The magic cards I made are absolutely flawless!

They carried the barely alive female warrior to the countess and presented her as an offering.

"Damn the Shadow World..."

The dying female warrior's voice was intermittent, and her face, stained with blood and tears, showed only resentment and despair.

This city-state is finished.

Given a severe lack of intelligence.

No one could have guessed the countess's troublesome abilities and the latent advantages she had achieved.

Unless someone can get the information that "the lord has been taken over" out.

Otherwise, there is no hope of turning the tide.

As a follower of the Resurrection cult, she didn't care about failing in the Shadow World.

She was simply unwilling to accept it; she hadn't expected that the ultimate enemy in this shadow world would be so cunning, turning around and hunting down challengers.

After her consciousness completely disappeared, Countess Lislina leisurely began to consume her nourishment.

This was her most enjoyable dinner time.

"Not bad, it would be even better if it were from a young girl's blood."

The countess licked her lips, the blood making her mouth appear exceptionally red, and wore a satisfied expression.

This city-state will soon be hers.

Even though her combat power has not yet fully recovered to the sixth-tier level.

But as long as she continues to quietly recover her strength, and is given another four days, she will be able to regain her full seventh-tier combat power.

Once you go to the town and rescue Marquis Roderick, everything will be over.

"Damn High Priest... Your sacrifices and all your actions are futile struggles. Whether it's a small town or a city-state, it will eventually become our hunting ground."

Countess Lislina felt particularly angry whenever she thought of the town's high priest who had fought her to the death.

If it weren't for that priest's interference, she wouldn't have needed to hide like this.

For some reason, she felt anger rising in her heart, growing stronger and stronger.

It was as if my emotions had been inexplicably stirred up.

And along with the anger, she also felt a hunger stimulating her brain.

I just had some blood, and now I'm hungry again.

Moreover, this time the feeling of surging appetite was very strange.

Countess Lislina even considered ordering her retinue to go to great lengths to hunt down a beautiful young girl she desired most, so that she could drink her blood.

She is an extremely cautious vampire.

Every step taken so far has been marked by steadiness.

Apart from sending one member of the household to lure away adventurers who were trying to use entrapment tactics, they dared not send any more members out to easily arrest civilians.

We must remain low-key and patient until the marquis title is lifted, otherwise all our previous efforts may be in vain.

But this restless desire within her was truly unbearable for her.

She decided to go find the lord.

No matter what method the lord had to devise, she needed to drink fresh blood as soon as possible, and it had to be the blood of a pure young girl.

Soon, Countess Lislina, dressed as a maid, hurried to the door of the lord's bedroom on the second floor.

However, she hadn't opened the door yet.

The door was quickly pulled open from the inside.

At the same time, a brown-covered book suddenly slammed down from inside the door, aimed directly at the top of her head!

She quickly leaned back and lightly jumped to the wall in the corridor.

Fortunately, she reacted quickly enough.

They escaped the attack.

Otherwise, the terrifying power it carried would have blown her head off.

She quickly called her family members to come upstairs and saw the situation in the lord's bedroom.

Suddenly, Countess Lislina felt her brain go blank.

The scene inside the lord's bedroom was quite bizarre.

A girl wearing a whiteboard mask stood at the door.

She was holding a terrifying weapon in her hand. Although it looked like a book, Countess Lislina's intuition told her that being hit by this book would have terrible consequences.

The girl with the whiteboard was clearly keeping watch.

In the middle of the bedroom, the lord, who was sitting at the desk, had already fainted.

Standing beside the lord was a man wearing a similarly bizarre mask with the character "中" (zhong) written on it in bright red paint.

The red-haired man helped the lord into a chair, holding a metal rope in his hand, preparing to tie the lord up tightly.

Meanwhile, by the window of the lord's room, another figure had pulled back the curtains a tiny gap, also keeping watch.

However, he was responsible for monitoring the situation downstairs at the lord's mansion.

At this moment, the figure standing by the window seemed to have also attracted the attention of Countess Lislina.

He turned around; his mask was painted green with the character "发" (fa).

Countess Lislina's eye twitched.

These three guys, who looked suspicious, were clearly a well-established criminal gang.

Although she couldn't see the expressions on the faces of the three people behind their masks.

But she could sense that the three men hesitated noticeably after they saw her, as if they were also surprised.

It seems that the three bandits' initial motives were quite simple; they just wanted to hijack the lord's mansion.

They never expected to encounter a vampire at the lord's manor.

Although Countess Lislina was still dressed as a maid, the smell of blood on her body and the bloodstains at the corner of her mouth could not be hidden.

"Such a good thing?"

Inside the bedroom, the man in red temporarily stopped what he was doing, looked at the maid outside the door, and asked his two accomplices.

"Isn't that a coincidence?"

The man who had just made his fortune couldn't help but laugh.

"Can I keep hitting her?"

Meanwhile, the girl with the blank canvas was also stroking the murder mystery book in her hand, as if she wouldn't feel satisfied until she hit the vampire once.

The three of them stared intently at Countess Lislina as if they had spotted prey.

Even though she couldn't meet the three men's gaze through the mask, the Countess felt a chill run down her spine.

These three guys are too much of a fan.

She had originally thought that this lord's manor was a safe haven for her.

She can gain a significant advantage and prevent anyone from investigating her.

But she never anticipated that ruthless bandits would target the lord's manor!

What kind of world is this?!

Do you think you can just raid the lord's manor like that?!

167 Cornelia's Intelligence

Without much hesitation, Countess Lislina turned and began to run away like a frightened young girl.

Although she knew it was shameful for a noble vampire count to react this way.

But if she doesn't run now, her fate will likely be the same as the two food supplies she just grabbed.

Let's not even talk about that brute-force girl who could make a burst of airflow with just a casual wave of her hand.

The other two guys in the room also made her feel very uneasy.

The person wearing the fortune mask exuded a strange sense of oppression.

As for the person wearing the red mask, although Lislina could not sense any aura of a powerful person from him, she even felt that he was harmless.

But Lislina knew that these kinds of guys were often the most terrifying!

If she were at her peak, she naturally wouldn't be too wary of these three.

But now, she feels uncertain.

At the same time, Cornelia's figure burst out from the door like a demon.

Dekan and Morion soon emerged from the lord's bedroom.

However, they simply stood there watching like it was a show, showing no intention of making a move.

Cornelia, who was chasing Countess Lislina, was carrying a murder book. Her determined gaze was fixed on the countess's head, as if she would not give up until she hit it.

The sight of such a man chasing from behind, getting closer and closer, sent a chill down the Countess's spine.

She absolutely mustn't let this guy hit her with a book!

However, the countess soon sensed that her retinue had arrived.

"Stop her!!"

At Lislina's command, several dark figures emerged from the staircase leading to the first floor of the mansion.

The dark figures quickly shielded Lislina behind them.

Then they charged toward Cornelia.

They were vampire retinue members disguised as servants of the lord's manor.
