The invasion of heretical creatures disappeared as if it had disappeared overnight.

The chaos in various places disappeared one night, as if there had never been a catastrophe in the world, and this peaceful day lasted for a week.

It was only when the supreme rulers of all regions determined that the danger had been lifted, the civilians were given safety notices, the bans were lifted in the cities, and most of the refugees were on their way home.

Riding horses along the avenue leading to Venice, you can see people rebuilding their homes everywhere, and people's faces finally lift their fears and uneases, and smiles that have not been seen for a long time.

"Seeing this harmonious scene, I always feel like a world away."

The horses under him were slowly walking on their hooves, and Han Qingluo was riding on the horse, looking at the smoke of cooking in the village not far away, and he only felt a burst of emotion.

Who would have thought that a few months ago, she had also been on the battlefield and experienced life and death.

The wars, the disturbances that disturb the peace, leave people homeless, and the chaos that disappears without warning when the war is over is unreal.

Jue followed her gaze and walked side by side with her: "Maybe it's the calm before the storm!" ”

He also felt that all this harmony was not very real, and the demon clan suddenly stopped all actions, I am afraid that they are secretly planning something big.

Jue's words suddenly made Han Qingluo's mood even heavier, if the confrontation between the blood clan and the demon clan failed, then the peace and beauty in front of him today was like a bubble, just a moment of beauty.

In this line, they shoulder the heavy responsibility of the entire blood clan, and even take on the responsibility of protecting the human world.

Never imagined that she would be a part of "saving the world", and an indescribable sense of pride suddenly welled up in her heart.

The heavens will descend on the people, and they must first work hard and work their muscles and bones......

This ancient saying suddenly popped up in his mind, Han Qingluo carried out self-sublimation by himself, probably to be a "savior" himself, so he would have such a hard time in this life, right?

Seeing her frowning for a while, the corners of her lips rising for a while, looking like she was wandering into the distance, Jue lowered her eyes and thought for a moment, then looked up and looked ahead, and shook the reins, urging the horses under her to speed up their pace and not disturb her......

The human world has returned to temporary tranquility, but the blood society still can't let down its vigilance, and potential enemies are still in the dark, eyeing each other.

——

Night, enveloping Venice.

The deep inky waters of the waterway ripple under scattered points of light, shimmering with psychedelic light.

The sea gently swayed and made a soft sound, leading the city to sleep...... Everything is quiet and peaceful.

In the quiet of the night, there were suspicious water stains on a certain street, all the way to the front of an inconspicuous house.

The wind blows gently through the ......

"Squeak", the door was blown open!

The interior of the house was pitch black, and the blurred outline of the furniture could only be seen by the lights hanging from the street outside.

The water stain left behind by the doorway purposefully extends directly to the staircase leading to the second floor, all the way up to the innermost room door.

At this time, the door that should have been closed has long been illogically wide open.

"Whew~"

The wind ruffled the thin curtains, briefly letting in the dim light outside.

Through the beam, you can clearly see that the wind rolls up bits of powder and scatters it to the floor......

On the floor, a vase shattered in half appeared, and the freshly planted flowers inside were soaked in the water and looked dilapidated.

If you look closely, a humanoid pile of dust is scattered on the large bed next to it, and a sharp dagger is mixed in with it.

That night, a certain blood clan hidden in Venice was killed.

——

Riding on the unique means of transportation on the waterway, a water boat called "gondola", Han Qingluo saw the legendary water city - Venice for the first time.

The kayaks that crisscross around you, the water houses that pass by, the exquisite bridges that lie overhead, the waterways, and the streets are full of moving figures......

Han Qingluo was overwhelmed by the colorful Venice, and at first glance he fell deeply into the charm of the city, and he was about to forget the purpose of his trip.

The movement of the ship docking drew her distant gaze back.

"It's time to go ashore!"

Hearing the sound and looking up, Han Qingluo saw a white palm spread out in front of him, it was Jue's.

The corners of Han Qingluo's lips hooked, stretched out his hand to put it on his hand, and took advantage of the strength to go ashore, and the rest of the members also gathered on the shore one after another, and the constantly drifting gaze showed that they were also immersed in the charm of Venice.

This place is different from the depression on the road, it is very lively, like a pure land on earth that is not affected by the world, so that they feel a different fresh vitality.

Passing through the narrow streets, they came to the place mentioned in the letter, a building with red walls and green roofs.

Xu got the news in advance, at this moment two dark red wooden doors are open, and there are two waiters standing on both sides.

As soon as she stepped into the hall, the words "magnificent" immediately popped up in front of her, and Han Qingluo admitted that this was the most luxurious place she had ever visited, and the bright hall was full of precious murals.

A multicolored glass lamp was hung, illuminating the hall brightly and brightly, and she believed that this was the palace.

The smooth marble floor even reflected her figure, and the magnificence of everything around her was out of place with her shabby clothes.

Guided by the attendants, they ascended a marble staircase to a vermilion door, which opened to reveal a large and imposing hall.

A long table inlaid with various colored gems is very conspicuous in the eyes of everyone, and the richness here is different from that of Croatia, and it is simply rich.

No wonder the Seven Elders drove back to Venice without stopping after the negotiations that day, and it was a great place to enjoy life!

There were already a few elders sitting at the long table, and their faces were all very bad, as if something big had happened.

"Thank you for your hard work!"

When Lauren saw the Guardians, she immediately stood up and greeted them.

Jue, as the team leader, simply greeted everyone in a circle, and his eyes suddenly fell on a vacant position.

He had the impression that it should be Elder Bruch who had a bad attitude towards him on the day of the negotiation, and Lauren followed his gaze, and the expression on his face instantly became solemn.

Han Qingluo on the side also noticed something unusual, looking at the vacant seat, thinking to himself that old guy of the blood clan named Dor, is he so grudgeful? When I heard that Jue was coming, I didn't even want to see him.

As a member of the Bruch blood clan, Elk naturally found that among the seven elders, only the elder of his own clan was missing, and wondered: "Why didn't Great Elder Dol attend?" ”

As soon as these words came out, the six elders at the table looked at each other, as if they had something to say.

This time when they came to Venice, their task was to hand over the puppet to the Seven Elders for safekeeping, Jue naturally ignored the question of who could not come, and said directly: "Elders, time is pressing, please transfer the puppet to a safe secret room, in a few days, Elder Norton of Tsmisi will come to seal it, and we will set off first!" With that, he motioned for the others to follow.

"Lord Jue, wait a minute!"

At this point, Lauren opened her mouth to hold them back.

……

Pulling back the thin bed veil, the room instantly brightened up a lot.

Between the broken vases on the ground, the bouquet of flowers soaked in the water beach has gradually withered.

On the bed next to him, the fuzzy shape formed by the pile of scattered powder left on the bed made everyone present understand what was happening.

"Before the rally, the men we sent to inform Elder Dole found out about the tragedy." Lauren stood beside the bed, looking at the dust that had already been blown away all over the room, and her tone was full of loneliness that could not be hidden.

The old guy who has been with him for hundreds of years is suddenly gone, even if the relationship is average, I can't help but feel embarrassed.

The marks on the bed had long been blown away, and it must have been a long time since the incident, and only one vase in the room had been broken, so there was not much movement at that time.

In other words, Dole didn't resist for long, or even too late, to probably just knock over the vase in a panic and be killed by the enemy.

How could an elderly blood-clan with a very high level of blood, with a holy weapon butcher's knife by his side that could cut thousands of troops, be killed so easily?

With the contents of this room alone, there are no superfluous clues for them to deduce, and the most important problem is that the holy weapon torture axe has fallen into the hands of the demons, which is not good news.

The Bruch Blood Clan's holy weapon, the Torture Axe, can increase the strength of the axe-wielder dozens of times during battle, and it is a very powerful weapon, but at the same time, it will make the bearer bleed non-stop, and there are certain side effects.

If this offensive holy weapon falls into the hands of the demon clan, it will definitely be unfavorable to their side, if there is a battle, even if he, a thousand-year-old blood clan, is strong in his own ability, it is impossible to protect everyone, and he can't even retreat with his whole body.

Combined with the recent cessation of the demons' incursions into the human world, coupled with the fact that they killed the small branch of the demons who took away the puppets, the demons seem to have sensed something and accelerated the process of their conspiracy.

"So, the holy weapon torture axe carried by Elder Dol was taken away by the demons?"

Gallo looked around, thinking of this important question, and from Lauren's frowning face, he naturally got the answer.

"So, please, you must recover the torture axe."

Lauren also looked at Jue with an embarrassed face. This guy Dorr is really reckless, he has to carry the most important holy weapon in the clan with him everywhere, which is good, on the cusp of the storm, he was quietly assassinated by the demons.

An elderly blood clan with high seniority and blood age died in this way, and it would be a shame for the clan to spread the word, so he could only notify his clan a few days later and deal with it for the great reason of resisting the enemy's sacrifice.

Facing the expectation in Lauren's eyes, Jue poured a basin of cold water on his mouth: "I'm sorry, Elder Lauren, we can't promise you." ”

"What?"

Lauren was speechless.

"It's been too long since the incident, the demons have long been gone, they have now shifted their attention to the holy weapon, there is not much time left for us, and the main thing is to protect the other holy weapons!"

Jue explained calmly, swept his gaze to the guards, and said, "Let's go!" ”

Lauren understood what Jue meant, and didn't say more, turned his head to Elke on the side and ordered: "Elke, you are Bruch's blood clan, ...... later"

Before he finished speaking, Elk already understood, and said respectfully, "Yes, Elder Lauren!" ”

After Elk finished packing up the remnants of Dole's powder, he handed it over to Elder Lauren to send someone back to the Bruch Lord's land.

The transported puppets have been safely transferred to the vault under guard, and it will be a few days before Elder Norton comes to seal it again, just in case.

Then the Guardians immediately left Venice without stopping, and embarked on a journey to find the Holy Artifact.

This journey is destined to have a bumpy road ahead, they will face an unknown fate, and life and death are only in an instant...... How will the scales of fate tilt in this contest?
