The Original Vampire

The latest website: East Border, Bailu City.

The Bailu Fort of the Saint Prooss family is located in the center of Bailu City, surrounded by the noble district of Bailu City. Civilians, let alone living here, must have a pass to enter and exit.

Beyond the aristocratic area is the commercial area. This is where wealthy and wealthy businessmen gather. Although the geographical location is not bad, and the buildings may not be much less shabby than the aristocratic area, no nobles are willing to live here. The rich are still commoners, which is fundamentally different from the aristocracy.

However, there is one family exception - the Hall family.

The Hall family lives outside the aristocratic area of ​​Bailu City, not because of their poor family background or low title. On the contrary, the Hall family is notoriously wealthy in the Eastern Territory. As for the title, it is a serious hereditary earl of the empire. family.

They live in the business district because the ancestors of the Hall family were merchants.

Noble titles cannot be purchased with money, but when you have enough money, you can buy a noblewoman with noble blood, and a baptismal place that is extremely precious to commoners.

As a result, the Hall family got the admission ticket of the nobles.

As for how they gradually climbed from a wild knight family to the position of earl of the empire, I really have to thank the mages of Yeville.

If they hadn't cast the Forbidden Spell to destroy the original Bailu City, causing a large number of Dongjing families to break their inheritance, and a large number of titles to be vacant, the Hall family would not have the opportunity to take advantage of the situation.

Moreover, during the most difficult and dangerous period of the Eastern Region, the Hall family saw the opportunity to spend a lot of money to help the Saint Pros family rebuild the White Dew City, and only then did they officially enter the imperial aristocracy.

In addition, the descendants of the Hall family are also quite competitive. Although they are descendants of merchants, they are full of military virtue and have made military contributions. Gradually, the title of the Hall family has been gradually elevated to earl, becoming the most influential in the East. one of the family.

But if you really want to talk about the strength of martial arts and the rank of knights, the members of the Hall family are indeed somewhat incapable. After all, their ancestors were commoners and their bloodlines were mixed. Even if they continued to improve their family bloodlines through marriages again and again, they would not be able to compete with those in a short period of time. Compared with the old-fashioned nobles who have passed on for thousands of years.

However, the ancestors of the Hall family are indeed very smart, and they know the truth of promoting strengths and avoiding weaknesses. The members of this family join the army, without exception, they all enter the navy, but never go to the army.

The reason is very simple to put it bluntly. Compared with the army's unfancy frontal collision on land, naval operations rely more on warships and group cooperation, and the requirements for individual strength are much lower.

Moreover, with the strength of the navy in the East, there is no opponent who can stand a fight on the Furious River.

Earl Hall is in his fifties this year. He is tall and burly, with deep hair, and his skin has a healthy bronze color. He also has a rough feeling that has been honed by wind and rain, which is obviously different from the generally pampered Eastern nobles.

His features were deep, his gray-brown eyes were piercing, a glossy reindeer leather bandage was tied around his broad forehead, and his long blond hair and beard were braided with fishbone headbands.

At this time, Earl Hall was meeting a luxuriously dressed guest in the living room.

Different from Earl Hall's roughness, this guest is a typical eastern noble, with fair skin and handsome appearance, with convincing majesty and elegance in his gestures.

Wearing the same earl's dress on his body and wearing it on Earl Hall are completely two concepts.

This person is the Earl of Brugen, an old-fashioned aristocrat from the East.

The two Earls of the East Territory with completely different styles have one thing in common - they are both supporters of Marquis Vincent.

Especially Earl Hall, he even married his precious daughter to Marquis Vincent.

Now that Marquis Vincent is trapped in Silvermoon City, the two earls are naturally anxious.

"Earl Bruggen, what news have you got? Are you in such a hurry to see me?" Earl Hall's loud voice echoed in the living room.

Earl Brugen pointed to his ear with disgust, and said, "This is not on your battleship. The sound is quieter, my ears can't stand it."

Earl Hall snorted softly, disdain for Earl Brugen's pretentiousness, but also lowered the volume a little.

Earl Brugen actually despised this lowly born Earl Hall full of fishy smell from the bottom of his heart. If the situation was not critical at this time, the Brugen family must unite with the Hall family. Willing to come to this mansion in the business district.

"Fei Yinjue has already returned. Calculate the time, and he should arrive at Bailu City tomorrow."

"Oh? What news did this kid bring back? What redemption conditions did the people from the north put forward?"

"Northerners are unwilling to accept the proposal of exchanging the city for Marquis Vincent, they insist on warships..."

"Beautiful thoughts!" Earl Bruggen had not finished speaking, Earl Hall roared, and the huge sound wave shook the crystal chandeliers on the ceiling.

Earl Bruggen only felt as if he was being blown by a powerful wind and waves, he quickly held his breath, frowned, and repeatedly stretched out his hand to press down, saying:

"Okay, I know those battleships are your darlings, but if you can really exchange the battleships for Marquis Vincent, wouldn't you agree?"

Earl Hall was panting heavily and didn't speak for a while, apparently tacitly agreeing.

But then, he realized that there was something wrong in Earl Brugen's words, and asked in confusion: "How can I listen to you, you can't replace the Marquis Vincent with a battleship?"

Earl Brugen sighed and said, "I got the news that Marquis Vincent may have had an accident..."

"What?!" Earl Hall abruptly stood up, his eyes the size of copper bells staring at Earl Brugen, "What is an accident?"

Earl Hall's surprise made Earl Brugen agitated, and the more he realized that the foolish earl in front of him might not be able to be his help.

"Marquis Vincent suffered an assassination after being captured. Although the people from the North have always claimed that the Marquis is not a serious problem, it is said that Lord Fei Ying has found out that the Marquis has actually been assassinated..."

Bang!

Earl Hall slapped the armrest of the seat to pieces and shouted:

"Fin can believe what that kid said? He is from Evan, and I wish Marquis Vincent died in Silvermoon City!

I dare to conclude that he deliberately made up such a lie because he did not want Marquis Vincent to return to the Eastern Territory safely! "

Earl Bruggen rarely agreed with Earl Hall's opinion this time, and nodded: "I think so too, after Lord Fei Ying arrives in Bailu City tomorrow, you and I will go to meet the Duke together, and we can't let Lord Fei Yin arrive. Misleading the Duke's judgment."

"it is good!"

"In addition, Earl Evan has left the North, do you have any information on his current whereabouts?"

"No. That kid is slippery, obviously hiding his tracks on purpose, and it's hard for me to find him for a while."

Earl Brugen frowned and asked in a deep voice, "You said, why did Earl Evan deliberately hide his whereabouts?"

"How would I know," Earl Hall shouted gruffly, "that kid is not always like this, mysteriously, he doesn't know what the hell is going on."

Seeing that he couldn't discuss anything of value with this idiot, Earl Brugen sighed to himself, made an appointment with Earl Hall to see the Duke of St. Pros tomorrow, and then got up and said goodbye.
