Chapter 499: Old Earl Cabriel
To be honest, Lei Yi was a little disappointed.
Because the expected evolution did not appear, Ingrid wrapped the removed knight sword with a black cloth and walked down.
As the knight sword was removed, the defensive barrier covering the golden lion sculpture collapsed immediately, and the light disappeared instantly.
The next moment, the light source that illuminated the entire underground space was also quickly extinguished, and at the same time, a bad premonition rose in Lei Yi's heart.
"Silly girl, take us back!" Finally, Lei Yi shouted, then picked up the night sky bell beside him and rushed towards Ingrid.
Rumble!
As the mountains trembled, the entire underground space really began to collapse as soon as his words fell.
Old house, inside the main hall.
A circle of light emerged from the air, and then three figures rushed out of it, one in front of the other.
Rumble!
Within the aperture, there was a burst of roaring, which was the sound of the collapse of the underground space.
When the aperture disappeared and the roar gradually weakened, the three of Lei Yi could still feel a gradually weakening shock from the ground.
"Who set up this trap? Will he be buried alive after taking the things?" Lei Yi got up and couldn't help complaining.
If there is no space power of Yekongling, the three of them might be buried alive.
But at this moment, a sudden change occurred.
A sense of danger struck, the hairs all over Lei Yi's body stood up, and his body instinctively rolled to the side.
Clang——
A cyan sword light slashed vertically, and the attack like a crescent moon left a slender cut mark on the ground.
This attack is definitely from the hands of a powerhouse above the seventh rank, otherwise it would not have such power.
After barely dodging the sword, Lei Yi looked at the direction where the attack came from.
To his surprise, the seat was empty.
Seeing this, his nose twitched instinctively, and then a hint of astonishment appeared on his face.
"This smell is the breath of the blood race, and there are people of the blood race here!"
"Squeak!" There was a cry of bats in the old house.
A black, smoke-like swarm of bats flew over the heads of the three of them, and penetrated into the ceiling above which was already full of holes.
"Ergou, those bats are..." Yekongling instinctively wanted to say something, but a sword light fell from above quickly.
"Be careful!" Lei Yi exclaimed as a reminder, but Ye Kongling's reaction was faster.
The woman dived forward, and she disappeared into the air. When she reappeared, she was already more than ten meters away, and the blow naturally hit the empty space.
"Above!" After avoiding the attack, Yekongling raised her finger and pointed at the heads of the three.
When Lei Yi focused his eyes, he could see a vague figure in the gap in the ceiling.
"Did he sneak attack us!" The moment he saw the figure, he knew that the other party should have been ambushing nearby.
But Lei Yi was a little surprised, because this old Gustav's house had been abandoned for a long time, and it was near the junction of the aristocratic area and the civilian area, so there were not even patrolling sergeants.
How did the other party discover the three of them?
And it seemed that the other party wanted to keep the three of them alone.
"Squeak!" There was another cry of bats, and a swarm of black bats flew in from the window on the left.
"These bats are one of the abilities of the blood race!" Lei Yi also saw something, looked towards the bat group, and then punched.
The air bomb hit the vicinity of the bat swarm at an extremely fast speed, and a violent air wave erupted.
Under the impact of the shock wave, the bat group was affected by the air turbulence, and the flying movements became messy.
But soon, the group of bats turned into a cloud of black mist, and then gathered together.
The bats around flew into the black mist as if they had received an order.
As the black mist gradually grew, a figure slowly walked out of it.
What caught the eyes of the three of them first was a pair of scarlet eyes, followed by a set of white knight armor.
The thin face, pale wrinkled skin, withered silver hair, and the two fangs in the mouth all declared the identity of the other party's blood.
But what surprised Lei Yi was that the silver-haired old man in front of him seemed familiar.
"Grandpa Motley!" Ingrid answered the doubt, and the moment she saw the old man, she called out the honorific title.
"Your grandfather, is it the old Earl of Cabriel?" Combining the identity of Ingrid's natal family and the appearance of the old man, Lei Yi suddenly understood.
The opponent's facial features are very similar to the current head of the Cabriel family, Pegasus Knight Dolde, so the result has already been drawn.
Isn't the old man who turned into a blood clan in front of him the other party's real father?
However, according to his recollection, the old Earl of Cabriel, Motley Rowland Cabriel, seems to have passed the hereditary title to Dolder many years ago, and then left the capital.
Unexpectedly, the other party actually stayed in the capital, in the old house of Gustav's family.
"Ingrid..." The old count seemed to have just reacted, staring at Ingrid with scarlet eyes, but then his eyes were replaced by a trace of ferocity.
"Under the order of His Majesty Diggs, my mission is to find the secret of Gustav's family. That secret is about, about..."
Afterwards, the old earl seemed to go crazy, raised his long sword in his hand, and attacked Lei Yi and the other three.
When the attack was launched, his appearance also changed drastically.
His eyes were bloodshot, the fangs in his mouth became sharper, his hands turned into sharp claws, his ears became sharper, his chin was nearly dislocated, and his skin turned lavender.
"He still can't control his bloodthirsty instincts and is about to go berserk; it seems that the vampire who gave him his "first embrace" is not high enough that he hasn't learned to control his desires yet! "
Lei Yi has already seen it without the night sky bell reminding him.
The old Earl of Motley didn't have any rationality now, what he had was instinct, just like a hungry beast.
"Do it!" Lei Yi took the lead in taking action, and the moment the old earl made a move, he swung his fist to block it.
boom!
His fist collided with the opponent's knight sword, but then the two retreated separately.
"What a strong power!" Lei Yi could clearly feel that the old earl's aura at this moment was only around the beginning of the seventh level, but his power had become extremely powerful.
"This is the ability of the blood race. The power of this race is greater than that of ordinary people, and it is also faster. It can increase the effect of some dark spells, but its weakness is..."
Before explaining what the weakness was, Ye Kongling was forced to retreat by a cyan sword glow, and was unable to utter half a sentence.
However, Lei Yi immediately understood the second half of the sentence and looked at Ingrid at the same time.
"Ingrid, Holy Light!" He rushed towards the latter quickly, while motioning for the latter to cast the coat of arms.
But this time, Ingrid hesitated.
"Under the orders of His Majesty Diggs, get the secrets of the Gustav family, and kill everyone who knows!" The old earl suddenly roared.
He waved the long sword in his hand indiscriminately, cutting out streaks of blue sword lights, and bombarded Gustav's old house.
Rumble!
Under his attack, the already crumbling walls of the old house began to collapse, and the roar of the explosion spread hundreds of meters around.
"Ingrid, if you don't act quickly, we will all be exposed, and your grandfather will also be discovered by the patrolling knights. What will happen to him, I don't need to say more!"
Seeing that Ingrid was still hesitating, Lei Yi immediately comforted her.
Although Diggs colluded with the Church of Evernight, at least on the bright side, he could not reveal his identity.
If a vampire is found in Roland's capital, even if the opponent is the old Earl Cabriel, he will eventually die.
Lei Yi's words are not wrong, instead of letting the old Earl of Cabriel be executed, it is better to give him a good time here!
In the end, after weighing the pros and cons, Ingrid moved.
She rushed towards Lei Yi quickly, and Lei Yi also acted immediately when he saw this, rushing towards him.
The old earl's eyes had completely turned blood red at this moment, and the pupils and the whites of the eyes could not be distinguished.
At this moment, all he could feel was the movement of blood, and right in front of him, two figures were meeting.
The instinct of the blood race made him also set off immediately, rushing towards the two people in front of him.
His speed was so fast that he even rushed in front of one of them the moment the two met.
"Blood!" He waved the long sword in his hand, and slashed towards the main artery in the man's neck.
"Ingrid!" Lei Yi looked at the old count who was rushing forward and had already swung his sword, and shouted at his companions in front of him.
The next moment, a hand was placed on his shoulder, and then a familiar golden light lit up.
"Ah—" The old earl's body was suddenly flooded with golden light.
From his throat, there was a scream of endless pain, but it could no longer stop his body from being "purified" by the holy light.
In the light, his body was swallowed by the flames, and the black mist surged, but it melted instantly in the golden light.
The sword in his hand wanted to cut down, but it fell on an extremely solid barrier. Finally, as his arm was engulfed by flames, the long sword fell to the ground.
When the golden light faded away, the old Earl Cabriel's body burst into flames, turning into a charred black corpse, and slowly fell to the ground.
"Ingrid...congratulations...for getting the...sword of sacrifice..."
In the charred body, the old count exhausted his last strength and said such a sentence.
Then, his body was completely reduced to ashes in a gust of wind.
"Retreat quickly, time is life!" Lei Yi didn't have time to care about this scene, he picked up Ingrid, and rushed to the night sky bell beside him.
Afterwards, the figures of the three of them got into a layer of light and left the place in an instant.
boom!
Just after the three left, a huge coercion descended on Gustav's old house.
The figure of the white lion Priestley slowly descended from the sky, and finally stood in the middle of the ruined old house of Gustav.
"Is old Earl Cabriel dead?" Looking at the pile of ashes on the ground, Priestley seemed to guess the cause and effect.
His eyes searched around, thinking about what to look for, but finally shook his head.
"It seems that the secret kept by Gustav's family has been taken away by that little girl!"
Priestley flew up and looked at the entire capital, but found no trace of Ingrid.
