Chapter 649: Chapter 426: New Clue
Kosain Fortress, in the Lord’s bedroom,
The Lord of this place, Mansa Kosain, was also the Golden-level Vampire, Dick.
But Lord Kosain had no power to resist in Lis’s hands, the terrifying aura emitted by the two people in front of him quashed any notion of rebellion.
Especially when Dick looked at Lis sitting before him, for some reason he felt a sense of terror, as if he was facing his natural predator.
Lis didn’t know that his Specialty [Vampire Hunter], gained from killing numerous vampires, had such an effect. In any case, it made no difference to him.
The vampire Dick in front of him was the last Gold-level Vampire in the Bolin Kingdom.
Previously, Lis had instructed the vampire Andre to gather all the Gold-level Vampires in Kate City to be captured at once, but this guy had not attended.
At the time, Andre thought he could deceive Lis by using a clone skill, but after Lis dealt with Antoine and many other vampires together with Angela using the Legendary Secret Treasure, he still managed to find a greatly weakened Andre outside the city, tracking him through the mark left on Andre before.
It was for this reason that on that night, Lis didn’t manage to deal with the Vampire Devitt in time, and eventually the Legendary Vampire Benfica came knocking.
Although the outcome was still decent for Lis, it was still a rather hair-raising situation in retrospect.
That very night, having gotten the information about the last Gold-level Vampire, Dick, from Andre, Lis had made a mental note of it.
After all, eliminating all the High-level Vampires within the Bolin Kingdom was the task given to Angela by Lord Burns.
At that time, Lis had planned to take another trip the next day to deal with Vampire Dick, but the subsequent chain of events had left him no time to attend to this matter.
However, in the end, Lis still met with Lord Burns, so whether the task was completed or not no longer mattered.
But now, for another reason, Lis had come here.
This time, it was not to fulfill Lord Burns’s task; it was Lis’s own choice.
From Lord Burns, Lis had received the crucial confirmation that the Legendary-level Vampire Benfica was under the service of Demon Prince Demogorgon.
Lis was keenly aware that the destruction of the Elf Court was a scheme orchestrated by the Demon Prince and that it was something set to happen soon.
The destruction of the Elf Court, whether for the Elf Kingdom or the Elf God System, would be a significant blow.
Even for a powerful being like the Demon Prince, it would be considerably difficult to carry out such a plan without the Elf God System noticing.
At this time, the appearance of a Legendary Vampire in the Berlin Kingdom made Lis almost certain that the Legendary Vampire Benfica was connected to Demogorgon’s plans.
Benfica might even be a critical part of the plan.
However, unfortunately, Lis got no information about Benfica’s activities within the Elf Kingdom from Lord Burns.
That was unavoidable. Although Burns could utilize Cain’s strength, obtaining information from the soul of a Legendary Evil God believer was too difficult.
Nevertheless, Lis was not completely without a plan.
If Benfica could entrust Legendary Secret Treasure to Vampire Antoine, then that meant Antar and his group were very important to Benfica.
Even for Legendary beings, to encapsulate Legendary-level power into a magic item was extremely difficult.
Take for instance, Uncle Joyce and Mr. Stephens, the trump cards they bestowed upon Lis were meant for saving one’s life and did not contain Legendary-level offensive power.
If it was just a matter of keeping Antoine and his people safe, basic protective Magic Items would suffice; there was no need for such a tremendously powerful Secret Treasure.
Lis remembered, when he saw that enormous blood-colored claw descending from the sky, he had no confidence in resisting and could only opt for Space Transmission to escape.
Hence, if Benfica gave the Legendary Secret Treasure to Antoine and his group, it was not just for their protection, but perhaps also for eliminating enemies in desperate moments.
This indicated that the secretive tasks being carried out by Antoine and his group might be important, important enough that even the Legendary Vampire Benfica took great heed of them.
If that was truly the case, considering that Benfica might be lurking in the Elf Forest due to Demogorgon’s schemes, scheming the destruction of the Elf Royal Court in secrecy,
then it could be that upon sensing the usage of the Legendary Secret Treasure he had given to Antoine and that Antoine’s group was dead, Benfica was prompted to come find them.
In that case, Lis was very interested in whatever Antoine and his group were doing in secret.
As controllers of the underground world of the Bolin Kingdom, the Gold-level Vampires could be involved in a multitude of activities.
Smuggling contraband, trafficking in slaves, ambush assassination, etc. – considering those alone, it’s hard for Lis to imagine what exactly Antoine and his group could do related to the destruction of the Elf Royal Court.
If it was about the Gold-level Assassins targeting Day Elves, such as the one who attacked Cecil, it’s possible that this was a handiwork of Antoine’s group, which seemed more plausible.
But that still wasn’t enough!
All he knew now was the inevitable destruction of the Elf Court, with Demon Prince Demogorgon as the puppet master behind the curtain, but many key pieces of the puzzle linking the two were still missing.
