She didn't know why the vampire suddenly asked her this question, but she still answered respectfully: "If the lady says it's time to die, then it's time to die."
"Heh." The woman laughed with an ambiguous tone and said softly, "Humans are always greedy."
She dropped the knife in her hand, walked to Mary's side, and used her bloody fingertips to help her tidy up her hair. She said with a smile: "Mary, do you know? People in this world always hate and resist vampires, but at the same time they envy their longevity and youthful looks."
Mary felt the sticky blood hanging on her hair and her nose was filled with the smell of blood, but she didn't dare to move.
She suppressed her inner trembling and tried to sound as normal as possible: "Madam is absolutely right. They all want to replace you, but no one can compare to you."
Yu Li stared at her face and slowly began to smile: "You really know how to talk."
She took back her hand and said lazily:
“But that’s not the case.”
"Once she becomes a vampire, her state of mind will be completely different. Her greedy desires will never end. After all, humans are humans and vampires are vampires. How can she go back to the way she was before?"
Hearing this, Mary's breathing stagnated, her pupils trembled slightly, and she quickly lowered her eyes to hide her loss of composure.
Yu Li took out a handkerchief and wiped the blood off her body carefully, frowning and saying with disdain, "I'm going to take a shower. You and Manager Wang can finish dealing with this before you go to work on the banquet."
"Yes, ma'am."
Only after the woman went upstairs did Mary relax a little. She looked at the corpse on the ground with sadness in her eyes, and looked at the butler Wang beside her.
"Butler Wang." She called in a low voice.
The other party turned his head after hearing this, the smile on his face still unchanged: "What's wrong?"
Seeing this, a trace of loss flashed across Mary's eyes.
"nothing."
She is the only normal person in this manor now.

As the night progresses, the players can sense that the number of servants around them increases significantly.
These servants were almost inseparable from them, following them closely wherever they went.
Under the surveillance of NPCs, players cannot do anything at all and can only wait according to their character settings.
When the banquet was about to begin, several people changed into formal attire and were brought to the hall by Manager Wang.
At the gate, Manager Wang handed them a mask and said with a smile, "The theme of this party is a masked party. You can wear this first."
Wu Bei took the mask and asked, "When will Youyou come?"
"The lady will appear at the beginning of the banquet. Please be patient and wait."
Hearing this, several people looked at each other, then put on masks and stepped into the hall.
Although it was a banquet, there were only a dozen or so people in the hall, perhaps because it hadn't officially started yet.
She quickly glanced at the people attending the party and looked around.
What is certain now is that these are definitely not normal guests.
The waiter came over with a glass of wine and handed it to her.
Mu Chengsi took it, and Yixian beside him came over and said, "It feels like there are not enough people."
“Yeah.” Mu Chengsi said casually, pulling the corners of his mouth, it was hard to tell whether his tone was envy or jealousy, “I don’t know if it’s because the place is too big that it seems to be sparsely populated, Shen Youyou’s family is really rich.”
Yixian was stunned when she heard Mu Chengsi speak like this out of the blue, and then she realized that the other party had already brought in his character.
So fast.
She exclaimed inwardly, laughed twice and continued: “Yes, haven’t you always known that Shen Youyou’s family is rich?”
Mu Chengsi curled his lips and hummed perfunctorily, then looked around: "Where's Jiang Xi?"
She looked around at the same time, but when she saw a familiar figure appear at the dessert table, she couldn't hold back. Her face was slightly stiff, and she said with a twitch of her mouth: "Oh, so you're eating..."
No, this is too relaxed. I actually started eating in the dungeon!
Is this the calmness of a son of destiny?
It would be a lie for Mu Chengsi to say she wasn't envious. She also wanted this kind of skill.
Her eyes subconsciously searched for Bai Jingmo's figure again. They clearly came in together, but in just half a moment, the man disappeared.
"Have you seen Bai Jingmo?" Mu Chengsi asked Yixian beside him.
"Ah? He was there just now..." Yixian said as she turned her head, but when she saw that there was no one there, the rest of her words were stuck in her throat. She could only shake her head helplessly: "I didn't see it either."
She joked, "Maybe he couldn't wait to see Youyou, so he went to find her by himself."
“…”
Mu Chengsi found it difficult to laugh. She still hadn't fully understood what was going on with Bai Jingmo, and now he was gone.
Not long after, a familiar voice was heard not far away.
"Good evening, everyone."
I saw Manager Wang standing on the stage holding a microphone, with a proper smile on his face, "Welcome all guests to our banquet tonight."
Although he said welcome everyone, his eyes were always fixed on a few players. His usually gentle and polite voice now seemed full of malice.
"We have invited several of Miss Shen's classmates to this banquet,"
As soon as the words fell, the other "guests" present suddenly turned their heads and looked over. More than a dozen pairs of eyes were staring at the players.
They all wore masks on their faces, with perfect smiles on their lips and eyes that never showed any emotion. They looked like soulless puppets, weird and creepy.
It makes people feel a chill down their spine.
Mu Chengsi's expression gradually became serious, and he looked at Wu Bei who was not far away.
