I have a shelter

The pale-faced chief maid 'Delina' couldn't help but walked to the window again and carefully opened the curtain a little.

Looking around, in the mist outside the Black Pearl Manor Castle, there are surging figures, flying dust, and a forest of spears!

Absolutely thousands of people!

‘Delina’ swears! She could hear these people's heartbeats beating like war drums!

The many other servants standing guard in front of the windows also had their hearts beating frighteningly fast.

A deafening chorus of shouts suddenly appeared outside the window. Delina was so frightened that her hands shook and she couldn't help biting her lips.

A trace of blood flowed from her lips, and she was unaware of it.

The atmosphere in the manor castle is so depressing that it feels suffocating

Since the early hours of last night, those soldiers began to appear in the fog. They didn't make any movement, as if they were quietly waiting for daylight.

At that time, several groups of Black Pearl Knights couldn't help but rush into the fog, but after entering the fog, a few white lights suddenly flashed, and then there was no more movement.

I wonder if anyone from those groups of knights successfully rushed out.

‘Miss Tanya, you must come back’

Delina closed her eyes and prayed deeply

Many of the 'dukes' in the castle went out with Tanya

That night, everyone in the manor castle was unable to leave the house overnight, even though they had not slept at night for a long time.

But everyone, it’s been a long, long time since I’ve been as lost as I am now.

Throughout the night, she kept drawing the curtains and looking outside. Every time she looked at the dense crowd of people outside the window, she couldn't help but think of the scene ten years ago, when the fog first appeared.

At that time, there were so many things surrounding the city outside.

But what's different this time is that it's monsters that are besieging the city.

That was the biggest crisis Black Pearl Manor had ever encountered.

At that time, they were still human beings

At the beginning, there were just some monsters emerging from the mines connected to the castle's underground fortress.

At that time, there were not many monsters surrounding it. The knights blew up the exit of the mine in time. Fortunately, a group of knights sent by the family master broke out of the siege without disgrace. There are only eight lords summoned by this team of knights.

The other lords gave up here after seeing the scene outside the manor.

Only the eight of them led their knights and rushed into the manor.

They used this manor castle as a defense and were lucky enough to block several attacks from the zombie tide. But as the fog in the valley became thicker and thicker, all the 'ancestors' in the valley who had been buried for thousands of years also woke up.

Those knights who defended the valley thousands of years ago have become a nightmare for all creatures in the valley. The manor castle could no longer withstand the endless attacks of the Lord.

The land outside the manor was almost completely covered with corpses, and Lady Elizabeth had to light the special 'divine fire' left by the 'great priest'.

He called that fire 'Hope'

They followed what the priest told them before and prayed devoutly towards the dawn that appeared in the sky, and the light began to spread outward as the priest said.

But their number was too small, and they ultimately failed to spread to the territories of the vassals. Naturally, no one saw the sunshine and joined the prayer team.

This fire indeed gave them hope.

but only one day

When dusk came that day, the first heavy snow of early winter began to dance in the sky. The hope in people's hearts was eventually replaced by despair

The power of the fire could last for the last night, and its power prevented the dark clouds in the sky from covering the full moon.

Under the crimson moonlight, the thick fog outside the manor was like a thousand-foot high cliff, and more and more monsters were coming from the north. They were hiding in the depths of the mist, looking in the direction of the manor. There was a blue-green light in his eyes, and the rows were like lights shining at night.

Only then did Delina believe that everything that person said was true.

The end has come

The valley is in real disaster!

They only have one last night left!

Everyone knows that when the sun rises tomorrow, they will not be able to see the sun again. Because the fog will block the sun again

And when the monsters destroy this place, they will continue to go south, extinguishing the last glimmer of hope in the valley.

Despair begins to creep in, the fog begins to advance, and people stop praying.

Elizabeth sang the 'Song of Hope' that the priest often sang, and led the eight lords on horseback to the shore of Duxin Lake.

She knew that there was still one last hope in the Black Pearl Valley.

And she also knew that this hope was only for people outside the manor. For herself, the Duxin Lake leads to an abyss

A noise outside interrupted Delina's memories.

She saw a group of people who seemed to have stepped out of the fog and were slowly approaching the manor.

Delina stared hard at the mist, and the fingers holding on to the curtains turned white from the exertion. She expected that the figures coming out of the mist were the Black Pearl Knights who defeated those soldiers. But when she saw the shining armor on those people, she felt dizzy in her head.

They all wore divine battle robes, and the leader wore golden armor and rode a pale golden war horse—the war horse was recognized by Delina the first time she saw it! It's the one that was lost in Black Pearl Manor!

Behind that man was a phalanx of fifty or sixty red-robed knights and more than a hundred white-robed knights, and behind them was a phalanx of numerous infantrymen holding spears.

The phalanxes spread into the depths of the fog, and it was impossible to see how many people there were.

I could only vaguely make out that deep in the mist, there were many flags waving in the wind and panicked figures.

Among the soldiers that Delina could see, they were all wearing divine pattern war robes, and their actions were uniform and very impressive.

The moment Delina saw the battle clothes on their bodies, the last trace of fantasy in her heart was finally extinguished - the people who came were indeed the Knights Templar.

In that frightened situation, Delina couldn't help but look at the leading 'priest' with a complicated expression.

He is younger than when he came to Black Pearl Manor more than ten years ago.

The master has been waiting for him for more than ten years.

And just like what this man said before leaving, he really came back again.

And he also said that if things really have to come to this point, he will come back to take the life of his master.

Indeed, if there is such a person in this world, he has the ability to take the master's life. Then I'm afraid it is indeed the person in front of me

Moreover, he also picked such a time

Miss Delina, the chief personal maid, closed her eyes, a look of pain and despair spreading on her face.

She opened her eyes, clasped her hands together, couldn't help but look at the mist above the sky, and began to pray to the seven gods.

But I don’t know if He can respond to a special person like me

"God, what did we do wrong? Please help Master"

This vampire, like many of her companions, has not yet fully understood her identity.

The Seven Gods had already abandoned them.

The door gradually opened inwards, and George slowly walked in with his men with a solemn expression.

Unlike last time, the main hall and cloister were empty. It wasn't until I passed through several halls and came to the reception hall that I had to pass by that I saw the bustling servants and some sporadic Black Pearl Knights crowded in the hall.

The living room itself is not too big, but these people almost filled it. Even the front door was crowded with people.

They were all people who came here in a hurry because the owner really didn’t take it seriously.

The sound of the door opening made many people turn their heads suddenly. When the servants saw the red-robed knights at the door clearly, they couldn't help but take a few steps back in the panic.

An open space instantly appeared in front of the door.

The maids looked at the armors and divine robes with extremely frightened expressions, but the eyes of the few black pearl knights were full of anger and hatred. The moment the Black Pearl Knights drew their swords from their waists, the servants in the hall seemed to have mustered up the courage to pick up the swords in their hands. But the way these servants hold swords is very funny. Some maids even hold kitchen utensils and shovels.

A lazy sound came from the corridor on the second floor of the reception room. The servants and knights hesitated and spread to both sides to make some space for the visitors. As the crowd continued to disperse, the red carpet connecting the high platform in the middle of the hall was gradually revealed.

On the high platform, there were seven tall and burly knights standing.

These seven knights have never been seen before.

Although the armor on these knights was modified once to fit their enlarged figures. But after seeing the exquisite armor on their bodies, Garvey still recognized them.

He couldn't help but approach his big boss George with a slightly serious look on his face, and whispered in a low voice.

"Sir, these people are indeed the missing lords in the fog. They went to the Black Pearl Manor with Viscount Jeffrey, but only Viscount Jeffrey came back later."

Garvey has not dared to tell the true situation yet, but used the so-called 'banquet' to cover it up - those of them who did not go have betrayed their oath.

No matter which noble or vassal there is in Black Pearl, they all swear an oath to the Earl of Black Pearl (similar to the feudal period after William I in England, rather than the complete feudal rule of France)

Throughout the Black Pearl, the plague was spreading at that time. Those territories where the population was not concentrated were okay, but in the areas where the population was concentrated, the city was full of zombies.

So, those who were able to go there were all true love

"Yeah" George nodded slightly. A few nights ago, after Gast and others provided the list of nobles, he and Garvey had already guessed the identities of these 'Rose Knights'.

His eyes did not linger on the Rose Knights, and then he looked at the escalator leading upstairs.

Miss Elizabeth had already slowly walked down the stairs. She was still wearing a nightgown with a coat on top. It looks like he just woke up.

Seeing the Countess' coldly looking eyes, George showed a slight apology on his face. After bowing slightly, he raised his head and said: "It is really presumptuous to come to visit so early in the morning. But please understand, Because I have heard some shocking rumors recently, there are some things that I have to talk about.”

After he finished speaking, he straightened up and waved.

Then, several red-robed knights dragged several tied nobles and walked in from behind George. After entering, these knights threw the nobles onto the red carpet in front with cold eyes.

The crowd around the red carpet was slightly agitated and made some space. They all looked over.

The nobles who were kneeling on the ground trembled all over, buried their heads under the figures of their companions, and dared not show their faces.

But Elizabeth still recognized the "Viscount Gast" hiding at the back.

"All retreat." The countess frowned slightly at the servants around the red carpet. After she waved her hand, the crowd was quiet for a moment. Then the Black Pearl Knights looked coldly at the uninvited guests in front of them, and led the servants to retreat from several side doors around the hall.

As the number of people in the hall decreased, the countess looked at the still motionless Templar knights at the door, and her frowning brows stood up again: "Your Excellency the Bishop, do your knights not understand what I say?"

'Retreat to advance' George looked at the seven knights standing still beside Elizabeth, and hesitated slightly.

The meaning shown by the countess was actually to let all the idle people go out - she understood that what Gast and others said next was not suitable for others to listen to. At the same time, this move was also in line with the meaning of the 'bishop' - talk.

And the real bishop should not be afraid of no one around.

He waved his hand, and many people behind him retreated.

A few minutes later, on George's side of the hall, only Martin and other red knights were left - they stood beside those nobles. Especially Alexander, like a big bodyguard, he stuck to Gast.

In addition to several red knights, George also had Gavi. The total number of people was about the same as the remaining people on the countess' side.

The countess was left with only the seven Rose Knights behind her and her personal maid, Delina.

As for the other Black Pearl Knights and maids, they lay on the crack of the side door, looking at this place nervously. Many people who had stayed in the manor for more than ten years stared at George.

George looked at the maid who had been staring at him, and then retracted his gaze. Looking at the nobles kneeling on the ground, he opened his mouth coldly.

"Speak!"

As soon as the voice fell, Viscount Gast, who was kneeling on the ground, trembled all over. He raised his pale face, first looked at Lady Elizabeth timidly, and then looked at George who was staring at him coldly not far away.

A few nights ago, he had already explained everything that should and should not be said.

He knew that there was no turning back.

Now the Templar Knights have already been invading, and the Black Pearl Manor is empty.

He knew who to stand on.

So, in his strong desire to survive, he let go of his fear, opened his mouth, and loudly listed Elizabeth's "crimes"!

Listening to the ugly insults and many imposed crimes, Elizabeth's face gradually turned pale.

But her face became more and more strange
