Even if you become a witch, you have to eat oranges

Hilam in the basement clenched her fists, with a look of pain and struggle on her face, and her breath suddenly weakened to the extreme.

She covered her abdomen, where large streams of turbid blood quickly flowed out, dyeing her robe red.

"It's painful, it's completely beyond your ability...Leave it to me, just let me do it. These are just small problems you are facing now."

Hilam's expression suddenly became indifferent, as if he said this casually, but was soon replaced by ferociousness:

"Shut up! There is no way I will give in to you!"

"You will die if you continue like this. Your health has not improved at all these days, has it? This powerful and strange power gives me a headache. It is impossible for you to recover on your own."

"I told you...shut up!"

On the one hand, there was physical pain and weakness, and on the other hand, there was the battle with another consciousness in his mind. Hilem's whole body twitched, a large amount of energy in his body escaped, and his pupils dilated.

"It's useless. Once you let go of the restrictions, you will no longer be able to suppress me... Sooner or later you will beg me again..."

After a fight, the consciousness no longer appeared, but the wound on his body did not improve at all. The wound hidden under the clothes was still a terrifying big hole.

Hilem stood up with a pale face and staggered to the door. She paused and took a deep breath.

After a while, Hilem, who seemed normal on the surface, walked out of the basement and came to the ruins of the castle on the ground.

This ancient castle located in the most prosperous city nearby is now mostly destroyed. The executioners under Hilam are guarding the outside and are not allowed to approach at will.

Walking through the deserted ruins, Hilem quickly approached the devil's body squatting in the center of the castle. It stayed there quietly at this time, like a machine waiting for orders.

This devil has a terrifying appearance and cruel behavior. It is the deepest fear and nightmare of all residents of this city today.

But it gave Hilem a great sense of security, which was her last guarantee for her weak strength. Hunting down the rebels and storming Rampton City at such a tense time was exactly Hilem's bluff.

This still worked, even if Elena told Hela her guess and relayed it to the rebel organization. No one from the 'Bloodwing Twilight' cadres dared to come.

The Duke is sleeping and recuperating. With this legendary devil body around, no one dares to test Hilam's current situation until there is more news.

After Silam paused for a moment, he moved forward.

According to the plan, the last piece of the puzzle is coming.

Volume 21, Third Coffin: [-]. Plan and Arrival

The enchanting woman with long red hair paced back and forth in the deserted castle, and her eyes stopped at the gate of the fortress for a long time.

Da da……

While Hilem was waiting anxiously, the sound of horse hooves was heard in the distance, and a carriage pulled by a monster horse crossed the gate and came to her.

"Lord God Envoy, the goods have been brought!"

The driver driving the carriage stopped it and quickly came to Hilem and saluted her.

"Why is it later than scheduled?"

Silam asked casually. Although she seemed to be reproaching, the fire and pleasure in her eyes showed that her excitement outweighed the anxiety of waiting.

The driver raised his head, revealing a colorful face painted with paint. The clown did not have a funny expression at this time, but said with a hint of fear:

"The vampires outside want to inspect the goods. After I showed you your token, they verified it for a long time before letting it go."

"Hmph, they are all useless, but I am very serious about this kind of thing..."

Hilam no longer struggled with this. She quickly walked to the back of the carriage where the goods were loaded and asked:

"Did everything arrive in good condition? You haven't seen it, right..."

The first half of the sentence is still a normal inquiry, but the second half is so cold that just listening to it makes people feel like they have fallen into an ice cave.

"My lord, absolutely not. I swear in the name of God..."

'Joker' assured anxiously, as a senior member of the Hades cult, this was considered a poisonous oath.

"hope so."

……

'Joker' left.Hilem still stayed in front of the carriage, she seemed to be talking to herself:

"Mikalu, come out. I have something to discuss with you."

She waited, and suddenly her whole temperament changed, becoming indifferent and mysterious:

"I'm not Mikalu, but it doesn't matter if you want to call me that... What's wrong, don't you hate me very much? Are you going to beg me now?"

This calm voice suddenly became interested, and she said:

"Become one with me. In the face of absolute power, all your worries will be worthless."

"I said, absolutely impossible!" Hilem's expression changed again, becoming angry and aggressive. She took another deep breath:

"I want to cooperate with you this time. This is something that will be beneficial to both of us."

"Oh? Talk about it."

"You know the 'Gap of the Dead' nearby."

"Of course, during the period when I...Mikaru ruled, this was also a dangerous situation that could not be cleared away." The indifferent voice said with a little emotion. A realm witch-level inheritor of the Red is still unable to do so in this plane. A place of mastery.

But in fact, there are not many such places.

"The 'Skeleton Lord' is an undead whose strength is close to that of the 'Realm Witch'. It is not a vampire and is not suppressed by authority. There are also some similar beings who joined forces. At that time, they just sealed the matter and thought about dealing with it later."

There was no successor after that. The previous lord, 'Red Witch' Mikalu, was severely wounded and dying by the legendary priest of the Holy See, and died soon after.

"Yes, that's it. I'm going to do it."

"...Are you crazy?" The indifferent voice was a little surprised, waiting for her answer with interest.

Even if the injury is completely healed now, if Mikalu's consciousness is still in control, it will not be an opponent due to the current strength of this body.

"And how are you going to draw it out?"

"Blood sacrifice." Hilem's expression was cold and terrifying. She looked at this huge city and pointed at the aborigines who were blocked in the city after the executioners arrived:

"The undead are very sensitive to death. If enough lives are lost, it will definitely attract its attention."

"Then, are you going to wait for it to slap you to death?"

"Isn't there still that guy?" Hillem pointed at the huge devil's body in the ruins of the castle and said:

"This legendary body will definitely interest the Skeleton Monarch, and it will not be simply killed."

Immediately afterwards, Hilam pointed to the carriage in front of him, with loads of goods stuffed behind it:

"There are materials for the teleportation circle here. I will set up this magic circle nearby, and then manipulate the body of Hades to lure it into the range of the magic circle and transfer it to a distance."

The indifferent voice came out of Xilem's body again. She obviously didn't care about Xilem's plan and said without any fluctuation:

"Even if it teleports away, how far can it move with all its strength? Don't you think you can kill it so easily?"

"Just be trapped for a while."

Hilam was full of confidence. She looked at the seemingly endless canyon not far away and finally expressed her purpose:

"Although this skeleton monarch is an undead spirit, he has a strong desire for the body. In his territory, there is a Mysterious Fruit of Life and Death, which can be used to reshape the body."

"Although it's not fully mature yet, it's enough to treat my injuries."

The calm voice was silent for a moment and then asked:

"What if I don't want to help you?"

Hilam snorted and looked down at his abdomen. It seemed that he could see the terrifying sound hole through the clothes and the strange power that could not be expelled:

"I have tried every possible method, but in the end I can only delay it a little. Now we two share the same body."

"Do you want to die again? Micahru?!"

But the voice coming from the body seems to always be so calm, without too many ups and downs:

"I'm different from you. It doesn't matter if I die... But this time I can cooperate with you."

"In the end, it's not that I don't want to die."

"Whatever you think, call me when the plan starts...I lost a lot of strength last time."

The indifferent voice stopped talking and seemed to have really fallen asleep again.

Seeing that the plan was initially successful, the corners of Hilam's mouth curled up slightly.

……

After Elena and the other three arrived at Rampton City, they unexpectedly discovered that the place seemed to maintain a superficial order, and there was no war as they had imagined.

Only the ruined castle in the center of the forbidden inner city and the devil's body on the side proved that a massacre had occurred here.

"Why don't we pretend to go to the city first and have a look!"

After observing outside for a while, Ka Lei was the first to make an opinion.

There is almost no useful information available on the periphery. We can only know that almost no vampires have entered the city, but many have fled outside.

Therefore, the three of them are particularly eye-catching. If they enter directly, they will definitely be stopped. If they are recognized then, they will be in trouble.

"I'll do it! I can do this!"

Lini suddenly shouted excitedly. She took out a few bottles of something that was probably magic potion, introduced it to them, and then applied it for a while.

There were some changes in the faces of the three people, and they soon prepared to go to the city to take a look.

Volume 22, third coffin: [-]. Intelligence screening

Rampton City is divided into three areas: core, inner city and outer city.

The control in the outer city is much looser now, and the three of them easily sneaked in.In fact, as a city covering a huge area, the executioners who took over the city simply did not have enough manpower to guard every place.

Those guarding vampires who don't even have titles are not worth mentioning to Elena.Using her official witch-level mental power, she easily deceived the guards by creating a little illusion.

Although it was easy to enter the outer city, as soon as she looked inside, Elena knew that what was coming next would be difficult.

The inner city is surrounded by tall walls, with only a few exits here and there.I also knew that there must be a noble blood clan guard there, maybe even a strong person at the viscount level.

Elena took Ka Lei and Lini for a walk around the outer city - this was a place where a large number of poor and weak vampires gathered together. The pedestrians along the way looked bad and haggard.

I also know that the many events that happened in this city during this period will inevitably affect every vampire here.

After searching all the way, I came to a bar and just got closer.They smelled the smell of alcohol and some vomit coming from inside, which made the three of them very uncomfortable.

"Are we really going in..."

Lini slightly tugged at the corner of Elena's clothes from behind. Although she didn't look back, Elena could guess that she must be full of reluctance now.

Ka Lei was a little better and said nothing, but also frowned.

"Only I want to go in." As soon as Elena finished speaking, Lini, who had been a little reluctant just now, grabbed her tightly and regretted:

"I don't think I can't bear it, so let me follow suit."

"Don't make trouble. It's too weird and conspicuous for three children to enter a bar." Although the vampires have no laws against underage drinking, even nobles have developed a taste for alcohol since childhood.But this is a bar in the slums. Children from the aristocracy will not come, and children from the poor will not come.

"It's a little more reasonable for me to be the only one. Besides, it's hard for me to protect you in such a messy and small environment."

Almost every once in a while, Lini would cling to Elena every day after not seeing her, and follow her in all sorts of coquettish and cute ways.

"Don't disturb Elena, let's wait outside."

Ka Lei was also used to Lini's symptoms. She grabbed the little girl in the latter's resentful eyes, moved a little distance to the side and waved to Elena.

Elena also nodded.She was quite worried that Ka Lei would become agitated when she was near here, but now she seems to be very calm, which is a rare good quality among girls of this age.

Stepping into the door of the tavern is like entering another world, with boiling noises and all kinds of strange smells.

Elena walked towards the bar without looking away, seemingly unconcerned but actually listening to the words of the drunkards all the way, hoping to take the opportunity to learn more about the situation in the city.

"...How long will it take! How long will it take for the blockade to be lifted...hiccup...my goods can't even get out..."

A drunk Vampire burped and complained. Such complaints seemed to be commonplace. Others continued to drink from themselves, but only one responded to him:

"Ha! Want to leave? It would be nice to be alive...I heard, I heard that all the gentlemen in the inner city are about to be killed, so only us worthless guys...can still live well..."

These words resonated with many drunkards, and they all responded in a nondescript manner:

"Well, the noble lady I've fallen in love with must have suffered too. I hope nothing happens to her...I heard that the executioners are all women..."

"Hey, if nothing happens, it won't be your turn!"
