Chapter 21: The First Card

Hearing Victor's slow explanation of the secrets of the blood clan to himself, Xu Mo once again affirmed that his original plan had worked.

The old werewolf's sacrifice was not worthless, he not only set the little werewolf Caesar free, but also seriously injured Tannis. If it is said that coming into contact with the werewolf clan in the castle of San Cisse is the beginning of Xu Mo's card game, then using the old werewolf to seriously injure or even kill Baron Tannis is Xu Mo's first card.

No matter how much larger Xu Mo's new room was than the small room where the slaves lived before, it would not be able to allow the combat power of the two high-ranking warriors in this world to be fully unleashed, not to mention that these two people still had scruples, for fear of accidentally injuring Xu Mo and the little werewolf.

However, compared to Tannis, a blood nobleman who has cultivated both magic and martial arts, the old werewolf, who has rich experience in hand-to-hand combat and is determined to live and die, can play extraordinarily in this environment. And Tennis, whose vast majority of spells are restricted, if it weren't for the fact that his physical strength and level surpassed the old werewolf, I'm afraid that the two strong men would die together.

The secret told by Prince Victor fully confirms the information of the exorcist Billy, Victor's biological daughter, Princess Sonia, is in love with Garcia, the younger brother of the werewolf leader Lucian, but this Shakespearean love has pushed all the blood clans of the castle of San Cisse into the cold abyss.

Xu Mo compared the traditions of this world and imagined the situation in the present world when a medieval Roman princess was messing with a pet dog, and this matter was also used by the citizens of Rome as an after-dinner complaint and pastime.

Although the High Werewolves already possess wisdom no less than that of humans and Bloods, most of the members are still non-verbal wolfbeasts. And in the hearts of the blood clan, the werewolves who have been used as watchdogs by the blood clan for dozens of centuries are undoubtedly no different from Xu Mo's pet dogs in the world.

On the contrary, the individual strength is a few streets behind the werewolves, but because of its rich and delicate feelings and wisdom, in the years of uprisings and rebellions, it has slowly gained the recognition of the blood clan, and it is precisely because of this that Erwin of Corsica and Prince Victor of St. Cisse can accept a human to become a real blood noble.

Recognizing the humans who were originally blood fooders, it does not mean that the blood clan will recognize the werewolves who were originally watchdogs, at least every human has high intelligence, they love cleanliness, pursue a better life and freedom, and the richness of feelings and thoughts is better than that of the blood clan.

But werewolves are different, even if they are high-intelligence werewolves, their minds are still simple and simple compared to humans and blood clans, their pursuits and ideals are extremely realistic, they do not have rich imagination and creativity, and even their emotional lives are very direct, closer to beasts.

Such a race, even if the best of them are considered to be the best among humans and bloodlines, but in the eyes of the bloodline, the werewolf with complete evolution is still just a talking watchdog. Once Sonia and Garcia's love affair is known by the blood clans of other clans, the entire Saint Cisse blood clan will not be able to hold their heads up in front of their own kind, not to mention that Sonia and Garcia still have the crystallization of their love.

If the object of the tryst with Garcia is not Princess Sonia, Baron Tannis will immediately choose to kill the couple who have crossed the taboo at the same time as breaking the matter. However, one of the couples was Princess Sonia, so Tannis, in desperation, had to inform Prince Victor.

Xu Mo listened to Victor's narration full of grief and helplessness, and he could fully imagine the shock and anger of this blood prince after learning about this incident.

But Victor, who usually dotes on his daughter, not only can't kill Sonya, but also temporarily spares Garcia under the bitter plea of Princess Sonia threatening her own life. Just confined Sonia in the highest tower and beat Garcia into the dungeon at the bottom of that tower, so that the lovers could be in the same place, but at the end of the world.

Similarly, among the nobles of the Bloodline who knew the inside story, Victor only dared to let Baron Tannis take on the task of guarding Sonia and Garcia. This has nothing to do with Tannis's strength, one is because after Tannis found out about this forbidden love, he notified Victor and did not choose to hide it.

The second is due to his identity, but Victor does not elaborate on this. And the other blood nobles of Saint Cise, if they are related to other blood clans, Victor does not dare to let them know the inside story, or they are Sonya's admirers, and they are likely to let Sonya go for personal favoritism. Victor can let Sonya go, but he can't tolerate the child in Sonya's womb living on top of this world.

Similarly, after Billy's intelligence learned that Princess Sonia was pregnant with Rokka, Xu Mo had already guessed that Baron Tannis, who broke the love affair between Sonia and Garcia, would be the most suitable caretaker for both. It is precisely because of this that Xu Mo took the serious injury of Baron Tannis as the first card to intervene in this world's biggest historical plot.

Originally, Xu Mo only planned to take this opportunity to meet one of Sonia and Garcia, but now Prince Victor, who was embarrassed by the lack of a suitable caretaker, actually made Xu Mo the replacement of Baron Tannis, and let him be responsible for guarding Princess Sonia and the werewolf Garcia. If Xu Mo would miss this kind of opportunity, then he would not be Xu Mo.

"Your Excellency, please rest assured that for the glory of the blood of St. Cisse, I will remain in the tower while Baron Tannis is recuperating from his injuries. Unless there is a warrant signed by you, no living creature will be able to approach the tower except the Keeper. Xu Mo made a vow categorically, resolutely said goodbye to the prince and left, preparing to go back to the room to clean up and live in the tower.

Seeing Xu Mo walking away, Prince Victor suddenly felt a chill in his heart, as if he had made a wrong decision that would make him irreversible in the future. After thinking about it for a while, Prince Victor really couldn't think of anything that he had overlooked, so he had to put aside his thoughts for the time being, and prepared to go to see the seriously injured Baron Tannis first.

Returning to his room, which seemed to have been blown by a twelve-level typhoon, Xu Mo carefully searched for the old werewolf's body. Soon, next to the old werewolf's head, he found the beast bone necklace that the old werewolf had shown him, which was a canine tooth of an unknown beast, large and curved, with a very sharp tip, and a warm feeling in his hand.

After Xu Mo put away the necklace, he picked up the head of the old werewolf, his head had been lifted from its transformation, and it was now the image of a human being. Looking at the old man's angry eyes, Xu Mo said softly:

"Do you like the battle I arranged for you? The little one's parents have a slave surname that is difficult to eradicate, why don't you! Don't you know that even if you escape with the little one, you will still be a lost dog, and you will still not get any respect among the Werewolf Free Army. It's just that he has changed from the watchdog of the blood clan to the watchdog of his own clan, think about how the lame boy was treated by the humans of the same race! ”

"But now it's different, your heroic battle not only gave the little guy freedom, but also gave him the courage to face any hardships in the future. This battle has also given you a new lease of life and made you a truly free werewolf warrior, thank you for the death I gave you, the little one is free, and you are free! ”

As Xu Mo murmured, the old man's angry eyes magically closed, and the hideous expression on his face eased, looking so peaceful and calm in the soft light of the room.

After calling the bloodline maid to dispose of the clutter in the room and the corpse of the old werewolf, Xu Mo began to think for a long time, after his plan made unexpected progress, he had to make limited corrections. First of all, after seriously injuring Tannis, there is no possibility that Sonia and Garcia will still be able to contact them, and of course, the few hole cards in Xu Mo's hand will not be exposed so quickly.

Secondly, after some communication with Prince Victor, Xu Mo's hazy idea began to take shape, if this plan could really be realized, Xu Mo was almost certain that he would be able to get the greatest potential benefit in this world. However, the implementation of this plan is very complicated, and none of the conditions for cooperation in Xu Mo's imagination are missing, after thinking of this, Xu Mo stood up, it was time to start preparing.

On the fourth night after coming to this world, Xu Mo waited for the members of Prince Victor's direct guard in his new room, "Lord Cole, I'm Raz, Prince asked me to take you to the Tower of Dusk, please prepare!" ”

Xu Mo looked at the elite of Victor's direct subordinate troops in front of him, which was different from ordinary blood clan soldiers who wore light chain mail and used the relatively light weight of the Saerson sword. The Blood Clan soldier in front of him was hidden in thick plate armor all over, holding a round steel shield and a broad-bladed broadsword, and he was actually a rare hoplite warrior. It was these heavily armed prince's immediate guards guarding the Tower of Twilight, where Sonia and Garcia were being held.

The two soon reached the Tower of Dusk, located behind the main fort, which was a conical tower with the largest ground floor and less space as they went up. In Raz's introduction, Xu Mo also learned that the underground part of the building is also a cone-shaped, with the largest floor near the ground and the smallest floor at the bottom, which together with the part above the ground form a shuttle-shaped building, and Sonia and Garcia are at both ends of this shuttle.

"My lord, do you want to rest right away, or do you want to meet Princess Sonia or that lowly werewolf slave Garcia?" Raz's tone was very respectful, obviously he had learned that Xu Mo would soon become a descendant of Prince Victor.

Xu Mo smiled slightly and said, "Of course, let's go meet ...... first."
