source blood

In the forest, Rhine's answer made the two earls furious!

Their faces were distorted, and one of them took a step forward and gave Rhine a hard blow with his nails.

Rhine's cheek was cut by nails immediately, and blood flowed down his face.

But at this moment, he had recovered his calm and silence, and the wound on his face did not allow him to show any expression.

Just as the two earls were about to talk, there was the sound of chaotic footsteps in the distance, and a large number of holy knights were coming here!

Although the upper echelons of the blood race and the church have a tacit understanding with each other, the ordinary lower-level members never know this, just like the Rhine in the past.

What they have been taught is that light and darkness will never coexist, and the light of the Lord will eventually illuminate the night!

The two earls are not suitable to appear in front of a large number of holy knights, and they have disappeared from Rhine without the priest speaking.

The priest took two steps forward at the same time.

Standing in front of the galloping holy knights, he asked them, "Where's the first embracer of the Rhine?"

The people who chased after him and finally caught up were stunned for a moment.

The priest asked again, his expression became stern, and his voice became tense: "Where is the first embracer of the Rhine?"

The holy knight stammered: "Uh...gone, we didn't see another person..."

Anger suddenly surged into the mind of the priest, and the priest yelled: "Line carried his first embracer on his shoulders. There must be something wrong with the first embracer. Now I have captured the truly powerful Rhine. And You tell me that you have lost a vampire who has a physical problem and needs to be taken care of by his descendants!"

Holy Knight: "I'm very sorry, Lord Priest!"

What's the use of being sorry, I don't want your sorry, I want Rhine's first supporter, that damned powerful vampire!

The priest suddenly turned his head to look at Rhine.

In the dark night, Rhine looked back at him coldly.

The opponent's eyes were too bright and sharp, and the moment they met, the priest couldn't help but look away.

After this interruption, the priest calmed down.

He was silent for a moment, and asked the crowd: "Where did you chase them down? When did your pursuit have an accident?"

Many holy knights are not useless. After being reminded by the priest, they quickly remembered: "Line's innate ability is to manipulate the water flow. When crossing the river, he manipulated the water flow to cover our mouths and noses. The riot happened at that time. Rhine is likely to hide people in the water——!"

After all, without waiting for the priest to give orders, the holy knights present have already adjusted themselves.

They divided the entire team into two, one half stayed in place to protect the priest and guard the Rhine, and the other half returned to the river to search for traces of Xi Ge.

But the results are not optimistic.

Half an hour passed, and an hour passed. They searched the nearby river back and forth countless times, but they didn't see a single hair of Xi Ge.

The two earls hiding in the darkness became a little anxious.

The people in the river were not found, and Rhine was firmly watched by the people of the church.

One clue is illusory, and the other clue is firmly controlled by the other party.

They communicate with each other:

"The priest did it on purpose. He took this opportunity to hold Rhine in his hands."

"More knights have come...and so has the knight commander."

"The priest and the knight commander were able to draw with us, and there are so many people left, it is impossible for us to forcibly snatch Rhine away from them."

"It's a good thing that they haven't found Rhine's first supporter now. Half of the secret may be a secret. Let's go back and meet the Duke directly. The Duke will negotiate with the church."

After the two vampires made their decision, they left the scene without hesitation and rushed towards the city!

The count left, the knight commander arrived, and the rest of the holy knights also returned.

Now that the situation is completely on his side, the priest relaxes a lot, and he greets the knight commander: "Did you find anything?"

Knight Commander: "No, I searched all around here, but there is no trace."

So the priest returned to Rhine again.

He looked at Rhine and asked the other party: "Rhein, I will give you another chance, tell me, where is the person who hugged you for the first time?"

Rhine answered the other party with silence.

The holy light lit up on the cross held by the priest.

The priest holds the cross and points to Rhine's left eye.

The priest whispered: "The Lord is willing to save the lost lamb, Rhine, you hope you can understand everything."

Rhine also whispered, and the whisper was full of sarcasm: "The world is always whitewashed by the devil. It is only now that the poor lamb of the Lord understands what kind of road will lead to hell."

The priest made a sudden move.

The scorching cross did not pierce Rhine's eyes, it was pressed on Rhine's neck.

The sound of "sizzling" lasted for a long time, and when the priest took back the cross, a scorched black mark of the cross was branded on Rhine's neck.

The severe pain made Rhine's face twitch. Before he could recover, the priest waved his hand, signaling the holy knights to take the dark creatures they captured and return to the city.

After a brief hustle and bustle, the forest became quiet again.

Rhine was brought back to the church by the paladins.

They lead him all the way into the church's underground prison.

The burning flames illuminated the walls repeatedly smeared with blood. Groups of mice crawled over the feet of humans. In the cages on both sides of the corridor, there were huddled people, living or dead, who were being eaten by mice.

Rhine was pushed forward by two holy knights.

When he came to an empty cage, he was pushed into it.

The open door was locked with great chains.

Talk to the two holy knights brought by Rhine, and one of them left first.The other stayed where he was, and said to him a moment later, "Line, do you remember me?"

Rhine glanced at each other.

Of course he recognized the other party. Before this assessment, they were both reserve knights; in this assessment, the other party was successfully promoted to a formal knight, and he had experienced many things.

This holy knight has curly flaxen hair.

He looked at Rhine and said, "I'm so disappointed in you, Rhine, you have been the yearning and goal of many people..."

He didn't wait for Rhine's answer, he left after speaking.

Holy knights don't spend too much time with evil creatures, which would imbue them with an unclean aura.

Inside the cage, Rhine watched the back of the other party leaving.

He said in a low voice: "I am also very disappointed."

He was disappointed that he had not understood many things in this city until now.

He added: "Lord, maybe I'm not godly, maybe I've fallen..."

The experience during this period, although weird, is cruel.

But at least—at least he met a respectable elder, so that his heart could be relied on.

He only has some regrets.

That's right, I don't know his name yet...

After leaving the filthy prison underground, the church building once again became magnificent, sacred and solemn.

At this moment, the priest and the knight commander are facing the city's highest church leader, the cardinal, in a room.

It was for this evening that the cardinal had called them.

He said: "I already know what happened tonight. Just now, the Duke of Death contacted me specifically. He proposed a possibility to me..."

Priest: "What kind of possibility?"

Cardinal: "The first embrace of the Rhine may well be a prince."

The knight leader turned pale with shock: "What, this—"

The cardinal waved his hand gently, and the huge gemstone ring flashed past his fat hand: "Don't be too nervous, when the Duke of Death was talking about this, he told me that the four princes are all in their territories. Then the person who appeared in this city is likely to be a prince other than the four princes, or a vampire with some kind of treasure. It is well known that vampires can be improved by devouring the blood of their own kind. So the Duke of Death asked I proposed a deal. It just so happens that I also need a brilliant achievement to leave this city and obtain a cardinal or higher title. After I leave, of course you can go further. This is a good thing that kills three birds with one stone, so I Agree to the deal of the Duke of Death."

Having said that, the Cardinal paused for a moment.

After the two subordinates digested the news, he continued:

"This plan is like this. The Duke of Death will contact his two friends. A total of three Dukes and more than ten Marquises will come to the church to hide, and we will arrange everything as we used to deal with high-level vampires. Powers of light and darkness, together against the First Embrace."

"Among them, the most critical point is, does Rhine have such a great influence on that first-time owner? Can he successfully lure that person over?"

The priest and the knight commander looked at each other.

The "further step" in the cardinal's words moved them.

They said: "I believe that Rhine has it, that person flew here specially to rescue Rhine last time!"

The cardinal simply made a decision: "Okay, spread the news throughout the city: we have captured the escaped and corrupted church reserve knight Rhine. Three days later, I will personally hold a fire party for him, and let him die under the power of the flames." Wash away your sins and gain a new life.”

in a dream.

A soft light filled Xi Ge's eyes.

Xi Ge felt himself stretch out his hands.

He was surprised to find that at this moment, he was not as firm and impatient as he had guessed in the past. He still had a lot of hesitation, and various considerations passed through his mind.

But hesitation and consideration did not change his decision.

His hands touched the light cluster in front of Suspended.

He opened his chest and took this ray of light into his chest.

At this last moment, what he thought was:

This is something that has been taken away from Cain, and Cain is the ancestor of all vampires, so of course this thing can also be accepted by all other vampires!

At the same time as the light entered the chest, the two forces of the same source came into contact with each other.But the power of the same source is not compatible, so the horror like a cosmic explosion exploded from Xi Ge's body.

Xi Ge was stunned for a moment.

The power in his body exploded under the impact of the diamond heart, and he was out of balance.

He felt his strength drop rapidly, and at the same time, Samael's cry sounded beside him.

There was deep panic in Samael's voice, and Xi Ge's pupils reflected his distorted expression, and he was shouting: "What's going on, what happened to you, why your abilities are declining, why My ability has also fallen along with your ability!"

That is of course because you signed a very unfair contract with me.

Did you not react until now?

Xi Ge sympathized with Samael politely.

He felt that the image of Samuel in front of him and the old Sa in the future gradually overlapped.

If possible, he also wants to quietly tease the other party and make some predictions about the future.

But he found that he couldn't do it anymore.

As Lao Sa said, he fell into the cycle of consciousness awakening-consciousness drowsiness.

The last memories are all fragments, Xi Ge felt that he saw many people, surrounded by many people.He felt that he saw the sea again. He and Lao Sa were staying together on an old sampan. The fierce sunlight shone directly into his eyes. In the distance, there was a faint horizon...

Xi Ge suddenly woke up!

He opened his eyes and found that there was a layer of blue mist in front of him.

He blinked before realizing that the blue mist was water in a river, and he was at the bottom of a river.

"Crash" sounded.

Xi Ge got up from the water.

He sat on the river beach dripping wet, looked left and right, and looked again.

He was at a loss for a while.

Where's Pippi?

What about the house?

He was puzzled.

I just fell asleep, why did I fly directly from the bed in the wooden house to the bottom of the river in the distance?

The author has something to say: After sleeping, Xi Ge lost: Pippi x 1, wooden house x 1

Xi Ge: "???"

Just confused, who did it!
