Volume II: The Detective Assistant Chapter Twenty-Three: A Strange Invitation

Three days later, sure enough, the emperor really found the noble magician, it was Bartlett Clark, and at noon the Clark family sent it over in a carriage.

Yuna and Edvina are naturally reluctant to let an inexplicable person become the head of the Ford Heslett family, because he is not worthy of it, even if he is lucky, they will do everything to make each other suffer, even if Sherlock becomes a vampire and becomes their enemy, so what, Ian can also help Sherlock keep the family standing, and there is no need for outsiders to interfere.

Bartlett looked at the four of them with unkind faces, but he didn't care at all: "The emperor asked me to replace Sherlock Ford Heslett, after all, he is a vampire, and there is no chance of coming back, and even if he comes back, he is only the public enemy of Atlante in England." ”

"There's no need." Just as Edvina was about to retort when she heard it, she heard an extremely cold voice behind her: "Viscount Clark, you are not needed here. ”

Bartlett didn't expect the other party to be here, but the emperor god didn't tell him at all, looking at the other party I don't know why he was a little scared for a while, and subconsciously took two steps back, I don't know why he felt that there was something on the other party that made him feel afraid, and that kind of full majesty came to his face in an instant, but he also had the courage to say: "What are you doing, the emperor asked me to come." ”

Edwina looked at Bartlett, who was very arrogant just now, and was now scared like that by Ian, and couldn't help but feel happy, but her face didn't show it.

"As a viscount, you want to replace Earl Ford Heslett as the head of the family, do you think you are qualified enough, I am the head of the Hazlitt family, but I will not let outsiders interfere in the affairs of the Ford Heslett family, Anna, send off." Every word Ian uttered seemed to have been tempered in the flames, louder than louder, pressing forward step by step.

Bartlett stepped back step by step, he was extremely angry in his heart but he didn't dare to attack, thinking that what the other party said was really overbearing, it was better to let the emperor come over to solve it, he didn't know that the queen didn't agree even if the emperor god came, it would be useless.

What's more, now that Her Majesty has known what happened to Sherlock, she has never proposed to let other nobles inherit the head of the Ford Heslett family, precisely because she knows that there is another one that can be replaced, until Sherlock returns, so the emperor's move is completely on behalf of the emperor, so the five of them have the right to refuse.

Soon Bartlett told the emperor what happened today, and the emperor relayed it to Her Majesty, but he was scolded for being bloody, obviously disagreeing with his approach, the head of any family, unless he is a relative or a comrade-in-arms of the previous head of the family, cannot be transferred at will.

Therefore, Bartlet's move to occupy the magpie's nest naturally did not succeed, and the position of head of the two major families fell on Ian.

Killing took place again on the main street of Brent, the vampires invaded again, the people in the streets fled in all directions, the vampires tortured dozens of citizens in just a few minutes, the British reserve was reopened, and all the survivors were protected.

It's just that there is always a mistake in Baimi, and there are citizens who have not had time to hide in the protected area The enchantment has been closed by these survivors by pressing the button, and the countless vampire groups behind them rushed towards them at an incredible speed, and in the blink of an eye, these eight citizens were all killed in front of the survivors, and in an instant, blood flowed into a river, and the wails on Brent Main Street were heard one after another.

During this time, hundreds of vampires have been slaughtered one by one by the millions of demon knights and ghost knights of the Hazlitt and Ford Heslett families, and in the end, only four vampire nobles remain.

Ian had a bloody cut on his left cheek, and the blood flowed from the wound to his chin, but he ignored it, and looked at Sherlock standing opposite him, no matter what, to free Sherlock from the oni clan, because this time he had only met someone who really treated him sincerely, because neither of them was human.

The human heart has always been unpredictable and unpredictable, so he never believed in human beings, because in his opinion the human heart is simply ugly.

Barrett glanced at Sherlock beside him, and suddenly raised his lips and smiled: "Sherlock, it seems that you haven't let go of those people in your heart." ”

Sherlock glanced at him coldly, his starry blue eyes with a hint of sarcasm: "Barrett, if you want to attack him, defeat me first." ”

That kind of strong and domineering momentum shocked Barrett, some of whom were as feared as His Majesty the Supreme King of their ghost clan, and he was stunned for almost half a second before he smiled again and said, "Don't be angry, I'm just joking." ”

With Sherlock's ability, before Barrett could defeat the other party, he would be crippled by the other party first, which was more than worth the loss.

"Hush."

Sherlock ignored him, he would not let his people hurt the magic city of Atlante, England, including anyone in the Ford Heslett mansion, and the people of the Hazlitt family, he had never thought of becoming a vampire, and he would definitely return.

Ian raised the purple-black skull light electric sword, the tip of the sword pointed at Barrett who was standing on Sherlock's left, rain mixed with blood dripping from the long sword, and a huge six-pointed star magic array suddenly appeared in the sky above his head, a dazzling purple light with the sound of lightning shone down, and suddenly, the night sky was illuminated as bright as day, and a six-pointed star array appeared under his feet at the same time.

A young man in a black tuxedo appeared behind him, a pair of red eyes stared coldly at the three people opposite, but there was a smile on his face from beginning to end, Ian immediately ordered coldly: "Black gentleman, I order you to rescue Sherlock with me immediately." ”

"Yes."

A dark purple six-pointed star magic array appeared under Sherlock's feet, and a blazing wave of fire swept up to form a vortex that instantly reached the sky, forming a six-pointed star array in the sky, and the black gentleman held a huge black scythe in his hand, standing behind Sherlock, but his hostility was obviously aimed at the three Barretts, and the demon contractor and the magician would never become a vampire.

In the next moment, the eight people were fighting with each other, and in an instant, there was a sword and sword shadow on the scene, but Sherlock was obviously helping Ian's side, because he was not a vampire of the ghost clan, and the three Barrett found that something was wrong, in fact, he understood very well that the other party had always thought that he would never say that he would help them, but he suddenly waved the long sword in his hand but slashed at Ian, blood mixed with rain dripped down from the long sword, and he was about to slash at the other party, but he was blocked by the long sword in his hand in mid-air, The strength of the opponent's arms was surprisingly great, and it separated his long sword at once.

Barrett couldn't help but be very surprised, before he came back to his senses, Sherlock had already swung the black ghost branch sword in his hand and forcibly cut off his right hand holding the long sword, blood splattered instantly, and the other two companions broke free from the attack of the black gentleman and the black gentleman, and took Barrett away, and the next moment disappeared into the darkness, and before leaving, one of them glared at Sherlock viciously.

At this time, the horizon was already slightly glowing with a bright white light, and Sherlock glanced at the corpse remains all over the ground: "The people of Atlante, England, already know that I have become the public enemy of the whole of Britain, but when did I, Sherlock Ford Heslet, fear these people." ”

Wait, he will live, live past those who wish him to die, and he will see those who tried to insult him and trample on him fall into the abyss and fall to pieces.

The corners of Ian's lips lifted slightly, revealing a smile that was too shallow to be seen.

In the Emperor's Palace, Bartlett was invited here by a strange invitation, and the envelope on it only had five words written on it, "Demon Contractor", and there was only one person with this title in the entire Atlante Magic City in England, and that was Sherlock Ford Heslett, Earl of Ford Heslet, the head of the Ford Heslett family.

At this moment, a handsome young man wearing a light blue earl uniform looked cold, as if he had stepped into the threshold, walked in, and walked all the way to the center of the hall in the eyes full of shock, but his eyes were indifferent, and he tried his best to avenge the other party and help him sit in the position of God, but as soon as he had a problem here, he couldn't wait to let an outsider take his place.

Carlos looked at the other party and was almost speechless in surprise, in fact, although Sherlock avenged him before, and later helped him sit in this position, but in the end, he became the current emperor god through the hands of the other party, not to mention that he will always be manipulated by the other party like a puppet before the contract period between himself and the other party expires, and maybe one day he will die under the guillotine inexplicably like the previous emperor god.

He didn't want to relapse into the mistakes of the former emperor god, so he wanted to take advantage of the fact that the other party became a vampire to completely expel him from the United Kingdom, and originally planned to expel him from the country together with the head of the Hazlitt family, Ian, but in fact, things were far more difficult than he imagined, and the influence of the two in the Atlante Demon City in England was even higher than that of himself, the emperor god, and they were the top magicians who Her Majesty could not do without him.

However, Carlos is afraid that as long as these two people are there, his position as an emperor will be threatened every day, and he will always live on the day when he may come to an end at any time.

"Emperor God, if you want to expel the head of my magician Ford Heslett family, the commander of the Count Sherlock, and the demon contractor, you will never have a chance, in the end, the war in the British Atlante Demon City is not over yet, compared to making a feud with me, the Emperor God still wants to think about how to ensure that the British Atlante Demon City will not be destroyed by you."

Sherlock's words caught everyone present off guard for a while, and the emperor god was obviously extremely surprised and couldn't help blurting out: "I was born in England, and everything I did was of course to protect the country. ”

"With your words, Her Majesty the Queen can rest assured, but I hope that the emperor will do what he says, otherwise it will disappoint the British people."

In Carlos's eyes, it seems that since the other party has signed a contract with him and avenged him, but as long as the deadline has not yet expired, the other party must willingly continue to assist him until he sits firmly on the throne of the emperor god, but from the other party's current attitude, I am afraid it is not easy.

But—

"This is the Emperor's Mansion, not a vegetable market where you can run rampant, if I let someone tell Commander Philip what happened to you in the past few days, I will see if you can still sit firmly in this earl's position!"
