Ella is just a cute school girl who is not familiar with Stephen. The former's execution records can be checked at will in the league.Could it be that such a kind girl who had saved tens of thousands of lives in London was going to be executed just because of her birth?He really couldn't agree with this.

Ling's face became a little better because of what Stephen said, and she continued:

"But we can't guarantee that all alliance members will agree with this, so I can't use letters to convey this news. We still need to be more cautious on the issue of Ella."

Adolf approves of this.

"Yeah, you guys are right...Even Straw, in the beginning, didn't approve of Howard's approach, and we can't guarantee that everyone in the league will accept that."

"You mean father?"

Hyde was slightly surprised. This was the first time he had heard of this.However, based on his understanding of Straw Belousse, this is indeed more in line with the latter's character.

Adolf refilled his glass,

"But I still never thought that the truth of the matter would be so exaggerated... Hey, an ancient dark wizard who has lived for hundreds of thousands of years, a foul blood type, may even be related to the prophet Sibylla, and this is even This is just the tip of the iceberg of what we know."

These nouns made Stephen feel dizzy. Before coming to Nod, he was just a merchant selling some magic materials.The reason for coming with Adolf this time is also to discuss the details of the transaction between the alliance and Enoch, and to be responsible for recording the transportation route.

"And there are no clues about the puppet lady... The more time passes, the more dangerous her situation will be."

Hearing this, Hyde's whole body suddenly trembled. A spark of inspiration flashed through his consciousness, and he stood up from the elevated seat.

"Professor Adolf, where did you find that filthy blood on the way here?"

"What happened to a hill not fifteen miles from Noth?"

Hyde felt his voice tremble a little,

"I have fought against him. Alan Zimixi is extremely powerful, and the self-healing ability of the high-ranking filthy blood is also very good. He is not someone who can be killed by those weak monsters! There are people who seriously injured him Isn’t it possible that it’s the alien monster that captured the shadow, or is it at least related to it?”

"There shouldn't be many people who can reach this level of strength. There won't be any power that can compete with Enoch out of nowhere in the wilderness, right?"

Ling's eyes lit up and he added:

"If you moved so much and just patrolled around the city, how could that guy suddenly bump into such a powerful enemy? The only explanation is that the patrol route of the Enoch knights was exposed in advance, and they were ambushed. There are traitors colluding with creatures from different spaces! This can also explain the second clue that Ella divination!"

"But Alan Zimixi's position is the deputy commander of the Royal Guards of Enoch City. Who would know his marching route in advance?"

Hyde gritted his teeth and forced out a name.

"The commander of Enoch's Royal Guards, and the only member of the new party, Duncan Coleridge—even if it's not him himself, he will be someone related to him. The so-called sincerity of this person is likely to be all disguised, but in the When he communicated with Lucien, I could feel that there was nothing suspicious about his mental emotions at all, and that was the scariest part."

Adolf's expression remained unchanged and he commented,

"So far, what you have said is just a hypothesis without evidence. I am not denying your views, at least this line of thinking is very good."

"If you want to collect more evidence, there is a good opportunity right now. This is the news Stephen got. He is very talented in these areas."

Stephen waved his hand shyly,

"No, no, I just did some business with the nobles of Enoch that is beneficial to both parties. It is said that this time there is a conflict between Enoch's new party and the old nobles in the parliament. Your Excellency, Commander Duncan Coleridge, will be meeting in the next few days. Personally lead an army out of the city and escort the civilians and agents from other gathering places back to Enoch.”

Hyde hissed when he heard the words,

"I've talked about this with Mephisto before. We've always been curious about when Enoch will accept the residents of those gathering places, and even thought about letting us do it."

"But the queen has not taken any corresponding actions. Instead, she has been closing the city gates to reinforce the structure of Enoch City. Could the nobles in this city be civilians who want to give up all the gathering places?"

Ling shook his head and said,

"It hasn't reached that point yet. At least they still maintain the transportation route to and from the floating ice coast. It is impossible for them to turn against the alliance on this matter."

"But Duncan's actions now are obviously different from other nobles. Either he is really a rare good person among the dirty blood, or... he just wants to use this opportunity to get in touch with other things in the wilderness."

Adolf raised a wine glass the size of a small wooden barrel and drank a glass of Welsh stout completely.

"It's easy to verify this. We just need to find a way to follow him. Even if there is any danger in the wilderness, since the filthy vampire can crawl to the city alive, it shouldn't be difficult for us to work together to escape unscathed. "

Stephen pointed at himself tremblingly,

"Did you forget about me? I'm not a fighting wizard. I can't even fight a dangerous creature summoned by magic."

"Just stay in the city. It's safe here. Miss Famini and Mr. Fiennes will accompany you. If Ella comes back in the next few days, you can also convey the news to her."

Ling left the long table, ran to her and Ella's bedroom, retrieved a birdcage, and fed Beatrice the bat messenger a small steak.

Beatrice, who was a little sluggish because she couldn't get in touch with Ella for a long time, became excited again. It first circled around Lingfei and then hovered in front of the more familiar Adolf.

When Beatrice was still working for Howard Yusef, she often saw the big man in front of her.

"This is Ella's messenger Beatrice, you can use it to get in touch with us."

Ling explained.

Adolf stretched out his carrot-like thick fingers to let the courier hang upside down, teasing the little bat with a smile on his face.

"You're called Beatrice now? Not a bad name, at least more tasteful than the ones Howard used to take."

At this time, Hyde raised another concern of his,

"If we join this operation directly, Duncan will most likely change his original plan. If he joins me, he won't take three wizards to do anything suspicious."

Adolf smiled and said

"After Lucien returned to the alliance, he sorted out a piece of information on Enoch's upper-level dirty blood species. Allen was once a black wizard in the material world. Therefore, his power composition and fighting methods are completely instinctive and special compared to others. The dirty blood of magic is more like a heterogeneous wizard who combines magical power and dirty blood."

"Such a person may be a troublesome opponent in a direct battle, but in terms of magic level, he can only be regarded as a half-baked compared to us."

"So compared with the high-level dirty blood who completely relies on instinct and smell, it is easier for us to hide our whereabouts near him. Even if we are discovered, it doesn't matter. As enforcers, we have the obligation to protect more humans from surviving—— We all swore an oath in front of the crown and the flag, and this has nothing to do with Kleist's will."

Chapter 27 Opening with Death

"Are you really going to do that?"

Behind Duncan Coleridge, heavily made-up Sophia Nicholas hung up the metal buckle behind his armor and the new party's bat-wing insignia cape.

"At this time... you will not have the support of other parties, not even the Camarilla or even Her Majesty, to side with you on an issue like this."

"This may destroy everything we have accumulated over the years, and the new party's status will return to its original position. Even so, are you willing to accept it?"

Duncan reached back and took the soft little hand that was cooler than ever.

Unlike what outsiders think, Duncan respects Sophia's wishes very much, and nothing has actually happened between the two of them until today. If others see this stubborn persistence as a bit stupid and old-fashioned.

"What about you?"

"Will you be on my side?"

Duncan didn't turn his head, and he couldn't see the latter's expression from this angle, so he just asked calmly.

Sophia's heartbeat became a little faster than usual, and she said without changing her tone,

"The shawl is hung."

Then without much hesitation, she smiled and replied:

"Of course, I'll support you no matter what."

"that's enough."

The man nodded and strode away.

Watching Duncan leave, she suddenly felt a little tired, and she slid into the soft sofa.

In this dark world, Duncan's ideal is like a warm and bright fire.

If I could have met him earlier, when I had not yet felt hopeless, would everything have been different?

This soft and escape-like emotion only lasted for a moment before being suppressed.A candle in the dark night is very fragile and can be easily extinguished with just a little disturbance.It cannot and cannot light up the night. Only a more intense storm can tear the dark clouds apart.

"Only Niels-sama can do it..."

She couldn't help talking to herself.

"Only Lord Nils..."

I don't know how much time passed, and Sophia suddenly felt a little thirsty. She rang the bell, but the maid entered the room a little faster than expected.

"So you betrayed Duncan."

"—betrayed us too."

A voice rang out from the room, followed by a sharp and piercing killing intent!Victoria Miluthel, who was dressed as a maid, raised her head, her pupils shrinking into tiny cross stars.

Sophia's body froze suddenly, and the pressure from the upper-class bloodline made it very difficult for her to even move a finger!

Victoria didn't do anything immediately, but sat opposite her.It was a hint that things would not have turned out any differently whether she had struggled or not.

The hands of the wall clock on the wall were ticking, and Duncan should have been far away from here by the time count, and cold sweat rolled down Sophia's cheeks.

"Betrayal...what are you talking about, Miss Victoria."

"The only person who can grasp the route of Alan's march is you, besides Duncan. "Lilith" took action for this once, which was not in our original plan. "

Victoria's tone seemed to be stating a certain fact, which allowed no room for quibbles or refutation.

"I am here for our plan. Allen is a very powerful dirty blood noble. Killing him in advance can only do us good and no harm, right?"

Sophia's fingers gradually reached under the pillow of the sofa, where the pair of alchemical muskets that the envoy regarded as good intentions were placed.

Hearing this, Victoria raised her head and showed a rare smile.

"Could it be that you colluded with the devil in another space and let it attack the wizard messenger for our plan?"

Sophia's heart almost stopped beating at this moment, and her fingers had already touched the edge of the musket.

"When did you find out?"

Victoria tilted her head slightly, and grabbed a bright knife from the tray.

"......Just now."

She grabbed the blade with her left hand, then squeezed it and pulled it away.Viscous blood like fire boiled on the table knife. This is the power that Fitili lent her. It contains part of the characteristics of the sacred spear. The filthy blood that is stabbed in the heart or beheaded by it will lose its freedom. healing ability.

"You really betrayed us, you betrayed Miss Fittilly."

"The ones who really betrayed are you!"

Sophia's eyes turned dark red, and this power made her temporarily resist the suppression.This once very gentle woman became hysterical.
