Anna really did not expect this guy to go to sleep just like that.
The blood red coffin was translucent.
She could see that the guy inside had really closed his eyes and was no longer moving.
Ignoring him, Anna looked at the battlefield over the castle.
After becoming a vampire, she could clearly feel the changes in her body.
One of them was that the blood flow in her body was usually slow and cold.
However, this cold blood contained some kind of power that she could wield.
For example, the castle that was 50 miles away, she could see the bricks and tiles on it clearly now.
Below the castle, everyone was wearing silver-white armor and white robes with red crosses painted on them.
“Is that a knight? The true body of the knights,” Anna muttered to herself.
When her father had asked the church for help, she had investigated and found out some relevant information.
Only a knight was qualified to wear a robe with a red cross on it.
With a series of angry roars, countless silver spears in the hands of the knights burst out with silver light.
A blood red barrier appeared outside the fortress, blocking the impact of the silver light.
However, it was obvious that the vampires could not hold on any longer.
Every impact caused by the the silver light would cause the bricks and stones on the fortress to slide down.
At this moment, the fortress no longer looked as noble as before. It was filled with potholes as if it had been gnawed on.
If this continued, the fortress would be completely devoured by the silver light.
Behind the charging knights, a huge two-headed griffin was staring at the blood red barrier.
It seemed to be waiting for the moment the barrier was broken before it spread its wings and charged towards the battlefield.
On top of the griffin, a figure clad in golden armor was resting. His eyes were closed.
It was the commander of the Holy Knights who was in charge of this crusade, Prik Myers.
He was also the one who ordered Anna’s parents and family to be killed.
Anna clenched her fists and bit her lips. She wanted to rush over and take revenge.
However, she could not do it because Mu En had said that she was no match for him at this time.
If she went, she would be throwing her life away. It was no different from suicide. Therefore, Mu En forbade her from approaching the battlefield.
…
In the castle…
Except for a few people who left in time at the beginning, most of the people who attended the banquet were left behind.
“Curses. How did these guys get here?” Some people gritted their teeth, but they could not hide the panic in their hearts.
After all, in the legend, the third generation vampires were chased by the legendary twelve knights and hid in this dark land. Then, they founded the blood clan.
This was later known as the thirteen clans of the blood clan.
These guys who came now were definitely not as good as the twelve knights from the legends.
However, the problem was that these people in the castle were not the thirteen ancestors who had founded the blood clan.
Moreover, the group of people under them also carried equipment that specifically countered the blood clan.
Originally, in the territory of the blood clan, the sky was covered with dark clouds at all times.
Even during the day, the sunlight could not penetrate the thick dark clouds.
This was also why they chose this place as the territory of the blood breeds.
However, at this moment, behind the knights, beside the two-headed griffin, stood a huge golden disc.
The golden disc actually dispelled the dark clouds above the castle, directly exposing the castle to the sunlight.
As a result, they could only hide in the castle. The last one who rushed out had not even gotten close to the other party,
He was directly turned into ashes under the sunlight.
“Hold on, wait a little longer. When night comes, we’ll let these little brats know how powerful we are.”
“That’s right. A bunch of brats who haven’t even grown their hair yet actually dared to directly charge into the hinterland of our blood clan. They don’t even know that they’re in trouble.”
“Speaking of which, don’t you guys think it’s strange? Why is it that this group of brats just drove straight in without anyone reporting it?” Someone asked in puzzlement.
“You’ll have to ask Count Arnia, who is recuperating over there. After all, this is Count Arnia’s residence,” someone sneered.
“What do you mean?” Arnia stood up with difficulty. There was a bloody wound on his abdomen that was so deep that one could see his bones.
The blood around the wound seemed to have undergone some sort of chemical reaction. It was sizzling.
“What do you mean? You invited us here, but we only noticed it when the Holy Knights of the church arrived at our doorstep.”
“I don’t know. You saw it too. I was in a tough battle myself.”
“Who knows what kind of conflict happened between you and your son? And no one cares about what happened between you and your son.”
“Maybe there’s something wrong with your family’s secret technique, and your son, Artiz, has lost his mind.”
“That’s right. Maybe this is a show that the two of you deliberately put on for us in order to get rid of the suspicion.”
The group of people looked at Arnia with an unfriendly expression. Due to the fact that they were facing a foreign enemy, they still needed Arnia’s combat strength.
Moreover, even if Arnia was injured now, his combat strength could not be underestimated.
Otherwise, many people would have directly attacked him.
However, the words of these people reminded Arnia that he had never understood why Artiz would suddenly change his temperament and increase his strength greatly.
However, at this moment, looking at his wound, two different types of blood were colliding fiercely like fire and water.
This was also the reason why his wound had not healed up until now.
After this reminder, Arnia remembered that the fresh blood in this wound was somewhat similar to the blood corpse in his own house.
Then he thought of the treasure vault that had been stolen.
Could it be that someone wanted to break into the treasure vault and was finally discovered by Artiz?
However, Artiz was no match for him and had no choice but to use the blood corpse in the end. After that, the bloody corpse had backfired?
If Mu En knew what he was thinking at this moment, he would have to sigh and say that the old fox was indeed cunning.
He had actually guessed correctly, but the order was wrong.
“It seems that the bloody corpse has absorbed all the blood in the sea of blood. Otherwise, it would not be so strong.” Artiz closed his eyes and revealed a rare look of exhaustion.
Since even Artiz was no match for the bloody corpse, the others who were cultivating in the sea of blood were even less likely to be spared.
As for the person who robbed his treasure house, he was either killed by the bloody corpse, or he had completely escaped.
Arnia racked his brain and never thought that the bloody corpse would be controlled by someone.
“Count Arnia, you haven’t answered our question. Why didn’t you receive any news from the church’s knights when they came to the bottom of your castle?”
“This is your territory.” The few people who surrounded him looked like they were trying to force him into a corner.
“Come on, his territory? Hmph, he’s just taking advantage of the sudden death of the previous duke and the fact that his only son has yet to grow up to fight for his territory. He doesn’t care what happens to his territory.”
Some people said this disdainfully. Basically, no one would believe that Arnia would collude with the church. Even if he was willing, the church would not allow it.
The reason these people said that was because they wanted an explanation and also some benefits.
Arnia naturally knew what these people were thinking. The territory he occupied was the largest, and the resources in his hands were much more abundant than theirs.
“I would like to give you some compensation, but as you can see, my treasure vault has already been plundered by others. There is nothing left for you to give.”
“Hmph! You have occupied the most fertile territory, that of the previous duke. Moreover, I remember that the previous duke had always respected you. Even after becoming a duke, he still treated you as an elder. He even gave you a lot of things to take good care of his only son.”
“Hmph, the inheritance of the previous duke, coupled with everything you have plundered over the years… You are telling me that it has been completely plundered? How can anyone believe such nonsense?”
“And if the previous duke knew that the person he entrusted to take care of his only son not only didn’t take good care of him, but also seized the territory that originally belonged to his child, I wonder how he would feel.”
The surrounding people looked at each other when they heard this. They did not expect there to be such a secret news, and then they thought of the young duke who was nominally in charge of this territory.
They originally thought that the previous duke’s incident had happened suddenly and that he didn’t leave behind any measures, which resulted in his only son being robbed of everything except the title of a duke.
Even the original duke’s mansion had already been occupied by someone else.
They had not expected that the previous duke had already made arrangements. However, he had entrusted the wrong person and met an ingrate.
When they thought about the current situation of the young duke, they could not help but look down on Arnia even more.
“I heard that he only has one old butler left to accompany him.”
“Sigh, that old butler won’t be able to live for long. When their master and servant were chased out of the duke’s mansion, that old butler was injured by someone in order to protect his young master. I’ve heard that he has not recovered even after more than ten years.”
“When I came to attend the ancestor worship ceremony, I met that young duke on the way. Alas, he was sitting in a shabby carriage. I heard that he had been traveling for more than a month.”
“He was too weak. That old servant was seriously injured. He could only choose to sit in a carriage, and he had no money.”
“I heard that they are still living in a shabby house.”
