Game timeAM09:17
Violet Empire, Marshall Territory, Mercury City
Sylvia Shuangrui, the deputy head of the Ice Curtain Mage Group under the Marshall Family, got up half an hour late as usual. She lazily stretched her proud body, and then casually put the one next to the pillow that looked only fourteen The five-year-old human girl with dull eyes hugged her in her arms and kissed her, then dawdled for a while before starting to change clothes.

ten minutes later
Sylvia wore her favorite set of sky blue deep V robes with the least fabric, and left the Ice Curtain Mage Tower in the north of Mercury City. It is the residence of all Mage Corps members. It will take several laps, and there are mountains of magic crystals, well-equipped experimental sites, a well-stocked library, and various comfortable and convenient magic circles and enchantments. Continuously creating water elements so that mages can meditate more efficiently. In addition, this natural guiding crystal worth at least [-] gold coins is also a weapon. When the supply of magic power is sufficient, [ The Winter Prism] can infinitely launch freezing pulses once every three minutes when the enemy is attacking. Not only does it have a terrifying range of up to three kilometers, but its power is equivalent to a high-level magician's full blow.

but……

For Sylvia, the most satisfying part of this mage's tower, which is regarded as a holy place by countless Marshallese, is only the super large bedroom where she can play wild and entertain herself, and the rest is just so-so.

Even though Sylvia was just a high-level water mage, she never thought that the silly-looking tower would help her, especially if she was using it with so many people.

She is not a simple mage, nor is she a simple elf~
The long aqua blue hair was scarlet before the dyeing ointment...

Those pale gold eyes are also scarlet after taking off the 'Phantom Pupils'...

If the smooth, white and tender skin is not 'moisturized' regularly, it will slowly turn into a sickly pale...

Of course, Sylvia's pretty face is the original one. After all, bloodseekers rarely have strange-looking characters. Natural bloodseekers are basically handsome men and beautiful women, and those who look ugly or just look ugly People who don't have a chance to get 'Blood Embrace'.

Yes, the deputy head of the Ice Curtain Mage Group is not just an elf or a high-ranking mage, she is also a wandering bloodseeker without family protection. Sin Continent wanders around, relying on her proud appearance and equally proud strength, Sylvia has been living a luxurious and carefree life, and there is almost no dissatisfaction except that she can't stay in one place for too long. place.

And Buffy Marshall, on the premise of giving her continued luxury and worry-free, also guaranteed the stability of Sylvia's life, plus the former is willing to provide her with various high-quality 'delicious' on a regular basis, Sylvia naturally So he reciprocated and joined the Ice Curtain Mage Group, and by the way, secretly served as a senior advisor to the Second Slave Hunting Group. The main tasks were to select loyal and good seedlings from the mage group and participate in some large-scale slave hunting plans from time to time~
To be honest, she prefers the slave hunting group to the empty title of the deputy group leader. They are full of little villains that suit Sylvia's appetite. Although some members who are too perverted make her feel a little disgusted, the overall atmosphere But still good~
However, because the slave hunting group has not made any arrangements recently, and the Grand Duke of Marshall rushed to Salamune because of the plague, Sylvia, who has no tasks and reports, can be said to be quite leisurely during this time. She has nothing to do except show up at the city hall and the mage tower every day, so she has been following the principles of sleeping until she wakes up naturally, going out for a walk to find high-quality food, going to the city hall for a cup of tea, and returning to the mage tower for a drink The law of tea is leisurely.

Of course, the matter of 'searching for high-quality food' is usually fruitless. After all, this is the center of the Marshall Territory. People who are eligible to live in Mercury City, even if they are only civilians, are the closest civilians to their families. Sylvia would basically not attack if she stayed, and those mercenaries, adventurers, or caravans rarely had prey she liked, but...

【This kid looks so good, I really want it! 】

Sylvia, who did not go straight from the mage tower to the city hall, but took a detour in the alleys in the west of the city, suddenly found a human teenager squatting in a corner in a daze. The latter seemed to be only eleven or twelve years old. But it was extremely delicate and cute. Even the dirty and smelly coarse clothes could hardly conceal the delicious essence of its owner. Sylvia could hardly walk the moment she saw the child.

[Judging from the way he dresses, the child's origin is probably not that good, so even if I 'eat' it, it won't have much impact~]

Sylvia secretly thought, the corners of her mouth could not help but raise a charming arc, then she walked up to the human boy and gently helped the latter's hair: "Is there anything I can do for you, my dear?" ?”

The boy trembled subconsciously, and then let go of his guard the moment he looked up and saw the other person's face, and whispered with a reddish face, "I'm lost..."

"Lost?" The smile on the corner of Sylvia's mouth grew stronger, she gently embraced the young man's shoulders, her two thin lips almost stuck to the latter's ears, and asked softly as if in a whisper: "Why did you get lost?" Woolen cloth?"

The boy's cheeks became even redder. He twisted his body uncomfortably, and with difficulty moved his gaze away from Sylvia's face, and replied: "I got separated from my family, and my father said that everyone will leave in the afternoon. Go south to Ka... Ka... Mmm..."

"Kasha City?" Sylvia lightly pecked the boy's earlobe, her slender arms slightly exerted force, and hugged the boy in her arms tighter: "Did you come with the caravan?"

The latter nodded vigorously: "Well, my father sells leather...Our family's leather..."

"Let's put the leather aside, my dear, take it easy~"

Sylvia gently interrupted the other party's stuttering narration, and kissed the boy's cheek affectionately: "Accompany my sister for a while, and then I will take you to find your father, okay?"

"Huh~?"

"Yes, that's it, don't move, it may hurt a little, but my sister will make up for you for a day~a night~"

In the next moment, two unnaturally long canine teeth had broken through the skin on the side of the boy's neck...

The next moment, Sylvia suddenly trembled all over her body, and then fell limply to the ground with an incredulous expression on her face. A few drops of 'blood' slid down the corner of her mouth, and condensed into a ball before falling to the ground. Crushed blood particles.

"To be honest, it's so low-level that it's outrageous. Even if you can successfully subdue me, it won't be more regrettable than it is now..."

A cold sigh sounded beside her, but the bloodseeker couldn't even turn his head at this moment...

But even if she couldn't see it, Sylvia could clearly know that the person who said that sentence was not an ordinary boy, that slightly hoarse but warm and pleasant voice clearly belonged to a woman, a calm, cold and beautiful woman .

She opened her mouth with difficulty: "You... are you..."

click!
A black musket pierced directly into her mouth roughly, and directly pushed back what Sylvia said later.

"Objectively speaking, the only thing you need to do now is to save your life as much as possible, instead of trying to ask an answer that you can't get, or that may even make the other party kill you."

The slender hand holding the gun lightly patted Sylvia's cheek, and then pulled out the musket, which was very likely to be shot directly and killed as soon as the trigger was pulled. The next second, the black butt of the gun was on Sylvia's face The eyes began to grow rapidly!
"The truth is the least valuable thing. Farewell ~ the curious vampire lady."

These were the last words Sylvia heard before fainting.

……

ten minutes later
Mercury City Hall
A long and graceful leg directly kicked open the door of the house chief of Mercury City - Fudge, who is one of the most trusted people of the Grand Duke Marshall, and his status is even higher than the owner of that leg.

"Oh, Ms. Shuangrui, I remember you said yesterday that you were in a good mood."

The old goblin brushed aside the letter paper in front of him, put down the quill that was a bit too big for him, and said with a smile, "Can old Fudge do something for you?"

"Of course, but first you have to get those ugly guys out of the back first."

Sylvia looked back coldly at the four or five knights with embarrassing faces behind her, and said in a deep voice, "If you want me to do it myself, you can do it yourself."

"Don't be like this~ The knights are just doing their duty to protect the frail old Fudge during working hours. After all, the Duke thinks I'm still useful. Alright, let's step back first."

Fudge raised his hand, waved away the guarding knights at the door, and then smiled gently at Sylvia: "You should know the rules here, we all have to be cautious, and you have never Those knights who have been looking for me at such a time don’t know if you are an ‘idler or not’.”

"Of course I'm an idler."

Sylvia shrugged, pulled away the chair in front of Fudge and sat down: "There is no doubt."

The white-haired and well-built old goblin shook his head, and said with a wry smile: "My lady, of course you are not an idler. If you feel offended just now, of course I am willing to apologize to you immediately."

"I'm telling the truth, Mr. Fudge, and I'm just a moron."

Sylvia folded her legs gracefully, and stroked her long hair on her shoulders: "Of course Sylvia Shuangrui is not, but that has nothing to do with me, okay, please don't show this expression, quietly recite Please put down that hand behind you too, smart... Well, at least you should be smarter than Sylvia, you should be very clear that I have no malicious intentions."

"Not necessarily."

Fudge stared coldly at 'Sylvia' in front of him, still clasping the directional teleportation scroll with his right hand, and asked in a deep voice: "Who the hell are you?!"

"Maybe I should take back what I said just now. It's really too stupid to ask 'who are you' and 'who are you' when I first come up, even if I tell you who I am and what my name is Will the name help us in our next conversation? Will it make you trust me unconditionally?"

'Sylvia' smiled sarcastically, and tapped on the table lightly: "I think questions like 'what are you going to do?' and 'what is your purpose?' are much more valuable."

"Ok."

Fudge nodded cheerfully after a short thought, and asked gloomily to the 'Sylvia' in front of him: "What is your purpose? What is your business here? Also, what happened to the real Sylvia? "

"Don't worry, she just accidentally took a little [blood coagulant], and it won't be life-threatening."

The impostor smiled, and then raised a... well, index finger at Fudge: "I'm here to help you, and I don't know why, anyway, your Duke Buffy Marshall has been killed three days ago House arrest, now an investigation team composed of the Violet Royal Family and other lords is rushing to Mercury City, they want to investigate some particularly interesting things, and they still have a lot of evidence in their hands, yes, such as the list you are subconsciously covering now , what they are looking for is this kind of thing~”

"Could it be that……"

Fudge broke out in a cold sweat. Since last night, he has been wondering why there has been no news from Salamune. Before the fake Sylvia in front of him broke in, he was preparing to write a letter to Buffy Marshall. Well, I didn't expect this kind of thing to happen at all, but Fudge didn't know whether the guy in front of him was right or not...

"I know what you're going to say." 'Sylvia' choked back the other party's unspoken question in advance, and smiled calmly: "Of course I can't prove that I'm reliable, and I can't tell you the source of the news. , all I can say is that I know exactly what the Marshall family is doing, and I know what is hidden in this Mercury City, as for why I want to tell you this, hehe...is it very important?"

Fudge narrowed his eyes slightly: "Isn't this important?"

"Compared to the joint investigation team that will arrive here tonight, this is of course not important."

'Sylvia' carelessly played with her hair, and said lightly: "I will not ask you for any reward, nor will I raise any conditions with you, and the purpose of coming here is just to tell you something, As for how Mercury City plans to deal with this matter, it has nothing to do with me half a copper coin."

Fudge looked at the other party with some struggles, and tried to probe for the last time: "Could it be that you..."

"I've already said what I need to say, and you can do whatever you want next."

'Sylvia' had already stood up, turned and walked out: "By the way, if you plan to let those guards stop me, or do it yourself..."

She turned to Fudge and smiled kindly.

"Then don't worry about the investigation team~"
