"However, in this way, your identity will be exposed. I'm afraid Killer Whale Harbor won't be able to stay any longer. "Wei Fu sighed softly.
Taylor smiled and said, "After so many years of business, I expected such a day to come. Therefore, he had already prepared several other identities and could not stay in Killer Whale Harbor. The empire is so big, so where can't we go? "
"No matter what, you have sacrificed more than half of your family business."
"Elder Wei Fu, that's serious. If it weren't for the support of the Naga Clan, how could I have done this family business? Moreover, if it weren't for the Naga Clan, I would have died at the hands of pirates or in the stomach of a fish. "
Wei Fu didn't say anything else and let Taylor go down to rest.
At this moment, the castle's "Blood Dusk" was also brightly lit. Lights illuminated every corner of the castle. This castle was not famous for its elegance. Everywhere in the castle, one could see pointed arrow mounds, gloomy shooting fortresses, all sorts of spikes that were either for decorative considerations or to strengthen their defenses, as well as circles of scarlet Vermillion Blood Stones embedded in the dark black walls, decorating the castle as a synonym for terror.
Looking from the night sky, the entire Blood Castle looked like the huge head of a demon, and the two balconies on the left and right of the castle were the eyes of the demon. Especially when the lights in the hall they connected to lit up, it was like the eyes of a demon that flickered with hellfire. At this moment, the hall connected to the two balconies was lit up. This was a dark hall. There were almost no decorations in the hall. One could see the exposed cornerstone, with a primitive flavor.
On both sides of the wall and in the middle of the hall, there were strange candlesticks shaped like palms. White candles flickered on the candlesticks. Nearly two hundred candles lit up the hall. Under the wall in the middle of the hall, there was a dark red armor on each side, and a huge portrait in the middle. The portrait was of a handsome man dressed in the Count's luxurious clothes. The painter's skills were extremely exquisite, causing the characters in the painting to be exceptionally lifelike. That faintly discernible smile that hung at the corner of his mouth carried a trace of coldness. And those eyes. If someone were to look at the eyes of the characters in the painting from a close distance, they would see a scene of mountains of corpses and seas of blood reflected in those eyes.
This was Eric, or rather, Eric when he was young. After all, this portrait had been placed here for twenty years.
On the main seat in the hall, someone was leaning against the dark red velvet backrest, one hand supporting his chin as he stared at the two people below. Eric was the only one in the entire Blood Castle who had the qualifications to sit here. Eric was much older than he was when he was young in the portrait. Time had left deep traces on his face, and the handsomeness of his youth had now precipitated into a kind of dignity. Only that pair of eyes remained, the corners of those eyes seemed to be surging with?? Tie? Anger? Ghost Lever? Healthy lips? What? Desolate and strict end Qu Xue Shun mediocre kin Yong Ji Set to move Zinc Yu Drooping Muddy Frame
"So you're going to tell me. Your Nightwalker Specter has sent five killers, and with the two of you, you still can't take down Taylor, who's only protected by a Sea Dragon Knight? "Eric said softly, his voice carrying a faint dignity. If one were to judge from his voice, one would think that he was a dignified and righteous person with a high position.
"I'm sorry, Count, we messed up." The one who spoke was the petite woman who was fighting with the Sea Dragon Knight on the carriage. She lowered her head and said, "But if it weren't for the two people who came out halfway, everything would have gone smoothly."
"Which two?"
"A man and a woman, my lord. But they are unfamiliar faces. They have probably just arrived at Killer Whale Harbor. "
"It's really interesting to ruin my business as soon as I arrived at Killer Whale Harbor."
"What's even more interesting is that some of the steel cannons have been chasing them for most of the night."
"Oh? Who is it? "
The burly man who was repelled by Belmore raised his head and said, "A fellow named Dick. It seems that the two of them had some conflict with Dick during the day. Oh, this Dick is the captain of one of your guards under the Blood Shark Merchant Guild. "
"Very good, looks like you've made some preparations. But it looks like you're not prepared enough. Otherwise, that fellow named Dick would have to be questioned by me here. Am I right? "
The woman and the burly man looked at each other and lowered their heads.
Suddenly, a gentle breeze blew, and the steel cannon somehow flew out horizontally, crashing into the wall before crashing back. He fell to the ground and spat out a mouthful of blood. Eric didn't even look at the burly man as if nothing had happened. He reached out and pulled the woman's head up. Then he lowered his head until their noses were almost touching. Eric said, "You Lian, tomorrow morning. I want to see that Dick here, and find me everyone who has come into contact with those two. I want to know the identities of those two. Since they are related to the Naga Clan, their identities must be extraordinary. "
"If you can't do it …" The count reached out and grabbed the woman's left chest. With a gentle pinch, the armor protecting her chest peeled off. The woman named You Lian revealed a painful expression, but she didn't dare to shout out loud. She could only nod her head repeatedly.
Eric let go of her and kicked her in the chest, kicking her out. Then he clapped his hands and said, "Scram."
The steel cannon hurriedly ran over to help You Lian up, and the two of them left without saying a word. Eric sat back in his chair and flicked his fingers a few times on the armrest beside him. He said to the empty hall, "Haven't you heard from Carlo yet?"
Two white arms stretched out from behind the chair. They were obviously a pair of women's hands. The hands landed on Eric's shoulders and swam to his cheeks. The fingers painted in dark red armor gently stroked the Count's face. The candlelight swayed, and in the light of the flames, a woman quietly appeared behind the Count. Her skin was sickly pale, but she deliberately made her eyeshadow extremely thick, and her lips were painted bright vermilion. She lowered her head and said to Eric, "Apart from Young Master's encounter with the Naga Royal Clan, we only found out that his last destination was Ark Harbor."
"Ark Harbor? Oh, it's that cowardly territory called the shame of the Earl, Ou Ban? What is Carlo doing there? "
The enchanting woman behind him whispered, "It seems to have something to do with the person who released the Nagas on Pearl Island. Our Snake Belle has already checked. That person's name is Allen. He's a small baron who has just joined Ou Ban. "
"A little baron?" A faint smile appeared on Eric's face. "Am I old, Marlene? Now a little baron can interfere in my affairs, and Oban has accepted him. Very well, looks like I have to take a chance to talk to this useless count. "
"Are you going to find Young Master Carlo yourself?"
Eric shook his head. "I don't have the time now. Taylor actually bribed Josh and exchanged a fake account book for the real one. Although I still found out, I couldn't stop him immediately. Now that the account book has fallen into the hands of the Naga Clan, those mutants can hand it over to the royal family, so that Lord Mason will be blamed. And if Lord Mason is unhappy, I won't be happy. "
"What are you going to do?"
Eric said lightly, "Keep them in Killer Whale Harbor forever, of course."
The woman behind the chair was shocked and said, "It's fine to kill Taylor, but there are His Highness Naga and a few elders hiding in his mansion. If we kill them, we will attract the interference of the royal family. "
"As long as we do it cleanly, we can excuse ourselves afterwards. And if His Highness Naga dies here, it will be easier for Lord Mason. Although the royal family won't let me off easily, with Lord Mason around, I don't think it will be a big deal. The important thing is that I can use this opportunity to build a relationship with the four dukes of the empire. This will be beneficial to our future development. "
Hearing what he said, Marlene could only nod and say, "Then I'll get someone to prepare. However, His Highness, I probably don't have anyone under me who can threaten her."
"It doesn't matter. I'll greet her myself."
"You want to make a move?" Marlene frowned, but said helplessly, "That's right. Apart from you, no one can defeat Her Highness."
"Alright, go and prepare. Hurry up and do it tomorrow night at the latest. "
The next day, several carriages drove into Blood Castle. The carriage opened and some people were chased out. Among them were Dick, Bahrain, and the bartender who had contact with Belmore. Apart from Bahrain, everyone else looked nervous. Steel cannon walked over and waved his hand. "Bring them in. My lord's Blood Fang Hall is waiting for them."
A group of soldiers at the rear raised their muskets and pushed them forward, pressing their backs against them.
In the hall, Eric was still sitting in his seat, as if he hadn't left since last night. He supported his chin with one hand and swept his gaze coldly across the crowd in the hall before finally landing on Bahrain. Eric said, "Old Bahrain, you're here too."
Bahrain immediately walked out and saluted the count, "Dear Earl Eric, good morning."
"I'm not in a good mood at all. Old Bahrain, you should know why you're here, right?"
"Well, I heard that you're investigating a man and a woman?"
"That's right, it looks like you've had contact with them. Tell me, what did you say to them? "
The Bahraini priest's expression was a little ugly. He had no choice but to recount his conversation with Belmore yesterday in detail. Then he said, "Count, please forgive me. I didn't know they were going to ruin your business. If I had known, I would have informed the guards to arrest them all. "
"Old Bahrain, I've already said that if you don't control your mouth, something will happen one day. Something is bound to happen one day. It seems that today has verified my words. So, how much did he pay you? "
The priest spat out a finger and said, "A hundred gold coins."
"A hundred gold coins?" Eric smiled and said, "A hundred gold coins will make you say everything you shouldn't say. Someone, give Old Bahrain a thousand gold coins."
The woman named Marlene walked out and placed a deerskin bag filled with gold coins in Eric's hand. Eric then threw the bag of gold coins in front of Bahrain. "Here, are you satisfied?"
Old Bahrain looked at Eric in horror and said, "Count, what do you mean?"
"Obviously, I'll give you money. Don't you like gold coins, old fellow? Now, I'll give them to you. But you can't take them back with your hands. " Eric gradually smiled, "Steel cannon, let this old fellow swallow these gold coins. He likes gold coins so much, I'll let these things be buried with him."
The cannon replied and strode over. Old Bahrain shrieked: "You can't say that, my lord Count. I'm Dillis too. You can't kill your own people! "
The blood in Eric's eyes became even more intense. "You have the nerve to say that you're Dillis. You're just a lowly bitch. You know better than I do what you've done with Dillis' surname all these years. I've never bothered with you because you're just a small fry. But now that your mouth has ruined my big business, it won't be so cheap. "
The cannon had already pressed Old Bahrain down and grabbed a handful of gold coins and sent them to his mouth. Old Bahrain bit his lips tightly and looked at Eric with the cannon. The latter nodded, and the burly man immediately laughed sinisterly, clenched his fist, and knocked on Old Bahrain's mouth. The old priest screamed miserably, opened his mouth, and his teeth fell to the ground. The steel cannon opened his mouth in satisfaction and stuffed the gold coins into his mouth.
Not long after, Old Bahrain's mouth was already filled with gold coins. The cannon continued. In the end, he was gagged by the gold coin and suffocated to death.
Eric waved his hand and the cannon dragged the old priest's corpse down. Along the way, gold coins continued to roll out of the priest's mouth and fall in front of the others.
Dick's entire body trembled, and some of them had even fainted. The Bahraini priests were Dillis's people, and they, who were inferior to ants in the eyes of the count, could imagine what would happen to them.
"Alright, tell me everything you said and did when you came into contact with the man and woman. Don't waste my time. "Eric said indifferently.
It took Eric an entire morning to listen to their confessions. Among them, the bartender and Dick had the closest contact with them. From what they said, the two of them had only arrived at Killer Whale Harbor yesterday, and they had come with a certain purpose. Otherwise, he wouldn't have asked the bartender where he could buy information as soon as he arrived. Combined with Bahrain's confession, they were undoubtedly here for the Naga Clan.
This was strange. Apart from slave merchants, who else was so interested in the Naga Clan? It was obvious that the two of them were not slave merchants, so they belonged to another faction.
Finally, Eric swept his gaze across them. His gaze fell on the bartender and he said, "If it weren't for you, they wouldn't have come to Bahrain. Look, not only did you ruin my business, you also killed a Dillis. Since you like to talk so much, pull out your tongue. "
"As for you" Eric looked at Dick, "You're an idiot. They used you to attract the interference of the city guards. Can't you see that they aren't ordinary people? What's the use of keeping a pair of eyes? Dig them out for me. "
When Dick and the bartender heard this, they were so scared that they couldn't say anything.
