Chapter 221: Legend of the Blood Clan (5)
When he woke up again, Shi Qi looked at the four men who were staring at him, feeling a little confused.
"Why are you staring at me?" Shi Qi stood up slowly and felt the strength in his body returning to normal.
"Your Highness, you are finally awake." The silver-haired man smiled flamboyantly, with a gleam in his eyes.
"Your Highness, you have been in a coma for a week, and I thought... woohoo." The blond man covered his face and seemed about to cry.
"Stay away, you're scaring His Highness." The black-haired man had a stern expression and frowned slightly.
Only Dill kept his head down and said nothing, with his fists clenched.
"I'm fine. Sorry for the trouble." Shi Qi came out of the coffin and stretched his muscles. Suddenly, an extremely fresh fragrance filled the air, which was extremely alluring.
Seeing Shi Qi's strangeness, Dier stepped forward and said, "Your Highness, are you hungry? I just sent someone to get a blood potion."
Before Shi Qi could react, Dill clapped his hands, and a row of servants carrying plates appeared in the corridor.
Cups of scarlet liquid were rippling slightly, looking extremely tempting under the light.
Instinctively, Shi Qi's throat rolled and his eyes changed slightly.
"Don't worry, Your Highness. I've prepared the chicken blood according to your previous requests." Dill saw Shi Qi's hesitation and continued to explain.
Shi Qi nodded, and under the pressure of his inner desire, he picked up the cup and drank it quickly.
Although it tasted delicious, I always felt like something was missing.
"Your Highness, the nobles have invited you to a banquet tonight. You have just recovered from your illness, so do you want to turn it down?" Dill said slowly after seeing Shi Qi finish drinking.
"No need, I'll just pack up and leave." Shi Qi replied.
In the past, the original owner would not participate in such invitations, because those noble gatherings were nothing more than eating, drinking and having fun, and they even captured many people every year to serve as blood slaves.
Although the original owner was not happy, he did not break the rules of the blood clan that had been in place for thousands of years.
With blood servants, vampires can suck blood in a certain amount and reduce the harm to humans.
However, only nobles can own this blood servant.
It's funny to say, probably because vampires have particularly outstanding looks and live a rich and luxurious life, these captured blood servants will hardly leave, and can't even be driven away.
But some nobles don't think so. What they want... is always fresh blood.
Because there is no plot routine, every step Shi Qi takes is crucial.
As someone the world rules want to get rid of, Shi Qi feels...that he really needs a cheat.
For example...Shangguan Qing.
Perhaps it was because of the halo of being the protagonist, Shangguan Qing would blend into the vampires at every banquet, big or small, in previous years to inquire about news.
The reason she went there this time was, firstly, to establish good relations with those nobles, and secondly, if it was convenient...she would curry favor with them.
"Your Highness, are you really going? Those nobles... will make things difficult for you." The black-haired man had a cold face, frowned slightly and looked a little worried.
"That's even better. I will put an end to their thoughts." Shi Qi sneered, his eyes sharp.
Every tribe will have internal strife, let alone the powerful vampires.
Fortunately, the four princes around the original owner were all trustworthy people.
"Guldesimi, Nayechun Yinxi, Freuman...uh, I feel that calling you by your names makes us seem too distant, so from now on I will call you Ah Hei, Ah Jin, and Ah Yin." Shi Qi blinked and said lightly.
"Really? As long as Your Highness likes it, we also want to be closer to Your Highness." The blond man supported his face with chubby cheeks.
Shi Qi: “…”
The main thing is...she can't remember it.
"What about Dill? Xiaohong?" The silver-haired man played with his hair, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and asked back with his soul.
Dill: “…”
"Dil is Dir, they are both two words, there is no need to change it." Shi Qi's mouth twitched slightly, and he waved his hand generously.
"Okay, your highness has just woken up and needs to rest. Let's not disturb him anymore." Dill raised his eyes and said softly.
Although his expression was cold, it was not difficult to see that there was joy in his brows.
After saying goodbye, the four men disappeared from Shi Qi's sight in unison.
After finally quieting down, Shi Qi breathed a sigh of relief, went to the cloakroom, and began to prepare for the evening banquet.
......
Western noble castle.
Surrounded by numerous thorns and blooming roses, the walls are covered with dark green vines, the moonlight is dim, and the candlelight is flickering and bright.
Outside the heavy carved wooden door, the decoration is gorgeous and high-profile.
Nobles entered the venue elegantly with their male and female companions. The venue was very lively with high-end dresses, bright red carpets, and attendants everywhere.
The castle at night seems to be revived. In the hall, the candlesticks are gorgeous, the fireplace is warm, the tableware is neatly arranged, and it is luxurious and high-profile.
The dark red carpet extends along the spiral staircase all the way to the upper floor. The candle oil is bright red and has a faint fragrance.
I saw a very handsome, tall and beautiful young man slowly walking down the stairs.
White suit, golden curly hair, deep blue eyes, exquisite and elegant.
"Hello, distinguished guests. It's a pleasure to have you all attend this banquet. Her Majesty the Queen will be here soon. Please wait for a moment and have fun first." The man spoke calmly, giving people a strong sense of oppression between his words.
The hall was filled with handsome men and beautiful women, all of whom had outstanding looks.
As soon as the man finished speaking, someone spoke up: "Marquis Telles, you know Her Highness's character. She won't meet with us."
"Yes, yes, she is nowhere to be seen all day. If it weren't for the blood mark, I would have suspected that we would no longer have this queen." Another woman whispered.
"Yes, in my opinion, if it weren't for those four princes, she wouldn't be as powerful as you, Marquis?" said a woman, her eyes unconsciously looking at the man down the stairs with a shy look on her face.
Among their blood clan, apart from the four unattainable princes, the most outstanding and handsome one is Marquis Telles, who is mysterious, powerful, gentle and polite.
The man was stunned for a moment, and a hint of pride flashed across his deep blue eyes, but it was just right blocked by his glasses.
"Thank you for the compliment, Miss Mina. I am just doing odd jobs to the best of my ability. I cannot be compared with Your Highness. Please don't criticize me..." The man spoke softly, which drew unanimous praise from the women present.
"Tsk, she did something big? Apart from staying in the castle all day, has she ever done anything good for us? There are quite a lot of restrictions and rules." A curly-haired woman sneered.
"You bunch of brainless women, what did His Highness do wrong? In the battle a few days ago, His Highness went to the battlefield in person. Without her, we might have been wiped out. But what about you? You guys are the ones who ran faster than the other when the war started!" A blond man heard the discussions among the people present and felt indignant.
"..."
The quarrel continued.
"What? So the Marquis thinks that what I asked you to do are... just menial tasks?" Suddenly, a voice sounded without warning.
The high heels made a tapping sound as they stepped on the ground.
I saw a woman approaching, with slightly curled hair, a black dress and red lips, like a poppy, intoxicating. Her lazy voice was hazy and unreal.
"I am so sorry, Your Highness must have misunderstood me." The man was stunned for a moment, but he quickly adjusted himself and looked gentle and humble again.
"Really? I am stupid and misunderstood the Marquis. Why are you all silent? You guys continue. I am here to eat, drink and have fun." Shi Qi raised the corner of his mouth slightly, with an awe-inspiring aura, and walked straight to the seat of honor.
Everyone gasped and the atmosphere suddenly became quiet.
"That's right, everyone had a great time. Since you all came from far away, I naturally dare not neglect you. A few days ago, I found some fun things for you to choose from." Telles changed the subject, easing the awkward situation.
Shi Qi was stunned and hadn't reacted to what Tellus said.
It wasn't until she saw a row of people being escorted in from outside the door that she suddenly realized what was going on.
This is... the new blood servant?
I saw people tied up with iron chains, kneeling on the ground, their heads covered, and covered with knife wounds. The smell of blood immediately filled the entire hall. Everyone couldn't help but bare their fangs, and some expressions even became ferocious and full of desire.
"This is the blood servant I just found. However, this time they are not ordinary blood servants. They... are all blood hunters. Everyone, they must pay the price for the evil deeds they have done to us, right?" Tellus bared his fangs and licked his lips inconspicuously, leaving a bright red color.
Shi Qi looked at the tribesmen below who were ready to make a move, and sighed secretly, "I have said that one blood servant is enough, why do you keep changing it?"
"Your Highness, we originally had no intention of changing them, but think about it, it was the humans who broke the contract first, they will be hurt, won't we? Didn't we lose enough of our own kind in the war a few days ago?" said one of the men below, looking at the row of blood servants on the ground with a slightly angry expression.
"That's right!!!" everyone echoed.
Shi Qi: “…”
She just wanted to persuade him, not stop him.
But looking at the situation, these nobles are quite dissatisfied with the original owner and probably want to rebel.
This is outrageous, where is her dignity! ?
"You all worry too much. I was just making a suggestion. Now that they have violated the contract first, we naturally cannot be polite. It's just... I am really surprised that you are so angry with me." Shi Qi smiled lightly, his tone was indifferent, yet full of oppression.
As soon as he finished speaking, super-strong magical control emanated from around Shi Qi, and everyone felt that their power was suppressed and they were unable to refute.
After a long while, everyone bowed and agreed: "Your Highness is wise."
Shi Qi glanced around and did not find Shangguan Qing. She did not want to see such a bloody scene and thought of just leaving.
"Your Highness, don't be in a hurry to leave. Why don't you raise one of these too? The taste... is really wonderful." Telles said with a smile.
Shi Qi's mouth twitched, and he was about to shake his head, "No..."
Before he finished speaking, the system prompt sounded.
"Host, Ling Li is in there and is about to die!"
Shi Qi: “…”
Changing the subject, he smiled and said, "If I don't choose one, I will be wasting the Marquis's kindness."
