Chapter 15 The City of Birmingham
On the Thorn Mountain, in the dense woods, a beautiful girl lay quietly on the ground.
From the wound in her chest, and the large blood stains on the ground, we could tell that she was injured, and that she was seriously injured. The inner seed to die for.
Ahem, ahem, ahemΒ·Β·Β·Β·Β·
Isabella lay in the woods, coughing up blood foaming at her mouth, looking at the dim sky with an indifferent expression. She thought that she was already going to die anyway, and yelling was too detrimental to the dignity of the nobles. At this moment, she did not feel the slightest fear of the passage of her life.
And he sang a hymn:
"My heart ached, and the sleepiness and numbness pierced my senses, as if I had drunk poisonous birds, and as if I had just swallowed opium, so I sank towards the Lechuan River. Oh, if there is a sip of wine! the mellow drink that has been refrigerated in the ground for many years, I will drink it and leave the earth, and go to the dark forest to disappear: far away, far away, to forget the fatigue, the fever, the anxiety, the world that makes people sit and lament, where youth is pale, emaciated, and dies."
Probably the reason for the return of light, Isabella's recitation was loud and clear, piercing a long distance through the woods.
In the woods, a carriage followed the sound of poetry.
The carriage stopped, and a man with black hair and black eyes stepped out of the carriage, walked slowly in front of Anne, looked at her quietly for a while, and then said softly to her, "Girl, it looks like you are going to die." But I can give you a second life, so are you willing to make a contract with me to become a magical girl?"
Isabella blinked, looking at the man in front of her with some inexplicability. "I don't understand what you mean, but if you can save me, of course I don't want to die." β
When the man heard this, a strange smile appeared on his face, and he said, "As you wish." Then he bared his fangs and bit down on the girl's neck.
Two hours later, there was one more person in the carriage, Eun...... To be precise, there is one more Bloodline who has just been converted.
In the carriage, Isabella was listening to Dylan's enlightenment with her chin on her chin and quickly accepted the fact that she had become a blood clan.
"A real warrior, dare to face the bleak life, dare to face the dripping blood. β
Dylan said to Isabella with a sincere face, "You should learn to be strong, your life as a blood clan has just begun." Believe me, your future will be dark. β
Hearing Dylan's words, which were obviously not used to comfort her, Isabella's forehead burst out.
"By the way, as a baron, or my Miss Isabella's direct elder, can't you speak well?Where is the elegance and nobility of the blood clan? β
Dylan didn't know how Isabella was complaining at the moment, he was immersed in the joy of hugging her for the first time.
It seems that there is really one more blood relative. It cost a lot of blood, but it's still worth it.
Just as Dylan was about to continue to enlighten Isabella, the voice of the coachman Jacob came: "Young Master Dylan, we are in the city of Bloomington ahead." β
Dylan lifted the curtain of the carriage and looked out, about 800 meters away, a bustling city. It's already seven o'clock in the evening, and there is still a lot of people and cars outside the city, which shows that Birmingham's title as the business capital is indeed well deserved.
The carriage drove into the city gates and headed straight for a hotel in the city.
Closing the door, Dylan turned to Isabella and said, "How many people have seen about your killing?" β
"There was only one person. Isabella said with certainty: "Jared, that idiot, saw the killer draw his knife and pushed me directly at the killer, and then ran faster than a dog, without even looking back at me." Only the killer pierced my lungs and chased after me. Now that Jared is nowhere to be found, there is no way to prove it. β
Dylan analyzed with a straight face: "Your guards didn't come back to you, which means that they were all dealt with by the killers." In other words, there is only one killer who knows that you are injured, and as long as you kill him, no one will know about your conversion to the Bloodline. β
"Actually, it doesn't matter if others know. Isabella craned her slender neck and said with a proud expression: "Even if it is the Holy See, do you dare to blatantly do something to a nobleman in the business alliance? I have the blood of the royal family in my veins, and if they dare to do it to me, my grandmother will not let them go." β
Look at this face, this is the confidence of the second generation of officials in this era, with a large number of high-ranking state officials and royal family members as backers, of course, they are not afraid of the Holy See coming to find trouble.
Dylan pursed his lips and said, "If your identity can be hidden for a while, try to hide it for a while." It's hard to say whether you will be assassinated in the future, but it is better for someone to use a sword against you than to take a bottle of holy water and sprinkle it on your face. β
Isabella pouted, and said with an old reluctant expression: "Whoever dares to assassinate me, this time the killer must not know my identity, otherwise he would not dare to use a knife on me." I don't know who dared to assassinate the family of the vice president of the Chamber of Commerce Alliance while my father was not at home. When my dad comes back, I'll have to let him find out about it. β
"Alright, you just listen to me. After a while, you put on new clothes and go back to the City Lord's Mansion immediately, you may have gone crazy in your family. Also, you're just a toddler and can't even get in the sun, so be careful to hide yourself. Dylan instructed.
Isabella pursed her lips, took out a necklace from her clothes, and said to Dylan, "I have this shadow necklace, something that ordinary dark creatures need to avoid, and it is completely ineffective for me. β
Looking at her smug appearance, Dylan also had to be defeated. You have to admit that wealth confers considerable privileges on people everywhere. This is the special truth.
Maria took a new set of clothes, handed them to Isabella with a cold expression, and then stood behind Dylan like a lifeless shadow.
Isabella changed her clothes and left the hotel.
Not to mention Dylan and Maria in the hotel, let's look at Isabella first.
The City Lord's Mansion still maintained a calm scene on the surface, but there was already chaos inside. The only daughter of the Lord of the City, our Royal Highness the Princess of Birmingham, has disappeared, and this kind of thing can happen.
At this moment, Morton, the housekeeper of the City Lord's Mansion, was so worried that even his hair turned white.
He was originally in his 40s and in the prime of life, but now he looks like he is ten years older, and in just one day, he has become much older.
He didn't dare to imagine what the consequences would be if the Earl of Fairman knew about it. Miss Isabella, as the sole heir to the Fairman family, would go crazy if something really happened.
"Oh my God, may all the gods and devils of the world bless me, and my Miss Isabella shall not have any accidents. Otherwise, how can I be worthy of the trust that Lord Fairman has placed in me. β
Butler Morton screamed in a loud voice, and the sad expression on his face made people cry when they looked at it.
As a family of stewards who have served the Fairman family for generations, the Morton family has always been the right-hand man of their master, and they have never made a mistake in housework, politics, and business. From the ancestor Sonny Morton, to now Nick Morton has passed 4 generations.
There has been no mistake in four generations, and if his generation is going to tarnish the reputation of the Morton family? If so, then I might as well Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·
Butler!
As soon as Morton looked up, he saw Isabella standing alive in front of him, intact. Morton squeezed his eyes with his hand, and then burst into tears.
Isabella looked at Morton Butler, who was over half a hundred years old, crying like a child in front of her, completely confused.
