I became a cannon fodder villain. If I want to survive, I must take care of my baby first.

"Pal, what happened?" Count Dracula's voice came from outside.

"It's nothing, Count. The bathroom was too slippery and I almost fell. Please accept my last proposal and renovate this bathroom!" Lingxi Pal said with forced calmness.

"I know, you always slip every time we take a shower together!" Dracula William complained loudly.

"Mr. Tesis, your body...I..." Lingxi Pal looked at the towel in his hand in horror.

He was just helping Thesis wipe his body, and a large piece of flesh fell off.

The wound was like a big hole, filled with a mixture of blood and mud, and the towel was also covered with sand.

"Sorry, did I scare you? This is my physical condition, and I can only maintain it with magic power." Thesis himself seemed very calm.

He calmly cast a spell, and the mud and sand flew back to the wound, repairing his body as before.

"Your physical condition is very poor. Is it related to the mark on your hand?" Lingxi Pal asked.

"Yeah." Thesis didn't explain much about it.

"Don't worry, Mr. Tessis. Miss Manjusawa is a very easy-going person. She can even accept vampires, so she naturally won't hate you." Lingxi Pal said as he helped him wash his body.

"I hope so." Thesis smiled slightly.

"Prisoner's mark?" Doyle seemed a little unbelievable when he heard what Manjushage had just said.

"Yes, I checked the information some time ago. The one in Mr. Tesis's hand is the prisoner mark of the sea prison." Manjushage replied.

There is a prison on the illusory sea at the southern end of the Great Wilderness, which is used to detain all kinds of extremely vicious criminals.

Everyone brought here will be marked with a mark that restricts their magic power and makes them unable to use magic directly. The restriction will only be lifted upon death.

"But isn't he still alive? Why is the prisoner mark on his body extinguished?" asked Mekalos.

She survived the fire and was immediately deemed a criminal and sent to a prison at sea.

If it weren't for Senn, the new lord of Tasso City, who stopped her halfway and gave her the opportunity to appeal, Meikalos would probably have died in the dark prison.

"Once the prisoner's mark is applied, it can never be erased for life, but there are more than one way to eliminate its effect." Manjushage said.

“I remember reading in a book before that it said that the only way to get rid of the death penalty is to immerse the criminal’s entire body in the sea, which is no different from death.” Luo Shiqi said.

Manjushage gave a thumbs up: "Not bad, you remember it very well."

"Hehehe." Luo Shiqi scratched the back of his head embarrassedly.

"You mean he survived after falling into the Sea of ​​Illusion? How is that possible!" Doyle looked very surprised.

The Sea of ​​​​Illusion is called the forbidden zone of life. In fact, there is no other substance except sea water.

Surviving from the sea of ​​illusion is not something that can be done just by thinking about it.

It's absurd for normal people to just imagine it.

Manjushage also saw a similar mark a few days ago and investigated it. She was completely dumbfounded and thought what she saw was an illusion.

However, the appearance of Thesis broke this idea.

Even the person she saw before might be Thesis.

But at that time he was obviously mentally disturbed and said some strange things.

I thought this sloppy man was a homeless person who would freeze to death on the roadside, but I didn't expect that he actually survived and was met by Manjushage.

"Then isn't Thesis a very dangerous person? After all, he is a criminal who just got out of prison," Doyle said.

"There's no need to worry about that. The riots left countless people wrongfully imprisoned. Even if people later wanted to redress their innocence, most of the wrongly accused had already died in the dark prisons. It's a miracle that he got out alive. Even if he's a suspect, we'll just keep him in our custody for a while, and then make plans." Manjushage said.

No matter what means he used to escape from the sea prison, with Luo Shiqi around, nothing could go wrong.

After a while, Thesis changed his clothes and came out.

He had a skinny body and dry skin, which completely fits the image of a prisoner who had been detained in prison for a long time.

Lingxi Pal helped him tidy up his messy long hair, and his appearance was much better than before when he was half human, half ghost.

The dinner prepared by Count Dracula was very sumptuous. Luo Shiqi and Doyle, the two guys who had previously said they were not hungry, ate more wildly than anyone else.

On the contrary, Lycoris radiata, whose stomach was growling with hunger, could not eat.

"Mr. Tesis, why are you alone in a place like this?" She wanted to figure it out.

"I'm looking for someone." Thesis was so hungry that his skin and bones were visible. His skinny body, like dead grass, looked like it would fall down at the slightest gust of wind. However, he ate slowly and did not forget to answer Manjushage's questions.

"Who?" Manjushage asked again.

“I don’t know.” He shook his head. “I forgot a lot of things. I just knew I wanted to find someone, so I wandered around.”

"If you need, you can come with us to Flowing Light City later. There is a clock tower there. It is said that the sound of the bell contains magic that can awaken the beauty in people's hearts." Mei Carlos suggested.

"Is Liuguang City the territory of Lord Yangcaiqiao?" Thesis suddenly became nervous.

When he heard someone mention this last name, Carlos frowned slightly, obviously recalling some unpleasant memories.

She took a deep breath and said, "No, this is my territory, Carlos. It has nothing to do with the colorful bird."

A sincere smile appeared on Tessis's withered face: "Thank you for your suggestion, I want to give it a try."

After that, the two had no more communication.

It is true that Thesis has lost his memory.

Otherwise, he would not dare to poke her lungs in front of Carlos.

Judging from his subconscious fear of the surname Yangcaiqiao, it can be basically confirmed that Tethys was a victim of the heavy pressure of Yangcaiqiao's power back then.

Because of this, Mei Carlos was so guilty that he couldn't raise his head.

As soon as the dinner was over, she found Count Dracula and said she was sleepy and wanted to go to bed.

This was true. She had been working hard for several days and had been lacking sleep due to the harassment from others. She really should have a good sleep.

But after what just happened, she must have been blaming herself so much that she couldn't fall asleep.

"It's not your fault." Manjushage really wanted to comfort her, but in the end she couldn't say it.

The barrier was too dark, which might be comfortable for vampires, but unbearable for humans like Manjushage.

Luo Shiqi subconsciously tried to light a fire several times, but was suppressed by Manjushage.

His golden flames are deadly dangerous to vampires. At such a close distance, accidents can easily happen even if you just watch from a distance.

Fortunately, Count Dracula was thoughtful and lit a row of blue candles in time after going downstairs.

"This is a will-o'-the-wisp, a flame that emits cold air. Although it's not as warm as an ordinary candle flame, it's brighter and doesn't hurt vampires." Count Dracula bared his fangs and introduced it in a playful tone.

The audience for his explanation were mainly Luo Shiqi and Doyle, who excitedly looked around the castle as soon as they finished their meal.

I am used to seeing human residences, but I have never heard of a vampire's castle.

They touched the wall to see if there were any of the mechanisms described in the novel.

After a while, he looked at the ceiling, trying to find something new where the candlelight couldn't reach.

"Is there anything on it?" Luo Shiqi's eyes lit up and he couldn't help asking curiously.

"It's a secret. If you really want to know, you can come to the castle to ask me for the answer next time." An unfathomable smile appeared on Count Dracula's charming face.

Luo Shiqi immediately looked at Manjushage, and that eager expression seemed to be asking: Can I come to visit again?

Manjushage smiled helplessly: "As long as the count doesn't mind."

Dracula William, who was called, said: "I hope everyone can come to see me more often. Of course, it's best to be at night. If there is nothing special during the day, vampires need to catch up on sleep."

Not long after, Luo Shiqi pointed to a painting on the wall and asked, "Count, is that you?"
