Chapter 630: Chapter 418 Are You Looking for ?

Bolin Kingdom, Duke Burns’ Domain,

The night was like thick ink, slowly covering the black castle atop the cliff. The castle seed to rise from the Abyss, each black brick carrying ancient secrets.

Moonlight danced upon the castle towers but couldn’t penetrate the dense shadows, casting mottled light and adding an eerie quality to the quiet night.

Around the castle lay a desolate rocky area, with a few twisted trees stubbornly growing. Their branches swayed in the wind, whispering the castle’s past. In the distance, a winding path shimred like a thin silver ribbon, connecting the castle to the town beyond.

In the night, the silhouette of the castle flickered in and out of view. Its towering walls, sharp towers, and closed iron gates exuded an inviolable majesty. The windows of the castle were pitch black, as if countless eyes were spying from the darkness, sending shivers down one’s spine. A breeze brought a chill and the dim lights of the distant town, contrasting with the castle’s solitude.

Very few lights could be seen throughout the castle, as if no one lived there.

However, the residents of the town at the foot of the mountain were not too curious; Burns Castle had been like this for many years, and they had grown accustod to Duke Burns’ idiosyncrasies.

Even so, no one dared to offend the dignity of Duke Burns.

A century of rule had solidified the Duke’s control over the land.

But perhaps the lord didn’t care much about these matters…

Within a quiet chamber of the castle, devoid of any particular decoration, there sat only an ornate black and gold coffin.

Click~

The long-silent coffin suddenly shifted, its noise echoing in the silent room.

A pale hand reached out from inside and grabbed the edge of the coffin.

In an instant, the black and red currents filling the room rushed into the coffin as if a swallow returning to its nest.

In the darkness, a vague figure sat up from the coffin, reaching out as if grasping sothing.

“Has Lord Cain’s strength been triggered?”

“Is it Angela?”

“This aura… A legendary-level vampire?”

…

The next day, Kate City,

The battle of the previous night had completely ended, and the magic array set by Lis had completely disappeared, but the great battle was not aningless.

Although the two vampires had used a legendary secret treasure to summon a powerful attack, Angela managed to resist it with strength derived from Cain, but Lis’s magic array shielded the remaining aftershocks, so no casualties occurred among the residents of Kate City during the great battle.

However, the houses within the magic array weren’t so lucky, almost completely destroyed, leaving only a field of broken walls and ruins.

The once-bustling streets now lay in ruins, shattered bricks and rubble scattered everywhere, as if narrating the tragedy of the previous night’s battle.

At this ti, the people arranged by Marquis Kate were clearing the rubble, the air thick with the sll of dust and gunpowder, causing people to frown.

Among these workers, the city guards of Kate City, clad in neat armor, patrolled the ruins.

They carefully cleared the traces left by the golden-level vampires, ensuring that no remaining vampire strength affected Kate City.

They ticulously searched every corner, not overlooking any suspicious clues.

But these were no longer the concerns of Lis and Marquis Kate.

Marquis Kate had already handed over all the wealth accumulated by the vampires over the years to Lis; since he hadn’t helped much in last night’s fight, he naturally wouldn’t covet these riches.

Besides, the performances of Lis and Angela the previous night had entirely intimidated Marquis Kate, keeping him from harboring any ulterior motives.

Especially when Angela shattered Blood Claw, the noble figure standing behind her almost made Marquis Kate want to kneel and offer his faith.

He even faintly felt that this mighty power might stem from an even higher being, above the Legendary Crown.

Nevertheless, Marquis Kate dared not question Lis and Angela; it wasn’t his place to interfere.

Even if Angela in full power seed sowhat different, her appearance remained quite similar to the vampires.’

Marquis Kate could only devote his energy to the cleanup of Kate City’s ruins, instructing his castle attendants to take good care of the two distinguished guests.

Lis didn’t feel much about it; he had been ready to face a great battle the night before, but things hadn’t gone as he had expected.

Even so, he still had substantial gains.
