Rise from the coffin and rebuild the vampire empire

Chapter 22 Departure
"We'll set off immediately after loading. John will stay in the camp and help Kevin and Lyle handle camp affairs."

Uther didn't want to waste time. The entire camp was in a state of thriving vitality and development.

He, Trevor, and John, the three brothers, split into three groups and wasted no time working hard to expand the camp.

Uther had a hunch that more and more people would come to the New World in search of opportunities, but the place was so small that they had to occupy as much as possible now.

"I'll go with you and take a look."

Karen made a decision and prepared to go to Stone Forest Port with Uther to take a look.

Of course, he must be careful and make some disguises. Although Shilin Port was incorporated, it is equivalent to a semi-autonomous state.

But no matter what, it is still a holding subsidiary of the Human Empire. As a member of the sworn enemy family, he certainly cannot go there so brazenly and not alert the enemy.

"Yes, my lord."

Karen wanted to go with him, so Uther naturally had no way to refuse.

Although with Karen traveling with him, he no longer had to worry about encountering danger on the road, but Uther actually wanted Karen to stay.

Karen staying here can ensure the absolute safety of the camp. Compared to himself, Uther is obviously more worried about the camp. If he encounters danger and cannot defeat it, he can abandon the goods and run away, but if the camp is attacked again...
"Don't worry, I'll leave something behind to protect the camp."

Karen saw Uther's worry, but he had already thought of a solution.

Although the decision to go to Stone Forest Port was made at the last minute, Karen had already thought about it before. If he was not there, how to ensure the safety of the camp would be a real problem.

Just a group of lizardmen was enough to make Uther and his men sweat profusely. Karen really found it hard to believe that they could handle more trouble.

The reason why Karen was anxious to refine the Blood Castle Core was so that it could come in handy at this time. Even if there was no castle to match it, the Blood Castle Core itself had value.

This is made from the blood of twenty people plus Karen's blood. For the vampires, the core of the blood fortress is an energy source.

Karen's solution was actually very simple. He just gave the Blood Castle core and one of his weapons to Elena. That was enough.

With these two things, at least it would be easy to solve troubles like the last time.

The only problem is that if the accident happens during the day, Elena may need someone to provide her with shade, after all, she is still unable to withstand the scorching sun.

Elena is too fragile now. She is not qualified to challenge the sun and it is impossible for her to become a "Sunwalker" in a short time.

"Master Karen is indeed thoughtful."

When Uther heard Karen say that there was a way, he felt relieved. In this matter, he felt that there was no need for Karen to tease him. After all, in the final analysis, they were also working for Karen.

"You guys continue, I'll go find Elena."

Karen didn't delay and went straight to find Elena, the only existing Blood Oath Knight, who was currently honing her martial arts skills in the room, which were taught by the legendary combat master Karen himself.

"Father!" Seeing Karen coming in, Elena's face showed joy. It was obvious that she had gradually adapted to her current life and was working hard to become a qualified Blood Oath Knight.

"Elena, I'm going to be away from the camp for a while. Take these two things and use them if the camp encounters danger."

Without any nonsense or greetings, Karen took out the Blood Castle core and a longbow from his backpack and handed them to Elena.

Looking at the blood-red vortex ball the size of a football in her hand, and the longbow with half white and half black arms and a red bowstring, Elena's expression was a little confused.

"This bow is called Black or White. It's extremely powerful. When using it, you use the energy from the Blood Fortress's core. Otherwise, you'll be drained dry after just a few pulls."

Karen explained to Elena how to use these two things. It was not difficult, and you didn't even need to aim. "Black or White" would lock onto the killing intent, and basically it would hit wherever it pointed. You didn't even need an arrow, just blood and energy.

"I understand, Father. I will protect the camp."

After figuring out how to use it, Elena said to Karen in a serious tone. Judging from her expression, she seemed eager to try it out.

"Don't do unnecessary things."

Karen warned that the power of "Black or White" was a bit too supermodel for someone of Elena's level.

"Yes~Father."

Elena stuck out her tongue. She now felt that her nature was gradually being liberated, and she was gradually being freed from the constraints of the nun.

Karen patted Elena's head and turned to leave. He was not worried that Elena would use this deadly weapon to do evil. The blood repression and fear were not something she could overcome.

At the entrance of the camp, Karen was covered in a black robe and a wooden mask on his face, completely covering himself with clothes.

He was riding a horse with faint reddish fur. A trace of Karen's blood had been injected into the horse, which had its genes changed, making it run faster at night. Apart from that, there was nothing special about it and it would not be noticed.

The convoy drove out of the camp. There were six carriages, all of which were full. Each carriage had a driver and a soldier in leather armor. The convoy did not bring many guards, because with Karen along, it would be a waste to bring too many guards.

Uther was still wearing the same set of equipment, a suit of silver armor, riding his white horse with silver mane, and a two-handed sword hanging at his side.

His brother John, and his sons Kevin and Lyle all came to see him off. Uther didn't say much and just set off with the convoy.

"Lyle, if there's an enemy attack, go find Elena. I left something for her."

Before leaving, Karen reminded Lyle Cremona that Elena stayed at home all day and if she encountered any danger, someone would need to notify her.

"Yes, my lord."

Lyle quickly agreed, which made Kevin, who was standing by, very envious and a little dejected. He really couldn't understand why both his father and Lord Karen favored Lyle so much?
Lord Karen is fine, after all, Lyle met him first, but his father has obviously valued Lyle more in recent years.

Kevin found it hard to accept. It was obviously him who came first. Everything was his first, including being born and practicing martial arts. But why?
Uther obviously didn't understand Kevin's mumbling. Seeing that Karen had nothing else to say, he directly ordered the convoy to set off.
