What slightly displeased him was that the Queen did not show any fear on her face.
"Who are you?" The royal butler, Joe, did not rashly attack the newcomers, but instead stood guard in front of the Queen.
He smelled a strong stench of blood from the three mysterious men. If he wasn't mistaken, the dozen or so royal guards outside had already been silently "taken care of."
It's safe to say that these three mysterious people who walked in are extremely dangerous.
The three mysterious figures dressed in black robes ignored Joe's question and walked up to Marbury on their own.
"After this operation concludes, we demand 100 square kilometers of land as payment." A cold voice rang out from the tallest man in black robes.
"Okay~" Marbury's face turned ugly, but after scanning the three men in black robes who exuded a strong sense of oppression, he still gritted his teeth and agreed to their request.
Then, he looked at Queen Renadi with a hint of arrogance and said, "If you want to live, order the throne to be handed over to me, or don't blame me for being ruthless."
"You're dreaming!" Queen Renadi said firmly, "I'd rather hand the country over to someone like you than give up..."
At the same time, Joe, the royal butler and bodyguard, received a hint from the Queen.
Immediately, a highly concealed miniature pistol was aimed at the culprit, Marbury.
With a loud "bang," the bullet struck Marbury squarely between the eyebrows.
Amy, the maid who also doubles as the princess's bodyguard, pulled out two silenced pistols and fired indiscriminately at the man in black and the Marbury father and son.
The whole process sounds complicated, but it actually happens in a split second.
Even after the barrage of gunfire ceased, most people in the banquet hall were still confused about what had happened.
Of course, this "most people" did not include the three men in black robes. Two of them had already dodged to the side the moment the gunshot rang out.
The tallest man in black robes stood in front of Marbury and his son, deflecting all the bullets with a wave of his right hand.
"Your lives are worth a hundred square kilometers of land, any objections?" The tall man in black robes turned around and released his hand, the spent cartridges sliding out and making a crisp tapping sound on the marble floor.
"No, no objection~" It wasn't until this moment that Marbury realized he had almost been ambushed and killed.
Wiping the cold sweat from his forehead and calming his racing heart, he looked up and said hatefully, "I have one more request: make the members of the Renadi family's royal family suffer a fate worse than death. And those two bodyguards, I want them dead."
"A small matter~" The tall, black-robed man, who had secured enough space for his power to survive, didn't mind fulfilling a small wish for his employer.
“I apologize, Queen Renadi.” Before taking action, the tall man in black robes absolved himself of responsibility. He looked at the queen and said, “We have no intention of being your enemy, but we are forced by circumstances…”
Caius was originally a pure-blooded vampire living in seclusion in Washington state, USA. The reason he coveted Genovia was because the United States was no longer a suitable place for vampires to live.
Mike bears a great deal of responsibility for this.
"You are vampires~" Queen Renadi saw the face of the man in black robes, a thin, pale face.
As a guest of honor from America, Queen Renardi had naturally heard of the rumors about vampires.
“We are indeed vampires.” Caius did not deny it, and then took off the large hood from his head.
His face beneath the hood was pale and bloodless.
On the other side, Jane, who possesses the talent of [Mental Assassination], and Chelsea, who possesses the talent of [Senses Detachment], also took off their hoods at the same time.
Two vampires, a man and a woman, both had deathly pale faces.
Chelsea's mouth still had blood on it, making him look incredibly bloodthirsty.
"Why bother talking so much to these mortals?" Chelsea said impatiently. "Let's finish the mission quickly so we can go back and report to the chief."
Caius, the second-in-command of the Voltu family, frowned upon hearing Chelsea's impolite words.
Caius also wanted to complete the mission quickly and get the land, but he had more to consider.
Although Genovia is a small country, Queen Reynardi has good relations with many of her neighbors. If something were to happen to her, it would likely draw the attention of those countries.
Especially in the United States, with its Men in Black organization, the vampire clan is simply not someone to mess with now.
This is also why Caius explained so much to Queen Renadi and tried his best to distance himself from her.
However, nothing stays hidden forever, and the vampire's actions will eventually be discovered.
Instead of trying to cover it up, we should act quickly and decisively.
Having figured this out, Caius suppressed his displeasure, nodded to Chelsea and Jane, and signaled for them to get started.
"Consider yourselves lucky, I've already eaten my fill today." With a wave of Chelsea's hand, the banquet guards that Joe had hastily summoned to protect the Queen fell to the ground one after another.
The loss of the five senses can render a person unable to speak or hear, turning them into a "living madman" as if they were asleep in a nightmare.
It wasn't until Joe also fell that Queen Renadi was exposed to Jane.
Jane, who possesses the ability of "mental assassination," can inflict pain on her opponents without triggering their emotions, and can also cause them to be consumed by inner fire.
This ability is very similar to, or even stronger than, the Egyptian queen's [Emotional Guidance]. Its only two drawbacks are that it can only be used one-on-one, and that you need to keep your eyes on your opponent when activating the ability.
Therefore, Jane usually needs companions to "protect" her during battles.
However, it's not so troublesome when bullying ordinary people.
Jane then looked at Queen Renadi and activated her own ability.
Furthermore, if we were to categorize psychological assassinations, level one might only cause mild angina, while level ten would cause unbearable pain and burn one to ashes.
In order to meet the employer's requirements, Jane's ability to activate the device gradually increases from low to high, thus gradually increasing the level of pain.
Seeing Queen Renadi's expression gradually turn to pain, Princess Mia suddenly stepped in front of her grandmother.
Contrary to expectations, Princess Mia did not feel any pain.
Meanwhile, Amy and Alan, who had been waiting for their chance, attacked Jane with silver knives and forks.
The two of them knew a little about vampires' weakness to silver weapons.
Chelsea, seeing the two girls attack their companion, immediately used the five senses separation technique again.
Surprisingly, his [Five Senses Separation] technique failed this time, and the two girls did not "fall asleep".
Instead, through their coordinated efforts, they forced Jane to retreat repeatedly.
The reason for this effect is that, as a "pure" mage, Jian's close combat experience is no stronger than that of ordinary people.
On the other hand, it's because Amy, as the princess's personal bodyguard, has physical abilities and combat skills far exceeding those of ordinary people.
Even her secretary, Alan, who often hung out with her, was skilled in martial arts.
With one increase and one decrease, Amy and Alan actually managed to go toe-to-toe with Jane.
This is unacceptable! With their own talents failing and their teammates being forced into perilous situations, Chelsea is quick to join the fray.
[Mental Assassination (Talent)]...[Sense Deprivation (Talent)]...[Sense Enhancement (Talent)]...
"Mia, are you alright?"
Mike, who arrived using his teleportation ability, immediately obtained three special orbs upon his arrival.
However, these things are not important to him right now; what worries him more is the state of "his own people."
"Mike? What are you doing here?" Mia was a little confused when the person she had been thinking about suddenly appeared.
It wasn't until Mike greeted Queen Renadi and "revived" the royal butler Joe that the girl spoke up in surprise.
"Didn't I tell you? I'll be there for you whenever you need me." Mike, realizing things weren't so bad after all, even had the mood to joke with the girl.
As luck would have it, Mike had been studying Angel Number One's notes these past two days and had just mastered the [teleportation] ability when he received Mia's "call".
Having arrived in Genovia with only ten points of energy, he felt he could come here often to visit Princess Mia.
"Could you really be God, hearing my prayers..." Princess Mia had thought she wouldn't make it through the day and was saying goodbye to Mike in her heart when he suddenly appeared in front of her.
This can no longer be described as miraculous.
In addition, Mike's special performance of the Blessing Light Bomb last time made him seem very mysterious to the girl.
“No, no, no, I’m not God, I just have a few special abilities.” Mike shook his head.
He has not yet reached the level of the "creator god" God.
"Regardless, thank you for being here at this moment." Princess Mia smiled as she looked at Mike's humble demeanor, feeling even a little proud.
'This is my man…'
However, she quickly regained her composure and said worriedly, "Can you help Amy and the others? Their opponent is a vampire."
"Don't worry, they'll be fine with me here." Mike had already cast a protective shield on each of the two girls, the kind that even a count-level vampire couldn't break.
The situation in the center of the field confirmed this; Chelsea's attacks on the girls and Jane's counterattacks were all neutralized by an invisible shield, as if they were hitting "cotton".
This situation surprised and terrified the two well-traveled pureblood vampires.
Amy and Alan, though they didn't know why their opponents' attacks couldn't hit them, found it to be a good thing.
Gradually, the two girls abandoned their defense and focused all their energy on killing the enemy.
Before long, both Chelsea and Jane were injured by the silver cutlery.
Chapter 462 Turmoil
Two count-level vampires and one marquis-level vampire; it seems the vampire clan has quite a plan for Genovia this time.
While keeping an eye on Amy and Alan's fight, Mike used his mind-reading ability to peer into the inner world of the three pureblood vampires.
With the accumulation of mental strength and time, Mike is now able to read the thoughts of some powerful and extraordinary beings.
Unlike Chelsea and Caius, who were busy fighting, Caius, who possessed the [Five Senses Enhancement] talent, had extremely sharp senses.
Faced with Mike's probing gaze, the second elder of the Volturi family dared not move an inch, his entire body frozen in place.
My only thought was: to escape from here...
Otherwise, it really will be a disaster.
Compared to the powerful bloodline talents of other vampires, the enhanced five senses talent seems rather ordinary.
However, it also depends on how it is used. Caius's cautious personality is a perfect match for [Five Senses Enhancement], which allowed him to escape danger many times during the years-long conflict between vampires and werewolves.
This time, the young man who suddenly appeared felt more dangerous to him than ever before.
Overwhelmed by a heightened sense of danger, the second elder of the Volturi family couldn't muster any will to resist; his only thought was how to escape.
In the center of the banquet hall, although Amy and Alan had a damage immunity buff, they were still ordinary people, and the high-intensity attacks were gradually exhausting them.
Just then, their opponent suddenly collapsed to the ground in agony, seemingly enduring inhuman torture.
Yes, Mike made his move.
By combining his talents of [Emotional Guidance] and [Mental Assassination], he can mentally assassinate several people at once.
“This… how is this possible…” Jane, who was suffering from mental torment, realized that the pain she was experiencing came from her talent for mental assassination.
It's that feeling of unbearable pain, of being worse off than alive.
Because of her understanding of her own bloodline talent, Jane knew better what kind of pain she would experience next.
Living even a second longer is torture...
So the count-level vampire gave up resisting and was instantly burned to ashes from the inside out by the inner fire.
On the other side, Chelsea, with an extremely strong will to survive and struggling against mental torment, looked up and saw a pair of "indifferent" eyes.
"Spare me...spare me..." Chelsea begged for mercy.
Before they could finish speaking, they too turned into a pile of ashes on the ground.
Overall, he lasted only two seconds longer than Jane.
The sudden turn of events involving the two vampires startled Amy and Alan. In their haste to back away, they bumped into Mike behind them.
"Mike, why are you here?"
Upon seeing who was behind them, the two girls asked the same question as Princess Mia.
"I'll explain later. Right now, I need to go and take care of the last escaped rat..." Mike gently ruffled the two girls' hair, gave them both a stamina recovery buff, and then headed out to chase after it.
Sure enough, Caius lived up to his reputation as the second elder of the Volturi family. He managed to slip out of the banquet hall despite Mike's mental assassination attempt.
"Mike~"
Just as Mike was about to give chase, he heard Mia calling from behind.
This princess has just experienced a vampire coup and is currently very insecure. The way she looks at Mike shows a deep sense of dependence.
That was Mike's oversight.
