Ann and David didn't know each other for a long time. If it was calculated in decades of life, it was probably … a trance time.
Although it had only been a short time, David's hatred for the vampire nobles was so strong.
…
When David opened his eyes again, the feeling he gave Ann was not as strong as before. She seemed to see something else in his eyes.
He didn't look like a revolutionary army anymore.
Ann was no stranger to the revolutionary army … People who wanted to resist and escape had always appeared in the big [Farm] of the clan. Most of them would die tragically in the hands of the vampires.
In order to prevent adults like Ann who were willing to serve the [Farm] from having the intention to resist, they were often [invited] to watch the revolutionary army's execution … and even the process of death.
Those people's eyes were full of hatred even when they died. It was a bone-deep hatred, a very pure hatred … Their eyes were still pure before they died.
Although they had grown up and experienced a lot, they were essentially no different from the children in the [Farm].
He was now more like those adults who were willing to serve as supervisors … and more like herself now.
Ann suddenly felt a chill — David was still standing in front of her, alive, but she felt that David had been destroyed.
It was just a short time … There weren't as many punishments as the vampires, nor was there a long time of torture.
"Are … are you okay?" Ann couldn't help but ask.
"I'm fine now." David's answer was out of Ann's expectation again, "Far better than before … It can't be better."
"Better … what's better?" Ann seemed to be a bit uncomfortable with David in front of her — although she had only known him for a short time.
"Try it and you'll understand." David smiled faintly at this time, "There are so many things here, you can try it even if you don't want to … Sell some things that will torture you like nightmares every day, and then exchange them for something that will make you stronger."
Ann stepped back in horror and bumped into something behind her. Then she leaned on David's face weakly — She saw such a strange smile on David's face.
"It seems that Sir should be satisfied with this transaction." Luoqiu showed a happy expression, as if he was satisfied with the customer's satisfaction once again.
Was this the face of a businessman?
Ann was not too sure … Merchant, to her, was a very foreign and distant profession. There were no merchants in the [Farm]. Everything the children here enjoyed was provided by the nobles, and they could live a carefree life until they reached adulthood.
"I couldn't be more satisfied."
While saying this, David was also retreating. He was still holding the Tang sword tightly … When he was about to reach the door of the storeroom, he stopped and said casually, "If I want to buy other things, can I sell more memories?"
"Is that so …" Luoqiu studied David and said directly, "After escaping from the Farm and joining the revolutionary army, you seem to have a lady that you love … but you have hidden this feeling in your heart. If you want to continue buying, you can use this admiration as an exchange item. "
"This is a bit difficult." David chuckled.
Ann felt that this smile was somewhat evil … A person, after losing a part of his memory, would really change into another person?
However, it was reasonable to say that he did not lose all his memories.
Was he going to continue the transaction … Ann waited expectantly for David's answer. She did not know why, but she hoped that David would agree.
Maybe it was out of curiosity.
"I still have things to do."
This was David's answer. After giving the answer, he directly opened the door and walked out without looking back, as if he had completely forgotten Ann's existence.
'He really left just like that …' Ann was suddenly at a loss because she was the only one left to face this mysterious young merchant.
She heard the ticking of the old pocket watch again … Tick tock, tick tock, tick tock.
"Is he going to deal with the nobles like this?" She hurriedly asked the question, trying to break the silence that had reappeared after David had left.
"Madam seems to be very concerned about this gentleman's action." Luoqiu smiled slightly, "Don't you want to get out of trouble?"
Ann shrugged and said, "I want to see if there is really nothing wrong with him … As a reference, should I buy something from you?"
Luo Qiu said, "Then have you finished your reference?"
"Not — yet!"
She said word by word, like a middle-aged woman who was standing in front of a new product booth and being sold a juicer by a salesman.
Boss Luo suddenly said, "Madam, do you still want to hire me?"
Ann said impatiently, "Didn't you already refuse?"
Boss Luo said indifferently, "But we can use another method … how about I hire you instead? As a reward, I can take you out of the Farm safely. "
"You …" Ann couldn't help opening her mouth and pointed at herself, "Hire me? What can I do for you? "
She didn't understand how an ordinary person like her could help him.
He opened his palm in front of Ann, and an exquisite ring appeared in the middle of his palm — Luoqiu gestured, Ann took the ring and looked at it carefully.
She found 10 gray crystals inlaid on the edge of the ring … Obviously, they weren't diamonds, and she had never heard of any gray gems.
"What's this?" Ann asked curiously.
Luoqiu said, "Put it on … Do you see the 10 gems on the ring? After accepting my employment, what you need to do is to light up these 10 gems. The gems will show a faint purple light. "
"How do I light them up?"
Ann asked directly … She seemed to be a little tempted.
Boss Luo smiled, "It's very simple. You just need to save those trapped in the [Mating Farm] and the [Slaughterhouse] after the [Mating Farm], that's all. The more humans you save, the faster the gems will light up and the number will increase. "
Ann was furious, throwing the ring away angrily, "Are you kidding me? You want me to save people? How can I save them? I can't even save myself! "
The boss was not angry. He snapped his fingers, and the ring that was thrown to the ground returned to his palm. He met Ann's eyes and said with a smile, "Of course, I won't let you save people like this … You can use anything you want here."
"What?" Ann was stunned.
Boss Luo picked up the old pocket watch and put it in his palm — He stretched out his hand to Ann again.
The ring and the pocket watch leaned against each other on the palm of his hand.
'Is this guy … serious?'
…
…
Ann suddenly thought of a phrase that she rarely used on a daily basis — obsessed.
What was a ghost? Is it the kind of ghost that vampires are? Who knew?
Vampire and ghost were two different words in English. She saw this word in the library: A travel book that was thrown in a corner and no one read it.
— Well, I'm looking forward to your success … Brave lady.
Just like that, the mysterious young merchant disappeared.
As for where he was going, Ann obviously had no idea. Perhaps, as he had said before, he was just following a secret tunnel dug by an unknown person, intending to find the thief who had stolen his item.
Would the thief be miserable after he was caught?
She couldn't help thinking about these things that had nothing to do with her — But she couldn't find any clues about the things the businessman left behind before he left.
The only thing that made Ann feel convenient was that the ring on her hand had a magical storage function — So many things were stuffed into the ring. When she wanted to use them, she only needed a thought.
Such convenience … With so many useful treasures, Ann didn't hesitate. After Boss Luo disappeared, she immediately lifted her skirt and walked to the entrance of the secret tunnel!
Was she stupid? With so many things, why did she need to ask someone to take her away?
— Right, once the ring left the range of the [Farm], it would lose its effect and become an ordinary ring.
The person had disappeared, but his voice suddenly rang in Ann's ears when she was about to jump … It was quite sudden.
This made the Dormitory Supervisor Candidate of Dormitory No. 7, who still maintained some of his original persona, so scared that he lost his footing and fell into the dark tunnel.
After a while, Ann crawled out from the secret tunnel again … There were some white spider webs on her hair.
She looked around suspiciously. She had a feeling that this mysterious guy hadn't really gone far, but was hiding in a corner to observe her.
After a while, she didn't hear his voice again.
Ann sat on the floor of the utility room alone, sniffing the musty smell of old things in the air. She carefully shook out the first thing from the ring: a pair of boots.
[Boots that can increase speed]
The moment the boots were in her hand, the name of the boots naturally appeared in Ann's mind — as well as how to use them.
Ann didn't wear them immediately. She was still thinking, muttering, "In the end, I still have to save people …"
She remembered that at the beginning, David also wanted her to save people.
She scratched her head and shook the ring on her finger. This time, a cloak fell out of the ring.
[Cloak that can make one invisible]
'So be it!'
She gritted her teeth and thought.
…
A group of high-ranking nobles of the clans gathered in a particularly luxurious building in the [Farm].
There were all kinds of buildings in the [Farm] — luxurious ones were not rare.
This kind of luxurious building was used to cultivate [Noble Lady], [Noble Young Master], and other [Character Settings]. Originally, there were several high-level [Crops] living here, but now it was temporarily requisitioned by these high-ranking nobles as a temporary residence.
"I can't believe that Buzzby dared to kill Boboki in front of so many people!" A noble said angrily.
His companions all agreed with him. At this time, they were criticizing Buzzby and criticizing the acting Grand Duke's irresponsibility and the fact that he easily transferred the clan's authority and looked down on the precious clan's authority.
"We can't let Buzzby take charge of the clan's authority like this! What right does he have?! "Another noble snorted," After all, he is just a guy with an unknown background! "
"Everyone, compared to Buzzby's behavior, don't you think that Bailegan's behavior is more unreasonable?" Another high-ranking noble knocked on the table at this time.
He attracted the attention of all the high-ranking nobles — as a high-ranking noble, he obviously had a lot of prestige in the circle of high-ranking nobles in the entire clan.
"Marquis Guda, what do you think?"
He … Marquis Guda sneered, "As the acting Grand Duke, he actually left at the critical moment. He even casually handed over the Grand Duke's token and condoned his subordinates to kill the high-ranking nobles! He even condoned his subordinates to change the supply rules … I think that Bailegan, as the acting Grand Duke, didn't fulfill his duty at all! So, I propose … to use the privilege of the high-ranking nobles! "
The faces of the participants changed slightly at this time.
The high-ranking nobles had many privileges — but there was only one thing that Marquis Guda would solemnly mention in this kind of occasion.
That was, when more than 70% of the high-ranking nobles agreed … they could wake up the sleeping Grand Duke of the clan!
However, no matter what the reason was, waking up the Grand Duke of the clan from his sleep would definitely make the Grand Duke unhappy — there were many such calls in history. In the records, more than half of the people who called were severely punished by the Grand Duke when he woke up.
Marquis Guda looked around at the nobles present at this time and said seriously, "It's not long before the next [Sacred Blood] ceremony. The Grand Duke is about to wake up. If it's a little earlier, the Grand Duke won't be unhappy … Moreover, this time, the awakening will be carried out by me personally. Even if there is any punishment, I will bear it alone. Everyone just needs to agree! "
"Marquis Guda, as you said, it's not long before the [Sacred Blood] ceremony. The Grand Duke will naturally wake up at that time …" A noble shook his head at this time and said, "It's not a little bit of time. Why should we take this risk?"
Marquis Guda looked at the speaker expressionlessly.
Indeed, it was not long before the Grand Duke would naturally wake up … For vampires with long lives, they naturally wouldn't care about a short one and a half months.
But … it was true that the Grand Duke would wake up before the [Sacred Blood] ceremony, but wouldn't Bailegan come back earlier?
This group of pampered people who don't know how to use their brains … Trash!
