Chapter 221 -71- Ness’ bargaining chip

The Ness clan's underground station in North Port is located in the tavern in the outer area of ​​the island.

Count Urist sat quietly in front of the bar with a leisurely look, sipping the mead produced on Luna Island.

Next to him, several other blood descendants from Fallen Star who were also members of the mission were holding weapons and looking warily at the guards surrounding them.

The tavern was in a mess, with the Ness Mission as the center radiating out into a chaotic area. It was obvious that a battle had just occurred, but there was no trace of blood left.

Farther away, the heavily armed Castel guards, led by the extraordinary knights, had three floors inside and three floors outside, sealing the inside and outside of the tavern, and even the entire block was completely sealed off.

Inside and outside the tavern, you could hear a needle drop. All the guards clenched their swords and stared at the vampires in the center with solemn and alert eyes.

"Don't be so nervous. We came here with good intentions. In fact, we don't want to conflict with everyone in Castel."

Earl Jurst glanced at the mortal soldiers around him who were much more nervous than his blood descendants, and said as gently as possible.

He really tried to be as gentle as possible.

The vampires have always been arrogant, even Ness.

Their contempt for mortals is even greater than that of elves. Being able to sit here and talk calmly to these ordinary soldiers whose average strength is not considered extraordinary is really a miracle for traditional blood descendants.

Of course, no matter how gentle he is and how friendly his attitude is, as a representative of the Ness clan, a Blood Earl whose strength reaches Blazing Sun, he cannot really let mortals arrest them.

This is related to the face and dignity of the Nes clan.

Such a solemn confrontation was formed under such circumstances.

However, Yurst took care of himself and did not hurt any of the Castel soldiers who tried to capture them.

Only the tavern owner looked dejectedly at the messy tavern, wondering how much Quintana would have to spend to repair the tavern after this incident.

However, he quickly realized that it was unknown whether the tavern would still be there after today, and whether he would stay in the Northland himself.

It's totally pointless to think about the renovation costs of the tavern now.

The atmosphere in the tavern was depressing and solemn, and everyone was quite nervous except for the extremely powerful Earl Yurst.

Especially as time goes by, more and more guards and extraordinary people are mobilized from Castel, and the blood descendants of Ness look at their count more and more frequently.

Gradually, when the city guards brought over one by one the giant magic crystal cannons enchanted by legendary mages that were used for coastal defense on the coast of Beigang, even Count Juerst could no longer sit still.

He put down the cup that he had finished drinking at some point, and glanced twitchingly at the large weapon that easily tore apart the Fallen Star Kingdom's vanguard fleet in the Star-Moon War. He cleared his throat, somewhat unnaturally.

said:

"Everyone, we have no ill intentions. We are just here to talk to His Excellency Count Castells on behalf of the Ness clan."

The Castel guards looked at each other, and finally an extraordinary knight dressed as a squad leader stepped forward and said cautiously and cautiously:

"The captain has already gone to the Earl's Mansion to report. You are not allowed to act rashly before the Earl conveys the order!"

Not allowed to act rashly?

If you don't act rashly, are you going to transfer all the magic crystal cannons from Beigang?

Yurst cursed secretly, feeling helpless.

Although he is a blazing sun, it is difficult for these heavy magic crystal cannons to kill him face to face, but it is different for other blood descendants.

And even for him, at such a close range and with so many magic crystal cannons, he would be injured if not dead.

Outrageous!

Are all the humans in the Crescent Kingdom so hostile to the vampires?

It's all the fault of those lunatics from Sherdit!

Yurst scolded the compatriots of the Blood Demon Order in his heart, and for a moment he forgot that the hostility between Castel and the Blood Tribe actually started with their own infiltration and the order of Count Castel.

And just when Earl Yurst was thinking about whether he should quietly tear up a teleportation scroll and retreat temporarily with the members of the envoy, a series of rapid horse hooves finally came from outside the tavern.

Earl Yurst's heart moved and he looked outside. He saw a dusty messenger jumped off his horse and ran panting towards the extraordinary knight commanding Castel's guards:

"Captain Chatham! Captain Chatham! Your Majesty the Earl has an order! Take the Ness envoy to the Earl's Mansion to see you!"

As he spoke, the messenger took out a piece of parchment from his arms and presented it with both hands.

The extraordinary knight took the parchment, looked at the order on it and the "wild" signature with a very personal style at the end, and nodded slightly:

"It is indeed the Earl's order."

After speaking, he signaled the soldiers to put down their weapons for the time being, gave a slight salute to Yurst, and said:

"A blood descendant from Fallen Star, Your Majesty the Earl has ordered me to meet you."

After that, he signaled to the guards and moved out of the way.

Yurst breathed a sigh of relief and held back the teleportation scroll that he almost took out.

He gave the other vampires a look, then got up first and walked out of the tavern.

"Wait a minute, although Lord Count is willing to meet with you, but... I can only see the person in charge."

Captain Chatham stopped other blood descendants who wanted to follow Earl Jurst.

The blood descendants immediately glared at him, and Earl Yurst frowned and said to the other blood descendants in the mission:

"You guys just wait here, I can go alone."

It is they who want dialogue, not Castel. Although Castel's attitude is tough, who makes them the party with the request?

Surrounded by guards, Earl Jurst boarded the carriage heading to the Earl's Palace.

There were also a large number of guards deployed around the Earl's Palace. When Yurst got off the carriage, he saw armored knights who were even more elite than the city guards.

Amid layers of guards, he finally entered the Earl of Castres' mansion.

It has to be said that the Castel family is indeed rich and has a profound foundation.

Even with Earl Jurst's critical eye that has been cultivated for thousands of years, the architecture and decoration of the Northland Earl's Mansion can definitely be called low-key, luxurious and stylish.

Even the attendants and male servants in the Earl's Mansion are well-trained and their etiquette standards are no worse than those of his blood servants.

Yurst subconsciously felt that his temporary residence, which was just okay, seemed much shabby compared to the country castle where he now lived.

His previous castle was quite good, but after the failure of the Lilac War, it had been confiscated by the Roman royal family.

Thinking of this, Yurst sighed secretly.

The Ness clan's thousands of years of heritage were mostly wiped out by the Lilac War.

If we can't regain our sphere of influence with the Return to Star Plan, countless bad days are probably still to come.

Following the waiters and guards, Earl Yurst came to the drawing room of the Earl's Mansion.

"Your Excellency, Earl of Jurst, please wait here. Your lord, the Earl, will be here shortly."

The waiter said respectfully.

Yurst nodded slightly and sat down gracefully in the living room.

As soon as he sat down, a young and beautiful maid came in with a tray full of wine and poured him wine for guests.

However, after pouring the wine, the maid did not leave. Instead, she looked at him curiously and couldn't help but ask:

"You are Earl Yurst of the Ness clan?"

Um?

Earl Yurst paused slightly in picking up the wine glass.

He subconsciously looked at the maid, but was quickly stunned because he felt a familiar aura from her body.

That's the breath of blood!

The other party...is a vampire!

Not only that, the affinity the other party brings to him is very strong, which shows that the other party is likely to be a blood descendant with pure blood, at least the fifth generation, and most likely even the fourth generation!

How is this going?

Isn't Count Castells purging the blood descendants in the territory?

How could there be a vampire arrogantly acting as a maid in her mansion?

"Do you know me? Which clan are you descended from? What's your name?"

Earl Jurst asked calmly.

The young maid seemed a little excited. She opened her mouth and was about to say something when a slight cough came from the door:

"Ahem, miss, the count is coming soon."

Miss?

Yurst's heart moved slightly.

He looked towards the door and saw that the person speaking was a knight of the Guards of Castor.

However, when he felt the aura on the knight's body, he was also stunned.

Without him, because the other party is also a vampire!
