guards had just rushed into the ballroom, and then they retreated the same way.

"Close the door." The chameleon said again.

A few seconds later, the door to the ballroom was shut.

The chameleon let go of his hand and let go of Count Derek's neck.

"cough~cough~"

Count Derek was half-lying on the ground, clutching his throat and coughing violently, his face flushed.

The chameleon sat on the chair, looked condescendingly at the embarrassed Earl, and smiled faintly: "Lord Earl, how does it feel to be dominated by someone's fate?" ”

Count Derrick's body trembled uncontrollably, and after a while, he spoke: "Let me go!" I'll give you money! Lots and lots of money! ”

"How many?"

"10,000 gold dragon coins..... No, twenty thousand! ”

"Oh~~~Hahahaha~"

The chameleon suddenly burst out laughing, laughing and laughing, he jerked his head down and looked at Count Derek coldly: "Lord Earl, your life is worth 20,000 gold dragon coins?" At this time, you still want to save money? ”

"The 100,000! 100,000 lines, right? "Count Derek immediately increased the number fivefold.

Without thinking about it, as soon as he spoke, the chameleon suddenly raised his foot and kicked him hard in the chest, directly kicking him to the ground, and then, the chameleon stepped on Count Derrick's chest, and with a little force, he stepped on the ground and couldn't move at all.

The chameleon lowered his head, reached out and lifted Count Derek's chin, and looked into his eyes: "Lord Earl, to tell you the unfortunate news, I am not interested in gold dragon coins. Therefore, no matter how many gold dragon coins you have, they will not be able to save your life. ”

"So what do you want? What do you want? As long as I have it, I will give it to you! ”

"I want your life, and you're willing to give it to me?" The chameleon laughed evilly.

“......”

didn't think about it, the chameleon suddenly changed his tone, and his tone suddenly became very gentle: "Okay, okay, I won't tease you." It's not impossible for me to let you go, but you have to do one thing. ”

Count Derrick's heart suddenly rose with great hope: "What's the matter?" You say, I'll do my best to help you out! ”

The chameleon took away the leg that was pressing the Count, then reached out and took out a bottle from his waist bag, he handed the bottle to Derek, and smiled, "It's not that difficult." See this bottle? ”

Count Derek nodded repeatedly.

"There's something in this bottle, something that's not very clean. You eat them all, and I'll let you go. The chameleon smiled more and more wickedly, and when he had finished speaking, he handed the bottle to Count Derek.

Count Derek took the bottle and opened it, only to see that the bottle was bumped with a brownish-yellow paste-like object, and at the same time there was a foul smell coming from his nose, he took a closer look at the contents of the bottle, and subconsciously covered his mouth and began to retch.

"This ...... This ......."

How could he eat such filth?

The chameleon took a step back and sat back in his chair: "Alright, I've made my terms, and what happens after that is up to you, Lord Earl." ”

He looked at Count Derrick, who was in a dilemma, with an evil smile on his face, but his heart burned with raging anger: "Hmph~ Alchemist hiding in the glass flower room, you wait for me." When I'm done here, I'll look for you and give you a tooth for a tooth! ”

He hadn't forgotten the bad luck in the glass flower room.

On the other side, Count Derek hesitated for a while, and suddenly asked, "If I eat it, will you really let me go?" ”

The chameleon nodded 'seriously': "It's true." In fact, that's what my employer asked me to do. Don't blame me, blame the employer behind me, who made him have such a bad taste? ”

"That's good! I eat! ”

Count Derek gritted his teeth, closed his eyes, and smothered the disgusting thing in the bottle in one gulp. When he finished eating, he fell to his knees and began to vomit frantically.

Seeing his tragic appearance of almost vomiting out all his internal organs, the chameleon laughed wildly, patting his thigh while laughing, and pointing at Count Derek with one hand, and the tears of laughter were about to fall.

"Earl, Earl, you really eat, tsk, I really didn't expect that at your age, you have done a lot of bad things in the past, and you are still so naïve, so simple, you would believe the words of a killer? Hmm

Count Derek froze: "You..... What do you mean? ”

The chameleon stood up, a shiny dagger appeared in his hand, he took a step forward, grabbed Count Derrick's collar, and lifted his body directly in the air, the dagger in his hand was aimed at his heart: "Lord Earl, I'm very sorry, I lied just now....... Oh, you look hurt now, how is it, how does it feel to be deceived, Lord Earl? ”

Count Derek looked dead. He didn't expect that this monster would humiliate him so much before killing him, and he felt that his whole life was ruined.

Seeing him like this, the chameleon had no intention of teasing him: "Then goodbye, naïve Earl." ”

As soon as the words fell, the chameleon's hand was forced, and the dagger stabbed forward.

"Hum~"

There was a soft sound, accompanied by a strange white light, in the white light, Count Derek disappeared out of thin air, and the chameleon's dagger stabbed straight into the air.

The chameleon was shocked: "Teleportation magic! ”

Linnaeus's poison didn't even poison the sorceress.

Almost at the same time, the door of the ballroom was pushed open with a thud, and a gray-robed young man appeared in the doorway, it was none other than the magician Green, who held a staff in his hand, the tip of which flashed with blue arcs.

"Chameleon, it's time for you to die!"
