I, the wizard, the foolish Buddha.

Chapter 232 Night Demon, Ladies
Under Catherine's full stimulation, the two quickly ended the battle.

After checking the results, Catherine showed a satisfied look. She lay on Roland's chest, sweating profusely, like a docile kitten.

"Even so, you're still thinking about having Anna follow me and marry you?"

Roland lay in bed and sighed, "First of all, I never said such a thing. Secondly, I don't have a single drop left. Are you now confident in letting me go to the Countess?"

Catherine's face turned slightly red, her little thoughts were seen through.

She said, "Who do you think is more charming, Yingtao or Lady Wendysha?"

Roland lay flat on the bed, stroking her back and said, "It's no use telling me this now. I have no distractions right now. I just want to have lunch."

Catherine finally felt relieved, she got up, and tidied the room a little. She threw Roland's clothes to Master Roland, who put on his clothes.

Suddenly, her eyes moved slightly and she looked behind her. She found a ballet puppet in the room. A bat sculpture was standing on the puppet's shoulder.

Roland was sitting at the head of the bed, buttoning his shirt, his eyes closed, shaking his head as he thought about something.

After a moment, he opened his eyes, and there was a hint of fatigue in his eyes.

Roland said with a strange expression, "Last night, a group of blood-stained wizards came over from various territories outside.

The lab went smoothly last night, and my wife went back to rest before daybreak. She will get up at noon and will not go to the lab before nine o'clock in the evening.

Speaking of this, Roland's face looked a little ugly.

Catherine said that the Countess would take two hours to discuss the mysticism of Heraclea with Roland.

So, what did Madam prepare for in the remaining six or seven hours?
The reason why the Count behaved abnormally was closely related to Heracca's theology.

It was as if Roland saw Helaka from another angle from the church on the twilight side.

The Count also saw a different perspective of God in Roland's works.

This gave him a burst of new inspiration and attracted the attention of the Bloody Baron. This is when he fell into the mysterious quagmire of the underworld and began to have physical problems.

In recent years, Blightblood Castle has acquired the Heracari Trail, practically regarding this trail as the family's future.

Therefore, whether studying the Count or understanding the accident of this mysterious leak from the side, we must have an in-depth understanding of Heraclea's mysticism.

In other words, get to know Roland in depth.

The priority of this matter is even higher than the task assigned by the Thousand-Eyed King.

Therefore, we are back to the question just now - why did the lady have so much free time after receiving Roland and waste the rest of her time on other things?
I'm afraid these eight or nine hours are all left for Roland.

Catherine smiled gleefully and said, "What a coincidence! Today, the Viscount will bring his confidants to negotiate with me. I guess this traitor is planning to completely dispose of the Earl and then push the Countess to the top."

They need the support of the Thousand-Eyed King.

As for the matter of the Black Abyss, we also have a lot to discuss. They have a lot of things to discuss with me, and we also have a lot of interests to share.

We have to talk for at least an afternoon.

I don't trust them. I can't go alone. I will definitely take Anna with me.

So, Anna and I were so tied up that I didn't have time to worry about who my fiancé was fooling around with."

After a pause, Catherine looked at Roland with a smile and said, "Enjoy a pleasant afternoon tea, Lord Roland. Yes, and perhaps dinner too."

Roland was horrified. He said, "What do you mean? I don't want to spend an entire afternoon with those vampires!"

Catherine smiled and ignored him. She sat in front of the mirror and combed her hair. She just said, "Hope everything goes well on my end. If everything goes well on my end, we'll leave today."

Roland breathed a sigh of relief.

The senior student was going to the laboratory, so it was impossible for her to have a secret conversation with the Viscount and the others.

But this secret conversation is an excellent opportunity to take action.

This meeting is top secret and there won't be too many people involved. To prevent leaks, no one will disturb their conversation.

So this would be a perfect opportunity to commit a "locked room murder".

As long as the senior and Anna go in and kill the Viscount and the several confidants he brought with him, they will go to the laboratory to commit the crime.

With the speed at which the senior sister packs things, it will only take a short while.

As for the Count, he was sealed in a jar. Even if he suddenly woke up, the Heracles statue would be there to help him.

Therefore, when the senior sister will finish her work does not depend on how much stuff is in the laboratory, but on how much she wants to learn from the wizards in the laboratory by using her identity as the Countess.

If everything goes well, it will be over before I am tied to the bed.

The senior sister has always been reliable in doing things, and there won’t be any trouble even if the clone follows her.

As long as nothing goes wrong on your side and you just hold on a little, everything will be fine.

Wait, considering the senior sister’s greedy personality, can she just leave after finishing her business?

Don’t you have to wander around the Blood Castle?

During this period, can she ask her clone to come and help her?
She needs her own clone to help her find treasure!
Roland came to the senior student in a flattering manner and combed her hair. "There may be a lot of wizards in the Blood Castle. After you finish your business, it's best not to wander around. I'm worried about you."

In response to Roland's concern, the senior student chuckled and said, "Roland, don't worry about me. No one in this Withered Blood Castle can match me."

What she meant was that you should worry about yourself.

Roland's face looked a little ugly.

After combing her hair, the senior stopped teasing Roland and said seriously, "Try to hold off for a while. Don't come to me for two hours!"

Last night, the senior student told Roland - If you want to have fun, I'll make it happen for you, but if you don't get it done, you'll be in trouble!
Two hours is the minimum standard for completing the task after Catherine lowered the requirements.

Therefore, Roland tried his best to delay the Countess for two hours.

Roland thought to himself, "Mrs. Wendisa wouldn't just hold me down and draw my blood, would she?
Two hours, I tried to delay it a bit, and it was no problem.”

While Roland was distracted, he saw his senior schoolmate take out a mini cage.

This small cage had a mysterious aura, and Roland suspected that it was a 'cage' prepared by the senior to imprison the species.

At this moment, Roland suddenly saw Catherine grab the dancing Leona, and Leona and the bat statue on her shoulder appeared in the small cage.

Roland was horrified. He didn't expect that the senior could take in Leona and her clone so easily!

He suddenly realized that he was still connected to Leona, so he breathed a sigh of relief.

Catherine gave Roland a look.

Roland closed his eyes obediently, and then the bat statue on Leona's shoulder slowly melted and wrapped Leona.

Then, a Roland wearing a flower moss robe appeared in the small cage.

The clone Roland closed his eyes and thought for a moment, then gave Roland a look - there was still a loophole to escape.

Catherine sneered, "Don't flirt with me. I have no intention of locking up your clone and Leona. Work hard for me, and you'll get some benefits. This Blood Castle has accumulated wealth for hundreds of years.

The Bloody Wizards fear power but not virtue. They were able to secretly do so many things under my father's nose. If I don't give them a good lesson, how can they respect the Black Abyss?"

The Blood-Dried Wizards have committed many evil deeds, and all the people in the County are their blood slaves.

These leeks are growing too vigorously and need to be harvested. Otherwise, it will not be a good thing for both the secular world and the wizarding world.

A filial daughter would naturally not let her father's minions reap the benefits, she must take this advantage for herself.

Catherine needed this nourishment. After all, the treasures of the old Black Abyss had been damaged after falling into the abyss. With this wave of fat to nourish them, they could gouge out the eyes of the Yellow Fern Lord when they returned.

Roland thought to himself, "It seems that Senior Sister is planning to help the Heracles Statue and stir up some big trouble in the Blood Castle."

Seeing that Roland had remained silent, Catherine's eyes softened. "Roland, I wasn't ordering you to do this. This matter is truly important to me. I just hope you can take it seriously and not make a big deal out of it. No matter what happens in the future, I will always be your lover. Everything I have belongs to you, including me."

Roland thought to himself, "Senior, I can't be moved by you telling me this now! I'm a little flustered now!"

This time, Roland and Catherine had the same goal.

The two of them each performed their duties in the mission.

Catherine's job was to pack up the lab and maximize profits in the remaining time. Her task was arduous.

On the other hand, Roland's job should be the easiest. After all, he just needs to find a way to delay his wife.

Logically, he only needed to appreciate the artwork and talk about the Hracarya Ode with the Countess, and the two hours would pass quickly.

But Roland felt inexplicably guilty.

Maybe it's because I didn't eat? Low blood sugar?
I consumed a lot of energy yesterday. I need to add some protein.

The two men had finished what they wanted to talk about and were ready to let the female officials in.

Catherine finally said, "Are you really not planning to take anything with you? I know you're worried about being caught and searched and losing your belongings. But if you run into that kind of situation with the Countess, we should cancel our plan. For Miao Luolan, your life is the most important thing."

On the surface, Catherine always pretended to be a wizard boss who said, "You are all my expendable items," but in her heart, nothing was more important than Roland.

Even more important than her own life.

Roland said, "It's just a tea party, what could happen?"

Under Catherine's warning eyes, Roland changed his tone: "Okay, you are right."

Roland thought about it, then changed into his floral moss vestments and inner armor, returning to his original classical attire.

In addition, he also took a silver pocket watch. The Flower Moss Robe had a built-in substitute technique. In extreme situations where Roland had no chance to summon an avatar, the Flower Moss Robe could save his life and then create a straw Roland.

Combined with the invincibility frame of the silver pocket watch, Roland was able to bring his clone over as well.

That's all I have.

Besides, it’s just a tea party, right?
At this time, the senior student handed Roland the Snake Ring and said, "Take this with you. It is connected to my ring. Through it, I can know if anything happened to you."

Roland waved his hand and said, "My clone has to keep this thing. It contains a statue that can help you deal with the Count. If the Count suddenly wakes up, you'll have to rely on this statue."

Roland didn't dare to take the statue out of the ring now, for fear of waking up the ancient god again.

After listening to Roland's words, Catherine thought for a moment and gave Roland a small snake statue. This statue was a talisman.

Through this amulet, the senior sister can know the situation on Roland's side. At the same time, it also has a special function - the senior sister can perform "castling" with the amulet.

If something happens to Roland here, the snake statue amulet will notify the senior, and the senior can be teleported over to help immediately.

Catherine finally said, "I know it's just a tea party, but we have to take some precautions."

Roland's heart couldn't help but warm.

Everyone in this world would scheme against him, but Catherine was the only one who was completely devoted to him. She kept saying that this mission was the most important, but she would put it aside for Roland at any time.

The ladies-in-waiting knocked on the door again and asked, but Roland let them in directly.

After seeing Roland's current attire, the ladies-in-waiting were slightly stunned, and then they turned a deaf ear and dumb and served Catherine.

It was as if Master Roland should have stayed in Madame Alaye's room last night.

Roland sat aside and chatted with Catherine for a while, then went to the living room to eat.

When Roland just got out of bed, he was free of thoughts, but after eating, he became full of energy again.

It's no wonder that Catherine is always worried about this guy. After Catherine had a sweet time with Roland last night, she probably doesn't want to provoke this guy again for half a month.

But after Roland finished his meal, he stood at the bedroom door with a smile on his face, watching his senior sister dress up.

It was not until the senior student asked the ladies-in-waiting to close the door that Roland returned to the living room with some disappointment.

I looked at my silver pocket watch. It was now half past twelve, and there was still an hour until the time agreed with the Countess. It would be just right to set off in half an hour.

He held a cup of coffee and stood by the window, admiring the view.

The sky outside was clear. Compared to the night, there were far fewer people standing on rooftops and towers during the day. They all covered themselves up tightly, trying to stay in the shadows.

Anna was practicing swordplay in the courtyard with a group of court knights—to be exact, they were the Blood Knights.

At the banquet last night, Roland had noticed that Sir Buck was quite skilled in swordsmanship. In reality, the giant worm hadn't moved at all. He said he was skilled in swordsmanship because he could predict Roland's moves and understand his movements.

So far, among those who have fought with Roland, there are only two people who can understand his body movements, not counting Anna.

One is Big Brother Pumpkin - he has killed too many people, and his mental strength is terrifying, so he can keep up with Roland.

One is Sir Buck. He really understands and his reflexes are very fast, but the magic in his hands cannot keep up with Roland.

Although Roland did not use magic or magical items, Sir Buck also used only magic.

He dodged Roland's initial attack, and then forced Roland to stay away for more than a minute.

At that time, Roland felt that the Kuxue family seemed to have special body-building techniques.

Now, after seeing the bloody knights below, Roland's eyes lit up.

Every wizard family will train some knights. They are not only excellent materials for human experiments, but also good cannon fodder, or even high-level cannon fodder after wearing heavy magical protective equipment.

But Roland had never heard of any wizard family that had trained a knight to a level above the first level.

When entering the Bleeding Blood Castle, Roland noticed that there were many knights in the castle. Even during the banquet, he saw many court knights acting as guards.

Those court knights were all very tall. Roland originally thought they were just facades and cannon fodder, but now he saw that they were actually the backbone.

It can be seen that these knights are not very good at dealing with high-level warriors, they are better at fighting wizards in groups.

The equipment on his body is also expensive magic resistance equipment.

But these knights, who were specially trained to fight wizards in groups, were able to fight Anna back and forth.

Anna seemed to be using the Blood Knight to continue to hone her skills - her current strength was still far from that of Gnar, and she was still in the stage of recovery training.

Anna was in recovery training, not fighting the Blood Knights. Several Blood Knights took turns serving as sparring partners. Among them was a Grand Knight Commander, possessing the physical strength of a late-stage First Order, who served as the primary sparring partner.

After looking for a while, Roland's eyes lit up slightly.

The courtyard was filled with sword lights. Although the Blood Knight had no magic power, he could release sword shadows like lightning and fire blades.

Sword Qi, soaring into the air, and short flights. Their speed was incredibly fast, and their nerve reflexes were incredibly fast. It looked like a bat flying in the forest!

He obviously couldn't beat Anna. It would take several more people to tie with Anna, but it was daytime!
And the blood-dry wizards are a group of vampires!
Night is their home turf.

They were running at top speed, and surprisingly, their strength and stamina were also insanely great!

The sword technique and figure are also very strange.

Roland had no doubt that even if these guys were torn to pieces, as long as they were covered in blood, they would be able to survive and fight again!
Looking at the afterimages left by the knights moving at high speed in the courtyard, Roland's hand holding the coffee began to tremble slightly.

This is exactly the excellent body refining technique that he needs. Although the vampire stuff may not be suitable for him, and he cannot perfectly match it after practicing it, it is better than nothing!

Roland liked the Valeria sword techniques very much, but he couldn't practice the core secrets.

Perhaps there is something like this in the Blood Castle.

Once you can practice this body-refining technique, your speed, recovery and strength will all experience a qualitative leap.

Soon, everyone entered a period of rest. The very tall knights took off their helmets, and Roland's pupils suddenly shrank.

Their faces are very strange, with no nose, very wide mouths and very sharp teeth.

They are not bats, nor are they vampires.

But it is a night demon, or rather a night demon transformed by the blood-drying wizards through mutation science.

Roland said with a strange expression, "I originally thought they were on the same path as the Blood-Withered Wizard, following the path of evil. Now it seems they are on the path of magic. Are the things of demons suitable for me?"
After thinking about it, Roland felt that it must be stronger than vampire things. Demon things are often very suitable for humans.

If you practice vampire stuff, you may have to go through a transformation ritual to turn yourself into a vampire before you can complete the practice.

But the demons' things weren't necessarily the same. While they might have strange side effects and even some symptoms of corruption, these problems could be resolved with potions or some holy objects of supreme goodness and purity.

At this time, the lady-in-waiting told Roland that a certain knight had come to invite Roland to Madame Vendesa's salon.

Roland perked up, thinking to himself, "I wonder if I can get this secret method of body building this time."
No matter what happens, Roland will definitely go.

If I can get important information from the lady, maybe I can cooperate with the senior sister before she leaves to achieve option C and get the Veil of Helaka and the Mask of the Bloody Baron.

Moreover, Goddess Heraka promised to help Roland solve the problem of the side effects of the clone affecting the main body.

This is the most critical thing.

After all, only by solving this problem could Roland continue on his path as a wizard. Otherwise, he would have to consider destroying his clone and returning to the secular world.

Roland's expression became serious.

While thinking, Roland walked out the door and met the people who came to pick him up.

The leader was actually a lady who was a head taller than Roland!
She was wearing knight armor and a mask, and her pupils were golden, like beautiful amber gems.

Behind her were several female knights and some female officials.

Roland's pupils moved, and he discovered that this lady was actually a quasi-second-level knight.

Quasi-second level, this realm is very strange, but very common in the Kuxue family.

They had clearly entered the second stage and formed the 'Philosopher's Stone' in their bodies, but the Philosopher's Stone was full of flaws.

These people either rely on external forces to reach the next level, or have problems with their own cultivation techniques, and will never be able to make any further progress in their entire lives. They also often have fatal problems that prevent them from exerting their true second-level strength.

But Roland didn't dare to underestimate this kind of people, because 'Haywood' was just that kind of person.

In other words, the few people who were stuck between two levels advanced with the help of mysterious forces.

The secret techniques of the Kuxue family have been secretly tampered with by the Kuxue Baron. Who knows whether some of the quasi-second-level strongmen are the bodies prepared by the Kuxue Baron for himself in the human world?
The lady bowed politely to Roland. Her voice was soft and delicate, completely different from her height. "Your Excellency Lord Roland, the castle has been a bit restless lately. The Countess has specially sent me to escort you there."

"It seems that the lady is very wary of us. I want to let her down."

Roland smiled and chatted with the lady for a few words before heading to the painting room.

The two had a pleasant chat on the way. Roland learned that the lady had just returned to the Blood Castle from outside last night and was in charge of all security matters here.

After learning that Roland was interested in her skills, the lady said that she could have a discussion with Roland later.

While chatting, the two came to the painting room. Roland looked up and his face suddenly became very ugly.

He suddenly understood why his lady had specially sent this lady to 'escort' him.

Sitting in this gallery were a dozen elegant and beautiful ladies, or rather a patriarch, three saints and a dozen priests.

As soon as Roland entered the room, more than a dozen charm spells, cognitive distortions and other mind control techniques were thrown directly at him.
