"Riel, I'm Tonys,...... Oh, nothing,...... I just want to meet you alone, yes, later...... yes, just the two of us, okay,...... 9 o'clock, the Aurora bar, you know, okay, that's it. ”

Then, he sorted out the topics of the evening and picked up the phone again: "Matalha, prepare my dress, thank you." "In the Scottish Highlands, where there is perennial fog, the fog sloping down from the top of the hill and rushing down like a tide.

Thomas found a stone halfway up the hill and sat down, took out a bottle of water from his backpack and took a sip, today's weather was gloomy and cold, he looked at the small village in the distance through the thin mist, he didn't like the foggy environment, wet and cold, the condensation on the grass made his pants and shoes soaked, and his breathing was heavy, he raised his hand and looked at his watch 10 minutes after the appointed time, and he hadn't seen anyone from the wolf clan appear, maybe they were secretly observing his every move.

In the distance, I saw several figures walking towards him, the figures became clearer and clearer, and 4 people came, the leader was Wellstein, 2 of them were carrying a shotgun, dressed no different from ordinary people, it seemed that they were hunters hunting in the mountains, they walked about 5 meters away from Thomas and stopped, a bearded man shouted to Thomas: "Hey, are you sent by Ophelina?" ”

Thomas raised his hand and replied simply, approaching him, Willstein stood in front of Thomas and looked at him, the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, showing a contemptuous look, "Are you a person?" ”

Thomas shrugged, "Of course. ”

"Do you know who we are? Or do you know who you're working for? ”

"Of course, I think you're Willstein...... Mr. He said to the old man standing in front.

Willstein laughed and looked back at his companions, and everyone laughed along with Willstein, "Vampires now have to rely on humans to negotiate?" I thought the vampires had reconciled with God. This sentence caused everyone to laugh.

Thomas laughed along, which caused Willstein's disgust, and he thought Thomas was laughing at him, and he said with a cold face: "You give me a special feeling, but it doesn't work with me, and what you care about now is when you are going to hand over the 'ribs of death'." ”

"yes, so I think it's necessary to talk to you about it."

"I don't think you're in charge, you'd better call Ophelina out and send an errand runner to talk, isn't it child's play?"

"I don't think so, I think I can make all the decisions on behalf of Ophelina, so I feel compelled to talk to you."

"Hmph, child, I advise you, it's best not to get involved, I don't want you to risk your life for money, do you know what I mean?"

"Of course, it's very clear. I guess we should cut to the nitty-gritty, I've had enough of the cold here. Thomas wrapped his clothes tighter.

Wellstein felt helpless, "Since Your Excellency is so determined, then, let's hear it." ”

"Ophelina has agreed to take out the 'Death Rib' in exchange, and you can also save your son through this thing, but I hope you don't give it to the demon, and our two families should cooperate to drive the demon back to hell again, and this is what we have to negotiate."

Willstein was stunned for a few seconds, then burst out laughing, and everyone else was laughing, laughing at Thomas's childishness, while Thomas looked indifferent, waiting for the werewolf to make fun of him.

"Boy, you let me use the 'Death Rib' to trick the demon into saving my son first, and then turn his face with him, I appreciate your idea very much, and I am willing to drive the demon back with the blood clan, and I don't think you are a little baby spoiled by your mother, your naivety does not mean that the demon is a fool." Willstein pointed at Thomas viciously, and his voice was swift, and some spit splattered on Thomas's face.

Thomas wiped the saliva on his face with one finger in disgust, and he said unhurriedly: "It seems that your relationship with the demon is not as bad as rumored, I can hear that you are defending the demon." ”

Willstein snorted coldly, "Whatever you say, I don't care what you think, what you just said is nonsense, if I don't give that thing to the devil, Neo will die at any time, I won't watch my own child die like this." ”

Thomas turned his head to look at Welstein's boy, then turned his eyes to Welstein, "Well, you have a point, do you think that after the demon saved your child, he will let you go as if nothing happened?" ”

Willstein was silent for a while, "I don't know, maybe what you said makes sense, I think we still have room to maneuver, and when the time comes, take a step and see a step." ”

"In fact, you know the outcome, it's just that you don't want to accept it." Thomas pointed in front of Willstein and said, "If you think about it, it's not strange that this happened, the demon gave them a task to branch the Bloodline, and then went to you to steal something from the Bloodline, to put it more clearly, the demon is using your hands to destroy the Bloodline, if the Bloodline is destroyed, it will be a matter of time before you turn around and destroy you." ”

Wellstein thought to himself this damn bastard with a cold hatred for Thomas.

He wanted to take a bite of Thomas now, but he had to admit that what the man said was reasonable, "We'll find a solution, we're looking for a stronger force to fight the demons." ”

"Come on, Mr. Welstein, what else can you do if you surrender your most powerful allies to the demons? When the time comes, you'll be left alone, and the demons will tease you like a cat and a mouse, and then slowly torture you to death, and finally you will have your last breath left. ”

"You don't need to worry about this, I will find a solution, or I advise you, you can get out of here as soon as you can, maybe one day you will die here for no apparent reason." Willstein pointed hard at the ground, and then turned to leave, while the rest of the people followed Willstein away.

"What if I could give you more power?" Thomas shouted behind him, and Willstein did not look back or answer.

"You're going to kill more people, including your son, are you saving him just so he can watch the devil slaughter his own villagers? I don't think you're a coward......" The phrase caused Willstein to hear 'coward' come to a sudden halt and the man insulting him and everything he had done to Neo.

"If that's the case, why don't you give me the 'rib of death', I think letting your son die can save the survival of both families, I think it's very worthwhile, I'm sure your son will agree, what do you think?" Willstein was completely enraged, and he was no longer suppressing his anger.

"Don't listen to him, he's trying to provoke you, father." Neo put his arm on Willstein's shoulder and reassured him that it didn't work at all, and Willstein turned into a werewolf and pounced on Thomas.

Willstein couldn't stand the arrogant man in front of him for a long time, he stepped back and kicked the ground hard, jumped up and opened his sharp claws, and opened the snow-white fangs in his bloody mouth It was chilling, Neo ran in the direction of Thomas He wanted to stop his father's impulse, he also turned into a werewolf to chase his father, only to hear a muffled sound and a scream from his father, he saw his father's body flying towards him, he hugged Willstein in the air, and Willstein shook his stunned head, his head didn't know what hit him hard.

The others arrived, someone pulled out a gun and pointed it at Thomas's forehead, Willstein stood up and prepared to attack again, he saw a man standing behind Thomas looking at them, when was there one more?

Afi Miller looked at the werewolf, opened his wings with a hula, put his left hand on the hilt of the sword, it was the angel, Willstein and his subordinates subconsciously jumped back for a distance, their instinctive reaction found that the enemy stronger than themselves needed to pull a distance, they looked at the angel and Thomas quietly, they didn't know what the other party was going to do.

"Okay, you and I have already shown our hole cards, it seems that my hole cards are big by you, how about let's continue the topic just now?"

Welstein turned back into human form and ripped off the rags left on his clothes and walked towards Thomas, "It's an angel, an angel from heaven, have you betrayed heaven and become a fallen angel?" ”

Afimüller pulled out the 'Anti-Satan' and placed it in front of him, "I swear to Michael's holy sword that I will always be loyal to the kingdom of heaven." ”

Everyone saw that the holy sword was wrapped in blue flames, which in their eyes were the flames of fear, and Willstein suddenly put on a counterattack posture, ready to give it a go, even though he knew that there was no chance of victory.

"Okay, you see, I also have a good hand, let's sit down and talk."

Willstein nodded helplessly, he completely underestimated the ordinary man in front of him, who couldn't be more ordinary, but he didn't expect him to have stronger power in his hands, "Okay, let's talk about it again, what are you going to do?" ”

"First of all, I have a reason why I have to get back the 'Rib of Death', this thing must not fall into the hands of the demon, the second is that I want to drive the demon back to hell completely, and the third is that I am looking for a few things, I suspect that it is here, of course, as for the last one, I am still groping."

Willstein looked and then looked at Thomas and asked, "What's the use of you wanting 'death ribs'?" ”

Thomas crossed his hands over his chest and walked in front of Willstein, deciding to tell him the truth to show his sincere cooperation, "Well, I'm trusted, uh......" He felt was inaccurate and added, "I made a deal with Death, and I want to get its ribs back." "You're crazy, no one dares to make a deal with 'death.'"

"Thanks for reminding you, you're not the first person to say that, but I think it's a fair deal."

"Well, since you said that, my priority is to save Neo, and I'd love to drive the demon back to hell, but I don't think we'll succeed." He looked at Affy Miller not far away.

"As long as you plan it properly, it's totally fine, now you are the key, and only you can lure the demon out."

"Me?" Willstein wondered.

"You can send a message to the demons to show up at the trade, and then the Bloods will face the demons with you, and let the demons free Neo in front of your two clans, and I will execute the demons at the most opportune time, and it's up to you whether they can show up at the deal, Mr. Willstein."

"What if the demon doesn't get the 'rib of death'?"

"You have to show that after liberating Neo, you will draw a line between the blood and the demon, give the demon a false impression, you are neutral, how you want to execute the blood has nothing to do with me, let the demon let down his guard, you become the side that the demon is least worried about, we will succeed, in fact, this is what you think."

Willstein thought for a moment, "Yes, that's what we intended, and I still have one condition. ”

"Huh?"

"I want William. Minosta's head, I'm going to slash that beast myself. ”

"Of course, this Ophelina also thought of it, she doesn't think that your condition is unreasonable, but this issue is not the most critical, we have to take into account the overall situation, if there is no chance, I hope you can put aside this prejudice for the time being."

"No way. It's hard to control, and I don't think the rest of us are willing to give up that opportunity. ”

"Well, I'll think again."

"When are you ready?"

"Two days later, a place west of the Romby River, so you're running out of time."

"Of course. It's the best of both worlds. ”

"There's one thing I'm still thinking about right now......"

"What?"

"There are traitors in the Bloodline, it's an uncertain factor."

"I know." Thomas was not surprised, and nodded for Wellstein to continue, "Before that, someone from the Bloodline gave us Olovia's itinerary, which was very detailed and accurate. ”

"Do you know who is behind it?"

"I don't know, it's a messenger, it seems to be a well-trained messenger, and the power is not under those blood-given elders, this I will probe the demon's tone again, don't have too much hope."

"I understand, well, if that's the case, then we're on the same page." Thomas held out his hand to Wellstein, who spat on his palm, much to Thomas's surprise, who didn't want that.

"It's our rule, and no matter how things change, we won't go back." Willstein explained, and Thomas reluctantly spat on his hand, and the two shook hands and said goodbye, as Thomas wiped his hands on his pants as he watched Welstein's back as he left.

※

In the middle of the night, Wellstein ignited the bones of the crows in the bowl and let out a long wolf howl into the sky. He heard a noise in the forest, and watched, and Mephistopheles came out of the forest and said, "Looks like you've brought me good news, haven't you?" Willstein. ”

"The Bloods have agreed to exchange the 'Rib of Death' for Olovia, two nights later west of the Romby River."

"Very well, bring it to me, I guarantee that Neo is intact."

"You're going to be there, too, and you're going to trade in front of everyone." Willstein told Mephistophelis firmly, but he didn't answer, and he looked at the wolf leader in front of him, not knowing what he meant by that.
