Out of the city of stone weirs, Jasmine had a little smile on her face, and even began to hum a little song softly. Lucifer's tense face began to stretch, accompanying her left and right.

"Let Jasmine go back, she's really scared!" Resa whispered to Gabriel.

"Didn't you ever doubt her, and why do you care so much about her now?" said Gabriel.

"Isn't it okay for me to admit that I was wrong?" said Renesa, glaring, "Everyone makes mistakes...... And you've made so many more mistakes than mine!"

"I've only been drunk a few times!" said Gabriel, "as far as I know, men are usually like that!"

"Are you a man?" said Ressa.

"Of course, if you don't believe me, I can let you verify it on the spot!" said Gabriel, smirking wickedly.

"you!" Resa gave him a blank look.

The two rode up to Lucifer and Jasmine. They were greeted by bright smiles from both of them.

"That's right," Gabriel said, "Resa thinks Jasmine is frightened, and she proposes to let Jasmine go back to Erathia first." ”

"Thank you, Renesa!" Lucifer said as he looked at Ressa gratefully.

Looks like Lucifer agreed. So, what is your decision, Jasmine?"

"I ...... I don't know where to go!" Jasmine whispered, "The only person I know besides you is Princess Catherine...... But she also has the undead!"

"Why don't you go to Standwick Castle, Deputy Captain Eldred knows you, and all she has to face is demons!" Resa suggested.

"That's a good idea!" said Gabriel and Lucifer.

"Thank you...... But what am I supposed to say to her, that I have escaped?" said Jasmine, embarrassed, "they will look down on my ...... for that."

She silently looked at the three friends who cared about her, and whispered, "Besides, I am reluctant to leave you......"

"So do we!"

The boys and girls fell silent.

"Well, didn't the doctor tell us to go to the prairie to hunt badgers, so Jasmine should stay on the prairie and come to see her when we miss her!" Resa cried suddenly.

"Oh, Renesas, why are you so smart!" Gabriel applauded!

Renesas looked smug. Lucifer looked at Jasmine with an inquiring eye.

Jasmine nodded: "Okay, then I'll go to the grassland to fight badgers!"

"I'm not worried about you alone......" Lucifer whispered.

"I lived in the wilderness before you knew me. Jasmine said, "I don't feel alone, because I know you're not far from me, and ...... I can still feel your concern!"

"Alright then!" Lucifer nodded.

Thinking that it was going to be a short goodbye, everyone was a little reluctant in their hearts.

The further south you go, the less snow there is on the ground. In the afternoon, they came to the grassland. Yellow, white, and green weeds poke their heads out of the thin snow, and even some unknown wildflowers swaying in the wind.

Are they messengers of spring, or are they aware of the impending steps of spring?

Ressa and Jasmine had already jumped off their horses and ran through the grass to gather wildflowers.

"Isn't it just a few wild flowers that make them happy?" said Gabriel, "If it weren't for the task, I would have collected a lot of them and stuffed their whole house!"

"Thanks, but I guess you can collect it for Ressa alone, Jasmine doesn't need you to do it for you!" Lucifer said as he looked at Gabriel warily.

Nearly 2,000 horsemen also jumped off their horses, allowing them to play freely and nibble on the weeds.

"Look at that! there's a badger!"

Several knights jumped on their horses and began to give chase. A man drew his bow and arrows and pinned the poor little creature to the grass.

The knight rolled over and dismounted, and picked up the badger. The guy's head was a little like a dog, with black and white stripes, and his body looked like a fat piglet.

Renesa and Jasmine also ran over.

"This guy stinks!" the girls immediately covered their noses.

"That place in the elk stinks a little too!" laughed the knights, "but it's strange that something that smells so bad can make a particularly nice perfume!"

"Where is it?" Jasmine's eyes widened.

The knights unkindly lifted the badger's tail. Ressa kind of understood, blushing and punching the silly Jasmine.

But Jasmine still hasn't understood why Renesa hit her.

"You have to be careful, these guys are fierce!" the knight ripped the badger's lips open with his bow, revealing Sensen's teeth.

"Didn't these guys sleep in their caves in the winter?

"Maybe so many of us woke it up!"

"Tell me, please, how do I catch them?" asked Jasmine.

"I'll tell you!" a knight who grew up on the prairie searched the meadow with Jasmine, "Look here, there's some loose soil here. The knight picked up the oval-shaped dried dung on the side of the loose soil and said, "It must be around here." ”

Sure enough, they found several caves nearby.

"They're going to have a lot of exits, and if you want to catch them, you'd better block the rest of the holes!"

The knight touched the surrounding area of the cave with his hand and said, "The four walls of this cave are very smooth, and it should be the main cave in and out of it." You dig along the cave and you'll find them sooner or later!"

"Looks like the beautiful Miss Jasmine is going to be a whackle for a while!" Renesa teased.

"you!" Jasmine laughed and punched Renesa.

"If you don't want to be a whack, you can smoke it too!" the knight laughed, "and it won't destroy the vegetation of the steppe!"

"That might be a good idea!" Lucifer nodded.

"Miss Jasmine, I still have to ask your subordinates to be merciful!" said the knight seriously: "Badgers are good at preying on rats, you can't kill all the badgers in one place, you have to leave some on the grassland, otherwise the grassland will be infested with rats, and this beautiful grassland will become a desert!"

"Thank you for your advice, I'll remember!" Jasmine said gratefully.

The rallying horn on the steppe had been sounded, and the cavalry warriors had gathered in formation.

"Jasmine......" Ressa took Jasmine's hand and couldn't bear to let go. Lucifer also wanted to hold Jasmine's hand, but there was no more to do it!

"I'll be fine...... I'll be waiting for you in this place when you come back!"

Renesa let go of Jasmine's hand and ran back to the team without looking back.

Lucifer finally seized the opportunity to grab Jasmine's hand.

"Lucifer ......"

"Hmmm......"

"The city of stone weirs cannot be defended...... It will become the next frontier city!" Jasmine looked at Lucifer's face seriously: "Promise me that when the castle falls, you must escape alive...... And them!"

"But ......"

"It's nothing! It's Commander Leo's responsibility to defend the castle, it's not yours, you're just reinforcements! Please, promise me?"

"Well, I promise you!"

"There you go...... They're waiting for you!" Jasmine was finally relieved! she pulled her little hand from Lucifer's hand.

"You must wait for me, we will come to see you after we have purchased the materials!" Lucifer said reluctantly.

"Well, I'll wait......" Jasmine smiled, though there were tears in her eyes.

She stood on a high place and watched the cavalry brigade march far away.

Who knows what she's thinking? The wind on the prairie ruffled her dress, clinging to her moving ketone body.

The wind made her feel a chill. She hugged her shoulders tightly and ran across the prairie.

She wanted to get away from the road and find a quiet and secluded place to rest. For some reason, she now wants to be alone from the crowd. When a girl is in the wilderness, the best way to protect her is to make it impossible for others to find her.

At sunset, she felt like she had run far enough!

It's hard to see trees on the grassland, so it seems that I have to build a stone house to protect myself from the cold.

She found a small mound sheltered from the wind and began to build a stone house out of scattered stones, with the top untied with dry grass and covered with some dead grass as a roof.

She also picks up a lot of dried manure from herbivores and relies on them for warmth at night. As for the materials for starting fires, dead grass can be found everywhere.

By the time the stars sparsely appeared, Jasmine had already lit a fire.

She plucked the heart and liver out of the badger's belly, threaded it on a slightly thicker thorn strip, and roasted it over the campfire.

Does the dung of bison and wild horses smell bad when they are used to roast meat? But she can't care so much anymore!

The blood of a dog badger sticks to his hands. She looked at her hands in a daze, and the desire to suck blood was surging in her heart, and the urge was getting stronger and stronger!

I can't...... I don't want to be a vampire!!

Mother, I hate you! Why did you save me in the first place? Why didn't you just let me die?!

Though I'm alive now, I'd rather die myself! Selling my soul to the undead, I've been running away from the crowd, I've been living in guilt, I've been tormented by pain and nightmares!

How do I deal with Lucifer, how do I deal with my friends, and if they know I'm a horrible vampire, he'...... And what about them......

Oh my God, I can't even think about it!

I don't dare approach the undead...... Because I know they're calling, and their dark and evil power will make me lose it!

Then I was like the original Chosen One, now Thoth, the Terrible Judge of Death!

I've tried to suck as little human blood as I can, even if that makes me feel weak...... Only when I can't hold back and am about to die, will I choose the target of the attack!

Save me, O gods of heaven, from my sinful soul! I just want to be an ordinary girl, marry the man I like, and live like a little grass, not a vampire who seems strong and weak at heart!

God, do you hear my prayers?

The food flowed fat in the campfire, squeaked and dripped into the fire, and then began to burn.

There was some slight movement around the quiet. The flames of the campfire were getting weaker and weaker, and Jasmine felt the darkness coming.

"Please, spare me!" Jasmine threw down the thorn strip in her hand and began to hide her face and weep bitterly.

"You've been flying alone for so long, it's time for you to come home!" said an ethereal shadow in the darkness.

"I'm not going to do anything for you, never!" Jasmine wiped away her tears and stood up bravely.

"Do you think you'll be able to live back and be yourself again?" said the dark shadow, "According to the pre-determined contract, I let you live, and you must serve me as my servant in my time of need!"

"That's not a pact I made with you, it's my mother! she's traded her life!" Jasmine said angrily.

"But that's not enough!" the shadow shook his head.

"Please take my life, so that I don't owe you anything more......"

"Alright!" Shadow threw a pitch-black dagger, "Slit your throat and give me back your power!"

Jasmine shuddered and picked up the dagger. She shuddered, "Will it hurt?"

"Of course! you will experience the pain of those whose blood you have drained! And I will tell you that even if you die, you will become my undead warrior!"

"You...... You're a demon!"

"Looks like you know who I am!" Shadow smiled, baring a mouth full of sharp teeth, "I swear allegiance to Bellerion, the god of death, and you, the banshee of the night, Jasmine, must owe allegiance to me, the great vampire king Drokul!"

The dagger in Jasmine's hand fell to the ground.

"My child, you can't go back!" said Drokul gently, "if they knew that you were a vampire and had killed so many people, they would have come after you mercilessly, even the handsome and charming Lucifer! Tsk, I don't know how to describe the pain!"

"Don't say it!" Jasmine covered her ears tightly.

"Do one thing for me, and I'll let you continue to maintain your current dual identity!"

"You say, I'll consider taking a look at ......," Jasmine shuddered.

"Follow them to the city of Stone Weir, and bite as many of the city's inhabitants as possible before the war starts, so that they all become zombies!"

"I don't!" Jasmine shook her head nervously.

"Then you just wait for your sweetheart to kill you, and I will reveal your true colors!" The dark shadow had turned and prepared to leave.

"Wait......"

"I knew you would keep me!" The Black Shadow smiled, "You are my secret weapon, don't worry, I won't let you reveal your identity!" The Black Shadow suddenly changed his tone and said sharply, "But don't play any tricks on me! I will also come to the castle before that day comes! If you dare to betray me, you should know what will happen to you!"
