Walking from the revolving fireplace into the secret room at the back of the study, Antonio saw a room with maps on all four walls, and a large square table in the center of the room placed a large sand table, which contained not only the deployment of troops from the various towns of Italy, but also the location of the nearby vampire castle.

"Well, Captain, although we didn't find Prince Gurman and the Holy Artifact, our harvest is still quite rich!" Rogge stood behind the sand table and looked at Antonio and smiled: "With this sand table, the vampire forces in Itali will have nothing to hide." ”

"This is really exciting news," Antonio said with a gratifying nod as he walked over to the sandbox and looked down at it, "In this way, the Itali army and the Apocalypse will be able to use the map drawn by the sandbox to sweep through the vampire stronghold and drive them out of Itali's territory once and for all." ”

"That's right, but this is just the beginning," Rog said with a wave of greeting to Tali as she walked in from behind Antonio, stepping around the table, "Vampires won't be chased away so easily, and as long as Prince Gurman lives, our troubles won't be over." ”

"Do you know where he's going?" asked Antonio, looking up inquiringly at Rogge.

"I don't know, when we came here, the old bat had already escaped without a trace. Rog shrugged his shoulders and walked behind Antonio, reached out and took one of Tali's hands and kissed her on the back of the hand, then smiled, "It seems that he expected that he would no longer be able to hold this lonely fortress." ”

"And what are we going to do?" Tali asked, worried, looking at Rogge, "Where are we going to find him?"

"Don't worry, you two come over and take a look at this. Rog walked unhurriedly to the side of the wall, where there was a light brown wooden wall in the middle of the two maps, and Antonio and Tali noticed the map fragments that had been nailed to the corners of the empty wall.

"It looks like a torn map. Antonio looked back around the room and said to Rogge, "Is this the only map that has been torn off?"

"That's right, as you can see, Captain, this is the only one. Rogge nodded with a smile: "I have checked the fragments of the four corners, and the tear is new, indicating that this map was hastily torn off by Prince Gurman when he fled, why did he escape with this map?"

"Says there's important information on this map," Tali guessed.

"That's right, even more important than what was revealed on the sandbox, so much so that he didn't have time to destroy the sandbox before he had to take the map with him. Antonio nodded slightly in agreement.

"But the map has been taken away, is it of any use to us?" asked Tully, looking blankly at the vacant walls.

"Of course, my priestess, it will tell us where Prince Gurman is going. Rogge smiled confidently.

Antonio and Tali looked at him in amazement, only to see him walk to the wall, point to the map fragments in the four corners of the wall, and say, "On the map fragments in the upper left and upper right corners, I found the cities of Aisen and Ulland, respectively, located on the borders of the Duchy of Deiz and the Duchy of Erus, respectively. ”

Speaking of this, he looked back at the two of them with a smile, Antonio groaned slightly, and suddenly woke up: "I understand, you mean that this map that was torn off is a map of the Duchy of Itali!"

"That's right, my captain, this is a map of Itali. Rogge patted the vacated wall with his hand and said.

"But even then, we can't know what's on the map?" asked Tully, still suspicious.

"Don't worry, dear priestess," said Rogge, turning and walking a few steps against the wall, pointing to another map not far away, "I found that on the four walls of this room there was more than one map of Itali, all of which had different markings, but only this one was torn off and taken away. ”

He carefully tore off a map of Itali from the wall, brought it to Antonio and Tali, and said, "Please help me get it." The two took the map from his hand and looked at him curiously, not knowing what he wanted to do.

Seeing Rogge's left hand show a winged light blade, his right hand took off his gloves and slashed the tip of the light blade on his fingers, blood suddenly overflowed from the wound, Antonio and Tali were taken aback, and just didn't know why he was doing this, they saw Rogge turn around and smear the blood on his fingers on the wall.

He drew a vertical line on the wall that resembled an arrow, then drew a circle in the place of the arrow, then he turned around and took the map from the two of them, and attached it to the wall in line with the position of the four stumps on the wall, and the blood on the wall soaked the map, leaving a red mark on the map.

"Alright, two, we've found Prince Gurman's whereabouts. Rogge looked back to the two of them with one hand on the map.

Antonio and Tali were surprised to see that the origin of the arrow logo was Prince Gurmain's Fort near the city of Italy, and the circled destination was Milan, the third largest city in Italy, north of Italy.

"They went to Milan?" Antonio asked, looking at Rogge suspiciously, "How can you be sure of the accuracy of this?"

"I know you're still wondering what I relied on to mark this location. Rogge took the map down and handed it to the two, turned back and tore off another map from the wall, wiped the blood from the wall, and then pointed to the wall and said to them, "See? ”

Curious, Antonio and Tali leaned closer to the wall and saw a looming scratch on the wall, with an arrow at the end of the scratch and a circle drawn around it.

The two suddenly realized, only to see Rogge put on his gloves and smiled: "You can check the other maps, there are scratches on the wall below the marked location, which shows that Prince Gurman is a very heavy person, I have checked the notes in his study, and each page has traces left by the previous page when he wrote." ”

"Are there any important vampire castles around Milan City?" Antonio turned to the sandbox, and Rog followed him alongside Tali, saying as he went, "I've seen that there aren't any vampire castles around Milan City, and that's the weirdest thing." ”

Antonio came to the sand table and compared the radius of Milan City, and indeed did not find any vampire castle markings, he looked down at the Itali map marked with blood in his hand and frowned: "What does Prince Gurman want to do?

"I don't think he has that much power," Rogge walked to the side of the sand table and pointed to the sand table and said, "At present, there are not many vampire castles in Itali, and a few parts are concentrated on the border of Italy. ”

"That's weird. Antonio frowned suspiciously.

"Anyway, let's go back to Itali City first, have the sand table transported back to the Marquis of Thunder, and let him and my children take care of the rest, and we'll go to Milan to see what happens." Rog patted Antonio on the shoulder, turned and strode out of the chamber.

Antonio ordered the soldiers to transport the sand table back to Itali City, and Rogge summoned the undead artillery to destroy Prince Gurman's castle, and when they returned to the royal palace in Itali City, they met Catherine and George and others who had been waiting for a long time at the gate of the palace.

"I'm sorry we didn't kill Elizabeth and she escaped. Catherine said apologetically to Rogge.

"It's my fault, I should have shot decisively so she wouldn't have escaped. George took the initiative to step forward and protect Catherine behind him, and said reproachfully.

Rogge looked at the expression on his face, and then looked at Catherine who was protected by him, and showed a faint smile, he patted George's shoulder, and whispered in his ear, "You are very decisive when you protect the flowers!"

When George heard him say this, he knew that he had seen through his thoughts, and couldn't help but blush and bow his head, Rogge walked past Catherine with a quiet smile, touched her head and said, "Don't take it personally, I didn't plan for you to kill Elizabeth here." ”

As he spoke, he walked past the three young men behind Catherine and George, and said to them, "I don't know how many times I have fought Elizabeth myself, and there have been many times when she almost died at my hands, but in the end she escaped death, which shows that she is powerful, and not as fragile as ordinary vampires." ”

The five young men all looked at him intently, and heard him say seriously: "So, it is reasonable that you can't kill her, if you kill her, then wouldn't it be very embarrassing for me as a teacher?"

"You have a face, only a beard!" said the little furball, leaning on Rogge's hat.

Several young men, Anthony and Tarie were so amused that they couldn't help laughing, Rogge shrugged his eyebrows, reached out and grabbed Lilith from his hat and put it on Catherine's head and said, "You two are allied again, aren't you? I don't bother with you two little assers, I'm going to the palace to see the queen!"

The group was led to the council hall by the head of the palace, where Queen Irene and Marquis of Thunder Martin were already waiting, and Antonio stepped forward to explain the results of the operation to the queen, and Queen Irene was greatly relieved to learn that Prince Gurman's Fort had been destroyed.

Later, Antonio showed Queen Irene and Marquis of Thunder the sand table captured from the secret room, and Marquis of Thunder Martin said that he would order someone to draw a map of the sand table and give it to the army commanders of the towns, and send soldiers to destroy these vampire strongholds.

At this moment, Tali, who was standing next to Antonio, suddenly noticed that Rogge was missing, and she looked around to find Rogge standing in a corner of the hall, talking to Alfred, the head of the palace, in a low voice.

Tali curiously walked up to Rogge, saw that he unfolded the map of Itali marked with blood in his hand, looked at Alfred and asked, "You just said that you are from Milan, do you know that there is an ancient castle called Raphael near the city of Milan?"

"Raphaelburg?" Alfred's face became extremely solemn, he cautiously looked at Rogge and Tali, who was standing behind him with a curious expression, and whispered mysteriously, "Of course I know, everyone in Milan knows about Raphaelburg, and the cursed legend buried in it." ”
