Chapter 500: Darkness of the Rainfall (1)



Chapter 500: Darkness of the Rainfall (1)

As the local nobles of the Kingdom of Lensa, the Dandelion Family actually moves faster than Rand's people in the kingdom.

Because they don't have to take shortcuts or avoid passes, they can just drive their carriages all the way.

It's just that the road is slippery on rainy nights and the carriage can't go too fast.

Rand's special forces met the Dandelion family on this rainy night.

Rand's people are in the dark, and the Dandelion family is in the light.

Originally, this group of people didn't intend to care. They were about to retreat back to the Duke of Moon Phase's territory. What the Dandelion Family wanted to do had little to do with them.

But the curtains of the carriage fluttered in the rain, allowing Ranta to recognize who was sitting in the carriage.

The eldest son of Earl Dandelion.

This made Ranta ask the senior professionals of the special operations force to stop the carriage without hesitation.

A moonless, rainy night.

The night rain is pouring heavily.

"I'm Ranta." Ranta introduced himself in a low voice.

In fact, everyone knows him.

The appearance of Earl Dandelion's eldest son here means that Earl Dandelion has judged that the royal city is no longer safe? What is the specific situation, Ranta needs to know.

Ranta received the order to evacuate, but that didn't mean he had no authority to judge and solve the problem on his own.

As a missionary who can reach the "Mother Goddess Form" and return to normal, Ranta is currently the leader of this evacuation team. He is responsible for this team, and he must ensure that this evacuation will not cause greater damage to the hideout...and to the sanctuary.

The old butler of the Dandelion family nodded to Ranta.

Ranta and his partner are quite famous in the Kingdom of Lunsa. They were the first group of disseminators of the Holy Book of Health when it was first introduced to the Kingdom of Lunsa.

It played a very important initial role in fighting against the poison of the dead.

Later, these two people became ambassadors to the royal city of Lunsa.

"You are..." Ranta asked.

"According to the clan leader's judgment, the Royal City of Lunsa is now extremely dangerous. Let us set off to flee the Kingdom of Lunsa." The old butler whispered, "As for Count Dandelion himself, he will stay in the Royal City."

The old butler didn't hide anything.

Ranta curled his lips. He basically knew how Count Dandelion judged the danger of the royal city.

After all, all of Rand's people fled the royal city.

But they couldn't disguise themselves any further. The old butler, their top superior, was watching them all the time, and they were leaving in a hurry, so they would definitely be discovered.

Lord Rand did not deliberately ask them to hide their whereabouts.

"Then let's go together." Lanta said, "When we get to the Dukedom of the Moon Phase, Lord Rand will protect your safety."

The old butler shook his head: "We are not going to the Duke of Yuexiang's territory."

Ranta was stunned: "Ah? Where are you going?"

"The Kingdom of Bolen." The old butler gave the answer.

The reason is simple.

Now, even the Duke of the Moon Phase finds this a difficult problem. If they go to the Duke of the Moon Phase's territory, Duke of the Moon Phase Rand may not be able to protect them.

Duke Rand of the Moon Phase can hardly save himself.

Otherwise, would he need to go through so much trouble to create a shield?

Moreover, if they went to the Dukedom of the Moon Phase, the value of the Dandelion Family would be gone.

Firstly, fleeing from the Royal City of Lunsa would cause great damage to the family's honor. Even if Count Dandelion himself stayed in the Royal City, the Dandelion family would become a laughing stock and the family's prestige would certainly be reduced, which would make it more difficult for the Dandelion family to survive in the Kingdom of Lunsa.

Secondly, if they go to the Dukedom of the Moon Phase, the Dandelion Family’s role as a shield for Rand will be completely gone, and they may be abandoned at any time.

Instead, head to the Kingdom of Bolen.

Although he could not escape the stigma of being a fugitive, his role as a shield for Rand increased.

Before all members of the Dandelion family are captured, it will be difficult for the vampires to suspect Rand. At that time, Rand will continue to support the Dandelion family for both emotional and logical reasons.

The Dandelion Family has already witnessed Rand's strength.

As long as they can continue to gain Rand's support, the Dandelion Family will be able to revive sooner or later unless they are directly destroyed.

After all, Rand definitely needs a spokesperson who can reach out to the Kingdom of Lensa, right?

It is not easy to get a seat in the Senate of the Kingdom of Lensa, and Rand will always need the Dandelion Family when the time comes.

Ranta was not stupid. When he heard the old butler's answer, he immediately figured out what was going on.

He looked at the old butler with some surprise. It turned out that the Dandelion Earl was really capable.

"Do you have channels in the Kingdom of Bolen?" Ranta has already signaled the special forces to set off again and not waste any more time.

"I used to be in the smuggling business."

"We will go with you." Ranta made the decision.

This is not disobedience, but the right to make independent decisions outside.

Those of them who are independent and capable have the right to make their own decisions in emergencies.

In a sense, it can be said that the general is not subject to military orders when he is abroad.

Rand was far away in the Dukedom of the Moon Phase, and it was impossible for him to make judgments on behalf of the staff who were carrying out tasks outside.

"Then hurry up, the vampire may catch up with us at any time." Ranta said seriously.

Ranta's reason for making the decision was simple.

If the Dandelion Family does not stay in the Royal City of Lensa to fight against the vampires, the vampires will soon catch up with them.

They tried their best to cover up their tracks, but they could not escape the pursuit of a large number of powerful vampires.

By then, the clues will point to the Duke of the Moon Phase.

And since all the people of the Dandelion Family are planning to go to the Kingdom of Bolen, if they stay together, not only will they not drag down the Duke of Moon Phase, but staying together can also increase their chances of survival.

Ranta and his group set off immediately, but their direction was changed to the Kingdom of Bolun.

Moonless night.

Dark clouds blocked out the moonlight and the stars.

The sky was as black as if stained with ink. Everything around was swallowed up by the deep black. Even the lights on the carriage became hazy and dim.

The heavy rain and thunder made it difficult to fall asleep.

Well, not really.

In his previous life, rainstorms and thunder were just sleep-aiding interludes for Rand.

But Rand had a hard time falling asleep tonight.

Rand climbed out of bed, and Ellie was awakened by Rand's movement and also half sat up.

Rand lit the oil lamp, and the dim light illuminated Ellie's delicate body.

"What's wrong?" Ellie rubbed her eyes and said. Ellie's body now has graceful curves. Although she is still not as good as Olenna or her sister, she has grown up. It's just that Rand has no intention of watching it now.

"I'm worried." Rand said, "I'm thinking about sending someone to pick them up."

As Ellie and Rand talked, Elsa and Olenna, who were sleeping in the small bed next to them, were also awakened.

"Then let's act now." Ellie didn't ask any more questions. As long as Rand needed her, she would support Rand's choice without hesitation.

“You might encounter the Blue King in the wild,” Olenna said.

"Well, I'll invite Ms. Karin to join us." Since Ellie expressed her support directly without any hesitation, Rand didn't think about it anymore and decided to set off directly.

Next came Rand's personal guards.

Although night is a time for rest, these Rand's personal guards will obviously not refuse their lord's order to go to war.

Soon, in just an hour, Rand, the higher-ups in the hideout, Karin, and Rand's personal guards set off.

A lightless rainy night.

Horse hooves trampled through the rain.

It was a long rain.

It lasted at least a day and a night and it's not over yet.

But fortunately, we are about to enter the territory of the Kingdom of Bolen.

"It seems that they can't go very fast under the circumstances." The old butler said with narrowed eyes.

The mainstream mode of transportation in this world is still horses.

It’s not that even the most senior professionals can’t outrun a horse.

In fact, elite professionals can outrun horses in a short time.

It’s just that both people and horses get tired.

In normal traffic, strong people don’t like to run alone.

And strong people are very rare.

And if you are in an emergency.

You can change horses every time you run a certain distance, but people will always get tired and it is impossible to keep running.

Therefore, horse-drawn carriages are still the mainstream mode of transportation.

Now it seems possible to get rid of it.

It's still a rainy night tonight.

The continuous heavy rain has made the roads somewhat unsuitable for horse-drawn carriages.

The group had to slow down their horses again and again.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Fortunately, heavy rain will also wash away the traces of the carriage.

This made everyone feel much better.

Even the groaning of the trees and the pounding of the rain against the carriage seemed to be in harmony.

Unfortunately, the vampire still caught up.

A sharp arrow pierced through the rain and pierced the horse's throat.

The horses neighed and fell to the ground.

The carriage also overturned.

"Enemy attack!" the old butler roared.

All the combatants gripped their weapons tightly.

In the rain.

The scarlet eyes looked ferocious under the dim, swaying lantern.

"You're really good at running." The leading vampire sneered, "It's a pity that it ends here."

There was no response.

A Rand Special Operations Force wizard fired a deep blue serve that hit the vampire leader directly in the face.

Then it was broken by the shining one-handed sword.

The bursting air currents blew the rain into a mess and made it impossible to open one's eyes.

The shield guard of the special operations force pulled out the shield from behind, held it in his hand, and rushed towards the vampire under the rain.

The old butler also tightened his grip on his weapon.

As for why not responding to the vampire's words to delay time.

That naturally means that he suspects that the vampires have follow-up reinforcements, and it has obviously taken a lot of energy for the vampires to catch up. Ranta does not intend to waste time dealing with these vampires and other enemies who are not sure whether they are vampires.

The heavy rain lasted for a whole day and night, and it got heavier tonight.

The raindrops were almost dense enough to block out vision.

On a dark rainy night, humans can only rely on the lanterns around the carriage for lighting.

And vampires will have a considerable advantage.

Fortunately, the old butler is indeed very powerful, and the Rand Special Operations Force is no pushover either.

The situation was deadlocked for a while.

The sound of weapons clashing continued to ring out.

If there is still anyone who is willing to treat this rainstorm as a symphony.

Then the clash of weapons is like someone composing music with a tuning fork.

Unfortunately, no one seems to have this idea now.

Some humans or vampires have already fallen.

The combat-capable members of the Dandelion family had already joined the battle, while the women and children who had no combat capability could only stare at the rain in confusion.

It was so dark that ordinary people's eyes could not see the content of this bloody battle through the rain and the night.

Even the smell of blood and screams were diluted by the rain.

Shadows are vague under the night.

The number of vampires is increasing, obviously, vampires are constantly coming.

"We can't go on like this." Ranta used his weapon to block a vampire's claws, and then killed the enemy with the help of the nascent missionaries of the Torch Church.

Take a short breath.

"Find a way to let some people retreat first, and we will cover their retreat." The Novice Missionaries also knew that if they continued like this, the entire army would most likely be wiped out.

There are too many vampires, and the night is still the vampires' home turf.

Although they should be very tired in theory.

But the special operations forces have also been on edge for a long time.

They don't have it easy either.

The same is true for the old butler.

The old butler is a strong man, but he is also quite old.

"Then let me do it." Ranta said.

"What nonsense are you talking about? What's your level? How many vampires can you stop?" The Novice missionary sneered.

"Don't we still have a trump card?" Ranta pulled his collar.

Ever since Ranta realized that he was no longer a cultist hated by everyone, but a member of the Church of the Goddess of Harvest and Health who could show his face in public and even be respected, he dressed himself appropriately.

The price of dressing appropriately and civilly is not small. For example, the collars are tight, which makes strenuous exercise inconvenient, and the clothes are not cheap.

Fortunately, I have worked hard for Lord Rand over the past few years and have saved a lot of wages.

Lord Rand never treats unfairly those who work hard for him.

In fact, Ranta felt that the wages were too high. If it weren't for Rand, he might have starved to death, or frozen to death, or been conscripted to consume the enemy's arrows and stones.

What is wages? To be honest, many believers and staff of the Holy Land are worried that Rand will go bankrupt because of paying too much wages.

But this has never happened.

I don’t know how Lord Rand managed to come up with so much money.

Ranta did study sanctuary economics, but he really couldn't understand it, and in the end he had a hard time passing the exam.

I can only say that I probably won’t pass the test if I take it again.

Fortunately, he is not completely useless.

He should be the first one, besides Lord Cers, to learn to use the power that Lord Rand called "forbidden".

Although Ranta doesn't think there are any taboos.

For example, now he can use this "taboo" to take effect.

Indeed, if you use this kind of power, you may never be able to change back.

And even if he used the power of the Mother Goddess, he would definitely not be able to defeat so many vampires.

But Ranta still feels fortunate.

How could there be such a good thing in this world? As long as you are willing to pay the price of your life, you can gain power?

This kind of thing is as beautiful as a dream.

How many people in this world die of starvation, freezing, or bullying?

Do you think they would be unwilling to sacrifice their lives in exchange for power?

They can't do it.

But he can do it.

"Hahahaha." Ranta pushed away his partner who was trying to grab him.

The body began to twist.

"Hello... I am Ranta, a missionary of the Church of Harvest and Health." The speaker was a twisted, malicious demon covered with tentacles.

Just as Rand judged, the world has become increasingly influenced by God.

So this time, Ranta's use of power is more twisted, crazy, and irrational.
