The Original Vampire

"What? Winter City released the captives?"

After hearing the news of the captive's return, the first thing Marquis Dawson felt was not joy, but shock.

Because his son Count Falco was still on an envoy in the city, how could the Golden Lions suddenly release their captives?

Moreover, even if the terms were negotiated, Count Falco and Count Anka would not be able to sign a contract with the Saint Hilde family privately.

So, it must be a conspiracy!

"Yes, Lord Marquis. But... the returning captives seem to have clashed with the Menam family."

Hearing the report of the guard, Marquis Dawson's unease grew stronger.

After thinking for a moment, he resolutely strode towards the camp of the Maynum family.

As soon as he entered the territory of the Maynum family, Marquis Dawson was surrounded by a team of guards.

"Take me to the Marquis of Maynum!"

"Okay, Lord Maynum is about to see you."

Looking at this group of heavily armed and grim-faced soldiers, a flash of anger flashed in Marquis Dawson's heart.

Marquess of Maynum What does this mean?

If he doesn't come forward, are you going to send someone to arrest him?

Resisting the anger in his heart, Marquis Dawson came to the center of the Maynum family camp.

"Marquis Maynum, what do you mean?" Marquis Dawson asked irritably when they first met.

"I also want to ask you, Marquis Dawson, why did Winter City suddenly release your family's prisoners?"

"I don't know either, but I think this is most likely a conspiracy of the Saint Hilde family!"

"Conspiracy? What conspiracy?" Marquis Maynum was unmoved, and his eyes on Marquis Dawson were still full of suspicion.

"Instigate discord!" Marquis Dawson said solemnly, "From the very beginning, the Saint Hilde family has been trying to sow discord between us.

Could it be that you forgot the previous peace agreement that required you to hand me over?

They know we can't trust each other,

That's why we use this time and time again to try to divide our relationship.

This time the prisoners are also likely to be their conspiracy!

Therefore, the more times like this, the more we must trust each other and be honest with each other.

If I really wanted to betray you, I wouldn't take the initiative to explain it at this time. "

When Marquis Maynum heard the words, his face became slightly loose, and he seemed to believe Marquis Dawson's words.

He was silent for a moment, then asked, "Then what do you think should be done now?"

Marquis Dawson breathed a sigh of relief. Marquis Maynum's attitude made him feel that there should be room for recovery, so he seriously suggested:

"I think the first thing to do is to appease the captives who have been released, and not let the hearts of the warriors who shed blood for the dwarves get chilled.

Then, on the one hand, we can carefully interrogate the officers among the captives to see why the Golden Lions put them back.

On the other hand, we have to contact Anka and Falco in the city as soon as possible..."

Just when Marquis Dawson was actively cooperating with Marquis Maynum in an attempt to eliminate the bad effects of this sudden release of prisoners, the situation was rapidly deteriorating in an unpredictable direction.

The news of the prisoners' release quickly spread in the Dawson family's camp. Unlike the resistance and skepticism of the Maynum family, the Dawson family must be very willing to accept these prisoners.

After all, those captives are their comrades, even relatives.

But when news broke that the captives had clashed with the Maynum family army, the Dawson family officers were immediately thrown into confusion and anger.

They came to Marquis Dawson's camp one after another, wanting to ask what happened and why the Maynum family attacked their captives?

But at this time, Marquis Dawson had already gone to see Marquis Maynum and was not in the camp at all.

Without a leader, the officers of the Dawson family suddenly quarreled. Some said they were going to rescue the captives, some said they had to ask the situation first, and some said they would wait until Marquis Dawson came back to discuss...

In short, the Dawson family camp also turned into a pot of porridge.

At this moment, Wells was pushed out by the arguing officers.

As the second son of Marquis Dawson, he originally had little prestige in the army, but under the current circumstances, Marquis Dawson has nowhere to go, and Earl Falco, the eldest son of the marquis, has not returned from the envoy to Winter City, so Wells actually At this moment, he has become the most qualified person to lead the Dawson family army.

Although everyone knows that Wells is unreliable, a mediocre leader is better than no leader.

If the quarrel continued like this, it was estimated that the prisoners who had just been released would all be killed.

Wells was also panicked at this time.

But in the face of the scorching eyes of the officers, he couldn't back down, he had to make a decision.

The enormous pressure hit his face, causing Wells to start shaking involuntarily, sweating all over his body, and his mouth was dry.

He forced himself to calm down, but he still didn't dare to take responsibility when he said it, but Nuonuo said: "I think... I still have to find my father first..."

"Lord Marquis Dawson went to the Maynum family. We have sent someone to look for it, but there has been no response!" an officer shouted loudly.

Wells panicked even more, but then a thought flashed through his mind like lightning, causing him to blurt out:

"Not good! The Marquis of Maynum is probably trying to detain his father to the Saint Hilde family in exchange for their understanding!"

"what?!"

This sentence suddenly made the Dawson family officers explode, and it was the first time they heard such news.

Immediately, the scene became more chaotic, but more people began to demand that the army be dispatched to take back Marquis Dawson, and of course the released prisoners.

Wells seemed to feel that he had figured out the whole story at this time, and the reason why his father had not returned for a long time must have been detained.

At this moment, the glory of the Dawson family made him change his cowardly character and took the initiative to stand up and speak out, asking everyone to rescue Marquis Dawson.

In the chaos and anxiety, the Dawson family finally has a unified voice. Although this voice may not lead them to a bright future, at this moment, the confused people need a direction, no matter where it leads, it is better than Good circles in the dark.

So, the loud bugle sounded in the Dawson family camp.

That's the signal to attack.

...

Hearing this voice, Marquis Dawson instantly froze on the spot, and the whole person was dumbfounded.

Originally, he was about to persuade Marquis of Maynum to take prisoners first and stabilize the situation, but now, with the sound of such horns, the entire dwarven camp was boiling.

Marquis Maynum's eyes instantly became as sharp as a viper.

"Fran Dawson! What do you want!"

"This is a misunderstanding! Misunderstanding!"

Marquis Dawson explained sweatingly: "Marquis Maynum, those idiots must have seen me gone for a long time and thought that something had happened to me, so they did something stupid on impulse.

But I hope you understand that I have absolutely no intention of fighting against you, and neither can we fight against each other. This will only make the Saint Hilde family cheaper!

Please let me go back, I will surely appease those guys who only make trouble! "

"Let you go back?" Marquis Maynum sneered, "You play tricks on me several times, do you really think I'm a fool?"

Marquis Dawson was sweating profusely, and there was a hint of pleading in his tone: "Marquis Maynum, you detain me here, it will only make the misunderstanding bigger and the conflict worse. !"

"Misunderstanding?" Marquis Maynum's eyes were cold, "When you lied to me last night, there was no trust between us!

Now Winter City has released the captives of the Dawson family for no reason, and these captives began to attack my army formation without a word, hehe, do you really think you can continue to be deceived? "

Marquis Dawson was stunned for a while, and asked in confusion, "Why did I lie to you last night?"

However, Marquis Maynum had lost patience with Marquis Dawson, smiled coldly, and said to the left and right:

"Take good care of Lord Marquis Dawson, no one is allowed to see him without my order!"

"Yes!" A group of guards immediately stepped forward and surrounded Marquis Dawson.

"Marquis of Maynum, Marquis of Maynum! Listen to my explanation! This is a conspiracy of the Saint Hilde family, and you cannot be fooled!"

Marquis Dawson was still shouting, but Marquis Maynum had already left without looking back.
