Cade and Tomizawa glanced at each other with meaningful glances. And Oliveira, who was immersed in excitement and joy, did not notice the subtle movements of the two men in the slightest. Of course, even if he did, he wouldn't be able to understand the meaning.

"You just said that you want to help me organize the material on the history of Sylvania? Actually, this matter is mainly in terms of money, because it is necessary to hire a scribe. If you only rely on one or two people to copy it, it will be too time-consuming. ”

Cade made a hint to his companion, who immediately took a stand.

"If there's a problem with the money, leave it to the contemptible people. Tomizawa stood up and tugged at a rope beside him, and then a servant poked his head out of the living room. Tomizawa made a gesture to the servant. A short time later, the servant entered the room with a tray. In the middle of the tray is a large and heavy money bag.

"Contemptible people have always been extremely enthusiastic about academic research. Tomizawa looked impassioned.

"Do you remember that bard?" said Dr. Oliveira, who was in a good mood, and Cade immediately struck while the iron was hot. "Speaking of which, I don't think I've ever heard a song about vampires. ”

"Ah, I remember. Dr. Oliveira picked up the purse. "Actually, I can occasionally see him in the tavern now. His name was Neil, and everyone called him 'Goldfinger Neil'. ”

"Doctor, something important suddenly occurred to me. Cade took a deep breath. "In fact, it is difficult to find qualified scribes in this part of Sylvania. ”

"Ah...... That's right!" Dr. Oliveira stopped smoking and began to think about it.

"Since you haven't found a place to live, Doctor, I have a suggestion. Cade said. "In the north of Sylvania, to the west of the city of Mir, there is a small city called 'Gaynor'. There are several large printing workshops, many skilled scribes, and the climate is good. If you're looking for a place to organize your information, it's a great place to go. Although it is a bit far from here, the advantage is that the transportation is convenient, you can hire a car to get there without being too tired. ”

......

The two of them returned to the chamber.

"Looks like that," Tomizawa said with some sarcasm. "Your worst doubts have been answered. I really didn't expect the answer to be around. Maybe even the gods are protecting us. ”

Cade's face was blue and red, full of a tyrannical viciousness. "Those guys...... Unexpectedly...... "But his impulse did not last long, and after a short while, he regained his initial composure.

"Hmph...... It seems that we should use the most direct method to get the answer from those two people. Cade said.

"Prudence is your greatest boast. This time, it was Tomizawa who said it in a sarcastic tone. "What about our venerable doctor, he might get the word out of us......" Tomizawa made a slashing gesture.

"No, in case the Doctor is found to be suddenly dead...... Then they might be on the fence!" Cade replied. "If he simply leaves, it won't cause alarm. We can't afford to start. Anyway, our doctor doesn't know anything, so let him finish his research in Gaynor. There's so much to do on our side...... Too much...... In fact, we had to prepare for the worst. ”

Tomizawa nodded. "It really should be. But if the most unfortunate result ...... The worst of all, what are you going to do?"

Cade was silent for a moment, then a wicked smile appeared on his lips.

"Waste utilization. He replied.

After Cade left, Tomizawa was now the only one left in the room. He sat down in his chair with a bored expression, staring at the ceiling for a long time before he let out a sigh. Then he tugged on a rope bell beside him. His servant appeared.

"Bring me the box from last time. He commanded in a loud voice. The servant immediately complied, and after a short while, a red box was sent to the secret room and placed in front of Tomizawa.

Inside the box is a complex device, an extremely ingenious device made of some kind of metal and glass. About nine out of ten people in this world don't understand what this thing is. But on the side of the device is a piece of paper label that reads "Vampire Cage" clearly. At the same time, there is a small instruction manual in the box, which explains the function of this thing.

Activating this in a closed room can incapacitate all creatures of the dark arts, including vampires, and even necromancers who practice the dark arts. But ordinary humans are not affected in any way.

The church made this with the intention of capturing a vampire, no doubt. But until the end of the Battle of Kalean, this thing did not come in handy. Vampires are just too stubborn and have terrifying powers. It's too difficult to take down a vampire on the battlefield without killing him. So this delicate but impractical toy was finally sealed and no longer noticed, and now it is in the hands of Tomizawa.

"It's a pity, it's a pity, I took so much effort to get your hands on you. Tomizawa touched the instrument and sighed to himself. "I was expecting to capture Baron Pinod in one fell swoop and get Cade by the way...... Still, maybe you'll never get a chance to come in handy again. ”

Despite what he said, he carefully placed the instrument in a secret compartment in the table in the back room.

"Cade, it looks like this thing can only be used against you!" Tomizawa said to himself as he carefully placed the device. "If you can't find a vampire, you're of no use to me, and you're an easy threat to me. ”

At this time, Cade, who had just left the lord's mansion, did not go far. After making sure there were no stalkers, he quickly made a detour to a remote place where someone was waiting for him......

"How's it going?" he whispered to a man in front of him, a short, smiling young man. The young man wore a uniform that was common to the servants of the nobility.

"All the best, my lord. The young man replied. "I think it's pretty much there. ”

"Baron Pinod will be pleased. Cade replied. "Don't feel guilty about what you've done, it's definitely a good thing for this world world that this bastard dies early. You can quit your job and go back. Now you can give me back the stone. ”

The young man pulled out a necklace from his bosom, and the pendant of the necklace was a stone that shone with a dark green light. If Ashruphat was present, he would immediately recognize the necklace as almost identical to the one Cade had given him.

"Hurry back, don't be caught that you came out to meet me secretly. Cade admonished. The young man nodded, then turned and left.

"You have a few more months to live, six months at most. Cade stroked the necklace pendant in his arms with his hand, muttering to himself in a voice that he could only hear. "Your intelligence is unreliable, but I'll miss you, Tomizawa. ”

Then he took out a box from his body, took off the necklace again, and carefully placed it in the box.

"Now, let me meet Kasek......" he hid his box, jumped on a horse that had been on standby, and urged the horse away.

Just when the two good friends, who got along very well and knew each other well, were planning their next move, in a confined space, Ashrufat was staring ahead.

In front of him was an upright transparent sink filled with a pale green liquid.

Scarlet was immersed in liquid at the moment. Although it is said that the human respiratory organs cannot breathe in liquid, everything in front of him is a bit strange, because although Scarlet is not conscious, he is obviously breathing in this liquid. The girl's perfect and naked body is enough to eclipse even the sculptor's finest work. At this moment, the body was suspended in a pale green liquid, its chest was slightly heaving, and its pale red hair fluttered with the fluctuation of the liquid in the sink.

"In this way, master, everything is ready. In Ashrufat's mind, Carrie said in an excited tone. "Scarlet can be a key point of contact between you and Pinod. With her, you will be able to keep track of what is happening on Pinod's side in the future and exert influence at any time. ”

"Is that so?" said Ashruphat in a low voice. It's unclear whether he's talking to himself or answering Carrie.

"You're not...... Are you turning her into a vampire?" Ashruphat remembered the beginning of his memory.

"Absolutely not. Carrie replied. "Master, in fact, to do that kind of genetic level of modification, the existing equipment is insufficient. It should be said that a core control chip is missing. ”

Ashrufat's eyes saw an illusion suspended in the air, something that resembled an artificial intelligence. Ashrufat suddenly realized that it was similar to the one he had taken out of Wendini's head.

"The two are the same thing, but the internal composition is different, so they can't be used together. Carrie replied, a little regret in his voice. "In fact, this sink has the same appearance, but it can be used for a variety of purposes depending on the control chip. But all the sinks here are consistent, and they can only be used for healing and biochemical modification. You can only do biochemical modifications. ”

"Is there a difference between genetic modification and biochemical modification?"

"If it's genetically modified, it's the ability to transform one creature into another creature of a completely different race, just like you, the master, were once human, but now you're a vampire. In the case of biochemical modification, it is only to give the individual creature a special amount of power. For example, the plan I arranged for Scarlet is probably similar to ...... The last time you killed that Rohr looks. ”

"Rohr?" Ashrufat remembered the tall, thin man. It must be admitted that among the enemies he has encountered who fights alone, Rohr is one of the more difficult ones. If Rohr had met him earlier, the outcome might have been unpredictable.

"Well, I've greatly improved Scarlet's physical fitness, reaction speed, and body control, as well as various combat nerve reflexes. These are the only things that can be formed after countless trainings. Note, however, that in order for her to be able to manipulate her body freely, her brain must also be modified to a certain extent, which may cause her mental state to be unstable. ”

"Mental instability?"

"Yes, you should have felt that battle with Rohr. ”

Indeed, that man always felt a feeling of madness, which was not normal. Scarlet will also become like this?

"This is not necessarily. But I'm going to give her control over her mind so that you can control her in any situation......"

"It doesn't need to be like this. Ashrufat replied. "Don't do this kind of thing. ”
