Lord Victor's castle is more like a small town than a castle. Compared with the small town where Barena lives, the gap between thatched house and villa is the same.
The entire castle was built on three sides surrounded by mountains, and the only gap was surrounded by a thick wall made of stone more than ten meters high, making the entire castle as airtight as an iron barrel.
When the group arrived near the castle at the end of the season, it was just after noon, but Barron asked everyone to stop.
Barron, who thought the end of the season would be confused by this, explained to the end of the season: "Victor made a rule that his castle will only let us in at night!".
"Well! It doesn't matter, just wait, there's no rush!" Ji Mo smiled nonchalantly.
You can only go in at night because the other party can't see the sun at all. He must be a creature that will die if exposed to light! Ji Mo chuckled secretly.
"What do you think of Victor, Barron?" At the end of the season, he was suddenly curious about what these nobles who spent a lot of money in paying tribute to Victor every year thought about.
"Victor?" Barron's face was a little complicated. After pondering for a moment, he slowly said: "He is mysterious and powerful, and his soldiers are equally powerful. Only they can deal with werewolves, but...".
"But what?" Ji Mo asked with interest.
"However, he cannot guarantee our safety. Even so, we have to pay tribute to him to obtain the safety he promised, because we can't deal with the werewolf, and we can't resist him. I even think that if it weren't for wealth , he doesn’t care about our life or death at all. If the werewolf is the primary threat to us, he is the blood-sucking vine that is entangled in us, but we cannot and do not dare to resist!"
Barron's voice was low, and at the end, as if the long-pressed anger in his chest was aroused, he roared in a low voice.
"Vampire vine?" Ji Mo smiled, this is a good metaphor.
At this time, Lilos lowered his voice with a little anger and whispered to Ji Mo: "Furthermore, there have been rumors that Victor's castle was cursed, which is why it is so gloomy, and their faces are all white. Not like a normal person!".
"Lelos!" Barron trembled and shouted in a low voice: "Just say these words to Mr. Ji. Don't spread it out. Don't forget how the Kirabis family died!"
Lilos' face straightened up and he said, "Yes, sir!".
Ji Mo touched the beard that had grown on his face after not shaving for a long time and said, "If there is a new person or a force that can protect you now, what choice will you make?"
After hearing this, Barron's eyes became strange as he looked at Ji Mo. An idea appeared in his mind unconsciously, and then he said hesitantly: "Sir, do you mean you want to establish power?".
Ji Mo smiled and said, "It was just a casual comment!"
"Oh!" Barron suppressed his doubts and said, "If we can really protect us and get rid of those beasts, we will naturally not choose Victor again!"
After the words fell, Barron looked at Ji Mo with burning eyes, trying to see from Ji Mo's eyes that the question he just asked was not a casual comment. Unfortunately, Ji Mo's eyes were deep and he could not see any emotion at all. and ideas.
Barron sighed, feeling a little pity, but he would not pursue the question further, let alone whether Ji Mo would answer. If it aroused Ji Mo's bad feeling, it would be more of a loss than gain.
Time passed little by little, and when night fell, the frosty moonlight replaced the sunlight and covered the earth. After shrouding the forest, several black shadows took advantage of the moonlight and stopped at the end of the season amidst the neighing of the war horses. before.
With bright silver armor, a cold attitude, and eyes that were so cold that they contained no emotion, they looked at Ji Mo and his group with a touch of disdain, as if they were looking at some lowly creature.
"You must be Barron!" The leading knight, riding on his horse, looked down at Barron who was standing at the front of the crowd, his superior attitude clearly revealed.
Barron suppressed his dissatisfaction, forced a smile, and said: "Yes!".
The leading knight snorted coldly and said: "Follow me quickly! The other nobles have already arrived!".
Barron nodded without responding. After getting on the carriage, the group followed the knights.
Lilos looked at the eight knights leading the way with undisguised disgust in his eyes, while Ji Mo looked at those knights with interest and looked at each other.
Speaking of which, this was the second time he saw a vampire, but the other person was not very friendly last time. He didn't have much time to look at this legendary creature, but now was an opportunity.
The sickly pale skin and the body exuding a cold aura under the moonlight all indicate that these creatures are different from humans.
But what surprised Ming was that he could hear the other person's heartbeat. Although it was beating very slowly, less than one-tenth of the human heartbeat speed, there was no doubt that there was a heartbeat.
"This is so different from the legendary vampire!"
The terrain of the vampire castle was flat before. It was a plain without any cover. You could see the woods where they came out at the end of the season. After walking through this plain, you could reach Victor's vampire castle.
But just as a group of them walked out of the woods, several black shadows kicked the ground and rushed towards them at extremely fast speeds.
The leading knight sneered, drew his weapon, and charged forward with the vampire soldiers behind him. However, before he charged, he glanced at Barron and Barron's soldiers, and he found that there was no fear on their faces. , after being startled for a moment, he changed his mind and attributed the reason to the reason of being protected by his own group.
When the other party's group rushed towards the werewolf, Ji Mo's ears twitched, and after hearing the sound of rapid running in the woods, he said to Lilos next to him: "Be careful, there are many werewolves behind, I will deal with them." They, these knights are too few in number to deal with them!".
Lilos felt a chill in his heart and said softly: "Okay, sir, be careful!".
Ji Mo smiled, used Chengfeng, landed silently, and left quickly.
When Lilos saw that no one except himself noticed Ji Mo's departure, he couldn't help but admire Ji Mo's strength, and felt deep envy in his heart.
"If I also had such power..."
As soon as the thought appeared in his mind, Lilos smiled and shook his head, suppressing the thought that seemed unrealistic to him, and looked towards the battle ahead.
