The Original Vampire

"...The orc was only three meters away from me at that time, and its head was as big as a wine barrel. It is estimated that it could swallow me in one bite..."

The tavern was noisy and noisy, and people crowded in the hall, discussing the orc attack last night.

A mercenary who is said to have participated in the entire battle with his own eyes has become the focus of everyone's attention. There, he spit out and recounted his thrilling experience last night. Guanzi, someone will invite you to a glass of ale.

"...See this wound? It was left to me by the orc last night!" The mercenary showed his right arm, pointed to the bleeding wound, and said to everyone, his tone full of self-satisfaction, "But It didn't feel good either! I just stabbed it in the heart with a sword and killed this ugly guy!"

Everyone's eyes widened, and the eyes they looked at the mercenary were full of admiration. Obviously, they didn't expect that he could actually kill an orc.

But at this moment, a disdainful voice came from outside the circle:

"The weapons of the orcs are giant axes and spears, but the wounds on your arms are stab wounds, and I don't remember mercenaries participating in the battle last night!"

"You suspect that I'm lying!" The mercenary looked towards the direction from which the voice came, and shouted out of confidence.

But when he saw the praetorian uniform on the man who spoke, he immediately became miserable.

"Kang...Lord Conley..." The mercenary obviously recognized the person, and quickly put on a flattering face. He personally asked the tavern owner for a glass of ale and brought it to Knight Conley. Let's talk about the battle last night."

Knight Conley snorted lightly, but did not embarrass the mercenary. After all, the other party just made up his experiences to brag about himself, and it was not a big mistake. .

He came to the bar and just picked up the glass and poured it into his mouth, but he didn't seem interested in talking about it.

The mercenary scratched his head, stepped forward and asked:

"Lord Conley, how many orcs did the Guards kill last night?"

Knight Conley put down the wine glass, let out a long breath, and said lightly:

"More than seventy."

"Seventy?" The mercenary's tone rose, with a look of disbelief, "But...but wasn't the battle situation quite intense last night? I heard that the orcs have broken through the West City Gate, why did you kill so many orcs?"

"Because... there are not many orcs attacking, and there are only about four or five hundred in total."

"Four or five hundred?"

The drinkers felt strange, after all, the Dragon City was the most famous fortified city in the Radiance Empire, how could it be possible for such a few orcs to break through the city gate.

If it wasn't for the fact that Conley was an officer in the Praetorian Guard, and he was a knight, I'm afraid everyone would think he was talking nonsense.

Immediately, someone couldn't help but ask:

"Lord Conley, if there are only so many orcs, how did they break through the West Gate?"

Knight Conley suddenly clenched the wine glass in his hand,

The veins on the right hand were sticking out, and after a while, he gritted his teeth and said:

"Because the orcs have an inner response! Taking advantage of the night, they cut off the chains of the suspension bridge and put the orcs in!"

"Inner response? Who is it?"

Knight Conley shook his head: "I don't know..."

Everyone looked at each other in dismay, and then began to talk a lot, guessing who this inner should be.

The tavern owner filled Knight Conley with another glass of wine and asked:

"Lord Conley, how about the casualties of the Praetorian Guard? From your appearance... it doesn't seem very good?"

Knight Conley's face became even more painful, he grabbed the wine glass in front of him, poured it down, and then said abruptly:

"It is true that there are heavy casualties, and, Lord Pamela... also died in battle..."

The tavern was quiet for a moment, and then a louder noise broke out.

"Pamela Knight died in battle?!"

"how so?"

Gu Sui\u003c/span\u003e "Who the hell is the insider? Don't let me find this guy, or I'll make him look good!"

...

"I know who I should be..."

Hearing this sentence, the tavern seemed to have been pressed the pause button, and all the noise disappeared instantly.

Knight Conley stood up immediately, stared at the scarlet drunken eyes and looked around, and asked anxiously:

"Who? Who said just now that they know what the orcs should do?"

The young man who spoke seemed to be frightened by the appearance of Knight Conley, and froze in place.

Until Knight Conley rushed to him, held his collar, and asked:

"Who should be? What do you know?"

"I... I heard news that something is wrong with Darren Knight, the second son of Earl Lloyd..."

"Darren Knight? What's wrong with him?"

"Yes, it is said that after he returned home from the battlefield last night, something was wrong. He even had a conflict with the family guards, and even killed His Majesty's illegitimate son Ryan in the process..."

"But it doesn't prove that Darren is the inner responder." Someone questioned.

"Then how do you explain his abnormality? Besides, this person was on duty at the West City Gate last night, and he had the opportunity to cut off the chains of the suspension bridge..."

Hearing this, Knight Conley squeezed out of the crowd and rushed out of the tavern, all the way towards the Lloyd family.

When arriving at the Lloyd family manor, Knight Conley really found the atmosphere here very depressing.

After reporting the identity, the guard refused the visit of Knight Conley: "Sorry, Knight Conley, the Earl is not here today, please come back another day..."

Knight Conley snorted coldly and said:

"Earl Lloyd thinks he can get away with this? Please tell him that the Guards will investigate this matter thoroughly!"

After that, Knight Conley strode away angrily.

After walking for a while, Knight Conley suddenly felt a slight tremor in the ground, and as time passed, the tremor became stronger and stronger.

As a seasoned field veteran, Knight Conley immediately realized that this was cavalry, and it was massive cavalry.

His heart tightened, and he quickly quickened his pace.

It didn't take long for a group of majestic and heroic cavalry to appear on the street, and Knight Conley saw their identity at a glance - the blood cavalry!

Knight Conley knew that Earl Angelie led a blood cavalry squad when he entered the city, but it was only three or four hundred cavalry, and now looking at the situation, it is obvious that the blood cavalry army has entered the city!

Due to its high-profile performance in the Battle of the Loire Valley, the blood cavalry's popularity among the people of the empire was at its peak. After entering the Royal Dragon City at this time, it was immediately welcomed by the people.

But Knight Conley's face became more and more gloomy, because he knew that, as an imperial capital, Imperial Dragon City would never allow the army of local lords to enter!

Quickly walking to the head of the city, looking at the endless blood cavalry troops pouring into the city, Knight Conley hurriedly found a guard officer on duty and asked:

"What's the matter? Why let the blood cavalry army enter the city? Who gave you the order..."

Before the officer could answer, a clear voice suddenly sounded:

"I gave it."

Knight Conley turned his head and saw a valiant young man standing behind him at some point.

"Count Angeli."
