Arthur Crow had a population of nearly 500,000 at its peak… There were hundreds of high elf clans living in Arthur Crow.
The Enya clan and the Urias clan were the two most knowledgeable clans among the high elves, and the Urias clan was the basic supervisor of Arthur Crow’s city, each of them possessed the most powerful magical machinery technology in ASCEKRO.
The clan leader of the High Elves would give up his original name and inherit the title of the clan.
Before elder Enya became the clan leader, the man in front of him was already the leader of the Ulyas clan..
“I thought you had been swallowed by those monsters.”
Elder Enya did not feel any joy when he reunited with his old friend again. Time seemed to have worn away elder Enya’s excitement long ago.
“They did devour me.”
Scarlet blood appeared in the Blood Archduke’s hand. The blood formed a ball in his hand and disappeared in an instant.
“You accepted the power of that monster… and then abandoned the faith of the Holy Tree?”
Elder Enya looked at the new power he had obtained and instantly understood how the Grand Duke of fresh blood had survived so many years away from the world tree.
“When I was young, I couldn’t resist the temptation of that monster,”said the Grand Duke of fresh blood.
“What did you do before Arthur Crow met that disaster…”
Just by listening to his few words, elder Enya began to doubt that there was a deeper reason behind Arthur Crow’s disaster.
“You don’t want to hear it… Enya.”
“Ascetic crow has not been destroyed. Since you are still alive, why didn’t you go home! Instead… you stayed in the territory of your enemy for so long.”
Elder Enya looked around the demon world. From the moment she stepped into the demon world, she could feel a familiar aura, but she could not figure out what this aura was.
“Do you still view those humans as your enemies?”
When the Grand Duke of fresh blood heard the word “Return home,”a look of disappointment flashed across his face for a moment, but it did not last long.
He could also hear the resentment in elder Enya’s tone.
“Have you forgotten the reason that would lead to the calamity of Ascekro?”Elder Enya said loudly to the Grand Duke of fresh blood.
“Even if I die, I will never forget Ascek who was burned by the Great Fire. My clansmen turned into monsters with flesh and blood mixed together. I will never forget that scene no matter what.”
“Then why are you still here!”
The demon world was the territory of those blasphemers. The Grand Duke of fresh blood had even become one of the blasphemers’subordinates.
“Because I have to defend this last line of Defense!”
At the moment when the Grand Duke of fresh blood was questioned by elder Enya, his scarlet eyes emitted a dangerous light as he stared at elder Enya.
At this moment, elder Enya had the illusion that she was being targeted by a wild beast. She resisted the urge to retreat in her heart.
“The hatred between the two races is not worth mentioning in front of the existence of this world! Enya, this is the mission of our race.”
At this point, the blood archduke covered half of his face with one hand and left the door of the hall of command in a hurry. There was a carriage waiting for him quietly outside the door.
Elder Enya could only stare at the thin figure and get into the carriage.
The last line of Defense?
Elder Enya raised his head and looked at the two moons hanging high in the sky in confusion.
The duty of the High Elves was to protect the world tree, but when elder Enya gradually figured out the truth of this world.., she realized that the ones who were truly qualified to be called the Guardians of the World Tree did not seem to be them.
..
“Father!”
Pester had been sitting in the carriage waiting for the return of the Grand Duke of fresh blood. When she saw that half of the Grand Duke’s face was slightly distorted, she immediately handed him a glass bottle filled with scarlet liquid.
The blood archduke directly crushed the glass bottle and swallowed the scarlet liquid inside. Only after drinking it did the twisted symptoms on his face gradually improve.
“Father… who are those elves?”
Seeing that the blood archduke had returned to normal, she pulled open the curtain of the carriage and looked at the elves standing at the door of the Hall of command.
“They are just some strangers.”
The Blood Archduke leaned against the seat of the carriage tiredly.
“Return to our territory, Pesto.”After giving this order, the blood archduke chose to close his eyes and fall into a deep sleep.
The carriage drove straight into the sin fiend’s teleportation gate outside the hall of command. After passing through the teleportation gate, a magnificent castle appeared.
This was the territory of the vampires… it could not be called a city, but a small town.
“Pesto, gather all the members of the clan who use the magic net.”
The Blood Archduke did not forget Joshua’s reminder. He left the carriage and walked toward the main hall of the castle where they usually gathered for meals.
Pesto nodded and transformed into a bat and flew into the night.
The blood archduke waited quietly on the throne in the hall for more than two hours. A large number of bats flew into the hall and transformed into human form.
The continuation of the blood breeds did not need to rely on fertility… any weak intelligent creature could become a member of the blood breeds and completely obey the blood archduke’s command.
However, the blood archduke was very restrained. He had to maintain the absolute unity and obedience of the entire race..
“Father, the spawns that you bestowed the leaf of the world tree have all arrived.”
Pesto walked out of the crowd and said to the blood archduke.
There were 23 blood breeds standing in the entire hall. They were all existences with professions in the Kingdom of the devil realm, such as the Watchers under Cecily’s command.
They were also the blood archduke’s confidants. That was why the blood archduke had given the leaf of the world tree to these people, allowing them to obtain information related to Nolan.
“I’ve summoned all of you because I have a question.”
The Grand Duke of Fresh Blood’s scarlet eyes swept across the family members below him.
“Which one of you is playing the game ‘Holy Spirit’?”
Silence. No one answered the grand duke of fresh blood… This scene made the Grand Duke of fresh blood feel both gratified and disappointed.
Gratified that his idea was right. Among the clansmen he had carefully selected, no one would waste their time in the virtual world.
He was disappointed because the third prince was too stubborn! Fuya did not know how to use her excellent talent, yet she allowed her to play games!
“Father… are you going to punish me?”
At this time, pest broke the silence in the hall. This was also the reason why the vampires in the hall did not dare to answer for a while.
The blood archduke was very strict with his own people. Sometimes, he was even more strict than Princess Cecily.
They clearly understood that the reason why the blood archduke gave them permission to use the weave was largely to allow them to collect intelligence on the human world and understand the movements of the human world.
In the future, when they went to the human world to carry out missions, they would minimize the frequency of mission failures.
The vampires treated the weave as a powerful ‘weapon’. If the Grand Duke knew that they used this weapon as a barbeque rack, the Grand Duke would probably impose the death penalty in the next second.
“It’s not a punishment, I just want to know the answer.”
The Grand Duke’s words gave the vampires below courage.
“Your grace… I’ve played a few rounds.”
Finally, someone raised his hand and said in silence.
“I’m also your grace. The current score is 2,100 points.”
Another blood clansman also raised his hand. He heard that there were people around him who had played Holy Spirit like him. Driven by the competitive mentality, he proudly reported his score on the stairway to Heaven Ranking.
“Your grace! My score is 3,700 points!”
Before the Grand Duke could react, the clansmen below began to report the numbers one by one. Each number was higher than the other… This gave the grand duke the illusion that he was participating in an auction.
