Chapter 0553: Inside the Banquet Hall
When Grimm stepped out of the black carriage, the banquet in the Rose Manor had already started for a long time.
Because he came in a hurry, Grimm had no time to make more arrangements, so he could only rent a four-wheeled carriage in a nearby city to rush to the Rose Manor.
Instead of wearing the eye-catching wizard robe, Grimm also changed his outfit, wearing a wig, a pair of gold-rimmed glasses on his nose, and a black double-breasted long dress. Coupled with his black hair and black pupils, he was gentle and elegant, but also had a trace of dignity and arrogance that ordinary people could hardly detect.
It happened too suddenly!
Although he had already told Mary not to get too close to Lester, she only needed to collect some simple intelligence about him from the periphery. But obviously Mary did not do as he told her.
The existence of blood shackles made Mary stay at the level of level 1 elite for too "long". In particular, Grimm's smooth promotion to level 2 deeply stimulated this competitive female vampire.
Although the two of them were already close lovers, Mary's strong will was still not eradicated. Therefore, she had a passion and motivation far beyond that of ordinary people to hunt Lestat.
But unfortunately, just when Grimm's hunting plan was proceeding in an orderly manner, a terrible news came back.
That Lestat had actually advanced to level 2 and became a terrible vampire count.
This... was obviously far beyond the scope of the original hunting plan!
If a level 2 vampire kills recklessly, it will take less than a month to raise a servant army composed of blood slaves and derivatives. And if a vampire family goes all out, it can turn the entire central part of the continent into a world of vampires within half a year.
Unfortunately, under the supervision of the Sanditalin Wizard Association, no vampire family dared to be so crazy. If they only produced some descendants or blood slaves in their own territory, no wizard would intervene. But once they extend their tentacles to other people's territories, they will be attacked by all wizards.
What's more, vampires live by sucking the blood of intelligent creatures. If all the people in their territory are turned into blood slaves or derivatives, they will fall into the embarrassing situation of having nothing to eat.
Under the control of these two reasons, all vampire families living in the wizard world live an extremely self-disciplined life and strictly control the number of blood slaves and derivatives in the territory. Because of this, the lives of the people in their territory are almost the same as elsewhere, so there is no large-scale escape due to fear of vampire lords.
But the dormancy of vampires does not mean their weakness!
If a comprehensive assessment can be made, then vampire wizards even occupy a mid-to-upper position among all wizards of the same level.
They may not be the strongest in combat, nor the fastest in running, nor the highest in defense, but... they are the most cunning!
All vampire wizards have common advantages and disadvantages.
The advantages are that it can run fast, can transform into a bat, and is good at hiding. The biggest advantage is its amazing blood-sucking recovery ability.
As for the disadvantage, it is generally recognized that its attack power is weak.
Facing opponents of the same level, vampires generally have weak attack power and can only rely on blood-sucking recovery to slowly wear down the opponent's attack power and defensive witchcraft.
It is precisely because she knows how difficult it is to deal with a level 2 vampire that Mary, driven by her restless vampire instinct, actually wants to sneak up on Lester. And as expected, her actions were of course noticed by the opponent!
After a 5-day chase and fight, Mary, who was affected by her blood instinct, could not use her ability at all and was captured alive by the opponent. After checking the blood in Mary's body, Lester couldn't help but be secretly surprised.
To put it bluntly, this mysterious blood descendant who came out of nowhere has an amazingly good development of his original blood. It is even blunt to say that this level of development has surpassed Lester before his promotion.
This means that the success rate of this defeated and captured foreign blood girl in advancing to the second level is surprisingly high.
The main reason why the other party has not advanced to the second level is still the blood shackles. Now that Lester has advanced to the second level, the upper limit of the blood shackles has been loosened. As long as this mysterious blood girl adjusts for a period of time, she can consider advancing to the next level.
Blood backlash is terrible, but as a vampire family, they also have a lot of means to control this non-pure blood foreigner.
Therefore, Lester did not want to waste Mary, a good blood thug, so he did not execute her on the spot. Instead, he brought her to this rose manor, and planned to take Mary back to the blood castle slowly after finishing the things here.
Time was so urgent that Grimm could not plan slowly, so after getting the news, he could only rush to this rose manor.
Grimm's arrival immediately attracted the attention of the waiter waiting at the door.
To be honest, Grimm's clothes were not very luxurious, and the four-wheeled carriage he rode in was even more inconspicuous among the many luxurious carriages, and even looked a bit shabby.
However, when Grimm stood proudly in front of the manor gate with his hands on the buttons on his chest, the overwhelming momentum made the waiters present immediately realize that a big shot had arrived.
Although Grimm had tried his best to restrain his mental pressure, his words and deeds, even his eyebrows and eyes, still had a domineering aura that could not be concealed by his clothes.
"Sir, I wonder who you are..." The chief waiter who could greet guests at the door also had the status of a peripheral blood slave of the Vick family, which was almost equivalent to the middle-class nobles of the local dignitaries. In an ordinary wizard family, it was also the status of a wizard apprentice.
"Grimm!" Grimm said his name without much words.
The chief waiter in charge of reception not only did not despise the lonely name without even a family title, but became more cautious and respectful.
This is the wizard continent, where wizards have always been respected.
Most of the wizards who have worked hard on their own have only names, not family names. This is in sharp contrast to the wizards trained by those wizard families, but no one dares to despise these wizards.
This visitor is not an ordinary person at first glance, and he has no family name, so the knowledgeable chief waiter immediately realized that this is a wizard who has hidden his identity.
In the entire wizard continent, any manor and castle is welcome to visiting wizards!
Therefore, with a loud announcement, Grimm passed through the tall and spacious gate and entered the banquet hall.
Since it was the time when the band was playing cheerful and relaxing music and many young noble men and women were competing for beauty on the dance floor, Grimm's arrival did not attract anyone's attention.
Only the chief waiter waved to call a servant and whispered a few words in his ear, and the latter hurried to the main building of the manor.
…………
Since coming to this mysterious wizard world, Grimm has also participated in many banquets of various kinds. But they were either half-party and half-transaction banquets held by apprentices, or private banquets held by wizards.
The invited guests were very simple, the purpose was very simple, and the form of the banquet was very simple, even a little boring.
But like in front of us, countless handsome men and beautiful women dressed in bright clothes chasing and playing with each other, indulging in laughter and joy is unique. And this may be the lifestyle that wizards who have given up the path of witchcraft and indulged in carnal desires and secular power like.
Although both are banquet venues, they are also divided into very obvious inner and outer venues.
The inner banquet is mainly held in the banquet hall on the first floor of the three-story building in the center of the manor. Most of the people who can be there are great nobles and top wealthy businessmen from major cities. Of course, there are also countless carefully selected ladies and beautiful girls.
And those middle and low-level nobles can only gather in the lawns, flower halls, botanical gardens and tree-lined avenues near the main building. Here, they can also meet many "big shots" who sneak out of the main hall to hunt for beauties, so wherever Grimm goes, the degree of liveliness and joy is not much less than that of the main hall.
Although Grimm is not a body-refining wizard, he does not have those perverted muscles as hard as iron blocks. But his height of 2 meters still gives him a nearly perfect well-proportioned and muscular body. Coupled with a well-tailored and exquisite dress, it adds a touch of gentle and elegant temperament and demeanor to him.
Along the way, he did not need to deliberately flirt with others, and countless beautiful ladies had already cast their seductive eyes on him. Some bold women even stopped him directly and talked to him enthusiastically with spring on their faces.
Although these vulgar ladies and mature women did not see through Grimm's identity, they could naturally pursue the breath of the strong. Even though Grimm had restrained his overflowing spiritual power, his huge and surging vitality was like a huge magnetic field, naturally attracting these peripheral women.
Grimm glanced and knew what was going on.
Half of these women gathered around him were peripheral blood slaves of the Vick family. They surrounded high-level vampires every day, serving them diligently, and relying on selling their youth and bodies to gain their favor.
And individuals like Grimm, who have strong vitality, are their best hunting targets. Once the prey is seduced to the bed by them, they secretly absorb the other party's vitality while enjoying the bed. This is also the only way for them to accumulate strength and strive to become stronger.
Once their strength breaks through the threshold and they are successfully promoted to the baron, that is, the quasi-witch strength, they can get rid of the status of blood slaves, obtain the official recognition of the family, and become internal members of the Wick family.
Therefore, when they suddenly saw such a fresh and delicious "prey" in the banquet hall, almost half of the peripheral female blood slaves of the Wick family were attracted and gathered around Grimm to show off their charm.
Of course, this is also related to Grimm's concealment of his identity as a level 2 wizard.
Otherwise, even if they were given a hundred courage, they would not dare to seduce and tease a terrible level 2 wizard so blatantly! chapter;
