A legendary blood descendant takes action, interrogation and other matters are naturally easy to capture.
Albrecht didn't waste much effort, and Count Colimo, who was completely frightened, poured out everything he knew.
"I see, are you planning to use Roman's blood in Count Castel to activate the Roman family's contract, and then obtain Romanus' artifact..."
Albrecht raised his eyebrows slightly.
He glanced at Count Colimo with an inexplicable expression, his expression was quite strange:
"I don't know whether you are too brave or too unlucky to have your mind set on that adult..."
"But, even if you don't mention that person's power... what do you think, such an aboveboard kidnapping, do you really think that other nobles are blind?"
After hearing Albrecht's inquiry, Count Colimo swallowed his saliva and answered tremblingly:
"We... we planned to blame the blood descendants within Falling Star for this kidnapping, and then... use the attitude of a savior to 'rescue' His Excellency Count Castells."
"The blood descendants of Luo Xing are too cunning and have infiltrated all the high-level officials of the kingdom. Even some members of the royal family have become their people..."
"Crescent Diocese has too much time to take care of itself, and the Royal Court Church of Luo Xing has long been ineffective. We can only use this method to fight against the blood descendants."
After hearing Count Colimo's words, Albrecht was doubly surprised:
"It turns out to be a plan that kills three birds with one stone. If it goes well, you will be able to obtain the artifact, secure your inheritance rights, attack the blood descendants of Fallen Star, and have the opportunity to gain the friendship of the North and even the alliance of Castel.
…”
"Tsk tsk, did the Duke named Conte come up with this plan? He is really a smart man!"
Saying this, without waiting for Count Colimo to answer, Albrecht said to himself:
"No wonder the Ness clan has been making moves recently. It turns out they are planning to return to the stars in advance. It seems... they have also begun to prepare for the Holy Day."
"What kind of benefits did these guys... promise to get that person's acquiescence or even support?"
Albrecht was thoughtful.
It's true that blood descendants are more angry than blood descendants.
The Blood Demon Order he belonged to was driven around like dogs by the True Ancestor in the Crescent Kingdom. He was reported and banned. Even he, the third Dark Apostle, was beaten up and forced to harvest blood.
servant……
The Ness clan is great there.
Even though he doesn’t know the identity of His Majesty the True Ancestor, he can live in peace with His Majesty the True Ancestor and even gain support!
It’s true that after Li Dapu, the main force that infiltrated Castel was the Ness clan; back then, they were also the Ness clan when they fell into trouble together!
I have to say that Albrecht was really a little sour at this moment.
Looking at the uncertain-looking "girl" and the guards and attendants who had turned into puppets around her, Count Colimo shuddered coldly, and then said bravely:
"Your Excellency... Your Excellency! I have told you everything I know! We have no intention of harming Your Excellency Castel, but we have to take this step to avoid the division of the Roman family..."
"Okay, to be honest, I don't care at all what tricks you are doing, whether it is kidnapping Earl of Castel, killing Earl of Castel, or dealing with the blood descendants of Ness to stabilize the kingship of Luo Xing
...If you can really do it, maybe I will be quite happy and even cheer for you, but unfortunately...you are just some bugs who don't know your own abilities and only add to your laughter."
Albrecht shook his head.
After saying that, he glanced lazily at the shivering Earl Colimo, with a trace of disdain flashing in his eyes:
"Human nobles can only achieve so much."
After he finished speaking, a black light flashed in his hand, and a tentacle-like black line spread out, rushing towards Count Colimo.
Looking at the black thread that was exactly the same as the other "puppet", Count Colimo's expression changed drastically, and he cried in fear:
"No! Don't kill me! Please don't kill me! I'm willing to do anything! I'm willing to do anything!"
Albrecht didn't even look at him, letting the black thread wrap around him, and Count Colimo's eyes quickly lost their sparkle and became no different from anyone else's.
Albrecht then owed his body.
He waved slightly, and Count Colimo and others stiffened their bodies and saluted him.
"Kill you? Haha, I do want to kill you. I've been in a bad mood lately, and I've long wanted to kill some dumb guys to vent my anger."
"If the worry hadn't really affected True Ancestor's plan, you would all have turned into my living corpses!"
Albrecht glanced at the "puppet" around him and said viciously.
As he spoke, he drank all the black tea in the cup and touched his chin:
"Okay, now that the conspiracy has been revealed, what should we do next...?"
"Should we continue to disguise our identities, or control the puppets to destroy the Roman family's plans, or...should we use their tricks to play with them?"
Thinking about the possible fun, Albrecht became interested.
However, he quickly reacted, was slightly stunned, and mocked himself with a complicated expression:
"Hey, I'm really used to my identity as a blood servant. I know how to think about what to do next..."
"If you do too much, you will make a mistake. If you don't do anything, it's good. What to do is what the old man needs to consider. I'd better not join in the fun."
With that said, Albrecht summoned the contracted shadow demon that Charlotte left for him.
The black magic power spread, and the shadow demon's figure slowly emerged, letting out a low roar at him.
Albrecht frowned and snorted coldly, and black magic also spread from his body, which was even more viscous and terrifying than the Shadow Demon.
Feeling the homologous terrifying aura on his body, the shadow demon immediately stopped. It quickly huddled up in a ball weakly and pitifully, and lay on the ground. Its illusory and distorted face seemed to be flattering, like a taiwan wagging its tail.
Dee.
"This useless thing is really embarrassing to the devil!"
Albrecht glanced at it with disgust, and suddenly lost interest in letting this guy run errands.
"Forget it, this bitch doesn't look reliable at first glance, and his IQ isn't that great either. It's better to directly apply to talk to His Majesty the True Ancestor."
"The ceremony hasn't started yet, so the old man's spiritual dialogue should not be closed yet..."
"Let him worry about what to do. No matter what the outcome is, I can't be blamed!"
Albrecht quickly made a decision.
As a master of shirking responsibility in the Blood Demon Order, he has always been good at this.
I saw him throwing the Shadow Demon back into a different space in disgust, then communicating with the Blood Servant mark in his soul, putting on a flattering smile, and seeking spiritual dialogue from Thorns and Roses...
…
After getting on the carriage prepared by Yurst, Charlotte came to the Roman Square from another direction.
However, she did not enter the square, but entered the underground through a secret entrance.
This should be the underground drainage system of the city of Rohan.
The city of Rohan, like Lutetia, is an ancient city of the old Unet Empire. These drainage networks are leftover from that era when royal power was at its peak and the climate was hot and rainy.
Of course, like Lutetia, most of Rohan's drainage system has been abandoned except for the necessary parts that are still functioning.
This place... has long become a place where monsters, desperadoes and even cults are active.
The same is true for the underground area beneath the Roman Forum where the ceremony was held. Traces of erosion over time can be seen everywhere.
However, perhaps because it is close to the ceremony location, the security here is much tighter, with guards guarding everywhere.
When Charlotte and others entered, they were quickly blocked by guards:
"Stop! The front is a forbidden area, and no one else is allowed to enter!"
Yurst glanced at the guard and showed his noble badge:
"I am Count Yurst, responsible for the security of this ceremony."
Seeing the badge, the guards immediately put away their weapons and saluted him respectfully:
"It turns out to be your lord, Earl. Please come in, lord."
After saying that, they looked at Charlotte next to Yurst, looking a little confused.
"This is my personal maid and my assistant, assisting me in checking the protective magic formation."
Earl Jurst said proudly.
After hearing his words, the guards suddenly stood in awe:
"It turns out to be Master Mage. Master Mage, please come in."
In this way, Yurst led Charlotte into the underground area directly under the square.
Charlotte noticed that this place was different from the outside. There was a rather complicated array on the ground.
She was no newbie in magic, so she quickly relied on her already rich knowledge of magic to recognize that this should be the protective magic formation base covering the entire Roman Square.
After thinking for a while, she probably realized how the Ness clan arranged it.
Obviously, Yurst had successfully gained the trust of the Roman royal family and became not only a facilitator of the ceremony, but also the defender of the magic circle in the ceremonial square.
I am afraid that the Ness clan was able to prepare to "hack" into the dark room for the ancestor recognition ceremony directly under the square because of this loophole.
As if to verify Charlotte's guess, Yurst took her to a hidden cave entrance after a while:
"Your Excellency Castel, this is the dark room we have specially prepared for this ceremony. The magic circle has been set up. After the ceremony officially begins, this place will also be part of the ceremony and join the ancestor recognition ceremony."
After hearing Yurst's words, Charlotte nodded slightly.
She took Nice and entered the darkroom.
The darkroom is not big.
It is said to be an underground darkroom, but it is actually a temporarily dug cave.
As soon as he entered the cave, Nice rushed around, looked at the magic circle inside for a while, and then said to Charlotte:
"Lord Charlotte, Yurst is right, this is indeed a magic circle that hacks into the Roman ritual!"
Charlotte nodded slightly.
The Ness clan was afraid of the "god" behind her, so they wouldn't try to trick her, not to mention that the person in charge was one of their own, Yurst.
Roman's trip went more smoothly than she expected. Although there was an accident like Albrecht, which made the other party aware of her identity, overall it was within expectations.
Next, it’s time to wait for the ceremony to begin.
Thinking of this, Charlotte looked around and prepared to find a place to sit down.
After noticing her gaze, Nissi suddenly moved, quickly took out a chair from his alien space, and said flatteringly:
"Lord Charlotte, please take a seat!"
Seeing that the opponent's eyesight was no less than that of Sebastian, Charlotte felt a little funny, but she still sat on it with satisfaction and praised "Not bad."
Hearing her compliment, Nice's whole cat face lit up and seemed quite happy.
Nice used her cat's paw to take out the goblet and sweet milk that had been prepared in advance, and put them in skillfully.
Charlotte glanced at it speechlessly, and felt a little thirsty, so she didn't refuse in the end.
On the other side, Yurst, who saw everything in his eyes, was stunned for a moment, becoming more and more surprised.
Um?
How do you feel... Nicholas, this guy, is also so flattering to Lord Castel?
Looking at the relationship between one person and one cat, he always felt that there was something inconsistent, but he couldn't tell where it was inconsistent.
only……
Nicholas seems to be treated as a pet by His Majesty the True Ancestor, and Lord Castel is His Majesty the True Ancestor’s representative.
The True Ancestor's Crown's pet, towards the True Ancestor's Crown's successor...should this be the attitude?
Even this guy Nicholas has always been a pervert. Hundreds of years ago, he was a shameful thing who couldn't walk when he saw beautiful women. He can be called a weirdo among legendary mages, but... isn't he a little too licky now?
?
Even if Lord Castel's appearance is in line with what he described as his own preferences back then, it seems a bit too humble, right?
Yurst felt strange and looked between Charlotte and Nice suspiciously. He wondered if Nice, an old acquaintance whom he had not seen for hundreds of years, had his brain affected to some extent after turning into a cat.
.
Or...does Mr. Castel have any other secrets that he doesn't know?
Yurst fell into deep thought.
At this moment, Charlotte suddenly raised her eyebrows and put down the goblet in her hand.
Noticing her movements, Yurst's heart moved:
"Sir Castel, what's wrong?"
Charlotte narrowed her eyes and said:
"My substitute...has been kidnapped."
After hearing her words, Yurst was suddenly stunned:
"Your stand-in has been hijacked? Wait...what's going on? Your stand-in should have already been on stage, right?! How did you know?"
Charlotte did not hide anything and said calmly:
"My substitute is my servant, who is connected to me by contract and can communicate with each other spiritually."
As she spoke, she chuckled again:
"It seems that we still underestimated the ambition of the Fallen Star Royal Family. The substitute on stage now is a fake, and my real substitute has been taken away."
"The Fallen Star Royal Family really thinks highly of me. They even hired two Blazing Sun mercenaries for this purpose."
Yurst's expression changed slightly:
"Wait...you mean it was the Roman family that kidnapped your double?!"
Charlotte nodded slightly:
"That's what it sounds like."
Yurst's expression suddenly became serious.
Charlotte glanced at him and smiled:
"Your Excellency Yurst, please don't worry, the Ness clan's plan has not been exposed."
"My stand-in has secretly taken control of the situation. The one in trouble now...is the one who hijacked it."
After hearing Charlotte's words, Yurst felt a little relieved.
But soon he realized something was wrong:
"etc……"
"You mean to say that your servants successfully countered the two attacking Blazing Suns?!"
