Chapter 101 The Blood Shadow About to Cover the City
"Liuying, what should we do? We originally wanted to go to Count Werman to inquire about relevant matters, but we happened to meet Shalan Werman. Should we still go to Count Werman now?"
Shaking his head, Liuying glanced at the vast Werman Manor and said, "No, Count Werman cannot possibly give a different answer from Shalan Werman, so we don't need to do that useless work. Besides, the nobles in the Seven Nations Alliance of Orlan don't have a good impression of our secret mobile team, so we'd better avoid contact with them if possible.
In addition, Luo She, have you completed the blockade of Snake Forest Apartments? The spirits that have been wreaking havoc in Xinxia City recently are deliberately approaching Snake Forest Apartments. There must be some changes there. I have already reported it to the headquarters of the Secret Mobile Team. Before the headquarters sends people, we still have to block the place as much as possible to minimize casualties! "
"I understand, but the spirits are wreaking havoc in Cynthia City. Don't we have any way to deal with them? Even if it's just reducing the number of spirits' activities, it would be fine."
"Except for warlocks and some aliens, there is basically no way to deal with spirits. Bloodline knights and secret warriors like us, unless we have awakened powerful bloodline abilities or condensed some special spirits, have no way to deal with spirits at all. No matter swordsmanship or firearms, they are not effective against spirits. There is no way to fight them directly."
Sighing, Luo She nodded helplessly and said, "This is the only way for now. The current situation in Xinxia City is very serious. We can only try our best to make the situation relatively stable. As for the rest, we can only wait until the reinforcements of the Secret Mobile Team arrive."
…
Shalan changed into a bathrobe and looked at Sally who was waiting outside the bathroom door and said, "Sally, is the manor okay?"
"Reporting to the young master, everything is normal at the manor, but the Earl and Lord Hasid are still as busy as ever, even busier than before."
"So busy? But that's normal. Cynthia City has been unstable recently, so it's normal."
After saying this, Shalan asked Sally to leave his room, and he lay down on the bed and had a good sleep. When he woke up, the sun had already set and the night had covered most of the sky.
After stretching, Shallan changed into her home clothes, opened the door, and immediately saw Sally waiting outside.
"Master Shalan, the Earl has postponed the dinner time. We still have about ten minutes left."
"Dinner? Then let's go have dinner now. I'm really hungry."
Ever since she forcibly condensed thirty-three blood-colored life seeds in the blood pool, Shalan's demand for food has become greater and greater. In addition, she did not eat anything at noon, so Shalan is now starving.
When Sharan walked to the dining table, she only saw Luo Er and Shaman. As for Vanessa, she did not appear here.
As if seeing Shalan's confusion, Luo Er said directly: "Shalan, your mother said that she has been feeling unwell in the past few days, so I asked her to stay in her room and recuperate. Don't walk around casually, otherwise it will be bad if you get a cold. You don't have to worry about her dinner. I have asked someone to deliver dinner to her room."
Hearing this, Shallan guessed immediately that Vanessa probably didn't want to see them father and son anymore, as the relationship was almost at rift. However, Luo Er went even further and placed Vanessa under semi-house arrest. It was probably unlikely that she would be able to leave the Werman Manor now.
Nodding with a smile, Shalan said hello to the silent Shaman and started to eat dinner. He ate much more than before. If Rawl had not asked the servants to prepare three more dinners and brought them up halfway, Shalan would probably have to go to the kitchen to find food by himself.
While eating, Shaman bowed to Shalan and Luo Er after dinner, left the banquet hall and returned to his room without saying a word.
Looking at Shaman leaving the banquet hall, Luo Er's eyes revealed a trace of helplessness and sadness, as if he was talking to Shalan, or as if he was talking to himself: "Since you have chosen the Franklin family, you are no longer a member of the Werman family. You can only bear the consequences yourself."
After swallowing a whole steak, Shalan wiped his mouth and said to Luo Er, "Father, when the Franklin family's affairs are settled, we can just teach Shaman again. It should still be in time."
Looking at Shalan with a half-smile, Luo Er said, "Shalan, you seem to have a lot of confidence in me."
"You are my father, so I naturally have confidence in you. I never thought that you would be unprepared before using the resources of the Franklin family to make our Werman family prosperous again."
Raising his eyebrows slightly, Luo Er showed a satisfied look on his face, nodded and said, "Very good, since you have such observation and thinking ability, I can be said to be more than half assured about your future.
But by the way, how was the result of your participation in the archaeological activity this time? Do you have the confidence to get a place in the History Department of the University of Birona?"
After eating another piece of buttered bread , Shalan nodded and said, "It should be no problem. According to what Teacher Fu said, I can get a place in the recommended school. However, before the official admission notice comes, it is better for me to continue to go to school. Today happens to be Saturday, so I will take a day off tomorrow and go directly to school the day after tomorrow, Monday."
"It's good that you have a plan. Leave the affairs of the Franklin family to me. Your goal is to enrich yourself. Don't give up on either the training of knights or the learning of knowledge."
"I understand father."
…
While Shalan and Luo Er were talking at the dinner table, a truck slowly stopped in the suburbs of Cynthia City. After the car stopped, Silaya got out of the car with a pale face and slightly red pupils. They opened the truck compartment at the rear of the car, and the truck suddenly vibrated. Two living armors wearing wide black cloaks walked out of the compartment, and stood respectfully behind Silaya like two giant bodyguards.
Looking at the city of Cynthia in front of her, Silaya took a deep breath and said with a hint of intoxication, "What a wonderful smell! The fragrance emanating from the young men and women in the entire city almost makes me salivate. I can't wait to enter the shadow of this city and taste the blood of those fallen young men and women."
