The Original Vampire

Winter City welcomed the dwarf messenger again.

This is already the third time that Count Anka has been dispatched in a short period of time, but this time, he is not alone.

Accompanying him was Earl Falco Dawson, the eldest son of Marquis Dawson.

Unlike the unreliable Wells, Earl Falco, as the eldest son of Marquis Dawson, really has the demeanor of the heir to the Dawson family. Moreover, he works calmly and is highly valued by Marquis Dawson.

Obviously, this time, the Dawson family is no longer worried about letting the Maynum family negotiate with the Saint Hilde family alone.

Of course, this can also be considered as a clear proof that the Maynum family and the Dawson family are intimate and thwarted the enemy's conspiracy.

As for the mentality of the two dwarf families, it is estimated that only the parties themselves know.

However, seeing this battle, Colin resolutely took Vera to hide, and let Master Dawn deal with the dwarf messenger.

He knew that with both Dawson and Maynum present, the peace talks could no longer make any meaningful progress.

So, Maester Dawn chatted with the two dwarf counts for a whole day, seemingly arguing with each other.

Although Count Anka and Count Falco were annoyed, they were helpless, because Maester Dawn had always maintained a friendly and positive attitude, as if they were really willing to reach a peace agreement with the dwarves, but they could not agree on certain conditions for the time being.

At the dinner party, the Angele couple who had disappeared all day finally appeared.

Earl of Anka and Earl of Falco got together and tangled for a while, but they didn't get any meaningful answer, Colin just kept saying: "You talk to Master Dawn, he can fully represent the Saint Hilde family. "

In desperation, the two dwarf counts had no choice but to give up, secretly figuring out how to deal with this seemingly friendly but actually extremely difficult Master Dawn tomorrow.

As the night got darker, somewhere in the southern district of Winter City suddenly became lively.

It used to be a deserted open space, and now many simple tents have been built densely.

The camp was surrounded by a fence of thorns, and there was a sign at the entrance - Prisoner Camp.

At the Battle of Running River, the Golden Lions defeated the Dawson family's river-crossing army and captured about 15,000 prisoners of war.

After entering Winter City, these dwarf captives were placed here, and no one cared about them except for a daily meal that kept them from starving to death.

It's just that tonight, there seems to be some important person in the camp.

"What's the matter? What happened?" the dwarf captive Holmen asked his companions in a low voice.

"do not know."

After asking several times in a row, I couldn't get a definite answer.

In the midst of doubts, Holman suddenly discovered that there were bursts of cheers coming from the front, as if he had received some great news.

"What's the matter? Are you going to let us go?"

Holman scratched his ears and cheeks anxiously, trying to figure out what was going on, but couldn't get in front of him.

But it didn't take long for his squad leader to run back excitedly, shouting: "The Saint Hilde family and the Dawson family have reached an agreement that there will be no more war! We can go home!"

"Really...really? Can you go home?" The happiness came so suddenly that Holmen couldn't believe it for a while.

And the dwarf comrades around him have already started to howl with excitement.

"Then when are we leaving? Tomorrow?"

"No, let us go later!"

"So fast!"

Holman was excited, and couldn't wait to leave this place that brought him bad memories.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for the gate to the prisoner camp to be fully opened, and the dwarves lined up in a neat queue under the orders of the officers and slowly walked out.

On the way, Holmen also saw the figure of General Tumu.

As a fifth-order warrior, General Toumu had a high prestige in the Dawson family's army, but after he was captured, he suddenly disappeared mysteriously, and he didn't know where he went.

But at this time, his reappearance also made the hearts of the captives reassured.

Although they have been hungry these days, the dwarf captives still cheered up and marched forward in an orderly manner according to the orders of the Golden Lion Legion.

Holman was also in the queue, looking around as he walked. After half an hour, he found that he had arrived at the city gate.

The open city gate looked dark and terrifying in the dark, but in the eyes of the dwarf captives, it was a door to hope.

It wasn't until he walked out of Winter City that Holm was finally sure that he was saved!

Outside the city gate, there is also a device office.

Every dwarven captive passing there will receive a weapon.

Holman also got a long knife. Although his original set of leather armor and bows and arrows should not come back, the long knife still gave him some peace of mind.

The atmosphere in the team gradually became warm, and some dwarf captives even sang battle songs to celebrate their new life.

There are few stars tonight, and the boundless darkness covers the earth. In this dark night, I don’t know what is waiting for these dwarf captives.

Holman should also sing along with his comrades, his footsteps brisk, and even the hunger that had enveloped him for a while was temporarily gone.

Suddenly, the team in front stopped.

In the darkness, the military orders were not communicated smoothly, and there was a little confusion in the dwarf captives, but they were quickly suppressed by the officers.

"What's wrong?" Holm's heart asked again.

"I met the sentry of the Maynum family." The team leader comforted.

Holmen was relieved, and then excited again, because it means that they are very close to the dwarf camp, and they may be able to eat hot food soon!

Just as Holman was immersed in the fantasy of food and his saliva was drooling down, there was another commotion in front of him.

"what happened again?"

"I'll take a look at the front, you stay where you are, don't run around!" The team leader ordered a few words, and went to check the situation.

Holmen had to wait patiently, but the hunger that had disappeared suddenly reappeared, and it was much more violent than before, almost making Holmen unable to control himself.

As time passed, the dwarven captive team still had no order to move forward.

And the patience of Holman and others also disappeared rapidly in this endless waiting, and anxiety and anger gradually spread among the prisoners.

"Why don't you let us go back!"

"Why don't you let us go back!"

...

There was a sudden shout from the front.

Holman was on the verge of breaking out at this moment, just in time to see the squad leader running back with a look of anger.

"Captain, what's going on ahead?"

"People from the Maynum family won't let us enter the camp!"

"why?"

"They said that there was no news of the release of the prisoners at all, and they also said that the family messenger is still in Winter City and has not reached an agreement with the Saint Hilde family at all."

"Fuck! We're all back, how could there be no agreement? If no agreement is reached, the Golden Lions will let us go?"

Just when Holmen was angry, the riots ahead suddenly started to escalate, and there were continuous sounds of fierce fighting and screams.

"We're going home!"

"We are not enemies!"

"We want to see Lord Marquis Dawson!"

...

I don't know who provoked it. In short, the dwarf captives confronted the Menam family, and the words became more and more fierce, and they gradually became out of control.

Boom!

The earth suddenly trembled, only General Tu Mu smashed the giant hammer to the ground and roared:

"Who dares to stop me!"

After he finished speaking, he took the lead and rushed into the army formation of the Maynum family.

His behavior was as if a spark had fallen into the hot oil, instantly detonating a raging fire!

The dwarf captives, who had become extremely restless during the long hunger and waiting, broke out completely at this time. Under the leadership of General Toum, they rushed to the position of the Menam family.

The night was dark, but the killing had quietly begun.
