Secret: The undead do not die in the fire

Chapter 226 Kill Me If You Need Help
Under the reflection of the crimson moon, two figures, one big and one small, stretched out their bat wings and quietly left through the castle window without disturbing anyone.

Lilith looked at the silver-haired little girl who was flying unsteadily and was held by her so as not to fall, and said in a strange tone:

"So, now it's time to tell me where those people are?"

In the castle, perhaps Ornia was worried that Aleka would object, so she did not directly reveal the hiding places of the others. But now that they have left the castle, it would be unacceptable if they were still hiding it.

Olnia came back to her senses from the novelty and excitement of flying, and said:
"I don't know where they are."

"what?"

Lilith's eyes became dangerous, and she asked impatiently, "Are you kidding me?"

"Do not."

But facing Lilith's questioning, Ornia remained quite calm. She just said softly:
"I don't know where they are, but I know that Lady Aisha will definitely hide Carlos and the others in the Ash family's territory."

The Ash family, that is the family of Lady Aisha and her brother Arsen in the town guard. And this is also the only family in the whole town. The surname "Ash" is a symbol of their glory and glorious past, and it is also the proof that they have ruled this land for generations.

Of course, the original Ash family lived in a castle.

But after the three "guardians" came to the town, the castle was occupied by them, and the Ash family had to move out of the castle and settle in other parts of the town.

The three "guardians" have now been killed, and the strongest fighting force in the town is the blood servants who surrender to the vampires. As the only family in the town, the Ash family has previously won over most of the blood servants by virtue of their status as "former ruler" and "relative of the current ruler".

And since Madam Aisha wanted to hide Carlos and others, she would definitely hide them in the Ash family's territory, which is now the safest place in the entire town.

"It better be this way."

Lilith clicked her tongue, "Where is the Ash family's territory?"

"There."

Ornia stretched out her hand and pointed to the north of the town.

There is a group of buildings there that are obviously different from other buildings. Although it is not as good as a castle, it is already considered "grand and majestic" compared to other buildings in the town. There is even a wall around it to isolate it from the outside world.
-
clap clap clap!
Mrs. Aisha, who was dressed elegantly, walked up the wooden stairs and came to the basement holding a candle with a dim flame. She looked around for a long time like a guilty thief, and finally walked through the basement corridor and came to a closed door.

Crunch!

She pushed the door open and there was deep darkness behind it.

And in the darkness, a pair of blood-red eyes as big as copper bells suddenly opened, making Aisha almost scream in fear.

Arsen saw his sister's appearance and quickly spoke to comfort her:

"Elsa, it's me!"

With the help of the weak candlelight, Aisha saw Arsen emerging from the darkness, and also saw the owner of those blood-red eyes.

It was an extremely strong saber-toothed tiger with two sharp teeth protruding from its lower jaw!
Aisha immediately recognized the saber-toothed tiger. It was a superb beast tamed by the previous "Guardian". Its strength was even greater than that of Arsen and his blood servants! With its participation, the success rate of this operation would undoubtedly be greatly improved.

Keisha did not feel happy or relieved, but asked with some concern:

"You brought it here too, what about Carlos?"

This saber-toothed tiger was tamed by the Guardian, but the Guardian himself looked down on the saber-toothed tiger's strength. Instead, he gave it to Carlos as a reward, making it a guard for the still young Carlos.

But now that Arsen has brought this saber-toothed tiger to the castle, doesn't that mean Carlos is left unprotected?
Arsen frowned at his sister's soft-heartedness, but still explained in a comforting manner:
"It doesn't matter. After all, Carlos has the blood of the vampires, and his strength is not bad. What's more, there is no danger in the town. Others don't even know where Carlos is. It doesn't matter whether Carlos is protected or not."

Madam Aisha was still a little hesitant and said worriedly:

"Then Carlos..."

"All right!"

Arsen said impatiently: "The only danger to the town now is the castle. Only if we succeed and take back the castle, Carlos can be truly safe! Compared to worrying about Carlos, how about what I asked you to do?"

Lady Aisha looked a little hesitant, but still answered in a low voice:

"Everything was done according to your request, but will it really work? I left Ornia in the room, but things seemed to be different from what we thought. That person didn't kill her. Was our plan exposed?"

"impossible!"

Arsen said in a deep voice, "Our plan is so covert, how could they possibly discover it? And even if they do, what will happen? After all, she is alone!"

Lady Aisha was still a little hesitant:

"But……"

"No buts."

Arsen frowned and interrupted her, saying bluntly, "As long as you follow my instructions strictly, there will be no problems with tonight's operation, understand? You don't have to worry about Carlos, I hid him in a place where no one knows, it's very safe."

Lady Aisha nodded silently. It had come to this point and she had no way out.

"Then I'll go up and take a look first, and you guys can follow me later." Mrs. Aisha gave this instruction and turned to leave, walking towards the stairs to the basement to prevent anyone from noticing Arsen and the others' arrival.

"Master Arsen."

A young man came forward and asked in a low voice: "I always feel uneasy. How about calling Brother Dill..."

Arsen's expression turned cold, and he said coldly:
"Why did you mention him? Can't we accomplish anything without him? Dill is a coward. It's not like I didn't take the initiative to look for him. Didn't you see the result?"

"But Brother Dier is..."

"enough!"

Arsen interrupted the chattering young man with a sharp voice:
"There are so many of us here, what difference does it make whether he's here or not? If you're scared, just stay here and don't move. You won't be needed in the battle later!"

"..."

The young man fell silent and quietly retreated back into the crowd.

Yes, there is nothing to be afraid of.

There were thirty-two guards in the town, and twenty-one of them were here.

Add in the saber-toothed tiger guarding Carlos, that's 22 to 1!

How could we lose with such a huge advantage?
As long as they win, the Ash family will return to their position of ruler, and they will all be the dragon's followers!
Now that it has come to this, how can I really give up?

Just then, a flickering fire suddenly appeared above the basement stairs. It was Mrs. Elsa signaling them.

"go!"

Arsen's eyes flickered as he spoke in a deep voice.

Whether the Ash family can become great again depends on whether their trip goes smoothly this time. No matter what, success or failure depends on this one move!
"right here."

Olnia pointed to the walled house below and said softly:
"This is the territory of the Ash family. Carlos and the others should be hiding here." Lilith looked at the house below, which could be called a 'villa' compared to other wooden and stone houses in the town, and frowned slightly:
"Somewhat something is wrong."

Olnia blinked and looked up in confusion.

Lilith frowned and asked:
"Didn't you say this is the safest place?"

Olnia nodded and explained in a low voice:
"A large part of the town guards have been recruited by the Ash family. They and their families live near the Ash family's territory. The Ash family provides them with a good life, and they have to work for the Ash family. So this is also the safest place in the entire town except for the castle. Is there any problem?"

A hint of doubt flashed in Lilith's eyes:
"But there isn't a single blood servant here. Are you sure you're in the right place?"

She didn't think that Olnia was lying to her. After all, she had no reason to lie to her, and there was no benefit for her to do so. What's more, she could tell at a glance whether Olnia was lying or not.

"Eh?"

Olnia was stunned for a moment, and didn't understand what was going on for a while, but she soon reacted and exclaimed:
"They're going to the castle!"

Lilith immediately remembered Aleka's reminder - the Ash family might take the opportunity to launch a sneak attack.

The current situation is exactly proving this statement true. We are not at home in the middle of the night. It is impossible that we are going fishing together, right?

"How dare they." Lilith's expression was amusing. Mortals were always selfish. Why did they think they could kill vampires with the power bestowed by them?
"Should we go back?"

Olnia said nervously.

"Go back? Why go back?"

Lilith raised the corners of her mouth slightly and said with a smile:

"We don't need to worry about the castle. What we need to do now is to complete the task he assigned to us as soon as possible."

Ornia lowered her head silently, not knowing what she was thinking.

But at this moment, she suddenly realized that someone was secretly observing her. It was an instinctive spiritual warning from the Beyonder.

Although Ornia didn't know what a Beyonder was, or what spirituality was, she still subconsciously looked in the direction of the sight she sensed. Then she found that on the second floor of the Ash family's luxurious "villa", a young man with brilliant blond hair was standing in front of an open window, looking at the two people in the air with a puzzled expression.

Ornia stretched out her hand and immediately said:
"There, that's Carlos!"

Lilith also spotted Carlos standing in front of the window, and immediately flapped her bat wings and dived towards the second-floor window. Even though she was carrying the burden of Ornia, Ornia was just a young girl, and she was not heavy. In addition, Lilith was now a Sequence 6 vampire, and her extraordinary ability had been greatly enhanced.

Therefore, her speed increased instead of decreasing compared to before. In almost the blink of an eye, she swooped down from the sky to the window on the second floor of the villa.

"what!"

Carlos was obviously startled by the two people flying towards his face, and he fell to the ground with a scream.

"Can I take care of this?"

Lilith had just landed on the window when Ornia in her arms suddenly asked softly.

Lilith looked at Ornia with some surprise, loosened her arms around the silver-haired girl, and said indifferently:
"ASAP."

"Will do."

Ornia landed lightly on the ground, whispered a word, and then took the initiative to walk towards Carlos.

"Olnia, why is it you?"

Carlos was so frightened that he fell to the ground. When he saw the face of the little silver-haired girl, his expression suddenly became extremely surprised. "What are you doing here? And how can you fly? You obviously didn't inherit the blood of the great vampires. How did you do it?"

Facing the silver-haired girl who was approaching step by step, Carlos was not afraid, but instead shouted at her:
"Forget it, none of this matters. No matter how you did it, you shouldn't have trespassed into my room! Damn you, you lowly bastard, just like your bastard mother, you have tainted the bloodline of the Ash family, how dare you…"

puff!
Ornia walked up to Carlos without saying a word, and the tip of her nails began to extend rapidly, piercing Carlos' heart without hesitation.

Carlos' words came to an abrupt halt. He lowered his head and stared at his pierced chest. He opened his mouth wide, as if trying to make a sound. Ornia could even guess what he wanted to say.

It's nothing more than insulting words like "bastard", and it's not the first time anyway.

Snapped!
Ornia withdrew her hand directly.

Her fair, thin arms were covered in blood, and in her palms she held a blood-red heart that was beating weakly.

Carlos' cheeks turned extremely pale, but he was still alive. Even if he was just an underage vampire, he was a truly extraordinary creature, and his vitality was much stronger than that of an ordinary person.

Even with just a fatal wound, vampires would die much slower than ordinary people.

Ornia supported the shaky Carlos with one hand, handed him his heart, and whispered:
"You see, your heart is not that different from your mother's, right?"

"It's all the same, fragile."

Haw!

Ornia crushed the heart in her hand, blood, mucous membrane, and fragments splattered everywhere, and the remaining part slowly dripped from her palm.

Carlos finally couldn't make any sound, and his bloodshot eyes gradually lost focus.

boom!
Ornia let go of Carlos' body and let it fall to the ground.

She slowly walked back to Lilith and smiled brightly:

"Thank you."

Lilith looked at the little girl's bloody right hand, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, and she smiled and said:
"well done."

It was clearly her first time to kill someone, but she managed to remain calm, and her scheming and cunning were totally inconsistent with her age... It is not difficult to guess that Ornia must have had a very difficult experience in the past.

But Lilith didn't care about Ornia's past, she just felt happy.

At this moment, there were rapid footsteps outside the door.

"boom!"

A male servant suddenly pushed open the door and was stunned for a moment when he saw the two women standing in the room. Then he saw Carlos's body and his pupils shrank sharply:
"Master Carlos!"

"I'll leave the rest to you, is that ok?"

Lilith said lazily.

"it is good."

Ornia nodded silently, the nails of her hands began to extend outward, and she walked towards the servant silently.

No one in this villa can be left alive.
