Chapter 335: The Count of the Count’s Death (Part 1)
Translator: 549690339
On the other hand, Liz was beside the Earl.
When this young lady saw the true appearance of the ” divine envoy ” her father had mentioned, although she had some guesses in her heart, when she really saw Shirley’s appearance, Liz could not help but purse her lips tightly.
As expected…lt was her!
The culprit of the Fire Code City’s disaster had easily killed Bishop Greco. He was able to command the bone dragon and Vivian to fight to the death. In the end, they had to rely on Little Black to join forces to kill him.
This should be the case, but why…
Liz could not see any signs of injury on Cher’s body. In fact, she even felt that the woman on the stone platform was even stronger than the one they had encountered at the beginning…Many! As expected.
Her father’s words verified Liz’s intuition.
“Lord Oracle, so you’re really fine. You’re not even injured at all. It’s really too… That was great! I’ve been worried about you and wanted to do my best to take revenge for you…”
The count was sincere in his words.
Because of this, Liz’s heart ached more and more. So this was her father’s true face.
Right now, Count Cecil ran to the stone platform where Shirley was and knelt down. He gave Liz the feeling that he was a loyal pet dog. With the order of his female owner, even if he wanted to lick his feet, Liz felt that her father would not hesitate to go over.
It was too ugly…
The girl clenched her fists. Her father’s appearance made her rage rise in her chest. However, the target of her anger was not Count Cecil himself, but the culprit who caused her father to become like this.
Now, the woman on the stone platform, the “Oracle” of the Abyss.
And…
She didn’t know where she was, who she was, or even her name or family, her mother.
The young girl puffed out her chest and raised her head. Liz didn’t hide her hostility towards Cher at all.
As for Xue Li.
She naturally felt Liz’s hostility.
She shifted her gaze away from the Count and focused on the human girl who wanted to fight her right now, but because she knew the difference in strength between them, she could only stand where she was and rage at her incompetence.
What was the greatest humiliation to the enemy?
At the very least, the feeling that Cher gave Liz was that of humiliation. This was because the young girl realized that the hostile gaze that Cher gave her didn’t even last for a breath before she looked away.
Liz knew that she had been ignored by the other party, like an ant on the side of the road.
The girl’s fingernails dug deep into her flesh.
“I remember that in the letter to you, only you and your daughter were mentioned, right? Who is she?”
Cher’s voice was as cold as her eyes, and it sounded like she was questioning him.
The ” she ” in Cher’s words was naturally referring to the last person present, the Vice Head Maid, Lina, who had a very low sense of presence from the beginning to the end.
“Lord Divine Envoy, she, she is someone I brought here specially to introduce to you. She is the result of my many years of hard work in the Fire Code City! “The Earl was shocked and quickly explained.
Fortunately, Cher paused for a few seconds as if she was thinking, but in fact, she was waiting for someone’s instructions. Soon, Cher’s tone changed to one of curiosity.
“Oh? Then tell me in detail.”
“It’s Lord Oracle!” The change in Shirley’s tone gave the earl great encouragement.
He wished he could expose the color of his underwear.
“It’s like this. Ever since I received God’s grace, I’ve been thinking about how to spread this gift to more people and develop more followers of our Fallen Abyss. Therefore, I’ve asked the butler to buy a large number of maids from the countryside to the manor every year and use them to study the possibility of developing subordinates.”
“Father, you…!” Lissy was shocked when she heard the Earl’s crazy words.
There would be a new batch of maids in the manor every year. This was nothing new to Lize. It was impossible for her to not guess that there was something going on, but she had never thought about human experiments. At most, it was a common problem of nobles who liked to play with maids.
It was precisely because of this that the young lady had been trying her best to act like an unreasonable young lady in the manor. Whenever a maid made a mistake, she would fire her. In fact, it was because Liz felt that it was better to fire her directly than to be abandoned after being played with.
Liz, I’ve seen all your little tricks over the years, but it’s useless. As long as a
maid is selected to enter the manor, she will be secretly injected with a drug on the back of her neck the day before she takes up her job.
” This potion has two functions. The first is to hide in the host’s body. Normally, I won’t be able to feel anything, but once I need to use it, it will immediately activate and occupy the host’s consciousness. At the cost of consuming potential and lifespan, it will greatly increase the physical strength
of the host and become a powerful death warrior who will obey our Fallen Abyss.”
“Of course, there are lucky ones among them. This is the second effect of the drug. It can subtly transform the human body. It allows the modified body to give birth to a brand new ability. However, so far, I have not even seen a second type of test subject…’
After Count Sisre finished speaking, he gave a few orders to the servant girl, asking Lina to display her outstanding combat ability in front of Shirley. It was exactly as described. She would probably be considered an elite in the Fire Order Knights.
With such a huge contribution, the earl was excited and looked forward to the praise from the oracle.
But the result disappointed him.
And… Panic.
Because he only heard Xue Li’s cold words, like a hailstone, fiercely smashing his head, making him feel a little dizzy and confused. “You said that you developed a medicine?”
“Yes!”
“Then did you bring the sample with you? “Xue Li asked bluntly.
‘Yes… Err… Eh?”
The Earl was about to say yes. After all, according to normal logic, it was impossible for him not to offer the potion to the Oracle, but his brain told him that he…There was no medicine.
No, that’s not right!
He must have had the medicine. Otherwise, who was the one who injected the maids? Where did the Battle Maid come from?
The Earl’s brain seemed to be stuck in an endless loop, but very soon, fortunately, the problem was not complicated, and he automatically found a way to return to logic.
“Damn it! I deserve to die, Lord Oracle! Such an important thing, I… I actually forgot to bring it!”
“Is that so?” Shirley didn’t say much about this, as if she already knew this would happen.
But she quickly asked again.
“Since you researched it yourself, you must still remember the formula, right? Tell me.
“Of course! Lord Oracle!”
Shirley’s words made Count Sisre slap his forehead. What was wrong with his brain? He forgot to bring the medicine. He could still use the formula to remedy the situation!
Therefore, the Earl quickly searched his memories, trying to find the formula of the potion he had been researching.
But the result was…
“Uh… Uh…” The earl was stumped. His words seemed to be stuck in his throat, and he could not say a word.
It was strange.
He was the one who did the research, and the evidence was that there were still fragments of the scene in his memory. But why couldn’t he remember what the formula was?
No!
I can’t let down the expectations of the Lord Oracle…No!
The earl gritted his teeth and began to activate his brain frantically. It was as if he was using a magnifying glass to enlarge the words on the potion formula in his memory.
However, if it was blank, it would be useless no matter how much it was enlarged.
“Ah… Uh ah…” The count began to groan in pain.
Everv time he wanted to delve deeper into those surface memories, it was as if there was an invisible wall blocking him, preventing him from thinking deeper. This feeling made him feel extremely uncomfortable and flustered.
The Earl clutched his head, feeling a splitting headache.
He was like a mentally ill patient.
“Father…Father? ” Liz took a few steps back towards the Count.
The young girl subconsciously turned to look at Cher, who had caused her father to become like this. However, Chers expression remained the same. She did not even frown at Count Sisre’s crazy behavior, as if she had already expected it.
Behind Cher, the wolf cubs who were secretly observing the scene suddenly felt that the current Count Sisre was very similar to a scene in a movie.
It was the kind of person who had been brainwashed by hypnosis. Under the stimulation of the environment, he gradually realized the loopholes and illogicality in the information he had been forcefully instilled. Then, he realized a terrifying fact.
On his own. It wasn’t him..
