The magic inheritance of Magic Shooters was incomplete. This was not a problem that could be solved in a day or two. Fortunately, A Qi was very young.
The old siren, Isis, was more than 400 years old and still lived well. She was only 43 years old. Obviously, she still had a long life ahead of her.
However, the most important thing now was to improve their combat power in the dragon-slaying battle.
After careful analysis, Liszt said, "Although you can't improve your combat power in a short time without the inheritance of Magic Shooters, and you can't pose much of a threat to the Dragon Knight, it's a good choice to support. In the dragon-slaying battle, you'll be in charge of restraining it, and I'll fight the Dragon Knight head-on. "
"Yes, A Qi understands."
Immediately, the two discussed some ways to attack together. If the main battlefield was on the sea, Liszt and A Qi fighting side by side would be very terrifying. A Qi, who was invincible, could easily dodge the Dragon Knight's attacks and cast water magic at will.
If the main battlefield was on land, A Qi would need to protect herself and cast water magic to support Liszt.
"It's best to set the battlefield on the sea. Only then can we maximize our combat power and ensure the result of the dragon-slaying battle … There should be some time. We have to practice more in the future and strive to reach a level of tacit understanding."
"Yes!"
… …
Liszt thought there was still time. The hidden danger was only a hidden danger after all. It was not in front of him yet.
However, when he and A Qi returned to the territory the next day, they immediately received a report from Mary Daybreak, "My Lord, something big has happened!"
As she spoke, the pureblood vampire had a worried expression on her face.
"What is it?"
"Peggy and Wimbledon have returned from Iron Shoe Island. They found the familiar aura of many vampires on the island, and those vampires also found their aura. According to their judgment, it's very likely that the Black Knight family has sent out their higher-ups, or even all the vampires! "
The Black Knight family had a total of 54 vampires, including purebloods and mixed-bloods.
Among them, there were 12 purebloods and 42 purebloods.
Now that the two purebloods, Tubert and Fammur, were dead, and Mary and the other six half-breeds had sided with Liszt, this meant that the Black Knight family still had ten purebloods and thirty-five half-breeds.
"Summon Peggy and Wimbledon," Liszt said calmly.
After a while.
Peggy and Wimbledon arrived and told them what they saw on Iron Hoof Island in detail. Not long after they arrived at Oxhorn City, they sensed the presence of pureblood vampires in the city.
"The heart of a pureblood can expand its influence on Blood Magic and detect the location of the hybrid vampire through the feedback of Blood Magic. However, this is a two-way effect. The hybrid can also sense the location of the pureblood vampire," Mary explained.
"So when Peggy and Wimbledon sensed the pureblood, it sensed Peggy and Wimbledon?"
"Yes, my lord."
"How many purebloods have you sensed?"
"We sensed the presence of three purebloods in total. Three half-breeds acting together, this rarely happens in the Black Knight family. Moreover, we sensed three presences in Oxhorn City. It is conceivable that there should be purebloods in other cities on Oxhorn Island, "Peggy replied.
Wimbledon added, "It is also possible that the three purebloods wanted to leave Oxhorn City by ship and go to other islands. However, Peggy and I did not dare to stay in Oxhorn City after we were discovered, so we snuck into a large ship heading to the outer islands and hid inside. Only by stopping the blood flow in our bodies could we avoid being targeted by the purebloods."
Liszt nodded slightly and asked, "Do you think the Black Knight family is here for Tubert and Fammur?"
"My lord, it is very likely that the Black Knight family is here for us."
Liszt could not deny this.
However, he felt that this was not the case. The Black Knight family should know his strength. After all, he was a powerful "ancient warrior inheritance" that defeated a Domain Knight. With the strength of the purebloods of the Black Knight family, it would be difficult to gain any advantage from Liszt. After all, this was the Grand Duchy of Sapphire.
He ordered, "Pay close attention to Coral Island and Black Horse Island, especially Mary. You have to turn on the influence of Blood Magic at any time. Once you find any new vampires, report to me immediately. Don't monitor the mad Habben, just capture him."
"As you wish, my lord!"
… …
The capture of the mad Habben went smoothly. The hybrid had no chance to escape under the net of Mary and other blood servants.
His heart was not in his body.
However, he could not resist Mary's interrogation and poured out all he knew.
"I did intend to sneak into Black Horse Island to investigate Lord Liszt, but I did not come with malice. Lady Mary, I did not know that you have followed Lord Liszt. Believe me, this is a misunderstanding." Mad Habben felt the pureblood aura of Mary and was surprised.
"You did not come with malice, did you come with kindness?"
"To be precise, it was a kindness. I originally received the task of contacting several vampires in my family, uh, your previous superior, Lord Tubert … Halfway through, I received an order from my superior, Lord Poseidon, to inspect Black Horse Island." He did not know that Tubert was dead before that.
However, seeing that Mary had become a pureblood, he should have guessed it.
Of the two pureblood vampires killed by Liszt, only Famur and the Dark Knight family, who were stationed at the Trapped Dragon Mountain iron mine, should know that they were killed by him. The Black Knight family had no idea whether Tubert, who had gone to Iron Hoof Island to investigate the goat gathering, was dead or alive. After all, Liszt had captured all the purebloods and mixed-bloods in one fell swoop, and no information had been leaked.
Mary continued to interrogate, "Lurking in Black Horse Island, is this kindness?"
"You may not know, but the family has never had the idea of avenging Famours, even his sister. I don't know the reason, but I heard that if possible, the patriarch hopes to make friends with this Lord Liszt. "
"Make friends?"
"Yes, you should have sent someone to monitor me, so you can also see that I am not in a hurry to complete the task, and have been enjoying the food. Going to Black Horse Island is not a task for me, it's just a trip. "What the mad Habben said seemed to be true.
Mary's eyes flashed with a trace of confusion, but it did not prevent her from continuing to interrogate, "So what is the purpose of the Black Knight family?"
"Well, I don't know. You know that we are just running errands for many tasks. The secrets are in the hands of the pureblood."
"So how many people from the family came?"
"Fat Pig Peek and I followed Lord Poseidon here. We are the first batch. I don't know how many people from the family came later."
At the end of the interrogation, Mad Habben was imprisoned.
Mary hurriedly reported to Liszt.
After listening to the report, Liszt frowned, "The patriarch of the Black Knight family wants to make friends with me? They know that I killed the pureblood Famours, but instead of revenge, they want to make friends with me? "It sounded like a joke, which was not in line with common sense.
"My lord, Mad Habben should not be lying, but he also heard that the patriarch of the Black Knight family wanted to make friends with you. He can't be sure if it's true or not."
"But why does the patriarch of the Black Knight family want to make friends with me? If I remember correctly, the patriarch is called Rommel Black Knight, a powerful vampire comparable to the top Knight." Liszt shook his head and said, but suddenly, a flash of inspiration.
The content of the smoke mission this time had a choice of sides.
At first, he thought that he would have to face the Grand Duke's coercion to make a choice. Now, it seemed that it had something to do with Alonso Celeste.
"Could it be that the smoke mission wants me to make a choice between Alonso and the Grand Duke?"
He thought silently.
It seemed that from the beginning, Alonso was an enemy in the Battle of Dragon Slaying because he killed his vampire servant and robbed his iron mine. However, the content that was ignored was that both vampires and iron ore were part of the war, and it was inevitable that there would be losses on the battlefield.
For a dragon knight, such a loss didn't seem too serious. At the very least, compared to having a top ancient warrior as a follower, such a loss was within an acceptable range.
"Alonso can't be thinking of recruiting me as a follower, right?"
