"Liu Fei and the others are all dead, including two hundred blood servants. In addition, this morning the senior staff within the Chu Group also expelled Lauren and the others from the company."
Clinton, whose face was as pale as paper, closed the document in his hand and shook his head slightly.
"The Chu Group can no longer continue to be our fortress."
After listening to Glinton's words, the expression on Rowan's face was extremely gloomy.
Sitting on the comfortable sofa in the villa, Rowan raised his right leg, holding a goblet filled with blood in his left hand, with a gloomy face, tasting the blood of the girl in the cup.
This is Rowan's home and where he rests on weekdays.
————————
It was already dark, and the villa was pitch dark with no lights on.
Only a white candlestick on the table gave off a faint light.
The layout of the villa tends to be in the medieval Gothic style. Whether it is the furniture or the style of the curtains and wallpaper, there is a strong Gothic atmosphere, making people feel like they have arrived in a medieval castle.
In the quiet and dark villa, the doors and windows were wide open, and a cold wind blew in.
The snow-white gauze curtains fluttered with the cold wind, and the heavy knight's armor made of pure metal in the living room looked particularly cold under the moonlight.
"Hoo ho ho!" The wind sounded, and the candlelight was blown shaky. In the dark corner of the villa's living room, dozens of pairs of blood-red lights shone slightly.
In the pitch-black villa, where the vampires gathered where they couldn't even see their hands, blood-red eyes flickered like will-o'-the-wisps in the darkness.
It was the light emanating from the eyes of twenty young men and women dressed in black servant uniforms.
They are all so handsome and beautiful. Except for their blood-red eyes and no fangs, they are so quiet that they seem to have nothing to do with monsters.
However, standing in the darkness, each of them had expressionless faces, and each of their eyes were so lifeless and confused, standing there like puppets, waiting for their master's summons.
Blood servants are blood servants created from living people.
This may not be accurate. It should be said that this is a blood servant created by the Camarilla Vampires.
Some of them were made into blood servants after death, such as the blond man in the center of the team, the North American branch member named Randall.
There are also people who were made into blood servants while they were still alive, such as those members of the Chinese branch who were captured when the Chinese branch was attacked.
Apart from them, there are several ordinary human girls among the blood servants. They are all beautiful, fair-skinned and beautiful, and the blood in Rowan's cup comes from them when they were still humans.
——————————
Taking a gentle sip of the blood in the cup, Rowan cast his gaze over the fireplace in the living room, which was about two meters high, the "Virgin of the Rocks".
Looking at the Virgin Mary sitting among the rocks in the oil painting, the baby John in her right hand and Jesus below her left hand, Rowan slowly stretched out two sharp fangs from the corners of his mouth covered in blood.
"Very good. As expected of Karl, I knew he wouldn't be so quiet waiting for the game to start."
Rowan put down the blood in his hand and gently placed his slender fingers on his temple.
"The Chu Group can be completely abandoned. It is not a big fortress in the first place. If it is lost, it will be lost. However, other places still need to be more vigilant."
Rowan rubbed his temples and said in a deep voice, "How many fortresses do we have in total in this province?"
"Thirty-five seats."
"Okay, wake up 20% of the blood servants under each fortress, and strengthen manpower security for each fortress. Although Karl may not necessarily know the location of all fortresses, he must be more cautious."
Clinton nodded to show that he understood.
The elders and that man had no intention of directing their actions, so Rowan was responsible for everything here, and Rowan never let them down.
The raid on the Chinese branch and the interception and killing of five action teams of the North American branch were all his masterpieces. Only after meeting Karl did Rowan encounter some setbacks.
"I understand, what should we do next?" Clinton asked respectfully.
"Snapped!"
Rowan gently snapped his fingers, and a smile appeared in his scarlet eyes.
As soon as the snap of fingers ended, a young and beautiful female blood servant walked out of the darkness of the living room.
With an expressionless face and blank eyes, she came behind Rowan. The beautiful blood servant gently massaged her master's shoulders.
"Clinton, don't worry. The reason why I was angry just now was just because I didn't discover Karl's actions and was even misled by that guy Chu Zifeng. Other than that, I'm really not too surprised."
Rowan adjusted his sitting posture, put his head into the blood servant's white and soft hands, and let those hands relieve him from fatigue.
"Karl will never stay in that hotel and wait for death. He will definitely take the initiative before the game starts. The Chu Group is just a little sweetness I gave him, otherwise I would not know about Chu Zifeng and
After establishing the relationship with the Chu Group, we immediately strengthened the Chu Group's defenses. Now it seems that it is really a good place, at least after the Chu Group is raided, Carl will not do anything else."
Rowan closed his eyes and smiled, "He should be very happy with this sweetness and won't take the initiative in a short time."
After speaking, Rowan closed his eyes and pointed at Clinton.
"But in order to prevent Carl from bringing us more surprises, let Brandt place his animals around the hotel and call Xiaolan over to give Carl a little surprise."
Rowan waved his hand and asked the female blood servant behind him to leave, saying in a deep voice.
"As for you, go and give Karl a gift soon. It will be our reaction to what happened last night. Otherwise, Karl will be surprised if there is no reaction at all."
Clinton was a little unsure.
"what gift?"
Rowan smiled, picked up the blood at hand, gently shook the bright color in the cup wall, and said with a sneer.
"Doesn't he like to use bombs? Then give him a bomb and let him have a taste of what it feels like to be frightened."
"But you have to control the amount. It's just a small surprise. Don't let the gods in heaven sense anything."
"clear."
"Wait a minute."
Rowan stopped Clinton who was about to leave and gave instructions in a deep voice.
"We must seize the time to investigate the whereabouts of Pierce and the soul ring, as well."
Rowan slowly clenched his fists, his expression extremely dark, "The person who placed the torture ax and the blood cup in front of us must be someone from the Lesembra clan. If possible, find them! I don't want to see it anymore.
See how tenacious these old fogies are!"
Clinton asked softly.
"What if someone from the Lesembra clan is with Pierce?"
Rowan smiled slightly, showing his eight white teeth.
"Then you still need to ask? If we can solve it, we will solve it together. If we can't solve it, we will eliminate those old stubborns first! They know too much. Letting them escape alive in the first place was already our biggest mistake!"
The Secret Party has seven major clans, the Demon Party has two major clans, and the other four major clans have been neutral parties for thousands of years.
These thirteen clans also formed the current thirteen branches of the Blood Clan.
In the Demon Party, in addition to Rowan's Tsimishi clan, there is another clan, the Lethembra clan.
That's what Rowan calls a stubborn old man.
A group of guys who are unwilling to cooperate and only want to stick to their bloodline.
"I see."
After receiving Rowan's instructions, Clinton put his right hand on his chest, bowed respectfully, and then turned around and left to prepare a gift for Carl.
After Clinton left, Rowan, holding a goblet in his hand, slowly came to the portrait of "The Virgin of the Rocks", quietly looked at the Virgin and Jesus in the darkness, and murmured softly.
"Karl."

At eight o'clock in the evening, Huang Xiaobei received a call, saying that he had a courier outside the door and asked him to sign for it quickly.
After answering the phone, Commissioner Huang went out to pick up the express delivery obediently, without feeling anything was wrong at all.
After getting the courier from the back door of the hotel, he said thank you to the pale but handsome foreign courier guy, and Commissioner Huang happily carried the courier box back to the basement dormitory.
When he entered the dormitory door, Commissioner Huang, who was holding the express box in his arms, stopped.
Looking at the quite heavy express box in his hand and shaking the contents, the energetic Commissioner Huang blinked blankly, then slowly raised his chin and faced the ceiling of the basement dormitory.
, raised a very philosophical question.
"Did I buy express delivery?"
Huang Xiaobei calmly scratched his face.
"No, should I have money to buy express delivery? Well, it seems that I don't..."
Looking at the express box in his hand, Commissioner Huang's eyes suddenly became suspicious.
Is this my express delivery? Is it sent to the wrong person?
Yes, but there is really my name on it.
Huang Xiaobei stared at the name on the express delivery note, wondering why he had arrived at his grandma's house.
Mom, what's going on with this express delivery? People like me have long been so poor that I can't afford anything, so I can only borrow other people's things, but there is actually... Well, could it be...
....
Commissioner Huang had an idea, and his eyes suddenly became strange.
"Is it possible, could this be a gift given to me by someone else? Oh, this is very possible, but...is there anyone who can give me a gift?"
"It doesn't seem like..."
Commissioner Huang picked his nose in embarrassment.
Alas, how do you say that sentence?
The most rare thing for people is to be able to recognize themselves.
——————————
Tang Seng and Lao Wei were sitting at the table in the innermost part of the dormitory, studying the structural diagram of the hotel from the fifteenth to the eighteenth floor.
Lao Wei pointed to the location of the stairs on the right side of the 18th floor on the map and said seriously.
"I suggest that we evacuate from here after we succeed. This is the closest to Qianqian's room, making it easier to escape."
Elder Tang held a cigarette in his mouth and waved his hand to express his disagreement.
"No, no, no, we should go down directly by the elevator. In this way, even if Qianqian spots us and chases us down in another elevator, she will chase us directly to the dormitory. This way, we can go down early on the fifth or seventh floor.
, fighting guerrilla warfare with her in the hotel.”
"Hey, that's a good idea."
The two eldest brothers are preparing for actions tonight or in the recent days, and if nothing unexpected happens, they should be preparing to raid Qianqian's room tonight.
Because these two people are currently studying what seems to be an escape route.
Hearing the sound of the door opening, Tang Seng and Wei Silin, who were having a heated discussion, simultaneously turned to look at Huang Xiaobei, who walked in with a courier box in his arms.
Looking at the express box in Huang Xiaobei's hand, Lao Wei and Tang Seng said in unison.
"What delicious food did you buy?"
Holding the relatively heavy express box in his hand, Huang Xiaobei shook his head, "I don't know, this shouldn't be my express delivery, right? Although it has my name on it, you think I am like a buyer."
Will there be someone who can send me a gift by the way?"
Elder Tang shook his head decisively.
"Neither of these two has much to do with you."
Lao Wei's eyes changed a bit when he looked at Huang Xiaobei, and he felt a little distressed.
"Xiao Bei, maybe it was a gift from your previous girlfriend." Lao Wei said with a smile.
But facing Lao Wei's sunny smile, the appearance of an invitation suddenly appeared in Huang Xiaobei's mind?!
Um, could it be that my senior sister got married and sent me an invitation?
When he thought of the word invitation and the word "money" that followed, Commissioner Huang almost died of fright.
I'm going to choke you, you still have no shame! Haven't we just met once? Are you embarrassed to ask me for my share of the money?
Commissioner Huang, who was doomed to live a lonely life, immediately threw the express box in his hand into the trash can and wiped his hands vigorously with toilet paper. Who knows, he thought there was something bad about the express box.
"Mom, I was almost fooled! I knew that no one would be kind enough to send me a courier. Hey, you all saw it. I didn't open the courier box, and I didn't receive the invitation. I have no obligation to give you a share of the money.
"
Lao Wei and Tang Seng rolled their eyes at the same time.
Why does this guy have such a weird brain circuit? (To be continued)
