In the world of Miria, although astrological magic is niche, it is not uncommon.
Many mages will study the astrology to some extent, and at least they can perform certain spell divination through divination to improve the success rate of magic research.
Looking at the room full of astrological magic books, it is obvious that the owner of the study is quite obsessed with astrological magic.
And he is obsessed with astrological magic, and is called "Lord Earl" by the Blood Demon Cultists...
The directionality is quite clear.
Especially when Charlotte picked up the astrology device and saw the Boulder family emblem on it...
"Tulip...Count."
Charlotte frowned.
Count Tulip is famous in the Principality of Boulder.
However, this was not because of his status as the heir to the original principality, but because of his two embarrassing incidents.
One is that shortly after he was appointed heir and went to the Tulip fiefdom, within three months he aroused the anger of the people in the territory and was driven back by riots.
The other thing was that he was addicted to astrological magic and had no concern for political affairs. He even ruined the political marriage that the Duke of Bold was looking for for him. This made the Duke furious and almost broke his leg...
…
It can be said that although Count Tulip has a noble status, he has almost become a synonym for laughing stock in the aristocratic circle of Boulder, and his presence is not high.
Even Charlotte only had an impression of him because he was his cousin and they often interacted with each other when they were children.
However, such a person is actually a collaborator of the Blood Demon Order?
camouflage?
Has he been pretending?
Charlotte was really surprised.
However, after thinking deeply, she felt a sudden realization...
Charlotte knew that she was colluding with the Blood Demon Order and secretly assassinated her nobles in order to obtain the Castel Territory.
And if we consider it from the perspective of blood inheritance, if she really dies and the Castel Territory is taken back by the Duke's Palace, the first heir is actually not the Duke, but the Earl of Tulip.
Because he is Aunt Charlotte's son, because he is the closest blood relative of the Castel family!
Everyone knows this.
But no one thought that in the unlikely event that the earldom would eventually fall into the hands of Earl Tulip.
Even if he inherits it, it is likely that it will be taken back by the old Duke soon like the Tulip Earldom.
Because he behaved like a waste.
But now, Charlotte suddenly discovered that this count, who was obsessed with astrology and irresponsible in the eyes of the public, might have been pretending all along!
waste?
If he secretly brings together the nobles of the principality through the Drunken Dream Salon, if he secretly has contacts with the Blood Demon Order and the high priest, then... he is not a waste!
"It turned out to be Count Tulip... It seems that the entire Boulder aristocratic circle was deceived by him. I am afraid that even the Duke was deceived by him. He has been hiding his clumsiness."
Sebastian was also quite surprised, with an expression of surprise.
"It should be him. Only with his status, he can obtain the kingdom's standard hand crossbow and frame the Duke's palace... No, or to be more precise, it should be framed by the Duke."
Charlotte pondered.
"It seems that the Bold family is not as united as the outside world thinks..."
Sebastian narrowed his eyes.
"Master, what should we do next? Ambush here and wait for him to come back?"
he asked respectfully.
Charlotte sensed the remaining time for her true ancestor to be liberated.
During the period when she controlled the blood servant, the liberation time of the True Ancestor dropped by 0.1 seconds from 58.5 seconds.
Obviously, although she has not completely liberated the True Ancestor, consuming the divine power of blood to control the blood servants outside the door will still reduce the time limit for the True Ancestor's liberation.
After scanning the study room with her senses and confirming that there were no fragments of holy scriptures here, Charlotte thought for a while and said:
"No, if you can run away, the monk can't run away from the temple. The conspiracy of the Blood Demon Order is more important."
"We continue to pursue the secrets of the Blood Demon Order."
After confirming the identity of the mastermind behind Zuimeng Salon, the two people retreated from the study room.
This raid went more smoothly than Charlotte imagined. I have to say... when you have strong enough power, many things that seemed difficult in the past will become easier.
Even if the powerful power obtained is temporary.
Returning to the corridor, more than twenty blood servants saluted Charlotte respectfully.
And when the girl walked out of the study, she once again saw the little girl in a white dress flash past and disappear in the other direction of the corridor.
Charlotte's heart moved slightly.
"Let's go there and have a look."
Following the figure of the mysterious little girl, Charlotte came to the other end of the corridor.
This should be right below the Zuimeng Salon Hall. What comes into view is a stone door engraved with various complicated magic patterns.
As soon as she arrived here, Charlotte felt an indescribable sense of gloominess, as if there were waves of cold air spreading through the gaps in the stone door.
Sebastian took a step forward, looked at the magic lines on the stone door, and quickly raised his eyebrows:
"Master, this is a sealed door. There should be something sealed behind it, and... there is a warning pattern on the seal. If you enter without permission, you may alert the people behind the scenes."
"I'm ashamed... I don't have in-depth research on sealing magic. Perhaps, I still need your help to unlock the seal and the early warning pattern."
Sebastian said respectfully.
But I don’t know how to seal magic. In fact, I only know low-level majesty and resurrection of the dead now...
Charlotte complained in her heart.
However, just because she can't do it, it doesn't mean that others can't.
"Open this door and don't disturb the warning pattern."
She ordered the other two forbidden blood servants who followed.
They were the ones standing guard in front of the stone gate just now.
After listening to the girl's words, the two forbidden blood servants of the first level of Fanxing quickly trembled and fell into the struggle of the soul contract again.
But in the end, Charlotte's power was superior.
"yes."
After trembling for a while, they bowed their heads respectfully, then took a step forward, took out the key from their arms, and inserted it into the stone door.
The next second, the magic lines on the stone door suddenly lit up, emitting a deep brilliance.
With a heart-wrenching creaking sound, the stone door suddenly opened, and the overwhelming smell of blood and evil aura suddenly spewed out, causing both Sebas and Charlotte to change their colors.
And when the stone door was completely opened, the two of them could see clearly what was inside.
This is an underground cave.
The dome of the cave is painted with complex magical lines and various evil and depraved patterns.
They spread from all sides into the cave.
The ground was covered with countless bones.
In the center of the cave, there is a huge blood pool, exuding a strong smell of blood.
The blood pool was designed to look like an eye, which was extremely weird and evil.
"It's the Eye of the Devil! This is the symbol of the Blood Demon Archduke Abaddon!"
Sebastian was slightly solemn.
Blood Demon Archduke Abaddon?
Charlotte's heart moved slightly.
Her eyes quickly fell on the pool of blood.
In the center of the blood pool, bones were piled up to form the pupil of the "eye", and in the center of the pupil, there was a black coffin, exuding a heart-stopping aura.
I don't know why, but looking at the coffin, Charlotte felt a strong sense of uneasiness in her heart.
Charlotte looked around, trying to find the little girl again, but found that she had lost track of her.
After thinking for a while, the girl withdrew her gaze and looked at the blood servant behind her again.
There was light in her eyes:
"Tell me, what exactly is the Blood Demon Order planning?"
After listening to the girl's order, the blood servants trembled again.
This time, their shaking was more violent than the first time.
They had ferocious expressions on their faces, and the whites of their eyes rolled back, while Charlotte felt that their souls were fluctuating violently, and began an unprecedented crazy struggle.
Obviously, Charlotte's question directly touched their deepest taboo.
Charlotte exerted a little force to slightly increase the output of the divine power of blood.
The next second, the blood servants trembled even more.
Not only that, Charlotte even sensed that the blood servant contract in their souls began to glow faintly, and it seemed that their souls would be torn into pieces at any moment.
She felt a chill in her heart and quickly stopped questioning.
It is obvious that the soul contracts of these blood servants are even built around keeping the secrets here. If Charlotte forces the answer, even if she gets the result, the blood demon high priest behind the scenes will definitely be alarmed.
Charlotte didn't want to alarm the high priest unless it was absolutely necessary.
Looking away from the blood servant, Charlotte focused her gaze on the dead bones in the cave.
The keen spiritual sense of the vampires and the unique perception of the dark way allowed her to clearly sense that there were still a large number of lost souls lingering here.
Thinking of the various phantoms she had just seen in the hall, her heart moved slightly and she had some ideas.
I saw Charlotte coming to countless withered bones, gently closing her eyes, and spreading her consciousness to cover the withered bones.
Then, communicate with the divine power of blood again.
In Sebastian's awed gaze, a trace of ancient and vast aura slowly rose from Charlotte's body and disappeared in an instant.
A crimson light bloomed with the girl as the center, and soon enveloped the entire cave.
In an instant, Charlotte felt a huge memory mixed with overwhelming hatred, fear and despair pouring into her mind...
The world before her eyes suddenly shattered.
