He is the Holy Son of the Holy See, but a master of black magic.

The real time is already night.

After Andy woke up, he sat up from the bed and looked at the hazy ocean scenery outside the window, feeling very confused.

I fished for the crown prince, but ended up catching his stepmother...

"Is this luck? Or misfortune?"

He couldn't come up with a definite answer.

Blood transfusion.

Can forcibly integrate the extraordinary bloodline that does not belong to one's own into the body.

This kind of integration is not just a simple blood exchange, but a complex technique that fundamentally changes life.

Using this technique, a person who is not from the Ramones royal family can become a person with royal blood.

This is fundamentally different from Andy pretending to be of royal blood.

He just put on a vest, but the other party was "squeezing his face".

Because this method is so rare, Andy didn't think about it at all before.

He only thought that the person who had established contact with him would be other members of the royal family, even if he was not the crown prince.

It wasn't until he saw the owner of the Mystic Palace with his own eyes just now that he suddenly understood.

Powerful, wealthy, from a palace background, he is hostile to the Ramones family and women from the bottom of his heart, deliberately pretends to be the crown prince, and has a concern for life science that goes beyond other fields...

Putting all the clues together, it was easy for Andy to guess who he was contacting and why he was in contact with the other party.

But whether this was good or bad, he was a little unsure.

If you are facing a young man like the Crown Prince, he can easily see through his thoughts and detect any problems in advance.

But facing the cold-blooded woman who killed her husband to seize the throne, who can guarantee that she can really understand her thoughts and get something from her?

In other words, this may not be a bad thing, but it is certainly something out of control.

Counting from the time he awakened his memory, Andy still felt hesitant for the first time since he was not sure whether it was good or bad.

However, this emotion did not last long, and he was completely shaken off.

"No matter what, there is basically nothing wrong with the York Harbor matter."

Andy decided to think on the bright side.

He is now restricted everywhere and can only stay on an island.

But then, if there is an emergency, he can reveal some information to the woman.

With the hook he laid during the conversation as bait, the other party would definitely send people to catch him.

That's right, caught.

If a child walks around in a busy city with gold in his arms, he will inevitably attract the attention of people with malicious intentions.

Not to mention that the other party is not a "human", but a cold-blooded and greedy dragon.

If you really want to be caught by this dragon, you can predict the ending of being eaten up and wiped clean.

Of course, this is just the worst outcome.

Before that, Andy believed that he still had a chance to avoid falling into this situation.

How to avoid it?

Strengthen yourself enough to get out of any difficult situation?

In the current era, a person who is alone is not qualified to do such a thing.

Without resources, no matter how powerful the things in your mind are, you cannot turn them into clear strength.

It can be said that in the air of this world, there is no "spiritual energy", only "spiritual stones".

And since this road doesn't work, it's clear what to do next.

Taming a dragon.

Tame that dragon.

Cut off its evil thoughts and aggression and turn it into a harmless boost.

While there is still time, there is still room.

No matter how difficult it is, you still have to tame the dragon!

"The original plan remains unchanged."

…

The seemingly calm situation is actually undercurrent.

When Andy was faced with the change and determined his train of thought, bursts of voices kept ringing in a Japanese-style hall.

At this moment, there are many figures in kimonos kneeling on futons, eyes fixed on the direction of the sound.

That's a television.

A TV playing a video.

Perhaps due to interference, the video footage is not very clear.

But this does not affect people here from understanding everything——

This is a torture.

An extremely cruel and bloody torture that took place in a dark basement!

"You may be loyal."

"But what did you get in exchange for your loyalty?"

An old man wearing white overalls was the only torturer in the basement.

In the picture, while he was baking a sharp scalpel with an alcohol lamp, he said to the bald middle-aged man hanging in the corner: "Ignore, ignore after weighing the pros and cons."

"Your companions may have cared about you before, but when they found out that the cost of saving you was completely inconsistent with your own value, they abandoned you very simply."

"Will they shed tears for you? Will they raise your wife and children for you?"

"Maybe."

"But what happens after this?"

"You will be quickly forgotten, and your wife will marry a man you don't know after a period of sadness, and then use your pension to live her new life, which is destined to be happy and joyful, but has nothing to do with you. "

The bald middle-aged man was hung in the corner by a fishing net, his body completely uncovered. The skin and fat on his body were bulged by the mesh, making him appear extremely fat in the dim light.

But the viewers outside the TV can already predict that the former York Harbor Police Chief who once saved Andy will soon lose weight at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"If your wife is a smart and discerning woman, your children may have a qualified stepfather. But if your wife is a stupid and superficial person, then what kind of misery will your children suffer? Situation?"

After the silver scalpel was sterilized, the old man in overalls walked towards the target, but he never stopped talking.

"Okay, even if you don't think about your children, what about your parents? Are they still alive? Are they in good health?"

"If you died here, what would your parents think? Despair? Anger? Pain? Helplessness?"

The bald middle-aged man was wrapped in a fishing net, but his mouth was not gagged.

But during this period, he just stared at the old man in overalls with mocking eyes and never spoke.

"It seems you plan to be a hero."

When he came closer, the bald man still didn't speak.

The old man sighed regretfully, but as he spoke, the knife in his hand suddenly pointed down.

A piece of belly meat was just cut off!

The rough fingers then touched the wound that was leaking blood, and some invisible power seeped into it.

Dark purple traces like blood vessels were born from the belly wound, and then quickly spread to the whole body of the bald middle-aged man.

"The torturer's ability allows you to feel pain several times more intense than normal, but your mind will remain awake during this period and you will not be able to fall into a coma."

The old man in overalls said in his usual tone: "So, remember how you feel now. This is the most relaxing moment for you in the next three days."

The most relaxing moment made the bald middle-aged man couldn't help but groan.

Then he squinted his eyes and finally spoke.

"I saved the boy."

The bald man's voice was hoarse and dry, as if he was in a state of extreme dehydration.

"Yes, you have made great achievements." The old man nodded in agreement.

"That is a child who is countless times stronger than me." Bald Head continued: "Whether it is now or in the future."

"Yes, as we all know, the boy is a genius."

"He will make us stronger, strong enough to finally avenge me."

The bald man gritted his teeth and said, "I believe this day will come, what do you think?"

"I believe too."

The old man in overalls nodded, "But how long will it take?"

"Ten years? Twenty years? Fifty years? One hundred years?"

Every question meant that a knife was falling, so pieces of meat continued to fall to the ground, and blood flowed rapidly.

"They will avenge me."

The bald middle-aged man kept repeating this sentence.

But gradually, the groan in his mouth turned into screams, the screams turned into screams, and the screams turned into wailing, crying, and begging for mercy...

In the face of Ling Chi's tactics, he, who had a tough guy appearance, persisted for less than ten minutes before he showed his ugly face and told everything he knew in one go.

However, the torture continued, and the screams became more intense.

Until someone pressed the remote control switch, the TV screen was suddenly extinguished.

Everything came to an abrupt end.

There was silence in the Japanese-style hall, so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.

Not long ago, the bald director rescued Andy, but he was targeted by the housekeeper.

After waiting for a few days and finding that no one came to rescue him, the middle-aged man was arrested.

Then he was tortured to extract a confession, which became the chicken to scare the monkeys. It was videotaped and spread to every local extraordinary person.

The Kozia family, which once took in Andy, also received a share.

This can't help but make the audience here feel frightened, their faces turn pale, their expressions are panic, anger, sadness, and most of all, expressionless numbness.

These emotions made the surrounding atmosphere low, silent, and full of deathly silence.

Until the leader of the old warriors spoke slowly, "Go back and rest first. Remember to write a post-view review tomorrow. The butler is pressing hard."

Still silent.

People showed anger after hearing this, but they just stood up and left one after another, with no interest in talking at all.

Until only the old samurai and a nun named Lily were left in the room.

"What's wrong with you?"

The old warrior, who was kneeling in front of the TV, turned his head to look at his granddaughter. "If you want to ask why we didn't send someone to rescue him, then you don't have to ask."

"I just want to say, why not find foreign aid?"

The girl frowned and her face was tense, "I don't believe that the royal family will lack enemies with their behavior, let alone that within the empire, we won't be able to get justice!"

She had been holding in her anger for a long time.

Not only was he forced to watch the video but also write down his thoughts after watching it. Before that, the housekeeper who had suppressed Andy had sent people to search the inside and outside of the manor.

Such behavior is simply annoying to the extreme!

“After being ordained as a nun, you have experienced that power.”

The old warrior was very calm.

In response to his granddaughter's question, he said, "Now, tell me, what does it feel like to have the power to control a nun's profession?"

"Mysterious, powerful, otherworldly," Lily answered.

"Yes, otherworldly."

The old warrior said: "Then, how do you, who transcend the world, view those ordinary people in the world?"

"If an ordinary person points a gun at me," Lily said, "I will still be killed."

"You can't help it now," the old warrior asked, "What about the future?"

Lily said nothing after hearing this.

She already understood what her grandfather wanted to say.

"Extraordinary people have extraordinary power and can completely ignore the constraints of secular laws and rules."

The old warrior did not intend to shut up, but patiently explained:

"In this case, do you think there are more extraordinary people who strictly abide by their inner morals, or do you think there are more extraordinary people who rely on extraordinary power to vent their desires in the secular world?"

"There are always people who insist on justice." The girl was very unconvinced by this.

"Yes, there is such a kind of person."

The old warrior nodded, "But what about their children, their parents, their relatives and friends, and even their family's ancestors?"

"Can righteous people control themselves and those related to them?"

“How would a righteous person react if someone around them made a mistake?

"Can they still stand up for justice?"

Lily was silent after hearing this.

She wanted to say yes, but that was obviously quibbling.

"So, now back to your question."

The old warrior said slowly: "You ask whether justice can be obtained within the empire. Then tell me, whose standpoint is this justice based on?"

"Of the many extraordinary families in the world, including ours, who can be cleaner than the other?"

"...Is this all we can do?"

"Otherwise, what else can we do? Expect a hero to fall from the sky to deliver justice?"

The old warrior said calmly: "If there is such a person, then there is a high probability that he will also be our enemy."

"And if he is not this kind of person, what reason does he have to stand on our side to fight against the York royal family, against that kind of thousand-year-old family with massive heritage and trump cards?"

"But, doesn't the royal family have any enemies?" The nun was still dissatisfied.

"They have enemies."

The old warrior replied, "But at their level, an enemy today may become a friend tomorrow. If you go to the enemies of the royal family, the chance of being sold is even greater."

"In the final analysis..."

The girl finally understood, "We have no chance of succeeding in our resistance, right?"

"This is a long and certainly hard fight."

The old warrior replied noncommittally.

Seeing his granddaughter's gloomy expression, he thought for a moment and added another sentence.

"But if we add more members like Andy, the time of this fight can be greatly shortened."

"The price is that the person who really made a great contribution died tragically because of it? Are we here to just sit back and enjoy the results?"

"No one wants to see this happen."

Facing his granddaughter's emotional questioning, the old warrior could only say this.

The girl didn't speak again after hearing this.

After a long moment of uncertainty on her face, she suddenly stood up and walked outside the house.

The old warrior frowned when he saw this, "Impulse can't solve any problems."

"I was just looking for the boy."

Lily said without looking back: "The person who saved him was tortured to death because he saved him. I would like to hear what he would say about this."

What to say to this?

The old warrior was startled when he heard this, then shook his head helplessly and did not speak to stop it.

There is nowhere to vent your anger, so you can only vent your anger on Andy, the client?

Ordinary people might do this, but he knew that his granddaughter was not such an unreasonable person.

She must also know that it is impossible for the boy far away on the island to know everything that happened in York Harbor during this period.

Therefore, the girl who seemed to walk out angrily was just unconvinced.

Not convinced by the teachings of elders.

In other words, she is unwilling to face the truth of the world and is eager to gain ideological support from others, especially outstanding peers.

It is normal for young people to have this kind of mentality.

However, it is very useless.

After staying together, what else can they do besides being incompetent and furious?
