  Chapter 426 Become a storm!

  Stoke straightened his black cloak and smoothed his hair back with his fingers. His red eyes stared at the huge crystal mirror in front of him. The person in the mirror had pale skin and an evil smile at the corner of his mouth.

   Image is important.

  A successful vampire must have a popular image.

  Most people have no access to Stoke, and can only generate a vague concept through word of mouth from others.

  Cruel, cruel, sharp as the eyes and beak of a falcon, and as vicious as a snake in the dark, but he is willing to give alms and lead the monks to practice in Ertang Jialan... The moody black-hearted Earl is Stoke in people's eyes.

   These are the results of Stoke's deliberate guidance.

  Prince had said to him.

   "Stoke, you have to understand that the power that the vampire family is proud of comes from the power of our unique blood, and the second is fear."

   "Remember, no matter what kind of person you are, creating fear is essential. This is the most universal and the closest force to safety. If you don't want to be destroyed by the storm, then become a storm."

  Stoke listened.

  The vampire family is displaced in any world, because the birth of this race carries original sin.

  The source of the ethnic group, the ancestor of vampires is a blasphemer, and many people think he is a traitor, which is also true. It's just that he betrayed the group of gods - the ancestor himself was once a powerful main god.

  However, he gave up and stripped his godhead and power, walked in the world as a monster, and was considered a complete madman and madman.

  The vampire family born from the ancestors wanders in many worlds. The place where the vampires exist, in a sense, represents the footprints left by the ancestors.

  But no one is sure whether the ancestors came to the abyss.

  Prince is not clear either.

  According to the rules of the vampire clan, the prince will lead the vampires in one place to maintain the safety and order of the local clan.

  When the prince falls into weakness, the prince will give way to the next prince, or the clan will elect a prince from among the dukes. In short, the title of prince represents the leader of a certain world vampire clan.

   On the fifth floor of the abyss, the prince once led the vampire family through the most difficult period. He repelled the attack of the demigods and captured the spectacle Ertang Jialan. But before he could settle down, he died at the hands of three vampire dukes.

  The cause of death was usurpation.

  Once the prince recovers, the three dukes will never have another chance.

  Stoke felt emotional in his heart.

  The prince repeatedly emphasized the importance of fear, but he also fell on it.

   It is not easy to maintain fear for a long time.

  So after Stoke killed the other competitors, he changed his mind.

  One of the sources of fear is the unknown, as long as people can't figure it out, it can also bring a deterrent effect.

  Stoke created a series of widely circulated scenes.

  He killed the enemy, pierced it with a spear, and fixed it on the border to show his force.

  He will retaliate against all forces that attack his territory, sneak attack, poison, set fire, and destroy the enemy's young generation and reserve forces, leaving behind a grim smile painted with blood.

   Cruelty and vengeance have become one of Stoke's dark side images, which makes many forces highly vigilant against him and unwilling to provoke him.

  But on the bright side, Stoke is willing to make deals with various forces, exchanging the Almighty Stone for food and various resources. Especially Noland and Hu Yizi, who possessed the miracles, had a lot of food.

   Ertang Jialan is always open to hungry people. The thick soup in the cafeteria has never been delicious, but it can always fill the stomach.

  However, if anyone wants to cause trouble, the Garan Guardian will recover from the practice and defeat the invading enemy with the fury of thunder.

  …

   Today's visitor to the castle is a distinguished guest.

  It has a bear-cat face, thinner than a bear, but much bigger than a cat. The distinguished guest was wearing a simple robe and carrying a backpack, his small eyes seemed to be thinking about something all the time.

"welcome."

  Stoke waved his hand: "Mr. Xiaozhi, it has been more than a hundred years since we last said goodbye. You still haven't changed at all, and you seem to be in good spirits."

   Zhi Chong also responded politely: "Mr. Duke is still very personable."

  Both parties exchanged a few polite words, and then got straight to the point.

   "This time, I am here as a special envoy of the Four Kingdoms, and I want to discuss cooperation with Mr. Duke."

  Stoke knew it well: "Ertang Jialan has always wanted to do trade with the Sifang Kingdom. You also know that there is always a shortage of food in the cafeteria. The farmlands and pastures of the Sifang Kingdom are really enviable."

   "It's just that Hu Yizi's cavalry are always harassing and looting around. The trade route may have to be detoured to avoid being looted."

   "Don't worry about this, there is no problem now."

  Smart insect said.

  Stoke was a little surprised: "Is the Sifang Kingdom and the people's stables settled?"

   Zhi Chong scratched his face with his paws: "The people's stables have been taken over by Sifang Kingdom."

   "Took over..."

Stoke looked puzzled: "You mean, the Sifang Kingdom has captured the human stables? But yesterday, my vampire squad fought against their cavalry. It's not that I don't believe it, it's just that how can they capture the entire world in just one day?" What about the stables?"

"Hu Yizi's main force is more than 6,000 horsemen and cavalry, and there are about 10,000 reserve soldiers. Not to mention these, there are more than 300,000 people in his territory, even if it is 300,000 pigs... it is difficult to kill them all in one day. "

   "You're right."

   Zhi Chong nodded to his question: "But our method is quite special."

   It whistled once.

  A tall figure wrapped in a cloak stepped over the threshold and walked in slowly.

  The servants are dressed similarly to their masters, they are all dressed in robes, and they also carry a huge backpack on their backs. His face was shaded by the shadow of his hood, illuminated by the castle's chandelier.

  However, even though it was half-hidden, Stoke recognized each other at a glance.

  Square face with broad nose, fierce eyes, broad shoulders full of strength, and the blue wild tattoo on the face...

  Stoke's hand holding the wine glass also trembled slightly: "Hu Yizi...how did he become like this?"

  Under the order of Zhi Chong, the tall servant lifted his hood, revealing a clear face inside. The stored power on his body, as well as the oppressive sense of power brought by the body itself, all prove that this is the demigod tiger Yizi without a doubt.

   It's just that at this moment, his eyes are slack, and he has lost the vigor of the past.

   "Of course I can't do it."

Zhi Chong smiled embarrassedly: "Although I can eat his brain, the premise is that he does not resist at all. However, Lord Yao has lowered his divine power, and Hu Yizi is just a bigger bug. .”

  Stoke saw the other party's proud appearance, and couldn't help but curse in his heart.

  What are you laughing at, you are also a bug!

  At the same time, he was also amazed by the power of the God Yao.

Although Hu Yizi has lost his godhead, his own strength is extremely powerful. It is almost an impossible task to forcibly kill Hu Yizi who is guarded by cavalry—he can quickly escape from danger at any time, and it is even more difficult to capture Hu Yizi alive imagine.

  But the facts are in front of us.

   This confused Stoker a bit.

what to do?

  The Yao God served by the Four Kingdoms did it himself, indicating that He is bound to win this place. Hu Yizi is the first, and who is next? Noland, or me?

  “…I ate his brains, tamed this guy, and got a lot of interesting secrets from him. Now he has no brains and has become my hound, and he will no longer be a threat.”

  Smart insect moved its arms, and its ten claws stretched and retracted slightly.

  Stoke said calmly: "Did you shoot Noland?"

   "Duke is really sharp."

   Zhi Chong blinked: "But don't worry, Norland has never been a problem, because he is also ours."

   "Lord Yaoshen has always been generous and tolerant towards his own people. Of course, if it is a stubborn enemy, then we will also clean it up for Lord Shenming. This is also the duty of subordinates, right?"

   "..."

  Stoke immediately realized that the worst had come.

   "Duke, I am here today not to trade with you, but to inform you."

A bat flew in from the window and landed on the ground, recovering into a slender vampire body. He said anxiously: "My lord, there are all reorganized mage groups outside, as well as the army of corpse demons... there are too many of them. The defense lines are bordering each other, and the enemy is coming prepared."

  Stoke expressionless: "Don't panic, go outside and wait for my order."

  The vampire turned into a bat and flew out again.

   "You want Ertang Jialan."

  Stoke looked at the intelligent insect.

"No."

   Zhi Chong shook his head: "Ertang Jialan was originally ours. As long as the fire of faith from the gods, it can be easily transformed...I came here to inform you."

   "Duke Stoke, in the name of Lord Yao, your ability has been recognized by the Sifang Kingdom, and you have been recruited by us."

  Stoke looked stunned: "Conscript?"

"good."

   Zhi Chong said: "Your territory and your subordinates will be incorporated into the Sifang Kingdom. You can refuse, but in that case we will be regarded as a stubborn enemy."

   “…I need a moment to think about it.”

"OK."

  …

  Stoke walked all the way to the balcony on the bottom floor of the castle, and the cold wind made his cloak rattle.

  The fifth layer of the abyss is still foggy, but he can see clearly.

  On the hill in front of the castle, the tide-like warriors of the Four Kingdoms, Norland's mage group, and centaur cavalry had all assembled, quietly waiting for the order to attack.

   And behind the castle, there is Ertang Jialan.

  Stoke comes here every time he makes a major decision.

  The prince was also here when he told him in the past.

Countless thoughts flashed through Stoke's mind, and there are two more useful countermeasures: one is to escape by himself—hiding in the dueling forest, although he will not be able to come out, but he will also gain temporary safety in it; the other is to resist with all his strength , hoping to use Garan Guardian and monks to stop the enemy's footsteps.

  The muddleheaded Hu Yizi downstairs is the end of failure.

  Stoke pinched the bridge of his nose with his hands, closed his eyes and meditated.

  He needs to make a difficult choice in a short time.

   Life-changing choices often come without warning.

   Like the day many years ago when three dukes murdered the prince together. When they were discussing how to take turns being the prince, an unremarkable earl detonated the blood of the prince's body. They were seriously injured in the explosion, and then executed by the young earl one by one.

   On the fifth floor of the abyss, the vampire family also lost three dukes on the same day they lost their prince.

  Many clansmen have discussed in private that this is a long-planned plan by Stoke, but in fact, it is just a judgment and action made by Stoke in a short period of time.

   Opportunities in this world are fleeting and don’t wait until you’re ready to be perfect.

  The prince's vague and powerful voice was still in his ears.

  —If you don’t want to be destroyed by a storm, be a storm.

  Stoke took a deep breath, combed his hair back and pressed it properly with his hands.

  He turned around and went downstairs slowly, with a decent but not flattering smile on his face, all the way to the messenger.

   “Honored to be called up and happy to stand with the winner.”

  Zhi Chong grinned: "I'll just say, you will definitely make a smart choice. Norland also said that you are a better candidate for recruitment than Hu Yizi."

  Behind it, Hu Yizi stared ahead blankly with empty eyes, like a hunting dog that has lost its prey.
