The Original Vampire

The morning sun slowly penetrated the clouds, reflecting the golden rays of light on the land.

The unknown weeds stretched their bodies under the rays of the rising sun, greedily absorbing the blood that had not yet solidified on the battlefield.

A flock of vultures hovered in midair. They were death revelers who would never be absent. From time to time, they flew down to snatch a piece of carrion, but were immediately chased away by the eastern soldiers sweeping the battlefield.

Count Nicole sat in a trance on the battle horse, the strong smell of blood wafting from time to time made him feel nauseated, and the piles of corpses on the battlefield made the old count almost faint.

Count Nicole was not injured in this battle, except for the fact that he ran around in shock and caused the helmet to fall somewhere.

But even if he was unscathed, the old earl seemed to have his spine taken away, his hunched waist and gray hair seemed to have aged ten years all of a sudden.

The encounter came suddenly and ended extremely quickly.

When the blood cavalry army came up, it gave a fatal blow to the coalition army of the lords of the east, and then left floating.

In fact, the allied lord army was completely stunned at that time. If the blood cavalry army turned their horses and charged back and forth several times, this huge and bloated lord coalition army would immediately fall apart.

If the blood cavalry army takes advantage of the victory to cover up the past, I am afraid that few people here will be able to escape with their lives.

Don't look at Bailu City, but if the lord coalition collapses, even if the defeated troops escape to Bailu City, the people in the city will not dare to open the city gate to receive it.

Fortunately, the blood cavalry army did not mean to drive them out.

Count Nicole didn't feel that the other party was benevolent or that he was incapable of doing it, but more like...it was unnecessary.

It was as if a giant slapped a few flies to death, and the rest of the flies were frightened to fly around, but the giant would not chase after the flies and slap them to death one by one.

Of course, if the flies come to die next time, the giants will definitely not forgive them.

Thinking of this, a strong humiliation and humiliation flooded into his heart, and Count Nicole's old face flushed red.

Everyone knew that the Eastern Border Army was extremely weak, but no one thought that the gap between them and the Northern Border would be so great!

In the past, Earl Nicole was very fortunate that there was a natural moat in the Eastern Territory, but now, he suddenly felt that the Angry River was not a barrier in the Eastern Territory, but more like a cage.

It locks the Easterners in this greenhouse, but when the real storm comes, the flowers in the greenhouse will only be ruthlessly destroyed.

On the other hand, although the threat of trolls made the northern realm unbearable, it also helped the northern realm to temper an extremely terrifying invincible iron cavalry!

Only a blood cavalry army of more than 20,000 people can turn the eastern border of Nuoda upside down.

Earl Nicole suddenly felt a bit of confusion - where is the future road of the East Territory?

"Lord Count."

While thinking about it, the adjutant came over, holding the lost helmet of Count Nicole in his hand.

Count Nicole sighed, took his helmet, but didn't put it on, and asked in a deep voice, "How about the casualties?"

"The statistics have not yet been completed, but according to preliminary estimates, nearly 30,000 people died in the impact of the blood cavalry..."

The corner of Count Nicole's mouth twitched,

Blood is dripping in my heart.

He also knew that, in fact, the casualties caused by the blood cavalry army in just one wave of charge could not be so great. More people may have trampled each other to death while escaping for their lives, and many people should have deserted in panic. It was included in the "Deaths".

Seeing that Earl Nicole had been silent for a long time, the adjutant reminded in a low voice:

"Lord Count, let's enter the city as soon as possible, in case the blood cavalry is killed again..."

Count Nicole just woke up like a dream, and said repeatedly: "Yes, yes, immediately send orders to gather the army and march towards Bailu City!"

"Yes!"

Under this order, the lord coalition reacted extremely quickly, even if the battlefield had not been cleaned up, but they could no longer care about it.

Everyone's idea is to enter the city immediately, and never meet the blood cavalry army on the battlefield in this life.

...

"Lord Count, this way please."

Count Nicole walked behind the butler towards the inner courtyard of Fort Bailu, and lowered his head, thinking about how to explain it to him when he saw the Duke of St. Pros later.

While pondering, Earl Nicole did not notice the extremely depressing atmosphere that pervaded the castle.

Before coming to the Duke's study, Count Nicole adjusted his collar and gently knocked on the wooden door.

"come in."

Hearing the voice of the Duchess, Count Nicole didn't care, and immediately pushed in the door.

There were two people in the study, but apart from the Duchess, the other person was not the Duke of St. Pros that Count Nicole thought, but Ivan St. Pros.

Earl Nicole was slightly puzzled, but he still stepped forward to greet him.

Even though this Ivan did not have a title and was just a knight from a sideline of the St. Pros family, Count Nicole's attitude was equally respectful.

Because, Ivan Knight's older brother, Imerson St. Pros, is the consul of the Eastern Front in the Senate.

Therefore, although Ivan Knight is average in strength and prestige, he is a very important figure in the Saint Pros family.

The Duchess motioned for Earl Nicole to take a seat, and then asked, "Count Nicole, how is the situation outside the city?"

Earl Nicole looked embarrassed, but he had no choice but to report the situation of the war outside the city.

Of course, in this process, he will inevitably avoid the important and find some excuses for himself, but no matter how he whitewashes it, he cannot change the established fact that the blood cavalry army has defeated the lord coalition army and successfully broke through.

The Duchess quietly listened to Count Nicole's narration, but did not blame, but helped to explain:

"Count Nicole, you really can't blame you for this. No one thought that the blood cavalry army would choose to evacuate so decisively. Under the circumstances at that time, no one could stop the blood cavalry army who wanted to break through."

"Thank you for your understanding!" Count Nicole breathed a sigh of relief, but then asked again, "I don't know where the Duke is now, no matter what reason I have this time, I have lost a battle, so I want to pray to the Duke in person. forgiveness."

As soon as these words came out, the scene suddenly became quiet.

The Duchess's face was full of deep sorrow, and Knight Ivan also lowered his head, as if mourning silently.

Count Nicole also blinked suspiciously, thinking that he had said something wrong.

But then, he heard a shocking news from the duchess:

"Count Nicole, the Duke of St. Pros was assassinated at the Hall Manor. I'm afraid it's already a lot worse..."

"What... what?" Earl Nicole opened his mouth wide and didn't recover for a while.

But immediately, he immediately asked: "Listen to what you mean, it is not yet certain whether the Duke has been killed?"

"According to the knight Muffat who was present at the time, the duke was stabbed in the right chest with a spear and stabbed in the heart with a dagger... But because the duke was taken away by the Northlanders, his life and death cannot be determined.

but……"

The Duchess covered her mouth and seemed unable to control her pain.

Count Nicole's brain was in chaos, and it felt like the sky was falling.

At this time, it was Knight Ivan who persuaded: "The Duchess, Lord Count, now is not the time to grieve. Although the Blood Cavalry Army has retreated for the time being, who knows if it will make a comeback.

The most urgent task at the moment is to determine a duke heir, let him preside over the overall situation and stabilize people's hearts. "

"You're right." The Duchess took a deep breath, tried to calm down, then turned to look at Count Nicole and asked:

"Lord Count, who do you think is more suitable to inherit the title of Duke of the Eastern Region?"
