Moon Witch, embark on the journey!

Claire hurried over and picked up Luna who had fallen to the ground. She gently took off a few pieces of the charred cloak from Luna's body and put her ear close to the girl's chest.

The world seemed to have gone quiet, with only the faint sound of heartbeats.

"There's still a heartbeat..."

Claire collapsed to the ground, her skirt stained with dust. But her hands were still tightly holding the girl in her arms, without shaking at all.

"Potions, potions. Captain..."

William reminded from the side.

He didn't dare to say that he could have used his mental power to find out that Luna was still alive. As a result, Claire was stunned for a long time before using such a primitive method to confirm it, which was purely scaring herself.

But their relationship is indeed very good. Before Luna joined, the captain was capable and resolute.

Claire hurriedly took out the healing potion and poured it into her mouth without hesitation. The unconscious girl in her arms soon regained her breath.

Soon, a chubby figure came here quickly. Wizard Feller wiped the sweat from his forehead and looked at the mess. His face was extremely gloomy:

"What just happened?! How dare you attack the place where I'm stationed!"

Seeing that those young masters and young ladies who he couldn't afford to offend were still alive, he breathed a sigh of relief. He whispered:

"Take her to my place for treatment. I will personally guard outside this time."

110. Incoming

"Well......"

Luna gradually woke up, and before she opened her eyes, she felt pain all over her body, as if several bones were broken.

No, several of them were broken.

"I never expected that the first time I was seriously injured would be at the hands of an apprentice."

"Luna!"

A girl screamed beside her, with a hoarse voice. The first person Luna saw was Claire, who was guarding the bed. The black-haired girl looked nervous and happy.

"Ah, sorry to have made you worry. I'm fine."

Luna struggled to get up from the bed, but Claire held her down and said in a reproachful tone:

"Don't move, you're not fully recovered yet!"

"I think it's OK..."

In fact, Luna used her mental power to look inside her body as soon as she woke up. Except for a few cracks on her bones, her important organs were basically in place, and there was no big problem.

"Your condition was much worse at the beginning. You have only gotten better after using potions and Mr. Filler's healing pool. Take good care of your injuries and don't move around for a while!"

Faced with Claire's slightly red and swollen eyes, Luna had no choice but to lie down obediently.

She recalled what happened before.

At the moment of the explosion, she released the Strengthening Shield spell and activated the Frozen Heart defense. However, because she was too close to the center of the explosion, it was no less than being directly exposed to the core of a first-level spell. Both layers of defense were instantly evaporated.

But at least it blocked most of the power, and the remaining power acted on the robe made by Luna herself.

The cloak that Luna often wears is of course also an alchemical item. Although its main function is to block the breath, it also has considerable defensive capabilities, blocking the flames and weakening the impact force a lot.

It was a pity that she was attacked during the day, otherwise she would have suffered only minor injuries at most.

"Fortunately, there is no disfigurement."

Thanks to Luna wrapping herself up tightly, the flames did not burn her skin directly, but the shock wave still partially affected her body, causing her serious injuries in an instant.

Even if the person is really disfigured or even has limbs amputated, as long as he doesn't die on the spot, wizards have plenty of ways to deal with him.

"I'm glad you're awake. We are now in Mr. Filler's own workshop, and he is guarding outside."

Luna was a little surprised that a formal wizard actually let his apprentice live in his room and went to guard the door himself. It seemed that he was really determined to cling to the thighs of these elite apprentices.

"I feel relieved now that you're awake. This is only temporary, and I'm afraid we'll have to go to war again soon."

Claire told Luna about the current situation.

The apprentice who committed suicide was obviously under mental control. The more the person resisted similar spells, the harder it was to succeed. So if an apprentice could be forced to commit suicide, it was basically certain that the noble blood clan was behind it.

"We are now living in the official wizard's workshop, and the wizard himself is guarding us. Ordinary insidious means will not work. I am worried that... the vampires will directly attack us."

Claire looked a little worried. They had already sent out a signal for help. But the official wizards were all very busy, or had their own families to protect. The probability of there being a free wizard nearby was very low.

William's elder is sure to come over, but it will take until tomorrow morning or at least late tonight.

Their most important task at the moment is to survive these ten or so hours.

"Claire, you don't have to accompany me. Just go and get anything you need ready. I'll be fine here."

Claire was a little hesitant at first, but she quickly left the room at Luna's urging. After seeing Luna wake up, Claire had regained her sanity and knew that it was useless for her to stay here.

"Take care of yourself. Call me if you need anything."

Luna smiled and nodded, and after Claire left the room, her already fair cheeks turned very pale, and she took a few breaths:

"Hiss...it hurts so much——"

In fact, when Luna first noticed something was wrong, if she had stepped back a few steps and left the center of the explosion, the damage she received would have been much less, at least not as painful as it is now.

But then, she suddenly realized something.

Only she, who was closest and recognized the alchemical bomb the first time, could react. By the time she warned him, it was too late. Even if the other three people in the room had any trump cards, it would be difficult for them to use them in such a short time.

So Luna didn't take a step back at that time.

"Tsk tsk, the consequences of being a hero are really serious. If Claire wasn't behind this, I wouldn't..."

Luna lay on the bed and muttered quietly, but she couldn't say this while she was still there.

......

For several apprentices, the ideal situation is that the enemy does not dare to attack at all or at least waits until night to act.

But after Philer found and controlled the two apprentices in the family who had been bewitched, the vampires seemed to have no intention of making any more tricks.

boom!

A pitch-black sphere fell into the city and then spread out instantly. The dark energy killed all the civilians within a few hundred meters.

A tall and handsome vampire rushed directly into the sky above the city and shouted murderously:

“Filer! Hand over the prisoner in your hands immediately! Otherwise, today will be the day your territory and family will be destroyed!”

Soon after, another shorter, older vampire appeared, also exuding the powerful aura of a noble vampire, and stood shoulder to shoulder with the previous one in mid-air.

"Filer, we are old rivals. I didn't expect you to dare to provoke a pure-blood adult. I advise you to do it immediately. Otherwise, I won't see you again in the future-"

At the Fatira Family's residence in the city center, the fat male wizard also flew into the sky and confronted the two vampires from a distance. He cursed:

"You guys want me to obey you? Come and fight me if you can! Otherwise, stay away from me!"

The two Baron-level vampires made Feller, who was mediocre among the official wizards, feel a lot of pressure. He didn't know the first one, but the second one was an old rival. The two sides had fought many times.

"Old man! You can't beat me, so you call for help? Come and fight me in single combat if you can!"

The old vampire ignored his provocation and instead smiled with sympathy:

"This pure-blood master is not so easy to talk to. I advise you to give up."

"If you don't dare to fight me alone, then get out of here! Or you can try to attack me!"

Feiler relied on the defensive magic array set up by the family's residence, and was not afraid of the two vampires joining forces. He simply ignored them and returned to the family.

Everyone knows that breaking into a spellcaster's lair is a very dangerous act. Even if you are much stronger than them, it is easy to fail.

"Then just stay there and watch."

Suddenly, the young pure-blood said softly, and his voice spread across most of the city. He took out a tube of potion from his pocket.

111. Secret Treasure

Philer sat in the family with an extremely gloomy expression.

"Grandfather! That vampire is outside..."

An apprentice from the Fatila family came to report, his face was pale and his voice was trembling:

"Ten thousand people have died."

"I know!"

Feller's tone was very gloomy. He had the spiritual power of a wizard, and he could see what was happening in the city without leaving home.

The real first-level wizard formation was only set up near the family residence, as the entire city was too large. The outer city area only had a simple large-scale warning wizard formation.

Not long ago, the vampire took out the potion and combined it with some kind of spell. It immediately generated a huge poisonous cloud, which destroyed all life wherever it passed. In a short period of time, it killed tens of thousands of people in the city and turned a large area of ​​the city into a dead zone.

"Sir, this is not a solution. If there are only a few apprentices..."

"Shut up! Do you know who they are? Even without counting the families behind them, they will be four official wizards in the future! Four!!"

Philer looked at the younger generation in the family who reported the news, and the fat on his angry face began to tremble.

The consequences of handing over the four elite apprentices of the Dark Ring to the vampires on their own territory are simply unimaginable.

Seeing Feller's attitude, another apprentice of the family immediately jumped out and said:

"Even if the vampires kill all the civilians outside, we will be fine as long as we stay in the family's residence. We can make friends with several future official wizards. Isn't it a great deal?!"

"I am too stupid! I failed to understand my grandfather's foresight..."

The anger on Feller's face seemed to have dissipated a lot. He glanced at the people below. After this incident, the people who were panicking just now were now much calmer.

Then the play would be worthwhile.

However, it looked like the vampire would not give up. They would have to fight with real swords and guns in the end.

......

“These people died because of us.”

William stood on the roof of a small building in the Fatila family, watching the large black poisonous cloud raging in the city. It easily covered an entire block, and wherever the poisonous cloud passed, many desperate cries could be heard faintly.

"I didn't expect that he would dare to use such a heavy hand. He is really crazy."

It is difficult for spellcasters to fight without affecting civilians. But this is different from directly killing people on a large scale, and both sides will generally consciously reduce such actions.

On the one hand, civilians are one of the spoils of war for the victorious side. On the other hand, after the massacre, they will inevitably be the focus of the enemy.

Anyone who dares to carry out a massacre in the territory of the Dark Ring, not to mention the official wizards, even the advanced wizards will be hunted down and killed.

That is to say, the blood clan is now attacking on a large scale, and they can't spare any effort for a while. But they will definitely be liquidated afterwards. Many blood clans will not make it too ugly.

"I thought I didn't care that much about civilians."

Standing on the roof, William muttered to himself expressionlessly:

"But seeing so many of my kind die in front of me, I still can't help but feel angry."

He turned his head and asked helplessly:

"Don't you have anything to say?"

The petite girl next to her was also sitting on the roof. She spoke softly as if she had just woken up from a dream:

"...It's a life-and-death fight...Hasn't the fight started yet? I can't wait any longer."

"I really don't have much to say to you. By the way, where is our captain? Is he still in Luna's room?"

"..."

Not long after, after almost turning this place into a dead city, the two vampire barons finally couldn't hold back anymore.

The dark poisonous cloud roared towards the Fatira family’s residence, and was then blocked outside by a huge rising elemental light shield.

A huge energy ball condensed with a huge amount of dark elements followed closely and smashed into the protective barrier, causing ripples on it like water waves, and it seemed that it could not hold on.

"So strong!"

Philer, who was in charge of the family, couldn't help but blurt out that the difference in strength between the old vampire and himself was not much.
