The north wind was tight, the apes were wailing, and the killing smell blowing from the herdsman's grassland made the Rohan Plain on this side of the Tiaoling River also lonely. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info The dim daylight peeked out lazily from behind the clouds, the grass and trees were withered, and two thin figures walked on the desolate mound. A woman walked vigorously in a silver mink cloak, letting the cold wind blow her resolute face. The person next to him was wearing only a thin gray mage robe, with a rickety figure and a staggering step.

"Fort Horn is just ahead. Through her companion Warlock, Quinn saw Fort Clarion fifteen miles away, the ruined castle that had been abandoned for an unknown number of years.

Vera didn't speak, she felt that every step she had taken was very difficult, this skin had dragged herself too hard, but she couldn't give it up, at least not now, she had to rely on the magic power in her body to remove the names on the list one by one.

Once a military fortress built by the Alliance, it failed to withstand the dragon's attacks and was destroyed in fire and ice, and the signs of the Great War can still be seen in the ruined castle.

"He's the only one in Hornfort?" asked Quinn, curious.

"Well, a recluse. Vera was well aware of her opponent, a creature hidden in the dark, a creature with a strong body and a brittle soul.

Vera and Quinn were getting closer to Fort Clarion, the wall of the main entrance had long since been shattered, and from their field of vision, Fort Clarion looked like a giant monster with its mouth open, waiting for them to enter.

Hualuo quietly flew back to Quinn's shoulder, and Queenn walked into the castle and shouted to the deep and dim castle: "Lord Boend, we are the envoys of the King of Hungary, and we are here with the 'Bone Erosion Soul Chasing Armor', and please show up." Vera took out the "Bone Erosion Soul Chasing Armor" from the ring and showed it to the darkness in front of her.

A few candles were lit in the distance, and Bernde's hoarse and terrifying voice came: "Come here, friends, welcome to Fort Bugrumpet. ”

Dark creatures are afraid of the sun, and these people who live by strange methods do not look like people in the end. Vera thought contemptuously, what is a vampire who lives by sucking blood all day long on a huge castle?

Vera lit up a small ball of light to illuminate the path, littered with rocks and bones, and rats and insects were nowhere to be seen. The two of them walked all the way to the room with the candle at the door, and there was a long stone table in it, and the Duke was sitting in the back watching the two.

Dressed in a black tight-fitting leather suit with a bat belt, his face was pale, his fangs were exposed, and his eyes were dark red, and it seemed that he had not performed a "blood sacrifice" for a while.

Quinn said politely: "The last time Duke Tobernd made a move, this time the Hun King sent a small one to offer the Bone Erosion Soul Chasing Armor, which contained the blood that the Lord wanted. ”

When Bernd heard the word blood, he couldn't wait to walk towards the two, Vera put the Bone Eater Soul Chaser Armor on the table, and the Duke stretched out and touched the armor, Vera launched a curse.

"Slowness Charm. ”

This vampire generally cultivates blood-killing and dark magic, and at the same time relies on physical skills and concealment to deal with enemies. Vera knew this the last time she fought him, so she cursed sluggishness as soon as she struck.

Such a close distance was unavoidable, but he also reacted quickly, stretched out his arms and instantly retreated to the wall, while his body gradually became transparent, and a cloud of blood mist burst out of his mouth, obscuring everyone's vision, but the Slowness Charm had been imprinted on his soul.

Quinn's speed was not slow, and when he took the crossbow before the blood mist exploded, a "Holy Light Arrow" was fired, hitting the Duke in the left shoulder.

"Hesitation, fear, doubt, confusion・・・・・・ light. Vera's spells hit the Duke one after another, and the blood mist that filled her could not hinder her magic at all, and what she felt was the Duke's soul, not the body. Vera's judgment is not wrong, this old monster who has lived for thousands of years has not experienced a vicious battle for too long, but he knows how to find a weak attack, and has forgotten the skills of fighting.

Hua Luo flapped his wings violently, and the strong wind blew away the blood mist that shrouded the room, and the duke, who had almost merged with the wall, was revealed in the corner of the wall again, and Hua Luo flew out with a "brush", taking off one of the duke's eyes. Bernd cried out in pain, and his body fell off the wall, shrinking into a small ball. Quinn stepped up with an arrow, and the Duke realized that the crossbow had already reached his head when he realized that something was wrong.

"Who are you・・・・・・ you?" Although the Duke had lived for 1,800 years, he had only met one Curse Master, and the modus operandi of the man in front of him was too similar to that man's.

"Lord Duke forgot me so quickly, the time of the year should be like yesterday to you, presumably Lord Duke has stayed in this Horn Fort for too long, and his mind has become numb, right?" Vera lowered her hood, and the Duke looked at the old woman in front of her suspiciously.

"You?"

"It's me, Vera Solomon. ”

The Duke let out a miserable laugh: "Okay, okay, everyone says that I am practicing the Strange Sect and Ghost Path, who knows that the Solomon clan will also practice those cursed magics." ”

Vera said lightly: "Give him another arrow." ”

Quinn pulled the trigger, and a second glowing arrow of holy light stabbed the duke's right shoulder, and the duke's body began to tremble as he was struck by the magic of the light system.

"Give it to the Duke. Vera pulled out a small, green vial, and Quinn pressed the duke's chin and poured the liquid into his esophagus.

"You ・・・・・・," Bernd snapped to the reminder that Vera was not only a curse master, but also an alchemist, "what did you give me a drink?"

"Fire ants devour your heart, once every seven hours, if you don't have the blood pill I gave you, you will be very miserable. Vera replied.

Bernd had long known the methods of these alchemists: original secret medicines, once consumed, they would be subject to human control for life.

"What do you want me to do?"

Vera put the Bone Eater Soul Chaser Armor into the ring and smiled, "I want you to do what you love the most: suck up other people's blood." ”

"Oak-Huns?" asked the Duke of Bernd.

"Those four people. ”

The Duke understood that the four men must be referring to the magicians who had besieged Vera with him in the first place.

"And what's in it for me?" Bernd didn't seem to be completely out of his mind, and since Vera had to rely on herself, she still had to make a condition.

"The antidote to the fire ants, and their blood. Vera laughed in her heart, she naturally knew what Bernd was thinking, she just wanted Bernd to think that she needed him as a helper.

Count, it's been too long since you've set foot in the perils of this world.
