Chapter 5: Back to the Castle

flutter~

As Li De studied the magic that fascinated him, a sound of wings stirring sounded outside the window.

A palm-sized bat flew into the house through the half-open stained-glass window.

Li De's eyes narrowed slightly, this is a bat raised by the Blood Clan's ancient castle, and its purpose is the same as that of a human carrier pigeon.

Deliver information.

Reaching out, the bat hovering in the house was extremely intelligent, and after gliding, it landed lightly in the palm of his hand.

Skillfully holding the bat to his ear, a voice sounded.

"Your Majesty, please go back to the castle as soon as possible."

Two-ring spell, phonograph

A rare spell that Li De had never learned, and the ancestor of the blood clan had little interest in these auxiliary spells.

There are only two second-generation bloodlines in the Bloodline who have learned, and this voice is one of the female Bloodlines named Lucy.

Castle.

Li De was also curious about the base camp of the Blood Clan.

As the ancestor of the Blood Clan, it is time to go back, after all, the Blood Clan is now his roots.

I turned my head to look at the wall clock on the wall, and it was already three o'clock in the afternoon.

Clocks and watches have been around for a long time in this world, but the time is not called the hour, but the time of the sun.

A solar hour is equal to an hour.

It's a little weird, but it's not hard to remember.

Li De shook the magic bell in the room, and the crisp and pleasant sound spread through every corner of the mage tower.

A few minutes later, the sound of Vina's soles of tartars stompping on the floor could be heard from far and near.

Bang bang bang~

The door was pushed open, and the girl gasped a few times, and the bulging chest of the blue mage's robe rose and fell a few times before relieving.

Wei Na's face was slightly rosy.

"Master Li De, what do you command?"

Li De took out the usual excuses before.

"I have a new magic experience, I want to go outside the city to find a few magical beasts to practice"

The Bloodline must eat blood once a month, and while normal food can provide the Bloodline with a certain amount of energy, it cannot provide the unique substance that Blood possesses.

This is true of every Bloodline, even the Bloodline Ancestor.

If you don't suck blood, then the life of the Bloodclan will be in danger.

The Ancestor of the Blood Clan would not attack ordinary people in the city, so he would return to the castle once a month and drink blood in the castle.

The bloodline of the ancestor of the blood clan is extremely mysterious, and even an extraordinary mage cannot find out his true identity in normal ways, so it is not dangerous to lurk in Grimm City.

He would never do these actions that would easily reveal his identity.

So Weina is also used to Li De often going out.

"Lord Li De, please pay attention to safety, I will clean your room"

Li De nodded slightly, and after explaining some trivial matters, he immediately prepared to leave for the castle.

His talent is immune to sunlight, so the sun, which is a natural enemy for the blood clan, cannot hinder him, and he can go out at any time.

The Bloods have a terrible reputation in the eyes of humanity and have always been regarded as mortal enemies, and will be surrounded by armies and mages if discovered.

In order to avoid being taken to the lair, Li De's ancient castle was built deep in the distant mountain range 500 kilometers away from Grimm.

After arranging, go down from the seventh floor to the first floor.

The dozen or so mage apprentices he met along the way all bowed respectfully to him.

As the apprentices who have been accepted into the Mage Tower by Li De in the past three years, these seedlings all have the potential to become mages, although their talents are not good.

Mage is the most difficult and talent-hungry profession, and none of these apprentices have yet to grow into full-fledged mages.

Li Dedu nodded slightly, these apprentices were actually recruited in the first place to cover their identities, so the previous ancestor of the blood clan did not teach them too seriously.

Of course, he didn't have the heart to focus on teaching now, so he had to wait until he had time to deal with these apprentices.

In front of the Scarlet Mage Tower, the two servants had already arranged the carriage.

After Li De appeared on the street wearing a blue high-level mage robe, the surrounding crowd instantly showed a look of fear.

Many civilians even lowered their heads directly, not daring to look at him directly.

Because they have been studying magic in the mage tower all year round, most mages are a bit withdrawn...... So the mage's eccentric temper is well known.

Mages who have mastered mysterious magic and possess far more power than ordinary people have always been the object of envy and fear of the common people.

If you offend a nobleman, maybe the other party will only whip a few lashes, but if you offend a mage, the other party can make them see death with a single magic.

Looking at the envious and fearful expressions of many people, Li De didn't react, these scenes are too common in memory.

Even the nobles of Green City did not dare to be presumptuous in front of a high-ranking mage with great power, magic is truth, and the aphorism of the goddess of magic has always been the supreme belief of mages.

The inside of the carriage is luxurious, and the fur of the unknown monster is sewn into blooming luanwei flowers.

The fluffy cushions are even more comfortable than the sofa, and they collapse in a large chunk.

The carriage is separated by glass windows on both sides of the carriage, and when the curtains are lifted, you can see the scene on both sides of the road.

Although Li De admits that the city has a strong exotic atmosphere, the degree of dirt and mess still makes him, a modern person who is accustomed to the neatness and cleanliness of the city, frown.

Clogged sewers, rats crawling up the streets, and even beggars who take off their pants conveniently in the alleys.

All the scenes illustrate the ignorance and backwardness of this era.

At the same time, it was so real that Li De was reluctant to look away.

Whether it is the scheming vendors on the street or the nobles who pass by from time to time, the expressions on their faces, body movements, and behaviors show that this world is not a virtual game.

Everyone has a soul of their own, and they are all a living being.

It took a day and a half for the carriage to pull out of the towering city walls, an unbelievably large city of a million people...... There are no modern high-rise buildings here, and the low land utilization rate is frightening.

Not far from the city gate, he asked two servants to park the carriage next to an uninhabited wood, and Li De got out of the carriage alone.

The two servants had long been accustomed to his behavior, and after saying goodbye to him, they hurried back to the city.

Li De entered the woods and used a two-ring spell, reconnaissance, but did not find the existence of outsiders.

Mind opens the attribute panel and looks at the skills above to directly use the racial talent of the blood clan.

Become a bat.

Transform into a Bat: You can transform into 100 small bats, each containing 5% of the power, and as long as there is one bat, you can be reborn. It is also possible to conjure up bat wings to fly, which is 50% faster than that of small bats.

This skill can almost be called the strongest life-saving skill of the blood clan.

Transform into 100 bats, and if you spread out and fly, you can be reborn and resurrected if you escape one.

It is enough to rank at the top of the escape skills.

Similarly, it can also be used to rush the road.

Because it is a racial talent, the process of Li De's spell casting is even easier than that of the small fireball technique.

Brush~

A flash of black smoke flickered.

Li De's figure disappeared in an instant, and hundreds of bats fluttered their wings and took off on the spot.
