The Earl's Secret

Completely immersed in ultimate joy.

Joy due to victory in the war

Joy at obtaining the land title

Joy because of the most ideal breaking of the seed,

Joy comes from understanding death.

As Han Dong was breaking through his seed, the Blood Hand was still playing a piano piece, and he couldn't help but start dancing... He smeared the Black Substance secreted from his body on the corners of his mouth, creating a crazy mouth symbolizing "mad laughter".

"Congratulations!"

As the dance ended, congratulations came from the audience.

With a wave of his hand, Han Dong brought Tuogu and Chen Li back into his body.

"Dr. Swollen, elders, thank you for your hard work... The war is over, there's nothing for you here, wait at the entrance of the Scarlet Manor."

After my friends and I finish dealing with the remaining 'trivial matters,' we'll all leave together.

"Yes!"

Inside the theater.

Only Han Dong remained.

"Where is Abel?" Lucius asked.

Han Dong immediately waved his hand, indicating that there was no need to worry about Abel's situation, "He should also be breaking the seed, there's no need to concern yourself with him."

The matter is not over yet; the task that Mr. Black and White gave me and Demps is only just beginning.

Senior students, please come along too; this is of great importance.

"Mr. Black and White's mission? Could it be that someone in the Holy City is colluding with the Earl?"

Lucius reacted very quickly. He had long suspected the Blood Plague that had occurred in the Holy City... For the plague to spread in the city, the prerequisite was that someone carrying the plague enter the city.

The Holy City is heavily guarded; how could it possibly allow ordinary people infected by the Blood Brew to infiltrate the Slums? Clearly, someone is causing trouble.

"That's right...and the matter goes far beyond the Red Plague Incident; the entire Holy City is under this person's control."

"Please, senior students, help us search the Private Theater for hidden mechanisms; there should be a secret passage leading deeper inside."

Although Han Dong took over the land deed, he was not familiar with the structure of the manor.

soon.

Senior Sister Zhen used the shadows to blend in and find the hidden compartment mechanism.

Clang! The gears turn, and the platform descends.

Spiral Staircase leading deeper into the stage opens at the bottom.

The lower part corresponds to several important areas, including:

The Earl's Secret Room used to store land deeds

The secret treasure trove of the Scarlet Manor.

And his own secret office, which is somehow completely isolated from the manor.

The office contains a large number of parchment scrolls, letters, and some special communication tools, all of which symbolize the Earl's private network of relationships with non- Blood God forces.

"Hahaha~ Ah!"

Upon discovering the Earl's secret office, Han Dong couldn't help but burst into wild laughter.

Han Dong quickly pinched his cheeks with both hands to stop laughing uncontrollably. "Don't mind me... I'm still a little out of control [laughs uncontrollably]. Let's all search for clues together..."

As people read these documents, their expressions changed to varying degrees.

"This Earl is simply using the convenience of ' Mobile Deed ' to profit himself... All his aggressions are based on high bounties and the needs of other forces."

The Earl himself had connections with at least five Old King Faction.

To maximize profits from all acts of aggression.

"No wonder there are some strange individuals in the Imperial Guard who don't use the power of bloodline at all... Moreover, the Imperial Guard was trained by the Earl through other Pathway."

"This letter is a bit strange..."

It was discovered by Senior Sister Zhen again, hidden at the bottom of the cabinet, a white letter without any signature.

The text inside was also encrypted and even interspersed with a large number of strange symbols that were missing limbs.

Han Dong took the letter and found that it was not written in the language of the outside world, and his Lesser Demon Eye could not decipher it.

"Since it's a letter meant for the Earl to read, it might be targeted and only the Earl can understand it... Let's try this."

Han Dong took out a bottle of blood-brewed wine stored in the lower cabinet of his office and splashed it directly onto the white paper letter.

The strange symbols were completed by the infusion of blood wine, and some of the superfluous parts of the characters were also eliminated by the blood wine, turning into a kind of script outside the city that Han Dong could read.

A smile spread across Han Dong's face.

"Mission accomplished. Once this thing is handed over to Mr. Black and White, it will be enough to eliminate the big things in the Holy City."

Furthermore, this matter involves very troublesome people. Seniors, after returning to the Holy City, please go to your respective Knight Order immediately. Getting involved might bring you unnecessary trouble.

"Besides..." Lucius himself harbored a deep hatred for traitors.

"Next, I need to conduct the transfer ceremony in the land deed storage room... Captain Lucius, Demps, you two stay here."

Senior Sister Zhen and Senior Brother Lunze are waiting for us at the manor.

We will leave via a secret mountain passage and then be transferred by the Arakkoa... We will first go to the Stuart Manor, and then transfer to a secret carriage to return to the Holy City.

During this time, if any Knight Order attempt to find us and escort us back to the city, we must avoid them.

"Avoiding the Knight Order? Could it be... that the person mentioned in this letter will kill us outside the city to cover it up?"

"There is a possibility that we must secretly sneak back to the Holy City and deliver this letter to the gentleman... We must not let our guard down until the person involved in the letter is brought to trial."

"Who exactly is this person that the Knight Order can control?" Lucius's curiosity was piqued.

"A high-ranking figure comparable to a regimental commander."

Upon hearing this, Lucius's expression turned serious, and he nodded in acknowledgment of Han Dong's plan.

Under Han Dong's arrangement, the three of them arrived at a secluded room with a land deed.

"Hahaha!!"

Another burst of wild laughter erupted. Han Dong's emotions seemed to be amplified by the breaking of his seed, and even the slightest provocation could make Han Dong laugh uncontrollably.

"... I'm a little too happy. The wealth of the Scarlet Manor is far beyond my expectations. I have decided that I will be the first owner and manager of the land title."

Demps, you are the second holder.

"And Lucius, you have been formally granted the title of Viscount through the ' Red Banquet ' hosted by the Blood God... I would like to request that you, as the third holder, have the right to freely enter the manor and control a portion of the bloodline."

Han Dong's Choice was made after careful consideration.

Although the land deeds have changed according to the rules of war and the ownership of the former king has changed... the surface of the land deeds has been branded with a yellow seal, replacing the former mark of the Blood God.

However, this matter inevitably attracted the attention of the Blood God, and even his resentment.

After all, according to the Yellow Robe Man, Active Deed are quite rare.

If Lucius, who was personally granted the title by the Blood God, were to become one of the holders, the likelihood of the Blood God coming to him would be greatly reduced, and it might even open up a special connection.

"If I participate in the Great Expedition, I can bring the mobile manor with me. Captain Lucius, you can use the manor to unleash your full potential."

"OK."

that's all.

All three people left their names on the surface of the land deed.
