Chapter 857: The Grand Duke
The interior of the old Gothic building is retro-style, and on the left and right sides of the gate are two lifelike metal knight statues, and the broadswords in the hands of the two knights rising from the prancing horse seem to be swung down at any moment and slashed at the person.
When Zhou Xiaoya and Heizi followed David into the door of the building, they couldn't help but take a few more looks, and the whole person had a very uncomfortable feeling.
After entering the door, there was a thick carpet under his feet, gray in color, which also looked like it was some years old, but strangely the carpet was spotless.
Could it be that there are still people cleaning this place every day? What a job that can only be done by a person with thick nerves? What a hell of a job!
Looking around, the resentful soul floating on the ground suddenly came out of somewhere, and Zhou Xiaoya, who had already been numb by the strange silence along the way, muttered quietly, and made up his mind that if it was okay, he would not be able to come to this kind of ghost place again next time.
If you stay for a long time, I'm afraid I'll have nightmares when I sleep at night!
Just thinking in his heart, the three of them had already walked into the house along the thick carpet, Zhou Xiaoya subconsciously looked up, and the scene in his eyes frightened his heart, and all the hairs on his body stood upside down at this moment.
The decoration and decoration in the villa hall are also quaint, whether it is the frescoes or the furnishings and sculptures along the way, all of them reveal a strong European medieval style, but it seems a little empty.
In the center of the huge hall, although it is not empty, it is not a sofa or something like that, but a ...... A huge coffin!
That's right, a coffin!
A coffin about the size of a bed!
At this moment, the steps under the feet of Zhou Xiaoya and the three of them did not stop, and the ancient coffin that was placed here very abruptly was slowly opening the top cover, as if something was sleeping inside, knowing that the ancient castle was coming to the guests, and wanted to get up to welcome the guests.
Zhou Xiaoya and Heizi turned their heads to look at each other, their faces were pale, and they only felt a cold air going all the way up from the tail vertebrae, and instantly secreted a layer of fine white sweat on their backs.
Both of them are warriors and monks, and all kinds of bizarre things have not been seen before, the "Rashomon Ghost King" Ibaraki Boy, the "Refining Corpse" of the Yin Corpse Sect, and the "Ancestral Corpse" of the Han family, and even the "Drought Demon Corpse" Zombie Old Monster gets along with them very well, it stands to reason that there should be no ghosts and gods to be afraid of.
But in fact, at this moment, the two of them were really faintly stunned.
Some zombie vampires jumped out of other places, they really shouldn't be the same thing, but now that they have entered the gate of the ancient castle, the weird environment and eerie atmosphere along the way are completely like making a thriller and adventure ghost movie, it is really too exciting, and the mind is hinted, and it is difficult not to be affected!
"Friends from afar, welcome to Fort William......"
As he was muttering, an old man in a tuxedo suddenly sat up in the coffin with the lid open, shriveled and thin, looking like a dead branch, but his face was pale, and his lips were painted red, as if he had just gnawed a dead baby in the coffin, which made people feel creepy at a glance!
"Truly...... I'm old, I'm a little sleepy, and I woke up a little late today......"
The thin and strange old man slowly crawled out of the coffin, and his trembling appearance could not be seen as a 'half-step realm' blood prince? It was no different from a bad old man who was about to die.
The strange thing is that after finally climbing out of the coffin, the huge coffin lid that looked like a thick door panel, and it was estimated that there must be at least one or two hundred kilograms of coffin cover, was slowly closed again with a flick of his hand, and the cover was tight.
At this moment, a breath unique to the powerhouse of the "Half-Step Dao Realm" quietly diffused from the thin body of the old man with blood lips, the yin wind was miserable, and the powerful aura seemed to stir up the dull air in the main hall of the villa.
Zhou Xiaoya's eyes shrank slightly, and the originally somewhat terrifying emotion disappeared inexplicably the moment he faced the square.
If the old saying is true, the real horror is actually hidden in people's own hearts! The unknown is terrifying, and if you really see the real thing, you will not be so shocked.
In a trance, David's guy had moved a few seats from nowhere, and they were loose, and he didn't seem to know if he could withstand people dropping his butts on them.
Zhou Xiaoya and Heizi glanced at each other, not pretentious, and saw that Prince William had already sat down on one of the seats by himself, and also sat down.
Prince William smiled slightly, flipped his hands, stretched out his thin hands like bird's claws like a trick, and handed over two glasses of crimson wine, and the two hesitated slightly, but finally took it.
"Usually there are no guests coming, it's a little shabby, Zhou Xiaoyou doesn't want to be weird, but this wine is a good wine, it has been treasured for many years, and outside, it is rare to drink ......"
Gently shaking the crimson wine in the wine glass in his hand, Prince William actually spoke fluent Chinese in his mouth, and as he spoke, he squinted his eyes and looked Zhou Xiaoya up and down, looking very interested.
It wasn't until Zhou Xiaoya was stared at by him that he was really uncomfortable, and his brows were slightly wrinkled, that Prince William's gaze quietly moved away and fell on David, who didn't dare to sit next to him: "Now the situation of the 'Blood Clan Castle', you have already introduced it to Zhou Xiaoyou, right?"
"It's all said!"
David stood with his hands tied and replied respectfully, not daring to say more.
"That's good......"
Nodding, Prince William seemed to be satisfied, a faint smile appeared on his face, but his eyes turned to Zhou Xiaoya's body again: "Zhou Xiaoyou, since you understand the situation, I don't know what plans are below?"
"Damn! I think that's what I'm asking you, right?"
As soon as this matter was mentioned, the evil fire that Zhou Xiaoya was holding in his heart faintly bubbled up again, and replied unceremoniously:
"Don't think I can't see it, whether it's the old man Morakot or your 'Blood Emperor', holding Mary in your hands, don't you just want to force me to come here from Huaxia?
"Hehe, I really want to see what kind of trick Douglas, the father used his daughter to stumble and force me here, what kind of trick is ......"
As soon as these words came out, David, who was originally standing with his hands tied, was so frightened that he trembled all over, turned his head and looked at Zhou Xiaoya with a shocked face. I don't know if it was the truth revealed in Zhou Xiaoya's words that shocked him, or if he was surprised by this kid's unkind tone and attitude towards Prince William at the moment.
"Truly...... Xiaoyou is really amazing, Mary's girl didn't disappoint me......"
Laughing again, Prince William didn't seem to be very angry about Zhou Xiaoya's attitude, and while laughing, he looked him up and down again:
"Listen to Mary...... You've been chosen by her for life? and...... After Mary bestowed on you the first embrace, you were still above her, and you were directly promoted to the rank of marquis? Tsk, this kind of thing has never been heard of in the history of the Bloodline! Even when I first heard it, I was astonished. ”
"In this way, Xiaoyou is now a Heaven-level Blood Clan Marquis, right? Hehe, such a young Marquis, even in the 'Blood Clan Castle', is rare!"
As he spoke, the old guy fell into the eyes that Zhou Xiaoya glanced at, and the meaning of the wipe appreciation became more and more intense.
"I'm sorry, I'm ...... Not a Marquis!"
Shaking his head expressionlessly, Zhou Xiaoya threw out a sentence lightly!
"Not a Marquis?"
For this answer, Prince William felt a little surprised, and his face was stunned for a moment, but he quickly reacted and said with relief: "I see, it seems that it is really as the 'Blood Emperor' guessed, this matter, Mary's girl was excited for a while, and it was an exaggeration!"
Shaking his head, Prince William seemed to remember something, his eyes fell on Zhou Xiaoya's body again, and after a little hesitation, he continued:
"By the way, what kind of title is your kid now? activate the blood energy in your body, exude the breath, and let me feel it...... With you being so young now, as long as you can reach the level of an earl, it is a rare thing, and I believe that the Blood Emperor will carefully consider your relationship with Mary's girl......"
"Well, in that case...... Then I'd be respectful and obey!"
Hearing the words "Earl's Realm" coming out of Prince William's mouth, Zhou Xiaoya and Heizi turned their heads to look at each other, and the expressions on their faces became strange, but in the end, Zhou Xiaoya nodded.
As he spoke, the blood energy of the blood clan in the "Corpse Spirit Bead" in the Sea of Consciousness in his brain quietly surged, and in an instant, a unique momentum of a powerhouse of the Innate Peak Realm suddenly diffused from his body.
The innate peak, which is equivalent to the strength of the realm of the Grand Duke of the Blood Clan, is only one step away from the realm of the Prince of the Blood Clan, compared to the Earl of the Ground Rank mentioned by Prince William, spanning the two realms of the Heavenly Rank Marquis and the Innate Duke, and it is only one step away from the realm of the Prince of the Blood Clan.
In such a situation, Prince William was stunned in an instant!
"Greatly...... Archduke? Am I mistaken? How is this possible?"
After staring at his eyes for a long time, Prince William stammered such a sentence, and the fingers of his right hand that stretched out to point at Zhou Xiaoya trembled uncontrollably: "You, you...... You kid is playing me? This is already a grand duke, and he actually said that he didn't reach the heavenly rank?"
"Your Excellency, you seem to have misunderstood, right?"
Looking at Prince William's shocked discoloration, Zhou Xiaoya's original sullen breath in his heart finally gave vent a little, nodded with a light smile, and spread his hands:
"I just said that I am not a Marquis...... It's not a marquis, although it may be an earl, but it may also be a duke, or even a grand duke, you always think about it yourself, it doesn't seem to blame me...... "R1148
