anemia. She directly asked the doctor for a diagnosis to send to Wei Yi and Eileen, then went on sick leave without going to work.Ilyn glared at the medical report in front of her, her teeth itching..."This depends on the decision of the three elders. Their opinions are currently divided."
Ang nodded and shrugged.
Liàn Yī actually wants to meet this Elizabeth.
"Then we can only wait for news."
Ripple went back to her dwelling and tried contacting Stone Mill again, but the other party was still offline. Besides the time she was accidentally sent to another mission plane, this was the first time they had lost contact without any explanation.
But Ripple wasn't in a hurry. As a vampire, she was immortal, and the mission progress had already reached halfway. She destroyed the important laboratory for creating creatures, destroyed a batch of lantern tree seeds, exposed the true faces of the artificial vampires and artificial werewolves, and prevented a conflict between the two clans.
What matters most is that she destroyed the only successfully mutated lantern tree, at least preventing the creation beings from cultivating new mutated lantern trees in the short term. She wiped out all of the ambitious people and research materials of the creation beings, and then she'll find a chance to destroy the seeds stored by the blood clan. That would essentially complete the mission.
So now she just has to wait for the right moment, and soon Ripple got her chance. The news came back from Lawrence.
"Found the nest of the creature creators, they sure know how to hide."
Count Lance said lazily.
"Count, we had better act as soon as possible. In case the traitor informs, it will be difficult to catch them again."
Ripple immediately urged.
Lans has the same concerns, but now that the Holy Land is closed and sealed, with no entry or exit, if they forcibly break in, they will definitely be pursued.
Her rippling eyes turned and she spoke directly to Lance:
"Count, I have a plan. Perhaps it will allow us to outwit the mole and complete the mission successfully."
"You said."
"I'll go steal lantern tree seeds, and then you help me escape the Holy Land, claiming I'm an artificial vampire planted here by a being that creates life."
Lance's head was covered in black lines after hearing this. This kind of self-deprecating method could only be said by Ripple.
"Do you think you can live to leave the Holy Land"
Lance disapproved.
“My purpose in doing this was to divert the attention of the mole, allowing him to relax his guard. I also had a legitimate reason to leave the holy ground, and he wouldn't suspect anything, even if he informed the creator being. If they knew I had the 'lantern tree' seeds on me, they would definitely send someone to 'receive' me.”
Ripples blinked and smiled, saying,
"When the time comes, please assist me, Count Laurence. It will surely be foolproof."
"Your ideas are bold, but this is not something I can accomplish alone. I need to consult with Lord Parth."
"Okay, I'll be waiting for your good news."
Ripples smiled and said.
After Lance left, Ripples' face fell. It had been three days since she returned, and the three marquises hadn't reached a consensus. She suspected that one of the three marquises was in cahoots with the creator of the bio-weapons, and the seeds were the bargaining chip offered by the vampire mole. After all, only they could enter that place unimpeded.
And in order to remain undetected, the other party would certainly not want Elizabeth Duchess to be awakened. If the Duchess woke up, then everything would come to light, and this mole would be exposed for their efforts. That's why they have been delaying time all along.
Ripples thought about it carefully, and out of the three marquesses, Pate seemed to be the most suspect.
First, he has been stationed in the Holy Land for a hundred years, so he had many chances to come into contact with seeds. Especially recently, to deal with the Bio-Creation Corporation, he personally took a seed and created chaos in Brook Town. This is clearly a case of being blatantly dishonest under the light.
Furthermore, when he collects the seeds, there is a high chance he will take other seeds as well. To create chaos, he uses this as an excuse to leave the holy site, which makes her suspect that he is taking the box of seeds to directly trade with the creator of life.
Third, and most importantly, if he is truly connected to the creation of life, then he would certainly be very aware of the fact that he is an artificial vampire. However, he still concealed it for her, even claiming she had the bloodline of Lilith. This is quite intriguing.
So, while this plan might seem reckless and riddled with holes, it's a good opportunity for both Pat and the Marquess. She believes the Marquess won't refuse.
As expected, the next evening, Count Lance came to find Ripples with a furrowed brow.
"Lord Patten agrees with your plan, and he has also agreed to work with you."
"That's great, I will definitely complete the task!"
Ripple said happily, "As expected, Pat couldn't sit still after all."
Act before daybreak. Someone will be waiting for you outside.
"Yes, Count Lance, just wait for my good news!"
At six in the morning, ripples, like a ghost, flashed into the underground cryogenic chamber at the heart of the Holy Land. Here, not only were the seeds of the Lantern Tree stored, but also three slumbering dukes.
She acted half an hour early, just to wake up Duchess Elizabeth. Only then could Lord Patters be subdued after he left. Otherwise, if he retaliated against her, the mission would fail and she'd be dead.
The ripples successfully snapped the guard's neck, and then she discovered that the freezer door was already open. It was clearly a help from Lord Patrehouse's men.
She dashed inside and went straight to the coffin containing Elizabeth's body, but it was locked with a complicated cipher that she couldn't crack for a while.
Ripple thought for a moment, then decided to break it by force. She didn't have time to waste here slowly cracking the code.
Taking out the Lei Yao Sword from space, he directly swung it in a horizontal arc. The coffin lid burst open at the same time the alarm sounded.
The ripple moved swiftly, drawing a blood bag from the void and piercing Elizabeth's withered body directly. Then, he closed the coffin lid again and vanished up to the next level.
Her ears twitched. Many blood races were rushing into the underground. She randomly grabbed a box of frozen seeds, then raised her hands with two swords, destroying the entire freezer room. Sword intent crackling with lightning spread throughout the room.
Ripple didn't have the time to wait for the results. She directly left the underground through a slightly open door and, using secret passages, successfully exited the holy land with astonishing ease.
When she emerged from the ground, a black SUV was waiting for her.
"Hurry, the temple guards will be here soon."
A man with a bushy beard poked his head out and said impatiently.
"Okay."
Ripple got into the car at top speed, with a flick of her wrist, the deadly silk wrapped around the necks of the three people in the car, instantly decapitating them. Then she slammed on the gas and disappeared from the road.
At this moment, at the highest point of the holy ground, Duke Pat watched as the carriage drove away in the distance, a graceful smile playing on his lips.
My Lord, someone broke into the underground cold storage, killed the guard, destroyed the freezer room, and also took away the lantern tree seeds.
"Do you know who did it"
"She is the captain of the ripples."
"Alert everyone, apprehend Ripples. I trusted her so much, she turned out to be a traitor. It's my fault for being negligent. I thought that a bloodline descendant of Lilith wouldn't betray the Blood Clan."head and said."What!"The prince's steps faltered, and he immediately strode toward Phoenix Nest Palace.When he entered the Fengqi Palace, what he saw were three corpses laid out in the middle.The Empr...
