The time between Ann and David was not long. If calculated over the span of decades of life, it was probably...a dazed time.
Although the time was short, David's hatred for the vampire aristocrats that he showed all the time was so strong.
…
When David opened his eyes again, Ann's feeling was no longer as strong as before. She seemed to see something else in his eyes.
No longer looks like a revolutionary army.
An was no stranger to the revolutionary army... People who thought about resistance and thought about escaping had always appeared in the clan's major [farms], and most of them would eventually die tragically at the hands of vampires.
In order to prevent adults like An who are willing to serve the [Farm] from developing a sense of resistance, they will often be [invited] to watch the executions of the revolutionary army... and even the execution process.
Those people's eyes were filled with such hatred, deep-seated hatred, pure hatred... Their eyes were still pure before death.
Although he has grown up, although he has become an adult, and although he has experienced many things, there seems to be no fundamental difference from the children on the farm.
He is now more like those adults who are willing to serve as supervisors... more like himself today.
Ann suddenly felt a chill - David was still standing in front of her alive, but she felt that David had been destroyed.
It's just such a short period of time... There are not as many punishments as vampires, and there is no long-term torture.
"Are you...are you okay?" An couldn't help but stepped forward and asked.
"I'm fine now." David's answer once again exceeded Ann's expectation, "Far better than before...it couldn't be better."
"Okay...what's good about it?" An seemed a little uncomfortable with the David in front of her - even though the time she had been in contact with him was really very short.
"You will understand if you try it." David smiled lightly at this time, "There are so many things here, you can give it a try...sell some things that will torture you like a nightmare every day, and then
Exchange it for something that will make you stronger."
An took a few steps back in fear, and suddenly bumped into something behind her, and then she leaned on him weakly - what she saw on David's face was such a weird smile.
"It seems that sir is satisfied with this transaction." Luo Qiu showed a joyful expression, as if he felt satisfied because he had once again satisfied the customer.
Is this what a businessman looks like?
An is not sure... Businessmen are also a very strange and distant profession to her - there are no businessmen doing business in the [Farm]. Everything the children here enjoy is provided by the nobles, so they can always be carefree.
Living on earth: before adulthood.
“Couldn’t be more satisfied.”
When he said this, David was also backing away. He still held the Tang Dao he bought tightly and refused to put it down... When he was almost approaching the door of the utility room, he stopped, and then looked
He stood up and said quite relaxedly: "If I want to buy other things, can I sell more other memories?"
"That's it..." Luo Qiu looked at David and said directly: "After escaping [the farm] and joining the revolutionary army, sir, it seems that he had a lady he admired... but you hid this feeling in your heart.
If you still want to continue buying, you can use this admiration as an exchange."
"This is a bit difficult to handle." David chuckled.
An felt that this smile was somewhat evil... After a person loses a memory, will he really become a different person?
However, it stands to reason that he has not lost all his memory.
Is he planning to continue the transaction... An Po is waiting for David's answer with some anticipation - for some reason, she hopes David will agree.
Maybe it's out of human curiosity.
"I still have things I need to do."
This was the answer David gave. After giving the answer, he opened the door and walked out without looking back, as if he had completely forgotten Ann's existence.
He really left like this... An suddenly became a little overwhelmed - because now she was left alone to face this mysterious young businessman.
She heard the ticking sound of the old pocket watch again... tick, tick, tick.
"Is he planning to deal with the nobles just like this?" She asked the question hurriedly, trying to break the silence that appeared again after David left.
"Madam seems to be very concerned about this gentleman's behavior." Luo Qiu smiled slightly: "Don't you prefer to be able to get out of trouble?"
An shrugged and said, "I want to see if he really has no problem...as a reference for whether I should buy something from you?"
Luo Qiu said quite so, "Have you read it for reference?"
"not yet!"
She spoke carefully, like a middle-aged woman standing in front of a new product exhibition stand being sold a juicer by a salesman.
Boss Luo suddenly said: "Madam, are you still planning to hire me?"
An said angrily: "Didn't you already refuse?"
Boss Luo said calmly: "But there is another way... How about I hire you instead? As a reward, I can take you away from this [farm] safely."
"You..." An couldn't help but opened her mouth and pointed at herself without knowing what was going on, "Hire me? What can I do for you?"
She didn't understand how she, an ordinary person, could help others.
He opened his palm in front of An, and a beautiful ring appeared out of thin air in the palm of his hand. At Luo Qiu's signal, An took the ring and looked at it carefully.
She discovered that a total of ten gray crystals were inlaid on the edge of the ring...it was obviously not diamonds, and she had never heard of any gemstones that were gray.
"What is this?" An asked curiously.
Luo Qiu said: "Bring it on... have you seen the ten gems on the ring? After accepting my employment, all you need to do is light up these ten gems. The lit gems will show a purple shimmer.
.”
“How do I light them?”
An asked directly...seeming to be a little moved.
Boss Luo smiled and said: "It's very simple, you just need to save the humans who are trapped in the [Mating Farm] and the [Slaughterhouse] after the [Mating Farm]. The more humans you save,
, the faster the gems will light up and the greater the number."
An was furious and threw the ring out angrily, "Are you kidding me? Are you asking me to save people? What should I do to save them? I can't even save myself!"
The boss was not angry. After snapping his fingers, the ring that was still on the ground returned to his palm. He met An's eyes, smiled and said: "Of course I won't let you save people like this...
…Everything here is free for you to use.”
"What?" An was startled.
At this time, Boss Luo also lifted up the old pocket watch and put it in his palm - he extended his palm to An again.
On the palm of the hand, the ring and pocket watch were close together.
Is this guy...serious?
…
…
An suddenly remembered a word that was rarely used in daily life - ghostly mind.
What is a ghost? Is it a vampire kind of ghost? God knows?
The words "vampire" and "ghost" in foreign languages are obviously not the same. She saw this word in the library: a travel journal that was left in a corner and no one read it.
——Then, I look forward to your success...brave lady.
The mysterious young businessman just disappeared.
As for where he went, An obviously didn't know very well - maybe as he said before, he was just following a secret passage dug by an unknown person, intending to find the thief who threw his things.
Will the thief be miserable if he is caught?
She couldn't help but curiously think about these things that logically had nothing to do with her at this time - but she couldn't find a clue to sort out the things left behind by the merchant before he left.
The only thing that made An feel convenient was that the ring in her hand had a magical storage function - so many things were stuffed into this ring, and when she wanted to use it, she only needed a thought.
Such convenience...so many useful treasures, An almost didn't think anything about it. After Boss Luo disappeared, she immediately lifted up her skirt and walked towards the entrance of the secret passage!
Are you stupid? With so many things, you still need to ask someone to take you away?
——By the way, once the ring leaves the range of [Farm], it will become invalid and become an ordinary ring.
The person had obviously disappeared, but the voice suddenly rang in An's ears just as she was about to jump... quite suddenly.
This made the dormitory candidate in dormitory No. 7, who still maintained some of his original [personality], suddenly be so frightened that he fell into the dark passage.
After a while, An crawled out from the secret passage again... with some white spider webs stuck to her hair.
She looked around suspiciously, feeling that this mysterious guy had not really gone far, but was hiding aside and observing her.
It wasn't until a while that she heard the other party's voice ring again.
An sat alone on the floor of the utility room, smelling the moldy smell of old items sinking in the air, and carefully shook out the first thing from the ring: a pair of boots.
【Boots that can accelerate】
The moment she took the boots into her hands, the name of the boots appeared naturally in Ann's mind - and how to use them.
An did not put it on immediately, but continued to ponder and muttered: "In the end, I still have to save people..."
I remember that at first David thought she could save people.
She grabbed her hair hard, and then shook the ring on her finger suddenly - this time a cloak fell off.
[Cloak that can make you invisible]
Just die!
She bit it and thought like this.
…
A group of senior nobles from the clan gathered together at this time - in a particularly luxurious building in the [Farm].
There are all kinds of buildings in [The Farm] - luxurious ones are actually not uncommon.
This kind of luxurious building is a place used to cultivate [characters] such as [noble ladies] and [noble young masters] - there were originally several high-level [crops] living here, but now they are temporarily requisitioned by these superior nobles.
I came here as a temporary place to stay.
"I really can't believe that Buzby actually dared to kill Bobochi in front of everyone!" a noble said angrily.
The companions around him all agreed, and while they were criticizing Buzby, they were also scolding the acting Grand Duke for his irresponsibility, his easy transfer of clan authority, and his contempt for the noble clan authority.
"We can't let Buzby take over the clan power like this! Why should he?!" Another noble snorted coldly at this time: "In the final analysis, he is just a guy of unknown origin!"
"Everyone, compared to Buzby's behavior, don't you think what Balegang did is more unreasonable?" Another superior noble knocked on the table at this time.
He attracted the attention of all the superior nobles - as a superior noble, he obviously also has a lot of prestige in the circle of the entire clan's superior nobles.
"Marquis of Guda, what do you think?"
He... the Marquis of Guda sneered at this time, "As the acting Grand Duke, he actually left at a critical moment, and even handed over the Grand Duke's tokens casually, and even more connived at his subordinates to kill the superior nobles! He even connived at his subordinates to change the supply that had been provided
Rules... I feel that as the acting Grand Duke, Bailegang has not fulfilled his duties at all! Therefore, I propose... to use the privileges of the superior nobles!"
At this time, the faces of the participants all changed slightly.
Superior nobles have many privileges - but there is only one that the Marquis would solemnly mention on this occasion.
That is, when more than 70% of the superior nobles agree... they can wake up the sleeping clan prince!
However, no matter what the reason is, waking up the grand duke of the clan from his slumber will inevitably make the grand duke unhappy - there have been many such calls in history, and among the recorded times, more than half of the callers were
The Grand Duke who woke up immediately punished him severely.
The Marquis of Guda looked around at the nobles present and said seriously: "It's not long before the next [Holy Blood] ceremony, and the Grand Duke is actually about to wake up. If it had been done a little earlier, it wouldn't have happened.
It will make the Grand Duke unhappy... Moreover, this awakening will be carried out by me personally. No matter what kind of punishment there is, I will bear it alone, as long as you agree!"
"Marquis Guda, as you said, there is not much time left before the [Holy Blood] ceremony. The Grand Duke will naturally wake up by then..." A nobleman shook his head at this time and said: "It's not bad either.
Why should we take this risk when we have such a small amount of time?”
The Marquis of Guda looked at the speaker expressionlessly.
Indeed, it won't be long before the Grand Duke wakes up naturally... For a vampire with a long life, naturally he won't care about this short period of one and a half months.
But...it's true that the Grand Guild woke up before the [Holy Blood] ceremony, wouldn't Balegang come back early?
