scepter

So he said to the female vampire, "Please, Anna, move him a bit."

Now that the female vampire knew, the priest could do as she said, and dragged her to Yannick without looking at His Excellency the Duke's face.

"Honey, have you taken a fancy to this guy?" Seeing that Yannick squatted down and looked at the elf with all his strength, the Duke of Blood's tone began to be sour.

"No, I'm just studying one thing, although he looks pretty good." Yannick said, first touched his face, and then went to pull his clothes.

"Baby!" The Blood Duke raised his voice.

However, before he could prolong the tune, he was drowned out by a muffled bang.

The silver-haired priest shook his hand, "How about this punch?"

Ans looked at the redness and swelling in the corner of the elf's eyes, "It's good, but the strength is a little bit weak."

The priest sighed: "After all, I am still a wounded patient!"

And his hands hurt immediately after beating, which showed that the elf's skin was really thick.

The Blood Duke comforted, "Would you like me to help you?"

"No, thank you, you have to come to revenge in person to experience the pleasure." The priest politely said, then kicked the elf a few times, thought about it, and then stepped on the back of his hand and crushed it a few times. Down.

Turning to look at the two people who were staring blankly at him: "Okay, Anna, you can drag him out."

At this time, the male elf who was still lying unconscious on the ground had one eye swollen high and looked ridiculous. Judging from the strength of the priest just now, the kicks on the elf's body would definitely not be worse than the kicks on his face. light.

Female vampire: "..."

"Honey, you are so ruthless!" Ans marveled exaggeratedly: "His experience reminds me not to offend you in the future!"

The priest said softly: "It's okay, you have already received your retribution."

Ans immediately remembered the contract, "..."

The priest announced: "Okay, when we get out of the gate, you can knock me out."

Two hours later, when Avery and others found Yannick led by a blue-eyed little black cat, he was leaning against a tree with Augustine and another person lying beside him. The man's ears were pointed, as if he was still an elf.

All three were unconscious, especially the silver-haired priest, who had a big hole in his back, and was almost stained red with blood. The blood was still gurgling out, but even when he was unconscious, he was still holding on tightly. Wearing a staff.

The other two people also had scars of varying degrees of severity, and it seemed that they had just experienced a fierce battle not long ago.

The little black cat jumped off Baker's shoulder, ran to the side of the silver-haired priest, stretched out its tongue and gently licked his hand, but the priest didn't respond at all.

Seeing Yannick's injury, Beck's eye circles immediately turned red. He almost thought that the priest had died, so he rushed forward without even thinking about it. Bart finally had a sense of reason and quickly grabbed him: "You will make Xi Your Excellency's injury is getting worse, hurry up and take them back, this place is not far from Ghost Castle, it's too dangerous!"

"Wait, I'll stop the bleeding for you first!" Avery squatted down and used the healing technique to heal Yannick's injuries a little bit. As for Augustine and the elf, several other people tossed and turned, only found some bruises It's just up, no bleeding wounds.

A few people didn't care about other things, Alexander quickly took out a scroll of teleportation - which was given to him by Yannick before leaving, and transferred everyone to the hotel room where the location was recorded in advance.

Once back in the room, Baker immediately exploded.

"Yes, no, yes, you guys!" He gritted his teeth, his chest heaving violently, "Your Excellency Hill will not suffer such a serious injury!"

His performance was not all acting. Although Yannick had revealed a little inside information to him, indicating that he was prepared, but considering Beck's poor acting skills, he didn't go too deep. When the loyal Beck saw the priest was seriously injured Immediately, he couldn't help but blame himself, and correspondingly, his resentment towards other people also deepened.

"Why didn't you listen to His Excellency Hill's arrangement earlier! He was injured only to save your disobedient companions, for you!" He roared to his heart's content.

Everyone lowered their heads in shame, even Ai Fuli, who usually likes to argue the most and whose eyes are above the top, is no exception. He whispered: "Let me heal His Excellency Hill first..."

Bart also held back Beck: "Yes, Beck, let Lord Hill heal and rest first, and wait for him to wake up if there is anything to do."

Although he wasn't as excited as Beck was, after all, he hasn't been with Yannick for a long time, but in his heart, since Yannick saved them last time, he has already agreed with the priest, but he hasn't had time yet. Expressing repentance and gratitude to the priest alone made him feel no less guilty than others.

Baker wiped away his tears vigorously, without even looking at them, he stomped to the other side to make room for them.

Avery hurried forward with his staff and began to concentrate on using healing techniques.

Ans, the little black cat, lay beside the sleeping priest's hair, patted the bed with its tail, and dozed lazily, without looking at the crowd.

Yannick slept for two full days and two nights.

It's no wonder that no matter how calm he looks on the surface, he is not a god after all, and he has been tense since he received this task.

It is necessary to fight wits and bravery with the Duke of the Blood Race, tempting him to sign a contract to increase his own help, but also to troubleshoot these pig teammates.When the pig teammate is not strong enough, he has to take the risk himself and run into the vampire's lair to wait for an opportunity to save people. Even if there is a vampire with strong force value by his side, who can be sure that he will not suddenly tear up the contract and go back on his word Woolen cloth?

After a series of exhaustion of mental and physical strength, he was already extremely exhausted, and it was a kind of enjoyment to be able to take a good sleep while he was injured.

Any gain in this world has to be paid for. Yannick has a smooth personality and is slick, and he can say a few words to anyone. Others see him as if he can do everything easily. Like Sophia and Baker, with him People who get along with each other for a long time are more habitual to follow his words as the truth, but in fact, he has to pay no less effort than others.

Therefore, it is not good to pretend to be aggressive. If you pretend to be a habit, others will think you are a genius.

During the two days when Yannick was in a coma, his team had automatically reached some consensus: for example, the status of the silver-haired priest as the leader of the small team had been recognized, and for example, everyone felt that not only did they fail to complete this task Very good, but it was delayed. When His Excellency Hill wakes up, he must make a good confession to him, as well as the various mentality changes of Avery and others, and so on.

All in all, Yannick's hard work was not in vain. Of course, he had already expected this ending before doing these things. After all, Avery and the others are not too bad in nature, and they have been neglected and isolated by other people in the Holy See for a long time. Yannick would go to great lengths to subdue him because of his powerful background.

Little black cat: "Meow~"

This was the first sound Yannick heard when he woke up.

The priest's subconscious reaction was: How long has this guy been hungry, why does it sound a little dissatisfied?

Baker, who was fiddling with the tableware, turned his head and saw the priest squinting his eyes and opening them slightly. He was so excited that he almost rushed towards him, but he finally restrained himself.

But if he really pounced, considering Yannick's current situation, he might have to give up again.

"This is really good, are you hungry, here is freshly made mushroom soup and beef macaroni!"

As soon as he said it, Yannick was really hungry. He sat up with his forehead propped up, "Come on, how long have I been asleep, what about Bart and the others?"

"Bart is guarding outside. He said that as a paladin, he can't protect the priest, and he has no face to see you. Ai Fuli and the others are patrolling outside in batches, worried that the blood race will come over."

Yannick thought to himself, all the descendants of that William were about to be slaughtered by them, and the only surviving female vampire had surrendered to Ansair, how could anyone come to take revenge, even if that William ran to find him crying The father filed a complaint, and it is estimated that it will be impossible to kill him in a while.

However, the pig teammates finally have a little subjective initiative and need to be praised.

He looked down and found that the clothes on his body had been replaced with priest robes, "Have you washed me?"

"No, I just wiped off the blood on your body and changed into clothes." Baker replied.

"Meow~" the little black cat cried softly again, showing off its presence.

"Get it something to eat too, Bart." Yannick said.

"Okay, but what is the right food for a kitten?"

"Meow!" I want to drink blood, don't pretend not to see it!Cross the river and tear down the bridge!

Oh, of course, the blood duke in another world would not know the idiom of crossing the river and tearing down the bridge. This is purely guessed by the eyes of the priest looking at it.

"Just give it a little of what I eat." Yannick said calmly.

Calm down, Your Excellency, I don't believe you didn't steal blood while I was sleeping.

Under each other's eye contact, the little black cat crouched down with a guilty conscience(?), and let out a lazily cry, indicating that the noble blood duke doesn't have the same knowledge as stupid mortals.

The silver-haired priest scratched its chin in approval.

The Duke of the blood clan was contemptuous in his heart, but at the same time he couldn't resist the cat's nature, squinting his eyes and raising his chin to accept the caress.

"Speaking of which, we still have to thank this kitten. Your Excellency, if it hadn't appeared suddenly and insisted that we go with it, we might not have found you until now!" Baker was a little scared.

Due to Baker's poor acting skills and the fact that even if he knew the plan in advance, Yannick didn't tell him everything in advance, but it was just right, it was too much to cooperate with a blood-blooded duke to save a priest. It was sensational, and if a little bit of news leaked out, he would have to go around endlessly at the Holy See.

Even if Avery and the others have sincerely recognized Yannick's status, Yannick does not intend to take the risk, and Beck's performance can just hide them, because in the eyes of others, Beck is his confidant and guard, more than others. to be close.

"Where's Augustine and the elf?"

"Priest Augustine has woken up, but the elf hasn't woken up, and hasn't woken up."

"Leave him alone, Baker, go and help me find Bart and the others. It's time for a meeting." Yannick put down the dinner plate and wiped his mouth gracefully.

"Don't you need to rest for a while?"

"No need, I feel that my physical strength has recovered. Although my head is still a little dizzy, it should be due to excessive blood loss."

"Oh yes, when you were in a coma, Priest Afuri and the others have already treated you, and the wound on your back has completely healed, so I will invite them here."

Baker turned and walked out. It didn't take long for Avery and the others to appear at the door.

Although the silver-haired priest likes to pretend to be aggressive, he hasn't played the trick of getting out of bed and playing backwards when he is exhausted.

At a glance, he saw that the expressions of the several people who came in were different.

Bart was completely happy, but there was also a trace of apprehension in his joy.

Avery is reserved and ashamed.

It is said that Augustine, who had just woken up, also came over, but nothing could be seen on his face.

There was also the fat priest Darwin who was the fastest escaper, with small eyes rolling around and a smile on his face.

Yannick went straight to the topic: "Since we arrived in Troon Town, there has not been a formal meeting. Even though I am the captain, I feel that I need to explain this behavior to you."

Everyone had long wondered how Yannick could rescue Augustine and an elf from the vampire's lair by himself - even the archbishop in red probably wouldn't have such strength.

As soon as they heard Yannick say that, they immediately pricked up their ears.

Yannick said the words he had prepared a long time ago: "When you found me, you should have seen the aristocratic costumes I was wearing, right? At that time, I found out that there would be blood clan gatherings in Ghost Castle every week, so I dressed myself as The vampire hijacked a low-level blood with a hypnotizing spell, and asked him to take me into the castle to see if I could get news about Augustine."

Ai Fuli and the others couldn't help letting out a low voice when they heard this.

Sneaking into the base camp full of blood clans alone, should we say that this priest is brave, or is the ignorant fearless?But in any case, they really can't match this courage.

Yannick didn't care about their reaction, and continued: "Unexpectedly, at the party, I saw Augustine and that elf being auctioned off as goods. The strength is very strong, I definitely can't save them by myself, I plan to see who Augustine is photographed in the end, and I will work with you to find a way to save them after I come back."

Just by imagining, everyone could imagine the nervousness at that time. As the silver-haired priest opened his eyes and told nonsense, making up half-truths, their emotions were also mobilized, and they all hung their hearts, waiting for him to say go down.

"At this moment, an accident happened." Yannick took the water glass handed over by Baker, and took a sip slowly. "I didn't expect that there would be other people who sneaked in for another purpose like me."

The little black cat yawned boredly.

Make it up, keep making it up, as long as you make it up!

Facing the kitten's disapproval, the silver-haired priest grabbed the quilt at hand and covered it with one hand.

"The vampires not only brought the elves out for auction, but also captured a female mage, and wanted to sell it at the auction, but they provoked too many people, and a group of mages also sneaked in to rescue their companions. Next You can imagine what happened: the mages clashed with the vampires, and I took advantage of the chaos to kill a few vampires and brought Augustine out, but he was also slightly injured."

Yannick spread his hands, "The process is not perfect, but it finally achieved its goal."

The successful completion of the task is beneficial to everyone. Now that the confession is unified, even if it is for themselves, they also know what to say to the Holy See. It is even more impossible for William, the second-generation blood family, to come out and testify.

Augustine, who had been expressionless all this time, suddenly half-kneeled down, and under everyone's amazed gazes, he took one of the silver-haired priest's hands, lowered his head, and lightly pressed his lips against the back of that hand.

"Goddess of Light, I, Augustinier, swear allegiance to Your Excellency Yanikhill, and I will never change my ambition."

The silver-haired priest froze for a moment, "Augustin, you don't need to be like this."

This kind of oath of allegiance usually only appears when the priests face the Pope, but now, he is just a priest who doesn't even have the official title of bishop.

"You saved my life, and I will repay you with my life." Augustine raised his head, still expressionless, but at least he didn't reach the level of facial paralysis like Chris, at least Yannick could still You can see the sincerity and seriousness on his face.

"Thank you." Facing such a serious person, the silver-haired priest could only reply with a solemn attitude.

Seeing Augustine's preemptive allegiance, still in such a low profile, Avery couldn't stand it anymore. He didn't want Yannick to think that he was hesitating, and he hadn't yet treated the silver-haired Pope like Augustine Priest—to be honest, he thought it was a bit out of line.

Then his face flushed red.

In the end, Alexander, who was more honest and kind, helped him and others out of the siege.

Alexander bent down, put his right hand on his left belly, and bowed deeply: "Dear Lord Hill, please accept my most sincere apology. I assure the Goddess of Light that I am willing to be loyal to the team you lead, and I will serve you wholeheartedly. It serves, if necessary, including my life!"

The others quickly followed suit, including Avery.

Priest Darwin followed the others and bent down. After everyone had finished taking their oaths, he asked, "Your Excellency Hill, I'm sorry, please allow me to interrupt, the elf you rescued, the relationship between our Holy See and elves is not very good, that... Well, you should understand..."

The relationship between the Holy See and the elves is not only bad, you can tell from the attitude of the two elves towards Yannick at the beginning, it can be described as shouting and killing.

The silver-haired priest asked modestly: "Then what do you think should be done?"

Darwin blinked his eyes and asked tentatively, "Maybe we can bring him back to the Holy See and dedicate him to Archbishop Gustav?"

It's no secret that the high officials of the Holy See like to keep elves as play pets, but when Augustine, Avery and others heard this, they couldn't help frowning, and a little disgust inevitably appeared in their eyes or faces.

Who knew that the silver-haired priest tilted his head in embarrassment: "I originally wanted to give him to His Excellency Fansherich, he is also an archbishop, isn't he?"

"Ah, this, this... I'm just making a suggestion, it's up to you to decide what to do." Seeing that he had hit a wall, the fat priest retreated immediately without insisting on anything.

"Okay, we can discuss this matter later, don't worry." The silver-haired priest smiled, "Anyway, it's getting late today, so let's just rest and go to Jasmine Port tomorrow."

Now that Yannick has enough right to speak in the team, he said so, so others will naturally not have any objections. Seeing that Yannick looked tired, Ai Fuli and the others left first, leaving the rest space for He, Bart, and Baker took turns keeping watch outside the door.

After they left, the priest didn't lie down in a hurry, but still sat there halfway, rubbing his chin as if thinking.

It wasn't until the other hand casually resting on his thigh felt a slight tingle that he came back to his senses and turned his head to look.

The man who didn't know when he transformed from the black cat was licking his fingers, piercing the thin skin with his fangs, and sucking delicious blood from it.
