When Jack heard the report and came to the room where the prisoners were held, he looked at the opened curtain and the soldiers who tortured the prisoners.Jack stared blankly at the door, unable to believe it.

"Jack, I didn't expect that there are so many hidden in the manor"

Jack strode forward and punched Volp under the chin: "What are you doing!!! Volp, do you know that you are dealing with prisoners privately?!"

Looking at the maids who had been reduced to ashes and could no longer be saved, and died crying in despair, Jack's eyes turned red.

"Captive?!" Volpe stabilized his body, touched his chin and looked at the comrade who was still fighting side by side with him in disbelief. He never thought that he would say such words: "Jack! Look! What are these things! They're not people!"

The two of them never thought that this partner, who had always stood firmly with him, would have such a big difference in thinking on this matter!

Volpe believes that as long as it is a monster, everyone deserves to die!

But Jack confirmed that they were powerless to resist, and they should not raise their butcher knives to this group of defenseless and defenseless people!

For such an idea, Volpe felt simply ridiculous.Because if these monsters are not dealt with now, should they be raised, or even released to eat people? !

"Look, Jack! We killed their king! They look cowardly and pitiful at this moment, but they will never forget today! One day, the seeds of hatred will burst out!"

The soldiers couldn't help but feel that what Volpe said was very correct. When they looked at the blood descendants, their eyes gradually turned cold.

Even Jack hesitated slightly.But when his eyes turned to those blood descendants who kept shaking their heads and crying, the softest part of his heart was touched.

They didn't take up arms, and the bloodborn who fought with them in that hall just wanted to live

Because I don't know what I did wrong, I don't understand why I have to be killed

"Jack! Don't forget that the blood you killed today is much better than me! The moment you raised the butcher knife! Didn't you realize it?!" Walp said angrily.

"I've killed enough! Volpe, do we have to slaughter the people there every time we go? After killing the people in the manor, go to kill the people outside, no matter what they are, no matter what their reasons are, as long as they are infected Blood poisoning, we have to kill cleanly, but can we kill cleanly! Hatred cannot be washed away by killing! Blood will only make the flames of hatred grow stronger! We are the Knights of the Dawn (some soldiers are very surprised), not Punish the heretic referee!" At this point, Jack stood alone in front of the soldiers and Volp, covering the blood descendants behind the door in his back: "I insist on my point of view! Volp! As long as they are worthy of pity at this moment, I am willing to give them a generosity! I believe that people will change. Bandits with blood and crime on their hands can become Templars, so the blood-eating rats should also have a chance to be redeemed !!"

This insistence on faith may move some soldiers.Their cold eyes couldn't help softening again, and hesitation began to appear in their hearts.

But there are also some soldiers, anger ignited in their eyes. Many of them had the same experience as Hunter, or their best friends died at the hands of Scarlet Huntress.Their hatred of bloodborn is unforgettable.The words "redeeming the blood" made them sound extremely harsh!

"Jack! You are protecting people! Not demons!"

"Volp, people and monsters may not be distinguished by their appearance. Look at their yearning and expectations for hope! I won't allow anyone to snuff them out!"

"It's so righteous!" Volpe was trembling with anger: "Could it be that we all did something wrong today?!"

"There is no right or wrong in this matter, and we raised the knife not because of who is right and who is wrong." Jack closed his eyes, in great pain.I remembered many of my past. : "Sometimes we take up the sword, just to keep more people alive, not to let everyone die!"

"You're always the good old man, Jack, I've had enough!"

The contradictions became more and more irreconcilable, and in the end they could only be resolved with fists.

Faced with the different opinions of the two leaders, the soldiers did not know what to do.

But fortunately, this incident finally alarmed the lord, and the decision was finally made by the lord. The snow has melted, even the undead have to work for me!!"

As for how to deal with it in the future?Were these captives harboring hatred?Will these captives take up arms one day?Can even Anthony's medicine be developed immediately?

Regarding these questions, the lord lord played with the ancient gold coins in his hand, and chuckled: "That is something you should consider?! Do your job well!"

(Those gold coins were not found in the Black Pearl Manor, but the most precious ones in the necropolis. Because of their preciousness and the influence of Baron Collor's hobby, George kept them in his pocket. Anthony's laboratory, after these gold coins 'eat' the ancient gold coins brought back from the Wind City on the desk strangely, he kept these gold coins with him all the time. Lorna has been I feel that these gold coins look exactly the same as the ones placed together with the fragments of the 'Immortal Life and Rebirth' scroll. But this little stutterer didn't tell George about it.)

In the end, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Volpe tilted his head, wiped his tears, and finally said nothing.

After George shook his head, he didn't stop here.The gold coins flew up and down between his fingers, like his restless interest.He called a group of soldiers and continued to follow Anthony to the east area of ​​the manor castle.

For Volpe's grievances, he could not comfort him.But he didn't feel the slightest bit of blame in his heart.

He could see that many people had a deep-rooted hatred for any monster because of their past experiences.I also know the despair and grievances of many blood descendants in this manor. Many of them even thought that they just had a strange disease.

But in war, what is often impossible to ask for is the kindness to the innocent.

After the war, soldiers often vent their emotions crazily, or hatred, or the long-suppressed anger.

Not to mention, the losers of the war are not only a group of monsters, but also a group of upper-class people. Almost all blood descendants can be regarded as real upper-class people.Including those maids, in the eyes of commoners in various territories, servants in castles are often the best and most advanced professions.

This gave many soldiers who had been victimized by monsters and oppressed by nobles a better reason to raise their butcher knives.

However, after the soldiers rushed into this prosperous manor, they were not dazzled by the victory, burned, killed and looted. It can be said that the military discipline is good.In the face of these 'monsters', most people did not raise their knives and guns because they had a 'reasonable reason', and abused them wantonly, which is even more commendable.

but the contradiction exists

Even if someone knows the stories of these blood-borns, I am afraid it will be the same

Looking at the beautiful scenery outside the window of the cloister, George temporarily let go of the things in his heart, talked with Anthony, and started walking.

The Castle of Black Pearl Manor is designed in a round shape, and the sturdy and luxurious four-sided building acts as its outer wall.In the entire manor castle, there are no low buildings at all, just like a huge square cake.No matter which room has excellent lighting, you can see the beautiful scenery in the distance by opening the window casually.

To the north is the magnificent, deep forest and mountains covered with a piece of silver, to the east and south is the beautiful Black Lake and the Danube River, surrounded by fertile soil, fertile fields, and horse farms, and farther away, there are wineries and vineyards. It is the vast plains and hunting grounds.Every autumn, the lords who are lucky enough to be invited here can enjoy the hunting ground.

If it is a vacation, this is probably the best area in the Northern Territory.

But if you look at it by the standards of a fortress, it is indeed too substandard

Indeed, Black Pearl does not need a fortress, because the entire western region is its strong city wall, and Windsong City is its gatekeeper.

But often, no matter how strong the fortress is, it will be breached from the inside. When disaster strikes and the Kuroshio army is surrounded, this place is only suitable for signing the surrender contract

George, who was walking in the corridor, withdrew his gaze looking into the distance, while Anthony was already standing in front of the tall and wide gate at the end.

"There are seven or eight places where books are collected in the manor. After I came in with the mercenaries, I searched for a long time-this place will definitely be the library with the most complete collection of books in the entire valley. Here, I even I found the complete 'Sacred Book of Asylum'! There may be all the truths recorded!" Anthony stood at the door, waved to George, and then walked in through the crack of the door.

Looking at Anthony's actions and the somewhat dark crack in the door, George suddenly understood that there were other people inside besides the soldiers.

He told the guards around him to open the door more slowly, and then walked towards the door.

When he was at the door, he could hear footsteps and voices inside. After entering, his vision became slightly dimmed, and many areas were even black and white in his eyes.

This large library was originally well-lit. When the servants tended the curtains, they often had to erect long ladders.However, the thick curtains have been drawn at this time. After all, the people hiding here don't like things like sunlight very much.

Garvey and Lorna were talking with some strangers dressed as scholars. Many apprentices and servants sat quietly on their seats, watching the soldiers coming and going.Occasionally, the soldier would look over coldly, and some blood descendants would come down in horror.

It seems that Anthony and others who came here earlier should have appeased these blood descendants.But not all people who have the same thoughts and attitudes as Anthony and others

George turned his gaze to those unfamiliar scholars, and found that most of these guys with excited expressions in their eyes were not blood descendants.

However, those anthropologists are so excited, perhaps can be attributed to academic discussions.Blood scholars are brain circuits, which are the same as nerds like Anthony.

"These people have been studying 'Blood Poison' for a long time. Including plague and corruption, they have also sorted out many important documents." Anthony's eyes were radiant, and he stroked the book on the table. Books and documents are like stroking my own children: "Based on their research, I am confident that I can develop a potion that can free many people from the slavery of demons—as long as the soul is not dedicated to the demons, it will be There is a solution."
