The next morning, while it was still dark, Felik waited at the appointed place for someone from the Howell family to pick him up.

He had been several hours ahead of schedule, but to his surprise, the Howells had already arrived before he arrived.

Felik got into the carriage alone and drove out of the royal city, to the mansion of the Howell family on the edge of the royal city, where they lived in a beautiful environment, surrounded by lush trees, and an excellent training place built in the woods, when passing by Felik could still hear the faint sound of fighting, someone should have gotten up early to train.

Like the other four families, the address of the Howell family's mansion was very close to the royal city, and it only took a short distance to enter the royal city, so it was very convenient to get around, so Felik did not have to wait long to reach his destination.

When you get out of the car, you will see a tall iron gate, a long marble paved road directly opposite, and a fountain in the middle gushing outward.

The sound of birds fluttering their wings in the woods mixed with the sound of tinkling water is very clear on such a quiet morning.

From afar, while the beautiful mansion was sleeping, the servants of the Howell family had already begun their busy work.

Under the guidance of the servant, Felik walked across the stone path and entered the hall, where shields, spears, swords and halberds were displayed on the walls on both sides of the hall.

The corresponding portraits of some people should be the heads of the Howell family, and maybe these weapons next to them were used by them.

It is worthy of a family that uses dancing knives and swords, and the places where they live are different from ordinary people, Felik thought to himself.

"It's huge." Felik couldn't help but say it.

As soon as he said this, he felt that something was wrong, so he cautiously glanced to the side, and was relieved to see that the servants were all bowing their heads respectfully.

There were two doors on the left and right sides of this hall, and there was a thin man standing on the stairs that circled left and right to the second floor.

In Felik's eyes, this man was like a matchstick, his cheekbones were slightly sunken, and he looked like he was malnourished, but his eyes were bright and penetrating, as if he could see through people's hearts.

This is the butler, Felik thought to himself, he thought to himself, he thought that the other party would take him to see the head of the house, but unexpectedly, the other party smiled slightly, stepped forward and shook his hand warmly.

"I've been waiting for you for a long time, Lord Felik. I'm Jon, the current head of the Howell family. The skinny man said.

This action caught Felik off guard, and he looked at the middle-aged man in front of him who was as tall as a matchstick, and couldn't believe that the other party was the rumored dragon slayer warrior.

"You...... Hello. ”

"I'm here so early, I guess I haven't eaten yet, I have someone to prepare a rich breakfast, if you don't mind, let's enjoy it together."

At Jon's kind invitation, Felik had to go to the restaurant with him, and he felt that his opponent's routine was very deep and really difficult.

This move is completely unreasonable, and now I don't even know what he wants to do to himself.

However, Felik was sure that inviting himself over was not an exchange of feelings to bring him closer, and he not only snatched Jonah's running spot, but also beat Bill, and there was no reason for the Howell family to be so nice to him.

With that, Felik sat down at the table with Jon on the edge of his head, and began to enjoy a delicate breakfast.

There were only two people at the meal, Jon and Felik, who were obviously specially prepared for him, and this strange routine made Felik have to be vigilant.

The other party said this to Felik without a match, and the content was probably that he was very powerful and admirable at a young age, and he was extremely grateful that he didn't get hurt Bill.

Jon's polite words were repeated by Felik, and his vigilance slowly wore off, but his attention was drawn to the delicious food, and he began to enjoy the rich breakfast in earnest.

"It's all because of my lack of discipline, and if it weren't for some troubles that have plagued me lately, this unpleasant thing wouldn't have happened." Jon sighed.

As he spoke, he looked at Felik sharply with a falcon-like gaze, and the change in the other party's expression was not missing a single omission, and he invited the other party here not for that kind of trivial matter, but to confirm an extremely important matter.

Recently, there have been several very strange murders in the imperial capital, although the number of victims is not large, but the death and identity of the deceased are very special, and they all died in the jurisdiction of the Howell family, which makes Jon have to pay attention.

The blood of the victim's whole body was completely drained, there was no trace left at the scene except for a few blood stains, the corpses were all found in the morning, the murderer was likely to act only at night, and it was not easy to drain all the blood without a single drop, the first thing he thought of was those evil black magicians, only those people would kill innocents indiscriminately for the evil ritual.

And why invite Felik?

It's all because he hears an interesting thing from Bill's cry - the man who defeated him has the power to manipulate blood, and also exudes an aura that feels evil.

Although the first impression of the young man in front of him on Jon was not evil, but very ordinary, he would never take it lightly, after all, this was the only clue at the moment.

Let's try it, Jon thought about it and said, "It's really surprising to hear that Your Excellency defeated Jonah, there are very few adventurers with such strength as you, don't I wonder how Your Excellency trains himself, or is it not a solitary practice, but a superior person to guide you?" ”

"Well, Mr. Jon doesn't need to be so polite, just call me Felik." Felik scratched his head and said embarrassedly, the other party's compliment made him a little shy.

"It's just that McGson has dealt with Warcraft a lot, and his natural strength has gradually become stronger, and he doesn't have a master, but he often communicates with everyone in the guild and learns some unpopular combat skills, which can only be regarded as a wild way."

"Hahaha." Jon laughed heartily three times and waved his hand: "Don't be humble, Felik, your strength is comparable to that of an imperial knight, which is enough to be proud of the others in the imperial capital." ”

"Where, where~~"

Thousands of clothes are worn, but only sycophants are not worn, and Felik began to feel that the matchstick-like uncle in front of him was a little pleasing to the eye.

The atmosphere at the table became more and more harmonious, and the topic of the two gradually opened, seeing that the time was about the same, Jon gave a slight hint to the servant not far away, and at this time, a person rushed into the dining room at an inopportune time, and ran over in a panic: "Master! Trouble!! ”

"What?! Don't see I'm dining with a guest? Jon shouted angrily.

But the servant did not stop, quickly stepped forward and handed over a document, and said in a trembling voice: "Master, another dead man has appeared!" ”

As soon as these words came out, Felik could also sense that Jon's face changed, he reached out and took the document, opened it and swept it roughly, his expression became more solemn and serious, his already thin and sunken cheeks turned white, and he became like a skeleton, and anyone who saw it knew that he would be angry immediately.

Could this be the trouble in the other party's mouth? Felik didn't dare to talk nonsense, just quietly observed the other party's expression, while carefully drinking the breakfast porridge on the table.

After a while, Jon put down the papers, looked at Felik with an embarrassed face, his mouth opened but he didn't say anything, Felik realized that the other party had something to do to entertain him, and he was happy to leave the place, so Felik took the initiative to give the other party the stairs down.

"Mr. Jon, I remembered that I had something to do, so I'll go first."

"No, no, no!" Jon pressed Felik, who was about to get up: "It doesn't have to be like this, it's my personal problem, I won't hide it from you......"

Before the word "say" could be spoken, Felik interrupted directly

"No, no, you can hide it, I don't want to know."

Jon was stunned for a moment, and became serious, it was the first time he had seen such a shameless young man in his life for so long, and it seemed that he had to deal with it well.

"To tell you the truth, I'm very distressed by this murder."

So he forcibly ignored Felik's feelings, and after forcibly speaking, he pushed the document in front of Felik.

When he met his opponent, this old man was quite shameless, Felik meditated in his heart, looked down at the document, on which was a name, and below it was a few lines of words, about the death of this person.

Felik frowned slightly after reading it, revealing a curious expression: "The blood in the whole body is sucked dry, is there really such a thing?" ”

Felik is no stranger to sucking blood out of his body, and there are many demons and black magic who can do it, but this is quite bizarre when it happens in the imperial capital.

The imperial capital is the heart of the empire, gathering the most powerful magicians and warriors, and the headquarters of the Holy See is also in the imperial capital, it is impossible for evil black magicians to hide their traces in the imperial capital, and it is also quite far away from the demon world, and the strength of the demon race to this distance has been greatly reduced, and it is undoubtedly a crime against the wind to do this kind of thing in the imperial capital.

So this kind of vampire incident in the imperial capital is quite outrageous.

"Your Excellency thinks it's outrageous." Jon sighed, grimacing, "I don't have a clue about this either. ”

Looking at Jon's troubled appearance, Felik didn't know what to say to comfort him, he always felt that he was superfluous here, but he couldn't think of a reason to leave in this situation.

What to do? This uncle looks like he's in trouble.

Will he ask me for help, and what will I do if he asks me for help?

While Felik was still thinking, the question that scared him the most came the most.

"Felik, can you help me check?"

Looking into Jon's expectant eyes, Felik swallowed and laughed awkwardly.

"How can I help? I don't have enough energy to spare. ”

"Now that the killer has left no trace, it is almost impossible to find him, but apparently he has no intention of stopping his crimes, and if we wait for him, we may be able to catch him. I have sent men to ambush the murderers where they may appear, and if he moves, he will surely fall into the trap. ”

Jon spoke his plan.

"Oh, I wish you success, I'll go first." Felik couldn't wait to pull away.

"Wait a minute! Truth be told, there is one condition that needs to be met in order to implement this plan. Jon pressed Felik again, who tried to get up.

Uncle, why do you have so much to hide? Can everyone communicate with each other to be honest, Felik looked at Jon in despair, feeling that the other party's routine was too deep, and he was not an opponent at all.

He had an ominous premonition that he had to take over this trip in the muddy waters, and maybe he would have to take a bath in the muddy waters.

Sure enough, the other party's next sentence gave Felik a fatal blow.

He gave Felik a reason to accept.
