-27- The smile froze
Charlotte was genuinely curious about the issue. Her family knew about her family's affairs, and the Thorn Rose was a temporary symbol she copied when she hung it on the cross, and the original form was a pattern on the furniture, not at all the holy emblem of the true ancestor of blood.
Since the crossing, Charlotte has also investigated what the Holy Emblem of the Blood True Ancestor used to be, but there has been no result, and it seems that it has been deliberately erased by the Blood Clan.
After Albrecht entered the Night Castle, he did not immediately connect the Thorn Rose with him
"Blood True Ancestor" is connected, but she is regarded as one
"God of the Night". So...... How did the other party treat the Thorn Rose?
The symbol of the "True Ancestor of Blood"? Listening to Charlotte's inquiry, Albrecht's face was worried.
Charlotte heard a lot of things in his heart
"Why does His Majesty the True Ancestor ask that?"
"Am I answering incorrectly?"
"Will she be angry and swallow me?" and so on.
"Really...... Your Majesty, please forgive me for my sins, I have been asleep for too long, and my memory is a little foggy, and I didn't recognize your emblem for a while, so I made many mistakes......"
"I am really excited and happy to see you again, and it is the greatest honor of my life to have the opportunity to show you my loyalty again!"
"Praise you, Great True Ancestor, with your return, the bloodlines can finally be united again!" Albrecht praised with fervor and reverence.
Charlotte: ...... Falsehood. It's all a lie. Charlotte watched expressionlessly as this demon-blooded duke lied in front of her, and her heart did not fluctuate, and she even wanted to laugh a little.
Albrecht's fanatical praise was fake, except that he had really forgotten what the emblem of the True Ancestor of Blood looked like.
The real thoughts in this guy's heart can be summed up in one sentence, and that is
"The Hellhorn Demon can bend and stretch, save his life first." But...... Forgot the emblem of the True Ancestor of Blood?
Charlotte looked at Albrecht condescendingly and fell into deep thought. Mortals may forget, but transcendents have strong memories.
Not to mention that Albrecht is still a legendary-level Duke of Blood, a Hellhorn Demon, how could an existence with such strength be forgotten for no reason?
Not to mention, it is still the Holy Emblem of the Blood True Ancestor, which is a very important event for the blood descendants! But Albrecht was the only one who told the truth.
He had really forgotten before. It wasn't until he recognized the Night Castle that his memories resurfaced, but in his memory, the emblem of the True Ancestor of Blood seemed to be the appearance of a thorn rose.
This is...... Cognitive modification? Charlotte's heart moved. The use of the Thorn Rose as a holy emblem is certified by the Blood Sacred Scriptures and chosen by Charlotte herself.
Could it be ...... Can the Blood Tome also change the cognition of other existences, forcibly binding the identity of the Thorn Rose to the identity of the True Ancestor of Blood?
Charlotte looked inexplicable, and there was a little guess in her heart. But at the same time, she had another question. Speaking of which, the True Ancestor of Blood...... Shouldn't it be Lilith?
Seeing Charlotte on the throne fall silent, Albrecht became even more nervous: "Really...... Your Majesty, You...... Do you have any more questions? Charlotte gathered her thoughts and looked at the other party.
Looking at the rather restrained Dark Apostle, she chuckled and said, "Albrecht, you look ...... Seems to be afraid of me? Albrecht's face was suddenly filled with a flattering smile: "Look at what you say, you are the great and omnipotent ancestor, and in front of you, you should be respectful and respectful!" Charlotte was noncommittal, and with a gentle wave of her hand, the crimson mist in front of the throne was dispersed.
The fog that cut off the view dissipated, and Albrecht saw her appearance clearly. Charlotte is still an adult.
Albrecht's expression flickered for a while, and the long-ago memory became clearer, and the figure in his impression also completely merged with the existence in front of him.
True Ancestor! She is truly the True Ancestor of the Return! Albrecht didn't dare to take another look, and quickly lowered his head, his heart trembling.
It seems that it may really be a modification of memory cognition...... Feeling what Albrecht was thinking, Charlotte had a further affirmation.
She quietly withdrew her gaze and looked at the other party condescendingly, her voice as lazy as ever: "Albrecht, allegiance is not just casual talk, do you think...... Should I trust your loyalty? Albrecht hurriedly saluted, and said sincerely and passionately: "Your Ancestor, Albrecht's respect for you comes from the bottom of my heart!" Everything about Albrecht is also in your hands, you only need one thought, Albrecht can die, what reason and courage does Albrecht have to dare to deceive you? Charlotte was noncommittal, but smiled tentatively, "Oh? Is it? As a descendant of Abaddon, did you swear to her in the same way? ”
"Look at what you said, Abaddon is Abaddon, you are you, you are the co-master of all bloods, he is nothing but the fire demon you have given power, a filthy betrayer, how can he compare to you! Albrecht never really pledged allegiance to Abaddon, Albrecht was just a demon who had no choice but to take refuge with her, and Albrecht was always waiting for your return! Listening to Albrecht's words, Charlotte was a little surprised.
This dreaded dark apostle turned his face really fast, obviously following Abaddon for thousands of years, but he didn't hesitate to scold the other party.
It is worthy of being a natural anti-bone demon, even with the power of the bloodline, the root has not changed. However, to Charlotte's surprise, not all of what the other party said was false.
In contrast to the truth in her perception, Albrecht ...... It was true that there had never been a true allegiance to the Bloodfiend, Grand Duke Abaddon.
Charlotte was a bit unbelieving. She quietly used the Crimson Star Sea to probe the belief in the depths of the other party's mind, and then was surprised to find that the other party was really not a believer in the Blood Demon Grand Duke!
This girl is actually an unbeliever! Outrageous, an unbeliever not only joined the Blood Demon Order, but also became the Third Dark Apostle!
"Huh? You weren't a believer in Abaddon? Charlotte didn't hide her surprise. Albrecht bowed and explained, "Back to the True Ancestor, Albrecht joined the Blood Demon Legion as a demon two thousand years ago, and his strength was not given by Abaddon, but the first legion leader of the Blood Demon Order, Baroff......
"Albrecht had never been in Abaddon's sight before, and it was only after she fell asleep that she was promoted to the dark apostle of the Blood Demon Order." Charlotte didn't know what to say.
What the other party said turned out to be the truth. But who is Barlov? Was there a myth of a previous bloodline?
Charlotte didn't ask. She looked at the other and asked another question: "In that case, what are you planning in Lutesia?" Albrecht let out a long sigh and looked embarrassed: "Your Majesty, the Great True Ancestor, you don't know, Abaddon is cruel and tyrannical, although he has fallen into a deep sleep, he still has a certain control over the Order. ”
"If I don't carry out the Order's mission to fight against the Holy Court, I will be severely punished!"
"Your Majesty, please forgive me for offending in the past, I really didn't know that the God of the Night was actually you! I can't help joining the Blood Demon Order! This is a lie.
The truth is that Albrecht had a premonition that myths would return one after another, and that the world would change dramatically, and he wanted to seize the last chance to use the power of the Blood Demon Order to lay eggs.
Doing something practical to avoid Abaddon being suspicious is just scratching the surface. His plan in Rutsia is to infiltrate the Crescent nobles against the Divine Court, and the real purpose is actually to turn all the nobles into his forbidden blood servants and secretly develop his own power.
As for joining the Blood Demon Order, it's even more. Albrecht's state is actually a bit like the ruthless protagonist in the Xianxia who has been alone from beginning to end in Charlotte's previous life, but he can bend and stretch.
And the Blood Demon Sect is like the sect he joined. The protagonist in that kind of cool article has never had feelings for the sect he joined, but it is just a stepping stone and tool for his own promotion, and he really needs to throw it, and when he needs to run away, he throws it when he says it, and he runs when he says it.
Albrecht had ambitions in his heart. Although he has always been steady, it does not mean that he is satisfied with the status quo.
He wanted to take advantage of the changes in the world to go one step further and ascend to mythology. Albrecht's capital came from a statue of a god.
It was the faceless god he found in the underground temple of Lutesia, possessing the power of the divine power of blood.
Faceless Idol ...... Charlotte's heart moved slightly, and she made waves. No wonder the idol in the underground temple is a fake, it turns out that the real thing is here in Albrecht!
Charlotte looked at the other without moving. She didn't expose the other party. No matter how cowardly, if they are really in a hurry, they will also fight hard.
In her reading heart, the Faceless Statue was the deepest hole card in Albrecht's heart, and it was also the bottom line.
For this reason, he is willing to keep going, even if it is to be a cow or a horse, just to find a further opportunity and one day turn over.
Charlotte certainly couldn't have turned over a boneless boy who could rebel at any moment. Even if she already has the intention of harvesting the other party into a tool man.
Now that she knew that there was a similar idol in the other party's hand, she naturally had to take it back. Of course, how to take it back is a technical problem.
Thinking of this, Charlotte chuckled, and her languid voice became serious: "Albrecht, I can give you a chance to be loyal and no longer pursue your past, nor pursue your offense." Albrecht's eyes lit up, and his expression suddenly became excited.
"But ......" Charlotte's words changed, and her expression became indifferent: "You wantonly create forbidden blood servants and destroy the stability of the bloodline level, you must be punished!" Albrecht's heart tightened, and he asked with a worried expression, "Really...... Your Majesty, how do you plan to punish him? Charlotte glanced at him and said meaningfully, "Since you like to create forbidden blood servants so much, then...... Come and taste what it's like to be a servant of blood. Albrecht's eyes widened: "You...... You want me to be your blood servant?! ”
"What, don't want to?" Charlotte's gaze turned cold. Feeling the suppression of the blood in the dark, Albrecht's scalp suddenly tingled.
His brain was racing, and he said, "Really...... Your Majesty, you also said that the Forbidden Blood Servant will destroy the stability of the bloodline level......" Charlotte chuckled, and her voice became cold: "Albrecht, tell the truth. ”
"I don't really care about your allegiance, but I hate betrayal, and I don't trust you, even if it's ...... you say."
"You're funny, I'd like to hear a few more words from you, but that doesn't mean I'm patient."
"You have too many demonic natures, more like a demon than a bloodline, if you don't want to be a blood servant, then forget it, I need enough bloodline power more than a duke full of lies." After speaking, Charlotte gently opened the Blood Sacred Codex, and at the same time mobilized [True Ancestor Liberation], making it look like she was planning to use her hands to seize the power of the bloodline.
Feeling the momentum of the great change in her body, Albrecht's expression changed, and he hurriedly said loudly: "Yes!" Albrecht willing! ”
"It is a supreme honor to be your blood servant, Your Great True Ancestor, and Albrecht is willing to accept your punishment!" Looking at Albrecht, who was sweating profusely and instantly confessed again, Charlotte smiled.
She withdrew the blood divine power, and the light in her hand flashed, condensing a light cluster symbolizing the blood servant's contract: "In this case, then sign the contract." With that, she gave her a gentle push, and the ball of light flew towards Albrecht.
Albrecht's expression changed. He looked at the blood-red ball of light, and struggled inwardly, but finally gritted his teeth and put it into his soul in despair.
That's it...... The Hell Horn Demon can bend and stretch, three hundred years east of the river, three hundred years west of the river! As long as you keep a small life, as long as you keep that hole card, as long as you give him enough time and a certain opportunity...... He'll always find a way to get out.
Now, let's bow our heads first! Albrecht gave up resistance and chose to surrender. However, deep down, I made a good note of today's events.
He is steady, but he also holds grudges, and those dark apostles in history who have died or been exiled or sealed under the siege of the Holy Court, all those who have offended him have more or less contributed to his troubles.
The light flashed, and Albrecht felt a little more shackled in his soul. Suppressing the helplessness and hatred in his heart, he took a deep breath, put on a respectful and obedient expression, and said flatteringly: "Your Majesty the Great Ancestor, now...... You should trust Albrecht, right? Charlotte bowed slightly, looking satisfied: "Yes, it's obedient, it's a good dog." Albrecht: ...... Looking at Albrecht, who was smiling a little reluctantly, Charlotte was very happy.
She stretched out her hand, looked at the other party, and playfully said, "Okay, now...... You can hand over the hidden idol. Hearing this, Albrecht's smile suddenly froze on his face.
