I work as a housekeeper in Guilou

Chapter 96 The Bloody Castle (Forty-four)

Noefels' prophecy of the demise of the vampire race corresponds to the dissipation of the vampire race in the second article; Biersa's prophecy that a turning point will surely come corresponds to the dawn of new life in the third article.

These words were engraved on the altar. The person who engraved these words must have a close relationship with the vampire family.

These carvings do not look like works from recent times. They appear to be old and show traces of time.

Maybe it was carved by Liviu Coriades. This can only be regarded as a possibility. There is no evidence and it cannot be stated.

Xia Qimiao placed a green vine from the Devouring Rose in the center of the blood formation, but no special movement occurred.

The three of them explored the room again, not even letting go of the cracks in the rocks, but no other clues were found. These should be all the things in the sacrificial room.

They walked out of the inner door. This time, there were no twists and turns, and there was only one path leading to the outside. They walked out smoothly.

It is daytime on the fourth day.

The sky is still blood-colored, and Xia Qimiao cannot see the sun through the thick clouds. Does the sun really exist?
  This strange question suddenly popped up in her mind.

Ever since she entered the town, it seemed that she had never seen a normal sky or a normal sun.

Oh no, at the very beginning, she saw the sunset at the gate of the town. This was the only normal memory she had.

Maybe she went in the wrong direction. If she had not walked into the town at that time, but walked towards the sun, would there have been a different harvest?

This thought flashed through her mind for a moment, and then she dismissed it.

The past cannot be recalled, and she cannot go back to the past, so she will focus on the present.

She looked at the huge tree in front of her. Its bark seemed to have been soaked in blood for a long time, and it was the same color as blood.

There were heavy fruits falling on the branches, and they were all bent under the weight of the fruits.

This may be the blood tree that produces the specialty berries that the heir mentioned.

"Why do you feel that these fruits look a bit awkward?" Da Mosaic rubbed the goose bumps on her arms. She looked at them and felt that her hair was about to stand up.

"It's a little bit." Xiao Mosaic agreed, but she couldn't tell where it got twisted.

Xia Qimiao threw out a vine and knocked down one of the fruits.

It spun around on the ground and turned to Xia Qimiao's feet.

Only then did she realize that the fruit had two sides. The front, or rather the back, looked like the ordinary fruit they had just seen, while the other side showed a human face with its eyes closed.

She held the vine tightly and walked to the other side. She was surprised to find that the tree was full of inverted human faces, as if the stems were their necks and the branches were their shared bodies.

[Talent - Coward is taking effect, and your attack value is increasing sharply. 】

"negotiation."

[The skill failed to be used, please note that the skill is used on a sane object that remains, and this object is not within the scope of skill negotiation~]

The tree was not part of her negotiations, which meant it was either irrational or not a charlatan.

The Devouring Rose gave birth to a huge rose, spreading its petals to cover the ugly fruit.

When it presented the fruit to the poster, it was very considerate and only showed its normal side, allowing the fruit to face the owner with a barely passable surface.

This was much better than the last time when it held her head directly. He has a strong learning ability and corrects his mistakes immediately. He is really a good child.

However, is she too preoccupied? Why does it feel like it is extra attentive today?

The Rose that was trying its best to gain favor in front of the poster didn't know that its excessive enthusiasm had made the owner suspicious of it. Seeing that she didn't extend her hand, it thought she was too dirty and didn't want to touch it, so it consciously poked it. The skin of the fruit revealed the fat blood worms inside.

"Ahhh!" Da Mosaic screamed three times in a row, joy overflowing from her voice, and the color on her face turned red, as if she was extremely excited and happy.

She held a peeled fruit in her hand, carefully picked up the blood worm and held it in her hand, looking at it like a treasure.

"This is the blood worm I saw in the illusion. I broke the statue standing next to me, and what was exposed was this kind of worm."

Xiao Mosaic's performance was not much better, she was just a little more reserved than her elder sister, and her cheeks were just a little pink.

Although Xia Qimiao was not afraid of insects, she didn't like them much, and she couldn't show the same expression towards them as the sisters did.

She subconsciously analyzed that this was probably related to their abilities, skills? talent? Or is there some connection in reality?
  "Ah!" Da Mosaic shouted again, this time not with joy, but with surprise and astonishment.

The bug in her hand broke away from the fruit, exploded into blood mist and disappeared.

It was true that she was so happy that she felt sad. The redness on her face faded and she was almost pale.

If the color blocks could show expression, her smiling face would have turned into a crying face.

"This bloodworm cannot survive without the fruit. If you want it to survive, you can feed it with the blood juice of other bugs."

When Xia Qimiao shared information with them, she always focused on the key points, so this part was skipped at the time. She had no intention of hiding anything and shared it when they needed it.

"Thank you!" Da Mosaic cheered up again. She wanted to pick a few more to collect some blood juice, but Amei stopped her.

Xiao Mosaic looked at Xia Qimiao: "Do you need these things?"

The younger sister seems to be more understanding of the world than the elder sister.

"What if I say I need it?"

Xia Qimiao looked at the rattan, which was poking the bloodworm's head repeatedly to prevent it from escaping.

She just heard the sound of rattling in its rattan, which was exactly the same as the sound of eating strange rocks in the strange building before.

It must have been greedy, and was eating a small piece of treacherous rock "bribed" to it by fried ice cream to satisfy its craving.

Since it seemed to like it, there was no reason for her to give everything away to others.

Xiao Mosaic hesitated for a moment, looked at the fruits on the tree, and roughly calculated the quantity: "These... props are very important to us. I wonder if you are willing to share them equally with us? If you agree, we will do it later. We are willing to share the intelligence we can analyze.”

They can obtain information from fruits or blood worms, which is quite valuable.

Xia Qimiao also glanced at it. If she divided it half and half, she could probably get one hundred and fifty fruits and feed one to her pet in the morning, noon and night. She could feed her for fifty days, neither too long nor too short.

"Seven three, I'm seven and you three, and I want that tree."

　Thanks for the collection, thanks for the recommendation vote, and thanks for the monthly vote!
