Chapter 730: Interview with a Vampire at Night
When Ge Wei passed through the spatial rift and entered the land of redemption from the land of death, the sun was shining outside, but it was a clear dusk.
Ge Wei came through the spatial rift near the Black Rock Mountain. This spatial rift leads straight to the Northern Continent, the Land of Redemption, closer to Caesar. At the opening of the passage, it is not the territory of the Caesar Empire, but the border fortress of the Holy Bauhinia Empire, Riverrun.
Now that you're here, let's go in and have a look. Continue north past Riverrun before entering Caesar's territory.
As a strategic point on the border with enemy countries, Rushing City gathered almost half of the Bauhinia Empire's defensive forces. All kinds of fortification equipment and military supplies are piled up in this fortress-level castle.
Every resident here has received military training, from adults to children, from the elderly to women, all of them can use martial arts, use knives and guns, and hold shields. Even children's games here are real knives and guns, adults only discipline children to fight, and it is impossible for children who do not shed blood to survive in this place.
Riverrun City has been built for at least 200 years. Due to the constant conflict with the Caesar Empire, the word war has been imprinted in the blood of everyone in this castle.
When Ge Wei entered the city, no one noticed him.
He swaggered into the city gate, and no one from the two large guards at the city gate saw him swaggering in. When everyone sees him, they will subconsciously turn their heads, as if they subconsciously ignore his existence.
"The body of the elements, it turns out that there is still this kind of wonderful use. Merge with the surrounding elements, regardless of each other. As long as there is a magic element, it is equivalent to the background color makes me 'invisible', but it's a pity. It can only be used against ordinary people. If you are stronger, you should find fluctuations in mana. Then you will notice me. ”
Ge Dazhi figured out how this works. It's very similar to consciousness hypnosis. The Elemental Consciousness makes those who meet him think that he is part of the natural environment. Deliberately ignore his existence. And as long as the mental power is strong enough, he will be noticed, and the "invisibility" will be invalid.
Ge Wei walked in front of everyone like this, the soldiers defending the city talked and laughed with each other, or stuck to the wall to rest, no one "looked" at him, and even if they did, their brains would filter out Ge Wei's existence.
"Although this is not Caesar, you can see the influence of Caesar's empire on this world. The castle was built. It was to fight against the Caesar Empire. The shadow of Caesar's empire looms over the world all the time......"
This is Ge Wei's perception along the way. It made him feel like a place. Leoric, the emperor of Caesar's Empire, resembles a man.
"War, Conquest, Domination......" Ge Wei stood in the middle of the crowded streets of Riverrun, everyone who walked up to him would unconsciously step out of the way, and then pass by him casually. Even those who are coming towards him will turn unconsciously. It's like Ge Wei is a normal pillar on the street, so he naturally gets out of the way. Ge Wei looked at the sky, the night was getting thicker, "This is like the place of death. The ambition of an emperor is swelled by external forces, and it won't take long. Leorik is the next Angmar the Great. And the place of redemption is another place of death. ”
Gowe believes in the situation of the Land of Redemption. It must have attracted the attention of the Celestial Realm a long time ago.
With the living example of the Land of the Dead, the angels of the High Heaven may not be willing to let the Land of Redemption become another realm of the dead.
So. The Most High Heaven sent Seraphim down to investigate the matter.
Instead of sending the Nether down to purify the world, as in the Land of the Dead, until the whole world was destroyed by Angmar the Great.
"Since the birdman is in charge of this, I don't have to worry about it. It doesn't matter if he's an angel or a demon, as long as this place is in the same plane as the Land of Death, sooner or later this place will be under my control. It's better to get wings early and help the ghost transform back into a Seraph...... Hey, that's not right......"
A question occurred to him. If he kills the serapus who came down, who will care about the land of redemption?
After doing it for a long time, it's quite contradictory.
He didn't bother to take care of the demons, and he had to kill the angels who came down, and in the end, he had to deal with all the mess if he wanted to do both.
Ge Wei shook his head helplessly: "Alas, brother is a lord or a foot man." Why do I have to do this kind of work......
The figure moved, and when he reappeared, Ge Wei had already entered the sky. Clouds flowed beside him, and below him was Riverrun, which had shrunk into small black dots. The Eclipse Sword enveloped him and turned into a cyan rainbow, shooting towards the direction of the Caesar Empire in the north.
......
When the sky was full of stars, Ge Wei walked into a tavern. By this time he had regained his human appearance, wearing a wide cloak, and if it weren't for his short black hair, he would have looked like an ordinary night traveler.
The tavern's hostess, a charming woman, enthusiastically brought him a hot drink made with black beans and bitter pine seeds, which tasted like coffee and was popular in the Caesar Empire. The haze of war also hardly discouraged the Caesar Didu's pursuit of hot drinks.
Yes, that's right, this is exactly the capital of Caesar's Empire.
Ge Wei swaggered into the semi-enclosed castle as if he had entered Riverrun. After blending into the crowd, he dissolved the elemental body and walked down the street in the form of a human being. He didn't want to attract the attention of the city defense army. Tonight he was going to meet Emperor Caesar without interference.
The world's most unusual instrument for recording time is a special shellfish that can only be found in coastal habitation. The shells have fixed patterns, and the mollusks in the shells stick their tongues out, and from morning to noon to night, all of these mollusks point their tongues in the same direction.
In this way, people have divided the day into 12 hours according to the scale on the shell. This is how the time is recorded. Therefore, almost every household will raise a few shellfish. The barkeeper had this water tank on the bar counter, and from the angle of the tongue sticking out of the shell inside, Ge Wei judged that it was 10 o'clock in the evening.
Seeing that it was still early, Ge Wei called the proprietress and asked what was delicious.
Ever since he became an undead creature, he hadn't had a good taste of it. Now I can finally restore my human body. Of course, treat your taste buds well.
The proprietress introduced several special snacks in the tavern with a smile, and Ge Wei ordered a plate of lamb chops and a plate of fish balls. It is said that they are the favorite flavors of the Caesar people.
The lamb chops and fish balls were quickly served, and Ge Wei suddenly moved his index finger when he saw the shiny food. I asked for a hot drink similar to coffee, and I feasted on the hot drink.
This tavern is crowded with people at night, and the ale here is the more famous royal wine (self-proclaimed), and Ge Wei is not interested in it after tasting it, but the men who come to the tavern drink each other with large wooden cups like wooden barrels.
As the time approached midnight, the number of people gradually increased, and this was the time when the tavern was at its busiest. It could only be seen in the capital of a powerful country, and Gowey remembered that most people were asleep at both Gordon and Goliath.
Gowei claimed to be a Goliath. Coming from afar to do business. So when he finished the meal and asked the proprietress for a room key and rented a room, no one doubted his identity, but secretly laughed at the country dumplings for not knowing how to live at night. In the eyes of the Caesar Imperial People, except for the Imperial Capital people, all other places are dirt buns.
Ge Wei went upstairs with a smile. Open the door, find the wooden bed, and fall asleep.
The noise of the tavern downstairs is still self-reliant. And Ge Wei's consciousness has been put into the market in place, counting the income of today's mercenary contract.
Time goes on. After midnight, in the wee hours of the morning, the people in the tavern dispersed. The sound gradually became quieter, and finally it fell completely silent. Ge Wei heard someone coming upstairs. Stepping on the wooden stairs makes a slight noise. It was the footsteps of the proprietress . Footsteps stopped at the door of his room, after a moment. and faded away.
Ge Wei blinked on the bed, his eyes glowing with an eerie golden glow in the night. Xindao didn't have time to do anything with this charming boss lady tonight. What's more, she's a little older for him......
Suddenly, a breeze blew, and Ge Wei disappeared on the bed.
......
Leorick's bedchamber. This is the most heavily guarded place in the entire Julius Caesar. Not one of them.
The city guards stationed here are the elite of the city guards. Everyone is exceptionally well equipped, trained and treated the best. They were responsible for guarding the safety of the greatest emperor in the world.
In addition to these city guards, there was also a separate courtyard in each of the four corners of the emperor's dormitory. There are four powerful magicians living in it, each of whom is a famous magician in the continent. Their identity is Caesar's court mage. They also had the duty to protect the emperor.
It is no exaggeration to say that even if the enemy country invades the city, there are no tens of thousands of troops to fill it, don't want to capture this emperor's dormitory. Even flies flying in couldn't escape the magic detection of the four magisters.
At this moment, the emperor was still in the council chamber, sitting on his throne. The midnight military meeting had just ended, and the ministers had just withdrawn. The Emperor sat alone in the empty hall, his hands on his laps and his head propped up, bowing his head in deep thought.
Leorik was a handsome man, his handsomeness can be traced back to the first generation of Caesar's royal lineage, it is said that the former Caesar Founding Emperor was a heroic man, and later combined with the most beautiful princess on the continent to inherit this excellent bloodline.
Compared to his ancestors, Leorik's skin was slightly pale. His sapphire eyes are the same as those of the Founding Emperor in the painting. His slightly melancholy eyes were more like the queen, the human princess who was said to have one-sixth elven blood.
With such an appearance and his extremely noble status, it is conceivable how much Leorik was respected in the court, especially by the ladies. And Leorik did not refuse women, and almost half of the maids in the entire court were his crotch guests.
At this moment, as he pondered, the door of the council chamber was slowly pushed open. A graceful figure in a long skirt slowly walked in.
Leorick's gaze lifted, drawn to the figure. He quickly forgot what he was thinking, and his body gradually sat up straight.
In was a beautiful woman, neatly dressed, tall, with a pair of snow-white straightness half-exposed on her chest, which vividly interpreted the beauty and desire of the court costumes.
The woman walked straight up to Leorik and sat straight on his lap, her slender arms around the emperor's neck.
Leorik sniffed deeply at the warm fragrance on the woman's chest, leaned his head up, and sucked greedily. In the hall, the coquettish moans and gasps of women gradually sounded.
Leorik pressed the woman down on the throne, rudely tore open her gorgeous court dress, and kissed her lips all the way down her snow-white body to her neck, and suddenly stopped.
The woman was panting in intoxication with her eyes closed, not realizing that Leorick's jewel-blue eyes had become blood-red at this time.
Leorick's handsome face gradually revealed a trace of hideousness uncontrollably, and his gaze was fixed on the beating arteries on the woman's slender neck.
Suddenly, Leorik opened his mouth, and in the mouth there was a row of sharp teeth, not human teeth, biting down on the woman's neck.
The woman's eyes immediately widened, and she screamed miserably: "Ahhh
No matter how much she struggled, she was crushed by Leoric. Blood stained her slender neck, her snow-white breasts, and Leoric's hideous face.
I don't know how long it was, but the woman lay motionless on the throne. Piercing blood spilled all over the ground. The emperor of the Caesar Empire, Leoric, was like a dog, lying on the ground greedily sucking the blood that was still warm.
Bang bang bang.
Suddenly, three clappings of applause suddenly sounded in the quiet hall. Leoric, who was lying on his stomach, looked up like a frightened beast and raised his head suddenly: "Who!?
In the shadows, Ge Wei slowly walked out and looked at the bloodthirsty emperor with playful eyes: "Unexpectedly, it turns out that the dignified Emperor Caesar is a vampire. ”
Leorik looked murderous, stared at Ge Wei fiercely, and said word by word: "Who are you, how did you get in!" (to be continued......)
