The bodyguard's hand slowly left the hilt of the sword, and his right hand moved upwards to his helmet, slowly taking it off. While taking off the helmet, his left hand was slightly placed in the center of his face, hiding a little more or less his face.

At first, Rosa didn't understand what the other party meant, but when the other party took off his helmet, his eyes immediately widened.

"Dude...Dude...Master..." Rosa suddenly recognized the other party's identity. The Blood Duke himself was in front of him. Although strictly speaking, Rosa had never seen the Blood Duke several times, he believed that he would never admit his mistake. His face turned pale in an instant, and the big drop of sweat on his forehead fell uncontrollably. He wanted to explain, but everything disappeared in his throat.

"Get out." The Bloody Duke tilted his head slightly and said a word to him.

Rosa was pardoned and quickly ran back to the road he came, only to regret that his parents had less legs. The soldiers behind him also followed him. They had all noticed the identity of this mysterious bodyguard. When Rosa said "Duke", they understood who the person in front of them was.

Everyone admitted that the Duke of Blood was a very generous lord. However, everyone remembered that the Duke of Blood was a cruel monster that fed on blood after all.

After a long time, Rosa was a little more awake from the loss of his soul and despair.

"Sir, that's the one just now... the Blood Duke?" asked one of his subordinates. Not everyone acted like Rosa, a large part of them were far more curious than fear.

Rosa nodded, thinking about his future destiny. He slowly recovered his calmness. Since the Blood Duke did not punish him immediately, it means that this matter is within his tolerance. Apart from increasing the difficulty of pleasing the Blood Duke in the future, there is no other thing. He began to consider whether he should volunteer to go to the battlefield. Although Ryan's civil war had basically stopped, the battle for vampires to secretly expand their power was never interrupted. Because some people always think that they can fight against the Blood Duke's forces, especially those governors sent by the Royal City Committee and who know nothing about the local situation. Since the civil war has not been completely calm, these people often come to serve with a whole guard.

If Rosa took the initiative, he should be able to find such an opportunity easily...

But he immediately remembered the danger of the battlefield, and the cruelty of the Blood Duke to the losers. The cruelty of the vampire is as famous as generosity.

"Sir, why is he here?" someone asked boldly.

"It's probably related to yesterday," replied another companion next to him. "I saw with my own eyes... at least ten dukes' guards surrounded the prison van."

"Prison car?"

"I bet that 90% of them are prison carts. When the car stopped, I secretly watched it. The marks on the cart were too deep, which means it was heavy and should be made of steel. Only the prison cart needs so many steel components." The soldier said confidently. "And I happened to hear them talking, as if there was a traitor in the car... a betrayer among them."

For them, the storm has ended here and has not caused more. No one has ever considered the possibility of "The Blood Duke is a fake" - there are many ways to seek death, each of which is easier and more pleasant than pretending to be a vampire.

On a roadside that was not particularly far from the Purple Stone, the obviously northern style carriage stopped. Their carriage did not get enough rest just now, so they had to pause on the roadside.

The coachman and guard, or the person who was mistaken for the Blood Duke, was Ash Rufate. He bought this helmet on the road to hide his appearance. He originally planned not to be recognized, and he completed the transaction like an ordinary person and turned back. But in the situation just now, he had to pretend to be a vampire.

As it turns out, the effect is much better than expected.

Ashurufat parked his carriage under the shade of a tree a little further away from the road. The road was very prosperous and merchants were coming and going, but after all, he left the main road, so he didn't encounter any trouble.

He sat in the carriage driving space and turned around to speak to the twins in the car. Although Star Ke had been covered up with makeup as much as possible by Aunt Mary's arrangement, after all, the changes were too amazing and could not avoid any search.

If Ashu Rufate hadn't disguised the Blood Duke just now, this matter might have developed to an uncontrollable level.

"The situation is probably not very good," said Ashu Rufate. "The power of vampires is much stronger than we expected. Do you remember what happened last night?"

Last night, they spent the night in a small village next to Mir City. The reason they didn't go into the city was to avoid trouble - as mentioned earlier, Xingke's state at this moment really couldn't withstand any searches. But when they were approaching the village, because it was dark, the villagers mistakenly thought that it was a group of wandering bandits and robbers approaching the village.

"Get out of here, this village is protected by the Blood Duke!" The people in the village shouted at that time.

Although the misunderstanding was eliminated later and they spent the night in the village at the cost of a little money, Ashurufat would not forget the words shouted by the villagers. The vampire power in Sivania was already secretly expanding - and the extent of expansion was beyond anyone's imagination. Even Belar, who claimed to be "focusing on Sivania", did not know that the vampire power had developed to this point. This was no longer the infiltration of a few spies and arranging a few traitors, but the infiltration that had been truly controlled.

Ryan is still half-dead now, and I don’t know how long it takes to restore his strength to attack the vampire again. And Tianxiao has the ability to organize the attack. Perhaps when the Ryan people finally have the national strength to attack the vampire, the entire Ryan has fallen under the control of the vampire.

"The power of vampires may have expanded greatly," Xing Ke replied. "We should... complete the transaction as quickly as possible and leave."

"It seems that the original plan is not reliable." What happened just now clearly shows that Xingjian will encounter danger - it is no longer a secret about the taste of vampires, and it is not an exaggeration to everyone. However, just now, Ashu Rufate really didn't know that the twins looked like vampires. Although their actual age has far exceeded the tolerance of vampires - in theory, it is safe, but who can explain this clearly?

The original plan was that Ashu Rufate put on a helmet, disguised as an escort, and came out to discuss deals with the vampire. But if Ashu Rufate looked very consistent with the vampire's hobbies... Well, as a deep-rooted prejudice, Ashu Rufate had no confidence in the safety of Ashu Rufate. After all, the vampire is a monster that feeds on human blood, and he might make some...

"I'm afraid the whole of Sivania is looking for girls like us." Xing Ke said with a little worried.

"Put on a veil." Xingjian suggested.

"It would be rude to wear a veil when meeting officially." Ashu Rufate reminded. "If it weren't for this, I would have come forward."

"For men, wearing masks in formal occasions cannot be explained. But for women, it makes sense." Xingmi suddenly said. "I have seen similar situations when I was in Hawk City. If there are any defects on my face, women can wear veils on any occasion."

"But in this case," Xingke said, "it's about changing our original plan."

Their original plan was to take a little time to learn more information, and it would be best to take Via, Istria, Meno and New Town to ask for treatment from the vampire. But now, considering the dangers facing the twins, the first thing can be ignored. In fact, based on what you see and hear on the road, it is not a waste of time.

"We go directly to the edge of the new city of Sivania...the dark castle. Complete the treatment as quickly as possible, and then you can leave." Ashu Rufate said. "Due to the meantime, minimize the chance of showing up as much as possible." He initially felt that his appearance could not be exposed, but now he realized that the twins were in similar situations to him.

...

"Where is this?" The violent shaking of the carriage gradually pulled the girl's will back to reality from her drowsiness. She opened her eyes and saw a familiar face. It was her female guard, Lalia, known as the Blood Rose.

"Her Majesty Queen, are you awake?" Lalia smiled. Although the little girl has abdicated for several years, Lalia always calls her "Her Majesty Queen". Speaking of which, the little girl feels a little strange. Lalia did not leave her sister, but stayed by her side.

"Where is this?" The little girl struggled to get up, and she felt a severe headache. It was the sequelae of the drug and the joint effect of the impact along the road. The little girl couldn't help but moan, Lalia hugged her and gently stroked her head. "This is not my home?!" She was a little frightened to find that there were fences surrounded by iron. The fence was also covered with thick wooden boards.

"We're in a car." Lalia smiled bitterly. "I'm sorry, Her Majesty, I've implicated you."

"What happened...what happened?" the little girl tried hard to recall, but found that the memory was blurred. "I can't remember anything...what happened?"

"It's the side effect of the mysterious fragrance." Lalia replied. Her physique is far better than the little girl, so she has basically recovered. But even she is helpless in the face of this unsolvable cage. "We have been attacked and are now prisoners."

"Sneak attack? Sneak attack me?" The little girl opened her eyes wide. "Who is it?!"

"It's the vampire's servant." Lalia replied, smiling bitterly again on her face. "There are too many, nearly twenty, I don't even have a chance to escape."
