Chapter 208 -58- Pretend to surrender and fight back in the future!
Chapter 208 -58- Pretend to surrender and fight back later!
Count's Palace of Castres, Meditation Room.
Agnes, who had changed into a brand new maid uniform, fiddled with the lace skirt unaccustomedly.
She obviously has a cute face, but at this moment, she has a dull and stiff expression. It makes people suspect that she will jump up at any time and pull off the black and white headdress with the Castel coat of arms on her head and throw it away.
Then he stepped hard on the ground a few times.
The middle-aged knight La Hire, who also changed into a Castel-style knight uniform but still stubbornly hung the Willett coat of arms on his chest, looked at his eldest lady and hesitated to speak.
"What's wrong? Rahel, do you have anything to say?"
Agnes glanced at him and said.
The middle-aged knight scratched his head:
"No, it's nothing, it's just... you just rejected Count Castel's solicitation so righteously. I thought you really planned to continue to fight her, but I didn't expect... Well, you are so quick
I changed my mind."
Agnes:……
The girl's expression was slightly unnatural, she pursed her lips and said:
"I just suddenly figured out that even if I refuse her solicitation, I will just continue to be locked up by her, and as long as I am locked up by her, I will never be able to get ahead..."
"Rather than do this, why not pretend to surrender first..."
"Charlotte de Castel can activate the encryption crystal of the Ness clan. She definitely has a big secret in her body, and even... we don't know whether she is the real Charlotte."
"Since we can't defeat this enemy whose strength is much higher than ours and who has secrets in her body, we might as well pretend to join her and stay dormant for the time being, while looking for her weaknesses and accumulating our own strength."
"We can't fight her now, but I don't believe she has any flaws! As long as we spend enough time, we will definitely find her secret!"
"When we dig out her secrets, when we find her weaknesses, when we wait for the right time... we will take action again and defeat her!"
"Just like how we endured the humiliation and endured the heavy burden against Earl Hall!"
"At that time, I must let her taste the suffering that our Willett family has experienced!"
Agnes said through gritted teeth.
The girl looked excited, but the middle-aged knight beside her looked thoughtful and hesitated to speak.
Agnes glanced at him:
"Rahel, is there anything else you want to say?"
Rahel hesitated for a moment, considered his words and said:
"Miss, I'm thinking about a question."
"Count Castel is different from Earl Hall. She has many followers and even owns a large and wealthy territory. She also knows that we once killed Earl Hall. She also looks more mature than Earl Hall.
Calm, at least without the arrogance of a high-ranking vampire like Count Hall..."
"In this case, even if she accepts our 'surrender', she will definitely never let down her guard."
"I'm afraid our every move is still under her surveillance..."
"Not only that, after seeing her this time, I always feel that her aura seems to be stronger than when I first saw her. I doubt whether she has some way to improve her strength."
"I'm a little worried...I'm worried that as time goes by, the gap between us and her will not shorten, but will gradually widen. If nothing else, just as time goes by and we completely control the territory, we will fight against her.
The difficulty will be doubled.”
"In this case, can we really find a chance to counterattack?"
After listening to the middle-aged knight's words, Agnes clenched her fists slightly, her expression uncertain.
After a moment, she said:
"I don't believe that there are people in this world who are flawless, and I don't believe that her power and influence will continue to grow endlessly..."
"The Vampire Clan has always been known for its difficulty in improving its strength, and it will definitely fall into a deep sleep when it is promoted. She is just a star now, not even a silver moon. We will definitely have a chance in the future!"
"Not to mention that we are already a vampire. The most indispensable thing for vampires is time. We can afford to wait and spend it. If it doesn't work for one month, it will be two months. If it doesn't work for two months, it will be three months. If it doesn't work for three months, it will be one month. Years, two years, three years..."
"If we keep waiting like this, we can always wait until she falls into a deep sleep and find her flaws!"
Agnes became more determined as she spoke, and her expression changed from hesitant at the beginning to determined at the end, as if she was convincing herself.
However, the middle-aged knight La Hire's expression still showed hesitation.
He was silent for a long time and sighed:
"Miss...Actually, if I think about it carefully, her proposal is not completely unacceptable to us."
"Our purpose from the beginning has been to revitalize Willett. If she can really help us revive the family, reconciliation with Castel is actually an option."
"You are right, we are a blood clan, and we can indeed afford to wait, but our separated relatives cannot. Maybe they still remember Willett's name now, but one generation later, two generations later, Slowly, I will always forget that by that time, even Willett’s bloodline may be cut off..."
"There is no unsolvable grudge between nobles. Although we were defeated because the Castel family did not act according to the plan, it was His Majesty the King who deprived us of our titles in the end."
"Although the Duke died in the First Roman Battle, it was not entirely due to the defeat on the frontal battlefield, but rather he was attacked by the Fallen Star Legend during his retreat..."
"Rather than always thinking about revenge, maybe it would be better for us to let go of everything and focus all our experiences on reviving the family."
After hearing Rahel's words, Agnes's expression changed immediately.
She hammered the table angrily and said:
"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"
"Castle is Willett's enemy. It is absolutely impossible for us to reconcile, absolutely not!"
"Rahel, don't say such words again! Remember! Even if we surrender temporarily, it is still dormant! The purpose of enduring humiliation today is to turn defeat into victory in the future!"
"Rebuilding the family is as important as revenge!"
Looking at the girl's unswerving expression, the middle-aged knight sighed:
"Okay, I'll listen to you."
"Let's not mention this for now, Rahel, Count Castel suddenly wants to recruit us, what do you think is going on?"
Agnes waved her hand and asked.
Rahel thought for a while and said:
"Since she mentioned pretending to be Earl Hall, it may have something to do with the summons crystal. When I just came out of the cell, I saw many nobles who were imprisoned, as well as several consuls of North Port. I'm afraid it was after we were imprisoned. In the past few days since I got up, something happened to Castel."
Agnes nodded:
"I think so."
After thinking for a moment, she said:
"The Ness clan's plan at the banquet must have failed. Not only that, the young count of Castells may have used the banquet to uncover many of their people. Maybe... this time it will be like the previous times.
, the Ness clan has activated the communication crystal in advance."
Speaking of this, Agnes's eyes flashed:
"Rahiel."
"I'm here, miss."
"Count Castel still doesn't know that you and I can activate the communication crystal on our own. In this case, if she wants us to disguise ourselves as Count Hall, we will tell her that both of us must participate."
"Are we all going to participate?"
"Yes, as usual, you are responsible for pretending to be Earl Hall, and I am responsible for maintaining the operation of the crystal..."
Rahel's heart moved slightly:
"what do you mean……"
Agnes narrowed her eyes:
"Charlotte dares to let us disguise our identities. I'm afraid there is a way to prevent us from revealing secrets to the Ness clan during the meeting..."
"Although I don't know what kind of method she will use to monitor us, the working principle of the communication crystal is spiritual remote connection. Even if she knew that you, disguised as Earl Hall, would be a participant in the meeting, she would never have thought of the crystal.
The operator can also open spiritual channels privately and communicate secretly!"
Rahel's heart skipped a beat:
"Do you want to contact the Ness clan?"
Agnes nodded:
"Yes, the enemy of my enemy is my friend. Although I don't think those insidious blood descendants of Fallen Star Kingdom are worthy of trust, we have the same purpose in dealing with Castel."
"I believe that they will not refuse a 'friend' who can secretly provide them with information about Castel."
Speaking, Agnes smiled and said:
"Rahel, you are worried that the gap between Count Castel and us will widen as time goes by, but what if we are holding you back?"
Looking at his young lady's slightly shining eyes, Rahel hesitated to speak, and finally swallowed what he wanted to say.
To be honest, after his previous experiences, he was not optimistic about his lady's plan.
He always felt that the Earls of Castells were very evil, and maybe there was really some way to completely eliminate the possibility of them having private contact with the Ness Blood Clan.
At this moment, the door of the meditation room was pushed open with a creak, and Charlotte, dressed in meditation clothes, walked in gracefully.
The girl and the knight immediately fell silent.
Charlotte looked at the two people who had changed into maid uniforms and knight uniforms with a smile, and nodded with satisfaction:
"Not bad, it fits well."
Looking at her eyes as if admiring a fun toy, Agnes pursed her lips and her fists became hard.
"Your Excellency, I wonder why you brought us here?"
Rahel stood in front of Agnes and asked in a deep voice.
Charlotte did not show off, but took out the flashing communication crystal:
"The messenger crystal of the Ness clan has responded. They seem to be summoning people for a meeting in advance. I want to go to the meeting venue with you to have a look."
One...together?
The girl and the knight were stunned at the same time.
"You... also want to operate the communication crystal?"
Agnes couldn't help but ask.
"Me? No, of course it's up to you to operate it. I'm just a bystander."
Charlotte shook her head.
Bystander?
Agnes was even more confused.
She looked at Rahel and said:
"I can help you disguise your identity, but... in order to ensure the effect, we need one person to operate the crystal and one person to disguise the identity as before!"
"Can."
Charlotte nodded.
So simple?
Agnes couldn't help but glance at Charlotte.
Until now, Charlotte has not shown what methods she will use to prevent the two from leaking secrets while disguising their identities. This did not reassure the girl, but made her hesitate.
You know, Charlotte didn't even sign a contract with them!
However, now that the matter has come to this, Agnes has nothing to hesitate about.
She made eye contact with Rahel, nodded secretly, stretched out her hand and placed it on the communication crystal, and began to inject magic power to activate it.
The familiar power began to spread from the crystal ball, which was a verification of the power of blood.
Gradually, the crystal ball bloomed with a dreamy shimmer, and Agnes felt that her spiritual power was connected to the crystal ball.
The connection was successful!
Agnes cheered up.
"It has been activated. Lahire is ready to join the club."
She glanced at Charlotte covertly and said, while secretly preparing to open a secret spiritual channel.
However, at this moment, Charlotte interrupted their actions:
"Wait a mininute."
She smiled slightly and closed her eyes.
And when she opened her eyes again, her blue eyes had turned into red gold.
A terrifying spiritual power suddenly burst out from her body, and in Agnes' horrified eyes, the crimson light swallowed up the entire world in an instant.
Agnes felt as if she was in a trance, and the world was spinning for a moment.
Immediately afterwards, the sky collapsed and the earth shattered, solemn black stone walls rose from the ground, and layers of steps continued to rise in the crimson mist...
In an instant, Agnes found herself in a majestic castle, while Charlotte was sitting on a majestic Throne of Blood, and her regular clothes turned into a dress painted with thorns and roses.
She wears a gorgeous black dress with patterns, her blond hair has turned to silver, and even her height seems to be a little taller.
The communication crystal was floating in mid-air, but it looked a bit illusory, not like an entity, but more like a projection, while Agnes and Rahel still kept touching the crystal.
Feeling the spiritual power that seemed to be everywhere around her, Agnes opened her eyes wide with an expression full of disbelief:
Spiritual world!
This is the spiritual world!
She was actually pulled into the spiritual world by the other party!
Damn it, who is this little count, and why can he directly pull people's consciousness into his own spiritual world?!
This...isn't this something only legends can do?!
No, no, no... just being able to build such a real spiritual world is already outrageous!
She, she, she...is she really just a star?!
What a private contact with the Ness clan!
Looking at Charlotte, who was sitting on the throne with a half-smiling smile, Agnès looked wonderful.
As the daughter of a legendary strongman, she is no stranger to the knowledge of the spiritual world.
In the spiritual world, any small move by an outsider will be invisible, and even life and death are in the hands of the master...
In other words, she and Rahel are now being observed by Charlotte 360 degrees without blind spots, and the other party has the ability to disconnect them from the communication crystal at any time.
"Okay, now... you can start disguising your identity and entering the Ness clan's meeting place."
Charlotte changed into a comfortable position and smiled slightly.
